85 Fun fact: Fred Phelps had an appointment to Westpoint, but he turned it down, because he felt his call was to preach the gospel. His father was disappointed with him because of that. And I agree: Fred made a big mistake because of that. Fred was the championship high school boxer in Mississippi when he graduated from high school (at age 16 - he was a 6'5" prodigy). He would have made an excellent officer. I think he had the instinct.

Instead he became increasingly embittered with contemporary culture, and increasingly drawn to sleazy law practices. And the rest is history.

100 Harvey Weinstein statement - curious line:

"I appreciate the way I've behaved with colleagues in the past has caused a lot of pain."


WTF - though "appreciate" may be used to mean "recognize" or "fully understand", my first read of that line alerted my Spidey sense and interpreted it as the more common usage of "admire" or "treasure" or "to be grateful of."

If it was me, I would use a different word. But this guy obviously is not your run-of-the-mill nice guy; probably finds the interpretation to be both admission of guilt and pleasure in being a Hollywood weasel.

108 As I pointed out two threads ago, this seems like a real document.

A Robert Heffington did graduate from West Point in 97 and his name did appear in a list of names sent to Congress for promotion to LTC.

What is shocking in the statement is the insubordination exhibited by Rapone. I would like to see the name of the officer who pointed out Rapone's FB page because that would be corroboration .

And has anyone found out why or verified that Dr. Rasheed Hosein has been placed on probation?

A celebration of free speech at William & Mary College in Virginia took an unexpected turn last week when protesters from Black Lives Matter swarmed the stage and forced organizers to end the event.

“Liberalism is white supremacy!” the protesters shouted, and “ACLU, you protect Hitler too!”

The disruption occurred before Claire Guthrie Gastañaga, executive director of the ACLU of Virginia, could give a planned speech on freedom of expression.

The protesters livestreamed the demonstration on Facebook and were heard shouting other slogans, including, “The oppressed are not impressed!,” “Blood on your hands!,” and “The revolution will not uphold the Constitution!”

The rd plan would be to open new Government Offices in Point Barrow Alaska, and Central Nebraska for many departments.

I would have sent the senior FBI Washington DC staff to every hell hole African and Asian US Embassy. If there were not enough, assign them to the Midwest state Indian Reservation. Hopefully their expert supervisor fellating, and brown nosing skills could be applied to fighting real crimes in those places.

For the military. Assign the Army Pentagon senior officers to a new training and tactic development group, where they are all assigned as role players in a combat battalion using today's standard issue equipment . They can all act as privates, NCOs and Officers as they review training and tactics for a year.

Their final exam is to go to Nevada and take on the best of the NTC. If they lose, they are retired.

Ditto for the Navy, except give them the new Littoral Combat Ships, and Logistical Support vessels.

The Airforce? Assign them to ballistic missiles in ND and Montay.

Whether he believes his own BS is not the question. It's that he's thrown all in on the Trump hate--just like Colbert, SNL, Maddow. But it IS all for ratings. They've been servicing the snowflake Left since the night of the election and since a LOT of the left is well-heeled and upper-middle class--if not rich--it dovetails exactly with the very consumers the advertisers want to reach. It's a win-win. Kimmel and the rest are not aimed at Johnny Carson's middle-American audience. It's aimed at the coastal elite.

Say you're in a situation where you're serving under someone like Rapone. Do you have any way of reporting him to his superiors? Would he find out?

I guess you'd be fucked if the superior felt the same way.

If I was in the service I'd like to think I could point out a revolutionary communist as just a tiny bit of a risk to unit cohesion/operational security.

Posted by: Christopher R Taylor at October 05, 2017 05:20 PM (TZPec)

Whether he believes his own BS is not the question. It's that he's thrown all in on the Trump hate--just like Colbert, SNL, Maddow. But it IS all for ratings. They've been servicing the snowflake Left since the night of the election and since a LOT of the left is well-heeled and upper-middle class--if not rich--it dovetails exactly with the very consumers the advertisers want to reach. It's a win-win. Kimmel and the rest are not aimed at Johnny Carson's middle-American audience. It's aimed at the coastal elite.

Used his airborne badge and CIB as evidence as to this guy being a capable leader (plenty of people get those and many of them are privates), and then said the Army shouldn't ruin his career. Instead they should give him an Article 15 so that he learns his lesson with some extra duty and then continues his career. Apparently no one told the author that Article 15s will kill an officer's career.

Not anything to do with Rapone, really, but I hate reading military articles with no understanding of the military.

263 Whether he believes his own BS is not the question. It's that he's thrown all in on the Trump hate--just like Colbert, SNL, Maddow. But it IS all for ratings. They've been servicing the snowflake Left since the night of the election and since a LOT of the left is well-heeled and upper-middle class--if not rich--it dovetails exactly with the very consumers the advertisers want to reach. It's a win-win. Kimmel and the rest are not aimed at Johnny Carson's middle-American audience. It's aimed at the coastal elite.

I would argue long term its a losing strategy.

But they've figured out that a small group of seal clappers can keep the lights on.

Jimmy Fallon (not Kimmell) early on made a point to not be political and he comfortably led the ratings. But he was shamed into being publicly anti-Trump after the hair incident "humanized" Trump.

Older people like my parents used to watch Leno before they went to sleep, but now that all of these guys are just left-wing talking heads, they just have moved on to other programming.

Half of this country (if not more) is not liberal, and they don't like being shit on.

Netflix is facing increased competition from a number of upstart companies as it works to grow its subscriber base and secure its position in a battle seen by many as the future of premium video.

Over the next several months, Netflix will raise the price of its midlevel "standard" plan by one dollar to $10.99 and its "premium" plan by two dollars to $13.99. The company's "basic" plan will continue to cost $7.99.

266 Baseball: One guy stands on a mound, staring at a guy with a stick, who is also standing still, staring back. And he stands, and he stands, and he stands, and he finally throws the ball at the guy with the stick. They guy with the stick isn't impressed, so he just stands there and doesn't do anything at all. A guy in black waves his hands, and the ball heads back to the guy on the mound.

So again he stands on the mound, staring at the guy with a stick, who is also standing still, staring back. And he stands, and he stands, and he stands, and he finally throws the ball at the guy with the stick. They guy with the stick isn't impressed, so he just stands there and doesn't do anything at all.

I guess sooner or later some other stuff happens, but that's as far as I get before I gotta find something else to do.

283 Deli facing backlash after co-owner called Las Vegas shooting 'community outreach'

A Chicago-area deli is facing backlash after one of its owners sent out a tweet in response to the Las Vegas mass shooting, calling it "community outreach."

Greg Morelli of Max's Deli in Highland Park, Ill. said he felt "relief" when he heard about the shooting because it took place at a country music concert.

"Soon as I heard it was country music, I felt relief. White people shooting white people isn't terror ... it's community outreach. #LasVegas," Morelli's tweet read.

I guess you can see that way, or you can see it: a man trying to hit a ball coming at him at 95 mph with a fraction of a second to decide whether to swing or not. There's a man in scoring position. The game can be won or lost with one swing of the bat. If he's a really good hitter he's got a 30% chance of hitting it.

I like my way of seeing it better. It's much more fun.

There are certainly boring games, or innings, but baseball can go from boring to intensely exciting in a matter of seconds. People who understand and love the game watch it for those moments.

It takes more than one officer saying you have a bad attitude to get kicked out of West Point. There is a whole process. (Unless you had some bad think like women are different than men or something - that shit will get you an immediate bus ticket.)

Being a Marxist when the Soviet Bear was staring at us over the commander's hatch of his main battle tank - very easily translatable to supporting the enemy, or not supporting the values of the Army.

Being a Marxist in the days where a full on Socialist could be elected President of the US - harder to put someone out of the service over that.

I am not saying that CDT Commie was A-Okay - but it is apparent that USMA took the easier wrong here (if you know the Cadet Prayer, choosing the harder right over the easier wrong is fundamental. They should have put him out. That would have taken more effort than to let him graduate and pass him on.

Place the noodles in a suitable container (a large coffee cup, if nothing else).

Add the seasoning packet, and, if impressing a date, some dried vegetable and/or onion flakes. Pour the appropriate quantity of boiling water over them. Wait 2-3 minutes. Stir.

Enjoy.

To watch? Unbearable. Slow. Methodical. 80% of action out of view (under water), just a blizzard of ref's whistles and flags, and splashes most of the time. Olympics is no better than high school or NCAA (to watch).

But to play, not much room for boredom. 100% effort at all times (you're, um, swimming), no quiet right field duty as in a casual softball league, no cruising half your shift as in hockey.

Silverman and Cho shows are not worth your time. I thought to myself, where the hell Margaret Cho had been. After watching the interview, I now know why. She's extremely uninteresting.

FWIW, I would advise watching the Letterman and Carrey eps. Always find Norm's depth of knowledge and ability to challenge his interviewee surprising and impressive.

If he/she is from North Vegas, Amends step.

425 339 251 215 Enter: Norm Macdonald, with no political axe to grind (Bob Dole excluded), and voila! Rating gold for us militant normies to escape and laugh with.

I like Norm but I recently unsubscribed from his YouTube channel as I grew weary of seeing the leftist scumbags he continuously invites onto his show in my subscription stream.

Given most mainstream comedians are liberal, he's going to have to interview a few lefties. FWIW, politics really aren't discussed or pushed like they are on the current Late Night show circuit. Really find the conversations refreshingly insightful and funny.

I subscribe to the Anthonycumia Network, he recently hired Artie Lang, very funny and VERY UN PC.

426 'Which step is that?'

Maybe he fell off the wagon and was near the end of the ten stages of drunkenness:
1. Witty & Charming
2. Rich and Powerful
3. Benevolent
4. Clairvoyant
5. Fuck Dinner
6. Patriotic
7. Crank up the Enola Gay
8. Witty & Charming, Part II
9. Invisible
10. Bulletproof

427 409 FWIW, I would advise watching the Letterman and Carrey eps. Always find Norm's depth of knowledge and ability to challenge his interviewee surprising and impressive.

Posted by: Carlos Danger at October 05, 2017 06:22 PM (ce4vQ)

410 But listen to the questions he asks and the way he cuts them off when they get into recycled tropes. He's trolling them fantastically, especially this season.

I'm sure Google Clips works about as well as their "driverless cars" or Google Glass. Remember when everyone thought that was going to be like Terminator-vision and it was going to be the new thing? Yeah.

How about their plans to colonize Mars and mine asteroids and stop Global Warming with giant space umbrellas?

Technology isn't running amok. Google's publicity stunts are running amok, and Matt Drudge falls for it every time.

This will likely be that one movie per year (max) that I'll have an interest in seeing at the theater. I was lucky that I caught the original in its limited theatrical re-run in the 90's. My horrible parents wouldn't let me see it during its original run when I was 7 no matter how much I begged.

Anyway, hope it doesn't suck.

I find it depressingly ironic that Anton Myrer's book Once An Eagle no longer on the US Army Chief of Staff's Professional Reading List. Can't help thinking that entirely too many officers thought Massengale was the proper role model, and the CoS finally decided to drop it out of embarrassment.

438 'hope it doesn't suck'

It may not suck, but I don't see how it can approach the original.

Best movie line ever: 'do you like my owl?'

442 312 the bizarre appeal of curling

That was the only sport I saw for the last Winter Olympics. The women's competition. Fascinating.


The women's fencing during the summer Olympics was fascinating, too. And had some drama.
