FATHER OF THE YEAR

Asa North, 24, of Carrollton was arrested on Friday

CARROLLTON, Ga.— Police charged a father with manslaughter Friday in the deaths of his 15-month-old twin girls, alleging that he had been drinking before leaving them in their car seats in 90-degree temperatures.

Witnesses heard screams and saw Asa North running as he carried the toddlers from the parking lot in front of their home to an inflatable pool out back. Neighbors joined him, frantically trying to revive the girls with water and ice packs. Emergency responders later tried CPR.

DRINKING

Well ya see, Norm, it’s like this…. A herd of buffalo can only move as fast as the slowest buffalo. And when the herd is hunted, it is the slowest and weakest ones at the back that are killed first. This natural selection is good for the herd as a whole, because the general speed and health of the whole group keeps improving by the regular killing of the weakest members. In much the same way, the human brain can only operate as fast as the slowest brain cells. Excessive intake of alcohol, as we know, kills brain cells. But naturally, it attacks the slowest and weakest brain cells first. In this way, regular consumption of beer eliminates the weaker brain cells, making the brain a faster and more efficient machine. That’s why you always feel smarter after a few beers.

PASS THE BOTTLE

Real median household income is down 8% in the last seven years. Mortgage applications are down 60% in the last seven years. Wage growth is non-existent. Healthcare premiums are increasing at double digit rates. Food prices are skyrocketing. Savers get .15% on their money. But, the stock market is at all-time highs. And corporate profits and stock buybacks are at record levels.

Things are just so fucking great, it’s driving people to drink. No wonder the MSM is reporting consumer confidence is at a seven year high. Everyone they interviewed was drunk.
