I always wonder

When I see some @sshole doing a good 20 miles over the rest of traffic, and he sees the huge line of cars in front of him...why does he always wait until the last 10 feet to hit his brakes? Does he think he's so important that traffic will recognize him and magically part to let him through?

AND...if you're the speed vigilante in the fast lane pacing the guy who's on the phone in the next lane...go f*ck yourself. Go slow in the SLOW lane, it's the one on the right. The one that everyone is working their way to, so we can all get around your clueless @ss and go home.





COMPLETELY DIFFERENT SUBJECT,,,,,,,,,,
Someone was searching for 'trainwreck on blogspot' from Kuala Lumpur????
Why?

I made a post a while back

About revamping the voting system.
This video over at weerdbeard reinforces my arguments. I'd bet that more voters on the Republican side would be able to answer more question right,,,especially the ones about who's in charge (looking up and humming).


Was that a polling place they were interviewing at? Did they let the girl with the OBAMA tee vote like that?

This could be interesting

Our dearest new leader Barry the benevolent is extending an olive branch to Hillary.
So now, if it goes through, we'll be able to watch a dirty-trick Chicagoland politician play chess with a dirty-trick Clintonian Rasputin. I wonder who'll win?

Or, could it be that he only mentioned the job in passing, and Hils leaked it to the loyal MSM to use as leverage?
After the infamous question #60...got anything they can use against you? Please provide documentation.
Could she be so stupid to provide all that in black and white to El Cappo de Bar-o, and he decides..."oops, sorry Hil- too much dirty laundry here, we'll pass...and thanks for all the info. It'll come in handy...maybe."

If the Clinton family gets the nod (remember with one we get both), who are the Clintonistas (37 out of 41 picks for Mr. Change-B-Me) going to side with in the fight for overt or covert power?

This should be as fun as watching the faithful realize that Mr. Everything-2-everyone is nothing but an Ignis fatuus.

Another political cover-up exposed

This time it's been exposed by the Beeb, and literally changed the world into what we now know as reality.
The brance involvedthis time was the British Navy engaging in ,,, not really a cover-up, but more of a misrepresentation of fact.
Which enabled them to become the dominant maritime force of their times.
AND enabled them to challenge Spain and France to the new world, which resulted in their colonies in New England.
Which in turn latter became an independent America who returned the favor to save the world numerous times from the forces of evil.


Oh, that little factlet?
Henry VIII thought his Mary Rose was flooded by a squall and sunk about a mile off shore at the Solent. It was later reported that the French actually HIT something back then...and caused the flooding that caused the capsizing.

And the last eight years

were filled with love, co-operation and unicorn farts towards President Bush.
Now that we have a President Elect that believes in a Socialist paradise who just happens to be black...everything is a hate crime.

But that's ok, Barry will just change the haters minds with a twitch of his nose.

Words to live by...

Remember them in these upcoming times.

Meanwhile, closer to home- I finally got the last spark plug changed out on the S-10.
Had to take the left front tire off and almost had to make a *genuine GM* tool to get it from behind the steering column.

At the Hondo Wally-World

They're selling fuel for $1.58, which is the lest expensive I've seen in about two years.
Too bad I won't be buying it because they like to slip in alcohol with their gas and I don't want to ruin my fuel system. I also want to get as many MPG as I can and don't want to cut it by a third because of some political paybacks.
They now have a tree at the main entrance to go along with the Christmas carols they've been pumping out for the last two weeks.
In addition to changing the garden center into Christmasland almost two months ago.

What's taking him so long?

Sorry boss, started running into some rally crappy rock.



But apparently the owner would rather pay a big OSHA fine and maybe workers comp because I was taken off and someone else is digging an 8' deep straight trench.
With no ladders or escape routs.

Special needs children

I'm listening to the TV news in the background.
They're talking about the problems parents of autistic children have in getting medical treatment for their problems.
See, Dr.s and hospitals don't want to even touch a kid with autism (or probably any other *lucrative* disease just for self preservation).

See, they know health care is expensive enough without taking on additional, unnecessary expenses.



Know what I mean?


So after we cover the 'right' to health insurance,,,,,when will I be eligable for 'the right' to universal homeowners insurance?

He's NOT a freeking GUY

'He" is a woman who had a sex change operation.
..AND kept HER reproductive organs that God gave her.
So it's not some kind of 'miracle' that she's pregnant again.

She says she's enjoying the feeling of pregnancy.

So why did she decide she was a guy if she wanted to be a mom?
Sounds like someone wanted to have it both ways (ehem...take that as you will).

So what's with Baba Wawa? I thought she moved to 'serious' journalism after she got tired of no one taking her seriously as a gossip reporter.

Watch this

The last thirty seconds left me speachless.

Thank you who went through this for us.

Happy Veterans Day

Yahoo might want to take a look at Google.


But then, I guess they can finally be proud of America after the election...

Well, waddia know...

My re-elected Dem. Rep is a doper, too.
He voted to remove all penalties on adults caught with weed.

I guess that's why south San keeps re-electing him- since he votes the Dem line 96% of the time.
Go vato!




Ohhh,,,and since our racial preferance candidate is on the the 'free the weed' express;
and he's mentioned making dope legal- how soon before ashtrays will be banned in the White House to be replaced by bongs? Will he invite Willie Nelson down off the roof to burn one in the Oval Office?

Happy Birthday Marines!

Bravo Zulu!

Well...

I if a fighter can fly on just it's left wing, so can America for four years,,, I guess.


Israeli Pilot Land Saftly With One Wing - Watch the best video clips here


Top that China.

Ohh,,,,Gawd

Ok, so why did it take eight years for them to decide that "we are all fuzzybunnykitten luvrz"?
I sure don't remember those sentiments from the last eight years that I've been looking at the Leftist moonbats.

But after seeing those luvy-dovy lets all get along ideals,,,OK.
I'll give your guy as much slack as you gave Bush. Sounds fair, and you're all into "equality" and the fairness doctrine,,,,right?


So why should you have a problem with me acting almost as nasty better than you did for Bush's last two terms?

...AND I notice that unlike your predictions, he'll allow a peaceful change of power,,,including all the "O's" left on the keyboards.


UPDATE:
I notice that this "unity" site has a lot less contributors than those anti-Bush, anti-Iraq NOT IN MY NAME sites had in the same amount of time.
I guess these are the silent wing of the Dems who really want to get along and not the strident 'kill all who aren't in lockstep' wing of the Liberal ideology.


UPDATED:
I'm kinda surprized that no-one has mentioned my girlfriend in the top pic...Zelda.
And Mr. oralface,,,,you *do* know what your sign says in Mexican, right?

On the TV right now

is a Grahm Norton retrospective of his shows featuring the cast of Dr. Who.
Including the Tardis..which moves the victim spatially ..in real time.
It's supposed to, I guess- highlight the new season...except the 'NEW' series opening Dr. Who was the Titanic rerun from last year.

It's a good thing the Brits have a sense of humor, or they'd get a reputation for taking over countries, imposing their will on the natives and starting colonies,,,or something.

Pshycobabble?

No, actually it's pshycobilly


I found this while looking for a suitable background for a demo video I'm thinking about making for that Colt Navy display case I made. I'm thinking about seeing how it does on e-bay.
I can't use 'Gun Love" because It's taken....


And yes, that's my range...

Caturday condundrums

El Capitain is in a bit of a fix with a room mates cat allergies and looking at an entire lifestyle change for him and his two (ok, they're cute) cats.


A partial list of changes includes a bi-annual shave, and weekly baths.


So in that vein, I offer advice for his weekly ordeal:

Some people say cats never have to be bathed. They say cats lick themselves clean. They say cats have a special enzyme of some sort in their system that works like new, improved Wisk--dislodging the dirt where it hides and whisking it away.

I've spent most of my life believing this folklore. Like most blind believers, I've been able to discount all the facts to the contrary, the kitty odors that lurk in the corners of the garage and dirt smudges that cling to the throw rug by the fireplace.

The time comes, however, when a man must face reality: when he must look squarely in the face of massive public sentiment to the contrary and announce: "This cat smells like a port-a-potty in July."

When that day arrives at your house, as it has in mine, I have some advice you might consider as you place your feline friend under your arm and head for the bathtub:

--Know that although the cat has the advantage of quickness and lack of concern for human life, you have the advantage of strength. Capitalize on that advantage by selecting the battlefield. Don't try to bathe him in an open area where he can force you to chase him. Pick a very small bathroom. If your bathroom is more than four feet square, I recommend that you get in the tub with the cat and close the sliding-glass doors as if you were about to take a shower. (A simple shower curtain will not do. A berserk cat can shred a three-ply rubber shower curtain quicker than a politician can shift positions!)

--Know that a cat has claws and will not hesitate to remove all skin from your body. Your advantage here is that you are smart and know how to dress to protect yourself. I recommend canvas overalls tucked into high-top construction boots, a pair of steel-mesh gloves, an army helmet, a hockey face mask, and a long-sleeved flak jacket.

--Prepare everything in advance. There is no time to go out for a towel when you have a cat digging a hole in your flak jacket. Draw the water. Make sure the bottle of kitty shampoo is inside the glass enclosure. Make sure the towel can be reached, even if you are lying on your back in the water.

--Use the element of surprise. Pick up your cat nonchalantly, as if to simply carry him to his supper dish. (Cats will not usually notice your strange attire. They have little or no interest in fashion as a rule. If he does notice your garb, calmly explain that you are taking part in a product testing experiment for J.C. Penny.)

--Once you are inside the bathroom, speed is essential to survival. In a single liquid motion, shut the bathroom door, step into the tub enclosure, slide the glass door shut, dip the cat in the water and squirt him with shampoo. You have begun on the wildest 45 seconds of your life.

--Cats have no handles. Add the fact that he now has soapy fur, and the problem is radically compounded. Do not expect to hold on to him for more than two or three seconds at a time. When you have him, however, you must remember to give him another squirt of shampoo and rub like crazy. He'll then spring free and fall back into the water, thereby rinsing himself off. (The national record for cats is three latherings, so don't expect too much.)

--Next, the cat must be dried. Novice cat bathers assume this part will be the most difficult, for humans generally are worn out by this time. Drying is simple compared to what you have just been through. That's because by now the cat is semi-permanently affixed to your right leg. You simply pop the drain plug with your foot, reach for your towel and wait. (Occasionally, however, the cat will end up clinging to the top of your army helmet. If this happens, the best thing you can do is to shake him loose and to encourage him toward your leg.) After all the water is drained from the tub, it is a simple matter to just reach down and dry the cat.

--In a few days the cat will relax enough to be removed from your leg. He will usually have nothing to say for about three weeks and will spend a lot of time sitting with his back to you. He might even become psychoceramic and develop the fixed stare of a plaster figurine.

--You will be tempted to assume he is angry. This isn't usually the case. As a rule he is simply plotting ways to get through your defenses and injure you for life the next time you decide to give him a bath.

--But at least now he smells a lot better.

Good luck, ol' washroom warrior!

All is not lost, yet

I was looking at our local paper, and saw that Medina County voted Republican in all contested races. That's good to know, considering is on the tan side. Not as brown as in the valley, but definitely a lot darker than even San ANtonio.

Since it won't stay up longer than next week, here are some excerpts.
Amid a nationwide blue wave, Medina County remained a solid island of red during the Nov. 4 general elections.
County voters selected the Republican candidate in every contested race on the local ballot, even though their choices for President and U.S. Representative did not succeed in their quests for election.
In the hotly-contested local races, all Republicans came up winners.
Kim Havel easily outpolled Hunter Schuehle in the race to succeed Ralph Bernsen as Medina County Attorney. Havel outlasted Schuehle, a former county attorney for 12 years, by receiving nearly 65% of the vote.
Randy Brown, appointed as Sheriff when Gilbert Rodriguez resigned two years ago, won with an even more commanding 74% of the vote in defeating challenger, Edward Fuentes.
In a three-county race for 38th District Judge, Camile Glasscock DuBose carried 61% of the votes in defeating Tom Cate. She was victorious in all three counties, Medina, Uvalde and Real, which comprise the 38th District. Judge Mickey Pennington is retiring after 24 years on the bench.

~Snip~
On the national scene, Medina County voters sided with John McCain by a more than 2-to-1 margin over Barack Obama, helping him to claim Texas’ 34 electoral votes. Obama, however, with wins in key battleground states of Pennsylvania, Ohio, Virginia and Florida, won the race for president.
John Cornyn was reelected to a second term as United States Senator, defeating challenger Rick Noriega by nearly 2-to-1 in Medina County and with a 61% margin statewide.
Lyle Larson drew the support of Medina County voters in his bid to unseat incumbent Rep. Ciro Rodriguez in the race for U.S. Representative, District 23. But district-wide, Rodriguez was the winner, with 45% of the vote to Larson’s 40%. Libertarian candidate Lani Connally pulled a strong 15% of the vote, which was a fairly consistent figure for Libertarian congressional candidates across the state.

...Cool, now I'm going to go out and work on a wood shop that doesn't need reams of paperwork (and fees) handed to an intrusive.gov (so far) because I live in a freedom loving county.

This election proves what I've believed

I firmly believe that instead of making it easier to vote than getting a sub-prime mortgage, it needs to be a little more difficult.

How about some of these changes?

• You have to actually *prove* who you are by showing an official ID- not a water bill. Hey, if Obamas Black Panthers can check your ID in Philly, why not the .gov?
• Mail-in ballots from APO and FPO will get first priority in handling and a longer lead time, because they're actually putting it on the line for the entire voting thing to happen.
• How about a 'clue' test? where you actually have to have some knowledge of both candidates planks? No, I'm not talking about the Jim Crow laws or Literacy tests. Just something that anyone who has the political insite higher than a door knob can pass: "Which party controls the House/Senate?"---"Name one plank in each candidates platform"---"Who has the tie breaking vote in the Senate?"
• Purge the rolls yearly and maybe send out a return card asking if the voter wants to be carried over- if not, scratch the name. If you can't check a box and drop a card in the mail, you don't give enough of a chit to vote anyway.
• Military, property owners and small business entrepreneurs should have two votes so as to cancel out the shiftless money suckers on the dole.

BUT,,, we all know it will never happen because the Dems couldn't get clueless college students, crack whores and dead people to the polls and would never get elected.


AND- Make it a closed primary that candidates can't drop out from, that way the Liberal half of the country can't force a RINO on the rest of us... like this ast time.

This would be so kewl

If someone would make a blog so we could laugh at the Obamabots as they realize that Himself either wont or can't do what he promised.

I mean, all those that think we'll be solving Global warming by Unicorn farts and feeding 'the poor' with manna from heaven. I don't know what manna tastes like, but I can almost guarantee you that the kool-aid drinkers won't like it.

Think of the absolute crushing 'horror' when they realize that the world still hates us and moslems still want to kill Americans.

What do you think their reaction will be to the Carter era gas lines?


I'd even do it if I were near a computer during the day...and I could actually compose coherently.

Rahm Emanuel, huh? So much for Bi-partisanship,,,but then real Conservatives saw that comming. Too bad the RNC is going to be blindsided- AGAIN.

Sigh....

John, John, John...
You really need to get off the Bullchit Express.
Do you *really* believe it was Sarah Palin who wrecked your last chance to cross off 'Be President' from you bucket list?

You don't think it might have something to do with

• The McCain/Kennedy Amnesty bill?
• The McCain/Feingold First Amendment hatchet job?
• The Durbin/McCain Dream Act
• The McCain/Lieberman Carbon tax Act?
• Voting against Both of W's tax cuts?
• Voting against drilling in ANWAR?
• Stabbing your own party in the back more often than supporting it?
• The Gang of 14?

And that's just off the top of my head.

Now McCains' election team is dumping all over Palin for her supposed faults. Anonymously, of course...
They're talking about McCains co-contender as badly or worse than McCain talked about Obama.
And McCain isn't reeling them in-OR apologising like he did to Obama.
(But, then Sarah is only a Governor- not a member of the most elate and exclusive club in America)

John McCain, he'd rather make nice with a fellow Senator than protect a running-mate.
Classy John, and to let you know-- - the ONLY reason you did so well was because of her.


Now, that being said- even though I don't want to hear another election slogan for another 42 months...
SARAH PALIN in '12

Congratulations America

You got what you deserved.

Well, I guess the fix is in

I was *not* going to even try thinking about the results tonight, but the Yahoo election thing piqued my curiosity.

I guess I'm not nuanced enough to understand how they're giving Obama the win with 2% (yes TWO percent)of votes in but are holding off on McCain's win with 65% in.

On some of the rollover states, McCain is in the lead by vote count, but Mr. Redistribution is tagged the winner.

I guess we need to let the dead and fraudulent votes catch up to the results before we question their honesty.







So! How long is this election going to carry over in the courts? Anyone want to hazard a guess?
Winner gets a 2GiG micro memory card.

Mice!

I Got woke up (waken?)by a mouse trying to chew it's way into the master bath.
We've had mice before and some, I think have died in the attempt (given the sudden short in an outside wall wire).

I wouldn't really mind so much if they could just use the same access the other mice used. Then I wouldn't habe motr holes in my walls after the mouse traps do their work.

Getting on to something more important

...is the news that the flying car may be available in a Ferrari model soon.

It's flying ability is based on the Harrier vectored thrust idea.

It can fly at 150mph and up to 5,000feet.
Right now, they're looking at a price of about $1 million per.



Sounds cool, huh?
Well just think that all those clueless morons you were stuck in traffic with tonite will want one too.

Conversations at work

1- "R" is starting to stab "J" in the back, too.

2- Yeah, it's like a dog licking his d*ck- he can't help it.

1- I know...

2- He'd better remember that even though "J" f*cked-up so bad he got demoted, he's still "M" 's nephew and will be back as a foreman soon, so no matter how bad "J" or "K" (his BFF) f*ck up they've got a job as long as they want.

1- Yeah, I wish I had insurance like that.

Just wondering...

Who came up with the Red state Blue state thing?
I'm too lazy to search for it, but I'd bet it was a bunch of journalists who decided to call Dems the Blue states because calling them the Red states would come too close to the truth.

Who out there saw the way Obama operatives used Government records to smear (not) Joe the Plumber- and thinks it won't happen to them if Obama gets elected?
Oh, yeah- the ones that think they're somehow immune from the Party Sturmabteilung because they pulled a lever for Himself.

If you heard this on the radio

You'd at first think it was a 'hard hitting' media piece on our Obamessiah.



Now, wouldn't you?
