Good morning, and welcome to another edition of Hunky Hump Day.
I heard that Ray Sawyer of Dr. Hook had passed away New Year’s Eve. While they are best known for “Cover of the Rolling Stone”, I knew Dr. Hook for this one:
mainly because my sister won a T-shirt from the local radio station that said, “I got stoned and I missed it…but I heard it on WBBQ Augusta.” Mom wouldn’t let her wear it.
Time for the hunks.
I can’t see Sam Elliott without thinking of sweet Patty Ann.
Some Christmas leftovers.
*
Maybe a repeat?
Last, but not least.
Thank you for your attention, thanks to Pirate’s Cove for the weekly linky love, and y’all have a good day.

Chris Pratt is a cutie (with a nice body).
Good morning Mare. Have your kids retreated back to their own worlds yet?
Morning news here is giddy with excitement about our new female governor. “First ever”. Somehow I think the celebration would be more muted if she was in the GOP. She’s promising free shit so everyone loves her. LePage said he’ll be back to run again in 4 years if “what he thinks is going to happen happens”.
The BDN is simultaneously running stories about the evils of the LePage administration’s cuts in social services and the big surplus in our general fund that’s going to pay for Medicare expansion
Sigh … off to work
Pratt also SEEMS to be a good guy.
Jimbro, just brought my youngest to the airport at 5:00am this morning!
Have already emptied dishwasher, finished laundry and a kicked butt on a workout!
Miss her already. But now have time to be stupid here.
oy!!
still have the stinking cough. nurse practitioner didn’t give me any tessalon perles or anything else. Guess I’ll have to call today.
day 3 of not sleeping. ugh
I’ve overslept. I wake up every day at like 530 or 6, but when it’s dark out I can get back to sleep. Lately that’s been putting me into the 8 o’clock hour, which is fine on vacation, but it needed to end yesterday.
Lee Marvin and Chuck Norris in a movie together? This ought to be good.
Maybe you should quit asking for a prostate exam for a cough, Jay.
Just sayin.
Every couple of years I have a cold bad enough to wear me out to the point where Nyquil sounds like a good idea. I have such a reaction to it I use a half dose and it is totally worth it.
copay is cheap
the old nyquil worked. The new stuff isn’t as good.
FDIL is supposed to return tomorrow, but she is sick today. Hope she gets better and doesn’t bring the crud here.

TBH, I’d be afraid of Australian spiders, too.
Word is Australia banned firearms after reports the spiders were carrying AK-47s.
They’re really making hay out of Mitt’s op-ed in the Wash Post (*spit*) decrying Trump’s presidential demeanor. Sour grapes Mitt?
I took old-ish NyQuil last week and it still worked for me. When did the recipe change?
Mitt lacks the humility necessary to learn new things or appreciate good things he wasn’t asking for.
That and Mormonism has decided that borders are evil or something. There’s a similar heretical idea going around in the Catholic Church, and it needs a stomp.
It’s opportunism. A lot of people are willing to ignore the long-term consequences for the short-term results that they hope to achieve.
Mitt has accomplishment envy.
Trump is going to call Liz Warren Hillary 2.0 and end her 1/2020th chance of getting any votes at all.
They’re already comparing Warren’s announcement video to Dukakis in the tank.
Still say it’s a cynical ploy for campaign $$. In a race against Willie Brown’s BJ-staffer, she doesn’t stand a chance and she knows it. She’s hoping there’s some WASP dem money she can grab in the meanwhile.
An enterprising American diplomat, backed by a coherent administration, could try to organize an international peace conference involving Afghanistan and its neighbors, one focused on denying terrorist groups a base in South-Central Asia. It is the kind of project that Henry Kissinger, Richard Holbrooke, James Baker III or George Shultz would have taken up in their day.
From the NYTimes.
Everything wrong with our political class over the past twenty years is summed up in these two sentences.
Mitt needs to be reminded that he represents the State of Utah and not the fucking UN and the rest of the world. That and he is obviously a PUSSY.
I have no doubt that it’s at least partially about raising money. I bet the top Dems all want to avoid being the nominee in 2020. Why risk a loss that kills your political career? Wait until 2024, when you can run against a conventional GOP candidate with the wind of Trump Fatigue at your back.
The 2020 Dem primary will be between the nutjobs and the corrupt pols. It’s going to be glorious.
Wakey wakey.
Mitt needs to STFU. I can’t even with him.
I still can’t convince Pat that Hillary has zero.zero chance if she decides to run again.
Depends on whether they are able to engineer a recession and high gas prices in 2020 like they did in 2008.
I expect a lot of “bubble” talk and further political maneuvers by the Fed.
Hillary isn’t running to win. She’ll raise a ton of money and get enough support that she can play kingmaker. The goal is to demonstrate that she still has influence over the party so that the money to the Clinton Foundation doesn’t completely dry up.
I just personally think her popularity on the left has fallen off a LOT. No one wants to talk about it. Because … you know … that death thing.
Mitt is a complete douche. If you look up “mealy-mouf scumbag” his picture is featured. Any state that elects him is lost. Mormonism has nothing to do with his douchebaggerie – he is a genetic douchebag. Born a douchebag ——-> will die a douchebag.
Kayne is back. LOL. He seriously cracks me up.
Hillary can’t run for real without kicking in her own money. LOL no way.
She’s been throwing up trial balloons for a year and no one GAF.
The first person that isn’t Warren, Sanders, or the like will get a ton of hype and all the money. My early thought is Beto or Harris because they remind the media of Obama. And Dems, at their core, are dumb so they’ll fall for it.
Harris strikes me as the most likely one at this point.
Mitt Romney is the living embodiment of Why We Got Trump.
McCain used to be, but the tumor finally won that fight.
I wouldn’t underestimate wassername that lost the Governor’s race here in GA.
She’s great on camera.
I want to know what brand of beer Lieawatha was drinking.
I still contend that Romney would have been a better president than Obama.
I really liked him. Met him once.
Totally genuine.
Still a douche.
I didn’t see the video – did she look as awkward as I imagine she looked?
We need to vote for Harris to prove we’re not racist. This is a winning strategy .
Soooooooooooo contrived.
Here is my husband, who is a man with whom I live. He is very supportive of me. I am the wife.
I will now enjoy a beer without the label and make sure to twist off the top as I’ve practiced many, many times this afternoon.
I will also wrap my entire face around the bottle as most people do when drinking this bottle of beer. I will not be awkward.
Thank you husband, I will now enjoy my beer.
FFS why can’t people be genuine? Are they incapable?
The problem both parties have is they’re machines–can’t get anywhere in the party without the machine’s backing, but that alienates a big part of the theoretical base. That’s why participation rates have been ever lower within my lifetime. Trump managed to buck the machine, but is constantly undermined as a result. AOC is the Democrat side of that coin; Sanders pretended to be, but he’s machine.
The machine is outdated. Pickles was the last gasp.
It’ll be either left or right populism.
The Big Machines are outdated, but most of the local ones are still working fine. Have a look at the one in Chicago that committed multiple-thousand petition fraud felonies to keep a kid off the ballot.
“Kayne is back”
Kayne is off his meds again. I believe the guy is schizo.
Kayne is an artist and erratic. He’s pushing a lot of buttons, and the knee jerk “he’s off his meds” thing – which has filled is twitter feed – just shows how deep the black/left is invested in “owning” blacks.
Ba haaa haaaa haaaaaa

no.
If blacks voted R at the same rate as hispanics, the Ds would cease to exist. The dems are fighting Kanye for the same reason they fought Harriet Tubman.

We’re seeing a realignment of politics again. It will take a few election cycles to fully shake out. My guess is a vaguely leftwing globalism versus a rightwing nationalism.
A lot depends on who captures the Dems. If the far Left does, at seems to be happening, the more “moderate” machine Dems may go GOP, tipping the balance of power there against the nationalists.
Happy New Year, cunts.
Ive watched Kayne now for years…..my theory that he’s off his meds has nothing to do with anything other than his behavior pattern.
/shrugs.
We see, of Kayne, what they want us to see. That given, I don’t feel comfortable making any judgment as to his mental status.
It also doesn’t mean he’s wrong.
This has been said elsewhere, but why no call for gun control after the illegal immigrant shot the cop?
Because they don’t want to draw attention to crimes committed by illegals. The fear is that the population will come to the wrong conclusion and decide that the solution is fewer illegals, not fewer guns.
Weird. It’s so hard to figure out Roamy.
CoAlex must be wrong. It has to be some other reason.

I’m gonna get me … a beer.
LOL, jam.
Worst beer I ever had was Crazy Horse, which was technically a malt liquor.
I don’t drink beer. I’d have had more respect for her if she just asked for her usual cocktail of drugs.

Howie Carr always mentions the line she used during her first senate campaign versus Scott Brown about talking over politics when you’re at your local cheese shop.

Don’t indians smoke wampum? I would have more respect if she’d done that?
i raffed over the police sting attempt in that facepost
Wampum was money. Sea shells maybe? Peace pipes were filled with tobacco.
“wampum”
isn’t that something you do to kids when they misbehave?
Has Elizabeth Warren ever done any porno? I’m not gonna look.
Well, I’m not 1/2337664 Indian.
She should have said “I’m going to have me some firewater”.
” After a bunch of rowdy drunk kids copulated with chickens and destroyed the basement, Carin threatened to wampum.”
Elizabeth Warren wants to be president.

Too long to read the whole thing but the first paragraph sums it up
From Tipis to Treaties
When I think about it, I can respond like the left (although I can use facts for my positions) in the sense that if you are someone who would vote for Elizabeth Warren or that criminal hag, Hillary Clinton, I cannot like you. That gap is too wide, much like your mom.
Resolution for 2019:
Kick jam2 in the poon regularly.
“ I’m going to have me some firewater”

Resolution for 2019:
Enjoy the idiocy that will be Warren’s Quest to return this land to her native people.
Detroit Lions have fired offensive coordinator Jim Bob Cooter.
Gawd, I hope some other team hires him. I don’t want an NFL without being able to say “Jim Bob Cooter”
Contestants have to complete events like three gun courses, timed workouts, dancing, and answer questions regarding gardening, politics, theology, and cocktails.

I’m screwed.
So Elizabeth Warren actually thinks she can win 1)the democratic nomination and 2) the presidency.
I may be a crazy but Warren is in a freaking psychotic dreamworld.
Did you notice how many voted for the felonious bitch? And Occasional Cortex? We are living in Psychoticstan.
“Ian international peace conference involving Afghanistan and its neighbors, one focused on denying terrorist groups a base in South-Central Asia….It is the kind of project that Henry Kissinger, Richard Holbrooke, James Baker III or George Shultz would have taken up in their day.”
And yet they didn’t. Neither did terror loving Barry Boi.
So lets ignore what’s been done in N. Korea that those fools haven’t touched either. I didn’t see them get prisoners released or Korean war remains returned.
Looking in the camera like a grandparent talking with the grandkids is totally gonna win over the Millenials.
Millennials are idiots. Promise free shit and weed and Orange Man Bad, and you’ve got most of them. The rest won’t vote because “I don’t like any of them and I don’t want to hear about it.”
The sun may make an appearance on Saturday. Should be in the 50s too, so that I can sit out on the deck in my shorts for some D. (SYWM)

Roamy – how long was the “process” for your friend who had a child transition? I know you said it was really quick.
And who remembers that video thing I posted about the young woman who regretted transitioning, and transitioned back? I can’t find it.

A pretty sizable chunk of the American labor pool is about to be automated out of jobs through RPA, bots, and machine learning/AI. And. It just fast food workers. Professional people are gonna get squeezed.
Importing a bunch of low skill workers isn’t a great idea right now, Mitt.
Tranny Jazz got his ‘bottom’ surgery a few months back. Experimental because his suppression drugs kept his wiener infant size. Think they used perineal tissue seeing as how he had nothing to work with.
His dad is beta and his mother is what hotspur would refer to as an obnoxious cunt. Watch a couple of their ‘shows’ and you’ll see the entire family revolves around their gay son and his obnoxious mother.
He’s a pushy little bitch and needs a foot up his ass, not a front hole that will need to be continuously fought against closing.
MJ, as far as Mitt and the members of the uni-party are concerned, importing the uneducated and low-skill is more to do with votes and power than ‘work’….seeing as how the vast majority are suckling your teat RIGHT NOW!!

“Miss Alabama, the first option works a part-time job as a carnie, rides a motorcycle, and has a lifelong dream to get his entire upper body tattooed. The second option has a programmer job in a massively expensive city on the West Coast, and spends his off hours doing nothing but playing video games. The third option makes a decent salary, spends his spare time woodworking, and wants to settle down and start a family soon. Who is the correct choice?”
“Oh gee, that’s difficult. Um… I’ll go with option two!”
“I’m sorry, that’s incorrect. Your agonizer, please…”

“BZZZT….wrong answer, dumbass”
Oh…so husband’s Goddaughter story. His friend was going to take the wife to some European destination on holiday. Somehow it turned into also taking the daughters…much to the friend’s dismay. And with the daughters, they wanted to bring their boyfriends. Friend is like…’Um..that is a no unless you pay your own way.”
Boyfriend threw a conniption that he can’t save any money because rent is so high and that he has to pay 3x more of it than ‘her’..the daughter. Everyone proceeded to dogpile him as it was because of him that she followed him out there.
So boyfriends aren’t going.
Who is the goddaughter in that story?
Tell the daughters you can’t take them along, you gonna be doin’ the balls johnson dance.

yep, pretty much the stamp of approval there.

Argh. I see my mom left a message on the answering machine. My anxiety has spiked to twelvety. Last time she called, I was anxious for three days after, along with insomnia. She badmouthed my sisters and talked racist crap about why the city of St. Louis is shit…not to mention that numbskull D.A.. She came close to going off on Trump via my dad’s sister…”Oh, “x” is beside herself..you should hear her.” Have no clue why she would listen to a woman who had all four children* removed from her custody, and who she never had anything to do with until recently.
*I met the oldest when I was six…and then again as a teenager after her mom came down from Alaska and kidnapped her from her dad. “Oh, my dad abuses me.”….”What does he do to abuse you?”….”He yells at me and won’t let me do things.”
