Things WE learned this year
I think we all learned quite a lot about how to pick up guys and have anonymous sex in public bathrooms. Apparently in the North there is an intricate system of foot and hand gestures, in the south (Florida) you PAY HIM to .... HIM which I think was new to many of us.

Speaking of things that you normally don't equate with sanity needs

I think for the first time many of had to consider how to effectively deal with celebrity snailtrail. There was a furry of activity in this area this year and since I bought a car with leather seats it was something that I here-to-for never really had to consider. Now I do.

We all learned that dog fighting, actually training dogs to kill each other training them , is ongoing to an extent that is sad to even have to consider.

We learned that Robert Murray has to be one of the biggest douchebags currently consuming oxygen.

We learned that just never is a good time to cut loose a drunken elected pedophile well never a good time politically.

We learned that Paris Hilton has to do time but not Scooter Libby

What else did we learn this year?

1. Bob Murray made "The List" this year - No. 19:
19. Robert E. Murray

Charges: A modern-day Boss Tweed who saw the Grandall Canyon mine disaster as his own personal tragedy, weeping for the cameras while he tried to cover his ass in the most ridiculous way imaginable, insisting his mine collapsed due to an earthquake that somehow went undetected by seismologists, rather than the corner-cutting, cash-wringing, dangerous practice of retreat mining. This bloated, maniacal jackass is so out of touch that he didn't seem to recognize the horrified disgust on the faces of the miners' families he coddled for the cameras, as if they weren't real people to him, just props in some insane, ego-driven PR campaign to minimize his financial liability. A caricature of industrial greed.

Exhibit A: Says Al Gore is "more dangerous than global warming."

Sentence: Buried upside down in anthracite until death, while Donald Trump stands next to his feet and gives hourly speeches about how much he cares about it.
