Potpourri IIIA


Goldman Sachs is buying into the prison business. Their rewards come only if there is a reduction in recidivism. Sort of the carrot coming after the stick.

Donald Trump is to receive the Statesman of the Year Award from Sarasota (FL) County one day prior to the opening of the Republican convention in nearby Tampa. Perhaps his "coloring" is being rewarded for promoting the "orange" crop.

Well, the Olympics are over and the little sailing town of Weymouth, England can get back to normalcy. Weymouth is the town where the owner of the sausage factory was chastised by the Olympic committee for hanging five rings of sausage. Now the torch has been passed to Brasil and our sausage maker said he might move to Rio or something to see what I can do to wind people up.
(per NYTimes Weymouth Journal) - So, Cariocas, I hope you like your sausage but don't ask the ingredients.
