Despicable, black sheep, and my 3rd pol

a) Despicable Me
Movie: "Despicable Me"
Review: 4 bill-stars (out of 5)... great!

Cartoon movies have been on a roll,man... Fantastic Mr. Fox, Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs, Kung Fu Panda... pretty much, lots of good stuff outside of the walls of Pixar.

"Despicable Me" is worthy: fun, funny, adult jokes tossed in, really positive, and even has politically incorrect jokes about orphans... always a treat in a children's movie. And yes, I'm as tired of the superhero/villian theme as you are, but Despicable is a better/different/lighter take on it.

I liked it. My dang kid liked it. Done.

QOTD

"Assemble the minions!"
- Gru, "Despicable Me"

b) Fave logo
Oh, how about a restaurant review!

Restaurant: Black Sheep Pizza in Minneapolis, MN
Review: 5 bill-stars (out of 5)... YOW!
Website: www.blacksheeppizza.com



Ty and I went here on our vacation.
Great pizza. Great atmosphere. Great service (hot hot waitress!).
And my fave logo of all time. He he!

The only ding... they didn't have large t-shirts, so Ty got one (with aforementioned logo prominently displayed), but I didn't.
Dang. Ripoff!

c) And then there were 3
So, I had 2 pols: Jersey gov Chris Christie and DC schools chief Michelle Rhee.
I guess I can add Paul Ryan to the mix. Ryan is a Congressman from Wisconsin (I think).
Here's why... his website: www.americanroadmap.org

I read some of this and it looks good and simple as mud:

• Health care: medical savings accounts, portability of health insurance across state lines, detach health insurance and employment
  
• Social security: make solvent primarily by making a private option available to 1/3 of money put in, and raising the retirement age in the future
  
• Medicare: make solvent by subsidizing seniors in purchasing private, certified health insurance plans
• Tax code: simplified with reduced deductions, no AMT, no capital gains
  

That's all good, baby.
Own your own stuff.
Learn it. Love it. Live it.

And indeed... what a refreshing contrast to President Obama's efforts in things like ObamaCare. Ryan's proposals are clear, concise and honest.

It's also refreshing to see President Obama and his minions (he he) flailing at everything and anything that moves: we're all racists and it's W's fault and corporate America is bad and rich people are blah blah blah.

President Obama is the very definition of a vanilla politician.
november please... yow, bill
