G.O.M.E.R. *

* Grumpy Old Men & Their Elucidating Rants

Don't Say Gay:  If you actually take the time to read through the recently enacted legislation in Florida, you'll discover that it never says "Don't Say Gay." It forbids comprehensive health standards in grades Pre-K thru 3. CHS is code talk for instruction that legitimizes deviant lifestyles & sexual practices, encourages abortion, & seeks to sexualize children. While it's not mandated in Florida, local Boards of Ed can adopt these standards, which is what's happened in other states, so this legislation is definitely warranted, definitely pro-active.. If anything, in my opinion, it doesn't go far enough.

Inflation:  I blame both Republicans & Democrats for spending trillions of dollars--money that we don't have. The root of the problem, however, is the Democrats.

Gas Prices:  More on that later.

Women:  Rules protecting women from competing against transgenders are not transphobic. They are a matter of basic fairness.

CRIMINAL MINDS

"Animal rights activist glues herself to floor during NBA play-in game with message to T'Wolves owner." FNO. Because, heaven knows, gluing yourself to a basketball court is a sure-fire way to promote animal rights.

POLITICAL POTPOURRI

"First TX bus drops off migrants blocks from US Capitol in Washington, D.C." FNO. I think it's hilarious.

"Biden says he's doing 'everything' in his power to reduce gas prices." FNO. Like approving the Keystone XL pipeline. Oh, wait . . . 

HERE'S TO YOUR HEALTH

"STUDY:  Being bilingual significantly slows brain again." Drudge Report. I think I may be bilingual. I can say "yes" in several languages. "Ya" (German); "Si" (Spanish); "Da" (Russian); "Es-yay" (Pig Latin).

THE MEDIA

Better Ways to Spend Your Money Instead of Subscribing to CNN+ *

* Compliments of Babylon Bee

> Buy a single gallon of gas. You're not going to have the extra money left over for CNN+ anyway.

> Pay a random person on the street to you what happened in the news. The news will be more reliable, & you'll feel like you stepped back in time to speak with a town crier. Educational!

> Buy 5 things off the dollar menu at Taco Bell. At least it will clear out your intestinal tract. You'll be supermodel thin!

> Buy half a gallon of gas. The price went up since we started this list.
