The infamous Quincy Jones' lollipop scene.

When 'the artist formerly known as Prince' went to war with his record label due to contractual demands placed on him demanding that he record 1 record a year, he responded by changing his name to a mere symbol in order to legally loophole his way out of the deceptive corporate contract. The record company (Warner Brothers) wanted him to make more money, for them and not more meaningful work. When his name as a symbol was left unrecognized by mogul Quincy Jones at the 1995 'WE ARE THE WORLD' reunion, he responded with an on-air lollipop suck (a sucker offering to Quincy). lol. Prince reclaimed his name in 2000, after the contract matter was resolved. He was a brilliant guy.

'EMS found unresponsive adult male in the elevator'

Dearly beloved we are gathered here today to get through this thing called life electric word life it means forever and that's a mighty long time But I'm here to tell you there's something else the after world A world of never ending happiness You can always see the sun, day or night so when you call up that shrink in Beverly Hills you know the one, Dr. Everything'll be alright instead of asking him how much of your time is left ask him how much of your mind, baby 'cause in this life things are much harder than in the after world In this life You're on your own
and if the 'elevator' tries to bring you down go crazy, punch a higher floor.
Goodbye, Prince.

-This is what it sounds like when doves cry-

"They should put Prince on the $20 bill and call it $19.99. It's "The bill formerly known as a twenty."

WTF! OMG! R.I.P.??! IT WILL RAIN, PURPLE RAIN!!! :(

Fox ( ECU )

Like Ferris Bueller did on his day off, this fox is having a ball breaking down the fourth wall rule of filmmaking. Bye.

Angry Birds is not gest(sic) an app.

A drone crashed into a commercial plane in the UK this week as it departed Heathrow. No injuries were incurred, and the plane landed fine, contrary to the reputation of regulatory drone management. Rules and regulations are in place, but rarely followed by remote controlled enthusiasts. Frozen turkeys, literally, are used to test the effects of bird collisions on plane engines and thrown into plane engines, but no tests have started yet for testing drone crashes - to date. Drones are now being programmed to capture other drones using nets! Crazy. Mass drone hunting conducted by programmed drones is like imagining Arnold Swarznegger 'Terminators' going fishing for dinner at genetically engineered salmon airborne fisheries. I wonder if the current drone craze is a faze that will fizz out like the 1980's Rubiks Cube. Or Millie Vanilli (both members were lip -synching battery operated jive turkeys). Well if so, 'Blame it on the Rain.'

Bye.

"Libertarianism is starting to smell really good now, much tastier than blood money. bye again."

$20 dollars and change.

Lew said he made the decision to make Tubman the new face of the $20 after hearing from the American people through roundtables, town halls and in online discussions.

“We heard from a lot of people who had different ideas about what should go on which bill, what should go on the front, what should be on the back, and we’ve taken the view that, A) we couldn’t wait, and B) the next bill that comes out has to tell a powerful story,” Lew told reporters.

“The life of Harriet Tubman is really one of the great American stories,” Lew added later, noting that Tubman “was not well compensated for much of her life.”

Jackson was a slave holder, so it looks like karma has finally kicked in :)

* Ben Carson, fresh off beating Ted Cruz in a New York House district during Tuesday's GOP primary, weighed in on the newest face of the $20 bill, Harriet Tubman.

His suggestion: Maybe she should be on a bill that’s worth less?

Carson’s comment came Wednesday on Fox Business Network's Cavuto Coast to Coast, where he spoke with host Neil Cavuto.

“Well I think Andrew Jackson was a tremendous secretary. I mean a tremendous president,” Carson, a former GOP presidential candidate who now backs Donald Trump, said of the soon-to-be former face of the twenty.

“Andrew Jackson was the last president who actually balanced the federal budget, where we had no national debt,” Carson said. “In honor of that, we kick him off of the money.”

“Are you anti-Harriet Tubman?” Cavuto asked, presumably meaning anti-putting-Tubman-on-the-$20-bill and not anti-Tubman, just, in general.

“No, I love Harriet Tubman,” said Carson. “I love what she did. But we can find another way to honor her. Maybe a $2 bill.”

The $2 bill was last issued in 2003.

(damn, you just can't make this stuff up).
