Making coke in Colombia

The process of making coke in the Colombian deep jungle. Although it's a pro-gerrilla documentary, it's very interesting.

#CBSA -Whats this stupid guy posting twitter ??

I just got dm'ed on twitter and was asked what the heck was I posting on twitter with the #CBSA tag.

For them that dont know, CBSA stands for Canada Border Security Agency. Every evening I get an email with Dbriefs on certain talks points on whats happening. This is non sensitive information and I began using hashtags to shift thru the data and use twitter to distribute some infonuggets. I do this nearly everyday at between 4-5PM Mon- Fri.

I am the lone ranger  (at least for now) that uses hashtags to keep track of these nuggets of info. Take a look at the cull of the hashTag #CBSA

After Pennsylvania

nice Read from a Posting of all places in Scotland. (Of course theres  a think tank on international poloicy there :)-

The ScotsMan projects that Carter and Gore will endorse Obama and while at it, they also do a mini take away of the 22nd course !

Possible outcomes of the crucial Democrat primary of April 22.

1. Clinton wins big

A win of 20 points or more over Obama in Pennsylvania would keep Clinton's campaign alive. She would also have to replicate this result in the nine states still to vote, narrowing the gap with her rival and convincing the all-important party superdelegates to choose her as nominee.

2. Clinton wins small

A victory in single digits, in a state where Clinton was once 20 points ahead, would make little difference to Obama's lead. Yet a win is a win, and she would be likely to try to stay in the race until June, unless superdelegates stepped in.

3. Obama wins small

A single figure victory on Clinton's 'home turf' would cement Obama's claim to the nomination. Superdelegates would be likely to declare him the nominee before June.

4. Convincing win for Obama

A double-digit Obama victory would be the shock of the primary contest. It would be followed by a stampede of superdelegates rushing to be front of the queue to embrace him.

beware of Parrot from the Ho house !!

A woman went to a pet shop & immediately  spotted a large, beautiful parrot..
There was a sign on the cage that said $50.00.

'Why so little,' she asked the pet store owner.

The owner looked at her and said, 'Look, I should tell you first that this bird used to
 live in a house of Prostitution and sometimes it says some pretty vulgar stuff.'

The woman thought about this, but decided she had to have the bird any way.

She took it home and hung the bird's cage up in her living room and waited for it to say something.

The bird looked around the room, then at her, and said,

'New house, new madam.'

The woman was a bit shocked at the implication, but then thought 'that's really not so bad.'

When her 2 teenage daughters returned from school the bird saw and said,
'New house, new madam, new girls.'

The girls and the woman were a bit offended but then began to laugh about the situation
considering how and where the parrot had been raised.

Moments later, the woman's husband Keith came home from work.

The bird looked at him and said,
'Hi, Keith!'
