What if People had to Pass a Urine Test to get a Public Assistance Check?

The News Review Public Forum submitted by: Leonard Wilson

I have a question, not only for Douglas County, but for the entire state of Oregon. Like a lot of folks in this state, I have a job. I work, they pay me, I pay my taxes and the government distributes my taxes as they see fit. In order for me to get that paycheck, I am required to pass a random urine test, which I have no problem with.

What I do have a problem with is the distribution of my taxes to people who don't have to pass a urine test. Shouldn't one have to pass a urine test to get a welfare check, because I have to pass one to go earn it for them?

Please understand, I have nothing against helping people get back on their feet. I do, on the other hand, have a problem with helping someone sit on their butt. Could you imagine how much money the state would save if people had to pass a urine test to get a public assistance check?

Merry Christmas: Santa Delivers the Goods

Dear Naughty Ones,

You are lucky I am human and I have physical needs.
Mrs. Claus made my bed on the couch unless I delivered the goods as planned.

Note: YOU ARE WELCOME!

Recommendation: Forgive others and be charitable or I will be forced to open up a can of whoop buns on you!

Remember: Thats my wave baby! Don't cut me off...

Santa is Skateboarding on December 24th?

Dear Kids,

No! I have not changed my mind you stubborn, nasty, naughty boys and girls! You have missed the real reason for the season. Go ahead and pretend like I am joking, as I grind the top of this half-pipe, like you will grind your teeth tomorrow morning with an empty room missing your Christmas presents. Ha Ha Ha and a Ho Ho Ho! Know that I am enjoying all the wonderful gift ideas myself.

Note: I will be using my Slew of flying Reindeer to tow me into Mavericks tomorrow morning!

Having too much fun!

Love Santa

Air Guitar and Driving

What Were You Doing When You Should Have Been Driving? I caught you jammin on an air guitar.

Note:
This guy was so into his air jam he forgot he was driving. The windows were up as it was 31 degrees outside so I didn't catch the tune.

Somedays you wish you were a fly on the wall to observe interesting human behaviour.

Recommendation: Unplug the air guitar and drive.

Surfing Santa Heads to Colorado

Dear Kids,

Whooo Hoooo! A major snow storm slams Colorado!
I grabbed little Johnny's requested K2 FatBoy and headed in the opposite direction of most travellers.

Question: Why the heck did I rip off my sleeves and cut the legs off my shorts?

Oh well, I wish you naughty boys and girls could experience the thrill of the fresh powder and steep hill, but without your gifts this year you better get a J.O.B!

Ho Ho Ho and HA HA HA,

Love Airborne Santa

Santa is Losing His North Pole Clothing

Dear Kids,

Enjoying my vacation here in Costa Rica... Thanks again for being especially naughty! Cancelling Christmas is absolutely awesome, I should have done it years ago. However, let it be known that the past was no better than the present.

By-the-way, I had to cut my sleeves off as "It's Getting Hot in Here," is blasting on my new IPOD! Thanks for asking for this as I had no idea how cool it was. check out the IPOD H2O Audio, but pay for it yourself bad dudes and dudettes. Ho Ho Ho!

Back to business,

Love Santa

The Shopping Cart Vigilante Strikes Again

There is a new Super Hero in town who is taking the law into his own hands. A man shopper's call the Shopping Cart Vigilante. Operating in secret and on his own dollar, the Parking Lot Watchman keeps an eye out for lazy shoppers.

The vigilante watches customers and their shopping cart habits. If a customer doesn't return their cart, the masked crusader dashes to the rescue by physically lifting the shopping cart high up into the air and placing it directly on top of the offending customers car. Yelling, the super hero says..."Which exerts more inertia? Walking twenty steps to return your cart or lifting a heavy cart off the top of your car? The super hero turns with his cape flapping in the wind and disappears into the masses of the parking lot.

When asked, "Why are you doing this?" The masked super hero exclaimed, "It is not transfat which makes America heavy, it is pure laziness and a lack of concern for your fellow human being." As he disappeared, I heard him singing, "I'm making a list, i'm checking it twice, i'm going to find out if your naughty or nice... Ha Ha Ha Ha, the Shopping Cart Vigilante is coming to town."

Shark Attack

Dear Kids,

Unfortunately, I lost a good chum today while surfing Morro Bay, California.

The victim was an elf named Rubik. Rubik was viciously attacked and killed by a giant grey today. Fortunately, no one really requested his Rubrik's Cube this year.

Having fun,

Love Santa

Not Everything Green is a Vegetable!

What Were You Doing When You Should Have Been Driving? Eating a Booger and Driving is not only disgusting, it is major driver distraction!

Not everything Green is a Vegetable! This lady had a bumper sticker on her car that read MEAT is MURDER.

Note: As I passed this ladies vehicle, I observed her pick her nose and eat it... The booger was large enough to see the color and the texture!

Question: Is a booger a meat or vegetable? Neither! Girl! Go to the store and get some meat! Absolutely Disgusting! How many calories are in a booger anyway?

Santa: No Forwarding Address!

Dear Kids,

I am leaving the North Pole, never to return! Please google, Transworld Surf, Surfer, or Surfing magazine and send all further correspondance to their editors addressed "In Care of Surfing Santa!"

You might see me shreding your local break!

By-the-way, NO! I am not Jack O'neill... but, I am open to O'neill Wetsuits creating a surfing santa "North Pole" winter suit!

Tiger Woods: Major Driver Distraction!

What Were You Doing When You Should Have Been Driving? Freaking Out if Tiger Woods is on the course!

Note:
Although this one is a little off thread, it made me laugh.

Hint: Esso and/or Chevron should replace the old Tiger with the new. Put Tiger Woods in the tank and Drive Perfection!

Cat Scratch Fever and Driving

What Were You Doing When You Should Have Been Driving? Challenge: Try to Beat, a flying, scratching, biting cat off of you while driving is very dangerous.

The Song playing on the Radio is by Ted Nugent, "Cat Scratch Fever."

This one had me laughing all the way to work. The loose cat went ballistic in the car for some unknown reason. It freaked out! The driver pulled over to the side of the road and quickly exited the car until the cat chilled.

Note:
Use a pet carrier case to avoid cat scratch fever and driving!
