Thanks to my superior driving skills I avoided anything near a close call.

I notice that gas prices took a nickle jump yesterday

I wonder what kind of trouble made that happen?
It couldn't be the news that in Iraq, the attacks on the pipelines have stopped could it?

Or that the volatil oils market is reacting to the news that Iraq is producing at the highest level since the war started.

It couldn't possibly be that the oil companies are just gouging us because of the 4th of July weekend, could it?

I've layed off the oil companies because I realize the "record profits" are part of mass marketing.
The laws of supply ans demand etc... But Goddammit- enough is enough!!
Somebody needs to bitchslap those executives for profiteering, now. What the f*ck is their excuse? People will be driving on this 4 day weekend- we can really mug them now----because they don't have any options.

You may notice that the "One year ago, I was paying $1.37 for gas" is gone. That's because it's been over a year since the oil companies have been screwing us.
I told my father-in-law(a Brit), when he asked about the gas price spike- "It'll go down, it always does". Boy, I was wrong big time.

Throw 'em all in jail

Why go through the expense and effort of trying to kill our troops when you can just as effectivly take them out by accusing them of murder and rape. As an added incentive, the U.S. government will pay you for your story.

Think of it, toss up several false accusations of murder or rape and "poof-their-gone". They end up in the states shackled for 23 hours straight and end up spending hundereds of thousands of dollars defending themselves from their own chain of command.

Because, you know Terrorists would NEVER lie about something like that. Because, ya know how upright and manly they are.


Why carp about an "exit strategy" when all combat troops will be in prison making lawyers rich by defending themselves against false charges.

In today's feature on the imbecile animal rights front- we have a lawsuit to stop the Navy using sonar.


Environmental groups sued the federal government Wednesday to prevent the Navy from using active sonar during drills off Hawaii next month, saying the sound could harm whales and other marine mammals. The Natural Resources Defense Council asked a federal court in Los Angeles to issue a temporary restraining order unless the Navy takes "effective measures" to protect marine life when it uses high-intensity, mid-frequency active sonar to hunt submarines in the drills.

-snip-

The permit comes after NOAA said in April that Navy use of sonar during maritime exercises off Hawaii in 2004 may have contributed to the mass stranding of more than 150 whales. The report, however, did not say definitively that the sonar caused the whales to gather in the bay. The Navy agreed to several measures to limit the impact its sonar might have on whales and dolphins, including not using active sonar in coastal waters — except in channels between some of the islands — and lowering the sonar's power when marine mammals are nearby.

So, sonar is the (probable) cause of mass beachings? What was the cause before WWII?
Besides, the world is getting noisier. I have to put up with the @ssholes that insist on shaking my truck with their f*cking 25"speakers, the whales can learn to live with sonar.

Ahhhh, the wonders of having NO expectations

I just got home.
I took the garbage to the street- I left the two cans behind the big truck when I left(as a signal that they needed to go). I didn't expect anyone except me top do it. I wasn't wrong.

I got into the house and was greeted with an empty Tombstone cardboard. Figures; I mean- really- who wants to come home at gawd-only-knows-what-time of the morning, and wants to eat and go to bed? Now I'm here waiting for the hamburger to cook down, so I can turn it into hamburger helper. Why should I complain? Mom worked 8 hours and the three girls didn't think about even cleaning the cutting board they used to make that nasty guacamole- it's been two days that I've been throwing both cutting boards into the sink--just to find the filthy things sitting on the counter yet again.
The dishwasher is almost empty, but the dishes are piled in the sink.

The girls are going to England for 4 weeks (I think) and mom is going for two.
it'll be nice to batch for a while- things stay clean when you clean them. Things don't just-end up- lost, or broken, or filthy- and nobody knows what happened.

When I'm by myself, I clean what I make dirty, and actually put it away.
If the garbage is full, I take it out- not ignore the crap that's falling on the floor.
I clean the stove when I make a mess.
I put the dirty dishes in the dishwasher and don't turn it on when there's 6 f*cking things in it.
I can look at the outside waterbowl, and actually fill it when it's dry.
I wipe up my spills, so I don't have my feet sticking to the floor.
When I'm batching, I'll actually be able to plan meals three days ain advance--and have what I bought for it--available.


I'm anal like that. It came from the military.
Besides, I'm not a selfish, lazy teenager.

The hamburger is ready, and now we have to wait for the pasta to soften for our "Beef and Pasta" meal... ohh, and add time to let it cool down, too. Looks like about a 4AM bedtime.

Drew Curtis doesn't like this picture

I note the fact that he got the flags decription wrong (as usual).
I'd bet that you could almost wear the original Confederate flag down the streets of N'awlins-With Jesse Jackson, and nobody would raise an eyebrow, much less be "offended" at "what it represents". Hell, Jesse probably woudn't recognize it either.

The reason the other flag was used on the battlefield because the two national flags were too easy to be mistaken- with deadly results.

And in anther a shocking display of hypocrisy

the Liberals in L.A. are using their city to block the free speech of animal lovers.
That's right, they want to stop Hooters from their constitutional right of freedom of speech.

This is Hollywood we're talking about, the same people who want to force everything homosexual on everyone in America- and if you object, YOU are the problem. The same ones who have no problem (I don't either) in throwing a gratuitous female nude scene into a movie to boost sales.
Wants to censor a private business holding a fundraiser.

Boks promised a more rigorous vetting process for future fundraisers.

The fundraiser is not city-sponsored, but a promoting flier is posted on the Animal Services Web site.

The original flier showed a bikini-clad woman, but the latest version shows a dog wearing a T-shirt that says "Hooters for Neuters."

I bet they'd get more money with the babe- but that's sooooooo un-PC.

...And in a related bit of PC run amok.
In John Kerry's Mass. (he was in 'Nam, ya know?) - a Finance Committee member is in trouble for an e-mail she sent to an awards committee.
Here is the offensive language.
"Lord, that girl has sat over there with those testosterone gushers for 37 years and lived to tell about it," Arnold wrote in an e-mail dated June 16.

BUT, some were "offended" by it:
Sgt. Thomas Plourde, president of the Police Officers of Westport Alliance, said Arnold should step down. He told the Standard-Times of New Bedford that he would ask town selectmen to look into her remarks.

Her response:
"I mean, they've got biceps 10 inches around. My God," she told the newspaper. "I mean, have you seen their shoulders? They're huge. Their shirts are tight, they are busting out of them. Â… Testosterone is just a metaphor. "If I was in trouble, I'd want one of those big moose to be there," she said.

Some people are just looking to be "offended".

If this isn't enough to keep you awake tonight

You must read Steven King to your kids as bedtime stories.

We've been hearing about the "Trans-Texas Corridor" for a while, here. In our rumors, it is supposed to make it easier to go fast in central Texas, a conduit from Larado to Dallas 400 yards wide with railroads, petroleum pipelines, comm lines and all kinds of other goodies. Oh, and there will be pretty much no speed limit.

That's only part of it. Now comes the part where y'all accuse me of listening to those overnight coast-to-coast radio programs where they discuss their latest UFO abductions.

There may be a reason besides Bush being in the pockes of his contributors that he's blowing off our illegal problem. How about the North American Union with NO borders between Mexico, the U.S. and Canada? The first time a Mexican semi is inspected is in St. Louis, Mo from Baja Mexico.

See, you haven't heard about it, and no-one in Congress will admit to being involved because Bush is doing it all under the table. No oversite needed, just a tri-lateral commision where America used to be.

Ohhh, and that pesky illegal problem? It'll just go away since there are no borders anymore.

Via Michael Reagan (and other radio programs).

I finally got rid of my tick

I was heading homs and passed him (her?) around the I-10 and I-35 interchange.
Did you ever have someone that just *wouldn't* , no- refused to pass you no matter how slow you went? How about someone who didn't want to be left behind, so they sped up when you did?

How about this on a highway at 2:30Am with us as the only ones going west? My tick stayed with me for over 30 miles untill I turned into my subdivision.

I bet he was lonely after that- hadda turn around and head back to San Antonio just to have company.

Gawd, how depressing

How absolutely oppressive it must be to live there.

Here are a series of pictures by a Russian tourist in Uncle Kims N. Korea.

I know These won't get shown around much, since most of the MSM is infatuated with all forms of Socialist behavior. They and their fellow travelers are under the belief that the USSR fell because it didn't have their brilliant insights on how to make it work.

They fail to realize that while it might be good to be the top dog, somehow or other the bottom dog ends up on top. I realized that a long time ago, and want the same rules applied to all. These Libs seem to think that when if all these programs they want to force on us, that they'll always be getting the steak instead of the bone.
Those pics show that theirs not room at the top for everyone, and America could end up looking like that under their economic programs if they ever got into power.

Arianna Huffington

I'm sorry.
I know she's supposed to be a *cough* heavy political voice; but every time I hear her on the radio I hear this



in the back of my mind.

You're probably going to be hearing alot about this

Maybe, depends on how hot the illegal thing gets before the election.

A group of 500 has sent a letter to D.C. in support of immigration as "Immigration is the greatest anti-poverty program ever conceived."


"Not just because the immigrants are much better off, but also because they send billions of dollars of their own money back to their home countries - a form of truly effective foreign aid," concluded the 500-plus signatories of an "Open Letter on Immigration to President Bush and Congress" dispatched this week.

Ok, so we can quit throwing money away in foreign Aid?

The Open Letter on Immigration, a project of the Independent Institute, a prominent think tank headquartered in Oakland, Calif., reminds President Bush and all members of Congress of America's history as an immigrant nation. They present the overall economic and social benefits of immigration, and the power of immigration to lift the poor out of poverty: "America is a generous and open country and these qualities make America a beacon to the world. We should not let exaggerated fears dim that beacon."

I don't, and can't remember when I've heard anyone denigrate LEGAL immigrants. In general, I mean (not the Irish, Italian, German, Pole bashing that's natural when you get a bunch of funny talking ferners disrupting your nice comfortable rut).
What has America up in arms about is the flood of anti American illegal immigrants who refuse to become assimilated. Who demand special privileges, and a President and Senate who are overwilling to reward lawbreaking with citizenship- for perceived political gain.

Everyone who has the slightest familiarity with the history of America knows that we are a nation of LEGAL immigrants who came here to BECOME Americans. Remember the melting pot analogy?
Then came the "salad bowl" analogy by our balkanization proponents.

You need a melting pot to make steel- which can be used to make swords or shields to defend the vulnerable; or plows and pots to raise and nourish those same afterwards.

A salad bowl is good for one sitting before it turns to cr@p.


BTW- notice any special words missing from the letter?
How about the word ILLEGAL everytime they glorify immigrants?

The things you hear on the radio at 3AM

I just got home and was listening to the 'Best of Mike Gallagher" - you look for the link, I'm tired.
They had a section on the U-Fla .......ummmm

requiring you to swear that you were having sex with your domestic partner, in order to receive health bennies.

Two things popped into my befuddled brain.
1- Ok, now WHO were the ones accusing Republicans of invading Americas bedrooms? Wasn't it a bunch of libs?

and
2- OK , you and your bud head down to any Mexican border-town and have sex with the whores in the same room- wouldn't that be a Clintonesque way of 'having sex' with your domestic partner? I mean- C'mon you're a guy- you're of work and your Best Friend (BF from now on) has a gravy job cleaning fishtanks-- with free health, wouldn't you jump on it? I mean now-a-days it's (supposed)to be cool to be gay.

Would it be ok if he were using it "for the children"?

Here we have a greedy corperation denying a "needy" person access to their free service because he didn't buy their product. They even had the police charge him for theft of sevices.

His crime? He was using a Vancouver, Wash. cofee shop's wireless internet in the street.
Aren't these the same people who want to grab your money and redistribute it to those who "need" it more than you, because you have so much? The same kind of people who applauded the Goretax on telephones to ensure access to AlGores internet in schools?
Doesn't it go to show that he was on the wrong side of "the digital divide" and felt the need to use something provided for free on a public street?
It's not like it was morally wrong, since Libs only believe in "Situational Ethics"
instead of right and wrong. Maybe he was an honors grad from their public schools and was morally illiterate.

He also came back after the cops told him to move-on.

HAH, I knew it

Every author loves a plot twist.
Thing is, didn't she know about her sisters politics?

Can someone help me here?

See, I just read this article about global warming. It's not long, so here's the entire thing:

WASHINGTON - The Earth is the hottest it has been in at least 400 years, probably even longer. The National Academy of Sciences, reaching that conclusion in a broad review of scientific work requested by Congress, reported Thursday that the "recent warmth is unprecedented for at least the last 400 years and potentially the last several millennia."

So what I understand from that is that in 1606 (more or less) the earth was as warm as it is today. Then it had to have cooled down, so it could warm up again. Right?

Same thing goes even if it were millennia- it was as hot then as it is now.
Isn't the earth like BILLIONS of years old? How long has man have people been polluting the air with greenhouse gasses?

The question is: During the 70's we were going to all freeze to death because of the new ice age, now we're going to fry to death---------does global warming pay more than global freezing? And who's getting rich off of it?

Nothing going on in the world, I see

Nothing outrageous, or blatantly inhumane has happened anywhere in the last week, or so.
Yep, the Liberals minutemen of Iraq haven't crossed the line of decency rock bottom expectations in ages.
Whatever happens to our troops stays in Iraq- as long as some anti-American mouth doesn't accuse them of anything. Then all hell breaks loose, and the international community is up in arms about the brutality committed in the name of (your choice here).

I wonder what certain Liberal Blogs will have to say about this, since they weren't "mercenaries".
It's good, I guess that we are held to higher standards than those we're fighting. Good for them, or the entire "triangle of death" would be a smoking heap of rubble.

F*cking animals.

Isn't Britain one of those enlightened European countries

who are trying to tell us who to preserve our natural resources?

Like water, our electric generation, our factories, our energy use, etc,,,

I know of small municipalities and private two-man operations that could help the city of London do something about losing 894 million Liters a day in water.
They might have them do something almost unheard of---using water meters to help reduce water waste. They might even go to electric meters, too. You know, that evil capitalistic idea that if you use more, you pay more.

Did anyone hear about the new Cabinet post?

The White House announced it today.
I'm sure it was from alot of pressure from the rank and file conservatives.

I see Rep. Jack Murtha (D) is using his military history- again

to tell the *coff* "deserter" Bush how to run the Iraq war.
I'd like to remind all my Liberal readers out there, and some conservative ones too. Just because you served in the military doesn't mean that NOW you have the best interests of the country at heart.




This guy was in the Army- remember him?





This guy was a Marine before Murtha


Remember him?

?

Maybe this will help




Just because you served your country when you were in your early 20's doesn't mean that you oughtta get a pass when you now are only interested in what's in it for you.
That was then, this is now. Like the old saying goes- what have you done lately?

Hey Amire, your resume sounds like an ad in Adultfriendfinders.

I am an exciting fun guy who loves to have fun and outgoing times. I am 5ft 10 inches tall and dark brown eyes with a nice smile which people have told me. I have also short dark brown hair. I describe my figure to be athletic due to I do a lot of sports such as long distance running, soccer and tennis... I find myself to be very honest on all occasions and I can be a romantic at times. I like to make people laugh at my expense so that they aren’t uncomfortable or upset in anyway. Basically I am a very chilled guy and I always put the lady the first.


OK, the guy that bought the laptop on e-bay got screwd, and is showing what an@ss Amir is,,,direct from his hard drive.
Some parts NSFW, but feel free to e-mail Amire with the mail he left on the hard drive. I'm sure he'd love to hear from you.

And here I was told that Rugby players were sooooo, , ,

Masculine, with testosterone ooozing out their ears and all- compared to our wimpy NFL players.

Your Rugby player plays the entire game without any padding, while the average NFL player is cocooned in plastic and only plays on the Offense or Defensive teams.-And makes millions more than a Rugby player.
Your Rugby player thinks a broken shoulder is a minor impediment to his best game, an NFL player has a plastic "codpiece" and needs EMTs to help revive him from an errant knee.

Why am I bringing this up?
Because of this story about a woman streaker. Her old BF wants some of his money back (for "enhancements" he paid for), since she's getting pretty good money offers on a bikini she streaked in at a rugby match.

Now, the final paragraph is the reason for the post:
A recent auction on the site saw a NZ$50 ($31) handbag used by former All Blacks captain Tana Umaga hit a teammate in a barroom fracas fetch NZ$23,000 ($14,300).

OK? a HANDBAG????? A macho rugby players using a purse to hit his buddy with?

$1.4 billion in taxpayer money wasted.

Did that get your attention?

That's what the Katreina oversite commitee called it. (Ok, they didn't actually call it taxpayer money).

I was listening to Michael Gallagher on the way home, and he was talking about the fraud and waste involved in the hurricane Katerina fiasco.

What I want to know is, Why is anyone suprized about it?
You have the administration tripping over itself to throw money away, welfare cheats, crooked pols (the Louisiana kind), the Big News blowhards and your average bureaucratic pass-the-buck attitude.... why is ANYONE with half a brain shocked at the wastefull deluge of fraud that occurred anywhere near the event horizon of N'awlines?

The couldn't throw enough Money at the thing because the MSM couldn't be bothered to actually factcheck their sources. (We know N'awlines- if it sounds true, it probably is,,,besides why would anyone LIE to us???)

Now it's coming out about the "free" $2000 debit cards, and the profligately way the majority was spent.
I'd like to remind y'all that there wasn't really any restrictions on that money- just that you needed an address in La, preferably N'awlines.

The cities that took in the trash are going to regret that for a long time, and we, the taxpayers are going to go through it again, the very next time a welfare city is anywhere near the path of even a tropical storm..........just watch the kerfluffel.

Dems look to reward their key voters

The House is wanting to raise the minimum wage to $7.25/hr.
Because ya know, their base can't live on $10,712 per year, working those highly skilled jobs that the government schools have educated them for.

Look, the minimum wage is for people just starting out in the workforce. Cr@p- McDonalds is starting people with absolutly no experience at over $6/hr. WHO works for minimum wage anymore? Really? I know in Cali they have grorcery-baggers unions, and a check-out clerk at a supermarket is looking at their lifelong job. But here in the real America, people don't expect to be making the minimum wage when they're over say 23- even if they're still working a McJob- unless they're completly worthless.

RRRRRrrrrrrruuucy

I'm home!

Yeah, I'm working the night shift untill we (the company) move to Hondo. I just don't want to get up at 4AM to get to work at 5. I guess 6- 6:30PM untill I get 4-5 loads delivered isn't much better. But- hey I get payed! That counts alot; and at $35/load depending on how long it takes- I can make up to $20/hr. Not a bad tradeoff, besides this time of the day the traffic isn't bad at all.
