- I’ve never been a fan of when the White House, no matter the administration, uses executive privilege. I can understand why they may use it, and perhaps there can be a compromise that details won’t be released until two years after the president leaves office. But trying to protect the social services secretary sure does seem a bit too protective. Heck, Gerald Ford testified before congress as president, I always admired that.
- I think the Secret Service is taking the proverbial bullet, and I think it’s a shame the social secretary is being protected.

She’s also a reunion crasher
Before she made it into a White House state dinner without an official invitation, Michaele Salahi made it onto the Redskins alumni cheerleading squad — without ever having been a Redskins cheerleader.
Salahi performed at FedEx Field during halftime of the Redskins-St. Louis Rams game Sept. 20 with a group of 150 former Redskins cheerleaders. Salahi’s rehearsals with the group were filmed by a crew that has been following Michaele Salahi and her husband, Tareq, for possible inclusion on a cable TV reality show, “The Real Housewives of D.C.”
Several former cheerleaders said in interviews that Michaele Salahi’s presence at a rehearsal drew attention because of the TV cameras, but also suspicion because no one seemed to remember her as a cheerleader for the team.
Their doubts were heightened when Salahi couldn’t perform some of the basic cheerleader routines, including the standard choreography for the team’s fight song, “Hail to the Redskins.”
Send Me A Card
For two Christmases I did a little “Bag of Nothing Christmas Card Experiment” seeing who would take the time to send me a Christmas card. I would usually get around 20 or so cards, and they would come from all over the U.S. (mainly Texas) and a few from Canada and Europe.
Last year I didn’t follow up on it, but this year I’m giving you the opportunity to send me a card, and I’m giving you the ability to do it for free.
Thanks to Google, you can send me a card for free, just click here and us this address.
I’ll post updates as I get them, and I promise not to share any personal information that could possible lead to any harm.
If you would rather send me another kind of card, sure, that would be cool as well. Just include a random coupon – I’m just trying to be quirky and wonder what y’all might send me.
Stuff likes this keeps me motivated to blog, and it lets me know that there are people actually out there reading this silly little website.
Either way, just be sure to include “BON” somewhere in the card just so I know it came from a reader.
Thanks!
