Good morning, and welcome to another last-minute edition of Hunky Hump Day. It’s 32 degrees here, so let’s snuggle up with some hot babes to warm up.
This one is imitating me when I realized it was Wednesday.

Thank you for your attention, and y’all have a good day.

Good morning, cool kids.
Happy Birthday, Wiser aNd Wiserbud!
I posted the header in honor of HHD, although all of these homos look like they could kick my ass.
Happy birthday to Carin’s boy too. And Michael!!
Some fine cupcakes you got there Cyn
Thanks, Roamy!

This is one of the best things Tushar has ever said. 10,000 points to be used for grill accessories and homemade pakoras.
Morning, children. Happy birthday, Wiser.
Packing done!
I will be invoicing by 1:00.
Best day ever!

Agreed. I was going to nominate it for the CHOF but we don’t have one. Probably because of our racism.
Happy Birthday, wiser, wiserbud, Car in’s kid, and Michael.
Extra bonus that it falls on HHD, amirite wiser?
>> Gimme a few minutes, and I’ll have HHD up.
If it takes a few minutes they’re gay.
Which is, plausible.
Ghey.
*totes meant to do that*
If the website is going to be working for “the vast majority of Americans” by the end of this month (10 days), but the back end systems haven’t been built yet, including payments and tax credits, and those aren’t scheduled to be done until the middle of January (WTF), how can they make the first statement?
Unless they are talking about the majority of Americans who get their health insurance through their employers. Who have been delayed from the mandate. And have yet to experience the joys of Obamacare.
Hmmm.
I think it’s because regardless of whether or not you pay, the policy is in force Jan 1.
They’ll make up some garbage about delaying invoicing or some shit, then send a double or triple bills, then the FSA will freak the fuck out.
Does anyone use TOR?

I didn’t know Obama was an equestrian.

Target of Rapamycin?
Is that rape rape?
>>>Target of Rapamycin?
Is that rape rape?
And what would you rape a mouse in?
I really liked Tushar’s comment yesterday too, and honestly think that is the salient point regarding Obama and progressives in general.
They honestly believe they can just make-up the world they way they want it to be – with a wish and a command.
Which leads into another related point – In one of my books here (behind me, near the dildo perhaps) is a good bit about how conservatives KNOW man and man’s weakness. Utopia and perfection can only be achieved in heaven – no here on earth. Liberals think they can make everything equal and perfect here and now.
They are wrong. They do not understand that man is flawed. Perfect man, and you can have your perfectly equitable society.
Don’t you see that’s what they are doing, perfecting man? Communism and socialism both do this.
By rounding them down to the lowest common denominator.
Fascism is just a method of state control, different from the other two, but compatible.
Thinking about evil is hard. Blame and shame is easy.
No, J’ames, they’re not perfecting man. They’re pretending if they create the “perfect” world, man will become perfect.
That’s why they always excuse bad behavior with “root causes” and the “environment.”
People aren’t bad – they came from a bad home, etc. If only they’d been surrounded by the progressive utopia, they would have been good.
Perfect man, and you can have your perfectly equitable society.
Sounds both boring and impossible, Progressives believe they can do it through legislation/command-and-control.
What Jay said….
Roamy,
I am glad you liked that comment. After I wrote that, I refreshed the page a few times, waiting for some response, and then went away. H2 folks are not easy to impress.
It’s also their distorted, unrealistic view of government. To liberals, government is powerful and capable of anything. It’s massive enough to solve any problem. They don’t see it for what it is, mostly inept, slow lumbering, wasteful – hell the only reason they get anything done is they spend 3-4 times what you have to spend to accomplish something.
They have limited experience in the private sector so they understand nothing about efficiency, lowering cost, competition. Using contractors doesn’t help, contractors offer solutions that “fit” government (i.e. replicate massive lethargic wasteful things and processes).
GCI is the perfect example of a successful government contractor. They realized long ago their business model had to focus on gaining government contracts, not delivering product.
In fact, I would be immodest enough to suggest that my comment can be highlighted on some bigger blog.
Hey! Hi Dave! Didn’t see you there.
Lovely job on HHD, Roamy.
I must be getting to “that age” now – I look at these fine specimens and feel like a dirty old lady when I realize that every last one of them is prolly young enough to be my son.
That isn’t enough to keep me from going up to Bachelor #2 and helping him right back out of that shirt he’s putting on, though….. 😛
They’re coming for your DNA now.
Repeat after me: “I wish to remain silent – I decline to answer any questions. Am I free to go?”
Tushar, it is a most insightful poat. I saved it for future reference. With your permission, if I were to ever use it or refer to it, I promise to credit you as the author.
I think I have figured out what went wrong.
As we read in the Bible, God said, let there be light, and there was light.
Obama, being a man of superficial intelligence, decided to be God and said, let there be healthcare for all.
What is not said in the Bible, and what Obama is too stupid to grasp: God did not just say those words. He built it. He designed the whole laws of Physics, and Quantum mechanics, and those goddamned ways in which light behaves as a wave and a particle at the same time. The stuff He did was so complicated, that only a few people like Einstein and Max Planck can even begin to fathom how much we don’t know about what the hell is going on there.
When God said “let there be light” those were just the release notes and readme.txt on His tremendous technology project called the universe. That was just His Apple One type keynote address.
Obama assumed that his proclamation will result in healthcare for all.
You fucking didn’t build that, Barry.
I only have four Vince Flynn books left to read before I’m done with the series.
Boo.
MJ, that is fucking profound.
Thanks. I took my own advice and copied from an Asian.
hey, quick drive-by.
thanks, everyone, for the b-day wishes.
So far, today is one of the best ever!
Honest! I simply can’t imagine a better day than this!
Maybe I’ll have more time to think about what a great day it has been when I get home from work tonight at 9:30.

Happy Birthday, Wiserbub.

Truly impressive comment MJ. I’ll be sure to credit you when I use it.
Liberals think they can make everything equal and perfect here and now.
I think some of the useful idiots think that, but the ones calling the shots are grifters intent on enriching themselves and in order to do that to an optimal level, they must control others. Thus, the social justice bullshit, government is big enough and knows best bullshit, the take out anyone who tries to thwart us bullshit. Ka-ching.
Oh, and I’m still dealing with this ebay thing. It’s giving me a stomachache.
Truly impressive comment MJ. I’ll be sure to credit you when I use it.

Thanks, I appreciate that.
I already used it, MJ. The table is much steadier with that piece of paper under it.
Go ahead and leave negative feedback on the buyer Beansese. Preemptive strike.
Mrs. Pupster had a buyer like that on a pair of Uggs, buyer claimed they were counterfeit “because they feel too tight to be a size 5”. Nothing made her happy, refund wasn’t enough, she just kept digging until my wife cut off all communication and hasn’t sold on Ebay since.
How are you liking the Flynn books, HS?
Will you be moving on to Brad Thor afterwards? Pretty close to the same genre.
Of course, you could try the Longmire series from Craig Johnson. I’ve really enjoyed those lately. I’m on #7.
Jay, I’ve been listening to the books, and I love them. They are so addictive. I listen while I drive, and I can get in a good forty-five minutes in bed. If I try to read in bed I’m lucky if I can make fifteen minutes. Then I can’t figure out where I left off, so I end up reading and rereading. I swear I can read a chapter five times and still not recognize if I read it.
Anyway, I’ll give the Brad Thor books a try. I also love Daniel Silva, but I’ve listened to everyone of his books, many of them twice. He only publishes one a year, and the next one is not due until July.
I stopped selling things on ebay too. Suboptimal experience.
I just donate the stuff I don’t need and sell the bigger things on Craigslist.
I got to carry a gun and feel like a big boy twice this week to meet CL people!
Go ahead and leave negative feedback on the buyer Beansese. Preemptive strike.
Can’t do that pups. As ornery and foul-mouthed as I can get, I do have integrity and expect the same from others in these circumstances. I have bit my tongue hard in responding to this lady because of some sense of business decorum and, I don’t know if you know this, but women can be f*cking evil to deal with. She may escalate and I don’t want to come off as batshit unreasonable if ebay gets involved.
It’s her fault if she didn’t pay attention to the picture or description. Had she questioned me prior about something she thought was important, which wasn’t mentioned, I would have gladly supplied a picture.
Btw, I gave her positive feedback after she paid me.
(I’ve bought and sold within collector communities for years. It’s a tricky business with some of these freaks.)
>>>Thanks, I appreciate that.
Well, I mean, it’s only fair. If you’re going use something that someone said, that person should get credit for it.
If you wave the gun around at CL meets, sometimes you get the stuff for free!
I’ve had good luck with Craigslist with both buying and selling, I don’t know what you guys are so paranoid about, people on Craigslist are just like you and me.
*unsheathes bayonet, picks teeth*
I’ve only used Craigslist to rent my condo and so far I’ve had nothing but great tenants.
I did have an asian tranny come to look at the place once. That was kind of funny. Drove a Jag.
If she gives me negative feedback, I will be able to respond. So there is that. I just don’t want to give her a refund if she is telling me the ‘tags’ are no longer attached (it’s a collectible)…which they were when I shipped (but never mentioned in the sale).
I’m not sure how well these items I’m selling would do on craigslist. Many collectors go to ebay to look for them* and some are willing to pay more since some are ‘retired’. I’ve made money on a couple of them.
*very few places sell them here in the US and those that do, tack on the shipping costs from the UK
>>Thanks, I appreciate that.
>>Well, I mean, it’s only fair. If you’re going use something that someone said, that person should get credit for it.
Ha ha ha! Burn, MJ, burn!
We sold a couch and loveseat on CL last week. I figured the threat of being shot was implied as they came up my driveway so I didn’t bother to have a weapon ready.
Farmers have guns. It’s like a law or something.
Hotspur, you can reuse that comment at will. I won’t mind if you correct my grammar and spelling mistakes either.
Ahem.
All your comments belong to us.
My husband likes to go to auctions out in the boonies. He buys box loads of shit – i.e. tractor parts, tools, for a few bucks, and then sells them for a tiny profit on Craigslist.

Beasn, I wouldn’t give a refund. You know the tag was there. It’s her word against yours. One negative review is not going to hurt. If anything, it very possibly hurts her.
Hahahahaha
Jay…
Hotspur, the negative feedback does not worry me. What worries me is ebay siding with her and making me give her a refund plus the cost of getting my item back – MINUS the tags I knew were there.
Hopefully they will view it as a “He said/She said.” I hope they will side with you that she bought what was in your picture. If she wouldn’t have bought it without the tags, she should have asked before she bid since they did not appear in the picture. Like new doesn’t mean new.

Good day, people who are sabotaging Obamacare.
Okay, those are kind of cute, pups. Mine would totally be a pig.
Ebay changed their format a few years ago to ‘always side with the buyer.’
A lot of people stopped selling through them over it. There are just too many ways for buyers to screw sellers now.
True story. My husband was in Vegas this past weekend, visiting a visiting German coworker, here on business. He forgot to lock his rental before turning in for the night.
The next morning, he was going to meet up with him for breakfast before both had to part ways. He goes down to the car and finds a young hobo asleep in the backseat. HAHAHA
He had to get hotel security to help get him out. He’s also grateful the guy didn’t leave any body fluids or chunks behind.
He then forgot to lock their (son was with him) room’s sliding glass door – 1st floor, I think.
I texted the boy and told him to be alert for his dad since he is becoming more and more like grandpa.
Son texted back – ‘I KNOW. He stepped off the curb to cross the street against the light while there was a ton of oncoming traffic’.
*facepalm*
In his defense he is battling a bug that is kicking his butt.
Laura, that is what I’ve heard. A lot of the collectors I know stopped using ebay for that reason besides the jump in the fees.
I’ve never bought nor sold on eBay.
Plus when you look up ‘buyer protection’ and ‘seller protection’, the buyer’s deal has more options. The seller’s looks like you don’t have an option other than to wait to see what the buyer is going to do to you.
I used the escalation process once because I bought a bear and received an elephant. That is a legitimate gripe.
Holy crap this is a great HHD.
Bonus!

Hi Mare. What have you been doing today?
How many carbs have you had today?
Those are funny, mare.
I just got done watching Bush on Leno. Hilarious. Loved when he was showing his paintings. Leno – I can’t even see the numbers on that one. HAHAHAHA
If I have a headache, sound makes it worse.
The Leno painting was pretty good. That would be awesome to have.
“Now I can’t make fun of him”..LOL
No, it’s helping. The headache is from shopping and my period. Metal is taking me away to my happy place.
“How many carbs have you had today?”
Oh my gosh, how did you know I just picked up a pumpkin spice cookie???
Gah.
I’m heartbroken. I’m happy that the house sold without going on the market, but it’s gonna suck to actually let it go. I loved that fucking house and put a ton of work into it.
Closing day is Friday.
I liked your house too, MJ. Sorry, you had to move on.
Found some live QOTSA on facedouche.
Onward and upward MJ. A home with just happy memories.
At least it’s still someone’s home.
Unlike my Detroit house.
That makes me just sick.
Today kicked ass.
Closing day is Friday.
Gotta schedule those for earlier in the week for safety’s sake. Any screwups and you’ll have to be back at the table on Monday.
Also, sympathy. I was very sad when I finally sold my house in Ann Arbor. We did so much work to it after we moved out that I was pissed I never got to live in it like that.

Working on my speech to the ROTC cadets.
Wiser’s advice to ‘just drink a lot and wing it’ is resonating strongly with me.

On the way back to the office a little bit ago I was listening to an NPR story on sexual assault in the military with hearings in front of congress.
What utter hysteria. (and I use the term quite purposefully)
He’s giving Wiser credit for that gem?
Well I never………..
“What utter hysteria. (and I use the term quite purposefully)”
Agreed. 26,000 admit experiencing “sexual assault” in an “anonymous” survey, however, only 3000 report it.

I’m going to go out on a limb here and predict that there will be fewer people with insurance under Obamacare.
Mostly because he’s black, though.

Lots fewer MJ, but there will be a handful of success stories.
Yes, listening to that cow, Oprah (who literally could hire someone to slap food out of her hand) tell us about how racist we were to elect a black President, makes me want to scream like Scott’s goats.

Anise and brandy. You have to use real lard or they don’t layer correctly.
Anise and brandy.
Yes! Although I don’t suppose most recipes call for enough of either to leave a bitter flavor.
I always thought George’s afro was bullshit.
And I’m not sure about layers. These were like somebody tried turning a baking powder biscuit into a cracker.
Maybe the lard was old. Shouldn’t be bitter. I think my Grammo Isabel ate nothing but biscochitos for the last 10 years of her life. (Lived to be 100)

Work in Jax, MCPO. I live a bit north of there.
Der. You had shrimp.
Ugh. Abortion troll at the HQ. Ruined the ONT. *sigh*
Well, in a truly classic finish to a simply spectacular day, I just learned that the job I was really, really hoping was gonna come through… One that I was basically told was mine… and one that would have allowed me to quit all my other jobs, ain’t gonna happen. Organization is folding instead, due to really bad management by the guy I was going to replace.
Instead, they are declaring bankruptcy and going to attempt to sell themselves off.
‘Scuse me while I pour myself a really large glass of vodka.
On the other hand, I woke up this morning, and I wasn’t Wiser OR Wiserbud, so I’ve got that going for me.
Shrimp scampi is easy to screw up.
To much/too little garlic. Overcooking the shrimp. Too much butter.
I hate to admit this but I’d grudgefuck Kathleen Sebelius if the opportunity presented itself. I’d make damned sure she didn’t get anything out of it though. Which is not a problem.
*pours glass of vino to drink with wiser
……….and the timing of my last post was entirely fortuitous.
>>>I wasn’t Wiser OR Wiserbud, so I’ve got that going for me.
Hell, at this point, I would kill to not be me.
I wonder of I could make a comedy act out of my life?
“True story…..”
Crap! Sorry Wiser. Really hoping that you’ll get to give up your 5 Obamajobs.
Aw damn, wiser, that just bites.
>>>I wonder of I could make a comedy act out of my life?
“True story…..”
If Seinfeld can pull it off…..
BCoch/PG,
Thanks for the offers. Maybe I’ll stop by on my way to whatever beach I chose to drink myself to death on…
We got some badass sandhills out here. No ocean though.
bcorchran81 – Yulee or Ferindina?
It’s just shocking, Wiser, because Obama’s done such a bang-up job with the economy …
Mr car in says all the shops around him are really having a hard time.
Oh look!
Voicemails on my home phone!
“Hi! It’s your mom! Hope you have a great birthday!”
“Hi! It’s your mother-in-law! Hope you have a great birthday!”
“Hi! It’s your sister-in-law! Hope you have a great birthday!”
*drinks
At least it happened before you signed-on with them. Would have sucked to try to get your other five jobs back.
Hugs, wiserbuns.
>>>It’s just shocking, Wiser, because Obama’s done such a bang-up job with the economy …
Well, I had it really good for a couple of years, a long time ago, so I guess I was due….
Or something.
(((Group Hug)))
>>>bcorchran81 – Yulee or Ferindina?
Lol. Ongoing debate between the wife and I. Our address says Fernandina. But, leave our neighborhood and drive 100 feet to the other side of the road…Yulee.
Wiserdude,
Was gonna wish you a happy, but it sounds like it’s just gone pear-shaped.
Was that the medical-software gig that you had hopes for?
Sorry mon…
>>>Would have sucked to try to get your other five jobs back.
Good point.
I feel much better now!
Wiser, friend of mine (dual qualified, she’s both a Moron *and* a Lexican) got a dream job working for a charity.
For 3-1/2 months.
Just bought a new house, and is adopting two tweeners.
>>>Was that the medical-software gig that you had hopes for?
No, I’m doing that now, but no base pay, commission only.
This was a management position. To be groomed to become president of company within 2years.
Guess I’ll have to start making a shitload more cold calls tomorrow.
I was really hoping that this was finally my chance to get out of sales entirely.
Oh well, time for dinner.
Mmmmmmmmm, cold leftover pizza…..
It truly is a wonderful life.
>>>Just bought a new house, and is adopting two tweeners.
Ouch.
Wiser, whichever beach you choose, stay away from that place near Madison. The rocks are too slippery there.
Good point.
I feel much better now!
Yeah sure right. *pours more vodka into your glass*
>>>The rocks are too slippery there.
Right now, not seeing the down side here….
Cheer up, Wiser. Maybe Wiserbride will give you your birthday spanking.
At work, (gay) sister of co-worker is fostering two little kids. The restaurant is completely nepotistic, and the (gay) bartender is best friends with …
Oh, now this is getting way too complicated.
Anyway, (gay) bartender brought in the two foster kids – he’s head-over-heels in love with them and is babysitting for free, etc. ANYWAY, the kids are 2 of 7 who were being severly neglected. Head lice, malnourished, under the care of a 10 y/o … the baby is in the hospital it’s so sick … been there for weeks and weeks.
WTF is wrong with people? Anyway, the two kids are lucky, and they’re being loved right now.
I try to not be too much of a PollyAnna. You have your family. You have your health. You have friends that care about you. You make me laugh. BTW It is always about me!
Alright, the troll ruined the thread at the HQ and I need to be getting to bed anyway.
Happy BDay Wiser. Remember the words of a wise man, “Life sucks. It really really does. It’s up to you to make it funny.”
Night Hostages.
Seriously, Wiser. You think you have it rough?
I’m out of vodka.
>>>Cheer up, Wiser. Maybe Wiserbride will give you your birthday spanking.
Hmmmm….
I’ll wake her up and ask her.
Night, Bcochran.
>>>You make me laugh.
Then I’m the richest man in the world.
😉
I’ll wake her up and ask her.
Maybe Lauraw can send the monkeys?
>>> “Life sucks. It really really does. It’s up to you to make it funny.”
Well, I get the feeling God is laughing his ass off right about now.
BCoch,
At AOS, if you don’t prepend the ‘website’ in your sig with “http://”, it reverts to “minx.cc”.
You might wanna’ fix that…
>>>I’m out of vodka.
It’s only 8 o’clock. Go get more.
See? I’m a problem-solver!
Maybe Lauraw can send the monkeys?
Ought to check for light under the door first.
Car in, we fostered kids when I lived in TX. I have stories. My Mom used to beat the crap out of me, but she really helped quite a few kids.
Ought to check for light under the door first.
well, duh.
This isn’t my first go-around.

well, you’ve mentioned that. the couple that is fostering – I dunno what kind of parents they will make because I really don’t know them. I do know that whatever the situation, it is a fukksize better than what they came from.
BRB. Have to go stake out space in the family bed.
Ha. I should go to bed. Or read a book in bed.
I bet if you blow their chickens, they’ll leave you more room Oso.
Maybe I’ll make my eternal misery complete and get a job at a country music station.
>> Right now, not seeing the down side here….
That’s because you ain’t pouring booze over my arm and trying to light it to cauterize a wound, all the while holding my own goddamn camera to take pictures of it.
You saved my arm. I appreciate that.
>>>You saved my arm. I appreciate that
Everybody gets one.
Country music? Josh Turner’s Birthday is today!
>>>Josh Turner’s Birthday is today!
squee.
Haha Cyn, they sleep on Dan’s side of the bed. That forces Dan to the middle, and gives me the edge. I just threw down a gauntlet of body pillows and blankets.
>>>That’s because you ain’t pouring booze over my arm
But, I will say, I’m not sure I would be so ready to waste the booze about now.
He used to be Squee because of his voice. His hips are as wide as his shoulders now so…meh.
Country music?!
Oh lawdy reegis, you need an intervention.
Sohos misses all y’all and sends her love.
>> But, I will say, I’m not sure I would be so ready to waste the booze about now.
It was the moment. When my arm was on fire.
We can’t have it back, but we had it.
Josh Turner’s Birthday is today!
He should be in a future HHD.
>>>We can’t have it back, but we had it.
So many moments that I will cherish forever….
Quick poll:

Wait a minute…you edited! Shod should have cut you off!
>>>Shod should have cut you off!
Ah, but I was competent enough to notice my mistake and fix it.
So… No click yet.
I was just cut off. Drinking Vintage Tap Water. Bleh!
Drinking Vintage Tap Water
I hope it at least is a good
yearminute.Cyn, are you feeling better? No more yoghurt for you!
>>>I was just cut off. Drinking Vintage Tap Water. Bleh!
I don’t drink water. Fish fuck in it.

I am, thank you. I am only just now nibbling some peanut butter and cheese crackers, otherwise I did soup, water, and gatorade all day.
Fuggin’ greek yogurt.
>>>Fuggin’ greek yogurt.
That sounds….. complicated
That sounds….. complicated
Only a little.
For only $19.95 per minute, I will explain every vivid detail.
G’night Wiser and the rest of you rabble.
The only good thing I have to say about my tepid tap water: Using the same ice I had left over from my bourbon! Green living, yo!
G’night, Mcpo! Mwah!
Sweet dreams, MCPO.
And for the record, I’m a rouser. M’waaah
>>>G’night Wiser and the rest of you rabble.
G’night, stranger
I’mma calling it a night too.
Sweet sweaty dreams to all.
G’nite, snausages!
Happy B’Day wiser, in spite of it all…
>>>Happy B’Day wiser, in spite of it all…
Thanks, buddy.
I’m out too.
Got to find the inner strength to start the process yet again.
You’ll find it. G’night.

It’s not midnight here… Happy Birfday Wiser!

Good morning all!
Slow day today. I need it.
Oh no! MJ!

Poor MJ. He’s going to be so upset.
wakey wakey
Lazy hostages.
Fack. my neck/necklace area hurts from rest a 65 pound bar on it during crackfat this morning.
Don’t rest the bar on bone. You might need to work on shoulder/wrist mobility, but you should try to bring the bar down to rest across/be cradled by your rhomboids and rear deltoids.
Cradling is the goal, but it takes some hypertrophy that the menfolk here will call you a dude for having, even though they don’t have it themselves.
Had to get Rocketboy and Mr. RFH out the door early. Rocketboy has his senior retreat today and tomorrow. He waited until this morning to pack.
Glad Mr. RFH is driving him, because I neeeeeeeed this cup of coffee. *sip*
Bar position: http://youtu.be/g2tyOLvArw0
Car in has rhomboids?
Gross
I was doing front squats/lunges.
Gross.
Rhomboids are a scam
/Scott
My back squat, I can rest it on my muscles.
Which, gross, right?
“As the Fed kept its stimulus spigot open, investors were so drawn to inflation-protected securities that the yields on 10-year TIPS plunged into negative territory in late 2011 before hitting an all-time low of minus-0.87% last December. That means investors were willing to accept an almost-certain loss of nearly 1% of their investment to forestall what some feared would be a much bigger loss on other types of debt due to inflation. ”
From the WSJ (Inflation-Protected Bonds Tumble
Price of TIPS On Track for Biggest Losses Since Introduction in 1997).
I don’t know a lot about finance but I think this is a bad thing.
