I voted yesterday

Forgot to tell y'all. I was a little busy in the afternoon- with my manufaturing and bustling E-bay site and all...

We have a choice about ballots here in Texas- Paper or electrons.
I chose paper, since it's alot harder to hack than some low-bid software.
I also had more than one Ind. marked along with the majority of Rep.

I'm just wondering with all these cries of "voter fraud"- WHY would anyone decide to go the un-traceable computer route? We all know that most hackers fall into the Liberal realm, so why would I think my vote would go where I want it to-instead of the one-in-(???)five that get sent to the Dem?

As long as I'm thinking of Dems and elections and voter fraud (WHY does that just seem natural?), why is it that all the problems seem to pop-up in Democrat controlled districts? Fla. in 2000, Ohio in '04- the pre-planned outrage in Col. about the slightest preceived impropriety.

Why don't they take a lesson from Chicago? They've been having dead people voting there forever with no problem at all...OH, wait- they sent the mentally challenged Daley down there to co-ordinate the 2000 Florida fraud, didn't they? Well, ya can't win em all.

Or, fool enough to start winning many.

Iraq = Viet Nam, again?

Lets look at this story coming from, surprisingly- Al Reuters.

No, not the Iraq is like Tet. Although you could make that analogy in that we kicked their @sses almost back to China, and the MSM had everyone believing it was a win for the Commies. Same thing in Iraq, we're winning, they're getting desperate and the MSM (and their fellow Communists up in D.C.) are insisting that we cut and run.


Getting back to the story:
LONDON (Reuters) -
Iraq is vital to the world's future and the West cannot cut and run despite growing anxiety over the relentless bloodshed there, Deputy Prime Minister Barham Salih said on Monday.

Salih, in London for talks with British Prime Minister
Tony Blair and other ministers, voiced concern at the growing pressure on the British and U.S. governments to change direction in Iraq given the heavy death toll among coalition forces and Iraqis.

He stressed that Iraqi forces were gradually taking over responsibility for security but said Iraq needed the "enduring support" of the international community to combat what he called "a difficult onslaught by terrorists."

Asked about a pledge by Australia's opposition to pull the country's troops out of Iraq if it wins the next election, Salih said: "I do believe there is no option for the international community to cut and run."

"The fate of Iraq is vital to the future of the Middle East and the world order," he told reporters.

U.S. military deaths in Iraq in October have reached at least 85, making it the deadliest month for Americans this year and raising pressure on
President George W. Bush before Congressional elections next month in which Republicans could lose majorities in both houses.

Yes, we- the good guys- are winning over there. We don't hear alot about it because the Libs want us to pull out now, so they can declair Iraq a defeat for Bush Co. America.

If we pull out now it will do two things that I can see:
  1. Leave Iraq to the tender mercies of Michal Moors 'Minute Men' to behead and torture to death ANYONE that didn't actively help them. Ala Viet Nam, Cambodia, Laos, and the rest of the blood soaked S.E. Asia that we left hanging.
  2. We'll lose any and all credibility we ever had in the Mid-East. We have a history of cutting and running when the cost got too high- from Reagan all the way up to Clinton. They see us as a paper tiger that deserves to be conquered- and we do if we just run away...again.
I don't know what the Iraq answer is, but leaving the Iraqis hanging isn't one of them. I'd also like to remind you that we were in the WW II Axis countries for over 30 years working on their transition to becoming peaceful democracies. ( We may have overdone it in Germany,,,but).

John Hawkins on the fence

Someone needs to walk up to the bubble those guys are in, knock on it a few times, wait for someone to come to the door, and then yell, "Have a public signing ceremony, talk about how much you can't wait to build that wall, and start acting like you're the President of the United States, not the President of Mexico!"

In his post on politics VS the border fence.

I wonder if she does the tires?

Here we have an interesting auction on E-bay.

She calls it a "true no touch car wash". I wonder if she's talking about "don't touch what I'm using" -no touch.

It is SFW and she's got 12521 views and bids for $29.01

Gawd I hate trojans

Not the Greeks, or the latex sleeve either.

Had something pop up the other night. It looked like one of those greyish Microsoft warning boxes.
I deleted it, and it kept popping back up, so I go to the source site...something like "downloadourprotectionnow.scam" and defenatly know I don't want to click on it.

I turn off rhe computer for the night and the next day about an hour into online stuff- the connection is lost. Ok- call Wildblue tech support to ask what's wrong in Larado now.
Nothing- and we went through the whole troubleshooting list- including re-aquiring the IP three times until she suggested my network card was bad because the IBM laptop got right through...

Great, now the "big" computer is down for the count- with all the important stuff on it.

THEN- I remembered the "warning", look at the desktop,,, and there is a brand spanking new icon saying 'click me!!" with absolutly NO information except like- install.exe.
Into the bin it goes, and reboot the hard-drive to factory settings.

POOF- wallah--I have internet again! Now I have to put everything back.

I finally got the 18 yr-olds computer online, too. It's an ME with 15G and lots of teen cr@p on it.
I forgot the all the security settings I had in the router, so couldn't get it to work until I got into the router settings here. I finally got it working, downloaded AVG, spybot, adaware -and ran updates and searches on all of them.
Cool, we're cooking with gas, now...untill I tried downloading ME upgrades from Microsoft.
I've tried three times with the "Scanning for available upgrades" ding-"upgrades available"...and it won't initialize, just sits there like a federal beureaucrate.

ME is out of date anyway, there will be no updates, so one computer will be able to be free of IE completly, anyway.


OK, I'm trying to look at the bright side.

A GOOGLE server error

That's what I got when opening my blog.

Am I like, being a bit pre-paranoid?

You know, seeing what's fixing to happen before it starts? Being one of the first to start "connecting the dots" before all the dots are out there? Knowing how Liberals operate in their love of expression and "diversity of opinion"? Seeing how they're purging You-Tube of "objectionable content", I think I'm the mute that saw the Emporers new cloths before the kid actually shouted it out.

I did a feral cat post

...And the exact opposit would probably be this dogblogging pic...

Guess what Karen's doing?

As I'm waiting for pictures to upload

...And waiting

...And waiting

Did I mention that they're gun pics?

...And waiting.

I'm wondering if our masters at GOOGLE are starting to enforce their Liberal Anti-gun adjenda on Blogger? I didn't have any problem with the first pic. Maybe it took a while for their filters to recognize the shape of a scary pistol and ammunition? It had a KNIFE, too, which makes it doubley scary, and shouldn't be shown to unsuspecting people lest it incite them to acts of "GUN VIOLENCE"!

(UPDATE)
The error page says they're having a problem at the site, we'll see if this gets published.

(UPDATE to the UPDATE)
They can publish this, but not the previous or post,,,post?
HMMMmmmmm............

OH, did I mention that I didn't even get a warning about my Adjinidad/Hitler video at NoJew You-Tube? They just disappeared it.
"Poof- it's gone" and never was here.

Except that they made my icon the Adjinidad center pic.

The latest picture meme

I call this SUB- Urban survival


It includes my most accurate handgun the .50 Cal Trapper which would hit the black at 50 yards with enough Black powder.

An unknown make of Blackberry wine.
And an authentic turn of the century survivlalist tool.


I can't get the .380 pic to load.

Bye Freddy


Who were You thinking of?

His major break...


...and his versatility

Long day

Up at 3:30 AM this morning because of personnel problems and scheduleing conflicts.
Worked till 2:30PM (I could legally have worked till 6:30 'cause it's local driving) but had a Dr. appt. for the shoulder, still waiting on something to happen on that front.

We tried to install a USB WiFi antenna to the 18 yr-old's E-machine,,, it just wouldn't take, so I ended up at Best Buy for 50' of Cat6 cable. It should work out better anyway- just unplug it from the router when necessary.

A .22 would work too

In case you hadn't heard, Monday is "National Feral Cat Day."

Just so you can appreciate unbridled breeding of a predator species.

And- since it's like a Greenie thing, it's naturally not the entire truth...

National Feral Cat Day on Monday marks the beginning of what Molina and other feral cat advocates hope will be a year filled with public education and aggressive animal sterilization.

Every city and town in Flagler County proclaimed the national day this year. The proclamations are meant to encourage communities to learn about trapping, sterilizing and then releasing feral cats to control populations.

~snip~

Molina hopes to raise money to open a permanent spaying and neutering clinic in Flagler County and to hold mobile clinics throughout the area.

She said there are at least 1,000 stray and feral cats in Flagler County, and in such a fastest-growing county the colonies may also grow.

And where there's a feral colony, dumped strays may follow.

The difference between a feral cat and a stray is that a feral cat hasn't had the human socialization of a pet. Strays may let you walk up to them and pet them, Molina said, but ferals never will.
Like I said.... a .22 is alot faster and cheaper.
But lets go on...

While Wilson would support a trapping and neutering policy for population control, leaving cats outdoors to hunt concerns her. She said she preferred releasing cats into an enclosed setting, and she knew a woman who used an enclosed atrium-like facility for four feral cats.

Molina said hunting is often brought up by bird advocates, but she feels diminishing bird populations are a result of development, not territorial cats that leave a scent.
Ummmmmm, lady- cat's don't 'scent' where they hunt.

She said the society gets flack for not trapping feral cats fast enough and the biggest problem with ferals is that they're in places where they're not wanted, like next to stores and restaurants. She said by state law, colony caretakers are required to recapture and revaccinate feral cats. Some do it once every year or three years, she said, and some caregivers eventually abandon the colonies.
Like I said,,,22 shorts.

Kinda cool...



...in about 30 seconds.

Looks like I made a $70 mistake

Our Logitech Clicksmart 510 stopped working the other day, all I see is three lines in the menu box.

We just got a $180 Nikon and the Picture Project software SUCKS! Plus it (the cam) doesn't come with a mike, so any video we do get is silent.

I decided to bid on this at e-bay after not finding any reviews for Silicone Valley Periphreals. THEN I found this wonderful forum about SVP on CNET.

Ok, it's not the first money mistake I've made- it just comes at a bad time.
This is one of the few times I hope someone outbids me-

Go bid, put down $50.01 on this wonderful and compact DVD camcorder!

Blogrolling has been FUBARed for the last several days

And knowing the way our new masters at GOOGLE work, they probably bought it (it they didn't already own it) and are making it "better".

"Better" in that it will be the way they think it should be, not the way you and your unenlightened non-Liberal @ss wants it to be. There'll be one or two mods you can make, but you won't be able to do a whole lot to personalize it.

Kinda like the big government the Libs love so much..."We're GOOGLE and were here to make life simpler for you."

All I can say to this is WTF?

I know, I said I was going to stop linking to No Jew You-Tube, but someone commented on my Colt video, and I just HAD to click on this in the *next* link.



I think my problems with loading might be coming from Firefox, so I downloaded Opera.
It works alot faster, but won't let me modify it like I want.
It figures because it's a GOOGLE product, too. It knows better how I should have my browser working than I do, because it's *liberal-built*. So inspite of the fact that it 's faster, I'll be uninstalling it and looking for something a little less......all encompassing.

I've mentioned this before

But I'm sure glad I'm not working there anymore.
I should have listened to my "danger radar" and not blown off the little things people said when I was going through the hiring process.

Because the town just Luuuuvs it's politics, infighting and one upsmanship.
It's also very clannish with the two most powerful families having a family tree that looks like a Century plant without the sprouts on top.

I decided to leave when I wanted to, not when it was politically expedient that I not be working there any longer.

BTW- they're looking for a Gas/Electrical Foreman again....

Just thought I'd toss that out if anyone's stupid adventurous enough to try for it.

Maybe that should be Libs -V- Conservatives?

Since I consider myself a Conservative rather than a Republican.
Anyway, This isn't a Meme so much as an interesting post I saw at Miriams blog.

You get what you pay for- Repub/ Free is good-Dem
Guns- Rep/ Metal detectors-Dems
Jerky-Rep/ Granola-Dems
Meat and potaoes-Rep/ Quiche- Dems
"More power!"-Reps/ Peddle power-Dems
Tree farms-Reps/ Sitting in trees- Dems
Pistols at the range-Reps/ Cream pie in a speakers face- Dems
Bonfires- Reps/ Flag burning- Dems
SUV's- Reps/ VW Bug- Dems

Your guy lost:
Get drunk, then go on-Rep/ See a shrink, then spend eight years undermining everything the winner does-Dems

Church- Reps/ Porn- Dems
Hunting and fishing-Rep/ Figure skating- Dems
A good novel-Reps/ You-Tube- Dems
Nuclear energy-Rep/ Miles of ugly @ssed windmills- Dems
Immigration reform...........................????????????........................OK, pass

Quick question for you Army/A.F. guys

I was over here, and he mentioned "Retreat" sounding.

Is that like evening "Colors" in the Navy where the flag comes down?
Why would anyone who's been in more than 3 months go outside when they KNOW they'll get ...caught..... in the 'respect'thang.

I know it's only like 45 seconds, but, but still it gets real old real fast.

Same thing at 8 AM when the flag goes up. I was usually on something loud, so we couldn't hear that.


As a side note- letting you know just HOW the people of Rhode Island appreciate the military:
I overheard two people talking at a grorcery store on Portsmouth, R.I.

1st guy: I live in Newport and my neighbors are really patritotic.
2nd guy: Oh, really? Why?
1st guy: Every day at 8Am amd sundown they play "The star spangled Banner."
2nd guy: You idiot, that's the Navy base.

Are the chickens coming home to roost?

Remember how we (the Bush regime specifically) are were getting beat-up about out "Unilateral" invasion of Iraq?
How we went ahead and just up and invaded on our own?
Both the Dems amd the rest of the world were dumping on our "Unilateral" action. It made absolutly NO difference that we had 72 other countries involved.

After dumping on America for going after Saddam because the U.N. fell down on the job (again), North Korea is in the news.

Isn't John F*ing Kerry and the rest of the Communists Democrat party the ones who are always telling us we need to get the world involved n solving problems?
The U.N. didn't like our "unilateral" problem solving in Iraq.

NOW, according to the Thief-in-chief of the U.N.~ America is supposed to dump the OTHER four countries involved in the NorK talks and set ourselves up for the target when the talks fail yet again.

WHY would we do that Koffi? We get enough of your chit every time we do your job for you.
You've proved just how incompitent the entire U.N. mission is by your toothless resolutions sanctions and "punishments".
Are you ever going to do ANYTHING (exept the usual mismanagement) about Dafur? Maybe you've heard of it, it's been going on for some time now. Somalia? Oh, moslems-right don't want to piss off the "religion of piss, do we?

Is it Blogger this time?

AGAIN?
Or is it Blogrolling that's having fits?

I'm sure it's not my newly rebooted hard drive, since my laptop is showing the same lack of blogrolling links. It's also not showing *my* links ~so it must be Blogger again.

I guess our masters at GOOGLE are tweeking something again.

And speaking of Liberal monopolies- didja hear that GOOGLE bought-up NoJew You-tube? No wonder they were surpressing Pro-American videos. They wanted the Libs at GOOGLE to know that they had absolutely NO problem wiith advancing Islamo-fascism and Liberal ideology at the expense of freedom of expression.

Like a bad penny, she shows up again

The "runawy bride" Jennifer Wilbanks is back in the news.

Along with her ex, and- naturally her bottom feeding shyster lawyer.

She wants a cool half million from her ex fiancee because she hasn't cost him enough for supposedly defrauding her while she was on meds -and NO,not for her eyes.

Supposedly he negotiated a book deal and bought a house with his half, and booted her when he finally got tired of being the town laughing stock her chit.
Well, apparently in her all seeing eyes, she hasn't cost him enough money or pride, yet- and wants to see how much more his bank account can stand.

Jennifer Willbanks, she'll keep her eyes peeled for anything worth snatching.
You go girl, make him hurt where it really counts, and then demand even more money.

P.S. Jen, when are the rest of your people going to visit earth?

I keep hearing these commercials about asset protection

You know- "protect your assets from the looming financial disaster by invesing in GOLD bullion."

Iv'e always had some questions about that. Like to start, if they send you some kind of ownership certificate- how do you *know* its worth any more than the paper it's printed on? How do you trade n the paper for the gold- normally?

If the SHtF, how are you supposed to get the gold when the entire infrastructure is broken down? Drive up to NYC with no cash-well money would be worthless anyway, right? That's why you're heading to NYC to try to pick up your gold, right?

If th SHtF and civilization collapes, wouldn't something else be a little better to barter with than gold? Lets say, some good knives, or a good stash of FOOD? I think I'd rather shoot a deer or pig and barter for veggies or whiskey than gold untill some kind of order surfaces. I can barter my skills - making electricity, and simple electric components, metal workand carpentry for needfull things- beer and clothing.

The thing is, I really don't think that the appocoalyps is going to bring civilizatio crashing down abut out ears.
Not even the Bush doctrin of unrestricted illegal immigration would cause the catostrophic implosion. A quick decline into second or thirdworld status maybe, with the requisite dishonest poitions--Oh, wait we have alot of those already in D.C.

Just a quick footbal update

Houston didn't lose today!

The only reason was that they had a bye this week.

The Crown Vic

Does any other car scream "I'm a cop" like the legacy Police interceptor?
Just coming up on one on thre highway will make you lift your foot a little-0r it should.

I came up on one today on the way home from work, all black with several antennas; but it didn't look right. As I came up on it, I saw the toys in the back and a carrier behind grandpaw. Ok back to cruising speed of XX a little above the speed limit.

I understand why a civilian would want a (literally) bullet proof car with lots of room and the power to get somewhere, but DAYM- can't you buy a Suburban?

Did the Democrats know this was going to happen?

Is that why the border fence passed by a 60 vote margin in the senate?

Just to let you know, el Presidente Bush still hasn't signed the bill. Two more days makes it a pocket veto.
You know, so no-one can say he vetoed the bill. If that happens I pity the poor fools who think there'll be a larg (if any) Republican majority in the Senate.
Does Bush really think he can keep lying to the 80% who want a secure border and still keep from getting Nancy Pelosi as Speaker?

As if the Senate hasn't done enough to chit where they eat, as far as rewarding lawbreakers, now their part leader is going to effectivly cancel the little backbone that the Senate has shown.

Where are politicians who want to defend whats left of the best of America?
It hasn't been in the Democratic party in a decade, and the Republican party is running away from American values as fast as they can.

Tell me why I should even bother to vote?

Texas weather for tonight

Moon lit with clouds that kinda look like an ice flow









Yes Rhianna, that's a Mesquite tree.

So Microsoft, how does it feel to be just like America?

In the "just can't do anything right" department?
Microsoft is coming out with it's Vista OS soon, and trying to make it more secure.
They're even asking hackers for help.

And they're trying to incorporate additional security measures in a "all in one" kind of package- which doesn't sit well with the security companies.

Integrating tighter security features into the new OS seems a logical step, but is it fair?

The European Union has already voiced concern that by including features traditionally bought from independent suppliers, Microsoft is being anti-competitive.

John Viega from McAfee also seems to think so: "I think it's pretty unfortunate that Microsoft is here to cosy up to the security industry when they're working so hard to lock security vendors off their platform.

"With Vista, their new operating system, they're trying to keep vendors off by putting security technologies on that ensure that they have control over who can offer protection and who can't."

Well, I guess when you get big enough, all your friends get jelous, and start begrudging you your succes.

Try again

Let's see how long THIS stays on E-bay.

How about I-film?

My "test" of these video sharing sites is to search for "Iraq" and see what kind of representation I see.

Here is an example of the majority there, and the obvious pro-leftst vids get bad ratings.


The RoP is going to track him down and riot in front of his house.

-OR-

SMOKERS

If you were in the Navy, you know...
