One last thought about the douche-bag Adam Smith

Then hopefully we can forget about him...except for the Google machine and his future employers.

Anyone who makes an "apology" video and spends 7 minutes lecturing you is still a douche.

Can you imagine going to work on your first day of a job and seeing that prick as your boss? I'd think about quitting right there on the spot.

Discontinued Olympic competitions

I was over at Legal Insurrection (but he doesn't know it because I've never signed up for anything) and he's got a list of abandoned sports of the Olympics here.

Motor-boating?
SRSLY?

How did that work?

Did your opponent pick the 'boatee?'
How were points awarded?
Could you use your wife?


Did they have a 'windsheld-wiper' competition, because that's the way I like to get them started....

So, Harry Reid is still flogging the romney tax horse?

Ok, instead of that whole "Harry Reid is a child molester" thing- lets get some real news going.

How about the Federal employees (including some on Harries staff) who owe a collective $3.4 Billion in back taxes- as of two years ago, and I don't think it's better now.

OR-

Maybe mention that if Romney's tax problem prevents him from being President- that being the heat of the Treasury would work, since it's some kind of requirement in the Obama administration....

One of the few poems I know by heart

The charge of the Light Brigade

1.

Half a league, half a league,
Half a league onward,
All in the valley of Death
Rode the six hundred.
"Forward, the Light Brigade!
"Charge for the guns!" he said:
Into the valley of Death
Rode the six hundred.

2.

"Forward, the Light Brigade!"
Was there a man dismay'd?
Not tho' the soldier knew
Someone had blunder'd:
Theirs not to make reply,
Theirs not to reason why,
Theirs but to do and die:
Into the valley of Death
Rode the six hundred.

3.

Cannon to right of them,
Cannon to left of them,
Cannon in front of them
Volley'd and thunder'd;
Storm'd at with shot and shell,
Boldly they rode and well,
Into the jaws of Death,
Into the mouth of Hell
Rode the six hundred.

4.

Flash'd all their sabres bare,
Flash'd as they turn'd in air,
Sabring the gunners there,
Charging an army, while
All the world wonder'd:
Plunged in the battery-smoke
Right thro' the line they broke;
Cossack and Russian
Reel'd from the sabre stroke
Shatter'd and sunder'd.
Then they rode back, but not
Not the six hundred.

5.

Cannon to right of them,
Cannon to left of them,
Cannon behind them
Volley'd and thunder'd;
Storm'd at with shot and shell,
While horse and hero fell,
They that had fought so well
Came thro' the jaws of Death
Back from the mouth of Hell,
All that was left of them,
Left of six hundred.

6.

When can their glory fade?
O the wild charge they made!
All the world wondered.
Honor the charge they made,
Honor the Light Brigade,
Noble six hundred.

67 years ago

Harry Truman saved the lives of the grandfathers and great grandfathers of the ones protesting the anniversary of the Hiroshima bomb.

Because socialists don't understand people

I just watched "Lost castles of England" on Netflix.
It's about wooden castles and what the were in their height.
 
Leonard Nemoy was reading what the A&E writers wrote about how it's surprising that all the peons who lives as serfs abandoned those wooden castles, but still supported the Church of the same fiefdom.

It's like they don't understand how people resent being forced to live the way someone else forces them to.

On the topic of all things to everyone

Did you know that before he changed his name the second time, Barack was called Jim Dandy?
And that he used his super powers for good?






...And, NO- I didn't pick this clip just because Ruby Starr was in it.
Not completely anyhow.

This reminds me of an old saying

All hat and no cattle-

Stolen from Blues blog.

The douchbag Adam Smith made another video

In this one, he tries in his Morally superior way -to apologize to Rachel (the victim of his self righteous wrath).

He still has that entire Liberal lack of awareness in his tunnel vision about Conservatives.
You watch and decide:


Does this kind of remind you of when Hillary! was First lady and discovered that her janitor (or maintenance guy- whatever) was a human being like herself, and had plans for the future?

Do you think he supports the PLO freedom armada?
What about CAIR?

Do you think he's still a dooshnozzle?

The Jihadi Hasan had another day in court yesterday

He still had the illegal beard that he was ordered to shave off last time -and was fined another $1000 for disobeying a direct order.

I knew he was going to use that moslim Bravo Sierra about having a beard when I first heard about it. Now the Judge is going to forcibly have Jihadi Hasan shaved if he doesn't do it himself.

Who wants to bet that when that happens- everything will break loose that the PC crowd has been trying to keep under wraps since Hasan was a Lt. (or Capt,,,,) and the Army will be charged with violating the tenants of Islam for making the terrorist Hasan ...shave.


Like he had no problem doing until that religious fever hit him.

Happy 100 Julia

Record sales at Chick-Fill-A yesterday

Sure is a lot of uproar about one bible-thumper stating what you'd expect a believing baptist to say.LOOK!

So, what is the willing accomplices in the lamestream media hiding from us about what's going on at the Chicago-on-the-Potomac?

Oh- LOOK!!
Chick-Fill-A!
QUICK, stare at it while we do something we don't want you to know about.

Now for news that's not

It's not news because it comes from CNN and it's about guns.

Actually It's basically a friendly puff piece for the gun control lobby with numbers pulled from their asses some lefty gun surveys via the usual suspects.

The data, collected by the Injury Prevention Journal, the United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime, the General Social Survey and population figures from the U.S. Census Bureau, found that the number of U.S. households with guns has declined, but current gun owners are gathering more guns.

The United States tends to have better data on gun numbers than other countries, for instance Somalia or the Democratic Republic of the Congo, which may account for the high percentage, according to Alan Lizotte, dean and professor at the School of Criminal Justice at The University at Albany.

.~snip~

Politicians from both parties have tip-toed around gun control after the Aurora, Colorado, movie theater massacre to avoid political implications in the upcoming election. However, studies suggest they are bowing to a smaller number of American gun owners.

Those gun owners tend to live in swing states, explained Lizotte.

"You can see where [the gun debate plays out] in the presidential election," said Lizotte. "Where rural states are swing states and urban states are not."

Hey! Wasn't that theater a gun free zone?

Texas is a swing state?  Oh yeah King Putt told the libs it was when he came here begging for money.

Still, while it is possible to collect accurate data on the number of guns in the United States using manufacturing, import-export and life-cycle data for the guns, the federal government has little idea of who the guns owners are, gun policy experts said.

BULLSHIT!!!!!one!!!!

I'm fixing to pick up a new Henry this week-end and the .GOV will know EVERYTHING about the rifle and me. Then that record will go somewhere that it's not supposed to go, so the .GOV can confiscate it when the time is right and say "Oops, my bad- we didn't destroy the records like the we were legally required to do.

Now in the same vein of journalistic purity of spirit, have some self portraits. 

Just remember what has been seen cannot be unseen.

Whoa, Valerie- lets back the soul train up

So Valerie Jarrett writes a piece of propaganda for the White House and her puppet who signed that Executive Order about a black education bureaucracy.

The President has made it a top priority to provide a complete and competitive education for all Americans – from cradle to career.  The White House bureaucracy Initiative on Educational Excellence for African Americans, created by this Executive Order, will work across Federal bureaucracies agencies and with partners and communities nationwide to produce a more effective continuum of education bureaucracies programs for African American students.  The initiative aims to ensure that all African American students receive an education that fully prepares them for high school graduation, college completion, and productive careers.
Just like we've been telling you we're going to do for the last 50 years.

In the nearly 60 years since the Brown v.Board of Education decision put America on a path toward equal educational opportunity, America’s educational system has undergone a remarkable transformation.  Many African American children who attended substandard, segregated schools in the 1950s have grown up to see their children attend integrated and effective elementary and secondary schools, colleges, and universities.
(and those blacks in segregated schools could read and do higher math as well as understand the scientific method)
Nonetheless, substantial obstacles to equal educational opportunity still remain in America’s school systems.  Disproportionately, students of color, including African Americans, lag in equal access to highly effective teachers and principals, safe schools, and challenging college-preparatory classes.  And they experience school discipline and referrals to special education at higher rates than their peers.
Umm- Ok Val you got us there.
Is this new  bureaucracy of yours going to try to do anything about that whole "Acting white" thing when black kids actually TRY to learn anything?
What about that whole single mother,welfare dependency, gangbanging attitude? Or is that another Presidential Order to start another Federal bureaucracy?

That's Jeff Vader that is....

Sorry, had this running through my head today.

Unrelated thoughts

• The TX electrical reliability council  has warned that with the Obama EPA coal fired powerplant chopping ax happening next year and the increase in population- that there would probably be (even more) rolling black-outs in the future..........there are suddenly no generators or motor-driven arc welders available in the SA craigslist.
• I've always had a very low tolerance for stupidity. I see Agirls husband does, too. I was going to leave this on my FB page, but decided to let you in on a part of my life at that sekrit AFB in San Antonio.

As part of the reworking of the electrical distribution system, we're burying 6" and 4" PVC conduit encased in cement for the primary. This includes setting transformers, switch gear and vaults (big concrete pull boxes- basically). I've been having to try to get Larry, Daryl and Daryl to actually....work since they hired on.

Last Weds they were told to clean off the ends of the pipe that got buried by the last rain- there were four ends going to two different trenches. On one of them, I was digging a 12'x12'x12' hole for a vault.

I had to tell them four times to go work on the other ones while I had that hole open-

Can you believe I had to tell those stupid f*cks to move the ladder?

• We had to get rid of some matting on the house-tribbles chest and pits with a petclippers. In the process I noticed we ended up cutting some of her whiskers. She doesn't seem to mind, but I'm wondering if they grow back?

UPDATE-
Thanks to BFH for the IOtW-lanch.

So I took off Thursday to vote

It was a runoff election between a Tea Party Conservative and the RINO David Dewhurst.

After voting I had to take this picture showing what was prohibited from the polling place in Medina County, TX less than a week after the Aurora shootings.

Ya, cell phones!

Eat it hoplophobes.

So, for a quarter of a Million Dollars a year from the Taxpayers- we get less than sixteen hours of non-fundraising work out of the Chicago Jeezus....

I took off yesterday to vote and still got 56 hours, but I guess digging a trench is more important than presidenting.

Too accurate not to share

I just can't remember where I lifted it from...

Davit Dewhurst can't even make a good attack ad

Listening to that middle school script attacking Ted Cruz for US Senator yesterday morning decided me to take off today so I could be sure to vote against him and David Wentworth.

Badly written and read attack ads work- but they work the wrong way with me.

The NCAA hammered Penn State

I'm hearing two things about it.
It was wayyy to hard-
and
Tough, F-them they deserve it.

The ones that are saying it was way to harsh, and is punishing the innocent students- Hey the NCAA is a bunch of Liberal academics who believe the punishment should fit the crime political ideals of the current PC protected class.

What I'm not hearing is the same cries of "it hurts the people not involved...who didn't have anything to do with it!" when the PO-Po come breaking down the wrong door at 3AM shooting the dogs and the homeowner...then having the taxpayers picking up the tab.

Or am I off base there?

35 hours on the clock since Sunday

I could take off about 11:30 tomorrow, but they authorized OT for this last week.
I don't know how much I want, because right now five days off sound good-
But so does lots of extra cash...

Except, like I told the boss- the more you make, the more they take out (which is why I wish they'd let us bank hours)

Anyway this is what I had running through my mind today:

DoOooBie!

No It's not Dobie Gillis.
I'm working again, so have a dobie VS kitteh video-

No ice cream today

I'm working.

Go let the .GOV help you build something.

UPDATE-
I'm getting to old to be working 10 1/2 hour days in this heat.
i finished off a half gallon of Sunny-D in the 20 minutes it took to get home from the Wally-World I had to stop at for iguana chow.
We're working tomorrow because we hit a mis-marked gas line and we lost about two hours for the Lackland finest to find us (on one of the main streets) and shut off the gas so we could keep working.

Tomorrow we're going to try finishing what we didn't today.

Your choice

Truth to power.
Biting the hand that feeds you.

More realistic battle scenes than we get nowadays.

The Battle of Culloden  on Netflix.

And the way our British overlords helped to ensure a free America...because we didn't want the benevolent attentions of the Crown going after our families.

AND how lucky we are that we had our military leader based on ability than royalty.

UPDATE:
"Braveheart:" it's not.


UPDATE II...
Wow, Bonnie Prince Charlie lead the Scots rebels like  someone else I can think of  once he was defeated...

Umm..haven't I heard that before that 'Bonnie Prince  Charles Bravely runs away"?

Fun with cats

Get one fat house-tribble.

Rile her up by playing with her feet and back toes until she's growling.

Set her on the desk near the edge.

Let the stoopid puppy from hell start wanting to play with her.

Watch and laugh as stoopid puppy from hell gets repeatedly swatted with vengeance.

There's always hope, Ms. Social worker

Because your little thug was the only one who didn't run away when caught, and actually came at you afterwards-

Don't you think he's had enough "second chances"?

The USS Jerry Ford (CVN)

That's a thought, isn't it?

Now, who reading this didn't just a little- think, gawd how does an Aircaft Carrier trip?

But this is special because it's the first naval ship designed with a mixed sex crew.
Which means No Urinals!

Yes, we have broken the gender barrier
Now instead of urinals,  women will have to put up with seats left up or some dickhead pissing all over the seat because he couldn't raise it.

Haven't flown in quite a while

And never since the iWON started ramping-up the Fourth Amendment assaults in the airports.

I was catching up on Tams posts and one of them made me wonder about how hard they look at what's in your basket?

So, who can spot the dangerous object that could bring down a 747...or something:

...That's been on my keyring so long I forget I have it until I need it...
