Salesforce Buys Co-CEO Block a $212K Car and an $87K Watch

Salesforce Buys Co-CEO Block a $212K Car and an $87K Watch:  Its being reported that San Francisco-based Salesforce has just gifted their co-CEO Keith Block a $211,703 car and an $86,423 watch "in recognition of Mr. Block's leadership achievements.”

My word, those must have been some really incredible achievements!  Of course, now all the skeptics are gonna climb out of the woodwork and claim that actions like this only further prove how “the system is rigged.”  I’m looking at you Bernie and AOC fans!  

Come on, just because the board of directors wants to reward one of their bosses with a few nice gifts, doesn’t make it wrong - does it?  And so what if those gifts happen to be so insanely expensive they would even make an Ayn Rand blush?  Lighten up, it’s only money - corporate money!     

That said, I do happen to have a few lingering questions though.  Like, why did they get him a $212K car?  I mean, the guy lives and works in downtown San Francisco.  Have you ever been to San Francisco?  It’s a city on the tip of a tiny little peninsula.  Why the whole place is only about 250 feet across at its widest point.  Where in the hell is he gonna drive anyway?  Wouldn’t a monthly pass on the Muni or the BART have been a bit more practical?

And then, it looks as if the board must have had some second thoughts about buying Block a $212K car and decided “gee, this car isn’t really showing enough appreciation for all of Mr Block's leadership achievements - we’d better go out and get him an $87K watch too.”  

Now, I don’t know a whole lot about expensive watches, but I do know one thing.  Now that they’ve bought him a watch that costs nearly twice as much as most folks make in a year - if someone at Salesforce ever comes up to him and asks if he knows what time it is - he’d better damn well know!

Marjorie Taylor Greene Claims Pete Buttigieg Emasculating Driving With Electric Cars

During a segment on Neil Cavuto’s Fox News program, US Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg was told by the host that Marjorie Taylor Greene is claiming "Mr. Buttigieg is trying to emasculate the way we drive" by supporting electric vehicles.  In response, Buttigieg told Cavuto that “my sense of manhood is not connected to whether my vehicle is fueled by gasoline, or whether it's fueled by electricity.”  When asked by Cavuto if he was offended by what Greene said, Buttigieg remarked "To be honest, there are other members of Congress that I pay more attention to when I'm thinking about opinions that really matter.” Oh, come on now!  Let’s get real.  It would take a helluva lot more than an electric car to “emasculate” Marjorie Taylor Greene.  Besides, I’m pretty sure “real men” actually ride horses, anyway.  Of course, I’m certainly no psychiatrist, but it sounds like Greene’s anger could be a combination of both “road rage” and “roid rage,” leaving her...

Mike Huckabee Claims COVID-19 Death Risk Small and Sin Risk Lethal

Mike Huckabee Claims COVID-19 Death Risk Small and Sin Risk Lethal:   Former Republican presidential candidate Mike Huckabee has stirred some controversy with medical professionals by claiming that the risk of death from coronavirus is very “minimal,” but “sin is 100% lethal. Oh, really Mike?  Then how about showing me a death certificate which lists “sin” as the primary cause of death.  Of course, the fact is, sin couldn’t be 100% lethal, or a guy like me wouldn’t even be alive to write this.   On the other hand, maybe you’re on to something Mike - and sin really is lethal, and I secretly used a “ghostwriter” to write this joke. https://www.johnnyrobishcomedy.com

Trump Takes to Truth Social to Spread ‘Roomer’ About Ron DeSantis

Former president Donald Trump just shared some juicy gossip about Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis on his Truth Social platform.   Trump posted, “Roomer (sic) are (sic) strong in political circles that Ron DeSanctimonious, whose Presidential run is a shambles, and whose poll numbers have absolutely crashed, putting him 3rd and 4th in some states, will be dropping out of the Presidential race in order to run, in Florida, against Rick Scott for Senate.   Now that’s an interesting one, isn’t it?” Gee, Donald Trump spreading “roomers?”  Say it ain’t so!   Now, me thinks perhaps that prestigious Wharton School of Business Trump attended might want to consider adding some basic 3rd-grade spelling classes to its curriculum.   Apparently, Trump is stalled at that level of language development where he is still spelling words phonetically.   Why his poor spelling makes him look like a real “looser.”   Frankly, I’m not sure its a wise choice for Republicans to choose ...
