Conspiracy - Did the driver of JFK's limo shoot the president?

Caution: the following authentic video footage of JFK's assassination is quite disturbing.

OK, here's our first conspiracy post. I recently received this "regurginet" asserting that the driver of JFK's limousine shot the president (at least the second shot). I often wonder how often recipients do additional searches on the Internet to possibly obtain a counter point-of-view. I also understand that in the interest of time or political persuasion, many of us can't or won't. As a general rule, ReGurgiNet will make at least a half-hearted attempt to provide this counter point-of-view. Quite frankly, it's unlikely I'll post any political or conspiratorial regurginet without this "counter-balance". So, after you trudge through as much of the following regurginet as your stomach will allow, I encourage you to reference the counter perspective video further below:

*****************************************
Dialogue accompanying the original regurginet:
HOW JFK WAS REALLY KILLED...CHILLING FILM EVIDENCE...!!!
I remember Lyndon B. Johnson saying on TV the day after the John F. Kennedy assassination, that the world would never know all the facts Surrounding
Kennedys killing for 75 years until the complete file of information would be revealed. I also remember Walter Cronkite announcing on TV, that The
Nation could not handle the full truth in that Century.
Well, only 47 years have passed since Kennedys assassination. This is hard to fake and is very chilling....... Who was driving?
This video shows the limousine chauffeur that takes President J.F.K. and his wife, November 22nd 1963 in Dallas , Texas , shooting the gun with his
left hand.
This was the video that the CIA did not show to the public view.
Did you ask yourself why was Jackie trying to run away towards the Trunk, away from the front of the car?
And why JFK's skull wound was in the front, when Oswald supposedly shot him from the back??
Interesting.....provocative..... And chilling...............!!!!!

I want to be like mommy!

A first grade girl turned in a drawing (above) for her homework assignment. The teacher graded it and returned it to the child. Then the child took the graded assignment home.

***************************************

She returned to school the next day with the following note:

Dear Ms. Davis,

I want to be perfectly clear about my child's homework illustration. It is NOT a piture of me pole dancing at a strip joint surrounded by male customers with money. I work at Home Depot and had commented to my daughter how much money we made during a recent snowstorm. This is a drawing of me selling a shovel.

Sincerely,
Mrs. Harrington

Who say's (little) white guys can't dance?

OK, sometimes all it takes for a smile and a chuckle is a tiny tike in diapers doing a cute little jig.

USS Montana

Here's a simple lesson in relational dynamics. For some, pride and/or narcissism can be a significant obstacle to harmonious existence with others. So, when you're interacting with your fellow man, DON'T BE A USS MONTANA!

(Aerospace Nerd Alert) The Boeing 747-8 Intercontinental


The Boeing 747-8 Intercontinental and 747-8 Freighter are the new, high-capacity 747s that offer airlines the lowest operating costs and best economics of any large passenger or freighter airplane-while providing enhanced environmental performance.

This latest family of 747 jetliners meets airline requirements for a passenger airplane that serves the 400- to 500-seat market between the 555-seat Airbus A380 and the 365-seat Boeing 777-300 Extended Range airplanes, and for a freighter that continues the leadership of the 747 Freighter family in the world cargo market.

Boeing launched the airplane on Nov. 14, 2005, with firm orders for 18 747-8 Freighters: 10 from Cargolux of Luxembourg and 8 from Nippon Cargo Airlines of Japan. The combined list price value of the orders is approximately $5 billion.

Boeing studied the market feasibility of a new 747 for some time, working with operators to establish their requirements for an incrementally larger 747 to continue the profitability of current 747 fleets. By working together with customers and applying the innovative new technologies of the 787 Dreamliner, Boeing created the 747-8 family. In fact, the designation 747-8 was chosen to show the technology connection between the 787 and the new 747.

Both the passenger and freighter versions of the 747-8 will allow operators to maximize their profitability. Seat-mile costs for the 747-8 Intercontinental are 13 percent lower than for the 747-400, with 2 percent lower trip costs. The 747-8 Intercontinental is more than 10 percent lighter per seat than the Airbus A380 and consumes 11 percent less fuel per passenger. That translates into a trip-cost reduction of 21 percent and a seat-mile cost reduction of more than 6 percent compared to the A380.


How did they get there?













OK, this is where the regurginet gets political and stereotypically biased. So, to keep it interesting, I've added a smattering extra Oval Office "how did they get there":





Or...

Why did the chicken cross the road?

SARAH PALIN:  The chicken crossed the road because, gosh-darn it, he's a maverick!

BARACK OBAMA:  The chicken crossed the road because it was time for change!  The chicken wanted change!

JOHN MC CAIN:  My friends, that chicken crossed the road because he recognized the need to engage in cooperation and dialogue with all the chickens on the other side of the road.

HILLARY CLINTON:  When I was First Lady, I personally helped that little chicken to cross the road.  This experience makes me uniquely qualified to ensure right from Day One that every chicken in this country gets the chance it deserves to cross the road.  But then, this really  isn't about me.

GEORGE W. BUSH:  We don't really care why the chicken crossed the road.  We just want to know if the chicken is on our side of the road, or not.  The chicken is either against us, or for us.  There is no middle ground here.

DICK CHENEY:  Where's my gun?

COLIN POWELL:  Now to the left of the screen, you can clearly see the satellite image of the chicken crossing the road.

BILL CLINTON:  I did not cross the road with that chicken.

AL GORE:  I invented the chicken.

JOHN KERRY:  Although I voted to let the chicken cross the road, I am now against it!  It was the wrong road to cross, and I was misled about the chicken's intentions.  I am not for it now, and will remain against it.

AL SHARPTON:  Why are all the chickens white?  We need some black chickens up in here.

DR. PHIL:  The problem we have here is that this chicken won't realize that he must first deal with the problem on this side of the road before it goes after the problem on the other side of the road.  What we need to do is help him realize how stupid he's acting by not taking on his current problems before adding new problems.

OPRAH:  Well, I understand that the chicken is having problems, which is why he wants to cross this road so badly.  So instead of having the chicken learn from his mistakes and take falls, which is a part of life, I'm going to give this chicken a NEW CAR so that he can just drive across the road and not live his life like the rest of the chickens.

ANDERSON COOPER, CNN:  We have reason to believe there is a chicken, but we have not yet been allowed to have access to the other side of the road.

NANCY GRACE:  That chicken crossed the road because he's guilty!  You can see it in his eyes and the way he walks.

PAT BUCHANAN:  To steal the job of a decent, hardworking American.

MARTHA STEWART:  No one called me to warn me which way that chicken was going.  I had a standing order at the Farmer's Market to sell my eggs when the price dropped to a certain level.  No little bird gave me any insider information.

DR. SEUSS:  Did the chicken cross the road?  Did he cross it with a toad?  Yes, the chicken crossed the road, but why it crossed I've not been told.

ERNEST HEMINGWAY:  To die in the rain, alone.

JERRY FALWELL:  Because the chicken was gay!  Can't you people see the plain truth? That's why they call it the 'other side.'  Yes, my friends, that chicken is gay.  And if you eat that chicken, you will become gay too.  I say we boycott all chickens until we sort out this abomination that the Liberal media whitewashes with seemingly harmless phrases like 'the other side.'  That chicken should not be crossing the road.  It's as plain and as simple as that.

GRANDPA:  In my day we didn't ask why the chicken crossed the road.  Somebody told us the chicken crossed the road, and that was good enough.

BARARA WALTERS:  Isn't that interesting?  In a few moments, we will be listening to the chicken tell, for the first time, the heart warming story of how it experienced a serious case of molting, and went on to accomplish it's lifelong dream of crossing the road.

ARISTOTLE:  It is the nature of chickens to cross the road.

JOHN LENNON:  Imagine all the chickens in the world crossing roads together, in peace.

BILL GATES:  I have just released eChicken2011, which will not only cross roads, but will lay eggs, file your important documents, and balance your checkbook.  Internet Explorer is an integral part of eChicken2011.  This new platform is much more stable and will never reboot.

ALBERT EINSTEIN:  Did the chicken really cross the road, or did the road move beneath the chicken?

COLONEL SANDERS:  Did I miss one?

Difference Between North and South

The North has Bloomingdale's , the South has Dollar General .
The North has coffee houses, the South has Waffle Houses .
The North has dating services, the South has family reunions.
The North has switchblade knives; the South has .45's
The North has double last names; the South has double first names.
The North has Indy car races; The South has stock car races .
North has Cream of Wheat , the South has grits.
The North has green salads, the South has collard greens .
The North has lobsters, the South has crawfish .
The North has the rust belt; the South has the Bible Belt .
FOR NORTHERNERS MOVING SOUTH . .. ....
In the South: If you run your car into a ditch, don't panic. Four men in a four-wheel drive pickup truck with a tow chain will be along shortly. Don't try to help them, just stay out of their way. This is what they live for.
Don't be surprised to find movie rentals and bait in the same store... Do not buy food at this store.
Remember, 'Y'all' is singular, 'all y'all' is plural, and 'all y'all's' is plural possessive.
Get used to hearing 'You ain't from round here, are ya?'
Save all manner of bacon grease. You will be instructed later on how to use it.
Don't be worried at not understanding what people are saying. They can't understand you either. The first Southern statement to creep into a transplanted Northerner's vocabulary is the adjective 'big'ol,' truck or 'big'ol' boy. Most Northerners begin their Southern-influenced dialect this way. All of them are in denial about it.
The proper pronunciation you learned in school is no longer proper .
Be advised that 'He needed killin..' is a valid defense here.
If you hear a Southerner exclaim, 'Hey, y'all watch this,' you should stay out of the way. These are likely to be the last words he'll ever say.
If there is the prediction of the slightest chance of even the smallest accumulation of snow, your presence is required at the local grocery store. It doesn't matter whether you need anything or not. You just have to go there.
Do not be surprised to find that 10-year olds own their own shotguns, they are proficient marksmen, and their mammas taught them how to aim.
In the South, we have found that the best way to grow a lush green lawn is to pour gravel on it and call it a driveway.
AND REMEMBER: If you do settle in the South and bear children, don't think we will accept them as Southerners. After all, if the cat had kittens in the oven, we ain't gonna call 'em biscuits.

Bear vs. Man

Pretty sure this is a real bear. No seriously, bears are tremendous fighters but humans are more cunning. I think that's a "Dwight Schrute" ism"?

Terry Tate - Supply Chain Productivity

Being that it's Super Bowl time, I thought I would dig up this old classic. I've heard that at this year's Super Bowl, a thirty second advertisement went for three million dollars. There will be approximately forty-five adds aired during the 2011 Super Bowl, which adds up to 135 million dollars! 

And guess what; I get to be entertained and just a little brain-washed for free in my living room. Well, actually it's my loft but the sentence didn't sound right with loft. AaaNYWAaY , I will be enjoying my Doritos while watching the three million dollar Dorito commercial while sipping an ice cold Coke while watching a three million dollar Coke-a-Cola commercial.

Well actually I don't drink a lot of soda pop. So, I'll be drinking a %100 real fruit juice "Izzie".  And considering the large audience that reads this blog (about six or seven), the Izzie people should be stoked about this free plug.

An Open Seat At The Super Bowl

A man had 50 yard line tickets for the Super Bowl. As he sits down, a man comes down and
asks if anyone is sitting in the seat next to him. “No,” he says, “The seat is empty.”

“This is incredible,” said the man. “Who in their right mind would have a seat like this
for the Super Bowl, the biggest sporting event in the world, and not use it?”
He says, “Well, actually, the seat belongs to me. I was supposed to come with my wife, but
she passed away. This is the first Super bowl we haven’t been to together since we got
married in 1967.”

“Oh, I’m sorry to hear that. That’s terrible. But couldn’t you find someone else-a friend
or relative, or even a neighbor to take the seat?”.

The man shakes his head... “No, they’re all at the funeral.”

Stroke Has New Indicator - Tongue

This is our first "informative" ReGurginet! Thank you for sending this our our way; you know who your are, you thoughtful person you. And frankly, it couldn't be less important. The following is valuable information on how to identify a stroke/clot and address it as quickly as possible. Also, note the new fourth indicator; the tongue.

As far as the doctor being able to reverse the results of a stroke, I would love to have more information on how people could take advantage of this new procedure. I would have thought it just an urban myth but I actually heard about it on NPR. It seems to me it's sort of cutting edge and not available to everyone who suffers a stroke. But I could be wrong. Feel free to send more information about the new technique and I will post it. Now do yourself, family, and friends a solid and read the following post:

***************************************************

They say if you email this to ten people, you stand a chance of saving one life.  Will you send this along?

Identifying blood stroke/clots – Now there’s a Fourth Indicator,  Tongue (please read on)


STROKE: Remember the 1st Three Letters..... S T. R. 

Story:

During a BBQ, a woman stumbled and took a little fall - she assured everyone that she was fine (they offered to call paramedics) ....she said she had just tripped over a brick because of her new shoes. They got her cleaned up and got her a new plate of food. While she appeared a bit shaken up, Jane went about enjoying herself the rest of the evening.

Jane's husband called later telling everyone that his wife had been taken to the hospital - (at 6:00 pm Jane passed away.) She had suffered a stroke at the BBQ. Had they known how to identify the signs of a stroke, perhaps Jane would be with us today. Some don't die. They end up in a helpless, hopeless condition instead.

It only takes a minute to read this.

A neurologist says that if he can get to a stroke victim within 3 hours he can totally reverse the effects of a stroke...totally. He said the trick was getting a stroke recognized, diagnosed, and then getting the patient medically cared for within 3 hours, which is tough.



HOW TO RECOGNIZING A STROKE

Thank God for the sense to remember the '3' steps, STR. Read and Learn!

Sometimes symptoms of a stroke are difficult to identify. Unfortunately, the lack of awareness spells disaster. The stroke victim may suffer severe brain damage when people nearby fail to recognize the symptoms of a stroke.

Now doctors say a  bystander can recognize a stroke by asking three simple questions:

S  *Ask the individual to SMILE.

T  *Ask the person to TALK and SPEAK A SIMPLE SENTENCE  (Coherently)

(i.e. It is sunny out today.)

R  *Ask him or her to RAISE BOTH ARMS.


If he or she has trouble with ANY ONE of these tasks, call emergency number immediately and describe the symptoms to the dispatcher.

Now there's a new sign of stroke -------- Tongue

NOTE:  Another 'sign' of a stroke is this: Ask the person to 'stick' out his tongue. If the tongue is 'crooked', if it goes to one side or the other that is also an indication of a stroke.


The Barney Conspiracy

Everyone knows Barney,... that cute purple dinosaur. But here's something that you may not
know:

1. Start with the given:
  
    CUTE PURPLE DINOSAUR

2. Change all U's to V's (which is proper Latin anyway)

   CVTE PVRPLE DINOSAVR

3. Extract all Roman Numerals:

   CV V L DI V

4. Convert these into Arabic values:

   100 5 5 50 500 1 5

5. Add these numbers up:

   100
   5
   5
   50
   500
   1
   + 5
   ----
   666

There you have it.....
Valid mathematical proof that Barney is the Antichrist!

It's Groundhog Day - celebrate with this beloved clip!
