Prior planning (I.E. Preparedness) is usually what separates adventure from disaster.

YMMV

There has been a great deal of discussion about the maniless (or lack therof) in modern men recently. (mostly by women…..)

Women bemoan the lack of what they perceive as manliness in the men they meet and date, and yet they often wish that the man they might meet will be “sensitive”, “caring”, able to share his emotions, nurturing, and in other words, act like one of their girlfriends.

YOU CAN”T HAVE IT BOTH WAYS, LADIES! You want a man, then get a man. Want a metrosexual weenie? Then go get one of those. While the traits are not necessarially mutually exclusive, if you want a soft, girly man then expect to get one that is soft, and most likely a beta male. Or, deal with the fact that the traits of a manly man (by whatever definition you may use) often come with….well, lets call it baggage.

First, you have to decide what you want in a man. Do you want Dirk Dastardly, the guy that makes your blood boil when you read your “bodice ripper”? Do you seek a man who will stand up for, provide for, and protect his family? Or do you want a male version of your girlfriends? A manly man may have some of, but only some of those qualities. He may not be as exciting as that fellow Dirk, nor as caring (or have as good a fashion sense) as the two gay guys across the street.  He will not share “feelings” with you as your girlfriend does….He will have faults.

He will no doubt be less in touch with his emotions than those 2 gay guys, or as your girlfriends, but trust me, the manly man has emotions….He just won’t let then show as much. He might take charge… He may be less of a housekeeper that you are, may not be able to detect the difference between pink and peach. He most likely will not share as much with you as to what his fears or frustrations are. He likely won’t have a “feminine” side. Deal with it. You get what you choose to have.

Likely, your “manly man” will be able to do many things. Likely, he will expect you to do some things better than he can. Likely, he will have roles for men and women in his mind. He will likely be polite to women, open doors and pull out chairs and such. There will be conversational barriers which he will not comfortably cross until he gets to know you. He may like sports to a degree which you cannot understand. Accept the fact that he is not one of your girlfriends. Enjoy the differences. You want a female roomie born with testicles as original equipment? You (generally) aren’t gonna find one who is a manly man.

And ladies:
When you reproduce, if you have a male child, develop him into a man. Don’t try to hide his aggressiveness by not letting him play with “boy” toys….Don’t drug him into docility, so he acts like a girl at school. . Let him have toy guns, let him have balls and bats, and when he plays team sports, let them keep score. Let him learn how to lose with honor, and win with grace. Teach him how to be courteous. Teach him manners to other people, and especially women. Teach him to treat women with respect. Be a mother which he can use a a yardstick against which to measure other women.  Let him be a boy, so he can grow up to be a man, with guidance from you and his father.

Read this essay. Learn from it. Think of all those commercials which show wimpy, emasculated men who need their women to show them the way. Is it any wonder that your boy child is growing up to be a girlie-man? Teach him otherwise. Do so in order that the next generation of women can find men manly enough for them.

2. Eat them

Seems the blogging host that was shut down was host to (alleged) Al Queda sites. I understand the (alleged) reasons for shutting the individual blogs down, but to take the whole server down for this? And confiscate the server with no recourse?

One wonders.

All those blogs, gone forever. For no real reason. It would (should) be technically feasible to dump all the data, or make a backup of the other blogs. Alternatively, to simply shut down access to the (alleged) blogs in question.

Methinks that there is something else involved in this.

And dollars to doughnuts the people using the (alleged) blogs for nefarious purposes will simply set up another account and be back in business in no time.

Is the DHS that technically inept? Or is there more to this? Or do they simply not care?

Was the culmination of the team effort, the national goal, that put 2 men on the moon.

and since then, the US hasn’t done much, really, in space.

But that day, millions upon millions of people watched as 2 men took the first steps ever on another world.

Then we began the slide into socialism. Spending our money on those who refuse to work, and less and less on the things which make this country greater than it was.

Armstrong and Aldrin got the credit, and they were indeed brave men. But many others who worked to put them there should share in their glory. NASA had many workers who did their jobs to place those men on the moon.

Sadly, NASA has declined ever since.

But today we should remember those who made history……the entire team who placed Mr Armstrong in a position to be the first on the moon.

I was 5 that day.

I saved or created 187.5 jobs.

Seriously.

Hey, If the big O can claim such stuff with absolutely zero proof, so can I…..

See HERE for their arguments as to why the mandate is legal…..It is now a tax, and comes under the commerce clause.  Interesting change of story in the part of the left to keep the mandate legal…..

Now if you will excuse me, I have to go practice my knot tying skills. I believe that they will be in demand in the not to distant future. I may buy futures in companies which make and distribute rope as well.

If you haven’t heard about  Donald Berwick, the newly appointed “Administrator of the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS)” then you need to read THIS article.

Scary, for many reasons. He was a recess appointment, and therefore not subject to legislative review. He admires the (oh so successful!) socialized medicine model of the once great nation of Great Britain (now not so great…) and applauds health care rationing in such a system….

Of course, he has exempted himself and his immediate family from the same system he promotes…..

Read the article….both pages Then, when the anger fades from your eyes, realize that this man’s boss is truly a socialist elitist.

But first, make sure that you cannot access any firearms for at least 15 minutes after reading. No ready access to axes, rope etc.

Seriously. This is the issue with Socialism. If you are not part of the ruling class, then you hope you can be a prostitute……At least they get paid when they get fucked.
