The Social Poets: Funny 1917 CIA Spy Technology Docs Released: Invisible Writing
The Social Poets: Funny 1917 CIA Spy Technology Docs Released: Invisible Writing: "From Denny: Anyone who regularly reads this blog knows I grew up in the CIA. Yes, it was one weird childhood living with such paranoid uptight and often humorless people. Whenever the CIA releases ancient documents molding down in their deep dark spy basement it always gives me a grin.
When I was a kid we spent a lot of time figuring out codes since Dad had been a code breaker in WWII - among other things. One of our other childhood past times was to figure out intriguing ways to pass messages and, yes, write in invisible ink. Even Dad joined in the fun. My mother just shook her head and thought we were all a bunch of looney tunes. Knowing Dad he was probably using his baby geniuses to do his research on the cheap. Who said you can't take your work home with you?
Anyway, it is with great pleasure I present to you Rachel Maddow's cheeky report about Dear Ol' Dad's creepy CIA. This week, The New CIA under Director Leon Panetta, and a lot less creepy, odious and just plain obnoxious, released some 1917 technology for public viewing, er, laughter."

The Social Poets: New Terrorism Alert System: Gone Is Bush Era Funny
The Social Poets: New Terrorism Alert System: Gone Is Bush Era Funny: "From Denny: What? My Democrats have gone and done something that makes sense? Whatever will we do without the crazy antics of the Republicans running the federal government? There goes the good entertainment value for your vote.
My own terror alert for Homeland Security when new poems are published
Gone is the stupid color coded terror chart of the Bush years we all loved to lampoon regularly. Today, Homeland Security revealed the obvious: two levels of alert, 'elevated threat' and 'imminent threat.'
Read elevated threat as 'Take a look around and be aware of your surroundings and pay attention to the news while you are at it.' Read imminent threat as 'You are basically screwed if you didn't pay attention to the first warning and check your phone apps for updates.'"

Dennys: News Politics Comedy Science Arts & Food: Posts Roundup at Dennys Blogs - 17 April 2011
Dennys: News Politics Comedy Science Arts & Food: Posts Roundup at Dennys Blogs - 17 April 2011: "While the Japanese nuclear crisis continues unabated, the rest of the world has moved on, dreading the inevitable. At the moment the world community has pressured Japan to come up with a plan to contain or deal with the crisis over a nine month period.
Why the same people are in charge of this mess that created the mess is a mystery. It's as foolish as it was to trust BP to clean up the oil spill disaster in my own Gulf of Mexico. Serious hardships still exist as a result of President Obama and BP refusing to do what it takes to make things right, especially in Louisiana.
At the very least the President could do is refuse to allow BP access to any of America's oil fields on or off shore. The company has simply not earned the right to drill for oil on American soil or in our oceans."
The Social Poets: The Ridiculous: Funny Donald Trump Cartoons, Late Nite Jokes
The Social Poets: The Ridiculous: Funny Donald Trump Cartoons, Late Nite Jokes: "OK, with a show of hands, who really thinks Trump is serious about running for President? Yeah, I agree with you. He's a complete clown no one would take seriously - except for the Republicans. Can you believe Trump last week's poll says he is tied for first place for the GOP nomination? Just goes to show acting strange and exaggerated appeals to Republican voters who lost their minds long ago when they signed up on the Karl Rove-Bush's Brain Express.
The Donald Trump Exaggeration: his reality TV shows, the beauty queens, the weird hair and his gold-plated billionaire real estate empire."

The Social Poets: Funny Late Nite Jokes Roundup: Government Shutdown
Image via WikipediaThe Social Poets: Funny Late Nite Jokes Roundup: Government Shutdown: "For the moment the government shutdown was averted - until the next time. The coming battle for political supremacy will be fighting over raising the debt ceiling. Without it, the country is basically screwed for mortgage loans, small business loans: life."

The Social Poets: Funny Videos: Jon Stewart Mocks Glenn Beck FOX News Departure
Glenn Beck - Image via WikipediaThe Social Poets: Funny Videos: Jon Stewart Mocks Glenn Beck FOX News Departure: "Did any of us think the long rambling weird reign of foul-mouthed Glenn Beck would ever stop? Well, even FOX News has had enough and told him last week his show was canceled. He will depart the end of the year when his contract ends. Well, it never was real news, just imagined news.
For months comics have lampooned Beck's messianic Hitler style attitude and declarations. Well, even Beck's fans began to evaporate. Turns out in January his fan base began dwindling. Originally, at the height of his nightly viewership was clocked at about three million."

The Social Poets: 12 Best of The Web Funny April Fools Day: Pranked, Spoofed and Trashed
The Social Poets: 12 Best of The Web Funny April Fools Day: Pranked, Spoofed and Trashed: "There are those among us - of a cheeky bent - who look forward to this one day a year when people forgive us for pranking them. Today the web was full of April Fool's Day fun from every angle, a real bumper crop of craziness!
1 - First up: Google leads the fun with their prank about their new feature of 'motion-controlled' email. After all, typing on a keyboard is 'so last century,' right? And Google says it's also 'outdated' and 'inefficient.'
'To open a message make a movement as if you were opening an envelope. To reply, simply point backward with your thumb,' Google says in a video demonstration. More instructions? 'To reply all, use both hands. To send a message, lick a stamp and place it down.'
Well, you too can look like a complete fool by believing this satire and standing up in your office cubicle on Freaky Friday and get elected Fool Of The Day by using various body language to instruct your computer. It's like using cat body language to write an email. Hey, whatever floats your boat."

The Social Poets: Libya War: Funny Late Nite Jokes Roundup
Image by DVIDSHUB via FlickrThe Social Poets: Libya War: Funny Late Nite Jokes Roundup: "Check out what the comedians lampoon about The Peace President, Obama, going into Libya. Boy, I tell ya, a guy tries to help out some desperate people in a foreign country from getting slaughtered and all he gets is flak from the Republicans and comedians.
Of course, like so many sticky political situations, it's all about The Ego. The mostly male media ratchets up The Ego Meter by declaring Prez Obama is a wimp if he doesn't succeed at deposing Gadafi now that he's declared, 'Gadafi must go!' So, suddenly out come The Big Guns: the CIA operatives magicly appear in Libya 'advising' the rebel forces. Read that as, 'These guys are so clueless the only way to keep them alive is knock some sense into them and show them how to win.'"

Sometimes, I think if I didn't do posts roundup on all these crazy blogs I would never realize just how much I've been writing or on what subjects as the writing moves so quickly. The news is running at a rapid rate these days with all the revolutions in the Middle East and destructive world weather.
Fortunately, we have the comedians and the chefs to perk up our spirits and tantalize our taste buds so we don't get overwhelmed with too much negativity in the news and our politics."

32 Egypt Revolution Ousts Mubarak Cartoons
New York City Egyptians on Freedom Day of 11 Feb 2011 Image by Getty Images via @daylifeFrom Denny: The Egyptian people are still walking ten feet off the ground today as they begin the process of getting back to work. There are those still protesting in the Tahrir Square, afraid the military may not make good on their promises to meet the Revolution demands.
Already the military is moving to establish order, calm the world about peace agreements and begin the process to create political parties and elections. They have dismissed Parliament and are reshuffling government management. Read that as they are sifting out the nepotism posts.
America continues to enjoy a good relationship with the Egyptian military so chances are Obama - or at least the Pentagon - will be kept in the loop on information as it develops in Egypt. Hopefully, all the established democracies in the world are offering help, assistance, ideas on how to get Egypt on track quickly to their own version of a democracy.
Meanwhile, there is the thorny issue of whether to prosecute Mubarak and others in his administration for theft of national funds or crimes committed under the thoroughly hated and feared Emergency Law. After all, there are still present the 350,000 Secret Police that have savaged the 80 million people for 30 years.
Mubarak has been informed not to leave the country. His funds have been frozen by Swiss banks but Mubarak is cagey and squirreled away monies all over the world - some probably right here in America. Obama says he is doing a thorough investigation into whether Mubarak has funds here, probably since I brought it up in a post the other day.
Yeah, they read me at the White House, at the Pentagon and in the world intelligence community for the same reason my father's precious CIA guys used to listen to me: to see how much their BS is believed or not. Obviously, not for the right reason of doing the right and honorable thing toward the people of America or the world. Oh, well, guess when the time comes for them to meet St. Peter at The Pearly Gates they can't tell God that no one counseled them with The Truth.
It is amazing how leaders in the government, the military and the intelligence communities really make life hard on themselves and everyone around them. If they just swept aside their bloated egos, quit with the cover-ups to protect their pride, life could be so simple and a lot healthier and more prosperous for everyone.
In the days leading up to Mubarak leaving:
