You better believe that news about this won’t get the hotel any good reviews…

USA Today reports that the Golden Beach Hotel in England kicked out a couple staying there, after learning that the couple gave the hotel a bad review on TripAdvisor.

The couple had pre-paid for their three-night stay. At first, it seems the hotel tried to give them the cold shoulder– they told the coule that the rooms were being recarpeted.

Uh huh. Recarpeting a RESERVED room, while in use.

The second day, the manager showed up, accusing them of the bad review and ordering them to leave the premises. The cops came, and the couple was forced to leave. They asked for a refund, but according to the couple, the hotel refused.

Now that the story is out, the hotel management is mum’s the word. It’s gonna take a LOT more than good PR to get rid of acne like this, a real blot on the hotel’s reputation.

I’d like to know HOW the hotel knew it was them who wrote the review? Did the couple use their real name??

Saw this story on WorldNetDaily. Wow, this guy has got some nerve. Obama skipped over “Creator” as he was quoting the Declaration of Independence!

I’ve tolerated this jerk for quite a while now… this is really too far over the top. IMPEACH!!!! How dare he pick and choose from OUR Declaration of Independence!

Oh dear.

A billboard in South Bend, Indiana, is making big news. Apparently, the local school has a billboard advertisement touting the glories of pubic education. Exactly.

Photo taken from news story site.

Apparently, the billboard got through FOUR proofreaders, all who missed the “typo.” I’ll betcha they were all educated in pubic schools, eh? Or maybe distracted by all the ads for iPads and thermogenic fat burners hot off the presses?

So you tell me, is this just a typo?

A Freudian slip?

Or just another good reason why parents should home school their children?

Hmmmm

Wow! He’ll be 114 years old! He remembers when the quickest way of sending a message to your aunt was how fast you could run… when the government hadn’t regulated and taxed citizens to death… when America was America– land of the free, home of the brave!

I like reading about these old folks who have managed to survive hospital and airline food, raising children and grandchildren, reruns of Stalag 17, and the days before we had seat belts, bicycle helmets, and smoke-free zones. HOW ON EARTH DID THEY LIVE THROUGH SUCH DANGEROUS TIMES?!?! So when did good old Walter stop looking for new acne products, huh? The ladies at the old folks home call him a “regular guy.” Sweet.

You know, one thing I dislike about stories like these is the media always asks “what’s his secret” for longevity. And the answers are always contradictory, did you ever realize that? I drank wine, I never drank wine. I smoked cigarettes, I never smoked cigarettes. I ate only vegetables, I ate mostly meat.

You know what I think is the secret to their success?

They looked both ways before crossing.
They didn’t eat foods with the main ingredient “high fructose corn syrup.”
They didn’t have Madonna, Cyndi Lauper and Lady Gaga
They didn’t have Obamacare!

These just never grow old. LOL. Ever since I saw the first viral Fashion Roadkill (bwahahahah!) of a poor model tripping over her prom dress and high heels, FAIL photos are too funny. What you think, huh? ;) Here are some good ones:

Oh dear! I think this may have been at my local Walgreens??? Whoopsie!

After seeing this headline, Push To Collect Online Sales Tax Gathering Support, I have a headache. These bureaucrats in government are really pushing things too far. I can’t even begin to remonstrate how WRONG it is to charge sales tax from an online purchase from another state. Hello? Ever hear of the interstate commerce clause?! If I buy home remedies for blackheads in New Jersey and I live in California, I cannot be charged with sales tax! The Constitution forbids one state making sales tax money off purchases made in another state!!! It’s ILLEGAL! Not that that has ever stopped any politician…. *sigh*

Well, in the spirit of taxation and regulation, I have an idea! The states are in bad fiscal shape through mismanagement? How about you guys go where the REAL money is!

Tax political speeches. This will generate a TON of money, instantly. It may even decrease the endless speeches! Which may even have the splendid result of reducing hot air greenhouse gases, all in one blow!

Tax every Congressman every time he votes to raise taxes. That’ll make him think twice.

Tax “medical services” such as abortions and Viagara drugs. That’ll probably make quite a number of politicians think twice, as well.

Tax the Federal Reserve. Why not? They tax us for the honor of printing our own money!!! (Also unConstitutional).

See? There are numerous ways to fix this problem. I wish they’d quit killing the little guy with taxes– cuz if they were really serious about revenue, they’d reduce spending and quit bailing out every whining banker and politician…
