Freaks

But talented freaks.
Why does this remind me of Nine Inch Nails?

Back Off Beyotches, She's Mine!!

The wife painted the bathroom and put a new cabinet (hutch? shelf?) in it, while at the same time, she struck a delicate balance between style and utilitarianism.

Now personally, I would have added another bar of soap, some Q-Tips (good for ears and firearms!) and a couple more washcloths, but who am I to criticize?
And I thought the baby and mother seal really set off the whole ensemble.

I've titled the picture "Way To Go" (although I did briefly consider "Now That's a
Real Pisser"). No charge for the double entendres.
(Clicky picky for a better view)















My wife rocks.
God I love her.

A Classic

Zeppelin is one of those rare bands that has it all.
They have some many really good songs, I've always wondered if they cut deal with the devil like it has been rumored. Although if true, you would think the majority of our Congresscritters would have double-platinum albums.
Just to safe, say an extra prayer. Then listen and enjoy:



No quarter.
Why do I think about politicians and DC when I here that term...?

Real Conversation

A Possible Sign of Redneckitis:

CUG: Honey, have you seen my good Carhartt jacket?

Mrs: Is it hanging on the chair?

Why yes, I do have a Sunday-go-to-meeting Carhartt coat, in addition to my "working" one.
I don't want to be out of style, after all.

Note: If you buy Carhartts because they're made in America, look twice.
A lot of them are made elsewhere now (Mexico, the ones I looked at).
Interestingly, the apparel is no less expensive. How odd.
I'm sure they'll move to China after the crushing cost of Mexican labor forces their hand.

Not Too Far Off

Heh.

"That kind of talk is alarmist and irresponsible/"

That's Not My Wife, My Wife Was Taller

Peace out on the religion of peace, dawgs!!
And yes, Hassan Chop is the real title of the article (dang Brits) -

HASSAN CHOP

New York man Muzzammil Hassan founded pro-Islam station Bridges TV five years ago to combat the negative public image of Muslims. He is currently under arrest for beheading his wife.

I guess he skipped P/R class in college.
And I love this update:

UPDATE II. An earlier news report. “If the charges are true,” writes Kathryn Jean Lopez, “I think it’s fair to say he’s failed at his job.”

Hah! I don't care who you are, that's funny. Ok, not really, but still...

No Wonder I Drink

Is there such a thing as a fourth world country?

Federal obligations exceed world GDP

By Jerome R. Corsi
As the Obama administration pushes through Congress its $800 billion deficit-spending economic stimulus plan, the American public is largely unaware that the true deficit of the federal government already is measured in trillions of dollars, and in fact its $65.5 trillion in total obligations exceeds the gross domestic product of the world.

Don't worry, it's not quite that bad as the world GDP is estimated to be 70 trillion in '08. People are always exaggerating!

The real 2008 federal budget deficit was $5.1 trillion, not the $455 billion previously reported by the Congressional Budget Office, according to the "2008 Financial Report of the United States Government" as released by the U.S. Department of Treasury.

The pols have been lying to us?!?!?!? Say it isn't so, Joe!!

"In a post-Enron world, if the federal government were a corporation such as General Motors, the president and senior Treasury officers would be in federal penitentiary."

True.
Go read the whole article here: Federal obligations exceed world GDP.

Any possibility of a happy ending here? Anyone?
Bueller? Bueller...?

E rr... Uhh...Well...Heh.

Reefer Madness [Andrew Stuttaford]

Look, I don't blame Michael Phelps for apologizing. He has a living to earn, so he did what he had to do.

In the meantime, I merely note that this broken wreck of a man's failure to win any more than a pathetic fourteen Olympic gold medals (so far) is a terrifying warning of the horrific damage that cannabis can do to someone's health—and a powerful reminder of just how sensible the drug laws really are.

Heh.
He should check into rehab. At least he can afford the best!!

Overheard at the Supermarket

Hey folks.
I was chastised at work for being a lazy, selfish bastard for not posting lately.
Guilty as charged.

So here is a true story that I thought was sort of funny -

I would guess the little girl that said the following was 2 or 3 years old; and I quote:

"MMMMMMASSENGILL!!! That's what you use, huh mom"?

Until this point, I was unaware you could hear someone's face turning red.
I stand corrected.
