We get the leadership we deserve

And with the dumbing down of America, we have this-

Although it was actually a uniquely groomed dog roaming loose, three callers to 911 on Tuesday reported a baby lion, the city of Norfolk said today.
Two calls came after 10 a.m. on Granby Street near the zoo and on Llewellyn Avenue.
About 1:20 p.m., another 911 caller reported seeing a baby lion on Colley Avenue at 50th Street.
“I’d like to report a lion sighting,” one caller said.
“Say that again?” a dispatcher replied.
In the call near the zoo, a woman said, “There was a lion that ran across the street – a baby lion. It was about the size of a Labrador retriever.” Another caller said, “I don’t know if it got away from the zoo or what.”

Because the entire Liberal weight has been to turn our schools and entertainment into the prequel to Idiocracy.

Does anyone still have a Bank of America account?

If so, why?

BoA has always been on the side of anyone but us.
They got their bailout and still decided to charge for everything they could, you know double-dipping from the taxpayer.
They've tried screwing a company that make fiberglass gun stocks.
They were instrumental in getting 0bama re-elected with favorable loans to his campaign.

And now they're going after another gun company by freezing their account -because they don't like them selling gun parts over the internet.

The only reason I wish I still had an account there is so I could close it again.

Hey James

If you can't understand how someone can feel about Hillary!- stop down to the Daily Kos and shout GEORGE BUSH!

Carville’s take: “I mean, this is really an inhumane kind of discussion that these people were having. I have no idea what would lead them to do something like that. It’s sort of beyond me —

Or maybe you should get a twitter account and watch the hate from your people next time a Republican is in the news.

Ok braniacks

What's YOUR answer?

The FB comments were pretty much equal on two different numbers.

Who is a viable third party?

The republican House just voted almost overwhelmingly to re-elect cave-man Boehner as their leader with a whole TEN voting against.

Read the whole nauseating thing here, if you want.

But wait! Cave-man Boehner promises to stick to his principles this next time after caving in every other time he's had to do some hard bargening.



Why should I expect anything else this next time?
Or the time after that?

New Years Curves

Decker the halls.

I'd jump on that deal

Intel Ba-bup-ba-bum is looking at per channel subscription broadband cable beamed direct to your TeeWee.

The cable companies who supply you with 400 channels (only 15 that you watch) say you won't go for it.
I would. I was paying DirecTV about $65 a month for about 250 channels of which about
-50% were were in Spanish -which I don't speak very well
-30% were mostly spots channels which hardly ever got watched.
-10% were shopping and religion
-5% dedicated to Liberal talking points (CNN, MSN......)
-And of the 5 or 6 what is now the
Diners, Drive-ins and Dives channel
American Pawn-Pickers
The Storage Wars channel
House Hunters channel


Yeah- I'd willingly pay for just the BBCAmerica channel.

Time to make the Do-nuts

Points for this cultural reference.

THIS is the reaso we have such distaine for Congress

It's bad enough that these creatures of DeeCee took the graft....
But to be told that ethically they did nothing wrong, because Congress doesn't HAVE normal moral and Standards..............is --over the top of Hubris.

I *know* it wrong to take something from someone I'm going to have to regulate, or make a rule about in the very near future. Because that's how I have been taught.
You *don't* take things from people that might have a way to influence you.
You don't even want to look like you're bed partners with someone like that.  We were taught that in the `80's military.
Even if you're NOT doing something wrong, don't do it anyway because it LOOKS like something is not right.


But thoe *Elites* in both houses of Congress can do anything they want, and f&ck the people that pay our salary, because we got a good deal on our re-fi'ed home mortgage from the same people we're supposed to stop from making illegal loans.

I quit!

F&ck you Republican party.

I'm glad that this last election was the last that was  "ThemostIMPORTANTelectionofyouentireLIFE" and now that we lost because all we had was YOUR "most electable" candidate to not vote against.

And now you cave to a bunch of Democrats with a Socialist agenda to drive America bankrupt.
In return for $330 BILLION dollars in new taxes, we get the Spork and napkin wastage reduced to the Spork wastage in DeeCee.

DON'T count on my vote ever again!

Out with the old

In with the new

Going to be an interesting next 12 months- isn't it?

If I remember right

The next thing we'll be hearing about the Apparatchik Clinton will be that she is still in the hospital in worsening health.
...Until we find out she's dead
Because that how communists let it be known that someone expendable has  ceased to be useful to the cause.

Why, yes I do remember how that whole soviet change of command works.
Then we'll *have to* approve Thurston Kerry III for her position with out having her testify on her mistakes (if she can remember them) regarding Benghazi.

Thursday rule 5 on Sunday

Because I could say I was busy, but I wasn't.
And since I get more g00gle hits, I'm going to rename this curvy Thursdays.

To paraphrase Richard Dawson- Your curvy actress -IS?
Extra points for which sitcom she was in-



Edit to add:
#5- the one who has severely questionable taste in associates isn't the one I have tagged for today's actress. 

BTW- Merry Christmas from the ASPCA

Because it's always a good time to spend millions on a Christmas guilt trip.



And for only $18/mo, you too can keep some fat cat professional do-gooder living their lives in style- which is more than Sally Struthers wants to feed people.

I have to admit

He lost me at "the electric tape stops the electricity from escaping."

Then he goes into some bogus math to prove that somehow a DC (ok pulsating DC) can use inductance to double your internet speed.



How is this theory flawed- in layman's language.
Bonus points for what I consider the best answer/analogy.

UPDATE:
How about this?
Even if it did work as advertized (I don't know how it could...but...) The fastest speed you're going to get on your computer is what you pay the company for.
Unless you can find a way to fool the switchgear in the main office, you're not going to get much more than you pay for.

Now if I remember my communist history correctly

All these excuses for Hillary! being unavailable since Dec. 15th, will continue, and she'll even be making statements from her sickbed.

Except that we hear she hasn't been seen by any Dr.s or checked into anywhere for something that would put her down for ten days.

Like Drudge asked- Where's Hillary!?

If my memory serves- we'll be hearing even more far-fetched and unbelievable reasons we're not seeing her.
When the excuses get too wild, the MSM might even start to wonder openly.

I see that the First Vacationer is cutting his trip short

He's leaving Mooch  behind at some $100K a day so she can catch a flight back on AF 1.5.

And reading about the farce that's called "the budget cliff negotiations" I think I have the fitting official theme song for it.

...And a child shall lead them

Couldn't have put it better myself-



MERRY CHRISTMAS

Hey Sam Donaldson!

Merry Christmas!

That is the reason for the Holliday until you Liberals spent 30 years turning it into what it is today.

Now go f*ck yourself with a Kwanza bush...or whatever.

Not to be obsessing

But how many squares do you count?

Some say 24 others say 26

I'll show you what I got later after the jump.
When you're well lubricated :-)


UPDATE:
Ok, Mike the EE got it and pretty well explained it, so I'm not going to play with photoshop tonight.

A family Christmas

From the family Murphy:




So....
Does anyone know who that brunette babe is on the left?

A review of the apocalypse

Why is THAT house always so lucky?

An update on the S-10 front

Apparently, Chevy(or their Japanese supplier) included a low oil cut-off switch in the V-6.

All I did was add a quart of oil to my too low crankcase and it fired right up.
I have a slow leak from the front seal and I'm about 1500 miles late on the oil change....so.

Happy Apocalypse day!

Or not...

Dee Snider wishes you a Merry Christmas

Thursday Thickness already?

We'll call this thieving thickies, because I'm poaching from my bloglist-
These two from Odysseus-

Our starlet is a bit obscure who comes to us via Flares-

And not the least of these comes from our own Feral Irishman-

Now enjoy a good jiggle for Christmas.

The Reverend wishes you a Merry Christmas

May as well give this a shot-

Any mechanics want to weigh-in on why an `03 S-10 doesn't want to start?

It ran fine until I turned it off to check on something at the job, and just wouldn't start again.
It turns over, but seems to be a lack of spark---or the fuel pump finally went out,since I don't hear it anymore....



UPDATE-
Weds. 6:47PM

Thanks for all the suggestions.

About the only thing I had time for today was to check the schrader valve and I got a good squirt of fuel from it.
Didn't have time for anything else after working 11 hours and getting it moved to our company yard.
Now I can work on it over the week we have off  or get it towed to somewhere I can trust the mechanic.

One more thing about the Connecticut shooting

 Who remembers the MSM sometime late on Friday or Saturday that the wack-job tried to buy a gun the previous week, but was denied?

Ok, that background check worked like it was supposed to, right?

Aren't those background checks supposed to be destroyed after being ok'd or denied?
Or is it the responsibility of the gunshop to keep records?

So, if the .GOV has records of what you bought-- what's to stop them from showing up on your doorstep and saying "0bama and Holder have decided that your brand new AR or AK is now illegal and if you don't want to see the inside of a prison for fifteen years hand it over"?

Congress? I laugh
The SCOTUS? I'm remembering the 0bamaKare decision and now am ROTFLMAO.
