Shock The Monkey

This sounds like fun. Maybe I should try it:

"SHENYANG, China: A Chinese safari park decided to celebrate the New Year and the start of the Year of the Monkey by dying its primates bright red and yellow. But painting the monkeys was no easy matter job as they refused to cooperate. 'We had to anaesthetize them first', a park spokesman said. 'They seemed to be surprised at their new strange coats when they woke up. But after a while, they indulged themselves in pleasure.'"

Let's see. Put them to sleep and dip them in dye. They wake up, do a doubletake then pleasure themselves. Must have been some darn purdy colors.

New Year

I guess it's time for the obligitory new year's post.
New Year's. BFD.
To most, it's:

• A- a time to party it up, stay up late, say "Happy New Year", go to bed, sleep late, then wake up with a headache.
• B- a time to stay up late watching something overrated and exuberant on teevee, say "Happy New Year", go to bed and sleep late.
• C- a time to void several checks because you've written the WRONG DAMN DATE. AGAIN!!!

Others will be catering to all those people, earning a paycheck and thinking about how they wish they were .... see A or B.

Remember how good you have it and have had it. Remember those who don't have it as good as you. Appreciate who and what you are.

PSA: Stay off the streets if you can people, it's amateur night. If you do go out and about, drive carefully and don't be an idiot.

"Ever eat a pine tree? Many parts are edible."
Michael Moore-on is sitting under what's left of his Christmas tree, a sprig stuck to the corner of his mouth, pine needles scattered on the floor. The trunk and a few branches may as well be the upright carcass of a thoroughly magpie-pecked roadkill antelope.

Some wonderful quotes, from IMAO:
On air travel:

"The flight data recorders in airplanes are called "black boxes" despite being orange. Similarly, the ones in the movie of the same name were predominantly pink."

"The average commercial airliner weigh 199 tons, as does the average Michael Moore."

"The average commercial airliner is 231 feel long. If all the commercial airliners in the world were lined up end-to-end, you would be at O'Hare."

On love:

"Love is like an unquenchable thirst, though it can be temporarily sated with fluids other than water."

"Despite what you may have been taught in school, love is more than just a few cigars and a stained blue dress"

Oh yes there is more. Much, much more.

Pit Bulldog Joins Holiday Family Brawl

Christina Lyman told authorities she was trying to break up a Christmas evening altercation between her brother and sister, Nicholas Lyman, 19, and Yvonne Lyman, 22, both of Indianapolis.

That's when the family owned pit bull entered the fray and "turned on all three parties,"

Hey, he justed wanted to get in on the celebrations.

But Did She Bring Flowers?

Ooohhh Babe... Oh Babe! OH! OH! AAAHHHH!!!!!.....:

"LONDON: British television watchdogs ruled that a pig which was sexually pleasured on camera by a minor celebrity did not feel degraded by the experience. Dozens of viewers had complained about an episode of a reality television show in which the audience were treated to the sight of Rebecca Loos, the self-proclaimed ex-lover of England football captain David Beckham, stimulating the boar for 10 minutes to produce a flask of semen. An animal charity condemned the scenes as 'morbid and sordid' but the broadcasting standards body said the procedure was perfectly normal on a farm. 'We don't believe that the scene was degrading or harmful to the boar,' they ruled."

She cain't take nary a step without that damn pig a' follerin' her 'round now.

"PALEMBANG, Indonesia: A landmark bridge in Sumatra is in danger of collapse because too many men are urinating on one of its steel pillars. Surveyors have found that the Ampera bridge in Palembang has begun to lean at an angle and rocks slightly when traffic is heavy. Council spokesman Azmi Lakonisaid: 'We are concerned that one of its main support piers has been weakened by urine, as it is a popular spot for locals to relieve themselves.' He added that the acidic fluid's corrosive forces could lead to the eventual collapse of the bridge."

Job Discrimination Hits Argentina

Unfair!:

"CORDOBA, Argentina: Macho Argentine types received a slap in the face when a hair salon put an advert in a local newspaper for a stylist -- but said only gay men need apply. 'I have nothing against heterosexuals, but women feel more comfortable if the person taking care of them is gay,' the salon owner said. 'I have had a lot of complaints in the past. Most male hair stylists are trying to pick up the women.'"

Michael Moore-on at it again

Drug Firms Issue Memos on Michael Moore:

"Moore, normally seen sporting a beard and a ball cap, has now set his sights on the health care industry, including insurance companies, HMOs, the Food and Drug Administration (news - web sites) and drug companies."

An expose, or documentary of some sort probably needs to be done on the healthcare industry; starting with HMOs, insurance companies, pharmaceutical companies, hospitals, doctors, ambulance chasing personal injury lawyers and so on. A rational, full blown discovery.
But this weasley, lying, self-serving, greedy, bullshitting sack of whale blubber isn't the one to do it. He is incapable of relaying the whole truth. Being impartial is not part of his bogus game. The way I see it he has a couple of agendas. One being to make him money, and the other to make him more famous. Until he gets over that shit and really wants to expose the truth, he can never make anything resembling a "documentary".

is there anything you can do for him?"
"Well," says the vet, "let's have a look at him." So he picks the dog up

Finally, he says, "I'm going to have to put him down."
"What? Because he's cross-eyed?"
"No, because he's really heavy."

Happy Holidays!

Okay, it's Christmas eve. (OH NO! I used the "C" word). Anyway, it's Christmas eve, and it's time to pause to remember and appreciate everyone worth remembering, and wish the best for the coming year to all I associate with.
Also, it's time to think of those who due to conditions beyond their control, can't be where they would rather be right now, and wish them all the best.
With that, far be it for me to be non-PC in this politically correct modern day society, so here is a generic toast, slightly altered from a wish here:

Best wishes for an environmentally conscious, socially responsible, low stress, non-addictive, gender neutral, winter solstice holiday, practiced within the most joyous traditions of the religious or non-religious celebration of your choice, but with respect for the religious or non-religious persuasion of others who choose to practice their own religion as well as those who choose not to practice a religion at all;

Additionally, a fiscally successful, personally fulfilling, and medically uncomplicated recognition of the generally accepted calendar year 2004, but not without due respect for the calendars of choice of other cultures whose contributions have helped make our society great, without regard to the race, creed, color, religious, or sexual preferences of the wishes.

(Disclaimer: This greeting is subject to clarification or withdrawal. It implies no promise by the wisher to actually implement any of the wishes for her/himself or others and no responsibility for any unintended emotional stress these greetings may bring to those not caught up in the holiday spirit.)

I am, and will continue to be, a smart-ass.

This Is Cool!

A Warrior's Poem

From: Barking Moonbat Early Warning System

You media pansies may squeal and may squirm,
But a fighting man knows that the way to confirm
That some jihadist bastard is truly dead,
Is a brain-tappin’ round fired into his head.

To hell with some wienie with his journalist degree
Safe away from the combat, tryin’ to tell me
I should check him for breathing, examine his eyes.
Nope, I’m punchin’ his ticket to Muj paradise.

To hell with you wimps from your Ivy League schools,
Sittin’ far from the war tellin’ me about rules.
And preaching to me your wrong-headed contention
That I should observe the Geneva Convention,

Which doesn’t apply to a terrorist scum
so evil and cruel their own people run from,
Cold-blooded killers who love to behead,
Shove that mother’ Geneva, I’m leaving em dead.

You slick talkingheads may preach, preen and prattle,
But you’re damn well not here in the thick of the battle.
It’s chaotic, confusing, It all comes at you fast,
So it’s Muj checking out, because I’m going to last.

Yeah, I’ll last through this fight and send his ass away
To his fat ugly virgins while I’m still in play.
If you journalist wienies think that’s cold, cruel and crass,
Then pucker up sweeties. Kiss a fighting man’s ass.

Party animal monks and now a priest?:

"SLUNJ, Croatia: A Roman Catholic priest beat up a member of his parish, threatened others with a rifle and crashed his car in a night of drunken rage after a quarrel in a restaurant. Josip Stefancic punched a guest in the face, took a rifle and waved it other guests before fleeing in his car and crashing into a tree, refusing a breath test when police arrived at the scene. His bishop, Mile Bogovic, was surprisingly understanding. 'Stefancic did not act alone. The wine was with him,' he said."

And now, the rest of the story (tm):
"The parents of the priests' 10 year old lover informed the media that their son was unavailbale for contact."

Christians protest actions that play down Christmas' religious nature:

"Christians and traditionalists across the nation, fed up with what they view as the de-emphasizing of Christmas as a religious holiday, are filing lawsuits, promoting boycotts and launching campaigns aimed at restoring references to Christ in seasonal celebrations."

Turnabout is fair play, right? I'm sick of all this PC bullshit and am glad Christians are getting that way too. The reason the holiday was invented was to celebrate the birth of Christ. It wasn't invented as a way to celebrate Santa Claus.
Since the population has been predominantly Christian for the last few hundred years, Christians have been the ones celebrating it. If you're not Christian, you don't have to recognize Christ. That's your option. Just don't try to force another Christian to do the same.
There's nothing wrong with celebrating other religious events around the same time. A 'Holiday' party is great idea. Include everyone. In fact, don't make it a religious event. Make it a company event or a communal event. Make it a special event for everyone at that time of year. It's the end of the year, a good time to reflect on accomplishments of the prior year and recognize people for doing a job well done, and remember family, friends or even not so familiar associates in your lives you don't see on a regular basis.
Just don't try to hide or eliminate the actual reason the holiday was here in the first place, and don't try to force me to do the same.

Mom Sues Wal-Mart Over Daughter's Suicide:

"Wal-Mart just seven miles away should have never sold her the shotgun she used to kill herself"

FOR FUCK'S SAKE!!! People, people, people.
It wasn't Wallymart's fault, it wasn't the shotgun's fault, it wasn't the AMA's fault, it wasn't President Bush's fault.
You go shoot yourself, it's YOUR OWN damn fault. YOU pulled the trigger.
You spill hot coffee on your lap, it's YOUR OWN damn fault. You ordered the coffee, right? Did you want it fresh out of the refridgerator? Idiot.
You eat yourself so fat you can't wipe your own ass any more, it's YOUR OWN fault. You walked (or rolled) up to the counter and ordered all those cheeseburgers with fries and diet coke, and then put them down your own throat. The cashier behind the counter didn't hold you down and stuff them in your mouth.
You run over you own child in the driveway, it's not the car manufacturer's fault. Again, it's YOUR OWN damn fault. You didn't look first. You didn't check where your kids were.
When are we going to get past this "It was everyone else's fault but my own" bullshit?

Now granted. This person had a mental illness. She was diagnosed "bipolar and schizophrenic". She shouldn't have a gun. But was it Wally's responsibility to ask her if she was mentally stable enough to own one? No. If she was that crazy to the extreme of being suicidal, she should have been somewhere being taken care of rather than shopping for a gun. She maybe should have been home being taken care of by mom (Wait! Mom? It wasn't her fault!), or a halfway house, hospital, care center, whatever. If she was a danger to herself or others, she should have had better supervision.
Medical records are confidential. They are not public record. And they shouldn't be. Should the doctor have reported her condition to Big Brother so when Wally's did her background check it would have shown up? HELL NO! That shouldn't be public knowledge. Again, she should have had better supervision.

I know - let's just take away all guns. Make them all illegal to own. That way, there would be no guns to have to worry about. Then we can take away any other deadly weapon. Knives, axes, hammers, cars, baseball bats, lead pipes, scissors, letter openers, finger nail files, box cutters, ropes, plastic bags, .....

Public Service Announcement

Some helpfull emerency or first aid tips:

1. If you are choking on an ice cube, don't panic
simply pour a cup of boiling water down your throat
and presto! The blockage will be almost instantly
removed.

2. Clumsy? Avoid cutting yourself while slicing
vegetables by getting someone else to hold them while you chop away.

3. Avoid arguments with the Mrs. about lifting the
toilet seat by simply using the sink.

4. For high blood pressure sufferers: just cut
yourself and bleed for a few minutes, thus reducing
the pressure in your veins.

5. A mouse trap, placed on top of your alarm clock,
will prevent you from rolling over and going back to
sleep after you hit the snooze button.

6. If you have a bad cough, take a large dose of
laxatives, then you will be afraid to cough.

7. Have a bad toothache? Smash your thumb with a
hammer and you will forget about the toothache.

And lastly, keep in mind you only need two tools: WD-40 and Duct Tape. If it doesn't move and should, use the WD-40.
If it shouldn't move and does, use the duct tape.

Good gawd-amighty. All you have to do is take a look at D.C., Massacheusettes, or maybe Chicago or New York. Or even better, England, Australia or Scottland, where these moronishly strict gun laws are already in place. How much has their violent crime diminished? How many lives have been saved from people not having the ability to protect themselves, their family or their property? Uhh, the number goes to the left of 0. Less and less people are being protected, while more and more are being robbed, hurt and killed. We're talking armed, violent crime here. Criminals WITH GUNS. Does anyone really think that because guns are not allowed that there won't be any guns? Great gawd in heaven. Get a fucking clue!!!
The sorry-ass government is even asking the citizens to not defend themselves when confronted by a bad guy. "Act submissive and let them assume complete control of the situation. That way, you are less likely to get hurt." Unless of course, he's already got his dick in his hand. It won't hurt as much if you lay down on the ground and just let him fuck you. It won't hurt as much if you let him walk out the door with your money, your belongings, your children, or maybe your life.
Well fuck that. If these wussies had any stones in the first place, they would never have given up their guns without emptying the magazine first. And I don't mean by dumping it out.
This is one good argument to not registering your guns. Let the world know you have a gun so when they want to take it, they know exactly where to go to get it.
I sincerely hope these residents of California realize the implications and don't just sheepishly follow thier elected leaders on this one. I hope they do a little research and maybe even listen to the facts a little before they hit the polls.

"By the way, is there a name for IMAO fans? I mean, Jimmy Buffet fans are 'Parrot Heads', Star Trek fans are 'Trekkies', and Michael Moore fans are 'Assholes'."

I couldn't agree more.

Now go ahead and check it out yourself.

Random

Ain't that somethin'.

 

Remember when the 'Whitehouse Christmas used to be on the major networks?  I guess it's lost its public appeal.  I never watched it anyway, but I know a few people who did like to see it.

I noticed that last night that it was on HGTV, and stupid shit reality shows and the like were on the big networks.  Amazing.

 

But then what is really amazing to me is that anyone even watches those lame-assed shows in the first place.

 

Rebooting

So we are all too familiar with the act of rebooting a computer. From the earliest days in the computing world, every time it 'locks up' or 'blue screens', or things just aren't working right, Ctrl+Alt+Del.
Whenever a user at my work has some sort of strange or unexplainable problem, I tell them to save everything they can, and reboot their computer.

Well, I also learned that my truck needs to be rebooted sometimes.
I have a 2003 Chevy Silverado, with separate temperature controls for the driver and the passenger. If you turn the passenger temp setting all the way to hot, get warm then try to turn it down to a cooler setting, it doesn't change. It stays hot hot hot. In order for it to be settable to a cooler temp, the truck must be rebooted.
I have to stop and shut the engine off, let it set for a few seconds then restart it. After that, the temperature settings will work properly.

Now, with the advent of all these cutesy, fancy christmas decorations, which are controlled by teeny little electronic controllers, we learn all the new things which also must be rebooted.
I have some christmas decorations which are little 3" globes. They have 3 L.E.D.'s in them (red, yellow, blue), which in a rotating fashion, are powered on and off, making the globes change color from blue to purple to red to orange and so on.
Well last night, they got stuck on green. They were no longer changing colors. So what did I do to fix it? You guessed it. Cycle the power. Reboot.
They are working fine again. For now.

Well, just one for now.

John & Marsha decided that the only way to pull off a Sunday afternoon quickie with their 8 year old son in the appartment was to send him out on the balcony and tell him to report on all the neighborhood activities.
He began his commentary as his parents put their plan into operation:

"There's a car being towed from the parking lot"he shouted.
A few moments passed.
" An ambulance just drove by."
A few moments passed.
" Looks like the Andersons have company" he called out.
" Matt's riding a new bike."
"The Coopers are having sex!!"
Startled , Mother and Dad shot up in bed!!!

Dad cautiously asked " How do you know they are having sex??"

"Jimmy Cooper is standing out on his balcony too."

Michael Moore-on is still fat

And ugly. And stupid.

"He was so unhappy over Bush's win, he didn't roll out of bed for three days,"

What a weenie. Pouting like a 2 year old kid. Give me a break.
Maybe he should crawl back in there with Brian Wilson, or maybe John and Yoko. Well, maybe just Yoko.

Welcome to Hell

You know, I'm really, really glad Christmas only comes once a year.
I know, "How cliche!". But here's my deal.
I hate malls. I don't really enjoy any sort of department store, especially when I'm not buying something for myself.
Now don't get me wrong, it's not that I'm selfish. I love to buy something that brings a smile to someone's face. It's just the shopping part I hate. I would much rather have a list of things I need to get. Or even if I make a run for a single item, I want to go in, get what I need/want, and get the hell out.
Wandering aimlessly for hours just to buy something on impulse that I think maybe someone may like, just doesn't do it for me.
Now back to the mall. I do the dispicable mall crawl once a year to find the goodies for the loved ones. I consider it a necessary evil. Something that has to be done, sort of like tax time, only worse. At least with the taxes you get to go to an individual or sit at your computer for a few hours while preparing to throw your money away, but the mall, you battle for a distant parking space, plow your way through crowds gawking at a truckload or two of worthless shit all trying to grab your eye, then toss your money into some greedy bastard's pot so they can pay for their beemer.
When I die, I sure hope I end up in heaven. Otherwise, I'm guessing satan has a mall with no exits set aside just for me.
Oh well. Maybe I won't have to go back until next year.

Update: ...and they'll be playing Muzak versions of country songs.

In the mean time,


If I ever travel to another country, I would proudly wear a shirt with an American flag on it. I would never be ashamed to display or relate the fact that I am an American citizen. If that country doesn't want me to visit and spend my American dollars there, then to hell with them. I don't need to go there and I don't want to go there. There are thousands of other places on this planet I can go and enjoy myself without having to concern myself with being welcomed.
You don't want to invite me to your house to play, then go fuck yourself. I have plenty of friends. Just don't expect me to think of you as one of them.

She says, "Why, officer?"
"Because your breast is hanging out." He says.
She looks down and says, "OH MY GOD, I left the baby on the bus again!"

There's this blonde out for a walk She comes to a river and sees another
blonde on the opposite bank.
"Yoo-hoo!" she shouts - "How can I get to the other side?"

The Amber Ale is awesome. Sure, I cracked one too soon. It needs another week or two in the bottle, but even still, it is yummy.
And on that note, never underestimate the power of Irish Moss.
Sure, it gets rid of the chill haze, but it also consolidates the 'sludge' (yeast, solids) left over from brewing, that like to lay in the bottom of the bottle and try to sneak out when you least expect it while pouring.
The Irish Moss kept the stuff there. I like it.

On the Peterson Trial

From HOG ON ICE

That being said, I’m not going to cry in my beer if the jury decides to give him the juice or the gas or the lethal tofu injection or the staggering dose of medical marijuana or whatever the hell it is they kill people with in California these days. Peterson is slime of the lowest order, so nobody is going to miss him.

THEY FIGHT AND DIE, BUT NOT FOR THEIR COUNTRY

Now we're at it again, this time in Iraq, a nation that would never have invaded us.

Ted Rall just needs to be dragged by the balls backward through the streets of Iraq until his eyelids are scraped open enough to see what the fuck is going on in the world.

The Taliban and Al Queda are doing their best to rid the world of "the infidels". (Ummm, that would include us, Ted). They are basically trying to rid the world of anyone who doesn't go along with their beliefs. (That would be any other christian, jew, buddhist, ... Ted). Most people when inflicted with a cancerous tumor, cut it out before it takes over. Unless like Hitler, it removes itself.

I don't know what crystal ball this moron was looking into, unless it was the crystal globe attached to the bottom of his overly tarred bong, but one way or the other, he's living in some sort of self induced fantasy.

What most tree hugging, granola eating, whale hugging, kumba-ya singing liberals fail to realize, is that we're not fighting the entire country of Iraq, or Afghanistan, we're fighting the rebels, the terrorists, the murderers and rapists who seem to think they're doing Allah's work. If this Allah is the type who supports death by whipping, revenge raping, chopping off people's heads, limbs and hands, then I for one will have no part of it.

These criminals need to be removed from the human race, and hopefully before too many more innocent lives have been ruined. I'm talking about innocent citizens at the hands of these shitbags, not just the selfless soldiers being killed.

What have you ever in your life sacrificed for the good of the people, Ted? Maybe given up a seat on the bus to a pregnant woman?
Doubtful.

Tex-Mex Christmas

This is hilarious. Shamelessly stolen from here:

(best read out loud with a Cheech and Chong accent)

‘Twas the night before Christmas and all through the casa,
Not a creature was stirring—Caramba! Que pasa?

Los ninos were tucked away in their camas,
Some in long underwear, some in pyjamas,

While hanging the stockings with mucho cuidado
In hopes that old Santa would feel obligado

To bring all children, both buenos and malos,
A nice batch of dulces and other regalos.

Outside in the yard there arose such a grito
That I jumped to my feet like a fightened cabrito.

I ran to the window and looked out afuera,
And who in the world do you think that it era?

Saint Nick in a sleigh and a big red sombrero
Came dashing along like a crazy bombero.

And pulling his sleigh instead of venados
Were eight little burros approaching volados.

I watched as they came and this quaint little hombre
Was shouting and whistling and calling by nombre:

“Ay Pancho, ay Pepe, ay Cuco, ay Beto,
Ay Chato, ay Chopo, Macuco, y Nieto!”

Then standing erect with his hands on his pecho
He flew to the top of our very own techo.

With his round little belly like a bowl of jalea,
He struggled to squeeze down our old chiminea,

Then huffing and puffing at last in our sala,
With soot smeared all over his red suit de gala,

He filled all the stockings with lovely regalos --
For none of the ninos had been very malos.

Then chuckling aloud, seeming very contento,
He turned like a flash and was gone like the viento.

And I heard him exclaim, and this is verdad,
Merry Christmas to all, and Feliz Navidad!

Dad's Shoes

A more somber side of the curmudgeon.
December 2nd is my dad's birthdate. He died in 1981, but my family and I can't help but remember this day as his birthday.
So with that, here is a poem I wrote in 1993 while remembering him one year.

Daddy's Shoes

An old pair of shoes
Left alone in the hall,
Right there on the floor
Sitting next to the wall.

"These were Daddy's shoes"
Ma said as we passed,
On the way to the room
Where Dad had slept last.

He left this world happy
And said on that day
"I've led a full life."
We still miss him today.

But we all had the chance
To have our lives filled,
With his knowledge and wisdom,
Our souls he helped build.

So we look back and smile
And know he loved us all.
I gaze at those worn shoes
Sitting there in the hall.

I think of the roads
On which he has passed
The giving without taking
Doing without being asked.

Someday I'll be as good a man
I'll have paid all my dues
But not 'till I've walked a mile or more
In my Daddy's shoes!

I don't mind if anyone wants to pass this along. All I ask is you include my name.

Brew Update

Tap-A-Draft Rocks!
I tapped a jug of the Wheat Stout over the weekend. The TAD system works quite well. Pour a glass, slide the tap back halfway to add a little head. Quite pleasant. No bottles to store, clean, cap, .....
The brew? It was also quite pleasant. Slight nutty/roasted flavor, not too hoppy, not too sweet. It just kind of slid down the throat.
Not quite as dark as Guiness and not as rich. Very good.

'Tis the season

The holiday season is officially here.  I know this because one of the local the radio stations, and also 3 channels on XM Radio have Christmas music playing on them as of Thanksgiving day. 

In light of this being said holiday season, I submit the following attempt at humor, which was penned by me one day roughly 25 years ago while bored in high school history class, oddly about this same time of year.  Some of it may sound familiar:

 

 

'Twas the night before Christmas

and all through the house,

the whole damn family

was drunk as a louse.

 

The stockings were hung

by the chimney with care,

with hopes that the 'Bud Man'

soon would be there.

 

I in my scivvies

and she in her drawers

were casually lying,

in drool on the floor

 

When out in the drive

there arose such a fuss

I got up with a bound

and started to cuss!

 

I shout "WHAT THE HELL!?"

at the top of my lungs

then up from the floor

almost everyone sprung.

 

A thud on the porch,

a pound on the door

a voice "OPEN UP!!"

"AND I'LL BRING IN SOME MORE!!"

 

When what to my bloodshot

eyes should appear,

ten, make it twenty

full cases of beer!

 

We let him on in

he sat down with a thud

then reached for the stack

and said "Hand me a Bud"

 

He said "Man it is cold,

and the roads are like shit,

after this year

I'm going to quit!"

 

We told him how everyone

liked having him so,

and we knew it was rough

driving in all of this snow.

 

But we'd miss him so badly

if he didn't come,

and they'd prob'ly replace him

with some useless bum.

 

A tear started to form

in his tired bloodshot eyes,

and he rose from his chair

(after five or six tries).

 

He said "Merry Christmas"

"I'll see you next year!"

Then he jumped in his truck

and he ground it in gear.

 

Then off through the night

in his Bud truck he went,

and I thought to myself

he didn't charge us a cent!

 

So next time you see

that big truck in the night,

wish him 'Merry Christmas',

and 'a wonderful night'!

Coal Mining

Scant Chance of Survival for 141 Chinese Miners:

"Official figures show 4,153 coal mine deaths in the first nine months of this year, down 630, or more than 13 percent, from the same period last year."

4,153 in nine months. What is with these morons? I can't believe they would even work in one of those mines. The operators need to be jailed.
I worked in a coal mine for four years. You know how many deaths we had? Zero. I never heard of a coal mine fatality the entire time I worked in the mines. At least, none in the ones I worked in, or even the rest of the state.

488 coal mine related fatalities from 1992-2004 in the United States. China has roughly 10 times as many deaths in less than a year, than we had over a ten year period.

One would have to be totally crazy to work in a Chinese mine.

Date night in India

IOL: A Step Beyond

Hyderabad, India - India, home to the world's second-largest HIV population, may have found a perfect cocktail for safe sex... a free condom with every bottle of alcohol sold at liquor shops.

Ya know, I'm just not sure what to say about this.
I guess I'll just stick to this thought: It may be good for people old enough to buy booze and who do, but there are still a lot of people not legal age, and a also lot of people who just don't buy it.

There are still a couple things missing here. Common sense and self control.
Yes, there is still a truckload of people lacking the education to know what can happen, but there is also another truckload, or maybe even a convoy of people infected, who know the risks and ignore them.

Back in the saddle again

Well, I'm back from the weekend away.  Sorry for the lack of posts, but all computer time was spent fixing rather than surfing or posting. 

 

I hope you all (the huge loyal fan base) had as nice of a weekend as I did.  It was good to visit with family and friends, go to the snow country and see the sights. 

 

Blog Lite

Well, I may not be posting much from now until next week.

I'll be going out of town visiting and may or may not get on a computer. 

We'll be doing the usual - drive, sleep, eat, chat, poker, rinse, repeat - but it should be a good weekend.

 

At this time I pause to wish y'all "Happy Holidays".

Be thankful, be safe, be ready to plop - plop fizz - fizz.

 

Michael Moore dreams of being a Thanksgiving turkey

Hmm. I've got such a nice tan. I could just gobble myself up.

I bottled the Amber Ale last evening while cooking supper and watching the ball game.
The Tap-A-Draft jugs made it such a sweet process. 3 jugs and 5 12-ounce bottles. I was done and cleaned up in roughly an hour. 50 bottles usually takes me about 2 hours start to finish.
The brew? A nice deep coppery color. Fairly hoppy fragrance so far, but I haven't tasted it yet.

From the 'Get Over It' department

Good gawd. Get the fuck on with your lives already.
Bush was elected by the majority. He is our president. He will lead the country to the best of his ability.
He doesn't act alone either. The Senate and House are all part of the action. It's not like he single-handedly rules the country for shit's sake.
Whiney-assed crybaby idiots just can't seem to accept that Bush got elected and support him instead of bitching about it.
Look. In government as in life, you have two scenarios. Fight or Flight. Bitching gets you nowhere. If you chose to fight, you can either fight for or against. Most whiney-assed crybabies would rather chose flight. Go sit in a corner and pout about not getting their way.
Well, if you're really serious about the flight thing, here's help. If you can honestly blame 'W' and present justification for everything wrong with your life, then I suggest you do it. If he is indeed guilty of all these infractions, maybe he needs to be replaced. If he isn't, then you're just looking for someone's shoulder to cry on and finding a scapegoat for shortcomings of the rest of the government.
Hey, the Senate and House are elected positions too. You put them there. If you say something stupid like "There's nobody in office I voted for." then maybe you need to stand back and take another look at yourself. Does "I'm right and the rest of the world is wrong" mean anything to you?

What a dickhead.

Rall said he was dropped for one "boneheaded" drawing when WashingtonPost.com has "no problem with 99% of my work." He noted that the site could have pulled the one cartoon without canceling him entirely.

Good. I hope more follow suit.
He's such a greedy bastard.
There's just some things better left unsaid/undrawn, unless you're some vote whore on Fark playing around for entertainment. The rest of civilized humanity shouldn't have to be subjected to his self-serving bullshit.
Asshole.

On another note

Chelsea Clinton is still ugly.

 

Michael Moore dreams he is a chocolate cake

"AAAAGGHHHHH!"  I've been poisoned!  I should never have eaten that foot!

 

Planet of the Apes

Some monkey news:

Yahoo! News - Fossil Ape May Be Ancestor of All Apes - Report: "WASHINGTON (Reuters) - An ape that lived 13 million years ago in what is now Spain may have been the last common ancestor of all apes, including chimpanzees, gorillas, orangutans and humans, researchers said on Thursday."

I've often wondered why people who say man descended from apes can't answer this question:
If man did in fact descend from apes, then why are there still apes?

Political? Nyet!

Dammit. I can't help myself. I hate discussing politics and yet sometimes I feel compelled to at least rant. Even if I'm ranting to the blog and no one in particular.
Californians (and when I say 'Californians', I mean the leftist, nanny, tree-hugging, granola-crunching, smoke-free-unless-you're-out-in-the-smog, hippie, Berkley types, not the handful or normal human beings) have all of a sudden decided they want the constitution ammended/changed to enable Arnold to run for president.
I think I could go on a while longer, but the fact that it's coming out of California really says it all.

Democraps

Below is a NSFW link to a cartoon.
"Birth of the Democrat Party."

Prepare to guffaw.

Update: Sometimes it works, sometimes it don't.
Sorry.

A fun read

Christina is in the process of finishing up a story. It is some entertaining stuff.
She began with input/ideas from her readers and built the story around it.
Enjoy.

Coupla Jokes

Q- Why did God invent women?

Har...

Can't we all get along?

Grandpa Joke

Bwah:

A small boy was lost at a large shopping mall.
He approached a uniformed policeman and said,
"I've lost my grandpa" The cop asked, "What's he like?"

The little boy replied,
"Jack Daniels and women with big tits."

K-Mart buying Sears?

Bob Villa grasps his chest, staggers, and cries out "I'm comin' 'Lizabeth!"

I hope Sears retains their quality and warantee.  Please don't let them start selling K-Mart shit.

Ted Nugent weeps?

I think that if you want to hunt, and are able to hunt, then you hunt.
You buy a rifle and whatever other equipment you need, you wander around the area looking for your game, dodge bullets from other idiot hunters, then when you locate your game you take it.
You also USE it. You don't leave the meat laying there to rot and mount the head on the wall, you either consume it yourself or you give to someone who will.

What you don't do is sit at your computer and shoot one by remote control.

I read a story today on Yahoo! (I won't bother with the link) where some moron wants to set up a web site where you can shoot animals using your computer. A sort of remote control which, using a mounted rifle and a camera, enables the user to locate and shoot an animal via the web. A person on the property will then gather the animal and either have it sent to you after processing or send it to a charity.

Now the biggest issues I have with this are:

First, get off your lazy ass. Exception: Someone who is physically unable to hunt. But that's a whole 'nuther critter we'll get to later.

Second, I believe in a clean kill. You shouldn't be out there blasting away if you don't know what you're doing. You should be capable of taking one shot and either downing the game on the spot, or critically wounding it enough to where it will not suffer. Under no circumstances should you be a poor enough hunter you wound an animal and lose it when it bolts. Don't tell me a remote control rifle and camera are going to be precise enough to be the equivelant of a hunter who spends many days and hundreds of rounds at the target range, I know better.

Third, what expendible sucker are they going to hire to be anywhere near the gun when some moron sitting at a computer miles away is in control of the sights? I wouldn't want to be anywhere within 5 miles of that contraption.

Now for the exception of someone who's physically unable to hunt. Chances are, there aren't that many incapacitated people who are really interested in hunting and are unable to buy a ticket to one of the other many game farms or reserves where they could gain access. If they can't get out of their house at all, buy a video game. It would have about as much of the thrill of the chase anyway, and the game could be taken by someone who is interested in the actual hunt.

Update: Now if we were to mount said units on some sort of mobile device and send it by remote through the streets of Iraq....

Brew update

That was cool. I did the bottling/kegging last night, and also transferred the amber to the secondary.
First, the Tap-A-Draft jugs sure made it a lot easier to 'bottle' the batch. Instead of ~50 bottles to take care of and cap, I had 3 jugs. There was a little left over after filling the jugs which I did put into 3 twelve ounce bottles, but how nice not to deal with all those individual bottles.
The batch: Wheat Stout. It sorta looked liked Starbucks coffee going down the filler tube, but it sure smelled good.
The amber ale is a nice coppery color, with a fairly hoppy fragrance, and is next in line for the jugs.
I have 6 jugs and 2 taps. If this works out good I will have to get more.
Thanks to Hog On Ice for the inspiration!

Speaking of sandwiches

Michael Moore dreams he is a balogna sandwich:

"I'm not either full of shit!  I'm full of baloney!"

 

Random thought

When is Pepsi going to get with the program and follow the other beverage bottlers who put their cans in the 2X6 'Fridge Pack'?
They continue to use the 3X4 box and it just doesn't fit as well as the others.

Mmmm. Loosely quoted

Life is like a salami sandwich.

You never know what you're going to get.

 

A bad joke

But I laughed anyway:
 
THREE old Ladies named Gertrude, Maude, and Tilly were sitting on a park bench having a quiet conversation when a flasher approached from across the park.

The man came up to the ladies, stood right in front of them, opened his trench coat and exposed himself.
Gertrude immediately had a stroke.
And then Maude also had a stroke.
But Tilly, being older and feebler, bless her heart, couldn't reach that far.

This is war

Launch an investigation? Morons. If it wasn't for the liberal media showing the thing on t.v., it wouldn't be an issue.

I'm talking about the marine "...under investigation for killing a wounded Iraqi during the offensive in Falluja ".

These people have been in the heat of the battle, another unit had already been hit by a booby-trapped wounded Iraqi, and they weren't taking any chances.

I've never been in the service not to mention in a war. But I think that I would have been more ready to shoot first and ask questions later than die.
Maybe it would have been better to lob a few shells to level the place, then build a new road with the rubble and bones.
