So I was wrong....
about not posting again this year.
Go here and read this. If you have a ccw or plan to get one, read it. It could help save your life. Found through Second City Cop.
Speaking of scumbags, here's one for the books..... Too bad the good sgt doesn't have a spare rpg or nitric acid for that azzole Grodner's car. On the other hand, being overseas is a helluvan alibi...
Happy New Year. And be nice to each other while I'm gone.

Last Post of 2007
Last game for the 2007 season's Browns. The L&T doesn't care that I'm wearing my Tim Couch 2 jersey instead of my 19. Will admit, the season has been a helluva ride. Didn't know what a "Dawson bar" (or here) was until this year (although I b'leve Doug Dieken was the one who first uttered the term....)
But 9 or 10 wins is 2 or 3 more than my best guess at the beginning of the season.
Did Algore go to Oshkosh?

All-Righty then....
I hope all of y'all have had a great Christmas and are in the middle of a fine, family holiday season. My son was home for Christmas, Dotter was on the in-law trail this year (she was home for Turkey Day but will flip-flop next year) and a good time was had by all. The L&T got a digital camera, photo printer, clothing and an Ipod. Thanks to Son (and m'man Harald), there were about 750 oldies-but-moldies loaded on the pod b4 she got it.
Great Boogly Mooglies, it's out-freakin'-standing to have fambly and friends.... But it's time to start warming up for next calendar year and the election... *Sigh* Can't get pumped up for it.
Thanks to the blog of my friend Greybeard, here's a little somethin' that should melt every "Bah, Humbug!" feeling in the place. Thanks, Southwest! Good on ya!
Gott-DAM some folks have had a much more meaningful Christmas Eve than the rest of us. God Bless, Mauser Girl - remember, no good deed goes unpunished either in this life or the next - and Abby had to have had a blast.... Thanks for the link, Tam.
The Rottie displays the "damned either way" view most of the LSM has towards Israel and Jews. Complete display of peckerwoodishness (ALERT! NEW WORD!!) Time to exercise the CBU training ...
I hope all y'all had a great Christams - you deserve it!

Merry Christmas
Got a good laugh yesterday. I'm reading Mark Steyn's "America Alone" (read it if only for the demographic reasoning) yesterday while awaiting the lovely and talented wife to come out of the doctor's office. (She went "skywalking" at the West Side Market Friday and klonked her melon rather hard but she's OK). A woman seated in the waiting room asked "Is that "America Alone"?" "Yes, ma'am" "My husband read that and now he's insisting all of our kids read it." "Your husband is a very wise man, ma'am. Merry Christmas."
Kind of a general warm fuzzy that the conservative spark hasn't gone out in the reality I inhabit...
Still laughing about the Sharon Jasper kerfluffle. "I might be poor but I don't like to live poor. I thank God for a place to live, but it's pitiful what people give you." This from a woman who:
A. Has lived in public housing on the dole since she was 6 months old - about 57 1/2 years; and
B. Has a 60" TV among other toys.
The video of her getting in the face of that poor guy behind her is absolutely priceless. A clear glimpse into the mind-set of the "poor". Or at least the "mentally-convinced-the-world-owes-a-living-to-me." Ask any vet what real poverty is - we've seen it in third-world hellholes from Korea to Afghanistan with side trips to the RVN and Iraq. Ms Jasper's eyes would be bulging completely outside her skull-full-of-gimme if she saw (and smelled) real poverty. I saw some of the rat-traps that she wants to renovate when I was in N'awlins after Katrina and they aren't worth the powder to blow 'em to hell - even if you stripped the asbestos out of them first. I wouldn't raise cats in those places, much less dogs or hoo-mans.
But I might make an exception in Ms Jasper's case...
Huckaboob has managed to shoot himself in the foot-n-leg real thoroughly. Claiming a free pass from Jesus is something not even Shrillary had balls enough to do. The shot at Limbaugh was also priceless. I think Rush is 35% truth, 30% self-puffery, and 35% schtick. YMMV. But compared to Jim Rome (my other AM choice) or any of the Air(head) America hosts, he is as far beyond their planetary orbits as Neptune re: the asteroids.
Livey is having a hella time at Lake Tomahawk. Her boyfriend sounds like a "Buzz".
Tam, we are in bloody awe of the GOP throwdown asskickin' you delivered - another pithy piece chock full o' quoties by the mistress of S&W....... And if you have any questions about where she be comin' from, I think I can suggest here. At least, it inspires me....
Well, we're in Browns' Time. Son is home, wings are hot - the only thing is they're losing.... Cooking some Bambi chili for meself and select buds - and listening/watching the game. Be nice to each other while I'm gone.....
And Merry Christmas! Bless y'all.
UPDATE: Browns Blow It - News hurts......

OOoof!
This should make your blood boil. We are so screwed as taxpayers. Not citizens (but that's close if you only count legals), but taxpayers are going to do the same crap as we did with the S&L "crisis". Did not solve basic problem then, will not solve now. God help the American economy if this or KyotoII is passed.
Thinks I've Thunk Lately
Am I the only one disturbed by the commercials advocating "Trash your car to buy one of ours"? Nice job contributing to the coarsening/selfishness of consumers, Toyota. Maybe you want a new plant and the consumers will he'p ya out....
A shout-out to one of my homies - seems like there are a helluva lot of non-trivial blogs coming out of Cleveland and environs. Dan points us to an article that should be required reading for all voters about taxes. Read it late at night with the lights off to really ratchet up the fear factor....
And ya also gotta love a blog with this name. Prester is one of the boys in the hobby store, one of my favorite places...
Looks like we're due for some serious wet-n-cold stuff tonight and into Monday morning. As the L&T observed, "The weather usually sucks on Monday morning in December. Anything to make my life difficult..." Yes, dear....
I must be dumber than the average bear. I can't get PayPal to work worth a damn (well, once, but I'll be damned if I'm feeding any bank info to them for "verification"). Just me opinion.
Speaking of opinions, when are we going to tell the morons in Congress to sod off? There is no earthly excuse for this crapola other than being from another reality...
Otay - got me Kosar jersey on (saves wear-and-tear on the body) and lookin' forward to a 21-17 Browns victory today - but only iffen DA can throw and K2 and J2 can catch and run. And Jamir gets 20-25 touches w/no turnovers. Be good to each other while I'm gone....

Blogger ate my first post - but I gotta come back and try again for this. Artie Arfons was a hero to me. "Local" (he was born in Akron) boy, too. RIP, MonsterMan...
What now?
Not going to pile onto the Chucky Adkins foofaraw - the fact that he has to live with himself could (and should) be punishment enough. If it isn't, he seems like a nicey-nice mama's boy whose mouth has not yet earned him the righteous ass-kicking he wants badly and so richly deserves. He has forgotten the Prime Dictum - The Internet Is Forever.....
Y'know, it's stuff like this that gives me hope for this country even while Hillary is running for coronation. (That reminds me, the country owes Shrillary a vote of thanks for her efforts to keep the economy afloat by re-distributing donated foreign cash to various flacks, investigators, yes-people, and LSM types who are pimping her soon-to-fail campaign. Not to mention the ads and studies she pays for....)
Well, the leopard has finally admitted that he is striped. Bloody amazing that the cretins finally came out and admitted their underlying desire to cripple the US economy.

Iffen you're in the mood to spit beverage-of-choice into your keyboard, go see Og and read this.. Wet myself almost I did..... That's funny, I don' care WHO y'are.
Tomorrow's game will be interesting. Probably painful to watch and NOT due to any staples... Be nice to each other while I'm gone to Marc's...

Dunno how many if any of you are reading Ralph Peters' columns this week about the Returning Heroes Home fundraiser for facilities at Ft Sam Houston. It benefits all returning wounded - even if he does focus on the service with the best PR department. Go read today's story - and then write a check. A fat one.

About That Browns Game...
Well, I'll tell ya I got so cheesed off when the Jets recovered that on-side kick after moving down the field like Erwin Rommel, that I yanked off my Kosar jersey and tossed it downstairs toward the laundry room. The Lovely and Talented was downstairs in the new rec-room and heard it hit the floor. Y'see, she blames last week's loss on the fact that I'd downed the jersey when I thought it was over. (The following was done, at least at the beginning, in dulcet singing tones.)
"Oh honey, come down and get your jersey. We don't want to lose this week." Two beats and footsteps on the steps....
"Hon, did you hear me?" Steps into the living room where I'm having a minor hissy at the keyboard....
"Please. Here it is. Thanks, hon." Somehow the cluebell in the cranium is still suffering from a power-out condition.
"Put this thing on or I'll kick your ass!" The siren in the company area has gone off, but the rounds are already incoming....
"If you DON'T put it on, I'm-a gonna STAPLE IT to your BODY!!"
"Yes Dear."
It's all very clear to me now.....

Rainday Schtuff - Snow Possible
I think it's about time to have a combined all-hands-above-GS-12 meeting for the CIA and State Department in a stadium-scheduled-for-demolition and use it for a live-ammo Warthog and MOAB exercise range. Read this and this (courtesy of tips from the Rottie) and tell me it's not time to mandatorily retire all SES personnel from both agencies. The decay at the interior of both agencies has reached cataclysmic proportions and there is no hint of any mending on the horizon. I had hope for Condi, but I think that John Bolton would need help from Chuck Norris to clean up the mess.... Would make a fine flick, though. "'Stache and Hurt"....
If you're curious about what happens at presidential news conferences that aren't broadcast, you can catch still photos here.
Speaking of photos, I'd like to introduce my two barkers: First Stewie-the-pug:
And now Scarlett-the-minpin. She is 16 or 17, he's 3.
No particular reason, except Rachel always posts Sunny's pictures and I wanted to show her what my cute dogs look like....
Well, time to be about the day. Browns-Jets @ 1600, with a fair chance of a win. Would be nice if the D showed up for a whole game on the same day... Be good to each other while I'm gone..

How I Spent My Days Off
"Now start with 80 mg a day and taper off in 2 weeks. Here's a chart to keep track of the prednisone...". Thus spoke the pharmacy tech as she shooed me off to x-ray...
So yes, I am sick as a dog, thank you. This is my second prescription for predinisone since a week ago Monday and I am real tired of being sick and tired. Still on doxycyclin, too. Haven't had a good night's sleep since Saturday and the nose is touch-it-to-generate-scream raw from honkin' the beezer. Hell, I was so sick Friday my boss marched back to the TechCave and sent me home.... (After I retire I'll have some stories, kids.... Pictures, too.) So I'm doin' an ipatroprium bromide nebulizer treatment immediately prior to retirin' and letting the two dogs jockey for position. I gotta get back to work.
Oh, and yay me. At the Poor Man's Reverse Raffle at the Post Saturday night, the lovely and talented won $25 and I won $300. First time I've won diddly. It'll pay for the L&Ts Christmas gift, though.

It's a Cold-ass Saturday in Cleveland
Jack has another GREAT post up about the debunking of glow-bull hysteria. Seems that greenhouse gases are not bending to the Gorebot's needs..... Neither should we....
Sounds like Pelosi's buttboy Murtha is digesting some crow over the surge with this being 10 days after his claim we are failing in Iraq. I agree with a jarhead friend o' mine (and Post Commander) that there have only been 4 ex-Marines in the years since 1775: the two Embassy guards in Moscow that let the Sovs into the embassy, Lee Harvey Oswald, and Jack Murtha. As an Army vet, I can't directly speak to that, but I suspect he's correct.
The Bad Boy of stunt motorcycling has taken his show on the road for the last time. Mayhap this time he'll beat the canyon.
In the LSM's never-ending quest to defend the American Way of Life and it's political leaders, Erin Burnett of MSNBC has decided that the President is a monkey and announced it to the world at large. She , of course, is responsible for ...any accomplishment beside silicone enhancement of her talents? - AND THERE IS NO LIBERAL BIAS IN THE MEDIA! JUST ASK 'EM!
The Dawg has done it again. Gotta love his slices of life as you envy his life with Babs and worry along with him about his daughter.... Even the lovely-and-talented giggle-snorted when Joe was "convertibile-ized".
Well, tonight the lovely-and-talented and I are going to the Post for a "Poor Man's Reverse Raffle" - $25/head, $1200 top prize, free munchies and keg beer. Hopefully we'll make some cash and continue to stay open.... I expect to win bupkis, so I'm sure I won't be bummed out.
Have a good day and be nice to each other while I'm gone.
