Bottom-up-up-up-up-up-up. Broadcasting live from the Abraham Lincoln Radio Studio. The George Washington Broadcast Center. Yeah, Armstrong. And Joe Getty. I'm Strong and Getty. Hey, enough. Here's Armstrong and Getty.

3:01More rages on. We've got more about that coming up this hour. We'll talk a little bit about the whole anthropic Pentagon thing, which is super interesting. Is that just a clash of two completely different dudes? Really interesting, we'll be on it. We got to figure that out, though, because obviously, AI is going to play a role in our government and in our warfare. And we'll get a little of what the latest is on the actual war. This is something completely different. This is Gavin Newsom, governor of California, who's almost certainly running for president. We talked a lot of last week about that thing where he was on stage. I've heard various reports about how much that was a black audience or not. The host was black. A lot of the audience was black. Was it mostly black audience? I don't know. Because originally it was portrayed to me as a black event. And Gavin Newsom said on stage and said, Hey, I'm just like you. I got a terrible grade on my SATs, which is a weird thing to say. You know, hilariously parodied here on the show.

4:02I still think he portrayed his, and then he jumps in. I can't read. You've never seen me read a speech. I can't read. I think he didn't do the best job of laying that out. What's going on there? He has a processing disorder with his brain, like lots of people do. I think I've learned that I do on some things that I just, I read different things that I see. It's very minor. But now, once I discovered it, it's like, Oh, yeah, obviously, I've always done this. His is pretty bad. And I thought this was just really interesting. If you have a processing disorder, if you've got a kid with one, Mark Halperin interviewing Gavin Newsom about his. Can you read a book? I can read. I just have to underline it. I can't read spatially. That's why I can't read a speech mark, because spatially I'll lose the line. So I'll literally, and I wish I had a book here. If you ever lend me a book, that's why I don't go to a library, because I can never return the book. I have to underline. And then what I'll do is I'll take what's underlined,

5:04and then I'll put it out. And this is literally an actual example. I'll just put in piece of paper, everything underlined. And then I'll do that for hours and hours and hours. And then eventually, I'll put it on a little of the Ella card, which will have just quick notes, and then it's in my head. But that's the process. But when everything online, I have to print out. So I take what's online, print out your blog or something, and then underline it, and then put it in here. So it's a process. So you can't read on a phone. You can't read on a phone or an iPad? I can, I just get, I start daydreaming. I start drifting off. So if you're reading my book, say, you can open it, and you just start underlining as you read it. 100% as circles. I make stars, and then I go back, and without exception, I'll go back to every book I read, and then I will write it out. I have hundreds and hundreds of these pads. I thought that was really interesting. I've known a few people explain to me how they, like one with a PhD, how they had to get through school,

6:07like record all lectures, take them home, and then type them out, or something, because they didn't have the ability to process them in any other way, or whatever. I mean, the amount of work you have to do, if you have one of these processing disorders, beyond what the rest of us have to do, to get the same information is just incredible. And then some people either don't or can't put in that amount of work, because it'd be so time-consuming, and then they would really struggle in life. It's probably worth noting that this is not about Gavin Newsom per se. I mean, he's a liar and utterly unprincipled and a scammer and a schemer of 100 different ways. And as my t-shirt indicates, the one I'm wearing today, if he were elected president, he would ruin the entire country. But this is about dyslexia. Yeah, roll on with that, Michael. And this is the gift. This is the gift of dyslexia. I know people want to mock it, and mock people they didn't do well academically. But the gift is a superpower, because it allows you with discipline. It's hard work as the grid. It's what my mom, you know, that's her legacy. It gives you the ability then to be able to absorb a lot,

7:07but also allows you the ability to be much more flexible, allows you the ability to, I think, to just that strength, where others struggle and find weakness. So I don't know anything about that angle of it. But I also thought it was interesting, him say, So, um, I know kids who have this problem of they just, they can't not space out. They can't read two words without spacing out. Well, that's not dyslexia might be ADHD or might be screen addiction, who knows? So he has dyslexia and ADHD, maybe, or I would think he would know. I'm sure he's been tested for all this sort of stuff, but yeah, from what I understand of dyslexia, I don't understand dyslexia as much as I understand ADHD because I know so many people with it, but um, sounds like he has both, uh, that, that's something. And then so because if he under, if he draws, he reads along because he kind of showed

8:07in the video, if he underlines it as he reads along, he can stay focused and read it in the proper order. For some reason, I wonder how he discovered that or if that's true for everybody with dyslexia or only him, I don't know, but I've known a number of people that came up with workarounds just like intuitively or stumbled upon them or whatever workarounds to where they could make their brain work to take in the information, whether record it and listen to it as opposed to read it or is easier to read on like with him. He can do it on paper, but not on the screen, man. Back in the day, I wonder how many of the kids in, in school that we all knew that were just they were dumb kids. They were the dumb kids. And got yelled at and got yelled at and had something like this and just nobody knew it. Yeah. Yeah. A lot. I have a feeling. Yeah. A lot. And I can think of a couple of the weird kids were absolutely autistic back in, in my childhood as well. I thought that was really interesting, but I don't know. It is interesting, Gavin.

9:09It doesn't explain why you have zero principles. I don't think it is interesting. Well, and it, you'd have more compassion for it. I don't think he presented it in the best way the other day to alert everybody as people are starting to become aware of Gavin Newsom across the country. And as a presidential candidate and all that sort of stuff to say, I'm as dumb as you. I can't read. I don't know that that was the best way to present this learning disability thing that he figured out. We're all human. We all fall short sometimes. That's good point, Kathy. I think Democratic donors would do well to remember Maya Angelou's famous proclamation that when somebody tries to tell you what kind of person they are, believe them, Gavin cannot hit Major League hitching. He is a one party state, anointed star. He is not a Major Leagueer and he's proved it a couple of times lately, but they'll keep in front of him up the flag bowl because he's good luck and well reasonably well spoken, although as you heard in those clips, not great.

10:11Well, I feel like Gavin or Mark Halperin bailed Gavin out of the thing that happened a week or so ago by letting him explain all this in a way that he should have done himself. I mean, as a good politician, he should have taken this very easy to be sympathetic about story and turned it into something that worked for him as opposed to something incredibly mockable. Yeah, I would agree. And even his explanation to Halperin, he needed help from Halperin to explain himself. It's just he's not a Major Leagueer. Speaking of Gavin Newsom, if you don't mind, we do have a delightful montage of Gavin Newsom talking about solving the quote unquote homelessness problem in California, which is mostly a junkie problem for the last 22 years. Michael, let's hear what we call a 10 year plan to end a chronic homelessness in San Francisco.

11:11You're going to fall homelessness. What are you going to do? It's a new mayor. And I say, well, what are you going to do? We're starting a housing first mile, direct access to housing, shelter, soft sleep, housing with rap around and support services, solve homelessness, homelessness absolutely can be solved laid out a detailed homeless strategy. There's been no intentionality on homelessness in the state for decades. It's not been a focus. I don't think we can solve homelessness. I know we can solve homelessness. We will reduce street homelessness quickly and humanely to emergency action. The highest investment the state's ever made is $1 billion on homelessness. We are poised to pass a budget in the next few hours that will provide $12 billion. It can literally quantify 58,000 people that we got off the streets last year. This state has not made progress in the last two decades as it relates to homelessness. Why? Meaning failure. We're not interested in failing more efficiently when it comes to the issue of homelessness and the crisis on the street. I feel like that music was mocking in tone.

12:13I didn't notice. I love the juxtaposition of, we have made enormous progress, 52,000 people. Then the next clip was probably six months later. The state has made no progress in dealing with homelessness. Oh my God. It's so funny. When was it? A tragic comic. It was a year or two ago that we Californians got hit with the fact that somewhere between a third and a half of all the homeless people in the entire United States are in California because people figured out not only is the weather good, but they'll let you be drunk or high your whole life. They'll provide you housing and food and nobody's going to arrest you for standing on the corner high and building a tent. It's awesome. I thought you were going to say the revelation that was a similar time frame that not only could they not tell us how effective the various programs had been, there wasn't even a mechanism for figuring it out. There was no even effort toward accountability, which should have been a much bigger scandal.

13:20To say it for the one millionth time, I honestly wish I could talk to Gavin about this. Why don't you look at it as a drug problem? It's a drug problem. It's not a housing problem. It's a drug problem. You got a whole bunch of people who ruin their lives with drugs and no longer can participate in the economy and they end up on the street and it's pretty obvious to them from looking around that we have a support structure for living on the street where you can get food and shelter and continue your life and medical care and all that sort of stuff. And make sure you don't have enough negative consequences to stop you before you ruin your brain. Like absolutely ensuring these people will ruin their brains. Well, it's funny. I just popped into my head like I've had this conversation with other people have kids like I do. You're teenagers. None of us are worried about our kids like not being able to support themselves so ending up homeless because they're broke. All of us are worried about our kids starting to do drugs and ruining their lives and could

14:23end up on the street. I mean, that answers the question right there. Who is worried that their kid is going to end up homeless on the street economically? Just plat out. You can't find a job or find some roommates or whatever. Very, very few. But drugs absolutely could take you off the rails. Right. I'm honestly asking this question. The willful misdiagnosis of what the real issue is. You got the one we just laid out and then you've got a kid who is, excuse me, autistic or a victim of trauma or has some other psychological problems, mental illness problems in detail. You know it. You're trapped in the wrong body. You're actually a little boy. You're not a girl. You're a boy. You should take these hormones instead of dealing with the actual root problem. And that's these are the compassionate people of the left. I would like to spend two minutes in their heads just to figure out how the hell they work. I don't get that. You've got an unhappy child.

15:25Instead of working hard to understand why they're so unhappy, you go with this wildly ideological new philosophy. In fact, you brand anybody who has a serious talk with the child about what's actually at the root of their problems. You brand those people as deprogram or what's with the word with the, you know, de-gayifiers or what have you. God, it's sick. If you want to help people, you have to understand what's afflicting them. Can we agree on that? And if we can't, God help us. We have some breaking news we might have to discuss later. I think this is the first time ever. A father whose kid was one of those school shooters has just been convicted of second-degree murder and involuntary manslaughter as a parent because their kid went and did that. We'll have to look into the details of that story. It's pretty interesting. Among other things we can get to, stay here.

A metal detectorist in Wales recently found two lead ingots that are believed to date back to the Roman era while the detectorist doesn't date at all. So I misreported a story earlier, I misunderstood it. I thought that the breaking news that we killed them when they were voting for a new supreme leader was telling what was going on over the weekend when the 40 people got together.

19:29That's today. So over the weekend, you killed the supreme leader and the 40 people underneath them. Today, 88 members, whoever's left of the government in Iran, 88 members got together in a building in calm QOM, I don't know how you pronounce that down. Anyway, they were voting for a new supreme leader because the old one got blowed up and they all got blowed up. Every single one of them looking at that building, I mean, that building is rubble. So I would assume every single one of them is dead. Boy, you think you hate hearing there's a meeting this afternoon. I'm the Iranian government, I'm thinking I'm not effing going. Well, and you're so far down the line now because you weren't the first 40 and you weren't the next almost 90. So now you're down to like the, I don't know, you're the second assistant minister of parks. You're the dog catcher in a medium-sized town. We need you to come vote for the supreme leader. We're running out of guys. So we're having a meeting today at four. I got a dentist. What would zoom be okay? Can I show up?

20:29I assume. Yeah. Why aren't they using zoom? Why aren't they using zoom? No freaking kidding. Or a Google needs brought to you by Google. She's 88 members met to vote for the supreme leader and they all got obliterated. But obviously, even with all the chaos going on, Israel or our CIA still has the tentacles to know exactly when, where and then, and, and, and, and blow them up. How is that possible? Everybody's question is, you know, how does this end? How does it unfold? What's next? And I'm thinking about when you eliminate that many layers of the hierarchy. What does that change the equation? Because if you are like the recently elected mayor of a medium-sized town and all of a sudden, you're among the most elite leaders of regime that you've always been a little ambivalent

21:30about anyway, you might be thinking, hey, Uncle Sam, give me a jingle. Let's work something out. I don't want to get blowed up. Right. I mean, you're, how many hard-line leaders are left? What's the state of the IRGC, the Revolutionary Guard Corps? I, I, I don't know these things. I'm not sure anybody does, well, the CIA and Israel probably know. Well, the top guy is so interesting, the Revolutionary Guard is dead and then, and then his replacement is dead. We know that. But, wow, that's something. Everybody got together to vote for a new supreme leader that they're probably going to very excitedly announce today, some old guy with a beard, I'm guessing, but they're all dead. Damn. We are monitoring events. There's a joke about that, a meme on the internet about how men do that. I want to talk about that before too long, Stan. Okay. Arms strong and getty.

Everything good? No problem. Thank you for helping us. What was that? That was an American pilot. One of the American pilots had ejected from those planes that got shot down by the Kuwaitis. Three of our jets got shot down. All of the crew got out and safely parachuted to the ground, but there's one, a Kuwaiti local making sure the F-15 pilot was okay, which they were and said, thank you for helping us. Now, as the belligerent Americans destroy the Middle East, the locals are greeting them.

25:43Did you see the other video so compelling? Another one of our guys who parachuted down some of the locals surrounded them and were menacing them like they were going to beat them down with the lumber. And finally, the guy communicated, American, I'm an American, and they're like, oh, oh, okay. All right. They put down their sticks and... No kidding. Yeah. Cool. And I just saw the Iranian women's soccer team competing in some soccer tournament or something like that didn't sing what they remained silent during the National Anthem when they normally sing. And as a show, you could read their faces. Right. And I really think they should tune into MSNBC so they should know they should be unhappy about this. They should be in favor of the Ayatollah and unhappy that the United States is doing this. Oh, yeah. Well, at some point, maybe next hour, we can get into the slew of big-foot media organizations that you'll energize the Ayatollah's fuzzy, bearded cleric who had a ready smile and love

26:44poetry, you know, just unfriggin' believable. But speaking of military matters, this is so interesting, and he's a question that will continue to be devil in the United States, I think, for some time. Who ultimately controls how cutting-edge AI tools are deployed in conflict in the military? And the society, as a whole, too, obviously, is it the user or the maker? And that question has been under the spotlight, in particular, because of the conflict between Derio Amode and Pete Hegseth, the founder, the CEO of Anthropics, slash Claude, and the Secretary of War. And I like this. This is buried in the middle of this article, but I love this description. Amode and Hegseth approached the question differently. A bespectacled researcher who often twirls his curly hair, Amode authors lengthy documents philosophizing about the importance of AI safety and is known for his deliberate approach

27:45to problem-solving. He has been a vegetarian since childhood. Hegseth is a former Fox News host with several tattoos tied to his Christian faith and military service, videos of Hegseth lifting weights frequently circulate on social media, and he played a role in President Trump's decision to rename the Defense Department to the Department of War. In other words, as the headline in the journal puts it, a fight about vibes drove the Pentagon's breakup with Anthropic, you've got two guys who are so different from each other. They're having a tough time coming to any sort of agreement. Anthropics specifically doesn't want their AI used for lethal autonomous weapons known as laws, L.A.Ws, which we don't currently have, or at least we don't think, I mean, they have an announce that we have, maybe we have them and they're keeping it a secret or whatever. Currently, we don't have minutes illegal, but Anthropic is so concerned that we would use the Pentagon, would use the AI technology to have weapons systems that once activated

28:48can select and engage targets without further intervention by an operator. How horrifying is that? You turn the thing on and send it out, and it makes it all its decisions from that point on and kills people. Yeah, yeah, anyway, it's absolutely a troubling prospect, especially I've got to actually kind of funny slash troubling article about this guy who tried to do a programming change in an AI system, and the AI system researched, wrote, published, and promoted a slam piece on this guy. It just took the ball and ran with it, assassinated the guy's character to try to not let him change the programming. This is entirely on its own. What? What? I heard this one. Those stories are amazing, holy cow, that's troubling. And so anyway, currently there's no public evidence that the Department of Defense has those kind of weapons, but you know, Anthropic as a company wants to make sure that their

29:51AI isn't used for any of that stuff. Also, they don't want Anthropic used for any surveillance of US citizens, which is illegal already. But it could be done with AI and kinds of ways that are legal, as was explained by the dispatch today. And I found this very troubling. I'm sorry. Before we get to the surveillance thing, to the military use deal, and I completely understand Pete Hegg's position on this. Anthropics is essentially asking for a case by the right to offer a case by case thumbs up or thumbs down. Hey, we're going to use your AI to do this now. Can't let you do that. Can you imagine if Northrop Drummond or I can remember these giant companies names, but if the maker of the F-18 said, no, don't bomb that village. I know there's some ISIS guys there can't have you using our plane like that. I mean, the AI systems are now a tool of war.

30:52Do they get a V-toper? No, that's unworkable. That's the way I see it. Well, I appreciate their caution. It's unworkable. But the government doesn't itself have this technology. So we're going to pass on the best technology on planet Earth and have these other companies. I mean, it exists. So, you know, using your example again, there's a company out there that's built a better fighter plane than any fighter plane on planet Earth. But they're not ending. Let it go and let the Pentagon use it however they want. So they just won't have it and will have lesser fighter planes. That doesn't make any sense. Yeah. So I don't know how this gets worked out. And there was on Friday before the war started with the help of ontropic, by the way. They used anthropic for a lot of the targeting in a complicated figure out what to hit and how and arrange the planes and all that sort of stuff. They used anthropic because intelligence processing as well. If you're following on Friday, there was a big dust up Trump said and Hexeth announced

31:55no more government work within tropic. Their persona non-grata to us were cut in ties with the entropic, then used them 24 hours later to kill the Ayatollah. But also there was talk of Trump made some noises about seizing entropic, taking the technology from them, which I have to call them left wing nut jobs have to assume that can't happen legally. Yes, it says some law I'm unfamiliar with. They cited. Remember the name of it. But it's the to label somebody as a supply chain risk is a serious thing for a military supplier. And that's what the Trump administration is looking at doing it already has. I'm not sure how law works, but I was troubled by this. So entropic is really worried about its technology being used to surveil Americans. U.S. law doesn't allow the government to surveil us, but as this expert on the Fourth Amendment pointed out, a lot of what you would do colloquially what you would colloquially

32:59kind of in common terms think of as a search is not a search under the Fourth Amendment when it comes to AI user data such as search history and algorithm preferences collected and held by private companies is not categorically protected by the Fourth Amendment. And either is all kinds of footage of cameras all over everywhere right necessarily fall under the Fourth Amendment and all kinds of other different things that AI could gather in a way that human beings couldn't just like super fast and put it all together. Right, we're going to have to work that out as a country as the technology continually changes. Good luck. Yeah. Where do you have an expectation of privacy these days in my own home, certainly. Every time I also clicked a forum and said, I agree when Google told you, by the way, your search is RRs. Your search history. Every time I get into my cyber truck, there's a little thing on there. It says four events happened while you're gone because it's recording on cameras all the way around and I watch the events just for fun sometimes and like somebody pulled

34:02up next to me and you know, opened the door and got their baby out of the car and stuff like that and walked behind me and scratched their ass and all these different things and I see it on the camera. But all of these videos of these people that they don't know they're being videoed, well, when every car has what the cyber truck has, which all of them will soon enough, every car will have that. Will be recorded constantly. Every car you walk down the street is recording you, car by car by car, so your entire walk around your neighborhood would be recorded if you wanted to put all that together and AI probably could. And that's something you combine the ring cams with the car cameras. You will be on video constantly. I wish we could reanimate Huxley and Orwell and have them update their their famous books Brave New World in 1984, although 1984 is pretty close to the technology we're talking about. But yeah, how does how does the world look because I know a surveilled society is an obedient

35:02society. People feel the need to conform and obey and keep their mouths shut, lest they be suspected of blah, blah, blah, blah, and that just changes the nature of your society. Well, there's that and if you end up with a bad actor in charge of the government and decides to use it for ill, if if if mankind ever falls under the sway of a totalitarian government that has the surveillance technology that exists now will never break free. Correct. It'll be the classic Orwell, a bootstamping on your face forever because there'll be no getting out of it. Control your soul's desire for freedom. That's the only answer. Thank you, sweetheart. You know, not every slope is slippery, but this feels like I don't know a sheet of glass covered in WD 40, some sort of sexual loob and some whale snot. I mean, the slipperyest slope that has ever existed. Now my son said to me and I had to discipline him harshly said, said, I'm not doing anything

36:06wrong. So I don't care, which is the attitude of a lot of people always on this stuff. But you think you're not doing anything wrong, wait till somebody else is in charge. Maybe they'll think what you're doing is wrong. How you show me the man I will bring you to the crime. How you vote, how you pay taxes, how you, whatever, you don't pick a topic. Anyway, that's really interesting. So I don't know what I think about the most powerful tools on earth, not being in the hand, the government doesn't have it or won't have it because they don't want to play along China, because China is going to have AI in their military, they already do. I'm sure it's probably the only practically the only thing they're going to do with AI is militarize it. And we won't, right? The one thing I can't answer is whether anthropics leadership in some of the systems we're talking about is so clearly superior that to go with somebody else would be a big step

37:12back. Well, I don't know that. This story got obliterated Friday because the war started over the weekend. But Sam Altman at Open AI said, whoa, what? He raises hands and said, whoa, what? Because the government had a contract with anthropic. And when they canceled it and said, that's it. No more. Altman at Open AI said, hey, we're happy to fill in. So I'm not sure he cares if the Pentagon used it to surveil people or send out robots across the landscape with machine guns or whatever that. Well, probably robot wolves. One more note just because it's interesting. And then I can't wait. Next segment. A guy from the Middle East challenging a bunch of left wing, stupid anti-Trump demonstrators, anti-Iran war demonstrators. Anyway, Claude, not only played a significant role in setting up the attack on Iran, it also played a role in the military action that captured an old man, Maduro, has been used for war gaming and mission planning.

38:13Anthropic for years has been the most vocal AI company advocating for guardrails. The stance at times is frustrated administration officials, blah, blah, blah. Earlier this year, anthropic effectively banned the use of the word pathogen in model prompts as part of its safeguards against AI creating a bio weapon on its unclassified systems used by many agencies, blah, blah. The band made it difficult for employees at the Centers for Disease Control and prevention to use the AI tool. It took weeks to get workers permission to circumvent those bands. Yeah, it's impossible to do that. It reminds me of the thing years ago we had about when Facebook was trying to deal with the nipple. Oh, one of the funniest episodes in the history of the computer. Band the nipple, because originally it was to not have nudity and then, well, Casano breastfeeding and then you love breastfeeding, but then what if it's an adult breastfeeding on a woman? Is that so? What about a man breastfeeding another man, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, yeah. I can't remember. Oh, God.

Why am I not in Bath County, Kentucky today to celebrate the meat shower with everybody else? It's an annual festival. We'll talk about that coming up. Sounds like something that was outlawed even in San Francisco. We now bring you to Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, where a bunch of woke protesters are yelling about the attack on Iran, and they are confronted by a fellow who's actually from the Middle East. Why don't you leave America? You hate this imperialist country. Why don't you leave? Bushmen. When Iranian women were raped and murdered by their government, none of you said you're fake activists. Why don't you speak about the 50,000 we're on in to forgive? You f***ing f***ed have the smell of you because none of you are showered. That is some trolling.

43:24F***ed terrorist effing cause playing children. Well said sir, well said. What is the Kentucky meat shower? So, happened 150 years ago today to have an annual festival there in the county where it occurred. And I asked my wife for the Kentucky meat shower and she didn't speak to me for a week. You date the Kentucky meat shower. You don't marry the Kentucky meat shower. That's horrible. That's terrible. Katie's us staying out of it, she's gonna stay out of it. So I'm from rural America. So you come up with any reason for your festival. Like I lived near a Cocker city, Kansas, where they have the world's largest ball of twine. And every year you have a big giant party with bands and you drink beer and they add some more twine to them, but we'll ball to make it bigger. I mean, you just come up with these things. In a bath county, Kentucky, they have the Kentucky meat shower festival.

44:26It's 150th anniversary today. When on this day, March 3rd, 1876, chunks of meat began falling from the sky for several minutes. 11 a.m. covering a 100 by 50 yard area in chunks and chunks and chunks of meat was a side. I don't know what's happening exactly, but something has gone terribly wrong. This poor woman was sitting there, not good, wash and clothes or something like that. When chunks of meat, some of some of them as large as their hand began tumbling from the sky. People want to beef. The story went national fast as people tried to figure out why chunks of meat fell from the sky in that little part of Kentucky. Scientists got involved, examined samples. Seven samples were examined by scientists who confirmed that several were lung tissue, some were muscular tissue, two were cartilage. Several people actually tasted it and said it tasted like mutton or venison.

45:27This is the sort of thing you did in the 1870s, apparently, where if a chunk of meat fell out of the sky, you'd say, oh, let me taste that. I wonder what that is. I'm way to figure it out, Clim. Anyway, apparently, vultures vomit occasionally. And for whatever reason, a big flock of vultures, vomit it up all the dead food that they had eaten up at the same time, 200 pounds of unidentified meat fell in one little spot. And that's the Kentucky meat shower. And that's why they have a festival every week. Please send the bill for detailing your car after you vomit in it to Jack Armstrong. You'll be happy to pay that bill. Ha, ha, we got more on the way. Armstrong and Getty. Sink into affordable luxury.
