TUESDAY NIGHT!
In this photo: American Leader Mario De Maria with his lovely girlfriend Erika Pichette
Vista, CA- This Tuesday, July 28th, 2009, American Patriot Mario De Maria will be leading F.O.C.U.S. Bible Study in North County San Diego. Come learn from what he has to teach.
Unlike many modern day liberals and California residents, Mario De Maria does not conform to the left-wing, liberal-insane character that is flooding the minds of our American society. Unlike many others, he holds to a Christian conservative foundation in Biblical Truth, American Patriotism, and global pop-culture.
From a conversation over a July 4th bar b que, to the various bumper stickers he puts on the tailgate of his Chevy Silverado, Mario De Maria is one kick @$$ hero in my book. This is one cat we could all learn from.

THRILL: Banning British Petrolium
Yup, I've decided to fire British Petrolium from my administration.
For years, I've been a fan of the Arco's AM/PM gas stations because of the insanely cheap and affordable gas. Whatever gas prices may rise to, Arco would have the cheapest gasoline on the block.
I've had several close friends of mine explain that the fuel sold at the AM/PMs are bad for the engines of our vehicles. These same friends would rather buy gasoline from Chevron. But I being poor have only my dreams... and $5 in my pocket. Since money talks, it says to buy cheap gasoline. So for years, I bought from AM/PM.
Now, I've decided NOT to purchase gasoline there any more because I feel that this is the beginning of my campaign to boycot all things related to Great Britian. I believe that the United Kingdom is prodominately liberal and way out of line for considering one of America's greatest patriots, Michael Savage, a "terrorist"; they added his name to their so called terrorist list.
Why? Because Michael Savage promotes Christian American Conservative views on his talk show, The Savage Nation. Thus, liberals, who do not believe in a Nation Under God, or anything conservative, will do whatever it takes to wipe out all of us-real Americans from spreading the truth, in the fight against liberalism.
We are at war with real terrorism, which is the enemy trying to destroy our America Under God. I don't have a voice in society to defend Michael Savage, but I will honor his injustice by never spending another dime on British fuel. Chevron, here I come.

Wallet Stolen in 1982 Found in Tree
By: PHILIP MESSING
A woman whose wallet was swiped in Central Park 27 years ago got a blast from the past when it was discovered last week stuffed inside the hollow of a dying cherry tree.
"I remember it like it was yesterday," said Upper East Side resident Ruth Bendik, 69, referring to Oct. 24, 1982, when her wallet was snatched as she watched the New York City Marathon.
"I was in the park, walking over to greet the runners after they finished, and I was in a crush of people, and all of a sudden, I realized my purse felt very light."
The wallet was found Tuesday by Josh Galiley, 32, a tree-care supervisor for the Central Park Conser vancy, after he took down a dying black cherry tree near Rumsey Playfield at East 72nd Street.
The blue leather wallet -- with no cash inside except for a 1982 penny -- was encrusted in dirt.
Severely discolored plastic photo holders encased credit cards from such long-ago city institutions as Bell Telephone and Manufacturers Hanover Trust Bank, as well as a student ID from Columbia University Teachers College and an employee ID from Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center.
The only thing missing was her $20.
After Galiley and two park workers cut the tree into large pieces, he began to root about inside a hollow to finish the job.
"I started poking around with a shovel a little more, and it was at the base of the hole. It was clearly a woman's wallet at the bottom of five feet of compost," he said.
Galiley turned the wallet over to Central Park Precinct cops, and Detective Frank Irizarry returned it to Bendik a day later.
Bendik, a health-care professional who is a patron of the Central Park Conservancy, said she had often thought of having a tree or a bench named for herself in the park.
"I am thinking that after I am dead, maybe I ought to leave a part of me in the park," she said, "never expecting that I really was already part of the park."

The $17,500 Video Game
by: Mike Smith
Think $60 video games are too expensive? You won't hear any argument from us, but you might from JJ Hendricks, a collector who just paid a clinically insane $17,500 for an obscure NES game from 1990.
The game in question is an ultra-rare, gold-colored version of Nintendo World Championships, a cartridge specially produced for use in a Nintendo-sponsored gaming contest. According to Wikipedia only 26 were created, and Hendricks calls it the "Holy Grail" of video game collectors.
The game itself has a time limit of just 6 minutes and 21 seconds and consists of three short segments from other NES games: Super Mario Bros., Tetris, and Rad Racer. Players are scored according to their performance in each game, and their scores are totaled once the time limit expires. Doesn't sound too riveting to us, but then somehow we doubt Hendricks is in it for the gameplay.
And while $17,500 might seem a bit much for a collection of ones and zeroes, Hendricks actually got a bargain: the game was originally listed on eBay for a cool $25,000.
