—Ooh, sorry. No can do. At least, not this week. Seems the little guy heard me talking about the exciting field of retail POS the other day and got so jazzed that he ran right off and signed himself up for some night courses at Foothills Community College. He starts this evening. Which, who knows? Two, three years?—and he could be moving Royal A9155SC Electronic Cash Registers w/ Scanner and
It’s Friday, brother! And after a long week, there’s nothing we’d like more than to see—
Another moment of unabashed pragmatism
With my mother-in-law arriving in town in just a few hours, I’ve decided that in lieu of doing a lengthy and substantive post, I’m just going to put up something short. Like this. That way, I’ll have time to vaccuum up the Cheez-It crumbs, keep you all flush with new pw content, and find myself some pants. And a shirt. And some socks and underwear. **** update: Oops. Turned out
“Obama: Bush is using ‘subliminal messages‘“
Like, you know, airbrushing little pictures of Jesus into the ice cubes in all those J&B Scotch print ads. Anyway, Allah takes Obama to the woodshed and beats him with one of Nancy Pelosi’s cardinal red high heel Gucci pumps.
“More Uranium Reportedly Found in Iran”
Just consider this an update to yesterday’s post on Iran. Only this time, worry even more, if you’re so inclined. I wouldn’t blame you. From Breitbart/AP: The U.N. atomic agency found traces of highly enriched uranium at an Iranian site linked to the country’s defense ministry, diplomats said Friday, adding to concerns that Tehran was hiding activities aimed at making nuclear arms. The diplomats, who demanded anonymity in exchange for
The “New” NSA Kerfuffle, Day 2
Even as a Washington Post/ABC News poll—in itself a bit deceiving (on which, more later)—reveals that 66% of Americans “said they would not be bothered if NSA collected records of personal calls they had made,” many of the usual suspects (be they Bush-haters angling to scuttle the Hayden nomination to DCI, or civil liberties absolutists looking to stroke themselves for an ostentatious “willingness” to surrender a bit of security for
An Islamic Declaration of War?
From LGF: Only a few blogs (and almost no mainstream media) have realized the truth about Iranian madman Ahmadinejad’s letter to President Bush. It was not an offer to negotiate, and it was not simply a lunatic’s rant. It was a calculated invitation to convert to Islam, a da’waâ€â€an Islamic requirement (commanded by Mohammed) before waging war against unbelievers. Speaking in Jakarta, Indonesia, Ahmadinejad himself confirmed this reading today, as
“Chomsky cuddles with Hezbollah, blames U.S. & Israel for Iran’s ‘difficulty‘“
Allah has all the details—including Chomsky’s assertion that Hezbullah needs weapons in order to counter “Israeli aggression.” No word on whether Semtex-strapped teens officially count as weapons, however. Could be they’re just considered a happy bonus, like finding a quarter stuck to the bottom of your prayer rug. At any rate, this seems the perfect opportunity to re-post some old material so that I can work out and have some
“NSA has massive database of Americans’ phone calls” (UPDATED)
More attempts by our “adversarial” press (and their leak-happy counterparts in the CIA) to gin up controversy, this time, presumably, to try to scuttle the appointment of Gen Michael Hayden as DCI. From USA Today: The National Security Agency has been secretly collecting the phone call records of tens of millions of Americans, using data provided by AT&T, Verizon and BellSouth, people with direct knowledge of the arrangement told USA
The cycle of life
Via Craig C, a MEMRI-hosted video that follows a suicide bomber in Afghanistan from beginning to end. Only my respect for Otherness keeps me from declaring suicide bombers deluded barbarians being used by fanatical ideologues who rarely, if ever, blow their ownselves up. After all, somebody’s got to buy the vests, right?
Former bulk purchaser of women’s undergarments breaks out the denial AND the funny! Why, it’s like TWO MINTS IN ONE!
Or, if you prefer, one of those “happy endings” my massage-aficionado friends are always going on about. At any rate, responding to this whole Klonopin-related dustup (which, let’s face it, were I embarrassed at all about taking a medication to help me with sudden onset anxiety attacks, I probably wouldn’t poke fun at myself by reproducing private conversations with my pills, something I began doing in early January), Tbogg—one-time darling
