Yep, that's who I thought it was
A quick view of a lower Englanders life in the early century.
As a boy learning the ropes in Englands maritime trade- and the usual daily tasks (that would be called hardships today).
How long did it take 1till you knew who he was?

Excuse me, but didn't anyone pick up the obvious RACISM?
Because we have two rich Republicans and one black Democrat in a story that involves a privat RICH club called the Alfalfa Club...
Alfalfa???
It's a good thing - with the chocolate Jeezus -they didn't call it the Buckwheat club...
Not that I really need to know what two "Compassionate Conservatives" are doing at the "Bash Bush" White House, anyway. probably helping him stop any "real" conservative from getting that high up.

A quick driving PSA
for anyone who might be around bridges that have BIG ships or barge traffic.
I know you just can't 'stop', but if you can- look at the waterway you're crossing and see if anything down there looks like it might ...make your day interesting.
Because you should be able to tell if the ship looks maybe too tall for the bridge, or maybe too close to the supports for comfort.
You could pull over and whip out your cell-cam for an instant million hit You-tube video of something massive hitting something immovable.

Just for perspective
A man was walking down the street when he was accosted by a particularly dirty and shabby-looking homeless man who asked him for a couple of dollars for dinner. The man took out his wallet, extracted ten dollars and asked, "If I give you this money, will you buy some beer with it instead of dinner?" "No, I had to stop drinking years ago," the homeless man replied.
"Will you use it to go fishing instead of buying food?" the man asked. "No, I don't waste time fishing," the homeless man said. "I need to spend all my time trying to stay alive."
"Will you spend this on hunting stuff instead of food?" the man asked. "Are you NUTS!" replied the homeless man. "I haven't hunted in 20 years!"
"Well," said the man, "I'm not going to give you money. Instead, I'm going to take you home for a shower and a terrific dinner cooked by my wife."
The homeless man was astounded. "Won't your wife be furious with you for doing that? The man replied, "That's okay. It's important for her to see what a man looks like after he has given up drinking, fishing and hunting ."

I'd like to ask Ann Coulter a favor
And that would be to just StFU on Newt.
Ok, we get it- for whatever reason you sold out to the Romney train.
Maybe it was to get your fellow Yankee Chris Christi as the other Yankee on the N.E. Atlantic coast "Moderate" ticket- but it's not playing well in Texas, or for certain gays in Chi-town.
You know, don't you Ann- that Americans are a stubborn breed. Most independent Americans like to think for themselves and find hate-filled and demonstratively false accusations a reason to vote FOR the one being unfairly attacked---
Just like YOU and Drudge (who I wonder got paid what to) demonize Newt, and bury any reasonable answers except that he's Da Debbil!!!one!!!
Just to let you know Ann Coulter and Matt Drudge- I will NEVER (and you are re-enforcing my resolve) vote for Willard Romney.
UPDATE-
I forgot the obligatory Romney signature picture:

Have we had enought of the ever more intrusive Google spying?
You did know that huge Liberal machine was tracking you didn't you?
You do know that unless you turned off your web search history, that it has EVERY site you've been to since you first opened that GOOGLE search engine- right?
And now everyone is surprised that the huge LIBERAL entity known as Google has been tracking you and using what it knows about you for *koff* advertising enhancements.
-Until the 0bama administration wants to know your surfing habits...
But here's a handy article to try taking control of some of the information that's stored on there ever increasinly huge memory banks in your name.
Or you could just go cold turkey and delete (maybe) your history on Google and close accounts if you want to go all back-to-nature and have to hunt and gather your information all by yourself.

It looks like a different browser on the horizon
Blogger still can't play nice with the mothership.
I think I noticed it a little over a week ago when Google started tracking even more of your internet experience, and it's getting worse.
I was just over at Motzarts place, trying to view a comment I made, but got the Google white screen of nothingness.
I tried by signing out, but nada.
I copied the URL and opened Explorer and went right in.
So, is my FF 3.(whatever) at fault, or every FF user?

Bring it on Nancy, you lying Communist biatch
You, the leader of a party that gave a standing "O" to Barney Frank(D- mASS) for his boyfriend running a gay prostitution ring out of his house?
The leader of the party who last year had to censure Rangel (D- NY) over tax fraud?
The leader of the party who was directly responsible for the housing collapse?
YOU have something on Newt Gingrich that no one else has?
Bring it on you delusional skank!

How to make a cat run over a dog
First you need 1+ cats and a sleeping dog.
Or a dog that's eating and not paying attention, and most important- one of these.
You need to get the cat(s) wound up and running from one end of the kitchen into the living room and around the corner at full speed.
Then, when they're concentration on the dot, veer off and over the dog.

Tonight is the big SoTU speech
It should really be called the STFU speech.
Is anyone going to actually watch this nationally televised FREE campaign speech?
How many of you are going to be playing drinking games with it?

Even though we're more religious than Libs
Surprisingly we don't believe in electing a Messiah from Chicago, unlike the godless atheists on the Liberal side of things. How's your Unicorn Rider working out for you guys?
Some Republicans believe that we can get a Hero to decide -at this late date- to join the wannabees in the primaries. So that this unknown hero can be brash like Newt, business savvy like Mittens, conservative like Santorum and Constitutional like Paul.
It's not going to happen. So quit wishing for Bobby Jindal or Marco Rubio or Col. West to jump in.
What we have is what we have.
Lets learn to live with it.
Any one of them would be better than what we have right now, and the MSM will hate our nominee just as badly as the rest and dig for the dirt that they didn't on their Chicago Jeezus.
I don't know if I'll even bother voting in our primary because it'll be in either May or June.
Thanks to the politics of race driving the Federal judges in their redistricting clusterf*ck.
Because if it's in June- the candidate will have been elected and it'll be someone I can vote for or someone I'll not vote for in November.

Some people say tennis is boring
Because most of the time you're watching a yellow ball go back and forth.
But then again there are really good plays that make you want to see more.
But then you go back to watching the same boring thing.

Fritos corn chips
Did you know that cats like them?
I'm sitting here blogsurfing and using the dippers as my salsa delivery system and being stared at by the littlest dog.
Then I had to give her one.
And the real dogs wanted some too.
This is the littlest dog in "her" room-

I keep reading about how Newt can't win
Because all the 'smart' people living in either DeeCee or "Da City" say Newt is unelectable because he turns people off with his combative style.
That independents will run to president Everyman because newt is too scary...or something.
Right S.E. Cupp? Right Ann Coulter? Right Jennifer Ruben?
I'm not a Newt voter- yet. I still have another guy to look at and decide -if I have a choice once we have a primary here in Texas.
But, one thing for sure; I and a lot of other Americans love the fact that Newt is taking the fight back to the Liberals trying to force our election ...AGAIN.
Which reminded me of this speech that's now unfortunately wrong (in some places), but still has what's left of American spirit:
And here is the unedited original.
I have also heard Newt being compared favorably to Churchill. I don't know if I'd want to go that far, but I'd much rather have a fighter with baggage than a weather vane with the 'right' connections to the establishment.

"I say, Randolph- have you seen the Orange Juice Futures today?"
No Mortimer, but I am assured that we will make a killing once our DEA and 0bamas EPA kill the Brazilian imports.
Yes, Randolph-we know this administration will not allow any possible contaminates into the public consumption- like Bush did when we tried to corner the arsenic sequestration of drinking water.
Remember when he forced them to put arsenic back into drinking water?

You now Chris Christi,
The only people who think Newt is an embarrassment to the GOP is RINOs like yourself.
So go and keep attacking the one guy who's actually taking the fight to the people who are completely against any Republican- even an east coast 'moderate' like your buddy Mittens.
And, Chris- What you call "reserved" we in flyover country cal elitist...
While Christie has pointed to Romney’s difficulties in connecting with people before, he said Sunday it’s due to Romney being a “reserved guy.”

So, #OWS had a protest in DeeCee the other day
They were chanting the usual drivel, including "this is what a police state looks like." (@ about :19 in)
No you f*cking inbrede morons-
THIS is what a police state looks like.
And those are YOUR buddies that YOU want to act like if YOU could take over. (the ones shooting, not the protestes- they would be the Tea Partiers.)

What's the conflict between Google and Blogger now?
It seems that lately, no matter where I'm coming from- my bookmarks or a link to a specific posting in Blogger, I get half a second of that page, then Google sends me to a complete white screen and the bottom says DONE!

Remember back when "W" was creating jobs back in the early 2000's?
This was after the 9-11 attacks that shut down the airline industry and everything associated with them- including tourism.
The Left and their Lamestream Media co-conspirators sniggered about it being only McJobs and not 'really' worth counting as *real* jobs.
Remember?
But now, we have President Hopey-Changie in DISNEY LAND shutting down Mainstreet America so he could get a photo-op with Cinderellas castle as a backdrop.
He's touting tourism jobs.
Because those minimum wage jobs will be better for America than 20,000 oil patch jobs.
AND what I haven't heard anywhere....the TAX REVENUE from that oil as soon as it crosses the border.

I put up a post a little over a week ago asking when an occasional thing becomes a pattern.
And now that random thing we never heard of before Iran started rattling its scimitar in the Straights of Hormuz just happened again.
Isn't it amazing that all these Iranian sailors never needed our help until someones 'smart diplomacy' kicked in and we're getting exactly what weakness brings in the mid-east?
Is it a pattern yet, or am I going to be posting next week about us rescuing another Iranian?

So, Warren Buffet gave $49K to the Treasury to pay down the debt
Because he's challenging Republican Congressmen and he'll match it- I guess.
Does he know it would be useless to challenge the Democrats to do the same?
Well good for you Warren, If you *REALLY* want to help- maybe you should tell your company Berkshire Hathaway to pay that almost $1 Billion in back taxes it owes.
Of course now that you made the $49K donation to the deficit, I'm sure your fellow tax cheat Tim Gethner will call of his T-men and let it slide away just like his tax bill.

The same Federal agency who hasn't stopped a single terrorist yet
In the ten years they've been steadily increasing their intrusive behaviour on private citizens.
Just let another weapon get on board a flight in DFW.
But that's ok, we found it before granny could hijack the plane, and now she's under arrest.
...AFTER she boarded and they were in the taxi line.
This in addition to the same bungling bureaucracy that let Scott Atwater get on a plane in Tenn. and fly with two blocks of C-4 into Midland, TX.
But hey- it's cool, we found it before anything bad happened.
...So our record is still 0-0and0, right?

I'm really surprised that it's taken this long
I heard about Microsofts new 'Avoid the Ghetto' app about three or so months ago.
Only now are the usual suspects starting to make noise about it.
The as-of-yet unnamed product is being referred to as the “Avoid The Ghetto” app by those who are concerned with where it will guide users.
“I’m going to be up in arms about it if it happens,” said Dallas NAACP President Juanita Wallace.
Wallace spent her afternoon at a rally on Martin Luther King Jr. Blvd. and said she felt safe there, but fears the app may project otherwise.
“Can you imagine me not being able to go to MLK Blvd. because my GPS says that’s a dangerous crime area? I can’t even imagine that,” she said.
Of course YOU felt safe there Juanita-
You know guys, it's not a stereotype if it's true-MK?

- it was daylight
- there was probably a huge police presence
- they know you
- they wre in a happy mood
