Ancient Wisdom

Remember the wisdom of the ancients, especially Confucious.  He said, "A man standing on the toliet is high on pot." Read full post »

Cosmic Nerd Alert!

I was watching a TV show concerning Flying Saucers when I got a thought.  Normally this is a danger sign, but this one was different because I couldn't act on it.  Well, that and that it was a good one. 

 I started wondering what could happen if we were the oldest and… Read full post »

Joan Walsh Is An Uber-Honky

I've noticed a rush of lame "heartfelt" expressions of joy over Obama's win, but none so bad as Joan Walsh's music list.  That includes David Gergen's mind roasting performance of the Mountintop speech, incidentaslly.

Only a first-degree honky would pick Bruce Springsteen's(!) ver… Read full post »

Skinheads? Or Shitheads?

The guys that were planning to kill Obama should be given a break by the criminal justice system.

 Obviously, they' re too dumb to realize robbing a gun dealer was a good way to get shot, so they're too stupid to put in jail. Read full post »

Am I The Only One?

Am I the only one who wants Jesse Jackson to shut the fuck up? 

I know that's ending a sentence with a preposition, but up the fuck shut doesn't feel right. Read full post »

The Election Is Still McCain's To Lose

I've been looking at the electoral map and I confess I'm worried about Obama's chances. The national poll numbers are essentially meaningless because we don't have a national election, we have 50 state ones.

It may look like Obama is sitting pretty now, but that's because his states - the ones… Read full post »

Camille Paglia Is A Pain In The Ass

Jeez, Camille Paglia is a pain in the ass.  She'll take any position that's calculated to show what an original thinker she is.

It's a trait common among people from Buffalo - see Jack Kemp and his gold standard rants - and it's just plain annoying.

Hey, I went to NHS… Read full post »

I'm With The Guy In "Airplane!"

I'm sore about bailing out people who bought houses the couldn't afford.  I live in a dump, but when I could I paid off my mortgage early.  I canceled the credit cards because I'm on a fixed income and can't afford ANY debt.  I carry two debit cards, MC and Visa,… Read full post »

A Beautiful Thing

I watched a video on CNN.com where a commentator tried to explain - without much success - how the bailout was good for slobs like me. 

What cracked me up was how they first showed a commercial by an oil company advocacy group explaining how they were really our friends. 

It… Read full post »

Large Hadron Collector??

Apparently there's something called a "Large Hadron Collector" buried under Switzerland.  Huh?  I thought the only thing buried under Switzerland was tons of Nazi gold.  But no!  They had to go and confuse me with a piece of large and expensive - is there any other kind? - of scie… Read full post »

We Need A Pimp Up In Here!!

A friend of mine - who is much more intelligent than I - called Congress, Wall Street bankers and the Bush administration a "bunch of whores".  Now, every whore I know is alright, if slightly lax in behavior, but this made me think and I got a flash of inspiration.   Whi… Read full post »

Holy Shit!

Holy shit!  I've joined the Blog-o-Sphere.  Now what the hell am I supposed to do?

I have absolutely nothing to add to any discussion, I only want attention.  Not only that, but I'm a perfectly vile man.

 Man o man, I'm in the shit now.  The only thing that makes me… Read full post »
