Goddamned news.
On the radio this am, 20 seconds to the Texas thing. Most of that was spent on how "critics say organizers are a hate group" shit, with 2 seconds on "the motives of the gunmen were unclear." Shitheads. If you're saying that the organizers were inciting violence, then the motives of the gunmen are all TOO fucking clear, you trogs. But if the motives were unclear, then the event wasn't really that goddamned controversial. Posted by: @JohnTant` at May 04, 2015 08:30 AM (PFy0L) 21

NPR just aired a story about political corruption. The anchor even read the definition of corruption prior to the "reporter" covering the story, who sounds like a gelded male. So, money in politics is the topic. Their case study? Hillary!? Nahhh, nothing going on there. They referenced a conference call between Rubio and the Koch Brother's.

Last night I wrote that we live about 5 miles from the center in Garland that was attacked last night. I was wrong: we live 3.6 miles away by road and 3.4 miles away in a straight line.
We're so close that we heard the boom caused by the explosion last night. It spooked my wife but I dismissed it as a stray thundercloud. A few minutes later, a FOX News reporter announced the explosion. I don't have any information other than what's publicly known. We frequent a breakfast place and have gotten to know a few Garland and other area cops there. I doubt they'll tell me anything but I'll let the Horde know if one of them wants to talk.

Wow, Douthat is still an idiot I see.
I don't think he's wrong about the comparisons between police and teacher's unions, but to insist (and I quote) With this important difference, however: Even with the worst teacher, the effects are diffused across many years and many kids, and it's hard for just one teacher to do that much damage to any given student. A bad cop, on the other hand, can leave his victim dead or permanently damaged, and under the right circumstances one cop's bad call -- or a group of cops' habitual thuggishness -- can be the spark that leaves a city like Baltimore in flames Shows just how idiotic he is. Point of fact, the shitty Baltimore school system is likely to blame as well for all this. But more to the point, claiming there are no "center-right republicans" who want to scale back the police unions is a cute dodge. Indeed they're aren't any RINOs who want to do it. But lots of Farther-Right conservatives who do. Posted by: tsrblke, PhD(c) rogue bioethicst at May 04, 2015 09:10 AM (HDwDg) 122

@91
I am torn. I love the name Charlotte. But, the idea of naming their child in homage to Prince Charles makes me want to throw up in my mouth. I wonder about the name Diana. If I remember correctly, Kate was a huge fan of the late Diana Spencer, so I can imagine her wanting to name the child Diana, and Wills not wanting to, ironically. Or, maybe they want to preserve the name Diana for Harry. Some friends of mine sadly lost their father at a very young age, 2 boys and 1 girl. When the first grandchild came, everyone expected the boy to be named after the late grandfather. And, everyone was shocked when he wasn't...not even the middle name. Come to find out, the boys vowed to save the name for their sister to use, when the time comes. She was Daddy's Little Girl, and they wanted her to be able to use it. Very sweet. I am going to guess completely off the grid and say Caroline. Posted by: TickledPink at May 04, 2015 09:12 AM (RLFFI) Posted by: Y-not on the phone at May 04, 2015 09:12 AM (9BRsg) 130

I think the last, lesser, Ice Age ended about 12K years ago, and the larger earlier one around 30K.
And no I'm not looking it up. That's cheating. I think you're correct. But something I'm noticing is an effort by the left wing to pronounce that Ice Ages run on 100,000 year cycles. For some reason. They give it the correct name 'Milankovitch Cycle' -- then make up shit. It's funny -- they say the earth has this cute sounding 'wobble'. Well the fact is, the earth tilts a little further on its axis to one extreme for 10,000 years and warms, shedding the glaciers, then tilts to the other extreme for 10,000 years and slowly covers the most productive farmland on the planet under ice. And yes, it's heading in the Ice Age direction again. Posted by: SE Pa Moron at May 04, 2015 09:37 AM (xQX/f) 232

That's what I heard. One security guard injured in the ankle. I don't know about the two shots, both fatal point. TX Cops are taught like most others: keep shooting until the threat is ended. Given how fast one can pull the trigger (and keep it on target) it would be remarkable (though by no means impossible) for the officers to have fired only twice.

That reminds me. Camping with the cub scouts this weekend (had lots of fun, too much sun, and not enough sleep) there was a tarantula in one of the showers. Obviously, we left that shower alone (there 7 others, so it's not like it was an inconvenience, though it freaked out some of the women (and one of the men) camping with us). The scouts have the concept of "leave no trace." Anything you take in, you pack back out. Leave nature alone to the extent possible, etc. Nevertheless, someone squished the poor tarantula. I felt sad. I mean, okay, killing a spider in your home- go for it. That spider is in your place. But killing a spider in *its* home? Not cool, man.

I think our media here in the US is jealous of Britain's royal family. They desperately want their own royal family to cover 24/7 like the press in Britain. The unrelenting coverage and knob-polishing of the Kennedy, Clinton, and Obama families is an attempt to finally get that "royal" family they can adore. I don't think they're all that interested in the Bush family, since they're Republicans, though. They can never be "hip", "cool", or worthy of any positive coverage in any way because of the R.

What I love about the dead jihadis-
is that in Texas people take their guns very seriously. The vast majority of people who carry also practice on a regular basis, so- the security guard who shot them wasn't some fat, donut eating-fuq who carried an empty revolver for show- more than likely he was a guy who practiced regularly, knew gun safety, and carried a loaded pistol. And so he did his job. In NYC, death count of civilians, guards, and cops - easily in the 20's In little ole Garland, TX - 2 dead jihadoturds, 1 wounded guard 1st and 2nd Amendments both demonstrated and upheld - Priceless Posted by: naturalfake at May 04, 2015 09:46 AM (KUa85) 259

There was a lot of security at the event. Not sure if the guards were wearing vests. Mightve been.
Posted by: Y-not on the phone at May 04, 2015 09:36 AM From the photos I've seen it looks like the event hired Dallas SWAT. It appears as though a couple of Phoenix Islam trash talkers bumbled into special forces while they were simultaneously shooting the parking cop in the ankle. Surprise!!!

Again? Seems like it was just 40 years ago we were doing that
Fucking media wouldn't know science if it hit them on the head with a 2 X 4. Here's how we know which direction the planet is tilting and moving. You pick the exact same day every year, at the exact same time. Is the sun exactly overhead? Keep walking till you find that spot. Drive stake into ground. The next year, same test. Notice distance between stakes. "New" stake about a quarter mile further south. Which means northern hemisphere with more quickly heating land mass is losing sunlight. Slowly. Southern hemisphere with less land mass, more water is gaining sunlight. Posted by: SE Pa Moron at May 04, 2015 09:59 AM (xQX/f) 303

That reminds me. Camping with the cub scouts this weekend (had lots of fun, too much sun, and not enough sleep) there was a tarantula in one of the showers. Obviously, we left that shower alone (there 7 others, so it's not like it was an inconvenience, though it freaked out some of the women (and one of the men) camping with us). The scouts have the concept of "leave no trace." Anything you take in, you pack back out. Leave nature alone to the extent possible, etc. Nevertheless, someone squished the poor tarantula. I felt sad. I mean, okay, killing a spider in your home- go for it. That spider is in your place. But killing a spider in *its* home? Not cool, man. ----- Tarantulas are kind of cool and they don't hurt anything. It's easy to scoop them up and throw them outside, plus then you don't have to clean up the guts. I've done it, and I'm a chick. Tired of pussy men and women who are too scared to do that.

Hey Circa...If you are still around, how much swimming do you do? I was doing laps last year and then it got a bit cold and I am trying to get back to the pool but I'm not very focused. I just alternate between freestyle, breast stroke and backstroke for a while... Posted by: Lea at May 04, 2015 09:33 AM (lIU4e) ============= The right exercise is the exercise that you will do. Yoga and weights for me, but the choice is do it, and hurt, or hurt more and resign myself to sitting at home bitching forever more. So I do it. Gladly. When you feel unfocused, think about the pain you are avoiding. If it isn't enough to focus you, than it isn't enough to be someone else's problem. That may sound unsympathetic, but for me, I am constantly irate at myself at how much of my life I wasted cutting myself too much slack. So do it. Find something that you are willing to do and do it. Strength and Flexibity both. Posted by: Old Toby at May 04, 2015 03:20 PM (Lre/J) Processing 0.06, elapsed 0.0722 seconds. |
