The American Investigation - Day Five
2008-10-06 01:13:00 As my last day in Tampa draws to an end I feel that I must find the good about Americans and their beloved country! I thus set out today on a positive note! I went walking to find the good, to remain unbiased and without drawing on the constant negative that seems to haunt my footsteps whichever which way I turn!Tampa is a nice place. It is an orderly city of blocks and buildings, it has a lovely river walk that meanders gently around the created islands .......... Och, I can't do this! I can't tell porky-pies!Certainly, Tampa is a nice place but when I went walking, on a Sunday at 11am I was astounded! The parks, the lovely river walk and the town were devoid of the one required ingredient - I was the only person out and about! The only areas that could boast activity was a smaller park where the homeless obviously congregated to swap sob stories and the Tampa General Hospital. I got lost and ended up wandering though the middle of the hospital to find the place overcrowded with ...
The American Investigation - Day Four
2008-10-05 04:33:00 I?ve been watching allot of television recently! Not allot in the sense that I sit for hours like a genetically modified potato but simply that I flick through so many channels in a desperate attempt to find something even remotely interesting to watch!I typically get back to the hotel in the evening! I am tired and would like nothing more than to put my feet up in front of the box to watch something good! It is this last bit that I can?t seem to get to grips with! There?s allot of American football to watch; there is even more channels with experts talking about American Football in forceful ways! OJ Simpson might have been doing this had he not been held up in jail today! I?ve never understood American Football!And then there are many other channels with many very expert experts who don?t pause for breath or blink whilst enforcing their expertise down poor viewer?s throats! I found one channel with a nice lady on it and even took my finger off the button ? but it was in fact an ad...
The American Investigation - Day Three
2008-10-04 01:30:00 I am in Tampa, Florida - the sunshine state is that you say? Beautiful weather! Nice and cool in the evenings; nice and hot in the day!For breakfast I have a glass of very fresh orange juice! Not a tinsy-wincy glass as found in the UK but a man-sized pull! All the dishes are big here! I cannot finish anything! Yesterday I ordered a salad, something light I thought but ended up with a whole vegetable garden drowned in enough dressing to sink a ship! I left half of it and the waitress asked me if there was something wrong! The locals certianly don't have a problem with these extremely large dishes! I saw a man today, he was working on a ship and had to walk up the gangway sideways, huffing and puffing as he waddled up to get to the top where the thin people stood! He is a tank inspector! His job is to go down tanks to test the atmosphere, to ensure that the tank has enough oxygen in it for others to work safely within! There was no feasible way for him to get into a tank; they just d...
The American Investigation - Day Two
2008-10-03 03:38:00 I am walking along the road and I feel scared! Not sure why as it is only 8pm and nobody is around! I think that is the scary bit! Here I am in downtown Tampa and nobody, I mean nobody, is out walking! Not a soul to be seen anywhere!There are plenty of cars rolling around! Enormous gas-munching, large tyre monster trucks with dark-tinted windows! Could just be a lawyer going home after working late or perhaps a kerb crawler looking for a cheap and nasty blow-job or a gang of youths out for a fight with some pale Scotsman! How am I supposed to know?I walked from the Tampa Port Authority building on Channelside Drive, onto Meridian and then onto Jackson Street which runs through the heart of the business side of Tampa! It was dark and creepy and not a soul was in sight!Some church bells rang! A mournful expression of destitution in an otherwise creepy surround!I have managed to get most of the way along Jackson Street and I can see the Bank Of America building ahead ? my hotel lies ju...
The American Investigation - Day One
2008-10-01 20:55:00 In the face support for Obama and Biden outside a house in Tampa - and the forgotten environment behindI am here, on American Soil to conduct an investigation! I want to see what is really going down, I want to talk at the grass roots level to the people who matter and I want to see what they say about Obama and McCain, and I want to see if the Credit Crunch has in fact made everybody forget that last weeks topic was about the environment and not money and I want to try and find some sense amongst the daily stupidity that reaches us in Britain!I flew from Amsterdam to Atlanta on a KLM flight and I managed to listen in to an interesting conversation! The large American couple sitting behind were peering out of the window as the planes wheels left the tarmac: ?Maybe when we get high enough (the plane I suppose) we can see the tulips, the wife said as she applied some lipstick on lips that had not seen daylight since she popped out all those years ago!?Well, I hope so, but it is the fa...

House Investigation Into Plaintiff Lawyer Kickbacks on Class Action Cases?
2008-05-11 06:58:00 Tulsa settlement planner Robert Risk's February 13th "man of class and grace", disgraced class action lawyer William Lerach, reports to Federal Prison on May 19, 2008 after pleading guilty to charges of criminal conspiracy in conjunction with a class action scheme. Two Republican members of the House of Representatives, John Boehner (R-OH) and Lamar Smith (R-TX) recently suggested that Congress has ignored the steadily unfolding scandal and call for a hearing. "If in fact the crimes committed by Mr. Lerach and his colleagues are an 'industry practice' as Mr. Lerach himself confessed, then the United States Congress is sitting idle while criminal behavior in the trial lawyer industry threatens American jobs and feeds like a parasite on the prosperity of working families" Boehner stated in a letter to House Judiciary Chairman John Conyers (D-MI) dated May 2, 2008.

FreePress Urges Further Investigation Into Pentagon's News Pundits
2008-04-30 01:01:00 The New York Times published an article by David Barstow exposing a media Trojan horse. If you're not familiar with what a Trojan horse is, it's commonly used to describe a computer virus. In this case, it's meant to desribe a virus spreading in the mass media. An investigation by the Times uncovered military analysts and retired military officers that were showing up on network news to appear objective and discuss terrorism and the Iraq War--after being given briefings from the White House, State Department, and Justice Department (including Vice President Dick Cheney himself, and former Secretary Donald Rumsfeld). They'd been given talking points; and internal Pentagon documents repeatedly referred to these people as message force multipliers, surrogates, and those counted on to deliver the current administration's themes and messages to America.

Jam Master Jay Murder Twist: 'Person Of Interest' In Investigation Sentence
2008-04-25 18:20:00 Judge declines to consider Ronald 'Tinard' Washington's alleged involvement in murder.By Rahman Dukes and Bernard Lumpkin Jam Master Jay Photo: Glen E. Friedman (Burning Flags Press) BROOKLYN, New York — The Jam Master Jay murder investigation took another turn Wednesday when Ronald "Tinard" Washington, who has been implicated by two unnamed witnesses in Jay's murder, was sentenced in federal court to 17 years in prison and three years' supervised release. The sentencing follows the defendant's conviction last year on a series of robbery charges dating back to 2002. Prosecutor Sean Haran argued for a stronger sentence for Washington "due to the defendant's involvement in two separate murders," presumably referring to the murders of Jay and Tupac Shakur's bodyguard Randy "Stretch" Walker, but Federal Judge Nina Gershon declined to consider the murders in her decision. "If it was such an overwhelming case, someone would have prosecuted him, instead of hanging ...

Sergeant Fired After Brothel Investigation
2008-04-24 21:07:00 You are a cop and the boss sends you to investigate a possible brothel. Do you: A) Stakeout the building and look for a pattern of random dudes. B) Enter the building and inquire about paying for sex. C) Have sex with one of the girls in the alleged brothel. You know, just to be sure. A police sergeant (not the guy pictured) in London decided to do his thinking with his little head as opposed to his big head and chose option C. Option C got the sergeant laid but it also got him fired. Now sure he shouldn’t have had sex with a prostitute, but in all honestly the guy did in fact confirm the building was a brothel and wasn’t that his original assignment? Original Story: Yahoo News NOTE: Yes, I am going for a multiple choice list trifecta today.

Jeep Liberty could face recall: Government upgrades investigation into SUV
2008-04-22 17:47:00 It seems that there could very well be a new Jeep Liberty recall on the 2002-2003 models SUV; this comes to light after the government has upgraded their investigation as to why the vehicles are losing control. A total of 22 complaints have so far been received by The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, because of a problem with the ball joint which actually separates from either of the front wheels. This is a very bad safety issue as one of the front wheels could collapse, and as you know that would cause the drive to lose control of the Sports-Utility- Vehicle. The problem with the ball joint has affected over 300,000 Chrysler Jeep Liberty SUV’s and covers the 2002 and 2003 models. According to Max Gates a spokesperson from Chrysler, over 74 complaints have been received by them which is why the automaker is continuing its investigation into the problem however; thankfully there are no reports of any injuries. The people who have made complaints has said that the bal...
