Whole Foods, aka "Whole Paycheck", CEO John Mackey, wrote in his Op/Ed piece in the Wall Street Journal recently, “A careful reading of both the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution will not reveal any intrinsic right to health care, food or shelter.” Apparently, he's against health care reform! I already figured he was against food and shelter (he charges so much for food that you can't afford shelter). In retaliation to Mackey's comments, a group of left wing nutjobs who somehow read the above quote over and over without reading another word of the WSJ article, banded together and decided to take a stand by making a youtube video!
Watch below as these idiots make a mockery of the right to protest:
Before blindly taking their word for it, loading up a van full of jackasses and Molotov cocktails, riding over to the nearest Whole Foods and torching it to the ground, I decided to read the article for myself. To my surprise, Mackey makes a very compelling argument for preventative self-care vs. health care, speaks of a different kind of health care reform (one that doesn't force us deeper into debt) and offers a refreshing, educated opinion on the free health care systems in Canada and the UK.
I highly recommend you read Mackey's article in it's entirety. To do so, click here.
I know this isn't the typical Wolf Pack fare, but I guess I saw that bullshit video posted on one too many blogs today and well, sometimes you've got to call a spade a spade. Not only is that a poor excuse for a protest, it's also completely off base and uncalled for. I thought selective reading was for politicians, not Berkeley students. Go sit in a tree.
A priest and a rabbi are walking down the street when they see a young boy. The priest says to the rabbi, "Hey, you want to fuck that little boy?" to which the rabbi replies, "Fuck him out of what?"

WARNING: This video is incredibly stupid, borderline disgusting at times, probably not suitable for work, and if you don't share my sick sense of humor (laughed my head off) and soft spot for all things ghetto, you might not enjoy it. But seriously, how could you not be a Ray Rich fan?
The Bay Bridge in San Francisco, which connects the city and Oakland, is scheduled for demolition as soon as its more earthquake-friendly replacement is completed. But rather than scrap the old one, two San Francisco architects have a proposal along the lines of the High Line in New York: turn it into an urban park and apartments. Check out more photos and some analysis over at BLDGBLOG.
Here's a shot of what the bay bridge looks like currently, while under construction. The ugly stuff on the right is what the architects would like to build on, rather than see it demolished once the new bridge is complete.
A while back, we decided to get the hell out of dodge. Leaving our birthplace of San Francisco, our friends, family and loved ones behind - we moved to New York City. We are now a Wolf Pack of two.
This one came in at #17... Kanye listens in agony for 5 minutes as DJ Khaled pantomimes his new track to him. One of my favorites:
