I will be adding to this post over the next few days; just a few things that caught my interest. But our land calls to me non-stop to tidy her up. Making progress. Have to; graduation party in a week and a half.
Again, check back for updates . . .
The Tax That Really Stinks
Fart tax on cattle
Estonian authorities have slapped a flatulence tax on farmers to compensate the country for the methane gas produced by cows.
Farmers this week received their first ‘fart tax’ demands asking them to pay for the greenhouse gases their cattle produce.
A single cow is thought to produce on average 350 litres of methane and 1,500 litres of carbon dioxide per day from flatulence and burping.
It is thought that cattle are responsible for up to 25 per cent of methane gas emissions in Estonia.
Opposition politicians have slammed the tax however. Jaanus Marrandi, spokesman for the opposition People’s Union of Estonia said: “This is unprecedented in any EU country.”
From here.
Come on. I pray they never come to my house. All these guys, and then they have their friends over. Fart fest at Stacy’s. Pay your tax at the door.
Cows have been farting up the planet for how many years now? Geezuz.
Denver Police Officer Poses for Sexy Photo
Abbe Dorn is a contestant on American Gladiators
DENVER (MyFOXColorado.com) - A photograph of a female Denver Police officer posing on all-fours in white lingerie is raising questions.
Abbe Dorn has been on the force for two years and on Monday the Denver Police even sent out a press release about her selection as one of the contestants in American Gladiators.
“The public information officers at the Denver police were expecting this when they put her out there as the gem of the Denver police department,” said Brad Jones of the political website facethestate.com.
A Fox 31 investigation found the picture on the body building website hardbody.com.

Some folks who saw the picture asked “why is she not wearing any pants…is she wearing a thong.” Pauline Economon called it “soft core porn” and very disappointing to see an officer posing like that.
Others said so long as she was a “good officer” the picture shouldn’t matter. Denver police refused our requests for comment on the story and Dorn was unreachable by phone or at her home.
From here.
In the news segment aired last night, the on-the-street consensus leaned towards citizens disgusted.
Stacy says: “PleeFuckinEeze”
For years Law Enforcement Departments and Fire Departments have been marketing calendars. Sometimes the proceeds for the calendars benefit charities, and sometimes the departments use them to buy necessary equipment that is not within the budget.
Tell me what’s the difference?

or

The argument is that she is posing in a sexually provocative position. The first man-candy photo is sexy, but in the second, Bruce is lying down in a position that could be interpreted in a sexual manner. Most of the LEO and firefighter calendars have beefcake oozing with sexy testosterone. But of course, I wouldn’t know anything about those kinds of calendars. Yessirreebob, I don’t know nothing about those calendars.
Get over it. She is a beautiful woman, ripped and headed to American Gladiators. Best of luck Officer Dorn, I will be cheering you on.
(note to self: keep those private pictures private)
