Four young chiquitas in Omaha
































I'm heading to Omaha with Chris for another of her work functions.

The good news is I'll get to see some friends and watch a baseball game and the scientific community is united in that fact.

Which brings me to the Wise Ass (Oops) Oracle of Omaha.

At a $4,600 a seat Clinton fundraiser, Warren Buffett (Wasted Away in Hellaryville) criticized the US tax system for allowing him to pay a lower rate than his secretary and his cleaner.

Buffett, who is worth an estimated $52 billion and made $46 million last year, said...

"...If you’re in the luckiest 1 per cent of humanity, you owe it to the rest of humanity to think about the other 99 per cent.”

Think about this, there's no law that prohibits Buffett from paying more in taxes.

Oh the humanity!
