3 Good Morning Morons. Today is Saturday Dec 19th. On this day in history Vice President of the United States John C. Calhoun penned the South Carolina Exposition and Protest, protesting the Tariff of 1828. This was called the Tariff of Abominations in the South because it placed high tarriffs on incoming goods from Europe to help Northern manufactoring but raised the prices on goods in the South and made it harder for the South to export agricultural poducts to Europe. And to rub salt in the wounds the income from these tariffs was being spent on capital projects in the North. These un-holy tariffs came close to the South leaving the union 50 years earlier than they did and continued to be an isssue right up until the Civil War.

15 Republicans ties the last $1T coronacrap extravaganza to the budget limit for spending thus blocking the bill (which we don't need). This coronacrap spending is just giving the communists an excuse to push their unlimited socialist spending they have wanted since FDR.

Wow:

The New York Times has a massive egg on its face as a prize-winning audio series has collapsed under a weight of falsehoods. . .

Times executive editor Dean Baquet confessed to NPR media reporter David Folkenflik that the appeal of getting a "terrorist" to talk was too tempting:

"We fell in love with the fact that we had gotten a member of ISIS who would describe his life in the caliphate and would describe his crimes," Baquet said. "I think we were so in love with it that when we saw evidence that maybe he was a fabulist, when we saw evidence that he was making some of it up, we didn't listen hard enough."

Interesting word choice.
Think I see the problem. . .

Back in my stay at home mom days when we were always scrimping to get by, I did a 'pie of the month' for my brother and his family. Made up a calendar where we'd get together on a Sunday afternoon once a month, and I'd bring homemade pies. It was great fun!

Mlii -- It's always there. Guess which one is what they said:

A. The red and black theme -- "It's a pretty depressing and not very Christmas-y hall if you ask me, but it doesn't look like a horror movie this time, which is a plus."

B. The theme of America the Beautiful ". . .is somehow incredibly bland and extremely tone deaf all at once."

C. "In the war on Christmas, she is General Lee."

142 The Supreme Court ruling is AGAINST Trump. They should have ruled for him; anything else is unjust and disenfranchises huge numbers of states, as did the recent non-ruling ruling on Texas et.al, But Roberts is playing politics and preferring to try to trick the base. The idea is to not rule, so it doesn't become a case (just as refusing to even hear Texas prevented any evidence from making the official record).

Fox Coups is lying and supporting the backstab. For the record, Fox is so bad that the story from NPR [!] is much much better.

I'm sorry to have missed Ace's thread about Fatman last night. His commentary on movies is usually spot on: He thinks not only about the movie, but how it's told, and how it fits (or doesn't) within its genre and within movies as a species of entertainment.

TheJamesMadison, I know you do that too. I just don't get to join in on your movie threads on Saturday nights very often.

215 Full serenity prayer

This always get truncated when people quote it because the first part up to "know the difference" is used by 12 step programs-which depends on a "higher power" not necessarily God or Jesus, but the whole thing is great for people of religious faith:

God grant me the serenity to accept the
things I cannot change; Courage to change the things I can; and wisdom to know the difference.

Living one day at a time; Enjoying one moment at a time; Accepting hardships as the pathway to peace; Taking as He did, this sinful world As it is, not as I would have it; Trusting that He will make all things right If I surrender to His Will; So that I may be reasonably happy in this life and supremely happy with Him forever in the next.

Amen

I once got busy in a Burger King bathroom
Lyrics
All right, stop whatcha doin'
'Cause I'm about to ruin
The image and the style that ya used to
I look funny
But yo I'm makin' money, see
So yo world I hope you're ready for me
Now gather round
I'm the new fool in town
And my sound's laid down by the Underground
I drink up all the Hennessey ya got on ya shelf
So just let me introduce myself
My name is Humpty, pronounced with a Umpty
Yo ladies, oh how I like to funk thee
And all the rappers in the top ten-please allow me to bump thee
I'm steppin' tall, y'all
And just like Humpty Dumpty
You're gonna fall when the stereos pump me
I like to rhyme, I like my beats funky
I'm spunky, I like my oatmeal lumpy
I'm sick wit dis, straight gangsta mack
But sometimes I get ridiculous
I'll eat up all your crackers and your licorice
Hey yo fat girl, c'mere-are ya ticklish
Yeah, I called ya fat
Look at me, I'm skinny
It never stopped me from gettin' busy
I'm a freak
I like the girls with the boom
I once got busy in a Burger King bathroom
I'm crazy
Allow me to amaze thee
They say I'm ugly but it just don't faze me
I'm still gettin' in the girls' pants
And I even got my own dance

The Humpty Dance is your chance to do the hump
Do the Humpty Hump
Come on and do the Humpty Hump"

Okay, first off, these vaccines are NOT the mark of the beast.
They are at most a possible precursor.
To receive the mark you will have to worship the beast and it will not happen until the second half of the 70th week of Daniel.
That 2nd half will be kicked off when the anti-christ steps into the Holy of Holies in a rebuilt temple, where animal sacrifices have resumed, and declares himself God and demands worship.

Secondly, after having been incredibly blessed to be born into this country and after everything PDJT has done for us when he could have just lived out his life wherever and however he wanted, that so many here are so ready to just roll over and play dead is, in PDJT terms, sad.

The idea of a doctorate is that the work documented in the thesis shows that the awardee is capable of undertaking original research and will be pursuing same. Jill got one for ticket punching and a status symbol, using a field where standards are, to put it politely, not rigorous. That and her insistence on being called "Doctor" are what makes her ridiculous.

My roomie after college was a teacher. One day he confessed to me that in all the dogshit education classes he took that he didn't know how to do percentages. I told him that's ok because they teach it in the most retarded way possible and I taught myself how to do it and would now do the same for him. He wasn't dumb so the Dr. Hate 15 minute crash course was very effective; plus he knew I'd call him an idiot if the light didn't go on.

304 Three quarters of the class will be Caucasian; one quarter of the class will be African American; one seat will hold a Latino; and the remaining seats will be filled with students of Asian descent or non-resident aliens.

Other than the maths being an indicator of an unintelligent mind, look at the arbitrary distinctions made in the demographics.

One could, in theory, if using a Venn diagram make this New Maths work out.

For example: "Caucasian". I seriously do not believe that three quarters of the population are from Iran or the Caucasus region of Western Asia. If she is using it in the discontinued technical form, then it also includes all of Western Asia, Europe, parts of North Africa and India.

Then she uses "African-American" which is a non-technical, political word (official documents use the term "Black") that is utter nonsense and simply is a very stupid way of saying "dark skin, but not Australian Aboriginal, Indian or mixed Latin" because very few in her classification is native of Africa.

"Asian descent". Would that include Middle Easterners? Russians? India? Pakistani? people literally from the Caucasus Region?

In other words, her selection of demographic distinctives are in no way consistent with itself let alone used by any competent demographer.

How on earth could she source or document that statement? Pure conjecture.

That's the headline today but the real story will turn out to be that the Fox News executive who was was talking to Papadopoulos knew the FBI was recording his conversations with the Trump team.

The 3 toughest class I took were Marketing Statistics, Retail Locations, and Marketing Decisions.

Decisions was a Harvard style class where problem was presented to team and you went away for 3 weeks then came back to make presentation.

343 Wuhan Hack... Chinese hackers were considered sophisticated back in 2009... And why not??? We've been training their cyber warriors at Stanford, UCLA, MIT, etc... If they began in March, we would have been too busy with the Wuhan Flu to handle two crisis simultaneously... I'm not buying the Russian Hack BS...

Plus, WTF was Chrstopher Krebs, CISA head during those 9 months? What did he have his thumb up?

350 Good mornin' y'all!!!!!! Rainy and warm here in East Texas.
My boss tested positive for the plague. He reported it to the safety guy and our crew is banned from working until January 1. Job site is Sheppard Air Force Base. I'll lose at least one weeks pay.
On a good note, my job interview yesterday went pretty good. Over an hour with 3 of the 4 owners. I received a text half hour after I left requesting a follow up on Wednesday.
After the interview I had lunch with my former coworker who served in the army for over twenty years. True friend and brother. Always supportive and positive attitude. That is something that I miss on a daily basis.
Today I'll start a new book. "Monsters of River and Rock" by Adrian Smith. Maybe mess with garage band a bit.
Sorry for the novel of a post. I don't have many friends anymore. At least not many I really trust. I hang out here and you all have no idea how much I enjoy the articles and especially the comment section.
Thank you. Carry on.

The guys at Harvard Lampoon who did Bored later founded National Lampoon and did Doon, so there is a tie-in.

354 What is it in this damn climate with the insects? Yesterday I spotted (and I hope I killed) a small roach crawling across my windshield. The inside, mind you. Just now a large ant, you know, the kind that look like they should be invading Charlton Heston's plantation in The Naked Jungle, just strolled across my laptop keyboard. I hope I got him too.

Of course, I live in a swamp of a city. That could explain it.

The Doon paperback has "National Lampoon" emblazoned on it. And the writing styles of Bored and Doon are very, and wonderfully, similar.

366 Good morning Horde!

I got Fatman last night, but there was a problem with Amazon. It kept crashing. I tried to restart, hoping that would help, but the load screen still flashed a message in German and it kept crashing. Never saw that before. Never had issues with Amazon streaming. Maybe we can watch it today.

What else. Oh. Costco trip today! I like staring at pallets of Ramen and Spam in my apocalypse garb. I am thinking about making a 150 mg edible and eating that before we head out to make it possible to really immerse myself in a prequel to the Last of Us vibe.

I am now number 18 on the wait list at the library for the latest Jack Reacher novel. I am number 22 for the new Preston and Child novel. Win by Harlan Coben comes out soon. March, maybe? I am number 1248 for that one. I will probably splurge for my own hardback copy. What are they these days, thirty bucks or so?

Our first Christmas break jigsaw puzzle is spread out and awaiting assembly.

I have all of this going for me and more, which is nice.

Now to read the comments. Have a great day everyone.
