You are invited to Bubbles Big Bodaciously Bad Birthday Bash as party of our usual Thursday Thirteen.

PDS - THE MONDAY EDITION
McCain: This
is not the first time that I've seen a governor being questioned by
some quote, "expert." I remember that Ronald Reagan was a "cowboy."
President Clinton was a governor of a very small state that had "no
experience" either. (laughter) I remember how easy it was gonna be for
Bush I to defeat him. I still recall, whoops, that one. But the point
is I've seen underestimation before. I'm very proud of the excitement

CHINESE ACCOUNTABILITY
The poor little Cadbury bunny must be terribly depressed these days. Now we're truly in a "crises". The Chinese manufactures for Cadbury chocolate are pulling their products.

When the world's chocolate candy supply is compromised, things are truly serious! (just sarcasm). Cadbury says the amount of candy made in the factory in China is small, but that's not the point. How far does this mess go?
