Don't You Wonder.....

* How is it that Bernie Madoff can send "gifts" worth millions of dollars to friends and relatives while he remains on house arrest because of the "ponzi" scheme? Seriously, this guy took money from his clients and used it for his personal gain. Now, according to the NY Times, Madoff ".....is under 24-hour house arrest in his $7 million Manhattan apartment....." $7 million dollars? How can he mail diamonds and watches to relatives as gifts while he remains under investigation? Besides, who sends gifts worth millions of dollars to friends and family? I think the government should take those items to pay back his victims.

* Former Minnesota Sen. Norm Coleman (his term has expired) is doing his part to tie up the courts in order to overturn the vote in the senatorial race in his state. Why, Norm? Why do you bother? Give it up, Norm!

* What was that chainsaw carrying man thinking when he attacked his neighbor's door?
Philly.com: An eastern Pennsylvania man may face up to 37 years in prison for tearing open a neighbor's door with a chain saw. Police say 34-year-old Robert Kane began sawing through the front door of Jamie Zaleski's apartment in Scranton while Zaleski and several friends ran out the back.

Kane was angry because a friend of Zaleski's parked in front of his house across the street. Police said when Zaleski asked who was at the door, Kane said it was his worst nightmare, told him, "Open the door or I'll cut it down," and started sawing.....

Why did he need a chainsaw to communicate with his neighbor?

* Don't you wonder what your family and friends would say if you bought a replica of the White House? The New York Times is reporting that a house that is a downsized duplicate of the White House is for sale. This might be your lucky day if you have $9.88 million.
