Members of the Class of 2012,

As a former secretary of labor and current professor, I feel I owe it to you to tell you the truth about the pieces of parchment you’re picking up today.

You’re f*cked.

Well, not exactly. But you won’t have it easy.

First, you’re going to have a hell of a hard…

Eloquently stated…frightening…but well said sir! Hope the US can turn the ship around soon. At 2%GDP we’ve long become a consumption driven country and not a production driven one. Interesting turn of events I’d say.

Very cool work. Enlightening to say the least!

Wooohoooo! Gear is set, cymbals are clean, drums are tuned, keyboard and pa sound fantastic! All that is missing is you! Show starts shortly and we hope to see you out tonight!

I keep trying to move away from Jameson as one of my all time favorite adult beverages. However I find myself gravitating towards it more and more. Granted its not a “boutique” or expensive whiskey…but it is always consistent and in almost every bar. Simple, neat, clean and always good. Thank you John for bringing your enjoyable beverage the US!

Real-life transforming robot car puts Hasbro toys to shame

For once, we’re using the word “Transformer” to mean exactly what you’d expect: not a tablet, toy, lawsuit, video game, or movie. No, this is a small car that automatically turns into a genuine working robot, does so with speed and grace you’ve only dreamed of before, and then proceeds to punch and uppercut its way through any would-be Decepticons. 

Autobots…let’s roll out!
