Sounds like Leon needs a lawnmower with moar power. I think we may have found one:

When he’s done mowing the lawn, he can take care of the pesky bunnies:

Go get ‘em, tiger!

Sorry, the comment form is closed at this time.
I actually don’t mind using the pull-reel. If I can stay on top of the mowing, it works pretty well, it’s quiet, and it’s never failed to start or had a belt break.
On another note, I feel obliged to inform you all that I’ll be making butter chicken later.
11 AM ALARM TEST TIME!
Workout finished. Did HIIT session on the bike first. My legs feel like jello.
MCPO, were you doing Special High Intensity Training?
Bike HIIT will do that.
hmmm.. the alarm in my neighborhood is boke.
I will transmit this information to Vladimir.
We test neighborhood alarms at noon on Wednesdays. Used to be the first Wed. of the month, but it seems to be a weekly thing lately.
MI might be repealing permit-to-purchase for handguns next week.
xBrad – I did that training “list” for CPO Initiation.
Ternaahder!
Good morning, yard workers.
Sean – I live in a condo. . .
Way to shatter my illusions, Chief.
Thunderstorm just arrived.
Sean -It’s what you folks in Cali call a patio home. But, I don’t do any outside stuff.
This sucks. I’ve got all this yardwork to do, no other scheduled things to accomplish, and I really shouldn’t be going to the gym.
Heck, I can’t even sunbathe.
I have never once heard the term “patio home.”
Wait! What?

I just finished mowing. I gauged the temperature and humidity to be equal. Whew!
Linky no worky, jimbry.

Stolen from ‘sickinmass’ at Aces:
A tourist walked into a Chinese curio shop in San Francisco . While looking around at the exotic merchandise, he noticed a very lifelike, life-sized, bronze statue of a rat.
It had no price tag, but was so incredibly striking the tourist decided he must have it.
He took it to the old shop owner and asked, “How much for the bronze rat?”
“Ahhh, you have chosen wisely!
It is $12 for the rat, $100 for the story.” said the old Chinaman.
The tourist quickly pulled out twelve dollars.
“I’ll just take the rat, you can keep the story.”
As he walked down the street carrying his bronze rat, the tourist noticed that a few real rats had crawled out of the alleys and sewers and had begun following him down the street. This was a bit disconcerting so he began walking faster.
A couple blocks later he looked behind him and saw to his horror the herd of rats behind him had grown to hundreds, and they began squealing.
Sweating now, the tourist began to trot toward the Bay. Again, after a couple blocks, he looked around only to discover that the rats now numbered in the MILLIONS, and were squealing and coming toward him faster and faster.
Terrified, he ran to the edge of the Bay and threw the bronze rat as far as he could into the Bay. Amazingly, the millions of rats all jumped into the Bay after the bronze rat, and were all drowned.
The man walked back to the curio shop in Chinatown . “Ahhh,” said the owner, “You have come back for story?”
“No, sir,” said the man “I came back to see if you have a bronze Democrat.”
Time to go weed on our last nice day for a while…
Yeah, I don’t think Gmail will allow people other than you to open the document that links to.
Cut the shit! It was a funny one, I can personally attest to that. Guaranteed to fill your Depends from laughing so hard. Oh well, better luck next time
We spent the morning looking at camps to buy. There’s a nearby lake called Pushaw where I can get to work in the morning about 10 minutes longer than here. Saw a good one, 2 pricey ones and a shack that was falling apart.
“I’ll take Thin-Skinned, Humorless Dumbasses for $1000, Alex.”
Storm’s passed, but it’s still too wet out to accomplish anything.
We just got full sun and the grass is, unfortunately, dry enough to mow. Sigh, gotta get the Deere fired up
Dang – Mr. TiFW just got a phone call from our church asking him if he would be a pallbearer for a dear older man who passed away last night.
Time to get the Kleenex….
Lawns are stupid. I gotta turn more of the land into pasture.
This year, it’s been kinda tough, losing people. Our pianist lost her mom this morning.
Kind thoughts and prayers TiFW.

Time to make the butter chicken. Ought to make a solid breffast.
http://www.buzzfeed.com/samir/what-the-blink-182-girl-looks-like-today
Is butter chicken on the recipe page? Why the hell not?
Butter Dog is, but not Butter Chicken.
keep butterin that chicken
Eh, I guess I could add it. Sadly, I just realized I won’t actually be making it today. I forgot that the marinade step is 4 hours minimum. Tomorrow, I suppose.
Today: babyback ribs. In about 2 hours.
WordPress sux. I’m logged in but no avatard.
Hmm. Recipe says at least an hour for the marinade in the recipe. I’ve never done it in less than 4, and the ribs are already in the oven.
Eh, tomorrow. Ribs today means I can go mow now that the sun’s out again.
I could also take the opportunity to make another attempt at my crock-pot variant of the recipe.
Pups, are you and Leon related?
Butter.
I did my part to stimulate the economy. No, I could not put it off until after the election. Mini-me hit a growth spurt.
Just got real dark here. We are going to a BBQ in 2 hours. Golf umbrella?
Please don’t get struck by lightning. Thanks.
Mini-me can’t wear Rocketboy’s hand-me-downs?
She was wearing cousin’s hand-me-downs, but she caught up in height.
I swear Rebecca had back-to-back growth spurts over the last year – we bought her a bunch of next-size-up clothes for the summer and winter, and she has already outgrown all of them.
No luck in hand-me-downs – there’s a good 10 years between her and the sisters…..
Looks like PA is getting today what we got yesterday!

I’d put that 2-iron in the bag ifn I was you Master Chief.
MY pool is totally scrubbded.
DD#1 just sent us some FB links to pictures that they took on their trip to the Far East – looks like they had a great time!
Are you allowed in the pool yet, Dave? Couldn’t remember if your eye doc gave you restrictions or not….
My niece and SIL posted pics of my nephew who just graduated from high school. I don’t know if it’s the Asperger’s, the death-by-film, or what, but he has a “get off my lawn!” look on his face.
ROMY! Hola! Have a pic or 2 4 u of your gorgeous gift. Using it daily. TY.
Hey, y’all! I just got suspded frm Twitter, I think 4 teasing chucky johnson. How do I get out of twitter gulag? I’m GadsdenJazz on twitter
JAZZ!!!! **pounces, gives a good squishy hug**
You’re welcome.
Romy, the beads have been getting some workouts!
>> Are you allowed in the pool yet, Dave?
Nope, not for another month. I taped the night shield over it.
Jazz, I’ve been in the repairing business lately. Tomorrow at church, I’ll deliver three rosaries that have been repaired and pick up at least one more to be fixed.
Ran into some stuff I couldn’t get with the pull-reel, so I got the gas out. I hate how that thing numbs my hands.
Back from the soccer fields. Two wins, and Ethan got a goal in each game. He also had some great passes, etc.
The team he’s playing on this weekend has some GREAT players. it’s not his usual team, but there is talk that they will be the team next year. Soccer politics. @@
We saw the teams we’re playing tomorrow. Yikes.
Yellow cards were flying.
Thas’s so cool, romy! We have a Catholic store up the street from us that will do the same. The store smells funny, though – like old people and the funerals I served when I was a kid. :-/
My last “suspension” lasted about 24 hours. I pissed off some lefty comedian who, apparently, has a following. . . of speech-suppressing fascists.
Twitter Jail
HI, Car in!
Have you seent he #H2WhiteParty hashtag on Twitter? I thought there was a Hostage party down your way, but after reading the twitstreamy thing, maybe not….
Heh. This is cool.

Shameless blog whoring.

Yellow cards are for fags.
Very cool, romy!!!
Yesterday, NPR was touting SpaceX & commercial ventures as the future of near-earth space travel, ostensibly so that NASA can focus on
Muslim outreachon a manned Mars mission. Do you get a feeling that NASA has a coherent mission anymore? Because the outward face of NASA seems to lack a bit of focus of late…HI! HI! Hi! *runs through bog, compliments MJ on yesterdays’ BBF….It has been YEARS since I have missed BBF. My apologies. Continue on with your lovely Saturday friends.
Hey, MJ! I thought yellow was for joos, and pink was for teh faygz. Accessorizing is hard.
Bonita sohita! Hola!!!
Jeff Zuckerberg should take his facechimp billions and go conquer Mars.
So, Chief and I are both Twitter felons…. Who else has gotten time out?
hey, leon and Hotspur! Happy Michigan Saturday! Days like today are why I love MI.
Hola sweet Jazz!
Aaand, anyone know what I have to do to get out of Titter jail? I emailed support, but not sure if I can do anything else.
You know what? I got suspended less than ten minutes after Cuffy decided to follow me…….
Hmmmmmmmmmmmmm…………….
That #H2WhiteParty hash is soooo urban, I thought for sure it was y’all.
You got Cuffed.
And I didn’t mean “urbane,” either.
It’s been hawt and hooooomid here, Jazz, even after it quit raining.
Also, I’m permabanned from Twatter. My mind won’t let me near it.
“You got Cuffed” – LOL I sure did.
How’s Mrs. Hotspur? Is the B&B already in full swing?
No, Jazz. We sold it yesterday.
She’s GREAT!
I avoided Twitter for a long time, leon, but I’mma try to use it to market a few business enterprises I’ve got going (namely, ME). So, I’m figuring out how to use it. It’s much more fun than I thought it would be.
Congrats, ‘Spur!!!! Y’all needed some rest. That was so much work for her!
Congratulations Hotspur!!!!!!!
Jazz, I’ll say that NASA is out of sorts for the moment. Some of it is that the new rocket, SLS is still in the early design stages, so there’s not enough cutting metal yet. Some of it, at least where I am at, is that they laid off hundreds of people and then had a buyout. There’s a lot of reorganizing and manpower shuffling going on. I’m fairly isolated from it, and my job is, in theory, not in danger for another year.
I’d say there’s also the feeling that everyone is holding their breath until after the election.
Yeah, she definitely hit a wall last year. We’re very glad.
Jazz is in Twitmo, eh?
Say hi to @glockandpearls.
Heh.
http://theweek.com/article/slideshow/227908/obamas-illusion
I got nuthin’
Seriously. Nothing funneh to add here. Nothing to say on my blog. Nothing to comment about on any of the other blogs I visit.
**cuts Jazz**
Check your email, XBrad, I sent you an idea for a poat.
The only funneh I got is every time I hear the ad for “Bunheads” on the Family Channel, I hear “Buttheads.”
*folds xbrad into thirds, places him on a buttered cookie sheet, sprinkles him with herbs and breadcrumbs, and sets him in the oven at 400 degrees for one hour*
What goes with that, Laura? Red wine or Jager?
You guys are the greatest – really.
I’m FINALLY getting my feet under me – y’all haven’t really known me at my best – and I’m feeling really good. It’s been a long, long time since I’ve had the clarity of thought that I’ve got now. I can see a path for my life, finally. All it took was going in the opposite direction for a decade, myriad distractions, and recognizing my consuming selfishness.for me to figure things out. The next few months are going to be exciting and scary, but FUN, because I think i’ve gotten off the treadmill and am making forward progress.
So, why are you the greatest? Because you’ve accommodated my difficult personality and still embrace me. Because, even when life has been shit, y’all have made me laugh. Because I can come back here after being a ghost for a year (or more), and I get a place at the table. I don’t talk to y’all very often anymore, but I HEAR you all the time, and I’m grateful for every one of you. It’s been a long road to get to where I am now, and y’all have had a hand in bringing me home. Y’all may not know it, but you have influence, and I am grateful you wield it the way you do.
You’re still weirdos, though.
HAHAHAHAHA!! #H2WhiteParty
I know what that is. I don’t even tweak.
Because, even when life has been shit, y’all have made me laugh.
THIS
*plucks a nose hair from Jazz*
POINK!
Because, even when life has been shit, y’all have made me laugh.
Well… not so much today.

Off to a graduation party. Later, taters.

man, this cancer bullshit just doesn’t fucking stop, does it?
I can’t believe we lost Harrison.
Cancer is a fucking asshole and I hate it.
nice profile pic, dave.
I’m gonna miss seeing Harrison’s eye avatar. It was really quite original.
Dave, I’m not going to say it on my fb wall, but I’m ready to disown my fucking family for what they’re putting me through (well, my mother anyway) with this divorce.
I did, however, get hired on with a company and I’ll be making more money than I ever thought possible.
I’d rather stay here with my internet family and mourn Harrison with you, than with my real, physical family.
Aye!
OH!.. Hon. I’m sorry. Moms are, complicated I think. Mine was.
and super CONGRATS on the new job!
PeeJ,
I just saw his picture on Facechimp, and it still don’t seem real that he’s gone.
Complicated is a very nice way to put it, Dave.
Crispy, I tell ya, this month has been just awful….second person this month, plus all my drama…….and really I can’t complain because look at his beautiful wife. She lost the love of her life.
Sorry to hear about the divorce, PJ, someone just clued me in a couple days ago.
What kind of cancer got him?
see, I’m very nice.
Mostly.
*puts a towel on*
I’m turning over a new leaf and paying attention to social details, so I’m not bolting out of here without saying “goodnight.”
xbrad, your bitching about no funny today is . . . kind of funny.
Goodnight, y’all. Like Ahnold and SOME hops, “I’ll be bock.”
I’m not leaving without smooching Peej, tho.
Sorry to hear about the divorce, PJ, someone just clued me in a couple days ago.
It’s ok. It’s a good thing. I made the decision……..it’s just not going easily is all.
awwwwwwww, my sweet Jazz. thanks for the smooch.
I have a headache. I think I slept too soon after eating and didn’t rehydrate enough.
I’m turning over a new leaf and paying attention to social details, so I’m not bolting out of here without saying “goodnight.”
but my gawd, you’re fucking retarded.
*makes a balloon giraffe.. FUCK..
*starts over*
FUCK
makes a balloon, somethin. Drawbridge.
What kind of cancer got him?
I don’t know. I saw somewhere it said a two and a half year battle. Funny how some of you hostages just don’t share…….like cranky.
What is the new job PJ?
I saw either the bravest or the stupidest motherfucker in America today. I was eating a burger at Fuddruckers in Midland today and this white dude…..late fourties early fifties and standing about 5’4″……..was wearing an Obama 2012 tshirt. Midland is Laura Bush’s home town and votes R:D about 75:25 every four years. I take him for a Prof down at the local juco.
Dave, didn’t Harrison call us when we were at Michael’s meetup a couple of years ago, or am I just misremembering that?
When I met him he thought it was in remission. That was the weekend Dave fell in the ocean.
makes a balloon, somethin. Drawbridge.
When Graham was about three, we went to Maui and they had a guy at the hotel making balloon animals.
When he got to Graham, he asked him what he wanted, Graham said, ” a stick”
Right, Scott. He came out with us in DC last fall and looked great.
Damn this stuff can turn on a dime.
Well, maybe not remission. He thought it had all been surgically removed. .
Pendejo, that guy’s safe from everything short of getting laughed at.
What is the new job PJ?
hah, one of my classmates at school referred me to a position at his company. I’ll be driving a truck and dropping off uniforms and those little carpets that restaurants and businesses have at their doors and picking up the dirty ones and I don’t even have to make any sales.
The manager just said I have to get people to like me and he didn’t think I’d have any problem doing that. YAY!
I go on a ride along on Thursday to see if I can hack it and if I can and I’m fast enough. I’m hired. It’s very physical 10 hour days..but three days off a week. WOOHOO!
>> Dave, didn’t Harrison call us when we were at Michael’s meetup a couple of years ago, or am I just misremembering that?
I can’t remember Andy. I remember him in CT though, he was in remission like Scott just said, and it was so good to see him. Then he went through a second round of chemo, and after he came out of it, we saw him in DC last September.
He was about to go do more.
He endured a lot. I wish it had saved him. I will never forget seeing him that Friday night. It’s selfish, but I am glad for that.
Well, maybe not remission. He thought it had all been surgically removed. .
so what kind was it?
Damn this stuff can turn on a dime.
yeah. it does and it makes me sick and so sad.
Just so we’re clear, I have no undisclosed medical issues.
Other than trying to kick my addiction to pr0n. I’m tossing out The Box today.
I’m tossing out The Box today.
The box of Kleenex?
I deleted the digital stuff, cleared my caches and deleted bookmarks. The Box is all the analog stuff from before I had broadband. After that, I just have to somehow forget URLs.
yeah, cuz that was a totally serious question I asked.
PJ, if I remember correctly it started as bladder cancer.
[name redacted]?
argh. I suppose I have to go back to the family reunion. Thankfully it’s at a hotel about a half hour away, so I can bail again if it starts sucking.
I brought my ham radio so I could fiddle around on it when I get bored.
Relative talking to me: So, pj, what’s been up with you?
PJ looks up: I’m sorry, were you talking to me? I was listening to two old men talk about their diarrhea on the radio.
Am I allowed to say, Scott?
but yes
yeah, cuz that was a totally serious question I asked.
See? My brain’s so messed up I didn’t even catch that.
PJ, if I remember correctly it started as bladder cancer.
that can’t have been easy….and he never complained or put any drama on fb. Always as pleasant as can be.
it’s exhausting and dirty work, but you know what? When I was a teenager and other girls my age were babysitting……I went on worked on an egg ranch with the boys.
Nothing says dirty and disgusting like the dead chicken barrel in July.
PJ, I delivered and picked up copiers for almost 2 years. I loved it.
Outside all day, exercise,no telephone, no stress, and no two days are the same.
A guy I know who has been in sales for 40 years just quit to take a job delivering PODS. He loves it!
It’s not glamorous, but it’s not a bad way to earn a decent living.
It’s nice to hear you say that, Scott. I’m not afraid of hard work. I was getting a little depressed because it seems there’s no way to apply for a job anymore, other than online. I had no chance to sell myself to anyone.
Because I got this referral, I was able to meet the management. I called him every single day for two weeks straight.
I got to the point where I felt I had nothing to lose and would leave a message saying, “Hi, this is PJ, I’m making my daily stalking phone call”
and then when it came time for my second interview…….it wound up being HIM/HE? that was doing the interviewing.
One of the questions was, what’s a time you were persistent and it paid off? I said the fact that I”m being interviewed by you right now.
he laughed and said he was thinking the same thing.
I’m just looking forward to finally feeling independent.
ok. guess I’ll go back to the family reunion now.
*sighs*
>> PJ, if I remember correctly it started as bladder cancer.
Yes. A small tumor on his bladder,
Fuck.
Oh, the other nice thing about that kind of work. No office BS.
Not working with idiots is really nice.
I hope its for you PJ. Best of luck.
Good luck, Peej
>> He endured a lot. I wish it had saved him. I will never forget seeing him that Friday night. It’s selfish, but I am glad for that.
I’m soooo glad I went back and looked at the invite list and realized he’d been missed. I probably first contacted him about a week before the thing took place.
We delivered copiers that weighed between 200 lbs and 1400 lbs. Each stop was different and we made 10 – 15 a day. 10-15 puzzles to solve beats the hell out of 100 phone calls any day.
“I will never forget seeing him that Friday night.”
Was that a one day event?
If my memory is correct…..you fell into the ocean, we went to a bar that had the greatest bartender of all time and Harrison showed up.
That was it? One night?
No, Friday night we had dinner with Drew and Dave and Alex the Chick. Saturday was the big partay where Harrison showed. That was the Madison meetup.
Jenny and I went to DC in 2010 and that was the next and last time I met Harrison.
A darling fellow. I can’t stand this.
Heh.. no Scott, I meant the Friday last Sept. in DC.
When we met earlier, in CT, the same day I slipped and found out “holy shit, Scott’s right, this water is warm”, that night we stayed up after you and Laura headed home, smokin cigars and drinkin out on the patio until, sheesh, 3am I think.
So I met him twice.
Madison! Madison is where the ocean sucked me into it’s horrible embrace.
I’m watching GloatFest 2010 again. Dear God I hope there’s one this year.
Good Evening Citizens!
Here for another 12 hr. midnight shift.
Working the ‘Special Airlift Mission’ desk tonight. Normally that means moving the POTUS and VPOTUS’s stuff around. It’s been pretty busy the last few weeks, but Slow Joe and Obama must be taking the weekend off. No missions moving tonight or tomorrow.
I liked what Ace said, which was that he was the kind of guy you couldn’t not like.
*Raises glass*
“but Slow Joe and Obama must be taking the weekend off.”
Can you move their stuff anyway? I would do that.
Nice post at the HQ, Dave. Damn I miss Big Ron, and that is him at his finest. And also the zenith of Dame Noonan’s career.
I had intended to save that one of mine from this a.m. until a little later, but that’s where the a.m. open thread comments were going anyway.
I’m amused that the Science Channel’s new tagline is “question everything”. Does that include CAGW and String Theory?
Huh. There seems to be a lack of Hotspur.
Somebody should call the ghetto bar.
Ha, Leon! I have that same thought on CAGW every time I see that.
Thanks Andrew. *lifts a glass wit ya*
Nice post at the HQ, DiT. Andy, the photo you put up at the HQ makes me cry every time I see it.
String Theory rests on even less sound footing, Andy. It’s mental masturbation funded by federal grant money. On the upside, it’s utter meaninglessness means that it won’t result in calls for human civilization to end. On the downside, every paper written on the topic was paid for by tax dollars.
Me too.
Me too.

Thanks, Andy, I’m crying again. My cousin served with James Cathey. The photo of his wife by the casket gets me every time.
Wait, there’s no audio at that link? I’ll wait. It’ll be better.
I still think Thursday should be Bluegrass and Country music day.
That photo is the one that made me think of this one. One of my FB homies posted it last night.
Second
I was working outside today and had my Internets radio going. I started with a Don Williams channel on Pandora and then cut over to my Randy Rogers Band channel halfway through. Classic C&W and then Texas Country. Doesn’t get any better.

2nd.
Had trouble seeing. My bad
Jeez, Dave. Thanks.
*throws away empty Kleenex box*
Waiting to find out which 2nd Lt passed that day was excruciating for me. My cousin had asked me to not let anyone know all the internet blogs and links I was following because he didn’t want anyone to worry. I still feel bad about feeling relief that it wasn’t J.
You don’t have to feel bad about that Oso. You’re a human woman.
You can let that go.
Thanks Dave,
Big Lt Col now crying on the job. One of my Sgt’s is pregnant and asked what I was reading. I told her if she read it she would be useless the rest of the shift. I said I’d send her the link at 0600, right before we leave.
My little guy loves music, and my daughter is singing to him right now as he goes to bed.
So sweet.
that’s so awesome Andrew I can’t even find words to say how awesome it is.
Most beautiful sound ever.
Dave,
That made my eyes leak.
Thanks for that…
*Peeks in, sees everyone crying*
Did someone have another breakthrough?
I’m trying to watch Super Shark on Syfy, starring John Schneider/Bo Duke. It has marginally more value than barnyard porn.
And I’m not gonna comment on the Cathey link, the dog/casket or dog/master links, or Andy’s comment, although they’re all beautiful, and the juxtaposition against each other could trigger an emotional seizure.
God, this movie is so very, very, very bad.
The female lead was played a lead character in “Megashark,” too.
As an intelligent viewer, I’m feeling a mite taken for granted.
Jimmy “JJ” Walker makes an cameo appearance.
So sad….
Who bankrolls atrocities like this?
This shark roars like a lion, but it’s not a “lion shark.” It also flies and is impervious to bullets and walks on its pec fins.
I think it might have a job with a messenger service, too.
Jazz,
A silver bullet, wooden stake?
We have ‘Super Shark’ showing on one of the 8 big screens in the ‘video wall’. Just saw the shark blow up.
Phat,
Was it “He blowed-up good?”
Feeling cheated. Missed the plot development.
‘Sharktopus’ on now! Yes!
Why are the Syfy movies soooo bad. It’s like they aren’t even trying. They aren’t even spoofy funny. Next up is Sharktopus. They have to be doing some serious drugs.
“Missed the plot development”?
BWHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!
pepelp2, you ask a probative question worthy of an answer of substance.
Unfortunately, do not have it.
The amazing thing is, these actors are getting PAID. Where is the money coming from?
Syfy has to be laundering drug money or something.
Here’s a link to a pic of the command center I work in. The ‘video wall’ is in the background. In the pic only the bottom half of the wall is showing feeds. The whole thing is about 3 stories tall.

I’m full of questions…. Why does toothpaste always fall off the brush, but sticks like glue to the sink?
phat, that’s PHAT. I would LOVE to watch “Super Shark” or “Megashark” on that.
Now imagine Sharktopus taking up 1/3 of that wall. Awesome.
That blonde is a tranny.
Why does toast always fall butter-side down?
Y’all must have a fun crew on that shift, phat.
Cool phat
The AF does not skimp on cameras
During day shift we have to keep ‘official feeds’ on the screens. Newschannels, weather, GPS tracking displays of our aircraft, etc.
Nights and weekends we have more flexibility. Ususally it’s sports and movies. Looking forward to seeing ‘Patton’ tonight at 1 am.
Why do hippies stink?
Hi, Vmax

Hi Jazzman Good to see you around here.
Why do hippies stink?
===
Lack of hygiene and patchouli
Andy,
HA! An AF classic. ‘He’ll see everything! He’ll see the Big Board!’
Speaking of George C. Scott movies…Patton at 1 am on AMC.
The opening scene of Patton is … perfect.
Where’s Hotspur? Jail? In the ER getting a bullwhip removed from his ass? Watching Justin Bieber videos? Perving out at Chuck E. Cheese?
>> Where’s Hotspur? Jail? In the ER getting a bullwhip removed from his ass? Watching Justin Bieber videos? Perving out at Chuck E. Cheese?
Yes
I just finished watching “House”. Not the show, the movie about the Vietnam vet in a haunted house. Every single second of it was blissful perfection compared to any given SyFy movie.
Watching “They Live” now.
Leon,
‘I’m here to kick ass and chew bubblegum…and I’m all out of bubblegum.’
What channel?
Netflix. I’ve only seen that one excerpt, never the whole movie.
They Live – The politician in there looks like John Kerry
Roddy Piper’s mullet should date Meg Ryan’s hair.
OMG that’s Meat Loaf. And that other guy is Keith David.
Did anybody steal anybody else’s thunder today?
Nope, did steal candy from a baby. Just kidding, actually I stole a baby. TMI??
I spent the day working on a project that fought every step of the way. Something that should take 5 minutes took an hour and a half. I think I can beat it into submission tomorrow.
Sean, did you have a won-derp-ful day?
OMG, the sunglasses! They let you see the real face of the 1%!!!!
Heh. Elizabeth Warren really is a fraud. They Live was the “intellectual foundation” for OWS!
It’s like adding reptoids to OWS conspiracy theories.
I did indeed, pepe. I got to be there to see two of my friends get engaged at a party this evening.
Bubblegum!
Bedtime.
Wow, the local NBC affiliate has a show on called ‘St. Louis Country’. Bunch of middle aged tubby people line dancing at a C & W club. Almost mesmerizing in its awfulness. Not unlike Sharktopus.
The poor camera man is having a tough time finding any hotties to zoom in on.
I think I’m just going to concentrate on this cinematic masterpiece.
Jeebus, Phat. I think they’re violating the Geneva Conventions there.
Hello overnight crew.
Almost mesmerizing in its awfulness.
Uh-oh.

Okay, time for Riley’s walkies. Back in a while.
Phat, did you say you grew up in Grapevine?
Before I moved to this godawful hellhole I’m in now, I was in Southlake. One of my regular haunts was the tobacco shop there in GV and its affiliated next-door bar. Good times, good times.
Andy,
Yep, born in Irving, but grew up in Grapevine. It’s changed ALOT since I was a kid.
Hey, the show has a straming link:
http://www.wil92.com/category/stlcountry-video/20120525/St.-Louis-Country-3~24~12-with-special-guest-Eden's-Edge/
You’re welcome!
I just found out it’s taped at a bar in Collinsville, IL which is the next town over from mine.
I bet. The friggin’ football stadiums now are hilarious. Southlake Carroll on one side of Hwy. 26 and Grapevine/Colleyville on the other. 99% of the colleges in the US would like to have them.
I saw that Southlake now has an indoor practice field! That school was only a 2A school back when I graduated (Grapevine HS, 1984).
Yup. 80-yard indoor field that the Cowboys receivers work out on in the Summer and perennial 5A champ. Crazy.
You’re by Belleville, right, phat? At Scott? I think one of my other personalities had this discussion with you once….
*pictures phat and Andy at piano singing All in the Family theme*
Indoor workout facility + Locked doors = It’s hard to prove you’re cheating.
Worth Every Penny.
Jazz, stationed at Scott. I live about 30 min north in Glen Carbon, IL.
Shut up, Cassidy.
The base is named after Corporal Frank S. Scott, the first enlisted person to be killed in an aviation crash.

Bite me, you DIRTY MOTHERFUCKER!!!
I went to school in Belleville a lifetime ago….
Love you too, bro
Jazz, we will mount a furious campaign to rescue you from Twitmo.
Meanwhile, you may want to get another Twitter handle, based on @glockandpearls saga.
THanks, Andy!!! I’m in the gulags, I think, for mocking markos the commie. I busted his nuts just a little, but it wasn’t long after that – or Cuffy’s follow (?) – that I got suspended.
There’s an Our Lady of something or other in Belleville that begs me for money on a regular basis.
No, wait – I just looked. It was Chucky J at LGF, I think.
Our Lady of the Snows. I know those dudes.
Huh – it was pretty mild, actually:
@DanRiehl @lizardoid’s (Chucky J’s) rantings r a mixture of political hypochondria, myopia, & intellectual IBS.
Our Lady of the Snows is awesome. Especially at xmas.
Yeah, that is mild compared to some of the stuff Patterico posted.
Meaning the threats that Patterico received, not what he posted on Twitter.
Brain’s a little discombobulated tonight.
It’s the Twitter banning algo. @TheH2 is approaching 15K tweets, so the algo won’t hit it. But folks like Jazz with low tweet counts will get caught in the web.
I get why they make it work the way it does, but the redress process should be better.
Note for Carin in the morning. Your FB friend Rob is a coward, and I have more balls than he does.
Oh, hell, @TheH2 got blocked by Chucky J for just RT’ing one of Ace’s tweets.
I’m sure the sycophants tried the block and report tomfoolery with that ID too, but after 15K tweets, it won’t take hold.
There’s fun at Ca Rin’s FB page? BRB
He thinks Patterico brought it on himself. Like psychos will leave you alone if you let them do their thing.
Okay, I think I can sleep now. Mwah!
Now on SyFy channel: DinoCroc!
It must be monster mashup night.
My Bad, it’s actually Dinocroc vs. SuperGator. I should know these things.
Has David Carridine in one of his last roles (pre auto-erotic asphixiation).
For Oso:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ts8qZqOmNNY
I could be mistaken, but I don’t think he made any more movies post auto-erotic asphyxiation.
Sean, it was all a poorly thought out plan to move into the Zombie genre.
Well, phat, it wouldn’t be the first time…
Goddammit, Carin asked us to go over there …
I just punched the first idiot I saw.
Great job, wiser.
Ha! It was wiserbud.
Awright, goodnight. Don’t let the derpbugs bite.
wakey wakey.
LOL, Andy. I mean wiser.
My sister has gotten into it with folks before. It’s no biggie. Perhaps I should invite her to lapeerpalooza?
*snort
Note for Carin in the morning. Your FB friend Rob is a coward, and I have more balls than he does.
Rob is someone that I don’t really know. I have ANOTHER friend (who I do know) who likes to debate me, and he likes to invite other people to debate with me as well. I accept their friendings figuring that they can hang.
But, yea, weak tea.
We have ‘Super Shark’ showing on one of the 8 big screens in the ‘video wall’. Just saw the shark blow up.
HA – we were watching that too. We are SUCKERS for those bad movies.
I’m past the point of debate. Most people simply don’t know what they are talking about, and it makes the whole thing unfair.
It’s like me trying to talk about football.
It’s early.
Jazz, I live near Belleville now.
Also, They Live was hilarious. Aliens are dismantling the middle class! In 1988!
MARRY AND REPRODUCE
Scary shit, man.
I feel so Wiserbud this morning.
*shoos Ca Rin and Laura away from door*
I see light coming from under the door …
*calls Wiser/Wiserbud/Andy
Too early.
Pupster! NO!
http://youtu.be/yEtg7QZCbPk
* calls Cyn and asks if she’d like to go to breakfast
*puts on bunny slippers and sunglasses*
Let’s do this, Carin.
My chickens cluck some of the time now.
Still no eggs.
You just up the street from the RV shops, leon? I’ve only seen place with more RVs than Belleville, MI, and that was pretty much all of Northern Indiana.

Good night, Ladies!
Just got home, will stay up for a bit to make sure I time my sleep cycle for another 12 hr midnight shift.
Man, twitter sure does die down after midnight. Need to start following some Aussies I guess. I had to unfollow Kruiser (who never sleeps), he was like a stream of consciousness clogging my timeline. About 1/10 of his tweets are interesting.
Sweet dreams, Phat.

G’nite, phat.
G’morning, Cyn.
I’m SW of town, so out by me it’s mostly small farms. Can’t say I’ve seen that many RVs.
This is so sweet:
Blockquote>Many Youngstown attendees at Biden’s event do not support him or the president.
Bob McClain and his wife, Myra, came to M7 Technologies to support their friends’ family business. Neither supports the Obama-Biden ticket.
“We are friends of the owners — that is why we came, to show support for the Garvey family,” said Bob. At 71, he’s retired but volunteers full-time as a counselor for Mahoning Valley small-business owners.
“Our vote is going for who is best to lead on the economy. That is Romney, for us,” said Myra as her husband nodded.
Richard Furillo stood with his son Matthew at his son’s workplace; a lifelong Democrat, he voted for Obama in 2008 but won’t again. “I don’t know why I did it but I cannot stand any more ‘change,’” he said, referring to the president’s old campaign slogan.
Father and son both said they attended the event to support the company.
