These anti-France riots seem to be becoming a recurring theme

Anyone remember just a year ago in the Ivory Coast?
They were facing rioting there, too. But instead of just letting them fan the fires, they started shooting unarmed protesters.

I guess there were differences, they were part of a U.N.illateral invasion of sovereign soil. The Ivory Coast was a colony of theirs (the people weren't imported), they were fed-up with a history of French interference, they didn't set cripples on fire. They were also unarmed.

That was on Nov. 10, 2004 when the valiant French Army fired their ASSAULT weapons into an unarmed crowd killing and wounding many.

This year, to answer the MOSLEM rioters who are trying to burn anything they can- including cops and cripples.
The French answer to the 11th day of these "spontaneous" jihads are, , , to hold MEETINGS to decide what to do!

Everyone's watching Jock, even us Americans who you presume to lecture on race and religious tolerance.

Go ahead big boy- show us what you can do.

Or do you want us (the U.S.) to come in and pull your fat out of the fire again?

Which US Naval command lets their fruit run free?

Where do Grapes, Oranges, Lemons and Limes have the run of ship


On a Flight deck!

Each shirt color has it's specialized job.
Red (apples)= Armorers/Explosives Firefighting
Green(limes)= Aircraft handlers/and jacks -of-all-trades (Firefighting)
Purple(grapes)=Fueling (Firefighting)

I can't remember the rest.

(UPDATE 5:16PM) Ok, there is a link to the official colors of the flight deck. My appologies to all who knew/know better.

(UPDATE Nov 06) Lets see if this link works better.

I'm just reading about what's going on in France

I really should be aghast and all out of sorts about how the adherants to the "Religion of Peace" are reacting to a pair of juvies electrocuing themselves.

But I'm not.
I'm sorry to tell you that I look at it as their (Frances) just deserts. They allowed the cheap labor that had NO affinity with the host country.
They were allowed to form their own mini cultures and enclaves exempt from the common and historical ummm,,,,,, culture of their host country- including their own language (seperate from the host), their own habits and mores (again not the same as the host culture), no respect or patriotism at all to the country who was giving them jobs, shelter and all the goodies of the nanny state.

I've heard speculation that it's not sporadic and isolated events, more some kind of Jihad.

But WHY you ask? Because France is majority Christian, it hasn't accepted the Calephate as the ruling religion.
It doesn't matter (to the moslem) that they do everything they can to shut down America any way they can. They don't care about Frances' cowering to islam. They want to control France.

France is getting what it's been asking for for decades. The craven cowering to anyone who raises their victimhood is eating their inner city slums right now.

I have to feel for the ones trapped whohad no hand in this tinderbox, but I can't dredge up any kind of feeling for the government, or the religion of the rioters.


If you look at the alienation of the "cheap" labor, it kinda looks like what has been happening (to a much lesser degree) here.

Bird flue strikes America






You can now PANIC.


(UPDATE NOV 04-05)
I'm going to hafta remember to DOWNLOAD the pics I steal from Dogsnot before I try to post them, sorry.
Well, at least Bush and Co. can snow the Beeb

When they talk about shutting down illegals at the border.

Any American that has any kind of a clue knows that an extra 1,000 agents won't make much of a dent without some other dis-incentives.

We have employers who turn a blind eye on obviously false documentation.
A public safety net that's better than the well off in Mexico can afford
  • FREE health care
  • FREE public schools- you don't even have to go thru the bother of learning english
  • FREE money for food (food stamps)
  • FREE rent (even if it is Sect. 8 or the projects)
  • TAXPAYER subsidized utilities
  • TAXPAYER funded instate higher education


You can even vote if you're so inclined.
Now, there are prestigious banks advertising HOME LOANS to illegals.

We'll never get a handle on these illegals as long as we have all these handouts.

Bush and Co. are nothing more than talk- and worse their amnesty undocumented reform programs add yet another incentive to hop that fence.

So much to post about, so little talent.

I'll leave the Liberal hissy fit to others today.

Two of the three things are from San Antonio all or in part, and the other is Texas wide.

As you remember, San Antonio among others took in alot of Katie refugees. Apparently, FEMA is not paying their rent anymore and our RINO-in-Charge Rick Perry (R) is talking about shifting responsibility to other government agencies. I've heard alot about the poor refugees and the landlords who don't want to be forced to turn them out right before the holidays.

OK, the landlords have some kind of heart. They need their rent though, that's why they have these places out to rent. All I've heard today was who is going to take responsibility for these people.

The ONE thing I specifically DO NOT hear was the people needing to take responsibility for themselves- you know GET A F*CKING JOB so you can pay your rent!


Second, on a local talkradio program, theyt were talking about the new S.A. city ordinance allowing for towing vehicles without insurance. GREAT! WOOHOO! Lets get those who lost their insurance because of excessive wrecks off the road. That goes for the ones who can't/won't pay for insurance because they're too irresponsible. I'm all for it, but I'm sure we'll be hearing from the ILLEGAL apologists as soon as the first mojado gets their car towed because they rear-ended someone.


Rick Perry was visiting S.A. today and he proposed a teacher incentive plan. Sounds good. What is it? How about a MINIMUM of $100,000 per "Schools that show marked improvements in student performance would be eligible for a grant of at least $100,000 to distribute to the teachers they determine are having the greatest impact," Perry said. "A minimum of 75% of the funds sent to a campus must go directly to those hard working teachers who have been improving the learning in the classroom.

Sure, the better the teacher, the more (s)he should be paid. Where will the money come from?
Perry implemented the incentive program by executive order, and said $10 million in 'existing discretionary federal funds' will be used to pay for it.

OH? Why not send it BACK to D.C.?
Well, then we couldn't add our states tax money could we?
Perry said he will ask the Legislative Budget Board, which has control over the Texas budget when the legislature is not in session, to approve an additional $25 million in state funds to expand the program to another 250 schools.
Again where will the money come from? The over chargo on our property taxes that they won't give back- maybe?


Finally, I'm not even going to touch this publicly financed exercise in political hate speech compliments of the city's hotel/motel tax.

Anybody want a '98 Chevy pick-up?

I'm sure you could get it pretty cheap.

It's only wrecked on the right side.

Could use a new hood, and windshield- and an alignment probably wouldn't hurt either.
Ok all you Libs, You keep equating Conservatsm with Fascism

Here's what you, Mother Sheehan and the rest of your "Patriotic" cause would face if Bush really were as bad as you claim.

Exept this come from political protests in Ethiopia.
Maybe they learned from Bu$Hitler.

I'd like to ask my readers comments on this

Yep, I'm asking all three of you to read and comment.

Wife and I are having a "disagreement" on ummm,,,, to be delicate- 'shortcloths'.
We've had this go around before, and the girls have both heard it-I though it was settled.

I had to put the girls ( 14 & 17) cloths into the dryer Sunday.
After the first armload a piece (pair?) of anal floss fell onto the floor. I threw it away- it was small enough for the 14 yr-old. The next armload was another -whatever- on top, belonging to #17.

They both know that they were banned from wearing that slutty underwear.

All the females (except Meg-the-dog) are from England, and see nothing wrong with putting out a "DO-ME" message in their underwear. Because "It's comfortable" and "(tsk) guys don't even THINK of sex when they see these" and "It's nothing- I don't know WHY you're making such a big deal out of this."

My take- I'm a guy. I was a teenage guy- I KNOW what teenage guys are thinking about.
If I saw a girl; a EUROPEAN girl wearing that anal floss (or nothing- who can tell?), I know the first thing to come to mind would NOT be "Gee- she must be wearing that because it's comfortable." It would be something like "WOW! No panties, AND she's from Europe- where they have recreational sex at the drop of a hat. I wonder just how easy she is?"

Now the question.

Thongs: worn for comfort or advertising?
Well, I certainly hope we won't hear L.U.L.A.C gnashing their teeth over this SCOTUS nominee

Since L.U.L.A.C. represents LATIN American citizens.
Unless he's not the "right" kind of Latin citizen, being an Italian and all.

Anyone who has the Left howling like Federal Appeals Court Judge Samuel Alito has GOT to be good for the country, or the Constitution at least.

Ok, W you did right this time. Lets try to get on track with the Republican conservative base a little more often, ok?

A sports story




This is a detective story

So Pay Close Attention!!!






Three elderly ladies are excited about seeing their first baseball game




They smuggle a bottle of Jack into the ball park




The game is real exciting and they are enjoying themselves immensely...
mixing the Jack Daniel's with soft drinks.





Soon they realize that the bottle is almost gone
and the game has a lot of innings to go.



Based on the given information, what inning is it

and how many players are on base?











Think!













Think some more!!













You're gonna love it .













Answer:



It's the bottom of the fifth

and the bags are loaded!

OK, I didn't say it was a GOOD sports story
I keep hearing about Scooter Libby

I don't really care about that snip hunt they call the Plame outing.
I remember seeing her on the front cover of several magazines BEFORE she was "outed" by...

UMmmm, , ,

well, , ,

" we're not sure, but the Bush Whitehouse was involved AFTRE it was all over the MSM, so we'll go after them."

Now, Scooter Libby has been indicted for lying, falsehoods, mis-statements, faulty memory- you choose the word depending on which side you fall on.

Ok, what I remember is that a former president, his wife, and most of his people got away with a HELL of alot more than just "lying" by 'not remembering' what they were being asked about. One prominent member was charged with Perjury for helping an intern lie in a deposition.

Now, the very SAME people who were tripping all over themselves for camera time to defend blatent, baldfaced improbable lies are trying to find the high road by wailing and gnashing their teeth about the other party being in the same situation as they used to be; by calling for resignations, and appologies.

Is there ANY honor in the DNC any more?
Did anyone over there FINALLY remember who hired Craig Livingstone (of the 1,000+ FBI files)?

If they were so worried about CIA agents being outed, maybe they should look at Sen. Kerry for calling a REAL covert agent by name on the Senate floor, instead of chasing after a glorified secretary who hadn't been officially out of the country in 7 years.
What I did on my Saturday vacation

About a month ago I had to slam on my brakes to avoid a run-in with a Schnieder semi.
My truck picked up a bit (somekind) of a harmonic whine at around 70-75 MPH from the left front. I took it to the Brakecheck on Perrin-Bietle since I'd had the entire front end re-done at their San Marcos shop about a year ago. They didn't 'find' anything wrong with my front brakes, or bearings (Hmmm, you don't know my truck like I do). They DID, howerver reccomend they do a bearing and seal job to my rearend. To the tune of about $350. "Because you can start to feel the bearings when you rotate the wheel" (AHHH, well that kinda feels like the gears in my differential- which I've been meaning to add 90 wgt. to for about 6 months)

"Ok, so I don't have a problem with my front wheels?"
'None that we could find, but I would highly reccomment you get that rear end serviced'
"I'll think about it."

Now, almost a month later I take it in to the Brakecheck on Marbach because the truck is really starting to show brake problems- brake smell, HOT rotors, losing almost 1½ MPG. . .

"Mr. P. we found your brake callipers were stuck, your rotors are heat glazed and need to be resurfaced, your pads are shot (well at least you eat that cost), as hot as your wheels got, your bearings really should be replaced before they (seize-up and cut my spindle like a pipe-cutter). Your rear brakes need to be turned, your wheel cylinders are leaking and your shoes are so old they have spider cracks.

Ok, because the N.E. side Brakecheck didn't put my visit into their computer, it ended up costing me $371 in parts and labor- and almost 5 hours of listening to either Sat. AM cartoons or Mexican language TV.

I told the store manager I'd do the back brakes, just throw the drums on a lath (at $25 each) so I don't have to come back.

I got all the way home before I looked at my cell phone that I'd left charging in the truck.
My Real Estate agent had called (from San Marcos - about 90 min away from here) and wanted me to sign some forms so my bidder could start the buying prosses on the trailer. I want to get it out of my loan file, so we sold $6,000 less than I'd have liked.

I also spent $40 to get a prgrammable thermostat that "Slimer" couldn't change- since no-one in the house EVER thinks about resetting the thing. I came in Fri. and the A/C was set at 55º. No one had a clue how it got their, or how long it was like that.

Can someone explain PDF to me?

As you all know, I live in the sticks (ok, Tx brush country) and have a 26K connection -when SBC lets me.

I was adventurous enough to try opening this PDF file from Utterly Boring and, needless to say I gave up on opening it before tomorrow.

I *know* it stands for some kind of data file. WHY do people use it? I don't think I've heard of anyone who likes it (but I don't hang alot with computer geeks). All I know is that I dread clicking on a link with a PDF warning on it. I don't if I don't NEED to look. I shy away from video, too- same 26K reason.

Almost everyone has Word, or Apples' version that can be translated, why is PDF so used?
Do not, , , EVER , , ,join Curves

The wife did and signed up for the auto deduction.
She's been trying for the past four months to get them to cancel - they still are thaking their $31/mo out of our checking account.

The Bank can't help because Curves changes the day they steal our money. If they did it on the same day every month, the bank could stop payments.

I'll never let her do auto payments again.

Instructions on cleaning your toilet


1. Put both lids of the toilet up and add 1/8 cup of pet shampoo to the water in the bowl.

2. Pick up the cat and soothe him while you carry him towards the bathroom.

3. In one smooth movement, put the cat in the toilet and close both lids. You may need to stand on the lid.

4. The cat will self agitate and make ample suds. Never mind the noises that come from the toilet, the cat is actually enjoying this.

5. Flush the toilet three or four times. This provides a "power-wash" and rinse".

6. Have someone open the front door of your home. Be sure that there are no people between the bathroom and the front door.

7. Stand behind the toilet as far as you can, and quickly lift both lids.

8. The cat will rocket out of the toilet, streak through the bathroom, and run outside where he will dry himself off.

9. Both the commode and the cat will be sparkling clean.

Sincerely,

The Dog

I'm not making any recommendations, just copied it from the Tx Sec. of State website. All I did was remove language that should be unnecessary in the United States.

We just got done eating a pig brisket

No wonder those bloggers from back east think a vinegar based sauce used on pigs is right. We just had a BRISKET with bones in it!

If you barbeque in Texas you use Beef brisket from the chest of the cow. It does NOT have ribs in it- we call that cut "ribs".

I know it's revolting to those who use what the Brits put on their fries as a base, but here we use tomato sause as a starting point. Since I have a sweet tooth, it also has alot of brown sugar in it, too; as anyone who's had my Teriaki Jerky can tell you.

To cook a good brisket you cook it over a low slow heat for a good 8-12 hours, about 2-3 hours before you pull it out, you start swabbing it with the sauce (of your choice). Putting meat on a grill and high heat is grilling and no matter how MUCH sauce you douse on it won't turn it into BBQ.

Since I haven't made a smoker, I use the oven. I put the (beef) brisket in and cook it about 200º for about eight hours.

My version of sauce goes something like this:
  • 1 can Tomato Sauce
  • 1 good squirt Yellow Mustard
  • ½ cup or so Brown Sugar
  • ¼ Sweet Onion -finely chopped
  • 1½ TBS (to taste) EA of the following (it'll mellow out in cooking):
Garlic Powder
Ground Cumino
Cayanne (Red) Pepper
  • To taste White Pepper
  • Good shake Sweet Basil
  • Good shake Cinnimon
  • (Optional) dash of Liquid Smoke
Heat and stir as you add the ingredients. Taste and adjust spices as needed.

To prepare the meat, I usually let it sit with a good rub all night in the refrigerator, wrap it in aluminum foil and drop it in the oven.
Dear Senator Hutchinson,

I voted for you more than once.
It has become more and more apparent that you and the rest of my representatives up in D.C. have forgotten where you come from.

I had a quick look at your voting record- after you voted to table most (if not all) of Sen. Coburns' (R. Ok) Fiscal amendments.

I know I'll never hear any replies because I'm not on any of your high dollar donors lists. I would however, love to hear your reasons for throwing money away like drunken Democrats, though.

I just wanted to get this off my chest, since I'll be looking for a seriously CONSERVATIVE representaive to vote for in your next election. I will remember how you and the rest of the Republicans have been running (or not) this country since you took a majority in almost all branches of government.

A dissapointed former Republican,
Kurt P



I just sent this to the electronic version of a federal shredder. I'll let you know if I ever hear anything back. (Don't hold your breath.)
Just in case you're wondering what the EPA says about your vehicle

You can find out the reported fuel economy at their site that gives estimated milage for modles 1985 and up.
I'm looking for a spare vehicle and finally found this after ALOT of dead ends.

Currently at the top of the list is a 1988 Dakota V-6 w/ new-repaired drivetrain within the last 2 years and an 3 yr-old radiator for $1700 OBO.
Since those on the Left like the Latin root words so much

You know, like HOMOPhobe, Xenophobe, Neocons, Paleocons

How about lets start with a nice perjorative Latin term for those on the Left?

Lets try sinister, or more accurately Sinistral.

The TV is on for background noise

Am I the only one that finds the Earthlink commercial with the goblins, giants and faries kinda creepy?

Also thinking about ads I wouldn't spend my money on.

The radio commercial for Izuzu. I'm old enough to remember Joe Izuzu and the fun they had with the Izuzu brand. Now, they've taken the low road with their ads.
(As a quick background- Mitsubishi has ther spokesguy who kinda sounds like McGruff with a soft N.Y. accent)
Now Izuzu has found McGruffs deadbeat unclein the gutter, and got him to slag-off on any kind of competitor they can think of Ford Explorer, Jeep, Mitsu, RAV4, you name it. He's got a grating, irritating voice and accent- and a vile on-air personality. The ad agency must get this bum likkered-up on the cheapest, roughest rot-gut they can find to get that "cutting edge" , , , , , ummm, , , "edgieness".
I would NEVER spend the money they want to someone who puts out an ad like that.


And Buger King- if that plastic faced creep ever shows up at casa Trainwreck, everyone agrees that he's going to have bullet holes in him. If I don't do it, the girls will.

And last but not least- Quiznos has Bob the babe magnet wich is alot better than the previous east coast "hipness" of the mummified rats that couldn't sing. (Mrs. Trainwreck still won't eat there- she wonders what happened to the two rats)
Here's a Senate vote to make you rethink YOUR vote next time

Thursday the senate held a vote related to controlling spending by moving SOME pork to help pay for Katies mess on the gulf coast.

I'll make the post short by listing the Senators who voted for Sen Tom Coburn, R-OK pork amendment:
NAYs ---13 (Yea was to kill the amendment Nay was to pass it- how laweresque)
Allen (R-VA)Hagel (R-NE)
Burr (R-NC)Kyl (R-AZ)
Coburn (R-OK) McCain (R-AZ)
DeMint (R-SC) Talent (R-MO)
Ensign (R-NV) Sununu (R-NH)
Feingold (D-WI) Sessions (R-AL)
Graham (R-SC)


Here's the rest.

I plan on asking MY (RINO) Senators why they'd rather spend even more money than needed. (I *KNOW* why- they're politicians- I want to know why they voted to kill the amendment)
Gov. Bill Richardson praises NoKorea of abandoning it's Nukes

Well he oghtta know about Nuclear energy as Bill Clintons Energy Secretary and NoKo's nuks for nothing program.

As one of the FEW Clintonistas to get out if D.C. without an indictment on him, he was also a prime apologist for the U.N. under that administration.

According to N.M. Governer Bill Richardson(D):
North Korea is committed to dismantling its nuclear weapons programme, an unofficial US envoy has said, after a visit to the capital Pyongyang.

Bill Richardson said he was "very pleased" with North Korea's willingness to make progress in six-nation talks.

Pyongyang has already pledged to abandon its nuclear weapons in an earlier round of the talks.

Mr Richardson, former US ambassador at the UN, said North Korea now wanted to focus on a civilian nuclear programme.


Hmmmm....... where have we heard something like that before?

Oh, yeah, it was during Bills' time in D.C.

The United States and North Korea signed an agreement on October 21, 1994, that offers North Korea a package of benefits in return for a freeze of North Korea's nuclear program. Benefits to North Korea include: light water nuclear reactors totaling 2,000 electric megawatts by the year 2003; shipments of "heavy oil" to North Korea (50,000 tons in 1995 and 500,000 tons annually beginning in 1996 until the first light water reactor is built); U.S. agreement to establish liaison offices as an initial step toward diplomatic relations; and a relaxation of the American economic embargo against North Korea. In December 1995, the United States and North Korea signed a supply contract for the light water reactors.


But, then- Leftist Socialists Commies being Commies:
The stepped-up pace in 1996 in the implementation of the nuclear provisions of the U.S.-North Korean Agreed Framework of October 1994 came to a halt in September 1996 because of a North Korean infiltration of commandos into South Korea by submarine. The commandos murdered several South Korean civilians. At the same time, evidence, albeit circumstantial, pointed to North Korean complicity in the assassination of a South Korean diplomat in Vladivostok, Russia.
