National Public Radio Asks A Tough Question

Posted: November 15th, 2010 | Author: Dr. Bill Stillwell | No Comments »

I didn’t read a newspaper, magazine, listen to radio, or watch
television last week, in an attempt to cleanse my brain of all the
drivel that has accumulated in there, during the past year. It was a
glorious seven days, but sooner or later, all good things come to an
end.

Today, I turned on the radio and somehow, National Public Radio came
on. I must have bumped an automatic button, because I normally never
listen to that station. I was in my car and traffic was a bit
tricky, so I couldn’t fiddle with the tuner to get what I wanted.

This is what they were discussing: It seems that the price of grain,
or grains, has gone up considerably since last year. For example,
corn is selling about a buck fifty more per bushel than at the same
time last year. Wheat is very similar and… I can feel you starting
to go to sleep. But an intrepid NPR reporter can keep any
conversation flowing, so she asked the speaker, whoever he was, “I
hear what you’re saying, Bob, but why hasn’t this been reflected in
the price of Corn Flakes?”

Now that was a “Stump the Band” question, if I ever heard one, and
actually quite funny, if you think about it for a minute. But Bob
was non plussed and patiently explained the different market
sectors, the order of harvests, storage and how long it actually
took the market to reflect the rise in price, in the supermarket.
Thankfully, for you, me and the rest of civilization, traffic
thinned out and I was finally able to change the station.

On the new station I tuned into, there was an interesting story
about an Australian man, who cheated death.

Now, we’re talking important world news and not corn flakes.

As it turns out, the Aussie who cheated death was a grafitti vandal
who tagged (painted) a power station with his identity (Wino). He
and his fellow taggers cut through two eight-foot metal fences, with
signs that said, “Danger – High Voltage”. Oh…and it was raining
…which may be what saved this fool’s life.

After leaving his “Wino” marker, the twenty-two year old decided to
urinate…on the transformer…whereupon, he was thrown for quite a
loop…after sustaining third degree burns to 40% of his body.
Police and hospital spokesmen say that the fact that his clothing
was soaked from the rain probably caused the 22,000 volts to bypass
his body.

It also blew the power station, costing hundreds of thousands of
dollars in damages and forced a local rail line to close. No charges
have been filed against the young man, because as the police say,
he’s going to be in recovery for a long time…so there is no hurry.

This is the kind of important thing you might miss, if you take a
week long break from what is going on in the world around you. It’s
certainly proof of why no one, with anything on the ball, listens to
NPR and why NPR needs tax money to stay on the air. You give people
a choice between the price of corn flakes and an Aussie relieving
himself on a super transformer, they’ll take the Aussie, 999 times
out of 1000.

Which is how it should be.

Over at the White House, the Obama folks are suffering from
disconnect and discombobulation, all brought on (no doubt) by their
failure to take my Powerhouse Omega Formula. Had they been taking my
Formula, they probably would not have been so embarrassed by the
Chinese, at the G20 Summit. Obama lectured the Chinese on finances
again, telling them not to manipulate their currency. The Chinese
then lectured Obama on the $600 billion the Fed is printing and
injecting into the economy. (Whoops…he did it again!)

I guess he thought no one was watching, or that the Chinese didn’t
understand that “stimulus” is currency manipulation. If you take my
pharmacuetical grade fish oil, harvested from the deep arctic waters
of Norway, you would never make that mistake, because your brain
would actually be working:

I’ll be back tomorrow with more.

With my best wishes for your optimum health,
