c'mon down to my boat, baby

we can go fishin' in my little red boat...



ok while the rightwing trust-fund conservatives in town have been blaming public workers for nearly everything, publishing the public workers' salaries as some sort of political dildo, and touting the wonders of non-profits.... I of course have been looking at these tax-exempt thingies and have seen some scoundrels giving non-profits a black eye..the Santa Barbara County Taxpayer Association has lost all credibility with Lanny and Joe's very public drug issues....and the Botanic Garden was paying  a lofty salary to  that Arizona crook who finally departed....oh, there's plenty more...of course there are many worthy non-profits run by ethical people...but I'm really not interested in those...honest people bore me..I'm not looking for every mother's son here...

ahh...but the shady ones....it seems the shady people in nonprofits are making money hand over fist and some of the folks own boats and yachts at the Harbor! nothing wrong with owning a nice boat mind you..unless you get it from money you didn't earn!

well, I can play political dildo too!

"The word "dildo" originally referred to the phallus-shaped peg used to lock an oar in position on a dory (small boat)


now let's see..Channelkeeper has a craft called guess what "Channelkeeper" and it's listed as a recreational boat...do the Channelkeeper gals use dildos to row their boats I wonder??

Dr. Laura and Lew have a boat called "Another Boat"....Dr. Laura got rich by lying and cheating and fraud! ooowww, they have another one called "Katana"....and another called "Perfect"...

the FOUNDATION FOR HARMONY AND HAPPINESS has a boat named "Casa Del Mar"

a board member at the Santa Barbara Historical Museum has a boat at the Harbor...hmmmmm

geez, Fess Parker's got a rig down there called the "Guardian"...hey anybody actually see Fess die and get buried??

SUNBURST CHURCH OF SELF REALIZATION has a floater called "Rose of Glory"...

Wendy's got a big boat but nothing at the harbor that I could see...do ya think Wendy uses a dildo to float her boat??

I don't know...but let's make some waves!!

You need to check out the United Way. They are the shakedown, strong arm, non-profit of non-profits and they do it in the name of other non-profits good name.

The News-Press, back when it was owned by the New York Times, had rules against soliciting. Exempt, however, was the United Way, which annually would inundate employee mail slots with payroll deduction forms. United Way would solicit employees to become "team captains," with the promise of prizes for those who got the most signups from their co-workers. There was suspicion that management was monitoring who donated and who didn't.

I used to give to the United Way years ago until the CEO was busted for embezzling funds to fix up his house and go on trips!

Not the United Way, particularly, but too many nonprofits these days seem more interested in money and media attention than in helping people and causes. They're like rogue corporations with high-earning CEOs who've said "screw you" to the shareholders.
