Friday Overnight Open Thread CDR-MLess Edition

Friday ont.jpg

CDR M is in hiding. So, little 'rons & 'ettes you get the Junior Varsity B Team tonight.

Happy Friday The 13th. Everything you wanted to know about Friday the 13th. (Well, not everything. C'mon and play along)


friday ont.png

Speaking of Friday the 13th. Quite the flight.

Ladies and gentlemen, this is your captain speaking. Welcome aboard the most metal flight of your lives. Let’s do some sky crimes.

Finnair flight AY666 has, according to the Daily Mail, become something of a running joke for several reasons. Along with pentagrams and images of Baphomet, 666 is, of course, associated with Satanism. And several times a year, AY666 just happens to fly on Friday the 13th.

Today’s extra-unlucky flight also happened to be nonstop from Copenhagen to Helsinki. Or as ticket-holders would have seen it written: CPH->HEL.

Quote of The Day

quote of the day .jpg

*****

You're going to get a new radio system whether you want it or not. Norway ditches FM.

FM is being run out of town by Digital Audio Broadcasting, which is cheaper and, supporters say, offers more reliable sound quality. It also has room for more channels, and better lends itself to things like broadcast archiving.

But there are some holes in the new system, too—on the user side. Most cars aren’t equipped with DAB radios, and adaptors can be expensive. A recent poll found that only 17 percent of those surveyed supported the switch. “It’s completely stupid, I don’t need any more channels than I’ve already got,” Oslo resident Eivind Sethov told AFP.

It's nice to see Nannyism as a global concept. Bless their hearts that they are looking out for the common man.


A funny thing happened between the faculty lounge and the private sector office. Diversity and reality do not mix.

We live in a soft age where women run most things so that means we live in a careless age as well. All sorts of silly and ridiculous things are indulged because the margin for error seems endless. You can make up a bunch of silly diversity rules, for example, on the college campus, because little serious work is done on the college campus. Most of what is done is busy work. In the areas where serious work is done, like the hard sciences, you see very little of the PC nonsense we associate with the academy.


The ONT Musical Interlude

In honor of Norway, take it away Steely Dan.


*****


The "Father of Relativity" could have been President of Israel. Here is why he turned the position down.

However, Einstein turned the offer down, insisting that he — the man whose last name is synonymous with “genius” — was not qualified. He also cited old age, inexperience, and insufficient people skills as reasons why he wouldn’t be a good choice. (Imagine, someone turning down a presidency based on a lack of experience, old age, and an inability to deal properly with people.)

Something tells The ONT that his skills were a plus and not a negative.


A Friday night favorite. Take it away puppies.


Receipts. There are several ways they are important. This one makes a statement.

Well, it’s time to once again use this superlative because consumers in California get the “best-ever receipt” when they make purchases at Firearms Unknown. Here’s the example that’s gone viral, and I’ve highlighted the relevant portion that gives an amusing description of California’s onerous sales tax.


What culture was appropriated? The ONT is not sure, but it looks fun.


Pot, guns, kids, pregnant woman and tape = Genius Award Runner Up


Diving? Try water instead of a squad car windshield. Genius Award.

A kid who cares about his friends. The Feel Good Story of The Day.

Tonight's ONT has been brought to you by Honesty.

11 The Resistance: Because Once Again Dissent Is Considered Patriotic

When George W. Bush was President, dissent was the highest for of Patriotism. After Barack Obama was elected, dissent quickly became not only treasonous, but also racist. Now that the President will soon again be affiliated with the doubleplusungood Republicans, not only is dissent patriotic again, but outright "resistance" is praised by all the Leftist virtue signalers out there.

64 My mom called while I was visiting Pooky and wanted to know if she could bring Pookette back to me tomorrow (insert eyeroll here). I said no, I'm not mentally ready for that, and even when she pushed it, I stood my ground. Pooky is doing better every day. His therapists have pushed him to ask for an apology from me and he has realized that what he did was pretty traumatic for me. He has seen Pookette on videocall more than once now, and it makes her day every time. We're getting there, slowly but surely.

Fantastic album, especially the opening track "Don't Run Wild," and the LP also always seemed especially well-mastered.

98 Evening, everyone.

I had a lunch date today. We'd been chatting online and by text for a few weeks, but the universe kept throwing up roadblocks to actually meeting, so it was nice to finally chat in person. She's 5'1", blonde, and conservative. In SoCal.

I know that the ONT has at times been a forum for discussing the woes of one's dating life, but if I can get a date then there's hope for the rest of you miscreants.

103 I used to read the Z man because Gerard Vanderleun at American Digest linked to some of his posts. I bailed when teh Z outed himself as just one more dyspeptic old coot. I don't know where he gets the idea that "women run most things." Not on my campus, they don't. There are plenty of "silly and ridiculous things" that go on all the time, to be sure, but the great majority are dreamed up, promulgated, and defended by male administrators, including the current president. And the silliness is present in some of the so-called hard sciences departments as well, including the medical school.

I bought a Fender Mustang II V2, not a tube amp, a combo module(?). It's pretty technologically beyond me, but I'll do some research tomorrow and figure out how to work it.
Today I basically plugged in the guitar and played while changing some of the presets to see how they sounded. I was pretty stoked.

197 168 goon: Steely Dan refused to tour or play live for a long time, which I think was at least partially because the band didn't want to have to try to perform their songs as expertly as they had in the studio.
Posted by: qdpsteve

When you're used to having an average of 30 or 40 session musicians, it's hard to recreate that vibe. Add to that Becker & Fagen are know neurotic perfectionists with stagefright...

I remember when I first saw them live at Meriwether Post Pavillion on their first (re)tour. I was probably the youngest guy there.
Walking out to the parking lot afterwards, I was on clouds. I couldn't stop saying "I got to see The Dan LIVE! I can die a happy man now" - all the old people around me just laughed and patted me on the back.

211 Random Del Firefox update

I believe the lead singer (Mike?) now hosts an addiction show on local radio here in Boston, after substance abuse issues in the 80s. Show is on on weekend afternoons, though I have not heard it in a while. He also runs what sounds like a halfway house for addicts with an artistic,music bent. Sounds like a pretty good guy but a huge lib (what is the government going to DO?)

I had that album, loved "Don't Run Wild" they were huge here back in the day. Now if anyone can just dig up vinyl copies of "Life Sucks" by the Fools, "88 Lines About 44 Women" by the Nails and the album Sanctuary by J Geils Band.....

I wanted to share some good news I unexpectedly got a couple of days ago when I was told "the boss wants to see you in his office". Yeah, I know "good news" and the boss wanting to see you don't normally go together.
The boss told me to sit down...then he handed me a check. He said, "this is for the hard work you do around here. I wish it could have been more."

That was nice, but what really got to me was that the bonus I got...was supposed to be his. He sells advertising like almost everyone else here except me, and instead of keeping it, he gave it to me.

It came in handy as it allowed me to get some groceries and provisions in anticipation of the potential Icemageddon. Divine intervention? Your mileage may vary, but I think it was.

272 Tammy, I remember one of the big things in the mid-1980s was "roots rock," which also encompassed "Latin Rock."

Los Lobos, Cruzados, and I think a few others whose names I can't remember. Still a fan of Lobos, wouldn't mind getting to see them today (although I fear half their stuff these days would be anti-Trump).

279 QDP-Agree. Back in the day we had a terrific radio scene here in Boston-especially WBCN who played a lot of local bands, which was lucky as at the time there were a lot of good ones-J Geils,, Til Tuesday, Del Feugos, Aerosmith was also still around (they are still around 30 years later). WBCN was one of first radio stations to play U2 here in the US-being Irish, they had a ibig big following...

There was also 2 big classic and heavy metal stations and another alternative too, and the college radio stations. All gone. I think WBCN is all sports now.

So much good music in the 80s. Now, auto tune, blech.

East Berlin was not quite like Cuba. The only difference really is that Eastern Berlin had not been our ally before being controlled by communists.
While I understand people are trying to be ideologically consistent by not allowing "V.I.P." immigration status, the reality is the dems will find a way around such a banishment.
Besides, Syrian refugees have no real claim to refugee status like Cubans do.

360 Steve and Cold Bear, re "New Frontier":

I give Donald Fagen a lot of credit for doing a song about the 1950s, that wasn't a bunch of cheap put-downs of the era like so many other rockers had done. He actually was looking back with fondness at the belief in "progress" that existed then.

371 So, cleaning house a bit today, looking for a couple
books, I found a cheap bag of "just add water" cornbread mix I forgot I
bought for New Year's (yes I have books scattered everywhere - sue
me).



Anyway, I opened a can of corn, mashed it with a potato masher,
added some sugar, an egg and a bit of Chipotle powder, and am now
"snacking" - this shit is dangerous.

Slathered in butter, and then I remembered the pepper jelly my Sis gave me for Christmas.

Oh Lord, I may eat the entire loaf...

Posted by: Chi at January 13, 2017 10:45 PM (zc45R)

If you just buy the cornmeal it's cheaper. And baked in a cast iron skillet.
You can take a few tablespoons of butter to melt over the whole pan when you pull it out of the oven. Then add MOAR BUTTER.

Warren Haynes is amazing. I remember seeing a show where he was headlining, and the opening act was called something like "5 guys names Moe." I think they abbreviated that somehow. Anyway, all their songs were about the same, sort of building in the same way, not quite finding the groove, but frenetically iterating as though it were there somehow. Then Warren came out to play with them, hitting the chords of "Feelin' Allright" and turned them into an amazing band. It was every bit as good as the legendary SNL Stuff/Joe Cocker rendition, maybe somewhat better.

presidency based on a lack of experience, old age, and an inability to
deal properly with people.)

"... I will
only say that I have, with good intentions, contributed towards the
organization and administration of the government the best exertions of
which a very fallible judgment was capable. Not unconscious in the
outset of the inferiority of my qualifications, experience in my own
eyes, perhaps still more in the eyes of others, has strengthened the
motives to diffidence of myself; and every day the increasing weight of
years admonishes me more and more that the shade of retirement is as
necessary to me as it will be welcome. Satisfied that if any
circumstances have given peculiar value to my services, they were

I say this as someone who has always loved their music, but also likes heavy metal.

Jefferson Airplane/Jefferson Starship was at its best as a band, IMO, when they became Jefferson Starship and finally allowed their founder Marty Balin to have some control over their direction. That dude could work some serious magic with a soft love ballad!

Cheap bastards too....would fight you for a nickel out in the street. They all looked like young Santa...blonde, kinda fat and bearded. All the wives had that hard lesbian look, skinny with cropped hair and bad teeth. Anyways, this was in Lantana, Florida which is a shit hole but is full of Finns and no one knows why. Their big thing was to have dances at the Finnish Hall and boast about how they kicked Russia's ass in 1940. Old black and white pictures in the dance hall of all the Finnish Army heroes all looking unhappy and cold and lots of dead Russians sprinkled in. Finns sounds a lot like Japs when they talk in that you can't make out any of it, it's real sing song shit. Anyways, Finland is a strange land full of strange people but in a good way.

Posted by: Tammy al-Thor at January 13, 2017 11:41 PM (kqtMD)


Completely. He's a quintessential band member. They say that there are around 100 guitarists who could be recognized in their style in a very short time. I'm sure you could name a lot of them, and most people could. Jimi, Prince, Eddie, Jerry, and so on. I remember switching channels back when music was on television and hearing three seconds of a song I'd never heard, and knowing that this was one of those guitarists (it was John Fogarty). Warren is not one of those. But he's a player whose presence can make a band that would seem like so much less without him.

541 Hot Tuna is Jack and Jorma , essentially.

I don't think they ever pinned down a drummer for long term...Dave Bromburg and Pap John also played with them.

But it is really just Jorma and Jack doing their thing. And whether it's acoustic or electric, it's awesome stuff.

542 "Of course, they were desperate for money at the
time. I've read they had one of the original all-time worst record
contracts ever.

Posted by: qdpsteve"

They originally signed with Shel Talmy, but soon soured of him. Unfortunately, they were stuck in a contract and had to go through quite a bit of legal wrangling. (This is when the song "A Legal Mater" was written by Pete, although in songs case, it's written about a fictitious canceled marriage)

In the settlement, Talmy ended up getting a very large chunk of the next several albums (Including Tommy and Who's Next), without having to lift a finger.

They came within an ace of not even being a band at all. Iommi showed up at Ozzy's house with Bill Ward, because of a flyer Ozzy had put up in a music store offering to do vocals (and he had his own PA system). He'd known Ozzy from school, and didn't care for him, They turned to leave when Ozzy happened to mention that Iommi's fingertips were missing from his left hand (cut off in accident in his last day of work with a sheet metal bender). So they ended up talking some more, and decided to give it a go. Ozzy was friends with Butler, who at the time was playing rhythm guitar, but they asked him to switch to bass and he turned out to be an excellent bass player.

ship them to Finland for what I never figured out but they made tons of
cash. Cheap bastards too....would fight you for a nickel out in the
street. They all looked like young Santa...blonde, kinda fat and
bearded. All the wives had that hard lesbian look, skinny with cropped
hair and bad teeth. Anyways, this was in Lantana, Florida which is a
shit hole but is full of Finns and no one knows why. Their big thing was
to have dances at the Finnish Hall and boast about how they kicked
Russia's ass in 1940. Old black and white pictures in the dance hall of
all the Finnish Army heroes all looking unhappy and cold and lots of
dead Russians sprinkled in. Finns sounds a lot like Japs when they talk
in that you can't make out any of it, it's real sing song shit. Anyways,

Last summer, when "The Revenge of Vera Gemini" came on the radio, I actually drove around the block a couple of times until the song was over. I had completely forgotten that song, and again, it's not one you hear on the radio that much.

It's an irritating thing - so many good songs from the '60's and '70's that they never play around here and yet it seems like "More than a feeling" and "Hotel California" are playing every damn time I turn on the radio.

647 #574: Tony Iomme invented heavy metal because of those missing fingertips. He was the guitarist for the blues-rock band that would eventually become Black Sabbath, but because they hadn't become a raging success yet he had to keep his day job in that machine shop.

After he lost his fingertips in that accident, he should've been finished as a guitarist by all rights. But he refused to give up on his dream. He tried stringing his guitar with violin strings, which are softer than "proper" guitar strings, and he invented a slower, heavier, more plodding way of playing the guitar that worked well with his handicap.

He brought his band together to show off the new style of playing that he'd discovered, and they decided that they could indeed work with it.

That's how heavy metal was invented.

648 MH, you are "bringing it" with ONTs, dude. It's just true.


I think Firearms Unknown must be an offshoot/side-effect/former people from Ares Armor, an 80% lower AR pioneer that got into it with the ATF (don't know the merits on that one). I heard a radio ad for them today, while reloading (my, how evil, and scary, is that?). Ares had internal turmoil and a break-up of some sort.


One day before that, on my range duty day, two guys came in and wanted to open a small pistol range just to function-test ARs. So I went with them and the senior guy shot 3 rounds through about 40 ARs of various configurations. Got his card, but I think the original outfit is defunct after the falling out, and he is probably one of the fall-ees.

661 Note: this is not one of MY typically over-long comments, but a re-post of the last comment in the previous thread. Libertarianwannabe had said she was widowed, had been advised to arm herself, and was seeking advice. This comment - from "whig" - lurker, perhaps? - is just outstanding.


So, as a public service to any ONT lurkers looking to buy their first firearm, here is whig's solid advice:


"For those of you new shooters looking to get firearms, a bit of advice.

Try to find a range that both gives basic firearm familiarization and rents different handguns to try. Handguns are better than they used to be but to accurately shoot and handle one, it needs to fit your hand in a specific way. A handgun that does not fit your hands results in problems in accuracy and control or in basic operation of the handgun.

Next, figure out do you want an all purpose home and carry outside of the home firearm? Do you want a different firearm for carry versus home?

Third, stick to a boring reputable brand--Glocks, Smith and Wessons, Rugers, Sig Sauer, Springfield XD's, all produce reasonably priced firearms with decent warranties. Many of these can be acquired in great shape second hand but take someone experienced if you do this or do your homework first.

Beware of the mall ninja, either behind the gun store counter, or online who may recommend expensive, inappropriate, or downright ineffective firearms for your purposes.

I would suggest reading some books by a few of the following trainers--Massad Ayoob, Gun Digest Guide's to Combat Handgunnery, 6th edition among others of his, and John Farnam's books on handguns and longarms. Paxton Quigley has some useful books for women, specifically. If you like revolvers, then check out Grant Cunningham. Gun Digest, in particular, has a large number of instructional books on firearms that are reasonably priced.

Last, realistically determine how much training that you are willing to do and your physical abilities. For most, longarms such as rifles and shotguns are easier for beginners to shoot accurately and operate. Usually, they are also more lethal than many handguns. Handguns though are portable as carrying longarms concealed is impractical.

Guns are no magic talismans to ward off evil, they require a certain amount of training to optimize your chances and to prevent self-injury. Range time on a regular basis is necessary and training by qualified instructors at the beginning can prevent bad habits from forming. Don't leave out learning about the gun laws in your state and locality, particularly those on self defense.

There are a lot of forums around that cater to shooters and almost all are willing to lend a hand to answer questions from new shooters. My personal favorite is The High Road because civility is a big issue there but others have their advantages as well.

Good luck."


(his favorite gun blog, The High Road, is also my favorite - the reloading section alone was like an interactive college course that got me going when I first started)

Oh, it was bad. He did some really great early stuff with The Bob Seger System ('Come to Poppa' is amazing) but the radio just ruined him in the 80's and 90's. They never play the really old stuff, which is too bad.

In the last ten years or so, he's kind of been replaced by Kid Rock, who is a VERY solid conservative. Plus he's got this hysterical song they actually play here (edited of course) called "You Never Met a MotherF*cker Quite Like Me. "

736 Here's a Friday the 13th rumor I had heard growing up and I've always wondered if anyone else had.

My family got our first computer sometime in the early 90's. It was just a DOS system, no Windows and no internet. My dad didn't want us to use the Computer on Friday the 13th because he had heard that some programmers might have inserted a virus into computers that if they were run on Friday 13th then it would wipe everything off the computer.

Anyone else ever heard of this?

Posted by: buzzion at January 14, 2017 12:35 AM (cAnNx)

737 I've heard an interesting theory that demonization of the number 13 runs deep, deep into prehistory, and it is centered on the very earliest calendars. A solar based calendar appears to have been first developed in ancient Egypt, and given that there are 365 days to a year, it's quite natural to divide that into 12 periods of 30 days each, with 5 days left over for feasting and religious holidays.

However, use of the lunar calendar appears to go back much deeper in time, and since a lunar month is only 28 days, this gives each year 13 months.

The story is that when the solar calendar, with 12 months was developed and associated with the Sun God Ra, the older method of using a lunar calendar was deemed to be a tool of darkness and evil, and in opposition to the official State Religion. (and to Pharaoh, who was believed to be the incarnation of Ra) This wasn't hard since the 28 day cycle is associated with fertility, and sex, and all kinds of things that go on in the dark. (suggesting that the religious castes then treated sex in about the same way that religious castes today feel about it)

The number 13, as the symbol of the now heretical lunar calendar, became the symbol of evil and darkness. Lending support to this view is the parallel belief that all kinds of nefarious things can happen at any full moon. The moon, and worship of it. became the province of darkness and evil and nasty, dirty sex; worship of the Sun seized the position of Light, and Purity, and Chastity.

Humans being what we are, ever since then the vast majority of us have allowed ourselves to be ruled by the Greater Light by day, but by the Lesser Light at night.

I've seen a bunch of his live shows. They're pretty well put together-- not giant technical extravaganzas, but just the right amount of technology. I highly recommend them.

He's funy in person, and comes across as a really nice guy; the shows actually make you personally like him. He's also VERY supportive of Michigan and the armed services-- at the end of one of his shows to years ago, he brought the guy (Seal? Ranger? I forget) who killed Bin Laden on stage and he got a standing ovation.

/what I'm saying is that I'm pretty sure he can be bathed, shaved and put in grown up clothes and he'd be OK.

761 #735: I have a couple of fun facts about her, too!

The song Manic Monday was written by Prince! He wanted to lure Hoffs away from the Bangles, to be his protege and lover like so many other female musicians of the time had been.

Also! When the Bangles recorded the album version of Eternal Flame, Susanna Hoffs was naked. Their agent had worked worked with Olivia Newton-John, and he told Susanna that Olivia always sang her soft love ballads that way, for added emotional vulnerability. Susanna fell for it, and got naked to record Eternal Flame.

When I read about that, I thought, "Wow... I have a new hero, and I don't even know his name."

Oh I'm sure he bathes, his problem is that his hair is too fine so it looks dirty all the time and he's not hairy enough to carry off facial hair so the overall look is just dirty and unkempt rather than Badass.

But I heart him tremendously.

They regularly make a last minute "security fee" that the organization putting it on has to pay. They do it last minute and give them limited time to pay it.

Its not a real security fee because as has happened many times the security has been told to not interfere with protesters. Its an effort to have the event cancelled.

...He began to play, and I recognized the first notes of 'Claire de Lune.' Oh, that sweet man! He remembered how I'd loved it, and asked him to learn it so he could play it for me. He did so now, possessing the grand piano.

I sat there in the fading light and listened to the notes falling around me like warm raindrops, with tears of joy running down my cheeks. This wonderfully talented man loved me and only me. The beauty of this music felt like an iteration of the love he showered upon me. His chin was tucked down, his face intent upon the keyboard. Cascades of notes poured from his hands. I was enraptured, as were those who listened.

Others moved towards the piano, drawn by the beauty. All conversation ceased in this large hall. The notes slowed, drew us into the spaces between them. I saw our parents paused at the top of the stairs, listening, transfixed. As the last few notes trickled from his fingers, they walked forward and I wiped my wet cheeks.

917 Steely Dan represented an intellectual approach to Pop music at a time when no one else was doing that.
Zappa was more in to sarcasm and mockery.
Steely Dan had some early hits that financed their studio ventures, and they really were a studio band.
I have met a lot of those guys who played on the sessions, including the principals. I appreciate what they did. The harmonies, the chord progressions were very advanced, compare them with boring dreck being churned out by pop bands today, there is no comparison.

Heh. Well, lil' Achmed could put a bimb (Clouseau-speak) in it, but he'd need a long extension cord.

And he'd probably electrocute himself while working on it. Live chassis at 120 volts AC.

944 SMFH! I find it curious that whenever there's a leak of classified information like Comey's meeting with Democrats, the leak is always vague so we can never find out what their outrage is exactly about.
Contrast that with the leak of Trump's supposed golden shower event. We get every lurid detail.

Pro-Tip: Don't do a Google image search for zymbal. The first few rows are ok, but then for some reason rodents with weird tumors start showing up.

Unless you're into that.

952 Pop-pop didn't play the tumors - the other one. A big table-like instrument. The legs folded and back in the 30s the band would strap it to the side of the car.

He quit a good job with the railroad to play music. My grandmother almost flipped out.
