How Bernie Sanders Used His Extra Cash

As CBS News reports, “Bernie and Jane Sanders, under FBI investigation for bank fraud, hire lawyers“.  We may now have an idea what Bernie and Jane did with all that cash.

Bernie and Jane’s New Ride

Politico Magazine first reported the Sanders had hired lawyers to defend them in the probe. Sanders’ top adviser Jeff Weaver told CBS News the couple has sought legal protection over federal agents’ allegations from a January 2016 complaint accusing then-President of Burlington College, Ms. Sanders, of distorting donor levels in a 2010 loan application for $10 million from People’s United Bank to purchase 33 acres of land for the institution.

According to Politico, prosecutors might also be looking into allegations that Sen. Sanders’ office inappropriately urged the bank to approve the loan.

I can see it now. Bernie and Jane on the run in their new ride.  The Chambers Brothers playing  at full volume and Bernie shouting,”Give it some more cowbell, Janie”.

Now the time has come
Nowhere (place) to run
Might get burned up by the sun
But I’ll have my fun
I’ve been loved, pushed (put) aside
I’ve been crushed by tumbling tide
And my soul has been psychedelicized

Daily Darwin – Advice to Coffee Drinkers

Darwin’s not sure whether this advice is for ‘coffee drinkers’ or for ‘ski jumpers’.  He thinks it probably cuts the old genome both ways.  Darwin recommends that one’s genomes will be most happy if one has his morning coffee prior to ski jumping.  This finishing the morning coffee, though, still has him perplexed.

Natural selection deems that some individuals serve as a warning to others. Who are we to disagree? The next generation, ever and anon, is descended from the survivors

Ruh-Roh Scooby! D O G Spells Dog, not Kid

The New Zealand Herald reports, “Dog snack dupes dozens of parents, store apologises“.  Apparently, the folks down-under in ‘Kiwi‘ land don’t read labels before sending snackies with their kiddies.

More parents have admitted mistakenly trying to feed their children dog food after a pet snack pack featuring a well-known kids cartoon was put next to chips in a supermarket.

The store owners have apologised after dozens of horrified parents have said they bought the Scooby Snacks for their youngsters from the Whanganui Pak’n Save this week to eat at school and kindergarten.

They were shocked to discover the 30g individual carob snack treats were never intended for human consumption but were animal snacks.

Notices have gone up around Whanganui preschools and staff are checking lunchboxes to make sure children aren’t eating the wrong food.
