BSTF 869 - Hurricane Spectacular 12 - Meet George Jenkem!
June 26, 2011, 1:06 a.m.
HURRICANE SPECTACULAR Chapter 12: "Meet George Jenkem!"
Deathmatch, schmeathmatch. Jeb Robertson Bush has hunted down and slain his rogue brother in the swamps, but to no avail--the demonic George refuses to die! Being decapitated, filleted, and left for dead only got the dumbass worked up. What the fuck can his half-brother do? A revelatory astral visit from Jeb's ghostly real dad Pat Robertson lays an onus on his anus to finish the job.
Meanwhile, out in the bayou, George discovers the worst--he's out of BEER! But then, a solution--"solution" being in a LITERAL sense-- presents itself when George recalls his frat days and the pleasures of gettin' high off jenkem...and "Oh, shit" ain't enough of a description.
Trust me, this episode rapidly plunges from the operatic heights to the pull-my-finger depths like a skeet-shot cliffdiver--but it serves a real purpose, because we'll *need* a breather and a little recreational chemical therapy. This story arc is playing out, and it's about to shift into high gear. Get ready to strap in, because the NEXT episode is one motherfucker of a nitrofueled grindhouse explosion of stunning, jaw-dropping violence that FINALLY, ONCE AND FOR ALL SETTLES THE GEORGE/JEB SCORE FOR GOOD.
Some program notes: No, that isn't my George W. mashup of "Fortunate Son," but I wish it were. Plus, if any misguided tweens are tempted to try jenkem, after hearing this, they're going to think you have to DRINK it. (Consider this my version of an effective anti-jenkem PSA.) Featuring a special guest appearance by Evil Susie -- as the *voice of REASON*(?!!)
Hell--I have no idea where this fucking thing is going, either. Just find something you can latch onto and try to hang the fuck on, PLEASE.

Key Democrats Join Gov. Christie Cutting Public Worker Bargaining Rights
and Balancing the Budget on the Backs of the Workers
With
Barbara Keshishian, President, New Jersey Education Association
Hetty Rosenstein,Area Dir. Communications Workers of America New Jersey
Despite a massive outpouring of protesters at the State Capital at Trenton, Democratic leaders of the State Senate and Assembly, Stephen Sweeney and Sheila Oliver, joined with bombastic bully Governor Chris Christie to get approval for a measure to strip health care benefits from collective bargaining rights for state public workers. This could triple health care costs to workers while the millionaires tax went down in defeat. Combined with so called New Jersey public worker pension reforms this will lead to lowering workers pay by 5 -10% while reaping big profits for the insurance industry who charge high commissions for public worker health care insurance.
