Sefton: sefton at cutjibnewsletter.com | 20th Anniversary ONTToday is the blog's 20 year anniversary, which is only one of the momentous things that happened on this day in history. ![]() Ten Years Ago One thing social media is good for is posting stories and having everyone get worked up about them without checking to see if they're true, or even recent. Still, this did happen. Woman choked and raped by ex-boyfriend after dispatcher informs her there are no cops to help - and instead tells her to ask attacker to leave A terrified woman from Josephine County, Oregon, dialed 911 to report that her violent ex-boyfriend is trying to break into her home, but in response she was told that there are no officers on duty to help her. The cash-strapped sheriff’s department in the county had been forced to lay off 23 of its 29 deputies after losing millions in federal aid. The remaining six officers had their shifts slashed to eight hours Monday through Friday. Unfortunately for the woman faced with an out-of-control jilted lover, her 911 call came on a Saturday. Eventually, the crazed man forced his way into the house, choked his former girlfriend and raped her without no one there to stop him. The suspect, Michael Bellah, was later arrested and pleaded guilty to kidnapping, assault and sex abuse. Someone posted the 911 call on Twitter, and it's pretty horrific. Someone else reported that the lady had a conviction on her record for drug possession, which is why she couldn't have a gun, but I've seen no confirmation of that. In any event, the article focuses on the residents of the county voting against a tax increase to fund more police and how terrible that is. Well, on one hand, hey, they voted for this, now they have to live with it. On the other hand, I'll bet you a gazillion bucks that that county still fully funds welfare services and diversity officers and school administrators tasked to "support LBGQLMNOP+-* youth". I posted that on Twitter, and the comment got a lot of opinions. 183 likes, a few who were carping on me for being insensitive to trans youth and a couple who thought they had a trump card by telling me the county was strongly Republican. My reply was simple: What difference does that make? I live in what is literally the most Republican city in the country (70%) & we fund all that shit. Government always cuts essential services to justify raising taxes, no one will vote for a tax hike to fund the high school trans club, they will for cops. And that, I think, is the core problem with all levels of government. Fine, a federal grant ended which they had been using to fund police. They have a budget crunch. They have to make cuts or raise taxes. What they WANT to do is raise taxes, but to JUSTIFY that, they make cuts or threaten to make cuts, in essential services, for the simple reason that people will vote to increase taxes for essential services, while almost nobody will vote to raise taxes to fund drag queen story hour at the library or the new playground in the park, the contract for which happens to be held by the mayor's brother. And this poor woman suffered for it. I think there ought to be a mandated hierarchy of expenditures, say, police, fire, EMT, schools, and so on, down to paying for the sign to rename the local dog park after Tits McGee, and municipalities should be required to cut from the bottom up if cuts are needed. Each state could pass its own hierarchy list, and all the municipalities in the state would have to follow it. Tonight's Game Jesse Kelly Trolls The Libs. Again. I like Jesse, but I also realize that he's doing a bit. And he's very funny doing it, moreso when people don't understand the bit and overreact. Republican radio host humiliated after saying Statue of Liberty is American architecture Jesse Kelly, who in 2021 openly speculated that Republicans may soon get tired of "following the rules" and "pick a fascist" to lead the party, posted on Christmas eve that American art and architecture is superior to that of Europe. “People love to sound sophisticated and brag about European art and architecture,” he said Sunday. “I’ve seen America’s and I’ve seen what they’ve got. Theirs can’t touch ours.” Along with that caption, Kelly also included a photo of the Statute of Liberty.He wasn't humiliated, he was laughing his ass off at the libs having kittens. And so were we. It's A Sick, Sick, Sick, Sick World
We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.--That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed, --That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness. Prudence, indeed, will dictate that Governments long established should not be changed for light and transient causes; and accordingly all experience hath shewn, that mankind are more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable, than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed. But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security.In large, large parts of the west, governments no longer exist to serve the needs of their citizens (I know this has always been aspirational and often breached in practice, but it IS the basis of their legitimacy), but to serve the desires of an immoral elite class at the expense of the citizens. This can not continue. It must not. It WILL not. The question now is what form the correction will take. Musical Interlude I love this fan made video. Way better than many “professional” videos for songs. We Have Ways Of Making You Talk The Strange History of Chinese Water Torture Contrary to popular belief, Chinese water torture was most likely not invented in Asia. Gotta Catch 'Em All (With A Fishing Pole) After 3,000 Hours, A Pet Fish Has Completed ‘Pokémon Ruby’ Following an incredibly innovative and interesting experiment, a pet fish has completed Pokémon Ruby, sinking more than 3,000 hours into the game. How? So, Mutekimaru (that's the name of the fish) swims in a tank that has a grid displayed on the back of the aquarium. The squares on the grid are attributed to a button, i.e. A, B, up, down, left and right. A tracking camera follows the fish's movements, and when it moves from one square to another, the command is sent to a circuit board, which then inputs Mutekimaru's actions into Pokémon Ruby.I'm going to remember this next time I'm playing Pokemon and feeling pleased with my performance.

Josephine County is Grants Pass and a lot of smaller towns off the I-5. They used to have mills and industry, and then the state and the Feds closed the forests and all the jobs went away.
It was known for meth, traditionally. A lot of rural Oregon is like that. There used to be money in timber and milling and paper and farming. Now there is a lot of meth. Posted by: Kindltot at December 28, 2023 10:13 PM (D7oie) 46

123 I used to feel a certain empathy for Cleese, because the old fool married his much younger therapist, and (suhprise! suhprise!) she divorced him fast & got a big chunk of his life savings.
As a result, he came out of retirement, from doing live performances, to do his self-described "Alimony Tour." So... F him especially. Go marry another 30-something psychotherapist, Cleese. Give that idea one more chance! Posted by: mnw I'd have to check but I believe Cleese has a collection of ex-wives now. After a certain number of failed marriages, you'd think a little self-reflection would be in order. Guess not.

Somebody had a big 2022 2400BH Grand Design Imagine travel trailer parked in a locked lot in Portland. In the back, under the "Imagine" logo, they had the words "diversity", "equality", "kindness", "love", "inclusion", "love", "peace", "respect", "equality" (with representational figures for letters), and, of course, the "In Our America" BLM sticker, which ends with "Diversity Is Celebrated". Well, some methheads stole the trailer, and it's been seen being towed by a ratty old truck without license plates. It's a palace by methhead RV standards.

Congrats on 20 years! My post-9/11 internet blog dependence was still strong when I first found AOSHQ. Maybe I found it via DRUDGE, or the equally now-banished Hot Air, I don’t recall. For some time there was a consistent smattering of cheerleader photos relating to weekly football news. My wife hated that and this informed her ongoing view of AOS. Whenever I’d answer her about what I was reading and I’d reply, Ace of Spades, she’d say, “Oh, the cheerleader site.” Even years after those photos ended she’s still saying that. Even when she asks me where I am getting the cute animal videos I text her and I say Ace of Spades, she still hits me with her patented tag line. Only since this October have I commented perhaps 4 times. That said, I hope this smart military blog continues for a long time.

The rape / assault in the top story happened out in Cave Junction, which is pretty remote and seldom patrolled by even the state police. It's the last town of any size on Hwy 199 on the way to Crescent City, CA.

Pardon my movie post...
Watched Return To Oz tonight. Last time I saw this I was in...freakin'...elementary school, I think. Maybe towards the end so...early 90s? Anyway... I liked it! It's a Disney production. I know, I know...*spit*...but it's wonderfully charming. Fairuza Balk, probably best known for playing the main antagonist in 1996's The Craft, does a fine job playing Dorothy Gale. Seriously big slippers to fill and she did I admirably. The film is...weird. It came at a time just before family films were stripped of all sense of scariness, danger and dread. It gets pretty dark and there's just so much that's kind of weird. But I think that's what makes it so charming. But it's a quality family films lack which is such a shame. Kids need these things in their stories. It's such a mistake to think they lack the intellectual and emotional depth and the maturity to handle heavy moments or themes. The film is also fun to look at. Set and creature designs are memorable. Tik-Tok, the mechanical soldier, is just cool. Anyway, for nine bucks it's an easy recommendation.

Okey NURSE RICHARD here...NARCAN is an Opiate "Antagonist" meaning it counteracts the opiate effects. So if you use a NARCAN (SPRAY) on an Opiate OVERDOSE..it will wake them up. But they still have to go to an ER as the effects are short lasting and they need further treatment. Merry Christmas Posted by: Nightwatch at December 29, 2023 12:06 AM (TDvv2) 405
When I was in the hospital a couple of nurses set it down, said the pain killer would naturally circulate. A couple of others used just enough to push it into the tube - maybe an 8th.

Could a prohibited person still obtain a crossbow? I would think that would be a pretty good defensive weapon for women at "house range" distances.

Eureka/Humboldt County, CA, which is about 100 miles south of the Oregon border -- and which has California's 2nd-largest natural bay -- used to have a serious logging industry -- lots of old growth redwood and such. Eureka itself has some gorgeous Victorian architecture, lots of outdoor/wildlife stuff, cool weather year round, and even a university (yeah, yeah). But now while it still has some gorgeous Victorian architecture, lots of outdoor/wildlife stuff, cool weather year round, and even a university, it has very little logging and there really isn't much industry at all if you don't count meth manufacturing, illegal marijuana grows, and probably illegal distilling. Lots of crime. Sad. Otherwise, what with remote work and such, I'd otherwise consider moving up there. Now, nope.

I'm trying to convince them to start growing good corn again rather than the crap that's used for ethanol.. Posted by: Joe Kidd at December 29, 2023 01:23 AM (NAi0z) 467

Okay, I just tried to donate to this blog and it wouldn't go through, kept asking for a valid amount and set the wayback machine to 2004. Could someone enlighten me??

And we can't talk about it in the comments section at the S.F. Chronicle because the S.F. Chronicle got rid of the comments sections. Posted by: SFGoth ============= I read SFGate verrrrrrry intermittently and I can't tell if it has a bias. It gives wild and woolly vibes. Their cutting off comments seems like they don't want readers to join in the fun.

Posted by: Blonde Morticia's phone SFGate and S.F. Chronicle are different. SFGate is really more of an advertising vehicle with "articles". The Chronicle is the actual newspaper of longstanding vintage. Posted by: SFGoth at December 29, 2023 01:53 AM (KAi1n) 474
I first commented at aos in 2004 from a link at LMAO. It was to a vid of a near miss of a pedestrian by two cars that just collided. One car did a flip over the head of the pedestrian who was crossing the street .

----------------- Debby, I used a week ago with no problems. Click PayPal button. You go to PP Checkout page. Enter amount of donation in "price per item" box. Click continue. IIRC, Next page is sign in to PP or pay by CC (if you don't have account) I entered CC info. Checked billing address same as shipping address. UNchecked box for creating PP account. Then finished transaction. Posted by: olddog in mo at December 29, 2023 03:40 AM (ju2Fy) 484

Your Kaboom piece is the funniest thing I ever read on the internet. Could you repost your interview with Buck Dharma from Blue Oyster Cult from your podcast days? Posted by: Michael Puttre at December 29, 2023 07:40 AM (eKMtd) 488
>>>He got plenty of push back, but nobody said it better than this Anon on 4-chan:
The 4-chan post looks to be dated to 06/02/19(Sun) No.215129279; versus the Cleese tweet that's dated to Dec 27, 2023. So it's on-target, no question about that, but not strictly in response to the Cleese tweet? Posted by: m at December 29, 2023 08:21 AM (4UYlo) Processing 0.08, elapsed 0.0888 seconds. |
