THESE ARE REALLY, REALLY GOOD HEADLINES!

THESE ARE REALLY, REALLY GOOD HEADLINES! (Frazer Chronicle)

Anybody who stays up to date with the news of the world is a far better person then I am, sometimes I get lost reading the very first article I open up on my computer. I can't seem to get past that first really interesting story which forces me to research a bit to get to the "meat" of the issue at hand.

Sometimes articles that appear in front page type format are there, "of course," for what editors feel are important stories. People like me, who blog about a whole bunch of stuff, you know, "understand a little about lots of different stuff," can get caught up in a single headline. One headline in particular sparked my interest, FLAT BEER PROFITS IN 2012. Right away I'm worried, I like beer, drink beer, and in fact, "beer is my friend."

Will this be a world-wide problem, will beer be "tight," hard to get, in scarce supply, I now worry and wonder. I have to read this article, I have to research.....I have to know. To my relief the article, written by Reuters, was released in Copenhagen, Denmark, and was about Danish beer breweries. I can live without Danish beer, in fact don't even like the stuff, to heavy. The land of the windmills and wooden shoes is not my "cup of beer" as it were.

But you gotta be careful when you do what I do on a Monday.....get the week-end highlights of news that sometimes get lost in the shuffle. Some political high-lights, or low-lights, depending on your point of view,  are purposely announced through the printed media on Saturday's and Sunday's so that they aren't noticed.

The following are some of those headlined articles, now "keep your shirt on," there's a whole bunch more out there, I've just chosen these for today blog, you are more then welcome to make up your own top 10 list, good hunting.

EUROZONE SET TO DECIDE ON GREEK RESCUE:
Surely you jest, Greeks are in the deepest, worst, darkest kind of place with regards to their finances and the people need help. They are a developed country with despicable business practices, stupid retirement practices and they have left their people out to dry.....now the world is going to do the same, I hope not.

OBAMA AND MITT DO THE DRAGON DANCE:
Okay, we get it, Obama's black and Mitt Romney is a stiff white guy that comes from money, how could Romney be as slick on his feet as Obama.....in this case, strike 2 Mitt, your out.

IRAN'S GLOBAL TERROR CAMPAIGN HAS BEEN STIFLED, FOR NOW!
Here we go again, "weapons of mass destruction," guilty by proximity.....I guess. Iraq had W.M.D.'s, no wait.....no they didn't, where did they go? I got it, Iran, the army's of both countries conspired and moved all the bombs, guns and war machines to underground bunkers inside Iran. And now these bastards are going to use them on American citizens.

DEADLY BIRD FLU STUDIES TO STAY SECRET..........FOR NOW!
You must be kidding, this one's hard for me to understand, is keeping the study secret an attempt to keep the birds identity secret?

U.S. MANUFACTURING SEES SHORTAGE OF SKILLED FACTORY WORKERS.
Now I understand that today's industry is, to say the least "more complicated" then in decades ago workforces, but gee, did this sophisticated workforce need happen just last year, or has it been happening over the past 10 to 20 or 30 years?  Maybe, "and I'm just spit-balling here," is industry completely to blame here.

HOMEOWNERS GET RUNAROUND ABOUT WHO HOLDS LOAN!
Paper, Paper, who's got the paper, what is the gag anyways.

TRUTH ABOUT TECHNOLOGY JOBS.
See above U.S. Manufacturing.

USING RAP TO TEACH "PITHY" LESSON IN BUSINESS!
