"Slaughterhouse Worker Uses Simple Strategies To
Become A Millionaire" - that's the headline of an ad
written by Russ Whitney.

There is now a proposed regulation to set a 10' height
limit here in Florida that regulates "donkey
diving." (I kid you not.) The sponsor, Representative
Suzanne Jacobs, Democrat, Delray Beach, said the legislation
is needed because exhibitions featuring horses and mules
jumping into a pool of water is not yet covered by existing
state laws on cruelty to animals.

"The most memorable aspect of them [donkey diving] is the fear and
disorientation you notice on the animals' faces after they hit
the water," says Joe Taksel. He continues, "This
is a belly flop times ten."

One
of our legislators is pushing to get the donkey diving height
limit raised to 15 feet. However, the Bill originally drafted,
lowered the limit to only 5 feet. Personally, I think we need
to put a lot of thought into this piece of legislation.

P.

A
new tribe of people has been discovered in the Amazon Jungle
in Brazil near the border of Peru. There are only about 200
members of this tribe and they live not on the ground but,
just beneath the forest canopy. This is great breaking
news... because... it is an untapped market. It is a pocket of
people that, in my opinion, are in desperate need of a
McDonald's and a place to buy "Twisters" at KFC.

Q.

In
Japan, there is a company called Medic which markets small
range jammers which will stop cell phones from working in
movies and other public places. (And all along, I thought
there were "Cell Phone Gods.")
