Welcome, ladies and gentlemen, to Monday. The tyrannical horror show of TFG the SCOAMF continues apace, so I know you’re at least somewhat disheartened. The dollars you hold got smaller yesterday because “shut up, it’s a free lunch” per aspie douchebag economists like Paul Krugman, Tyler Cowen (WTF, T?), and Ben “Weimar” Bernanke. WWWIII is getting warmed up right on top of oil we should have claimed decades ago by right of sanity, and right next to an ally that TFG dislikes because he hates the Joooos without Ds after their names.
In the face of all this — all this — Monday has come again, glowing and pregnant with the promise of renewal. Monday says to odds like this “fuck you, I’ve got a mug full of coffee and a second-day hangover and I’ll be damned if I’ll let TFG bring me down”. Monday un-ironically quotes the Merovingian and says “I have survived your predecessors, and I will survive you.”
Be like Monday, no matter what, just keep coming. Never quit.
To start off, some guest submissions from XBrad of Bring the Heat, Bring the Stupid fame. If you think they’re trannies, take it up with him.
And now a few from my personal archives. These get captions. I call this one “my balls”.
This one is “facing the day”.
This one I just call “homina”.

Happy Monday morning (no tuckers) and Happy New Year to any of my Jewish peeps
Quiet today. Foreboding.
Too intimidated to comment here.
Twitter might be better suited for our lurkers. No one pays attention to anything unless it’s a tweet from Iowahawk.
I guess lurking here is like listening to a morning radio show with less talent and a fleeting ability to stay on topic.
In that case, I invite our listeners to call in and tell us about themselves. The truth if it’s funny, lies otherwise.
They are intimidated by me.
I’ve lost 5 lb since August 19. Still looking for that 6-pack, though.

Good Big Balls Morning, cool kids.
The Constitution was signed 225 years ago today and today is the one year anniversary of OWS.
Irony.

howdy y’all. Nice batch of tuckers this morning.

That gave me a good chuckle.
Sequestration will either be a non-event or funemployment for me. I think it’s about 80% chance of the former.
Good read at the HQ, Laura.

Jay, really? Do I strike you as a follower? I MAKE MY OWN GODDAMN RACE.
When I ran I didn’t count miles. I counted houses.
“27 today. Pretty good”
Well, I figured you’d be behind a little, since you have to take twice as many steps as everyone else.
Sorry!
You know, if you get way behind, you can download a GPS app to your iPhone to figure out where you are and get directions.
I’m just kidding. There was a point in the race where the 10K and 5K split. I followed the wrong everything. Oh well, it was sponsored by Hooters so there were boobs. (besides me)
Kinda figured that. I can’t imagine how to keep the routes straight.
Plus, boobies!
Usually there are signs. Or different start times.
Anyone recede anyone else’s gums today?
I was going to try and stay at this job until February. Now my goal is November 7. It could be next week.
(I’ve been kind of looking elsewhere, but only retail/fast food are hiring).
Rumor has it, where I am, there will be no full timers in a few years time. They’re not hiring any and they are weeding the ones they have, out.
I just heard that at our Local Wal-mart, they let EVERYONE go who was approaching some sort of higher-pay anniversary. A soccer friend was let go after working there for years and years.
Ugh, not good news, on the Wal Mart front. My MIL works there.
Yep, Car in, a lot of old-timers were let go. Fired them for some obscure reason. BUT, you can reapply after 30 days……….as a part timer! Then you can cut up, call in, all you want.
People are not realizing why they are doing it. There was a meeting after Barkycare was passed and they told the managers that was why. Instead of making shit up to fire people, they need to come out and tell them (hard to do when Sam’s kids are making bazillions of dollars).
They’ve also been doing it at the Sam’s around here.
Rosh Hahahah.

If it was as big as a squirrel, I totally understand.
Speaking of squirrels, one did invade my home while we were away for a couple of days. After a 10 hour car ride with a baby, coming home to squirrel shit everywhere along with knowing he sat on my kitchen table eating tootsie rolls, blood in the bathroom from where he cut himself shaving…….
I told the husband to torch it. It was better than the thought of disinfecting the whole mess the next morning.

Ah, but the administration has a plan for that, too – I seem to remember reading something last week about how HHS was going to be “allowed” to determine what “full-time” meant.
For purposes of Obamacare, dontcha know.
Wow, Andy and Lauraw both kicking butt at the HQ this morning.
It is absurd to think there will be a +4 to +11 D advantage at the polls in November. This is Reagan-Carter redux, polls showed Jimmy ahead through October, and only tightening in the last couple of weeks.
I’m not sayin Mitt will win with a Reagan landslide, but that possibility is far more likely that the stuff the pollsters are puttin out right now. This week in foreign policy has been an utter disaster for Obama, the best he can do right now is give it as little attention as possible while his media lapdogs whine about Romney instead of the actual fuckin problem.
http://www.quickmeme.com/meme/3qy93z/
At $3.45 we have the lowest gas prices in town and the lines at the pump yesterday were backed up into the street. During football. The low info voters I work with have been watching the news while on break and lunch. The whining about Romney didn’t stir any conversations, but voter ID in Pennsylvania and seeing the protesters at our embassies did. None of it complimentary to TFG.
That’s because you were at WORK, oso. Listen to the conversation at the community center, retirement home, or the union office.
Pollsters aren’t using the more expensive “likely voter” modeling yet, and are ridiculously over-sampling Ds.
EXCEPT for that Rassmussen swing-state poll released this weekend which put Romney up +2.
Obama’s schedule for this week:
On Monday, the President will travel to Cincinnati and Columbus, Ohio for campaign events. The President will return to the White House in the evening.
On Tuesday, the President will welcome WNBA Champion Minnesota Lynx to the White House to honor the team and their 2011 WNBA Finals victory. In the afternoon, the President will travel to New York City for campaign events. While in New York City, the President will tape an appearance on the Late Show with David Letterman. The President will return to the White House in the evening.
On Wednesday, the President will attend meetings at the White House.
On Thursday, the President will travel to Miami and Tampa, Florida for campaign events. While in Miami, the President will participate in a Univision and Facebook “Meet the Candidate” event to discuss education and the future of the Hispanic community. The President will return to the White House in the evening.
On Friday, the President will deliver remarks at a campaign event in Manassas, Virginia. The President will return to the White House in the evening.
It’s all he does. It’s all he’s done for months and months

Good morning, coffee chuggers.
There’s still a WNBA? Do they pay people to go to those games?
A Dem congressman from WA (Adam Smith, I think) was just on Fox talking about Iran’s nuclear program and Israel’s seeking of a “Red Line,” and he said (a couple of times) that it’s never wise to tell your adversaries what you’re going to do ahead of time.
Um, aren’t you guys the party that’s always pushing for withdrawal dates whenever we have troops overseas?
How does the Congressman defend TFG telegraphing to the world that we don’t defend our embassies and we’re willing to throw the 1ST Amendment into the trash for the ragey ragey people?
This week’s lunch (curried pork tenderloin) turned out pretty good. You are now all duly informed.
And then what happened?
You’re eating pork on Rosh Hashanah?
My covenant with God includes pork.
Also, I didn’t know it was Rosh Hashanah until you people told me it was.
You only eat lunch once a week?
you people? Said in the vicinity of my avatar?
You know what that is.
If God didn’t want us to eat pork, He never would have let us invent bacon or ribs.
I denounce myself as a person with very few Jewish friends.
Also a racist.
I had pork chops for breakfast yesterday.

Our school district always got the day off. Same with Yom Kippur. I had a few of the neighborhood kids convinced that he was a Jewish baseball player with an incredible bating average.

Melted 4 inches off my waist and even “regular cut” jeans are a little large in the hips. Had to buy a new belt today too. Rewarded myself with a turkey/swiss on a spinach wrap. . . with MAYO & MUSTARD!!
Congrats, Chief. Now, please don’t go buying “skinny” jeans.
SeanM – Regular cut or boot cut. That’s it. Been wearing since before you was borned.
If Dave is around to read this: after dilly-dallying for years about moving to Texas, I am getting serious-ish. I have realized that unless I take concrete, or at least jello steps, I will never do it. So, I have decided to pay DFW area a visit. The wife has the last week of the year off. I am taking that week off too, and we will be visiting DFW. Just scouting out the area. Whether we like it, the job scene etc. I was blown away by the kind of houses I can buy in the Plano-Garland area with my budget. If I don’t do this soon, I will be forever living in NJ and cursing myself.
Don’t stay with Michael unless you like hanging by your feet in a cave.
I love visiting NJ. I could no longer liver there.
Been wearing since before you was borned.
They were known as “dungaree pantaloons” back then, yes?
SeanM – “Work trousers”.
Sir, would you like the low-rise, skinny fit dungaree pantaloons?

Pups, Michael is not used to little ones running around knocking down stuff. I would rather not subject him to that.
Uh oh, if Tushar gets down to Texas and sees how nice it is, New Joisey won’t stand a chance.
Really throw them a loop, and visit Des Moines!
Jay, I have about had it with NJ. I start from home at 7AM, and reach home at 9PM. Extremely stressful job. I earn good money, but it is pissed away in high taxes and high cost of living. So, end of the day, I have a lower quality of life. Fuck that shit. I would rather live in Des Moines. Do they take brown people?
Tushar can stay with me, but in order to get past the guard gate, he will need to rent a truck with a lawn mower in back and pretend he is Mexican.
Looking at some Texas real estate… Why do houses have fireplaces in Texas?
Sí, hablo español. Yo soy de Guatemala.
We have 3 brown people in Des Moines, so it’s not unheard of.
Winter might be a little more brisk here, than in DFW.
Just for giggles, look up home prices in Ankeny Iowa. It’s the highest prices in the state.
DFW is miserable in the summer. Something that will remind Tushar of home!
They burn their trash.
I would rather live in Des Moines. Do they take brown people?
They took a half-brown one a few years back, but they might have gotten a case of buyer’s remorse since then.

MCPO, I just checked weather.com. Dallas had its highest recorded temperature, 112 in 1980. Since 1980, my hometown back home must have had at least a thousand 112+ days.
Pups, Michael is not used to little ones running around knocking down stuff. I would rather not subject him to that.
I actually am used to that. With little guys, the real issue is pool safety. You have to close off the back door and fence so they can’t possibly get near it if you take your eyes off them for a minute.
HAHAHA http://is.gd/V1peSA
Tushar – For that authentic Indian experience, try Houston in August.
Texas houses have fireplaces for ornamental purposes during the Christmas season. Most of them have fake ceramic logs and fake asbestos ash, and they burn natural gas.
Why do houses have fireplaces in Texas?
You need someplace to burn the Californians.
Michael, roughly where do you live? I don’t need exact location. Something like ‘about 25 minutes south west of Dallas downtown’ will do.
Of course, you can always throw a chunk of oak in there to create some wood smoke odor while you watch a football game.
I just need a rough bearing on where the rich people live….it is, um, Important for my side business.
Tushar – Does your “side business” include ninja clothing.
No ninja clothing, just messican clothes, with a pickup truck and a lawnmower in the back.
The Las Colinas community, on the north side of Irving. My house is less than 10 miles SE from the DFW terminals, so there are a lot of highways nearby to go anywhere (some are toll roads).
The houses in our neighborhood which have fireplaces were all built in the early 1900′s, so they actually were used for heating at one time (it used to get much colder here – the concrete islands have pretty much brought average temps up in the bigger cities in the winter).
Ours hasn’t worked since before we moved in, but Mr. TiFW wants to replace it instead of getting rid of it – it’s located in a spot that is kinda awkward, traffic-wise, but he’s more of a traditionalist than I am (which is saying something…..)

This is a fun read.

Actually…
Michael, yes, now I remember. You had mentioned once that you live not far from DFW airport.
If you look at google maps, zoom in on DFW, and go SE a little, you will see a triangle created be 114, 183 and 163. I’m right in the middle of that area.
Or just ask somebody where Tony Romo lives. I’m four doors away on the opposite side of the street.
Tony had a bad day in Seattle yesterday.
>> I was blown away by the kind of houses I can buy in the Plano-Garland area with my budget.
DFW, Austin, San Antonio and Houston are all good growth areas for tech, particularly Austin and SA. Summers are tough here but the rest of the year is very pleasant, and if you’re sick of brutal winters, well welcome to the land of mild winter.
No income tax. And yeah, you can buy a lot of house here for a couple hundred k.
And we gots lots of brown people.
Does it seem like the media is shooting their wad early? If they are already doing the, ‘campaign in chaos, who’s to blame, need a reset,’ narrative are they going to be able to do it again in 30 days?
I didn’t think the media did those stories until later in 2008.
I considered staying at Michael’s house for awhile. I don’t think they would have noticed except for the missing beer.
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!

Dave, NJ/NY area has one thing going for it: there are so many IT jobs that I never have to really worry about being out of job. If Austin, San Antonio are kind of like that, I am interested. I don’t care much about having many brown people around. I get along well with people of all hues. But more brown people means more Indian grocery stores. That always helps. Hmm, may be I should go to Austin in December instead of Dallas.
I need to start going to Indian grocery stores. I’m told I’m vastly overpaying for cardamom.
Leon, yes you are. Cardamom is cheap. Same with black pepper. We are not leaving in the middle ages anymore where empires were built and wars were fought over spices.
Black pepper is cheap at a normal grocer, though. On the shelf at Meijer, McCormick is pricing ground cardamom at $15 for the standard size. I go through one of those in about 4 weeks, so it’s basically a monthly subscription.
The temptation is high to move back to VA-MD area where I have lived before, have contacts and can get a job within 5 minutes if starting to look. Those places are nicer than NJ NY too. Slightly less expensive. But then that is a bit like refusing to eat a shit sandwich and having just one bite instead.
Of course, in the Indian source, you will get a transparent polyethelene pack with a sticker that says Cardamom. Hand written for all you know. It will be cheap and good quality though. BTW, in Indian stores you will get whole cardamom. Pre grinding them is a crime. The aroma vanishes soon.
I could have a 20-50% raise if I wanted to live in the DC Metro area, but I’d lose on standard of living.
Tushar, GM is in-sourcing all of its IT, building new centers around the country. Austin is hiring right now, about 500 positions. GM’s CIO is Randy Mott, former CIO of WalMart, Dell and HP.
Dave, it will take me a year or more to wrap up and make the move. Anything immediate is not much use. But I am encouraged by this news. Austin and San Antonio are tiny compared to DFW. They must have a much higher concentration of IT jobs.
This is what I want in the place I move to: decent IT jobs for me and Mrs. Good school, a commute that is less than 30-40 minutes one way. A work schedule that does not regularly have me working till 8PM, and logging in again when I get home. Activities to do nearby: water sport, shooting, hiking would be great. A big enough back yard to build forts, treehouses etc. You know, the usual American dream. What I came here for.
You know, the usual American dream. What I came here for.
Sorry, we’re fresh out. Here, you can have dreams of Obama’s father instead. No one else wants them.
Austin and SA are the hot IT towns, but you really can’t go wrong with DFW or Houston either. That “triangle”, Dallas, SA, Houston is where 90% of our population and job growth is.
And you are right in the middle of that triangle. Like a spider weaving a web using ethernet cables.
Whole herbs keep best. I prefer to buy whole peppercorns and whole cardamom and grind them right before using.
Once you grind them they start declining in quality and growing tiny mushrooms.
Laura, ever tried a spice called black cardamom? Looks like cardamom, but much bigger and black in color. It is a bit strong tasting, so best not to open the pod. Use it whole as you are cooking some gravy or curry, and remove when cooked. Gives a very robust flavor.
Cardamom, black cardamom, bay leaf, whole cloveS, carom seeds, coriander powder… All necessary for Indian cooking.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4FZbcoWrUsw
Carom? Never heard of it.
This is so cool. Why are we still using pneumatic tires?
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Pja6vKnEV4E
Laura, also called caraway seeds
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ajwain
Fennel seeds too. And Fenugreek, although the pungency may be a turnoff.
Oh, we put caraway seeds in rye bread. And fennel in sweet italian sausage.
I’ve been harvesting fresh fennel seed from the huge plants in the corner of my garden for the last week or two. Mainly to keep the plant from reforesting the whole side of the garden with its weedy offspring, but also because I am going to make sausages with them.
Shit, I have to check those plants tonight and catch whatever seed has ripened lately before the umbels shatter.
Ever chewed on fennel leaves? We used to that when I was a kid.
Once you grind them they start declining in quality and growing tiny mushrooms.
Just keep feeding my neuroses. My wife loves it when people do that.
Yes, Tush. They are sweet and licorishy! Though I usually graze on the mint instead.
LOL!!! It was so cute when she said “He’s so weird.”
Ah yes, the whole spices are a lot easier to put spice condoms on.
She puts up with it, though. Me being weird is being careful with my food and cooking most of the food I eat, and getting actual results from it.
Her being weird is buying a house that enables her expensive habit from which I’m forbidden from realizing results. She’s got me beat, and I think she knows it.
So after I begged for my dose of sympathy with all my knee bullshit at work, the week after I had the replacement, a guy had a motorcycle accident and broke BOTH his ankles. Shattered one.. they’re waiting for it to heal to see if surgery is needed later. He was in rehab for 3 weeks, home convalescence, and a wheelchair at work. He’s just now getting around on those walking crutches, that slip around your arm.
He has dealt with way more pain than me.
Perspective. A healthy but often unpleasant thing. Anyway, my problems ain’t so bad.
Ouch, that’s terrible. Sounds painful just thinking about it.
Dave, my wife forced me to sell the motorcycle. In retrospect, it was not such a bad idea.
I wasn’t forced — my wife was surprised when I did it — but it was inconvenient and just wasn’t that much fun anymore.
I used to ride bikes all the time.. my fav was an 81 Yamaha Virago, nice, nice road bike. But they made my wife nervous so I got rid of it, and then just kinda teased her once a year asking if I could buy a Harley.
Last year she said “ok, ok.. if you really want one, go ahead”
And for a while I thought about it, and decided my reflexes ain’t what they used to be, and old people here will run you over if you ain’t careful. Decided “naaah”
I sold mine when I had to drop the bike in Jacksonville, FL because some “Q-Tip” didn’t see me. Headlight on, reflective vest in international orange. . . last straw. Fun and affordable transportation in Europe, dangerous in an American city.
My dad used to manage a home healthcare business. All the young Quads and Paras were motorcycle riders. I could smoke dope at home, but I was never allowed to ride a motorcycle.

Or fear.
Romney said in a video that a lot of Americans are dependent on Govt. Now these people will never vote for Romney. This will reduce his expectedtotal vote count by zero votes.
Early in the evening, just around suppertime
Over by the courthouse they’re starting to unwind. . .
Hippies are stinky.
Can’t we all just
get alongburn the hippies?!!They’re pushing too hard too early. 50 days in 2008 time is like 560,865 days in 2012.
Four kids on the corner trying to bring you up
Willy picks a tune out and he blows it on the harp
OT: Laura – FYI… did a bit more reading… Truvia is bad. This is better:

They’re pushing too hard too early.
Who is “they”, MJ?
No weird aftertaste?

Can’t we all just

Rooster hits the washboard and people just got to smile
Blinky, thumps the gut bass and solos for a while. . .
Not the liquid when I add it to bottled water, no. I don’t know about the packets, but here’s two bits that I read that are making switch away from Truvia:

See the problem?
Hrmm, you may having something there.
FREE CLOTHES PINS DURING THE BURNING!! WOO HOO!!
Cyn – I was on that site for awhile. Zealots and diet snobs. Worse than Leon, ferchrissakes!
I was actually thinking of something more along the lines of bricking them up in a cave, but if you really want there to be fire, who am I to argue?
The Obama people and the media, BIRM. Obama is sliding in the polls from his post DNC sugar high, so they are trying anything to fight the crash.
Sooper secrit undercover video tape.
Truvia is basically garbage that Coca Cola already had on the shelf with a little stevia added for credibility.
*Adjusts tinfoil codpiece.
Worse than Leon, ferchrissakes!
See? This is a useful perspective.
I still think it’s amusing that there’s Obama ads here, though it’s the one with Bill Clinton. Bill sells snake oil better.
Worse than Leon, ferchrissakes!
Now there’s some perspective!
*winks at MCPO; pokes Leon in the ribs with finger guns and a smile*
Ooo, I love codpieces!! I dust mine with paprika when I sauté them in butter.
The Obama people and the media, BIRM.
Ahh, yes. ‘They’ them. Those them theys!
It’s how I cook vegetables on the grill. A little lemon, and a pat of butter, all wrapped in a tinfoil codpiece.
Interesting, Cyn. They pair it with inulin. Inulin is also the ‘sugar’ in Jerusalem Artichoke, a starchy root that is safe for diabetics.

I’ve been meaning to build a low berm and grow these, forever. This Spring, for sure!
Obama just goes from one foreign policy success to another. . .

ChrisP, I’m with my Mom in the big T but it’s a full time deal. Would you go to the fair and get me a couple bags scones? Thanks in advance!
Hahahahahaha, I’ve done enough poats to get “Space pens” in the category cloud!

ok, that’s fucking hilarious
“Codpiece”
Does that sound naughty to anyone else, or is it just me?
MCPO, I heard, “Yikes! and awaaaaayyyyy!” in my head with that link.
Hahahaha…..I just showed my Mom the header and she really felt bad for the kid.
Space Pens Hooray!
Mare,
The scones are now $1.25/each!
We bought exactly 0!
I got in this year on the “Senior Citizen” price! That was cool!
HAHA! I heard that too, Roamy
ChrisP I’m sending a million dollars buy me what you can.
>>Obama just goes from one foreign policy success to another
Fubby, but I stopped midway. How does it end?
Dang. I meant to say funny.
Fukksize fubby
That Tushar is a fubby guy!
I think Romney read the Ace comment thread before his press conference just now. He made a cogent case for free enterprise and against ever-expanding government.
Doubling down. I liked it.
Fuck a duck.
I only say that when things go wrong, Xbrad. Is something up?
The mask in the header IS scary AND fubby
Nah. Other than a severe lack of bacon and hookers, I’mm fine.
I can help you with the bacon.
*checks backpage.com to see if there any hookers that offer to bring bacon on outcalls or make bacon for incalls*
They are out there.
This has been running through my head for 3 hours. . .

Figured, since I can’t get rid of it, I’d share it.
I strongly suspect that this is an underserved market segment, Scott. It’s possible that XBrad’s lament is a multiple-hundred-dollar idea.
I already have that on the mp3 player, MCPO.
//goes to backpage.com and orders a hooker “with sausage” for Leon
MCPO, trade ya.

XBrad always does nice things for me.
There’ll be more hookers in the next round of Obama fundraising.
“Who gave you the 25 cents?”
“All of them!”
Saturday, we (mostly Anita) picked a bunch of produce from the garden for her to take to her church on Sunday.
Sunday morn, when we got out of the shower she went and got a dozen Walla-Walla onions(bigger than softballs) to add to the 20 pounds of green beans, the cukes, yellow crook-neck squash, carrots, parsnips, and 70 pounds of Yukon-Gold and red potatoes.
She headed-out. Then came back in the house.
WTF, O?
“I have to change a tire.”
She has been driving her ’98 Ranger for that long and never had a flat.
I aired-up the tire, so I could get it out of the garage without hurting the tire, and went to change it. The tire-shop had air-wrenched the lugs so tight that I couldn’t budge them without a 4′ cheater over the lug-wrench. It totally screwed my back.
We kinda looked at each-other and pondered “Who would have an interest in you not getting to church to share food with your family”?
Yeah, we knew who it was…
She made it down there and came back with tears in her eyes.
There are many folks out of work in our small community. The food-banks are feeding 13% of the local populace. She only brought home a few potatoes.
The folks were very glad to get the fresh produce. She did it to show them that, “If a little old lady can produce this, with Gods help, what could you do?”
Plant a garden!
I’m still smiling at the response…
Raining up to an inch and a half here tomorrow. No golf.
Guess I’ll be harassing the denizens of the innerwebtubes.
