Some of you may be catching wind of a story about some state level Michigan Republicans huffing and puffing because a female representative said the word “vagina” on the floor of the House.
Ignore this story. It is a sideshow.
Instead, please turn your attention to this guy. His name is Bruce Rendon, and he is a state representative from a tiny little backwater town in northwest bumble-fuck Michigan with a population of less than 1000.
Bruce Rendon is not an evil man, just a simple one. He has an associates degree in how to draw a straight line. He’s in the construction business just like his daddy used to be, and his idea of a god-fearing good time is judging dairy cows at county fairs. That’s fine. The world needs men who pin prize ribbons on cattle, but those men should not be given the power to legislate the complexities of biomedical ethics. That’s how wars on women get started.
You see, this pointy-headed numnard recently introduced House Bill 5711, a ham-fisted piece of legislation that’s being called the nation’s most restrictive anti-abortion bill. All the ridiculousness on the floor of the Michigan House is a direct result of this ignorant piece of draconian drivel.
It’s unsophisticated men like Bruce Rendon who in their righteousness are fucking things up for the rest of us, and though he may not be an evil man, that doesn’t make him any less an enemy, and I personally believe it’s always a good thing to know your enemy’s name.
Go fuck yourself, Bruce Rendon.

This is what £120,000 looks like…£60k in cash and £60k worth of Rolex MilSub (Military issue Submariner)…

This was a sale that took place last year. The owner of the Sub thought the watch was worth around £1k, and listed it for sale on eBay. The watch came to the attention of a very serious vintage Rolex collector, Mike Woods.

Mike drove to see the watch in person to authenticate it and purchase it for himself initially, but upon meeting the seller changed his mind. Not about the watch, which was an absolutely genuine untouched military issued Rolex, but about purchasing it himself. Instead, he took pictures and said he would help the seller get the most money he could for it. The reason for this is that the watch being sold belonged to the gentleman’s father, who was very ill. It was hoped that the money from the sale of the watch would go towards his medical bills and upkeep.

Mike posted the pictures up on various Rolex collectors boards worldwide, and leant his reputation to the fact that it was a genuine MilSub.

The auction caught fire on eBay, and the watch sold for a price of £60,000.

The buyer flew in from overseas and met both Mike and the seller in person, paid in crispy 50 pound notes and flew back home. Mike was offered a commission for the sale, but politely turned it down.

Sometimes it’s nice to write about something genuinely good for a change…*checks bank balance and cries*
