Random Thoughts

ROCHESTER - The political world is a fun one right now. So much scandal, so many decisions to be made and all levels are in the news.

1. Clearly Tom Golisano thinks poorly of Albany politicians. He has endorsed "Baby" Joe Mesi's candidacy for state senate. That is right. Mr. G believes that a guy who gets punched in the head for a living is qualified to help run our state. Actually, he no longer gets punched in the face for a living because the Nevada Boxing Commission won't let him because of BRAIN BLEEDING. So his head is too messed up to box, yet he can solve Albany?

2. Monroe County Clerk Cheryl Dinolfo is a menace to society. She allows (yes, the actions of those under your employ reflect on you) residents' social security numbers to be posted online on the County Clerk's website. Her opponent calls her out on it and she claims politics. Uhh, do your job.

3. Vice presidential sweepstakes are at a fever pitch. I hope Obama goes for Kucinich. I know he won't, so I don't really care. Joe Biden would be funny, though. McCain can't find anyone to balance his ticket because he is on every side of every issue.

4. My new favorite athlete is Bolt of Jamaica. He is fun to watch and he is not Michael Phelps. I like Phelps' Baltimoreness, but I am sick of the hype. He is a swimmer. Win a decathlon and then you can be the greatest Olympian.

5. Lastly, Buffalo Assemblyman Sam Hoyt has no game, but won't likely pay for it. He may be a penguin boxer wearin', toe nail paintin', intern nailin' scumbag, but in a primary, he only has to convince half of people who are predisposed to liking him he shouldn't lose his job over marriage infidelity. Oh well.
