Good morning, and welcome to another edition of Hunky Hump Day.
I was listening to a compilation of Elektra Records with a cover of this song.
Bet you didn’t expect that one.
Let’s see who is in today’s folder.
One of the Moronettes kindly posted a fireman’s calendar set.

Thank you for your attention, thanks to Pirate’s Cove for the linky love, and y’all have a good day.

Coffee’s ready.
Mr. RFH and Mini-me had a great krav maga class last night. The instructor told them to show up in street clothes and went through scenarios of being attacked in the parking lot and at the ATM. Mini-me successfully broke a choke hold in the ATM scenario, said it gave her confidence.
Mini Me is having a great year!
wakey wakey
The constant rain left my deck wet and slippery (because it’s old and made of wood). I was rushing out of the house on some dog-related issue and took a pretty bad fall last Thursday or Friday. I nothing broken, but there’s some bad bruising in the fascia on the left side of my chest, and I apparently managed to fall asleep in a way that was especially bad for it.
sleeping has been the most problematic thing for my shoulders.
real life scenarios, great idea!
Why haven’t you replaced that deck, leon? You could have Car in sand it.
Hmm, GOP +6 in a poll. Notwithstanding the skepticism that I view this with, it’s amazing what hope in a good economy will do to your voting chances.
Don’t fuck it up, GOP
Hahahahaha, yeah, I couldn’t say that with a straight face.
Can’t put your arms above your head?
I’ve been too busy going broke replacing everything else.
I keep sayin’ we need a better alternative than the GOP…I keep pointing out we should have done it in ’10 instead of trying to work within the GOP and we’d be there already…bah, what am I doing, nobody listens at the HQ, ain’t gonna listen here.
Oh well. It’s been a decent morning so far regardless and that’s what I’m going to focus on.
Another one.

This is why they don’t want body cams.
Another one? That kind of crap happens often? Can’t the idiots see the bodycam on his shirt?
Too drunk?
Too stupid?
I been talking with the LE around here. I haven’t run across one that doesn’t want a body cam. 9 times out of 10 they exonerate the Officers from false claims. Did anyone read the article?
Why do black chicks frequently have hyphenated last names? Every time I hear or see a hyphenated last name, I know it’s a black chick.
Have you heard of Murphy’s Law?
Or a feminist cunt.
Jay, Ima put the hurt on you.
Because:
1) not married, or their parents weren’t married, and they are “honoring” both.
2) they don’t believe in the patriarchy, so they won’t “take their husband’s name” when they get married.
3) they are douches
I find it very effective to put those links in when there is a serious conversation going on. It increases the clicks.
TTroy,
I assumed that car in was talking about the idiots in the streets.
I’ve never met a cop that didn’t love the bodycams just for the reason you stated. Although, there is plenty of video on YouTube that shows they can expose misconduct and rights violations as well.
Buzzfeed Jay
When the body cams were being pushed heavily several years ago, a lot of us on the right pointed out that this would happen. Are there bad cops? Sure. Are they the majority, or even a substantial minority? No. All body cams have done is demonstrate that they deal with shitheads every day, who are often willing to lie.
3) they are douches
So, she claims she was raped, Shaun King libels the cop. There should be some penalty for their actions.
Yep. Proving what I suspected, a lot of what gets screamed about is 100% bogus.
Talcum X.
But then you have dicks like that Dyson pig making public statements vilifying the cops. Why doesn’t somebody shove a pitchfork up that dude’s ass?
So, she claims she was raped, Shaun King libels the cop.M
I’d go straight to charging him with inciting others to violence.
Always loved that name Talcum X.
Stolen Pallor is pretty good too.
I’m somewhat sympathetic to police unions because of shit like this. How often prior to body cameras did some accusation like this derail an officer’s career? Especially when combined with a weak or ambitious politico willing to sacrifice a few peons?

He looks like most of the lefty geeks I knew in college.
Uh oh, New 2007 Trump Scandal!
I watched a bit long bit of the video and I’m curious what the cop was looking for/saw in the sobriety tests. I’m assuming the “tells” are more subtle. He did three of four tests – 1) stare at the light as I move it, 2) walk in a line, and then 3) stand with your foot in the air while counting (I may have missed one).
She did move her head slightly while following the light – more as the test went on. The walks line had some wobbles, but nothing crazy. And the foot in the air – she swayed a bit.
But nothing falling down. I’m just curious. Guessing that what he’s looking for isn’t exactly what you think. More subtle.
yes, they are subtle clues. The eyes moving left to right and back will pause when intoxicated, instead of smooth motion. The others have to do with balance. Backwards ABCs are an indicator of impaired thought process.
The reality on the ground (more baseless accusations than not) is what makes ferreting out bad cops difficult. There isn’t a cop out there that within the first year on the job that hasn’t faced bullshit accusations. Its just comes with the job.
As time goes on the fucking press goes ….”and the Officer has faced numerous allegations of misconduct over the years” of course never indicating that they were all unfounded fabrications…..
But I really like the trend of the cams showing these idiots completely lying. There was a preacher or NAACP dude last week that tried the same kinda shit…there is a vid on daily news today of some .gov type in New Mexico trying to get out of a DWI….hell, the recent examples I can think of vs. the number of misconduct incidents I’ve seen is way out of proportion. There was a vid over the weekend of a cop tasering a german shepard. I saw two versions, the full version showing the dog charging the officer twice before he takes action, and then the shortened version showing the cop take action to make it seem as if there was no provocation. A completely good and justified use of force, intentionally mis-characterized and edited to depict the LE in negative manner.
The Leftists are insane. On one hand only police should have guns and they will protect us, on the other hand the Police are brutal oppressors that cant be trusted……
#1 is looking for nystagmus I think
Mostly the tests are done so you get past the 10-15 minute interval required before you can get a more accurate breathalyser reading. Gives alcohol time to absorb and be present in the breath.

looks like squatter boy is out!
Ah. I wondered why they were taking SO long.
I just found it kind of interesting.
It’s funny because in Shaun’s rant, he never mentioned that she didn’t pull over for 2 or 3 miles.
Fuck all of you……….I mean…..good morning, Hostages! Hope you all are doing well! That’s absolutely what I meant.
My son grads this Friday. We have already had a conversation about expected behavior and responsibilities in return for continued room & board. I shit thee not. Throughout their childhood both kids were told that come 18 they were expected to “do something”. The expectation was set that they could abide by my rules or get their little asses out. Boy was told point blank, you either attend further schooling, join military, work full time, or just get the fuck out of my house. There is no such thing as a free ride in life.
The Lad went and did his paperwork and safety class for his full time job yesterday. The daughter beat feet to her boyfriend / Fiancee / Husband house as soon as she graduated. Daughter worked full time and school full time for four years and earned her degree. We will see what the Lad comes up with.
In the case of the shitbird who’s parents had to evict, I lay part of the blame on the parents. They failed to properly program their child.

Mornin’ BCarrot.
*nods* Brother. How goes it?

This x1000. They coddled him for years “hoping” that he’d get the hint and turn his life around.
I briefly dated a girl who had spent something like 6 years with a loser like this. He had a part time job at B&N, where they met, and he lived with his mom. She finally broke it off weeks before their wedding, when she realized that he wasn’t going to change.
I suspect that a lot of women are in the same boat. They stick around with a guy in the hopes that they’ll wake up one morning to find that he’s magically transformed into husband material. It never happens.
Ah, it’s Fleet Week. Guess we know why your mom is gone.
We know someone doesn’t read the comments here.
………we’re supposed to read the comments?
I read comments, I don’t read all the accompanying articles. That was buried at the end of that one.
In fairness, I don’t read the comments either.
I don’t think CoAlex reads the comments, either.
Jay, or anyone really, do you know if CoAl reads the comments?
tl;dr
I just read the post and then opine randomly.
Hey guys, do you know of any good political/legal/gaming/book podcasts out there? Preferably ones with lots of swear words.

We just figured that you had confused us with MushroomGardenersQuarterly.com.
Guys, just wanted to let everyone know that AtC and I are going to be continuing our podcast which will cover politics, entertainment (video games, movies, books, etc), social stuff. Should be fun. Oh, and there will be a lot of swearing.
That reminds me, I have another dryad’s saddle that’s ready for harvest. I really should walk the woodline and check for others.
Marty, I’m going back to 2016 again…
No recommendations? Darn it. I guess back to the theology podcasts. This week… GNOSTICISM!
well played, alex
Comments? What the fuck are comments?
BTW, Bcochran, did you and AtC ever put together a list of recommended books on the basics of the law? I didn’t hear it in the last podcast, but maybe I missed it (I listen at work and there are distractions).
Man, I’m a couple of ‘casts behind. (Last one I heard was the one with Schlichter, so it’s not like I heard a bad one last or anything…)
Hey Bcoch, what link should we use for your podcast? I saw this in bing search:
https://www.stitcher.com/podcast/drift-compatible-podcast/e/
But that has the latest. Is there a different one? I was gonna put it in the links.
Should we have an audio section? Anyone? Bueller?
No.
This pepper is way too small
Jay, I swear to God…
CoAl – We have not yet. We actually should be recording tonight. Kind of a late/special ep due to family medical crap and family visiting. Try and get it in then.
BC – Schlichter is gonna do another ep with us. He agreed to come back on when his latest book is getting close to being published.
JiA – Stitcher works just fine. You can find the episodes on itunes and at podbean too.
Can someone take away Jay’s posting privileges?
Wait….I have keys. Can I do it? Maybe……
It’s almost time for a big gardening post. I can feel it in my bones. I could feel it in your bones too, but Scott made me promise to stop that stuff when we got married.
I think the sun and hot work zonked me a bit. I just dug three beds in the hard clay that used to be lawn. Covered them with my homemade compost and also leaf compost from the transfer station. Then hay. I started tripping and doing stupid stuff so I came inside for water and could feel waves of heat coming off me. Felt quite goofy for a while there.
OK, Time to go outside and fill the new paths with chips.
If I don’t come back, just know that your father and I love you very much and we want the best for you.
Know what, maybe I should rest a little while longer.
Y’all just give anyone keys to this joint, don’t you?
I made the mistake of forgetting to tell my second wife she had to get rid of her boyfriend when we got married……my bad!
meh, other peoples bones just aren’t up to advertised value.
Huh. Did you know there are marriage puns?
I need to track down BCoch’s podcast. Put it on Spotify so I don’t have to work for it.
I’ve tried quite a few podcasts. Other than a couple of knife ones, the Rubin Report is the best. So many of them are trying so desperately to be funny, it’s horrible.
Laura, have you tried raised beds? Or marking where you want a plot to be, laying down a nice layer of play/builder’s sand, then covering it up with hay/leaves/compost and waiting a season?
I was a lazy gardener, back when I could do that sort of thing, and that was what I would do. Mostly the raised beds, because I am also impatient, but we don’t have to worry as much about frost lines and such down here.
I would also lay thick newspaper or cardboard over the ground, then cover it with good dirt. I don’t like weeding, either….
Oh, and Roamy – THANK YOU!!!!!!!
PePe, I’ll see about adding it to Spotify. Thanks for the suggestion.
Do messicans still sell fresh oranges on the side of the road in Florida?
Well, there are folks with more melanin than me selling fruit on the side of the road, but I don’t know what variety they are.
I used to visit Daytona A LOT, and I saw them everywhere.
My buddy is in Tampa this week visiting family, and I have a newfound addiction to fresh oranges. I have a plan…
I thought global warming killed all the oranges, when it froze them.
No, that was Net Neutrality.
I heard it was cankers or chancres doing them in.
Some kind of pestilence.
Some kind of pestilence.
===
Hillary is killing Florida citrus now?!?!
What would Anita Bryant say?
It was Cankles. She wrecks everything.
If global warming were real, I could have an orange grove.
Fix your deck first, leon.
looks like squatter boy is out!
He said he’s going to appeal. HAHAHAHA. Yeah, his parents contributed to that. If they had any backbone, they would have gone straight home, changed the locks, and set his shit out in the yard.
Heh, Effective use of text messages with opposing political parties
Btw, didn’t he say he was trying to get back custody of his kid? How can he do that if he isn’t working to support a kid?
BTW, the above link is safe for Hotspurs.
*pictures a little blanket or sweater on a tiny chili*
Dawwww..
The last episode of ‘The Middle’ played last night. It was very sweet.
One of the best shows ever.
Fix your deck first, leon.
No need, it’s covered with grit from the roof shingles now. Won’t be slippery again anytime soon.
Ah yes, the “sanding the icy sidewalk” strategy. Well played!
Are you reroofing too?
So the NFL players can’t kneel. How am I going to get my blowjobs?
Start wearing Crocs?
Have been re-roofing since last Wednesday, that was why I fell in the first place. Dogs went out and I saw that the roofers had left the gate open, so I went out to shut it and promptly crashed on the left side of my chest. It’s stiff like I did unilateral dumbbell bench press until failure without any warmup.
Maybe it’s a tumor? Have you thought of that?
You should get your prostate checked.
The Yankee Air Force B-17 just flew over. No mistaking the sound of those four Pratt & Whitney Hornet engines.
I hear Obama gives free prostate checks.
My wife lost the crocs.
Heh.
My Crocs comment was actually for Hotspur.
Have you never heard Adam Corolla’s Crocs jke?
(Not exactly for mixed company or kids)
I was surprised with how loud the B17 was, when I heard one fly over.
I didn’t realize that crocodiles and alligators are prey for Jaguars. Learned that in the National Geographic. Pretty impressive, watching kitty kill a gator.
Hotspur, that’s bad ass!
In Amsterdam.
In addition to other uses, the YAF B-17 always does a flyover of a nearby cemetery on Memorial Day flanked by two AT-6 Texans. It’s pretty loud because they’re only at about 500 ft. altitude.
I assume they were out on shakedown.
Gonna go find Dad’s flag on Memorial day, again. And my uncle’s.
https://is.gd/3dA9JX
The B-17 is powered by Wright Cyclones.

you know what kind of shoes a pedophile wears?
Dark-colored Vans.
Looks like my average day, Pup. (This has actually been a good one though!)
You’re right xBrad. I had a brain fart. The initial prototypes had the P&W engines.
I can’t remember if I told you guys this, but Sunday I stupidly set my phone down on the hood of HotBride’s car while I was doing something in the garage. I forgot about it, and she drove over to our daughter’s house which is about a quarter mile away. When she came back, no phone of course.
We searched and searched along the road but couldn’t find it. So I went online and did Find My iPhone, and it located it about five miles away. I sent a message to the phone with HotBride’s number, and a guy immediately called me back. He found it on the road, run over by a car. He was on his bike.
I got the phone back, and the screen protector was shot, and the case had some scuffs on it, but otherwise there isn’t a single mark on the phone.
Amazing.
Probably run over by a Prius with a “I’m With Her” sticker
What kinda case did you have it in Spur?
Tech 21
Write them a letter.
A folksy testimonial, but you have to end it…
I’m HotSpur and I approve yer mom.
I sent them an email.
Just ran into a buddy whose 50 year reunion is in two weeks. Yale, class of 68. George Bush was a classmate, and is expected to be there.
Pretty cool.
BroCavil, I thought the Tea Party was going to be our replacement for the GOP, but we got Lois Lerner and other shenanigans at the IRS (what is the content of your prayers), dumbasses pestering people for money then not doing anything coherent with it (looking at you, Moving America Forward and Tea Party Express), dumbasses running for office who didn’t know how to handle the media (don’t answer any gotcha questions about rape), and people who were turned to the dark side with sweet, sweet pork.
When the Tea Party said it wasn’t going to be its own party, it was pretty clear it would go nowhere. When the professionals latched on, it was doomed.
No good deed goes unpunished.

Help. Someone is asking what to bring to the Blade show. I need one of your eclectic lists, people.
Whatever you do, don’t forget the firehose, the Maserati, that pretty pink dress with the flowers on it, 15 cases of cold Budweiser, an untraceable cell phone, 9 rolls of duct tape, a picture of your mom naked, some shovels, 2 identical wood chippers, 4 barrels of jet fuel, a block of Velveeta, $815,000 in cash, 11 chilled bottles of Jagermeister, 6 Jews, a pair of Abe Vigoda’s underwear, a red-headed chick, 2 tapirs, AC/DC’s “Back in Black” album, 54 packs of smokes, book of matches, stuffed Winnie the Pooh doll, Sham-Wow!, nunchucks, red magic marker, 1 lb. ground chuck, DVD copy of “Oh Brother Who Fucked Thou?”, cord of wood, trampoline, some gum, sunglasses, poleaxe, polecat, pole-vaulter, 19 hits of acid and a cold bottled water.
He said Knife Show not Wiserbud’s BBQ.
Thanks, J’Ames.
I just searched Roll of duct tape and looked for a Rosetta poat. Voila!
Dan just denied me a refill because I’m too small. He’s buying into fake news and the fact we work with Giants. Alex is 6’9″. His GF is shorter than I am. Jon and Jayson are 6’5″ and taller than Dan. Dan, J&J, and Alex all make fun of me for being short/small.
gawd!!! Pepe can back me up, but our political ads are the worst!!! NM DUI chick is my chick. She was better than the other 3 running against her.
NM politics are crazy. The dems are all vying to see how far left they can go. “Progressive” is way more common than liberal. They are all campaigning as anti-Trump.
https://is.gd/kkT17v
It’s not just NM it’s everywhere. They can’t help themselves.
Forecast calls for a Red Tsunami later this year.
NM Dems are getting warnings about going full anti NRA. Just made NM1 from plus 7 to even. Estancia D🐀 Love Bruce King. This isn’t Bruce King NM. WE CAN TURN ANTI NM
I grew up without guns. Base life was so safe. Moved to NM for college. Every one had guns. It was understood that cops can’t respond and everyone needed a gun. Carried by 6 vs judged by 12
Got my first gun. Open carry. I don’t believe in CCW. Secret tax and registration
I’m with you, oso. I would rather carry concealed, but your two reasons are why I won’t.
Maybe one day we’ll get National Constitutional Carry?

Matthews and Ward acknowledged committing the burglary, probable cause statements allege. Genius at first declined to give a statement but later objected to being charged with murder, saying he was in the house when the killing occurred, another statement said.
Attempts to reach people believed to be relatives of Ward, Matthews and Genius were not successful Wednesday. Reporters made calls and knocked on doors of several homes in Baltimore listed in court documents, but there was no response.
Harris, a ninth-grader, had fled house arrest a week before the incident and was still wearing a court-ordered ankle bracelet when he ran down Caprio, authorities said.
Sam Abed, the Maryland Secretary of Juvenile Services, said at a news conference that his department had made “many attempts” to contact Harris after he went missing from his mother’s house but was unsuccessful.
So tired of all this misfortune
Been wandering for most of the lies
They’ve stolen the derp we’ve been roaming
I swear it’s the end of the line
Well. Look at the time. My familiar old friend, 4am.
Have not had this brand of senseless, slight-agita, 4 am insomnia in quite some time. Just realized that. Huh. Used to be almost a daily occurrence.
So apparently I had to have a bad night’s sleep just to realize how good it’s been going. That’s definitely something to be grateful about!
WOOO! Yayyy! Who’s with me? *holds up high-five hand*
*hits refresh*
*hand still hanging, arm not tired yet*
*slumps back to bed*
Didn’t take.
Sigh.
I think it’s hormones messing with me. Almost certainly.
