The Philadelphia Stupids

woo!

Here's my thoughts on the Philadelphia Eagles hiring Michael Vick to play on their team: I don't care if a convicted felon who is still "on paper" has been hired. I don't care that he's playing football for a lot of money. If the Philadelphia Eagles want to be stupid, that's their decision. It seems to me that it will bring them bad publicity. But humans seem to think that all publicity is good...even bad publicity. If the Philadelphia Eagles get embarrassed, that's good. If they lose a lot of fans, that's good. If they lose a lot of money, that's good.

My Human is a Human Resources Coordinator. What that means is that, in part, she gets to hire people. She works for the world's largest facilities' services company. She gets a lot of applicants for janitorial positions. She wouldn't hire convicted felons who are still on parole to clean her customers' buildings. Obviously janitors are more important than NFL football players.

Liberty!

woo!

I've been having a good and successful time campaigning in Pennsylvania with my Khampaign Khoordinator Khyra. She brought me to the Liberty Bell where I gave a speech on liberty:



Citizens of Pennsylvania, thank woo very much for inviting me to your state. I have been asked to tell you what "liberty" means to me. According to Merriam-Webster, liberty is

1: the quality or state of being free: a: the power to do as one pleases b: freedom from physical restraint c: freedom from arbitrary or despotic control d: the positive enjoyment of various social, political, or economic rights and privileges e: the power of choice

2 a: a right or immunity enjoyed by prescription or by grant : privilege b: permission especially to go freely within specified limits



3: an action going beyond normal limits: as a: a breach of etiquette or propriety : familiarity b: risk, chance c: a violation of rules or a deviation from standard practice d: a distortion of fact

4: a short authorized absence from naval duty usually for less than 48 hours.

Now, let us celebrate our liberty with cheese & bacon!
