Wow, what a busy weekend... Saddam's gonna hang, Doogie Howser's gay, and apparently the SULBD's CAN get more whacko. Please check out NetScrewie.com's home page... Bush admits the war in Iraq was all about oil!!! Of course, that may have been taken slightly out-of-context.
This link will take you to a Op-Ed by Orson Scott Card on RealClearPolitics.com... Orson says he's a Dem, who was lost to his party when they gave Joe Lieberman a political "Wet-Willie". It's a great explanation, BY A DEM, of why we need to stay the course in Iraq. He takes a few un-necessary shots at Bush Sr., and Reagan, but I just read past those. Quick disclaimer, here... I don't know how Clear the Politics on RealClearPolitics can be, as they have an Op-Ed from Howard Dean posted... AAAAAAAAARRRRRRRGGGGGGHHHHH!!!!!! (Howie's '04 Battle-Scream). Orson also urges voters to deny any candidate who has been spouting the "Timetable for Withdrawl" position.
Why is it, that during the most important mid-terms in decades, I can't stop hearing about Madonna's adoption, Michael J. Fox's Parkinson's, or whatever trash Hollywood is spewing? I imagine alot of it is Hollywierd helping their Donkey-People friends distract us from the real issues, as most Donkey-People don't want us to know that they have no comprehension of the real issues. They're just happy thinking they have us all snowed with their rigged poll numbers... Hey, I know where to call to get the answers I want, too... That's why the major polling peeps have all been sucked up by the major media outlets, so they can tell you what they want you to hear. Pollsters know exactly where every prefix they're calling is located, why do you think I never get calls from them? Because I live in a republican-heavy, fairly-well-to-do town with one prefix, one easily eliminate-able prefix. Throw in that many polls are now done online, where the SULBD's live, and you get the perfect Lib-Pollster storm. Also, most people of a more conservative nature, tend not to even bother with polls. Tomorrow will be much less dramatic than the Donkey-People think... Lots of "Status-Quo", if you will. Oh, a good number of people are still zombified enough to let the mainstream sway them, but I think the career politicians, on both sides, have most of us pissed-off enough to start voting our minds, and not their version of what we should think. At least I hope.
My only solice in that the Packers lost again (nice play-calling McCarthy), is that the un-godly overrated Bears did too. Hmmm...I think the Packers were able to beat the Dolphins....
Let's see,coach Mc, the slant pass was picked off once for a TD, batted down twice, and should have been picked at least one more time...Now, first and goal at the one, Ahman Green, and Noah Herron just ripped off three runs for about 50 yards to get you here... Do you.....?
A. Run the ball at least once... or
B. Throw the covered-like-a-blanket slant pass....AGAIN... Into double coverage.
TED THOMPSON...LISTEN TO MY WORDS.... YOU DON'T HIRE THE WORST OFFENSIVE COORDINATOR IN THE LEAGUE TO BE YOUR HEAD-COACH....PERIOD. By the way, is Al "Toast" Harris still looking for more money?
Remember to get out there, and vote tomorrow. If you don't vote, you can't bitch.

Is this the Donkey-Peoples' Plan to Win? -or- Are Ya' Kiddin' Me Right Now? Part Deux
SOOOOOOOOOO....Mr. Kerry....My big bro' and I are stupid, now, or what? You served in the military, not very honorably, but you did...So are you stupid, too? And your lame-ass cover-up today? "It was a botched joke, aimed at the White House..."
RIIIIIGHT!!!!!!!!!!! So, today you want to insult all of America's intelligence, not just our fighting men and women... Did you think the rest of us felt left out? Do you really think anyone buys that BULLSHIT excuse?
Today, I was going to post a little something about how thrilled I'm not with the ultra-right, too many absolutes, pushing religion, and faith-based politics, blah-blah... But now I'm really PISSED OFF! I can't believe anyone could see this crap, and still want to vote Dem. Wanna see some more pseudo-intelligent campaign fodder? This is some stuff I found on FoxNews.com...
"I'm sick and tired of these despicable Republican attacks that always seem to come from those who never can be found to serve in war, but love to attack those who did," Kerry said. "I'm not going to be lectured by a stuffed suit White House mouthpiece standing behind a podium, or doughy Rush Limbaugh, who no doubt today will take a break from belittling Michael J. Fox's Parkinson's disease to start lying about me just as they have lied about Iraq. It disgusts me."
-That's our boy Johnny K
And this from FoxNews.com via the New York Post, concerning Charlie Rangel's hopes for the top seat on the House Ways and Means Committee (should the Dems take over). His response to VP Cheney's assertion that he will let Bush's tax cuts expire if he gets the W&MC seat;

"He's such a real son of a bitch, he just enjoys a confrontation," Rangel said, describing himself to the newspaper as "warm and personable." He told the newspaper Cheney may need to go to "rehab" for "whatever personality deficit he may have suffered."
"When you have those sorts of problems, you're supposed to seek help," Rangel said. "He acknowledged that he has problems with communication."
Is this the plan, Donkey-People? Pummel us with not-very-clever insults, until we vote for you?
So far, I'm not feelin' it... Maybe you should insult me some more... Maybe you could insult my Mom, that might work. And when you're done insulting me, try to convince me that you weren't really insulting me, you were trying to poke fun at my Sainted Grandmothers, and screwed it up. That might get me to vote for ya'.
If anyone was looking for a reason not to vote for the Dems, John Kerry just gave them a few to choose from; insulting us, then trying to fix that by insulting our intelligence, and when he realized how stupid that all sounded, he did what all good Lefties do, he got down-right petty..."Despicable Republicans"?... What are you now, Daffy Duck? Kerry's not even running for anything, and shouldn't even have his mouth open, and I guarantee there's a lot of Dems who want him to shut it.
Brilliant strategy, Donkey-People. If this is the plan, I'd like to thank you in advance for keeping things the way they should be, and for proving that you are just like your kooky friends in Hollywood; petty,uninformed, and just plain-old out of touch with Joe-Average.

Are Ya Kiddin' Me Right Now?
OK, so as referenced last night, Netscape has taken to using bloggers as anchors for the news on their homepage. The link will take you to a column in the Philly Enquirer by James Lileks. It's a funny little read about the first hundred days, if the dems take control on Nov. 7. Well, the Ultra-Super-Lefty-Bloggers-Of-Doom did not like that Netscape let something that poked fun at the Donkey-People through. Heaven forbid... Oh wait, can't say Heaven..... Promised-After-Life-of-Your-Choice forbid we have a little chuckle in these times of impending "dissaster" as one of the USLBD's so quaintly put it.
The ultra-rich, ultra-left has these poor bastards so convinced that everything is a conspiracy, one guy advises that you vote absentee so the republican hackers can't fiddle with your electronic ballot. PLEASE, stop playing W.O.W. 23 1/2 hours a day, and come back to the real world for a while. Good God...Oops, can't say God... Good Diety-of-Your-Choice, these pasty goth freaks have taken Nancy's word for it, these are the End-of-Days...unless of course you all vote democrat Nov. 7, then everything will be OK. That will fix everything... except your employment situation, 'cause we're gonna give your job to an illegal alien... and raise your taxes... and cut your benefits, so we can give them to the illegal who took your job... and your social security.
I have said it before, and I'll say it again... The only people who are liberals are those who can afford to be, and those who can't afford to be anything else. Do you honestly believe that Nancy, Ted, Hillaryous, and the Money-Men behind them really give a crap about anything but their own advancement? Don't even get me started on Barak "Poster-Boy" Obama, I live in Illinois, he spends a great deal of time taking care of his party, meanwhile Illinois politics, infrastructure, and schools go further, and further into the toilet. He, Rod Blago, and Daley are making a killing off the demise of this state. And meanwhile, the folks that voted these yahoos in, are getting what out of them? But they'll keep voting for 'em, because Katie, Matt, Tom, Susan, and CNN told them to... And their kids will, because the ultra-informed Kanye West told them George Bush don't like black folks.
If any of you USLBD's, or illegals, or welfare cases, or pseudo-intelligents are reading this...Please, open your eyes, the Lefties are using you. They promise you things; more welfare, amnesty, citizenship, justification of your kooky conspiracy theories... And all you have to do is let them pretty much run your life for you. They want you on welfare, they want you here ILLEGALLY, they want you thinking everything is a plot against you, so that you NEED them, so they can keep you under their collective thumb, and not let you, or your children ever NOT need them. They try to make you believe the Republicans are the feared "Big Brother", when the very tenet of the Democratic Party is more government control, because you're too stupid to live your life by, and for yourself.
If you get a chance, go to Netscape's homepage, and check out some of those "News" stories, it's a hoot.

I'm Baaack!!
OK, so I've been gone for quite a while. Baseball playoffs run right into football season, and you lose me for a few months...That's just how it goes in my world...My wife deals with it, so can you. Just so you know, Baseball team lost in the second round, football team was co-conference champs, and lost our "Bowl-Day" game 34-28 in triple O.T. A feeling not un-like taking repeated blows to the groin with a wooden mallet.
So, that's been my last four months... My favorite 4 months of the year, I get to coach the greatest game of all time, which takes up most of my time, so I don't really notice the news, and all of it's mostly very biased mainstream outlets. When I started watching again, the first thing I see is O'Reilly on OPRAH.... Fantastic TV, Oprah tried to load the audience with lefties, so she could have a big "Bill-Bashing-Party", only Bill is too smart for that, and Opie ended up kissing-butt, to save face. Once again those pesky facts get in the way of lefty over-emotionalization, and scare tactics. It's funny, how many people wanted to get on O'Reilly about the "Fair and Balanced" tag line of Fox News. They're all so used to the liberal bias of mainstream media, they think the truth is right-wing propaganda. I have proof. A friend of mine has a brother who has served a couple tours in Iraq, including the siege on Fallujah. My friend gets a rare call from his brother over-there, and in a nut-shell, here's how it goes;
Friend: Hear you guys had a busy day...
Brother: Huh?
Friend: CNN said it's f*&^ing chaos in Fallujah today.
Brother: What are you talking about? I haven't fired a shot in two days, we're just sweeping.
Friend: They were showing a big gunfight and even mentioned your unit.
Brother: Last week, maybe. When these guys get bored, they make-up "Emmy-Clips", they start feeing pressure to send some horrific news, or graphic footage back to keep in the spotlight.
My friend's brother also said we're alot more popular over in Iraq than we are led to believe.
Ya wanna know who my new best-friend is? Glen Beck. I can't figure out how he gets to be on the Clinton News Network. I guess FOX is getting under Ted Turner's skin a bit, hmmm?... I like "The Beck" because he'll go after anyone, he doesn't mince words, and he's realistic. It doesn't hurt that he also has Erica Hill on every show. CNN is good at one thing, hiring the best looking anchors around.
At some point during my absence, Netscape went to an "Ultra-Leftie-Conspiracy-Theorist-Bloggers-of-Doom" format for their homepage news. I have never seen so much unsubstantiated, un-proveable B.S. in my whole life. Bloggers as news correspondents? Mother-of-God, What are you people thinking? Why don't we just give the people(read: nut-bags) sitting outside Area 51 cameras, and microphones? Actually, I think that's how they discovered James Carville.
I hope Joe Lieberman wins his seat back.... My what a monkey-wrench that would throw in the spokes of the left-wing unicycle. We need more people like Joe representing us. I know he's a Liberal, but at least he's not afraid to cross party-lines when he knows it's right. Remember, next week, vote for the candidate, not the party. Vote your conscience. Just get out there and VOTE.
Now that I've got some time again, we'll discuss lots of stuff over the fall and winter... The Foley scandal, which sounds alot like a Dem from 15 or so years ago, who served three more terms after he got caught doing the same thing... Nancy Pelozi, don't even get me started... and I think I'd like to re-visit my Hollywood-D.C. Dems connection, 'cause I haven't heard much from the "Sarandonites" during these very critical mid-term elections.... I think Mr. Cruise might have something to do with that.

Is It Just Me?
OK, so I'm going through the news, and I see a bit of good news, Texas Cops Find Abducted 5 Day Old. I saw the report on Nancy Grace, and Greta Van Sustern's shows, last night. By the way, Nancy rules, even though she's on the Clinton News Network. Of course, like all parents, my reaction is fear for the child (especially since she was sick), and deep gutorral pain for the mother. How do freaks have such a special talent for gaining peoples' trust? The baby is fine, but the story doesn't say if the woman who took her was caught. So, happy news there. Makes our 8-1 loss at the ol' ball diamond tonight seem pretty trivial, which is exactly what I needed. Is it just me, or does it seem like you always get something nice like that right when you need it?
Just when you thought it was safe to go back in the news... Kennedy Released From Rehab. So Ted's boy is OK to return to his place in society. If you read the story, you'll note that Patty-Boy has been up to this kind of stuff since high school. Oh, like father..like son, car accidents, special treatment from the fuzz, the only thing missing, is the mistress drowning in a pond. I wish my name was Kennedy, I quite often have the urge to intoxicate myself to the point of black-out, then take a late-night drive... If my name was Kennedy, I could get away with that, and involuntary man-slaughter.... Man, rich, AND above the law, must be rough. The story almost makes Patty out to be a hero, championing the mental health cause. If that had been 'W' behind the wheel, it would still be the top story every day, and everyone from Al Gore to Al Franken would be calling for impeachment, hearings, sub-commitees, an immediate stop to the sales of sleep-aids, and alcohol, and more warning labels we don't need. But, since it was a Dem, A KENNEDY, it was all society's fault, and relegated to the farthest reaches of Netscape news (by CNN, no less). Is it just me, or do we have a bit of a double-standard problem in this country?
Do we like bad news? Only 2 out of the 14 stories I scanned tonight were of a positive nature. There were a few ambiguous headlines, but mostly this murder, that terror plot, another abduction, families killing each other... When I read, or watch this junk everyday, I start getting depressed, and I want to just ignore it. But that would be denial, and I'm not into that. Instead, I'll just bitch about it in here, and keep looking for that good-news story buried in the crap. maybe tomorrow's good news will be a big win for the ball team. Is it just me, or does a good little-league game beat the heck out of the 6 o'clock news anyday?

Forgive Me an Evil Chuckle
HA HA HA HA HA! MUA HA HA HA HA!
Michael Moore is being sued by an Iraq war vet for, shall we say, "Creative editing"?... In "Farenheit 9/11".
I saw a quick blurb last night, that the Clinton News Network was scrolling across my screen. I found the whole story at Netscape.
Wow, Michael Moore...Twisting words... Rearranging timelines... putting words in peoples' mouths? Un-heard-of. I had heard of some instances where MM, in true liberal fashion, asked people a bunch of questions for the movie, then edited so that different answers went with different questions, so those answers would sound more along his conspiracy theory lines. In Sgt. Damon's case, he showed footage of an interview Damon did with NBC, right after a clip of Rep. Jim McDermott (D-WASH.) saying the Bush admin was leaving alot of vets behind. Read the story, you'll get the point. So, I watched that wretched P.O.S. twice, at the suggestion of a co-worker. Watch it once before you know some of the edit points, and once after. It's very enlightening as to how much work MM put into making his theories seem plausible. There are (or were) a bunch of sites that got into this, I did it 2 years ago, so I don't really know if you can still find them... or why you'd want to.
MM's another one of those Hollywood types who apparently have the ears of the top intelligence people in Washington. I'm sure he's already touched base with the new CIA director.
HEY! Didn't MM do that Roger& Me thing too? Maybe he could help me with my hypothetical auto assembly plant thing.... Oh no, wait... He's a Lib... He likes quotas, and screwing rich white guys... Wait, HE'S A RICH WHITE GUY!!! ... eeeewwww. A little hypocricy to go with your deceit, Mr. Moore?
If MM wants to expose a big conspiracy, I've got two words for him...
White Water
Oh, here's two more...
Vince Foster
And how 'bout...
Monica's dress
Or...
Cuban Cigar
Ya' know, I'd really like to see that one, he could call it "White Water, Blue Dress", or
"Don't Talk With Your Mouth Full", or "Man, That Smells: A Cigar's Life in the Oral Office"...

UPDATE
As I find out more and more about this hypothetical hiring process, it's becoming clear-as-mud to me.
Through further hypothetic discussion and research, I've found the women to men ratio will be about 2:1. That is not all, however. The hypothetical criterion also hinges on two other things;
1. Are you of woefully average intelligence?
2. Does your score on the psycho-babble portion of the test indicate that you are a mindless follower, willing to tattle on your co-workers for the smallest mis-deed?
If you answered yes to both of these questions, (and you're a Hispanic, single mother) CONGRATULATIONS!!! You're in! Hypothetically.
Here's my theory; What we hypothetically have here is three groups trying to play both sides against the middle, not realizing that there's a third side involved.
1. Management convinces union reps that this diversification looks good for P.R., AND certainly none of these new employees could threaten their cushy ass-spreadin' jobs... But neglects to mention the lack of knowledge, and therefore production, morale, etc., will also weaken the union. Management does not know the labor side of the union even exists.
2. Union reps, convinced they have kissed-up most righteously, go to labor and say, "Hey, we know there's always been a referral program, and we've gotten alot of good employees that way, but this whole diversity thing we're getting shoved up our ass by Washington...We don't like it any more than you do... And all you people who've been working here part time for years.. Let us talk to management, we'll get this straightened out...blah..blah, you should be getting your full-time offers any day now..blah...blah." Union reps are convinced that they are Management.
3. Washington, whose campaign fund is fattened by both sides, has Management convinced that a weaker union will mean cheaper labor down the line, and the whole P.R. thing don't hurt either. Meanwhile, keeping Union reps happy with "Diversity will strengthen.." and "I'm fightin' for you everyday..." talk, while all those "Richest 1%" tax cuts just keep getting passed. Washington is fighting for whomever is fattening his coffers the most. Labor who?
What does all this mean? Well, for starters, I feel sorry for the poor people who have to train the in-coming crop of former salesmen, and office workers. Second, I wouldn't buy a certain car named after bullet measurements, as I am sure there will be recalls-a-plenty. And finally, another P.O.S. politician keeps getting richer, while the people who got him there are slowly putting themselves out of a job.
Wow, maybe I should just count my blessings. Y'all have fun with that..'K?

Through further hypothetic discussion and research, I've found the women to men ratio will be about 2:1. That is not all, however. The hypothetical criterion also hinges on two other things;
1. Are you of woefully average intelligence?
2. Does your score on the psycho-babble portion of the test indicate that you are a mindless follower, willing to tattle on your co-workers for the smallest mis-deed?
If you answered yes to both of these questions, (and you're a Hispanic, single mother) CONGRATULATIONS!!! You're in! Hypothetically.

Haven't We Dicussed This Already?
OK, so in my previous post; "Me as it relates to you", I touched on hiring practices. Basically, my point was, hire the best person for the job...(insert sarcastic chortle).
Let's say hypothetically, I apply for a job at hypothetically the largest automotive assembly plant in Belvedere, Illinois. Let's say hypothetically, I get passed the application process, and go for some skills testing. Let's just assume these hypothetic tests are cheesecake, and I ace them. Do I hypothetically get to move on to the next phase? NO. Why? Let's take a hypothetical look.
I've hypothetically talked to several people who may or may not have initiated this employment process themselves. 5 hypothetical men, 4 hypothetical women, one being my wife. All of the men have been stopped like a bad check after the application, or tests hypothetically speaking, and the women are being hypothetically pushed through like Play-Doh through the spaghetti factory.
All 5 hypo-men have lots of manufacturing/assembly experience, the hypo-women have lots of office experience. I know someone who hypo-works at this hypo-plant, who hypo-told me one hypo-man has been hired...He was a car salesman for 15 years.
Now, I know unions have quotas, Washington pressures big corp's to "diversify", and that I'm a bit miffed that I'm losing out on some of that big-fat hypothetical UAW money...But doesn't this sound a bit like reverse-discrimination? I have the qualifications, the experience, oh, and a penis.... Sorry... middle-class men need not apply...You are the most hated demographic, after all, and we can't hire you because you're the backbone of this nation's economy. We have to hire based on the latest feel-good data, keep Hillary and Barak happy for when they take over... Really...Susan Sarandon said it's gonna happen...So it must be true.
Before you ladies get your torches lit, this is not about chauvanism, or anything like that. Best person for the job, that's all. If these women were more qualified than I, or one guy who has 20 years of auto assembly experience and didn't make it passed the application, then fine, hire away. But doesn't common freaking sense tell us a guy with 20 years experience is the better hire than ANYBODY with none? This also isn't about women getiing ahead of men, or me specifically. In fact, I have always responded better to female authority figures than male, I don't know why, must be something Freudian, I just do. I was just as angry years ago, when my Mom was passed over for a promotion, because if this other guy didn't get the job, he was gonna sue for discrimination because he was a gay Hispanic. Mind you he had a tenth the experience, and about a millionth the work ethic Mom has, but he got the job. Mom's retired now, and probably thinks about that old situation way less than I do, but I saw the anger, and disappointment on her face. I over heard some of her calls to various union heads, politicians, and what-not... and it's a big part of why I am more of a conservative, why I feel we need to get back to CFS.
I cannot stand this "Gimme what I want 'cause I'm a left handed quadropolegic lesbian" society we have created. Every demographic group (except mine) has a group of lawyers just waitng to sue the pants off anyone who doesn't hand them a life on a silver platter. So, you get what I'm experiencing right now, I can't get a nice job with good pay and benefits, because some freaking liberal decided my demographic is too well represented in this hypothetical factory, or a certain liberal puke senator from around here wants to make sure he's got his demographic hypotheticals covered. Common Freaking Sense, people... we need a whole lot more of it, from northern Illinois, to Washington D.C. .... Hypothetically speaking.

Yeah, so I'm busy....Jeez.
OK, so it's been a month since last I blogged. Baseball season has started, real baseball, Pony League, not the steroid-induced, spoiled little rich-bitch baseball. I help coach my son's team. So that's taking up alot of time, I also don't think you understand how much more my wife likes me when I'm doing stuff around the house...especially this time of year. I also just got done with a rather nasty bout of "Everything Out of My Digestive Tract...I Don't Care Which Way You Go".
Yes..Two fun filled days of Technicolor Yawns, and The Trotskies....MMMMMMMM. :) Ever "released" a quart of orange Gatorade all at once? Tastes EXACTLY the same as it did goin' in. Why does the doctor tell me to keep drinking fluids, when they're just gonna come back out? What am I, a radiator?
Anyway, my wife and I were watching Dateline's "To Catch A Predator" XXXVI, or whatever number they're on now, and it got me to thinking. WHAT THE F@#K IS WRONG WITH THESE IDIOTS?!?!?!?!? OK, so maybe you missed the first one or two of these shows, but there's been like ninety of 'em now! I would think by now, Chris Hansen would have single handedly OBLITERATED cyber-sex predators from the face of the Earth. BUT NOOOOOO.
These morons just keep coming out of the woodwork, like it's their freaking job. I understand that some of these guys are "not well", but come on.... Does being a few shingles short make you that dumb? Just for a sec, let's set aside the obvious reasons not to be a sexual predator. Let's just look at one... NBC. You don't need cable or DirecTV to get NBC, so really, no excuse not to have seen one of these reports. Many people (obviously, other than you freaks) watch NBC, including, possibly... Your boss, your Mom, Your P.O., or the detective that's been after you for a year and a half for the rape of your under 13 niece. And they have caught some real "pillars", Teachers, Homeland Security guy, a Rabbi (are ya' kiddin' me?), and on the next one, some DUMBASS brings his kid along! I WANT TO HURT THAT F@#KER ON SO MANY LEVELS.
Pardon my liberal (yech) use of the blotted out F word tonight, but really, you're with me on this, right?
Zac Moussaoui gets life in the pokey, and says "America, You lost." OK, I'm not the one who's going to Sing-Sing to get a little Ding-Ding from Bubba. I'd have to say that's a win for me. By the way Zac, those cell-mates of your's may be low-down, dirty, vicious criminals... But they're AMERICAN, low-down, dirty, vicious criminals...HAVE A BLAST BUDDY!!!!
Gas prices keep going up, my wallet keeps getting lighter, and somewhere, an Oil-Magnate rests his head on a pillow stuffed with Ben Franklins. I wish it were as easy as blaming it all on the oil companies, or W, or OPEC, but it's not. It's our own fault, mostly. We refuse mass-transit, car-pooling, and anything else that would cut-down on gas usage. Don't get me wrong, the old "Suppression of Technology" thing isn't helping either. The feeble attempts at hybrids, and alternative fuel vehicles so-far are laughable at best. I'm no tree-hugger, ya' know, and I'm just as guilty as the next guy, of using too much gas, but guess what...That pillow's gonna be stuffed just as tight tomorrow night, if we don't cut down on consumption. By the way, again, you know that e-mail that runs around, about how we should boycott Exxon/Mobil, then they have to drop their prices, then everyone else drops their prices, etc.? Yeah, won't work. Look, if we DID get a mass boycott of E/M, all they'd have to do is drop their price maybe a nickle lower than Citgo, BP, et al, and we'd all go rushing back over there. Next day, price is back up, you're still buying from E/M, and the pillow is about to burst. The only thing we can do, that will REALLY work, is drop our consumption, period.
Well, that's about all for now. Sorry it's been so long, I have to admit, I've been playing too much Counter-Strike. Man, it's like a drug... " I can stop playing any time I want.....Really" Yeah, right. Do they have CS anonymous?
"Hi, my name's Stu"
"Hi Stu"
"I discovered recently...that I'm...a.... a"
"It's OK, Stu, you can say it, we're all friends here"
"I'M A COUNTER-STRIKE-A-HOLIC...weep, weep...sob, sob...whimper"
Never guess what I'm gonna do now.....

Random Stuff That Irks Me
First and foremost; I wish Brett Favre would make up his freakin' mind already. And while I'm on the subject of the Packers... WHAT THE HELL WAS TED THOMPSON THINKING???? "Oh, gee look, for some reason, nobody has snatched up that Mike McCarthy fella..." Well, Ted, do you suppose it had anything to do with the fact that he was the coordinator of the WORST offense in the NFL? Teddy, you'd better have the best damn draft in the history of the NFL, and MM better be the biggest sleeper-"holy crap where did he come from?"- hire of all time. 'Cause I think Packer Nation has a little more say with Bob Harlan than you think we do.
Second, would all of you ugly women quit your whining about Deb LaFave getting off the hook? There are many issues at play here; One, a woman who looks like that is not going to get a break BECAUSE she looks like that. If anything, she's going to be made an example of in our leftie judicial system, so everyone can see that beauty is only skin deep, blah, blah, blah. Two, if I'm a 14, 15 year old kid who gets jumped by a teacher who looks like that, I am not emotionally scarred..... I AM the King of the Freaking School! I am the Egg-Man, I am the Walrus, coo-coo-catchoo. Three, the kid is already having some severe distress, just with all the press, and unwanted attention this has drawn. His Mom said she'd like to see LaFave do time, but not at the expense of her son's stability. Four, LaFave is already under 3 years of house arrest, and I think 7 years probation. Plus, she obviously lost her teaching credentials, and any opportunity to teach anywhere in the civilized world. Do I think what she did was OK? Hell no. Do I think the kid is going to be damaged goods because he got to hit that? Hell no, I'd be quite willing to bet the one thing he WASN'T thinking was "This woman needs to go to jail!". All the freaking-out by the press, the public, and the courts, all the pressure of trying to lead a "normal" life with all of this swirling around him, and trying to gain his parents' trust again..That's what will be his trial. Ms. LaFave says this happened because she's bipolar. While I find that a petty lame excuse, I have seen bipolar people do some crazy shit.
Do we need anymore reality shows? How many more ways can we put a group of strangers together to see if they'll "hook-up", back-stab, cheat, swindle, spend all of Hef's money, take the suit case or the money.... STOP ALREADY. Some of them are OK, Idol's good, once you get down to a manageable number of people (Chris the Rocker-Dude rules). We used to watch "The Real World", (please re-name that show to "Beautiful People ages 18-24, living in impossibly perfect digs, given gravy jobs, and oodles of re-casts on The Gauntlet) but now I think they're really trying to get some one pregnant, killed, arrested, or married. Here lets put two gay guys, and a bunch of horny hetero's in a confined space, with (apparently) an unlimited booze budget... What could possibly go wrong? Can we please start paying some actors, and writers again? I miss Cheers.
System of a Down, and Green Day, please stop wtitng protest song until you do some actual research. "Why do they always send the poor?"? Gosh, I dunno, maybe because we have an ALL VOLUNTEER MILITARY. Most rich folks don't feel the need to sign-up for the GI bill. And stop going on, and on about the oil. We haven't taken a freaking drop, and when we do, we'll pay for it, to help Iraq's economy get on track. None of that could have happened under Saddam,(unless you were France, Germany or Russia breaking UN sanctioned trade embargos) or can happen, until the insurgency is quelled. You see, the faster we get Iraq on it's feet, the faster we can get out. However, the real "Campaign of Misinformation", being waged by the mainstream media, and people like you, would have us believe that all would be OK if we just pulled out en mass. Maybe, if the core of the insurgency was Iraqi, but they're not. Yes some extremist Sunni are part of the problem, but for the most part these are outside influences inciting some Iraqis, but certainly not the majority. If we just up-and-left, the Iraqi people would have it worse for longer, than if we hold on 'til the job is done, or Iraq's military can handle it themselves. Try talking to some of the troops coming home, who've had contact with average Joe Iraqi, they don't hate us like you want us to believe they do.
Finally, if you're one of those people who find it difficult, for whatever reason, to even approach the speed limit while driving...GET THE HELL OUT OF MY WAY... Listen, I view the speed limit as more of a suggestion, a guideline if you will. I suppose you do, too, only your view wastes alot of MY TIME. I already have to drive too much, I don't need you prolonging the task. I think our highways and biways would be a much happier place if we all got one summary execution per day. Some guy almost kills you 'cause he just cut you off, you get to run him into a bridge embunkment. Think about it, are you gonna tailgate that old lady if you're not sure she's used up her execution for the day? If you're not sure her trunk won't pop open to reveal a 20mm gatling gun? No, you're gonna smile and wave to Granny, and hope she's not on her way back from a losing night at the bingo hall.
Peace, Love, and "What the hell are you doing in the left lane?"

Me...As it relates to You
I thought that I should give both my fans an overview of me, and some of my beliefs. Things to let you know where I'm coming from, before we even get there.
Politically--- I consider myself more conservative, but not necessarily a Republican. Honestly, I pretty much hate all politicians. Even those who start with the best of intentions get turned into the partisan A-Holes we all hate. "Not that I condone facism, or any -ism, for that matter"- Ferris Beuller...But the two party system only works if the parties are doing what their constituents elected them to do. Let's face it, once they get to Washington, they're set for life, so they stop giving a shit about us, period. My big problem with the Dems- Hypocricy. How in the hell am I supposed to believe that John Kerry, and Ted Kennedy give half-a-damn about "The Little Guy'?
My big problem with the Republicans- Legislated Morals. Listen, guys, I didn't elect you so you could go ape-shit because Justin & Janet had a "wardrobe malfunction". Can you say FCC overkill, boys and girls? I elected you because I want CHRISTMAS back, because I don't want a warning label on EVERYTHING, and because sometimes it's OK to give a FIRST PLACE trophy, not a "participation medal".
By the (old school) way, all you screamin' lefties... I got my butt beat as a kid when I was bad, 'cuz I deserved it... And guess what? I'm not an axe-murderer, I don't need therapy, and I love my Mom and Dad to death. Unbelieveable, huh? Time-outs ain't workin' people.
Abortion--- I don't like the idea, fundamentally. However, even more fundamentally, I hate the idea of going back to un-sanitary back-room abortion clinics, or worse yet, girls bleeding to death in a closet because they tried to do it themselves. I know alot of people use abortion the wrong way, and frankly those people make me sick, but the alternative was, and would be, much worse. Oh, and all you ultra-Christian clinic-bombers... Al Qaeda has some openings you may be interested in.
Environment--- While I acknowledge the phenomenon of global-warming, and it's dangers to us and future generations... Go find me a scientist who can PROVE that it isn't just a cycle the earth goes through. They can't. Know why? Mama Earth has been around for about 4 billion years, we've been here about 10,000. The technology to detect things like the ozone hole has been around for about 30, and climatology, and meteorology can't find their asses with both hands. If you listen carefully, you can hear them contradict themselves. The last Ice Age happened without our help, and yet that's what the big outcome of global-warming is supposed to be. Are we speeding it along? Probably. Are we producing junk that would make our ancestors puke? Yup. But guess what again... So would a large-scale volcanic eruption, or a medium to large asteroid/meteor hitting us... Mama will wipe us out before we can do it ourselves. That's not to say I'm a polluter, or I wouldn't love to see our cars run on hydrogen or whatever, or I'm a nature-hater. Quite the contrary, I love hunting, and fishing, and camping, and I can't do those things if nature is gone...I love Mama...I leave her better than how I found her whenever possible. I think the more real, and present danger is what happens when we blow our fossil-fuel wad, and our oil-based world economy takes a big ol' dump.
Religion--- The only thing I'll say that I didn't say in my religion rant (You, Me, and Religion), is that I think all churches need to stay out of the political arena. Respect for life is not something I need shoved down my throat every Sunday. I've been in some very hairy situations, I have kids, I'm pretty sure my Respect-o-Meter is pegged. And as far as putting your churches two-cents in on whatever war is going on? I seem to recall some things called, "The Crusades", "Jihad", and God himself swallowing up half the Egyptian army in the Red Sea. Show me the teachings of whatever Faith I follow, don't try to govern me. It's part of why this country exists.
Society--- We have allowed the ACLU, and Soccer-Moms to turn us into a mediocre people . We can't have actual competition anymore. We can't have winners and losers anymore, just participants. We can only hire the best people for the job if a certain demographic-proile quota is met. We have also polarized ourselves in keeping with Washington's example. We piss and moan alot, but those incumbents always seem to keep their seats. Part of the reason I started this blog was to fire someone up, if only myself. I live in a town where we HAD an opportunity to build an ethanol plant. It would've brought in over $ 1 million a year to our schools just through property taxes. But a bunch of mis-informed loud-mouths (whose kids mostly go to other schools) have pretty much blown it. See, these geniuses built their fancy sub-division on a Super-Fund site, between a freeway, and a huge tank farm that supplies all the area gas stations... But God forbid they build that ethanol plant. By the way, if any of you Redenius idiots reads this, all ethanol plants do is COOK CORN you moron. you cannot produce toluene by cooking corn. Toluene is a petroleum-based solvent, cooking corn is not petroleum-based anything. Go take a 10th grade chemistry class. Most of the people IN town, wanted this plant, and those tax dollars. But once again, the loudest voices are the only ones heard. Just like the rest of society, we all think all Iraqis hate us because that's what the loudest voices say. Wrong. If the loudest voices were always right, John Kerry would be President. It is time for the silent majority to stop being so silent.

Politically--- I consider myself more conservative, but not necessarily a Republican. Honestly, I pretty much hate all politicians. Even those who start with the best of intentions get turned into the partisan A-Holes we all hate.

Does Hollywood Have Top Secret Clearance?
OK, so I'm surfing the web earlier this week, when I come across this story (NetScape.com) about Charlie Sheen.
Now, this isn't a story about Charlie's career, or famous family, or (my favorite part), his collection of former HOTTIES (Ginger Lynn, AND Denise Richards in the same lifetime? I mean Come-on!). No, this was about Chuckie's (very timely) theory about how 'W' helped plan the 9/11 attacks. Yeah, Chas, first let's lose the bong. Your reaction time has a Half-Life. Second, what are you a structural engineer, now? Part of C-Dog's rant is about how the tower collapses looked "too controlled"... So, 'W' knew EXACTLY where to tell his hijacker friends to crash into the buildings?
And the hijackers' small aircraft pilot training was good enough to allow them to fly WIDEBODY PASSENGER JETS with that kind of precision? Umm..NO. Charles started going into his explanation of the theory, why our Prez would do such a thing, (oil, lucrative contracts for his friends, just to use the War Machine), but the whole thing just kinda' fell off...Like he saw something shiny.
That reminded me of another "Intelligence Specialist"; Sheryl Crow. Yep, she's hot, she can sing and play like the dickens, AND she apparently has her finger on the pulse of international espionage, and conspiracy. My wife and I were watching Sheryl on TV one night. I dig her music, I certainly like watching her, but things went south quickly. Sheryl once played a USO show for the troops during our totally un-necessary involvement in Kosovo. Ms. Crow insisted that she would never play for anybody but US troops again. Whatever. Apparently, war is OK when a Dem (Clinton) gets us involved in it. When 'W' does, it's a "campaign of misinformation".
The concert we were watching quickly turned into a political platform for the left.
OK, you wanna talk misinformation? All the lefties, especially Hollywood, and mainstream media can talk about is oil. Iraq has this HUGE oil supply, and we're there to steal it. OK, why are Iraqis paying almost nothing for gas, and I'm paying $2.50 a gallon? If we just stole this massive reserve, shouldn't prices be dropping? Second, other than oil, there are two differences between Saddam, and Milosevic; Milo never had any chemical weapons to use on his own people, and he was a Christian. So basically Sheryl was saying Kosovo was OK because we had a Dem in the white house, and we were going after a Christian. Both mass-murderers, both evil dictators, mass-graves, the whole bit. But Slovodon never attacked any of his neighbors, or sponsored terrorist attacks, or produced and used WMD on his own people. Did we go in to Iraq at the wrong time, on bad intel'? Yes, the resources would've been better used in the hunt for Osama. Besides, it was always just a matter of time before Saddam would do something stupid again, and give the world a reason. But he can't do that anymore, can he? HMMMMMM.....
By the way Hollywood insiders, a little scoop for ya'...Most of the insurgents ARE NOT Iraqis who want the US out, they are Syrians, Jordanians, Saudis, Egyptians, etc. who are inciting some Iraqis. "The News" just fails to tell you about the people who don't hate us in Iraq, and it's most of 'em. Did you ever notice how Slick Willy always got us involved in stuff right around the time another one of his scandals was blowing up?
- "Don't look at that intern going down on me, look at all these Tomohawk missiles I'm throwing at Saddam."
-"Don't look at that Whitewater investigation, look at our troops ousting this small-time semi-dictator"
-"Don't look at Vince Foster 'killing himself', look at this fiasco in Somalia."
-Three times Al Qaeda hit US interests during Bill's terms, WTC bomb, US barracks in Saudi Arabia, and the USS Cole. All three times, he said we would get those responsible, all three times certain African countries offer up Osama's head, 'cause he's hiding out there. All three times Bill says "NO". Who is conspiring with terrorists? I guess that depends on what your definition of IS is.
By the way again...I'm still waiting for Alec Baldwin to move out of the country, and for Tim and Susan to uncover that huge Oil Industry scandal, so I can have my solar-powered car, and organic chai tea, and for Sean to come and give me a million dollars; my kids think I'm an evil dictator. (Do you suppose Sean's million was in with all that cash they caught Saddam with?) Don't even get me started on Michael Moore, Bill Maher, Green Day, or System of a Down.
Please Hollywood, stick to entertaining, leave the spy stuff to the CIA.
Peace, Love, and real intelligence,

Me, You, and Religion
O.K., so I work with a couple of guys who are not only more conservative than me and my Brother CP put together, they are also very religious....And very opinionated (read: stubborn) about their own interpretations of what the Bible says. As you may know, CP and I were brought up Catholic (read: guilt-ridden), with all the "I'm not worthy", and "I'm a sinner just for being" you can handle.
The big argument a couple weeks ago was; Did Jesus die for our sins as in many people- one sin per person, or one person- many sins? Or maybe many people - many sins? Like alot of things in the Bible, you could read it both ways...And like many things in the Bible, I personally think, it is that way to MAKE you think.
The problem, in my small-scale two-guys-at-work case, and I believe, in the world, is that alot of us are so caught-up in our own up-bringing, our own opinions, our views of what is right, that we fail to see the Common Freaking Sense right in front of our faces.
Now, mind you, this is my view of CFS... I don't think it really matters which, and how many sins Jesus died for, I don't think it matters if you're a Christian, a Jew, a Muslim, a Bhuddist, or whatever. I don't think it matters how you interpret your Bible, or holy word of choice (as long as you don't pervert a peaceful religion, that goes for you Ultra-Christians too, not just Muslims)
or how you choose to worship (once again, within limits). I think if you try to do the right thing, try to be the best person you can, and follow the Golden Rule (every religion has a version, but they all say the same thing), your God, your savior, your prophet, will accept you into your Heaven.
Being enthused, or adament about your reigion is fantastic, until you start trying to push it on other people as the only one that's right. My family and I choose to remain with the Catholic Church, it's the church I was raised in, baptized in, was an Altar-boy for. But, I also understand that my church is partially based on what Emperor Constantine thought should be the story of Christ. Thousands of years of religions fighting each other, crossing-over one another, and just getting lost in translation will create enough debate without our ego's help. So I don't push my belief system on anyone. Think of it this way, 95% of the world believes in a Higher Power, and 95% of the teachings in all the different disciplines are damn-near word-for-word, so why can't we all see eye to eye?
probably the same reason that we can't have CHRISTMAS anymore, in a country where 95% of us are Christian.

Illinois Governor's Race
Well folks, it's Judy Barr-Topinka going up against Blago here in the flatlands. Hmm...A very liberal Republican at best this Judy, not that I'm a huge fan of the ultra-right, but I think Judy is a Repub only because the incumbent is a Dem. You wanna know why I consider myself more of a conservative? Because at least you KNOW up-front the Republicans are in it for themselves and their friends; The Dems gotta lie and say they're all about the little guy, the minorities, the homeless, homosexuals, and whoever is the "Cause-Group-of-the-Day". How many homeless people do you think John Kerry had over for dinner this week?
