New Hampshire state Senator Andy Sanborn cracks a joke about the San Francisco plane crash

Wanna see an example of a man who is filled with both a tremendous amount of class and a great sense of humor? Then look no further than Republican New Hampshire state senator Andy Sanborn.

While engaging in a discussion with former state Senator Ray White on WTPL-FM in Concord, New Hampshire, Sanborn said the following when he compared this past weekend's plane crash in San Francisco, which killed two people and injured over 180 others, to Obamacare:

"Now that this thing (Obamacare) is barreling down on us like a jet landing into San Francisco, it's (Sanborn laughs) it should make people really concerned."

The state putz, I mean senator, then told WMUR.com that he had no recollection of making such a comment. The tape was then played for him and he responded by saying, "If I offended anyone, I am sorry."

"If" he offended anyone, he's sorry. Yeah, that's the sign of a genuine apology right there - and don't worry, senator, your cracking a joke and laughing about two people whom were killed and 180 others whom were injured didn't offend a single person.

While he's at it, Mr. Sanborn might as well continue his offensive-not-meant-to-be-offensive comedy tour with the following bits and sincere "apologies":

Sanborn comedy: "Obamacare is going to pound us harder than that woman who was raped in town last week!"

Sanborn apology: "If I offended anyone, I am sorry."


Sanborn comedy: "Obamacare is going to come firing at us harder than the bullets in Newtown!"

Sanborn apology: "If I offended anyone, I am sorry."


Sanborn comedy: "Obamacare is going to cause more destruction than terrorists did to the Twin Towers on 9/11!"

Sanborn apology: "If I offended anyone, I am sorry."


From this point forward, if Mr. Sanborn so much as speaks, he should immediately follow his inevitably stupid commentary by saying, "If I opened my mouth, I am sorry." Yes, as are we all...

Boycotting jukeboxes because of TouchTunes

I love music and enjoy hitting the bar(s) over the weekend, so naturally, when the mood strikes me, I've never been coy about playing some songs on the jukebox. This past Thursday, a friend of mine turned 50, so several friends of her's, including myself, all met up to celebrate the occasion. At around 9:30, a friend of mine and I both chipped in $5 to play some songs on the jukebox. Four hours and 231 skips later, we gave up on hearing the songs we had selected, and went home knowing we had just wasted $5. This wasn't the first time such a thing had happened to me (and many others), and due to that, I'll be boycotting jukeboxes. Why? The scam known as TouchTunes. You see, here's how the plot typically breaks down. A person (or group of people) downloads the TouchTunes app on his/her phone, consumes one too many adult beverages, and due to this, has less care for spending extra money to hear the songs of their choosing right NOW. That's the thing with TouchTun

The difference between "looking" and "checking out"

I may be way off with these numbers, but it's my approximation that at least 75% of individuals whom are involved in a serious relationship feel it's perfectly acceptable to "check out" members of the opposite sex they're not involved with. Meanwhile, approximately 25% either don't feel this is acceptable or aren't sure about the matter. I hadn't thought about this matter for a while, but since I've been dating a woman for about 8 months, the topic has been pondered about some. When reading or hearing others discuss this very issue, I often times hear comments similar to the following: "It's human nature to look." "There's nothing wrong with checking others out. I'm sure he/she does it too!" "It's fine to do it. Just don't tell your boyfriend/girlfriend about it or do it in front of them!" "It's natural to find people attractive." When observing the array of comments, I i

The verdict is in. To no one's surprise, Jonathan Hoenig has been found guilty of being an idiot.

Just recently, when discussing the Michael Brown shooting and whether or not race had anything to do with it, Fox News contributor Jonathan Hoenig said, "You know who talks about race? Racists." One moment while I provide Mr. Hoenig with the well deserved slow-clap. :: slow-claps for two seconds :: So, that was quite the line by Mr. Hoenig, wasn't it? "You know who talks about race? Racists." Well, wasn't he just talking about race? So, by his own words, I guess that makes him a racist. Also, if he wants to be consistent, does this mean that people whom talk about gender are sexists and people whom talk about sexual orientation are homophobes? With that line of thinking, Hoenig would engage in the following back-and-forths: Hoenig: "So, who are you voting for?" A woman: "The Democratic candidate, because he's been adamant about his support for equal rights for women." Hoenig: "You sexist feminist nazi!"
