Pretty much the truth. Especially the “Bad Personality” bit. But those kinds of girls always need an excuse as to why they fail in life, never have the introspectiveness to examine themselves for causality.

(BTW, didja notice how I gave credit as to where I got the image and meme from? That’s how you do it, not just steal it a day later and call it your own. It’s called courtesy and honor. You should try it. You know who you are). 

I mean, the fires are actually mostly farmers burning off their fields after harvesting….as tey ahve for many generations.  

Yes, there is some small part of the forest being burned, but that practice has been greatly curtailed over the past few years. In fact, it has nearly been cut by 2/3….

Even the NY Times has pointed this out: “Much of the land that is burning was not old-growth rain forest, but land that had already been cleared of trees and set for agricultural use.” 

Odd how that isn’t the message that most of the media is putting out. Why aren’t they telling the truth?

Why the lies….And what is the purpose of the media campaign?

And I have a simple solution: if they don’t want the rain forest burned, then people should buy it….Yep, buy an acre. Make it into a park, or a preserve, or whatever. BUT don’t tell other people what to do with land that is not yours. Pay them for the land, then You, as the owner, can determine what happens to the land.

Until then, shut the hell up

So Barry and Michelle Obama are buying a mansion on Martha’s Vineyard.

Good for them. I’m happy for them.

But one wonders, where did they get the cash to do so? I mean, 15 MILLION dollars is a lot of scratch….like a whole lot. And the utilities alone are gonna be a whole lot of money each month. Plus upkeep, maintenance, taxes, staff, etc.

Where did they get the money for the purchase and where is the income stream coming from for the residual cost per month? It’s gotta be another half million dollars a year just to keep the thing going.

Where is that coming from, much less the 15 MILLION clams it took to make the purchase?
(According to the experts, Barry and Michelle are worth over $130 Million….all from “Book Deals and Speaking Engagements”. In 3 years they have earned 130 MILLION bucks. Good work when you can get it, I guess.) 




ETA: One wonders why Barry would be buying beachfront land ON AN ISLAND….since he told us if we didn’t spend all that government (taxpayer) money on Solar Cells and other Green Initiatives pout forth by his cronies the icecaps were gonna melt in a few years and flood all the seafronts and Raise the Sea Level by tens of feet or more……Wouldn’t that put his mansion underwater?

Or was that where he got some of his money? From grateful beneficiaries of his policies? Perhaps they are the ones paying him the Big Bucks for the “Speaking Engagements” ?

I would think that if he believed his story about melting the icecaps he would have bought land in the mountains….

Or, perhaps, he was just lying when he said all that about Global Warming Climate Change….

27 years ago, the siege that became known as “Ruby Ridge” began.

Federal Marshals, out of control and acting on flawed information from the ATF (go figure), killed Sammy Weaver and laid siege to the home of Randy Weaver and his family until the FBI became involved.

During the resulting siege, a sniper from the Hostage Rescue Team “accidentally” killed Vicki Weaver while she was holding their infant son. The son was not harmed. The shot was against the Rules of Engagement, but Lon Horiuchi, the sniper, was acquitted in Federal court….He should have been convicted of Murder.
No one, not a single agent, was fired for the debacle. No one was convicted of murder either. No one lost their pension, and several were promoted.
The Agents of the State were held blameless for their actions. Repeat: No one was in any way censured for the whole debacle,

Armed citizens are the only barrier to the State and it’s minions choosing to do the same thing to the rest of us should we become the target of their choice.

Never give up your defense. Ever.

And despite the Taxpayers paying a large settlement to the Weaver family members for the actions of their employees, the fact is that a family lost a mother and a son. I once met Randy Weaver. He was, then, a broken man. No one can fix the damage done to him. And yet the Agents of the FBI, the US Marshals Service, and the F-Troop ATF agents all skated on their crimes. No one was called to account for this debacle.

I sincerely hope this never happens again. But without the means to see that it doesn’t, to defend against out-of-control Law Enforcement, it will happen, sooner or later.
Never give up your means of defense, your means to at least fight back.

Armed men are Citizens, unarmed men are Serfs. Choose which you will be.

Seems that Wayne needs more money.

He told me so in a Email that he sent me from the NRA.

It had a “Personal” video from him telling me all about how, with my help, the NRA can “continue the Fight”  and without me (and my money) they might fail.

Fuck That.

Not a DIME until Wayne La Pierre is gone from the NRA.

I do love it when an urban apartment dweller tells me that because I don’t sort my trash for recycling  I am a terrible person who is destroying the environment and causing global warming climate change.

This from a person who drives (when there are public transportation options available…IE trains) over 50 miles every day (each way) to get to work, who lives in an apartment and cares for zero greenspace.

He seems to feel that sorting trash for (energy wasting) recycling efforts somehow offsets several acres of greenspace (which I own and maintain as habitat) with significant tree and other vegetation growth, that is close to where I need to be…my average daily (or less) round trip is less than 25 miles.

But hey, Greenie “Holier than thou” or something.

I offered to bring him my (average) 5 cubic foot of sortable trash each week in order that he could sort it….. I mean, “If you really think it is that big of a deal, and will make all that much difference, I can toss a bag or two into the back of my pickup and deliver it to you every couple of days…. it isn’t out of my way or anything”… He declined.

I LOVE exposing liberal hypocrisy.

And, as has been pointed out, even though it often makes no sense energy wise or monetarily (which equates to energy, really) recycling is (often) a religious expiation. 

The 16 year old girl was found…..in Arkansas.

So she was well beyond the scope of the local-to-home Amber Alert at the time the Alert was sent. 

Apparently unharmed, she is on her way home.

And thousands of disgruntled people have now turned off their Amber Alert function on their phone so they aren’t awoken at 5:50 AM on a Sunday next time…..

I think I’m gonna give it a bit more time. Perhaps the cops will get their heads out of their asses. I doubt it, but “hope springs eternal”. 

No one yet knows if this is a case of “Running away with her boyfriend” or an actual abduction either. Either way, it was a 16 year old “Princess” and a 22 year old man, so….

So at 5:33 AM  today I get an “Amber Alert” on my phone.

OK, I get that. Be on the lookout for XXX vehicle with plate number ABCxxyy. Timely info could lead to a quick resolution of the issue….

Then later this morning, I find out that this is for a 17 year old girl who “may” have been abducted 18 hours before from an area about 15 miles from my home.

Firstly, this isn’t what the “Amber Alert” system is for….it is supposed to be used for more timely stuff like child abductions that have JUST HAPPENED, not for something that happened 18 hours earlier.
Second, waking people up early on a Sunday for stuff that happened 18 hours before is likely to cause them to turn the Amber Alert feature “OFF”. Had this been put out at 3 in the afternoon for something that may have happened at noon or 1 pm, it might have made sense. Finding someone who MAY have been abducted and putting an alert out for the abductors vehicle makes sense. Putting the Amber Alert out at 5:30 in the morning is obviously not a great response time nor is it likely to result in finding the abductor 18 hours after he has fled.
I’d bet that nearly everyone that got the alert simply turned it off and went back to sleep. I was already awake, but it even irritated me at the timing. A part of me thought about turning the feature off since the authorities obviously can’t use common sense, but I didn’t, as the next one might be an alert where I could actually help….

One wonders about the intelligence and cognitive skills of the people in Law Enforcement who make these decisions. (Not meant to be a slam on cops in general, just SOME of their folks who do boneheaded stuff like the above)….If the dude has left the area, then there is no reason to be waking anyone up because he is long gone….18 hours worth of gone. If he’s holed up close by, I doubt he’s moving at 5:30 AM. Shoulda put the Amber Alert out within the hour of the abduction

Epstien’s death was a suicide.

And Oswald acted alone.
Jack Ruby acted in the best interest of Jackie.

Vince Foster was a suicide.

Bigfoot lives with the Loch Ness Monster.

Am I missing any?
