It's going on display at the (extremely belated) memorial.
I don't have a problem with it being a union proud hardhat, but I do take exception to one sticker.
Can anyone identify it?
No, I don't mean the flag, because back then even the unions weren't so anti-American as they are today.

On Tee Wee right now
on the Science channel we had Stuck with Hackett.
This is a kind of Junkyard wars with a guy (some kind of proffezzorial guy with drealocks) who can make useful things out of junk.
Now, normally I put someone with dreadlocks into the hippie (and useless) catagory- but I don't have a problem admitting I'm wrong (unlike most pols)- so in his last show, making a laundry mat out of an old Delta-88- I have to admit that in the EOTWAWKIT- that might be a good barter idea. Assuming you have the fuel to run a car that's not going anywhere for living supplies.
Me, I think I'll build my stock of always in demand adult beverages. It takes less resources and there's always some kind of demand.
Hey look! Mel Gibson is at Bartertown on the other channel....I wonder if I have a theme tonight?

Sorry, can't help it
From Zip:
This pic-
"Look hunney- they put white dude on the cross!"
UPDATE- Sunday
I just noticed something on his lapel.
Is he finally proud to be an American for the first time in his adult life, too?

I saw this and forgot about it
Someone asked if -when a battleship lets off a broadside, does it move sideways.
The answer given was that, no- the ship is too heavy to move sideways.
I think this picture gives the lie to at least part of that idea. (the "part" being that the bow has much less mass than mid-ships)

Oh look, some anti-American drug addict got himself booted from a plane
The front-man from the anti-American greenie group couldn't be bothered to stop posing as a prison biatch on SW Airlines and was escorted off.
Because acting like some kind of mature human being is an insult to his 'musical' psyche...or something.

Time for driving tips with Kurt
Because there are a lot of you people moving here from the states that you turned into a socialist paradise- and can't find work- here are some Texas driving tips.
B- No matter how close you tail me, I can only go as fast as I can go.
C- If you're following me so close that I can't even see you- how are you going to intimidate me
into speeding up.
D- I take a lot longer to stop than you do- hence that huge following gap you like use to shoot the offramp in.
E- Most importantly. I'm getting paid by the hour- YOU are obviously in a hurry. When you cause my wreck, I'll make sure to have our talk with Officer Obie takes as long as possible.
I might have even had my video working so I can show him how you cut me off with no warning.
Really people, get a clue!
- We don't drive like you. We actually agree that using turn signals actually helps keep traffic moving a little better.
- Yes I'm in a big truck so that means I can only go as fast as I can go- so when you're behind me think of these things:

- When I have my turn signals on and you're sitting six inches off my bumper- and I'm looking at you through my west coast mirrors---I really 'CAN'T' tell that your twitching index finger sitting on top of the wheel means it's ok to move over.
- Do we even want to get into the whole 4-way stop on flashing (malfunctioning) stoplight?
Really people, get a clue!
More results of the law of unintended consequences
So we have Mubarik on trial in Egypt for doing what the Mullahs want to do under color of religion.
There is some kind of international agreement to bring 'to justice' anyone someone points a finger at and calls them a war criminal, or despot (except islamic terrorists)- no matter how long it takes.
...And some people are wondering why Kaddafi and Assad are going to die trying to hold on to what they have, instead of fading away to a lavish retirement in some friendly country?
Because you bleeding heart, do-gooders forced them to decide if they'll stand trial on (most likely) trumped-up charges and spend the rest of their lives in prison- OR go out fighting.

Thoughts on something I heard today
In one of the radio segments I got to listen to Rush on.
If you watch the NFL pre-season game you're racist for not watching the smartest negro in the world.
Actually, you'd be LESS racist because there are a lot more blacks playing football than in the political side of DeeCee.
And they're all millionaires.

That didn't take long, did it?
President crawfish and his tough talking spokesflacks in the Whitehouse couldn't even stand 24 hours of Republican criticism before he decided to go up against the NFL.
I hope someone (besides our enemies) takes something home from this...Rick? Barbra? Herman?

So- they say the new MLK statue looks arrogant?
What did they do, get some action pics of the post most partisan president evAr.
Hey, did you hear that the Chicago Jeezus decided to call the entire Congress to witness his mad TOTUS reading skillz on the same day as the Republican debate was scheduled MONTHS in advance.
Boehner's spokesman added in a statement that the White House ignored protocol by not first requesting a date from the speaker's office.
"It's unfortunate the White House ignored decades -- if not centuries -- of the protocol of working out a mutually agreeable date and time before making any public announcement," Boehner spokesman Brendan Buck said.
A senior House Democratic aide called Boehner's office "childish" for asking the president to reschedule.
"The childish behavior coming out of the speaker's office today is truly historic," the aide said. "It is unprecedented to reject the date that a president wants to address a joint session of the Congress."
The White House had insisted the timing was coincidental. Press Secretary Jay Carney told reporters there were many scheduling "considerations" and suggested the president has no interest in detracting from the debate viewership.
He said the administration would "welcome" a decision by debate hosts to "adjust the timing of their debate so that it didn't conflict."
But Carney downplayed the debate as one of many on the political calendar.
That's right Opie, just like there are waaayyyy to many warmed overlies speeches coming from that arrogant asshole who's your boss.
I wonder which the MSM will show in it's entirety if they're on at the same time??????

I hate to make you listen to this assclown
So you don't have to.
I just included the link for your convenience- to refresh your memory, if you want.
I had to listen to AlBores drivel more than once today, and something that jumped out at me, but no one else mentioned about his telling his Gorebots to get in their faces....yada-yada-yada...
Was that he never once mentioned showing proof, or scientific results.
It was always passion, beliefs or other emotions.

Calling the islamic rage-boy...
Because we're all about rioting when someone desecrates a koran.
And getting blood all over it is- I've heard desecration.
Unless the right people do it for the right reason, I guess....

The new Obama diet- and a new POLL!
As I was making a meal of Raman noodles yesterday (.15/per pack $3.60 for a 24ct. carton) it hit me that soon more and more of our meals will turn out to be the stuff we ate when we were just getting started in life.
Because that's all we'll be able to afford.
So here's the new Raman noodle cooking poll:
As far as the last weeks (and weeks) poll went, you didn't disappoint.
52%/ 33 votes Know the clowns in this government too well, and understand that we'll be looking at even higher taxes than we can afford right after the 2012 election.
And the rest of you still understand the way govt works and whatever you voted for, you know it's true, too.
Anyway, you can still vote- but as always it won't count anymore.

Now that the perfect storm
of Hype is over.
And the Legacy (for Accuweather at least) is going to be record inland flooding.
How long before the Weatherman-in-Chief declares all of the blue states on N.E. coast a disaster area eligible for all kinds of Federal goodies that he couldn't bother with for Kentucky, Texas and Jopline, MO?

I don't know which internet rule applies here
But I'm sure there is one.
Take a news aggregater add a story from a lesser know satire site and read the outraged comments where no-one mentions the site they're getting all wee-wee'd up about is a satire site.
You do the math, is the price outrageous, or in line with what you'd pay per bottle at the checkout?

Exotic delicacies
I'm sure they have this in other places, but I've only heard of it in the P.I.
Yummy!
Balut is called thousand year old eggs, but they probably only bury the semi-formed embryos for several weeks. Just enough time to get the funk right.

Who's a Whovian?
I just got done watching the newest Dr. Who and all the newest twists and turns in the plot.
No spoilers here- but they have all these American comedians talking inside Whovish stuff.
Why? We who have followed the Who-stry know whats going down there.
The only thing they haven't mentioned is the first time Amie went up in the TARDIS.
And what the Dr. saw...

Now President Boy Genius is taking over the National Hurricane Command Center.
Finally we're going to see him putting his powers of controlling nature to work!
Remember? The earth started to heal, and the seas stopped rising when the Anointed One got elected.
"This is going to be a tough slog getting through this thing," Obama said during a video teleconference including senior federal officials and local government agencies in the east coast path of Irene.
"It's going to be a long 72 hours. Obviously a lot of families are going to be affected ... the biggest concern I'm having right now has to do with flooding and power," Obama said during the videoconference.
"(It) sounds like that's going to be an enormous strain on a lot of states" that could last days, or even longer in some cases, he said.
Thank you Dr. Obvious- all those disaster experts needed to know that bit of information. Did you get your pep talk from Ray Nagin? He's been free with advice lately.

My obligatory hurricane Irene update
The skies are partly cloudy, it's 105 on the porch and not any rain in the forecast.
Of course I'm about 300 miles on the west side of the Mississippi, but I thought you needed to know what Irene is doing here in S. Texas.

I admit it- I'm evil
I laughed at these preventable tragedies
And I don't feel badly about it because I probably did some of the same things (or would have) when I was a young dumbass.
And I don't feel badly about it because I probably did some of the same things (or would have) when I was a young dumbass.
So, I'm looking at the headlines on Drudge today
They're about the same as yesterday (and the day before...) with the stories of the Libs in the N.E. freaking out about what's probably going to be a strong tropical storm when it finally reaches them.
U.S. military ready to help in hurricane response
People are freaking out
HYSTERIA- Home Depot, Walmart get boost
BLOOMBERG PULLS TRIGGER: ORDERS 370,000 TO FLEE
...SHUTS SUBWAYS, BUSES AND TRAINS
Ok, so we have an (almost- sort of) unprecedented storm heading their way. It's got a good chance of knocking out power and some water damage from tides and waves.
And peole are freaking out. The MSM is overhyping this TS for ratings, Bloomberg is both ordering evacuations AND shutting down the mass transit so people CAN'T leave.
Mass. has already declared a state of emergency and people have stripped stores like locust in a wheat field.
How are any of those east coast Libs going to act when something REALLY bad comes down? They don't have days worth of food and water.
They have no self reliance (except for a few notable exceptions).
They have no sense of community (in a good way) and will be declaring themselves Katrina 2.0 probably Sunday or Monday when the looting starts.
I'm glad I made the descision to live where I did.
It's a kind of long drive into the big city, but here we have the community well, it's safe from tornadoes (hills), hurricanes (180 mi. from the coast), floods (haven't been rivers here for millennia). Maybe we have a minor earthquake, but it won't realy do much but shake the trees.
The only real threat we have is fire- it's tinder dry here and we have lots of trees and brush.
We try to keep at least a week of living supplies on hand, and know where to get water if we really need it.
So everyone who knows about living through a minor emergency- kick back, grab the beer and chips and we can watch the mass hysteria and comparisons to Pompeii, N'Awlines, the London fire and the rest of the overblown hyperbole from the East coast.

Now that gadaffi's gone
Can I ask a question?
It may be completely self explanatory to some, but I'm curious.
Why is it good, and why is it that Kaddafi needed to go?
I mean, yes he was a dictator that at one time was into terrorism (before being a 'militant' was cool).
BUT- after Reagan let him know in no uncertain terms that the US and the rest of the world was tired of his shit- he really did calm down. He actually in his own way seemed to try to stop antagonizing everyone just because he could.
Yeah, he got that Lockerbee terrorist back home, but that was more instinct (like a dog licking his b@lls) than outright transgression. Besides the Liberals in the place that used to be Great Britain actually pushed him on Libya.
So again- aside from oil-for-France and the theme of "all the cool kids are doing it"- why did we get involved in someone who hasn't really been a problem to us- the US in twenty years?

By his enemies you will know him
I heard this today on the radio, and thought about that title.
How can having trial lawyers making a huge stink about how they hate your ideas be a bad thing?
I mean trial lawyers are the lowest scum in the legal world, aren't they?
Saying anything to get a favorable verdict- no matter how implausible it is- like channeling dead children to sway a jury into millions of legal fees.
Yes, lets get that attack apparatus set up.
I'm sure the IBEW and SEIU will be glad to help fellow bottom feeders.

Top Shot is on right now
I just can't really get into it this time.
Maybe it's the two TSA guys that I just can't get behind because I just can't see someone who doesn't give a shit about enabling the shredding of our Constitution by blue-shirted Nazis.
I know if I were in that house, I'd probably be sleeping outside because of the crap I'd be shoveling to those two jackbooted thugs.

did anyone realize they were missing the daily dose of KMA?
as opposed to the WTF coming out of the White House and the MSM.
Well, you're going to be getting an earfull of president Kickazz and how he personally save the Libyan peons from Gadaffi.
Because something needs to be done to take your mind off of the non-existent jobs bill coming out in two weeks.
NOTE- I'm not saying DeeCee did anything to push the timetable up, but sometimes even a blind pig finds an acorn.
