Proud members of the Vast Right Wing Conspiracy. We strongly believe in personal freedom, responsibility, and gun rights. We also believe in the 90/10 theory. That means that 10% of the people have 90% of the talent. Unfortunately, we are not in the 10% category. However, the rest of us are still better than 90% of the politicians.

Ahh, Michigan, how...bizarre

The state of Michigan has found a new way to spend federal highway traffic funds.  They're going to use them to fight drunk driving by buying urinal cakes.

Talking urinal cakes. 

Talking urinal cakes that say, "“Listen up. That’s right, I’m talking to you. Had a few drinks? Maybe a few too many? Then do yourself and everyone else a favor: Call a sober friend or a cab. Oh, and don’t forget to wash your hands.”

They are buying 400 to place in 200 restaurants and bars and at $21.00 each this will only cost the taxpayers $8,400.00.  It is Michigan, so I won't even ask if they could have thought of something better to spend it on.

They are the only product of Wizmark (see what they did with that?) the company that makes them.  

You know, I must have had a million ideas that were just a crazy and never put them to use.  If I'd considered just what kind of thing you can sell to the government I'd be rich by now.

  1. How about urinal cakes that change color based on how many drinks you have had...

  2. I'll bet they'd buy those, too. Wonder how much they could retail for, keeping in mind that the main/only customer would be the government so the sky's the limit.
