Miss Puerto Rico, Destiny Velez has been suspended indefinitely for a number of angry anti-Muslim tweets – “Muslims use our constitution to terrorize USA & plant gas stations,” and Muslims “terrorize this country & many others.”
So did Ms. Velez think that Trump would help her win Miss Universe? Or was she auditioning to be his next wife?

Steve Harvey apologized after he announced the wrong winner of the Miss Universe – saying it was Miss Columbia when it should have been Miss Philippines. Thereby causing much emotional trauma to both young women and all those who had bet either of them in fantasy pageants.

Some talk about Hillary Clinton’s delayed return to the stage last night after a commercial break. Well, maybe even during a debate there’s a line for the women’s room?

A Swedish study of twins found that anxious people are one and a half times more likely to develop dementia. Great, one more thing to feel anxious about.

Apparently Martin Shkreli, a former student, gave a $1 million donation to NYC’s Hunter College High School, which is a public school for gifted students. And now the school is trying to decide what to do with the $$$. Well, suppose they could always keep it and make this year’s play a production of “Major Barbara.”

(for all those who didn’t read George Bernard  Shaw in high school or college , Google it.  Good play :-))

Thousands of empty seats available this morning on Stubhub for the Bengals-49ers game at Levi’s Stadium. Wonder how much the team was offering to pay fans to come?

Just imagine how good the ‪#‎Redskins‬ might be if they hadn’t given away the farm to get RGIII?

–

Congress’s year-end spending bill has a provision, which apparently has been in for years, saying that no federal funds “may be used to maintain or establish a computer network unless such network blocks the viewing, downloading and exchanging of pornography.” Wonder if someone managed to write that with a straight face.

Donald Trump today on Hillary Clinton “She lies like crazy about everything,” So considering the source is that an attack or a compliment?

On “Fox News Sunday,” Carly Fiorina was challenged by Chris Wallace on an ad linking her to Margaret Thatcher: “Mrs. Fiorina, respectfully, isn’t that a little over the top?” And Carly’s response “Many people have commented on the comparison and I’m flattered by it, frankly.”
Waiting for someone like Bob Dole or John McCain to respond “I knew Margaret Thatcher, Margaret Thatcher was a friend of mine, Carly, you’re no Margaret Thatcher.”

At least one dead and dozens injured in Las Vegas after a car plowed into a crowd of people on a sidewalk on the Strip. Now, if the NRA was the National Automobile Association they would be screaming for fewer restrictions on driving and saying all those pedestrians should have been in their own cars.
