But it would be hard to name any other occupation with a more cowardly record than academics, who have been giving in to politically correct campus bullies ever since the 1960s. Thomas SowellQuote II “But let me offer you my definition of social justice: I keep what I earn and you keep what you earn. Do you disagree?

Williams Quote III “Only the Democratic Party could produce a string of presidential candidates who oppose school choice and vouchers while sending their own children to lily-white private schools. Only the Democratic Party could hysterically denounce a Supreme Court nominee for allegedly making unwanted sexual advances in the workplace and then applaud a president who was receiving oral sex from a White House intern while discussing deploying American troops with a congressman on the phone. Indeed, only the Democrats could oppose Clarence Thomas, actually block Supreme Court nominee Douglas Ginsburg (for marijuana use), and then run Bill Clinton for president.” Ann Coulter Federal courts say DACA workers are now a protected class
Attempting to overthrow a duly elected POTUS? High paying gigs at CNN. Too much coffee? No!!!!!! Too much water? Yes. Over hydration can kill you. In 2017, a University of Texas football coach created a urine-based “Longhorn Football Hydration Chart,” which labeled players with yellow urine as “selfish teammates” and those with brown urine as “bad guys.” This “hydration shaming” practice has permeated high school sports, thereby encouraging a sporting culture which equates superior performance with superior hydration. Overzealous obedience to this hydration advice has uncovered a dark underbelly to superior hydration practices: overhydration. When high school football player Walker Wilbanks died in Mississippi in August 2014 from overhydration, the doctor said that the cause of death was an “unpredictable freak occurrence.” Diane Feinstein, The advantages of living in a big city?

She is the songwriter and lead vocalist of death metal group TritoneKings and is known as “Death-Metal Grandma”. Inge has had quite a remarkable life. She grew up in Austria, but was forced to flee to Switzerland in the early days of World War 2, to avoid persecution. She spent years in a refugee camp, and after the war, she and her husband relocated to Hollywood, where they had to start their new life from scratch. Inge was able to begin a career in the music industry, composing songs for some of the most popular singers at the time, such as Nat King Cole, Doris Day, and Dean Martin. After a while, Inge started to get tired of Hollywood life, and decided to reinvent herself. Today, she is the vocalist of a death metal band.These two guys dazed and confused.

"But let me offer you my definition of social justice: I keep what I earn and you keep what you earn. Do you disagree? Well then tell me how much of what I earn belongs to you - and why?" Walter E. Williams
More to the point: how much of what they earn are they going to give to us? People who talk about social justice implicitly assume that they'll be the beneficiaries of the largess in question, not the providers of it. I put that to a (black) friend of mine about "helping the poor." I replied, "Africans are MUCH poorer than American blacks, so how much are American blacks going to contribute to help the poor in Africa?" Long silence. "You see, you tacitly assumed that the help would be provided to American blacks, but on the same principle - that those who have more should give to those who have less - American blacks would be the providers of such help. Kinda puts a different complexion (?) on it, doesn't it?" In fairness, he had the intellectual honesty to admit that it most certainly did.

August 8, 1986, David Crosby of Crosby, Stills and Nash was released from prison after serving three years for drug and weapons possession. His conviction would be overturned by a Texas appeals court in November 1987. via thisdayi.com
++++ In 1985, Crosby was arrested for drunken driving, a hit-and-run driving accident, and possession of a concealed pistol and drug paraphernalia. Crosby was arrested after driving into a fence in a Marin County suburb, where officers found a .45-caliber pistol and cocaine in his car. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/David_Crosby#Drug_ charges,_legal_alcohol_issues_and_prison_time If he was hitting and running in 1985, how could he have served 3 years when he was released in 1986? Wiki does say that he did 9 months in 1982 for drugs and weapons. Wiki doesn't say what happened with the 1985 arrest or even if he got convicted on that one. Posted by: Anon Y.

My latest FBI felony complaint:
In accordance with my 18 U.S. Code 4 obligation to report felonies to federal law enforcement personnel I enter the following felony complaint: The corporations Facebook, Apple, Google and Spotify have each joined in a conspiracy with Senator Mark Warner by taking actions to remove Alex Jones Infowars site from internet services the companies each run. Since Mr. Jones Infowars site is a for profit business - their actions are conspiracies in restraint of trade - each of which is a felony violation of 15 U.S. Code 1. By the way, since the actions of these companies were all simultaneously done out in the open in the same week, a first-year law student could win these conspiracy cases against Clarence Darrow for the defense, so there is absolutely no legal excuse for not prosecuting this. Of Course, if the relevant US Attorneys don't like what Mr. Jones does with his site, and simply wish to join the corporations (whose names may be abbreviated as F.A.G.S.) in the conspiracy I can certainly understand why they wouldn't prosecute.

Some guys were reminiscing about old posters on the last thread; does anyone remember when Jim Treacher showed up one Friday night and Empire of Jeff made an offhand joke about his getting run into by the Paste Eater's security fleet of SUVs. Treacher went ballistic and EoJ started backtracking and apologizing but JT must've had a belly full of booze and pain pills because he wouldn't let up. Then some 'ettes tried calming him down and he was calling all of them cum dumpsters in terms that were vile even by my standards.
I was ready to jump in and unload on his monkey ass when my internet service went out. I went to call the AT&T assholes and my phone was just as dead. Here some service clown installed Uverse for someone and disconnected all my shit. Fortunately there's a service office not too far away and they looked up what happened right away but they couldn't get me back online until the next morning (plus back then they were a more standup company than the current bunch of miserly fucks and credited me a couple hundred for their screwup). When I finally got back on everyone was talking about what a dumpster fire the whole thing was. A lot of people were saying cut Treacher slack but people who were online at the time were saying fuck that. I've never thought of him the same way since. EoJ felt a bit bad for being the spark that ignited things but it wasn't anything markedly different from his usual lines. Posted by: Captain Hate at August 08, 2018 10:27 PM (y7DUB) 180

Sometimes we need to back off and apologize even when what we did wasn't so bad, just because we see someone is in a bad place and you'll push them too far.

Yes you can kill yourself with water, but your body will start to reject it before that point.
In my rave kiddie days before I turned 29, we were warned that was the main risk of doin' X. You'd be out there dancing, and you'd be dehydrated, and you'd want water. Also the water would taste REALLY GOOD. So you'd drink more of it than you needed to. Also you'd be tripping total balls so you'd lose track of how much you needed. Overhydration put more than a few rave kiddies in the ER. Posted by: the aussie mohel at August 08, 2018 10:36 PM (N1ZXu) 222

EoJ/Treacher was just plain bizarre. As I recall, EoJ's comment wasn't remotely a swipe at Treacher, but just a comment referencing the situation. Treacher went cockeyed-Nork ballistic and wouldn't stop.

Feel free to skip this wall of text.
Regarding that Muslim compound in northern New Mexico, a couple of observations. I know that area quite well. It is less than 40 miles from where my F-I-L disappeared (murdered by a neighbor in a ramshackle off grid home) back in 2008. That part of New Mexico is known as the upper Rio Grande Valley and is the southern extension of the San Luis Valley of Colorado. Together they form a diamon shaped high mountain valley with a very flat floor at about 7000' above sea level. The flats are nearly treeless and the vegetation is largely mixed scrub and sagebrush. There are more conifers as you get up into the mountains on either side of the valley. The small town where the compound is located is on a side road off the highway, the side road goes up to a defunct small ski area in the hills. Both sides of the border are very sparsely populated, with lots of 5 acre lots and some 30-40 acre lots. Mostly private land. The western side of the valley is the site of traditional large Spanish land grants from the 1830s. Some, such as the Taylor Ranch have remained as large blocs. Others, such as the Forbes family holdings in Colorado have been subdivided into cabin site lots. There are many, many off grid homes, as the San Luis Valley has over 340 days of sunshine a year, making it ideal for solar powered homes. Many of the occupied lots make ramshackle look upscale by comparison. There are lots with nothing but a pick-up camper or old school bus as residences. A few miles further south are some of the so-called earth ships (e.g. Dennis Weaver's place), made out of things like old auto tires and packed earth. A junk filled compound would hardly cause a second look, being rather more par for the area. The population is perhaps 70-80% Hispanic, many descendants of original Spanish settlers with 5-6 generation history in the area. Whites are most of the other 20-30%, roughly half of long-standing history and half relative newcomers. Blacks are much much less than 1% of the total. An openly Muslim garbed individual or group WOULD stand out like a sore thumb. Everybody has guns. Everybody shoots on their own property. Some do so responsibly. There is a substantial population of people "living in the shadows". Case in point being my F-I-L's neighbor who was a pedophile offender in violation of his parole living under a false name and the guy who started the forest fire last month, Jesper Jorgenson, in the country illegally. It does not surprise me that they were able to stay there, even partially squatting on neighboring property for over a year. But I bet there were some raised eyebrows among the longer term residents. TLR version: It couldn't have happened in a more apt place. Posted by: Muldoon at August 08, 2018 10:44 PM (m45I2) Posted by: Misanthropic Humanitarian at August 08, 2018 10:45 PM (3Pma+) 264

The thing had stew in it. I don't mean "wow they put stuff in here like stew" I mean they cracked open a can of generic stew and poured it into a burrito. With carrots and potatoes. And it was really, really bad stew. Generally speaking, I'll eat whatever I buy because I paid money for it, but I couldn't gag this thing down. I threw it at the trash and a seagull landed to try it. It flew away without eating any. It was that bad. Posted by: Christopher R Taylor at August 08, 2018 10:46 PM (39g3+) 268

Many years ago a friends motorcycle was stolen. He saw it about a year later, called the cops and they came a arrested the rider.
Long story short the rider had bought it from the thief. The judge said my friend could have his bike back but had to pay the rider for the improvements. Posted by: Diogenes at August 08, 2018 10:36 PM (0tfLf) IMHO, regarding that stolen Talbot-Lago, if goods are stolen, there is no way that the thief can create good title to them by reselling.

Paris has quite a few Tex Mex places. The French like to try different
cuisines. They are not the best, but the same could be said about many of the same restaurants in this country. It is shocking what people consider to be good Mexican food. As for London, I remember a place that was not overly authentic but still pretty cool. It was called the Texas Embassy London. The restaurant was located next to the actual location of the Embassy of Texas when Texas was a Republic. I think Texas had embassies in London and Paris. I don't know if the place is still around.

worst soup I ever ate was in London, it was Boxing
Day (Dec. 26) and virtually nothing was open, save a pub right by the British Museum. I thought they served me dishwater by mistake. Posted by: ghost of hallelujah at August 08, 2018 11:07 PM (oAY8z) You can certainly get bad stuff in London, no doubt. I think even the Burger King food is worse there than here. But they can do some things well. You can get a really good fish and chips and also some good indian food. But the key point is that you have to seek the best places out. Like most countries, particularly countries that have a lot of tourists, the average place sucks and is a tourist trap. Of course a random fish and chips place in London will not be great. Just like random restaurants in the USA are not great. But if you do your homework, there are some amazing places. Posted by: Quint at August 08, 2018 11:13 PM (n13/j) 367

But the Brits added to it too. I think Tikka Masala is not native to India or the US, it is a Brit thing. But yeah, they have a history of bad food. The French call them Rosbifs, and that is no compliment. It is interesting that the Brits may have gone in for cooking shows even more than us. Gordon Ramsay is a Brit. Jamie Oliver is a Brit. Better then both of them was the "Two Fat Ladies". I think the Brits might have started this whole culinary craze as a rebellion to their previously vapid cuisine.

I loved Two Fat Ladies, but you knew how that show was gonna end with how they cooked. Everything needed more bacon fat. But damn, what they cooked looked good. Their pastry/baking show is great, they show real talent there, and definitely that's a strength of the country. I think you're right about the cooking shows, though. Ramsay specifically is trying to bring back old British cooking, the stuff they used to do before the war. My theory is that the British got so used to cooking out of a can or a box because of the rationing (and food shipments from the USA) that they kind of lost their ability to actually cook.

Ghost of Hallelujah, I grew up hearing my teachers speak glowingly of Indians and how they used every part of the animal. Being of American Indian descent, myself, I sort of took a little pride in that.
So, yeah, I'm not really bothered by the idea of eating parts of the animal that aren't normally eaten in modern society. Pink slime? Doesn't bother me. Rocky Mountain oysters? Pretty good! Haggis? Well, I haven't actually eaten that since it's illegal to import because of the lung meat. But I'll give it a try! I've eaten a "haggis dog" that was served at a local Scottish festival, and really liked it. Basically, it was a hot dog with the spices used in haggis.

Posted by: Zettai Roshia-no Botto at August 08, 2018 11:29 PM (e9G8E) Meat wrapped in a flour-based wrapper, so yeah, fundamentally similar.

Posted by: Alberta Oil Peon at August 08, 2018 11:32 PM (LI7AQ) My philosophy has always been that great world cuisines have their versions of fajitas/burritos.

My poor doggie now looks like she has the mange. She went for a snooze under the corner of one of the Suburbans, that I drove down a rural road which was being seal-coated last night. Fender wells and running board (especially the underside) were coated in oozy black oil, which dripped on the ground. Dog rolled in it. First I noticed, she came for a ride today in the pickup, and got tar marks all over the seat.
I spent two hours with a can of gasoline, a brush, and rags, cleaning oil off the Suburban. I tried a can of brake cleaner and a rag on Pogo; she did not like that one bit. So I got a small pair of scissors, and clipped the worst blobs out of her coat. She was in the truck again, and did not mar the seat, so I guess it worked. But she looks...ragged.

I smell a rat on that car story. It seems to me that the guy who bought it from the broker wanted it street legal. But, there was a known problem. Lieske got a favor and kept the theft on the books beyond the 10 year period. So, that Ford guy was hired to show up out of the blue and walk the cousin (who seems pretty clueless) through the motions, eventually losing the case and the car. It was a pretty open and closed case until he appealed and won (and probably shouldn't have based on the wording of the law).
It's obviously an inside job of theft. They took hidden parts and the paperwork. Someone in the car collecting business who had been to the shop knew where to get it all...even the list of previous potential buyers. The shop up in mass (acting as broker) not checking stolen vehicle reports is the kicker. That NEVER happens unless they know what they will find. Not on a 7 million dollar auto.

Other Hollywood bloggers are calling it the end of the Academy Awards, more or less, ever being taken seriously again. Don't agree but it's obviously a cheap way for the AMPAS voters to seem "hip and with it" again, while they continue voting for whatever super-leftist-SJW execrable art film POS for actual best picture, year after year after year.

Posted by: Insomniac at August 08, 2018 11:56 PM (NWiLs) ------- If you can't beat 'em, join 'em. My brilliant move was joining a 10-lawyer firm that caters to the Chinese business community. I do little actual client development (other than keeping current ones happy) but my partners (all Chinese except one) bring in a steady stream of new litigation matters. That was 12 years ago, and I never looked back. I'm the Senior Litigation Partner now and I never lack for stuff to do. Chinese businesses and employers are always getting sued. Just dumb luck, but it panned out for me. All I can say is, keep plugging and things will fall into place, Insom. Posted by: Cicero (@cicero) at August 09, 2018 12:04 AM (uSlc8) 528
9th Circuit Effectively Bans New Semi-Auto Handguns
Recently, the California state Supreme Court ruled that an impossible to follow gun law, which required that all new guns be equipped with "stamping" technology that does not actually exist, because complying with it is impossible. Now the 9th Circuit has declared that banning all new semi-auto handguns is spiffy because there's still plenty of used guns around! http://politicalhat.com/?p=14862 Posted by: The Political Hat at August 09, 2018 12:04 AM (itfg0) 529

What's the law say? You get to be the judge and render your decision opinion.
If someone stole your car, and 15 years later you saw a stranger driving it, would you have a legal claim to getting it back? For most cars, you probably wouldn't even care by then. But two parties with claims to a $7 million piece of rolling French art stolen from a Milwaukee garage care a lot, and a court in Wisconsin could decide who gets the vehicle, now being sequestered at an East Coast business after shady export from and return to the U.S. Title can't transfer on stolen property.

Having binge watched like 12 seasons of Forensic Files...
The best one was the first episode. Guy kills wife, freezes the body, rents a wood chipper, dismembers the frozen body with a chain saw, and runs the parts through the wood chipper into a river. The mistakes that convicted him? 1. He scratches the serial numbers off the chainsaw and throws it in the same river as the chipped body parts. (Hint: you can use acid to recover scratched out serial numbers) 2. He had previously filled out and mailed in the warranty card for the chainsaw.

In his fastidiously quantitative book Human Accomplishment, Charles Taylor had Wagner ranked #4 among composers, after only the triumvirate of Beethoven, Mozart, and Bach.
The rankings were based on content analysis of notable encyclopedias on the respective fields. His research found Pablo Picasso (!) the #2 painter after Michelangelo Buonarotti, which to me is far more disturbing. He spent a good number of paragraphs explaining Posted by: logprof at August 09, 2018 12:42 AM (e7oj4) 607

We are not in a time of desperation (in the sense they were), but the left *fantasizes* that they are and I think they are in the process of trying to discover a Hitler than can unite them.

Posted by: boulder t'hobo at August 09, 2018 01:01 AM (N1ZXu) For some reason, I was thinking it was more complicated, like Tartars were Mongols but not all Mongols were Tartars. Per wiki: Historically, the term "Tatars" was applied to anyone originating from the vast Northern and Central Asian landmass then known as the Tartary, which was dominated by various mostly Turco-Mongol semi-nomadic empires and kingdoms. More recently, however, the term refers more narrowly to people who speak one of the Turkic[9] languages. Posted by: Aetius451AD Work Laptop at August 09, 2018 01:04 AM (3FBAK) 686

685 676 weren't tartars, mongols? i think the only dance they knew was the #6
Posted by: boulder t'hobo at August 09, 2018 01:01 AM (N1ZXu) For some reason, I was thinking it was more complicated, like Tartars were Mongols but not all Mongols were Tartars. Per wiki: Historically, the term "Tatars" was applied to anyone originating from the vast Northern and Central Asian landmass then known as the Tartary, which was dominated by various mostly Turco-Mongol semi-nomadic empires and kingdoms. More recently, however, the term refers more narrowly to people who speak one of the Turkic[9] languages.

The point is, people respond to assertiveness and success, whether real or feigned. People are repelled by self-defeatist attitude. Would you want someone helping you who seemed wishy-washy about the prospect of success? I wouldn't. That's the point. You fake it until you make it.

I can relate to the anti-flying sentiment.
And I'm saying this as one who'd earned Lifetime Gold status on Continental... which United subsequently "revised" into "earn it again, bub!" status. Thousand mile thing on the drive/fly equation? Mine is more International or not. In the lower 48, I think I'll opt to drive. I can have all my stuff with me, including arms, and I give NO shits as to NY or NJ or MA considerations thereof. Better to be tried by twelve, than be buried by six, as they say. Alas, they won't let me fly the Boeing 737, or conn the 140,000 gross ton Royal Caribbean Canoe of the Seas. I'll cope, in those circumstances. But I can land a light single plane, and have brought a 70 ft. motoryacht to the dock on more than one occasion. The basics are understood. The MASTERY? Those ATP Pilots and Ships Masters have those ratings for REASONS. Damn shame shit like the TSA fustercluck mess with all those reasons. I'm OK once I'm on the plane with competent aircrew.

That very old thread of Treacher decompensating was a classic but the Trump election victory night was the best thread because of the sheer elation and schadenfreude of the media utterly losing their shit and any pretense of being Unbiased.

I said, "Mom, the guy's a year older than you and look at him! Why don't you get yourself out of your friggin pajamas before noon someday and do something!" AOSHQ. Why I just can't quit it.

...I dug out an even older el-cheapo watch out of a desk drawer, a 1970-something Timex Electric. Stuck a battery in it, didn't run. So I gave it a blast of chlorinated brake cleaner....
We were poor. '76, I'm coming up to graduating High School. Mom, who is terminally ill with a consumptive lung disease, scrapes it ALL up, to buy for me a Class Ring, and a graduation present, an entry-level Seiko watch. The ring, I get. The watch, I get...and a few days later, Mom apologetically begs the watch back. It has busted the budget. Returned to Robinson's in San Diego, for a much less pricey, 1st generation digital watch in Red LED "press the button" configuration. Pity, I didn't know AOP then. 'Cause but a couple years later, that watch committed Seppuki while on duty with the USAF. Nearly concurrent with Mom's succumbing to that terminal illness, and departing this mortal coil. I've owned a watch since then. Once. Haven't since. Jim Sunk New Dawn Galveston, TX Posted by: Jim at August 09, 2018 01:52 AM (QzJWU) 772

Wasn't fun, at 19 y/o, being the Executor of the Estate, and dealing with EVERY thing, all in a 30 day leave. Got it done.

The Islamic connection was begrudgingly mentioned. No mention of the fathers relationship with Linda Siersour (sp) yet thought The story got a quick mention on the local radio news. No mention at all that the asshole was a muslim, which, of course, was my first thought. Posted by: Mary Poppins' Practically Perfect Piercing at August 09, 2018 07:17 AM (kqsXK) 871

The enemy of perfect and all that. My favorite games are the ones where no free cells are required at all. I probably find one of them every 25 games or so. They are the both the easiest and the toughest. Posted by: Forgot My Nic at August 09, 2018 07:18 AM (LOgQ4) 873

Posted by: CrotchetyOldJarhead Anyone check his ID?" Mrs VIA had the TV on. I specifically had an interest in how the story was morphing over time. So when it came on, I focused on it.

I see Rudy is subtly hinting that Trump is going to release the unredacted FISA warrant.
