Another Muslim Post

Action? What are they suggesting?

Swine Flu Mask


Food for thought.
SARS scare hit Mexico
Mad cow scare hit Mexico
The poisonous tomato and jalapeno scare that turned out to be B.S.
And now swine flu scare
Comrade and I were talking about this and it seems that with drug wars, the flu wars and a corrupt government, this country is on the brink and a little fear mongering will send them over.

I Am Not Homophobic

I am not homophobic. I am not afraid of the reprisals when I say that gay marriage is not right or at all commonsensical. I am not at all scared when I admit to people that I believe most people who support gay marriage have a low opinion of marriage to begin with. That the reason they think gay unions is the same as normal marriage is that they believe the whole institution is pointless and that "ALL" people are allowed to perform this pointless acts.

I am not afraid to admit that the institution of marriage is not a pointless act and is in fact one of the more important institutions we hold.

I am not afraid to know that homosexuality is different from heterosexuality.

I am not afraid to admit that my disgust for homosexuality isn't just a learned behaviour. In fact, the opposite is true. I had to learn to accept the homosexual lifestyle and though it still grosses me out, I learned that it is apart of life, but I am not afraid to recognize that it is an unusual apart of life and is noteworthy.

I am not homophobic.

Woman Claims Her Dad Was Zodiac Killer

If this is true it makes the Zodiac movie even more stinky.

Thank Goodness For This.

I suggest you check this out immediately. A site dedicated to helping you determine whether you may or may not have contaracted Swine Flu here.

My Early Video Friday

I am now living at my uncle's and there is no internet. I can't wait until this limbo we are in is all over one way or another. Anyway, I am digging this band right now.

Not Video Friday Yet? Oh Well

Too Good To Wait.

Let's Talk Swine Flu.

To whom do we owe credit for this latest scamdemic? Is it a desperate cry from the CDC to increase their funding? Is it, as I suspect it was with the Bird Flu, those industrious fellows who produce the Tamiflu vaccine? Or is it those do-gooders that are constantly pushing universal healthcare? An unholy triumvirate perhaps? Stayed tuned for a sure-to-come if it hasn't already Global Warming tie-in. What a wonderful world.

What person in their right mind would even think this was ok to do, let alone OUR PRESIDENT??

A Very Dangerous Game

Seems that's all Dems can play with our economy, with our health, with our security, etc.

This is a good read. From the CIA director during 9/11.

Yo, Joe!

So here's the link to episode 1 of the new G.I. Joe (G.I. Joe: Resolute) cartoon that aired on Adult Swim recently. It looks like anime and people get shot in the head and stabbed to death and whatnot, so that's pretty cool. Too bad Cobra still needs to invest in some sort of shooting range for their soldiers. And how this show moves forward without Bazooka is beyond me. Sorry for the spoiler!

Barney Frank: (One Of) The Most Evil Men In Politics

This is just amazing. One of the people most responsible for forcing lenders to make bad loans to people who could not afford them, which in turn caused our current recession, says he never really was for making bad loans. Unbelievable.

What he said in 2005 when CONSERVATIVES were complaining about the bubble created by Government meddling:



What he says today. OMG!

Peter Parker Was Way Ahead Of These Guys

This is pretty cool.

My favorite line: "Spider silk has long fascinated scientists but producing it in commercial quantities is difficult because spiders kept in captivity tend to eat each other."

Going Around Right Now...

Can not confirm or deny these, but here is a list of supposed Earth Day 1970 predictions that sound about right to me:

“We have about five more years at the outside to do something.”
• Kenneth Watt, ecologist

“Civilization will end within 15 or 30 years unless immediate action is taken against problems facing mankind.”
• George Wald, Harvard Biologist

“We are in an environmental crisis which threatens the survival of this nation, and of the world as a suitable place of human habitation.”
• Barry Commoner, Washington University biologist

“Man must stop pollution and conserve his resources, not merely to enhance existence but to save the race from intolerable deterioration and possible extinction.”
• New York Times editorial, the day after the first Earth Day

“Population will inevitably and completely outstrip whatever small increases in food supplies we make. The death rate will increase until at least 100-200 million people per year will be starving to death during the next ten years.”
• Paul Ehrlich, Stanford University biologist

“By…[1975] some experts feel that food shortages will have escalated the present level of world hunger and starvation into famines of unbelievable proportions. Other experts, more optimistic, think the ultimate food-population collision will not occur until the decade of the 1980s.”
• Paul Ehrlich, Stanford University biologist

“It is already too late to avoid mass starvation,”
• Denis Hayes, chief organizer for Earth Day

“Demographers agree almost unanimously on the following grim timetable: by 1975 widespread famines will begin in India; these will spread by 1990 to include all of India, Pakistan, China and the Near East, Africa. By the year 2000, or conceivably sooner, South and Central America will exist under famine conditions….By the year 2000, thirty years from now, the entire world, with the exception of Western Europe, North America, and Australia, will be in famine.”
• Peter Gunter, professor, North Texas State University

“Scientists have solid experimental and theoretical evidence to support…the following predictions: In a decade, urban dwellers will have to wear gas masks to survive air pollution…by 1985 air pollution will have reduced the amount of sunlight reaching earth by one half….”
• Life Magazine, January 1970

“At the present rate of nitrogen buildup, it’s only a matter of time before light will be filtered out of the atmosphere and none of our land will be usable.”
• Kenneth Watt, Ecologist

“Air pollution…is certainly going to take hundreds of thousands of lives in the next few years alone.”
• Paul Ehrlich, Stanford University biologist

“We are prospecting for the very last of our resources and using up the nonrenewable things many times faster than we are finding new ones.”
• Martin Litton, Sierra Club director

“By the year 2000, if present trends continue, we will be using up crude oil at such a rate…that there won’t be any more crude oil. You’ll drive up to the pump and say, `Fill ‘er up, buddy,’ and he’ll say, `I am very sorry, there isn’t any.’”
• Kenneth Watt, Ecologist

“Dr. S. Dillon Ripley, secretary of the Smithsonian Institute, believes that in 25 years, somewhere between 75 and 80 percent of all the species of living animals will be extinct.”
• Sen. Gaylord Nelson

“The world has been chilling sharply for about twenty years,” he declared. “If present trends continue, the world will be about four degrees colder for the global mean temperature in 1990, but eleven degrees colder in the year 2000. This is about twice what it would take to put us into an ice age.”
• Kenneth Watt, Ecologist

Cool Video

I was never much of a "bicycle guy," but it's hard not to appreciate how cool this is.

So?

Are we going to talk about this or what? I mean, the last time I checked this country was divided on the issue of gay marriage, not completely in agreement of the injustice of it not being illegal. So, as usual, when one voices an opinion not typically embraced by coastal dwellers, Hollywood and the media bust out the torches. To be fair, though, I heard she also smoked a cigarette.

Demonizing Fat Peolple

Staying slim will help save the planet
Like with smokers, there is a major push to demonize fat people.
I predict a soda tax, a fast food tax, a fat person fee when riding on public transportation, and a fat person fee when receiving health care.
Taxing people's addictions have become all to easy in today's climate. What is even scarier is how willing people are to swallow this garbage.
Long gone are the good old days when they just blamed all the world's problems on the Jews.

Foxy RINO

"I am concerned about the environment. I love to wear black. I think government is best when it stays out of people’s lives and business as much as possible. I love punk rock. I believe in a strong national defense. I have a tattoo. I believe government should always be efficient and accountable. I have lots of gay friends. And yes, I am a Republican."

I don't know much about her yet but Meghan McCain has piqued my interest.
Here is a recent speech of hers.

I have to read and learn more about her but she's got me listening for now.

And she's kinda foxy.

Really?

The EPA said this and Reuters sent it out and made it a top story? Wow!

Give me a break.

Thanks, CJ.

For all the joy you send my way to get the weekend started.

Thursday, April 16, 2009

Wow, Lame.

This has got to be some joke where the same people have kept it out for 4 years so no one else could ever watch that garbage.

I'm Confused.

Does this mean the New York Jews are better than the Jews in other football cities? I have no doubt these games will be rescheduled. You know what game won't be rescheduled? Chargers-Titans on Christmas Day, which last time I checked is a pretty big Holiday on the Christian calendar (and every Jew I know celebrates it too-in the commercial way, at least). but hey, I think the whole world has come to the obvious conclusion that the Christians have had it too good for too long. Of course, I will actually enjoy watching football on Christmas, because I don't believe that doing so means I hate God or my family or whatever the reasoning here is.

The Onion Is On Fire.

There's no need to look that up, cause I just told you that it's true.

Treasury Department Issues Emergency Recall Of All US Dollars

Guess What, You Stupid Bitch?

Boys will be fucking boys! And guess what parents? The reason your children were able to access these explicit images is because you are so focused on preaching tolerance and you are so worried about discrimination that your schools probably aren't even allowed to block ANY gay and lesbian content on their computers. And to the lady who JUST wants to make sure the 5TH GRADERS get into the juvenile justice system and receive the help they so desperately need: FUUUUUUUUUUCK YOU! Once again, the schools and parents have a great opportunity to teach kids some important lessons and instead of doing that, they call the police and fuck up some kids forever. Motherfuck, this pisses me off!

Tax Day!

What better time to think of no IRS...

Good Stuff...

...from, of course, The Onion.

Go Unions Go!

Away that is!

I've been involved in a few business deals these past months, so this sunk in with me. If you have money, and you are offering to buy in to something failing, you have a lot of power. The auto worker's unions need to get a clue.

Fix It Again Tony!

Cheer Up!

I know there's some hurtin' folks out there right now. I hope this helps.

Arwen's Song

Just geeked out to The Return of the King and remembered that I always loved this song. So much so that I googled it.
To my surprise I found out that Liv Tyler is the one singing it.
Weird.
Wasn't expecting that at all. I kinda thought she never really had any talent. Just whispered her lines while giving off a thousand mile stare, (except of course for the Nazgoul chase scene. That was pretty bad ass) but since hearing this, I like her more.
Which isn't saying much since all it means is that I went from not liking her at all to liking her just a little. Huh.
I take that back. I kinda love her right now.

Pop-up book Business Card

Can I get one with a middle finger? How would that be.
Bam! Right in your face. That's right, it's a middle finger. Wanna hire me now?

Uh, Ow!

"Yeah, you like that. Don't you, Bitch." Remember that scene from the South Park Movie? 
I'm sure Saddam did. Apparently Saddam watched the movie over and over again.  
I wonder what he thought about being Satan's gay lover.

Man Solo!

Sad.

This is the greatest Adam Ant song ever.

And this is No Doubt's shitty remake.

Reminds me of the time I remade E.T. by taking a shit in a bowl of Reese's Pieces and then hucking it out the window during a full moon while singing Heartlight by Neil Diamond. It was very moving.

Our President Is Embarrassing Us

This is the kind of speech you would expect to hear at a beauty pageant. What did Miss America have for us next, "Why can't we be friends" on the oboe? Gugghhh!
And I take exception to this whole, "we are the only ones to use a nuclear bomb therefore we should lead by example" bullshit. How bout, no more benevolent dictators = no more bombings.
Problem solved.
Nuclear war averted.

Now here's this. To me, nothing major, but I do get the feeling that the Saudi king should be bent over when Obama gives him this beautiful gesture.

Friday Vid To Lighten Y'all Up.


I couldn't agree more.

Death To The Republican Party?

Just a couple of links I thought that were interesting.
This first one talks about the 38 Republicans who voted against an alternative GOP budget that called for $4.8 trillion (wait, I should write that number out. $4,800,000,000,000.00 There, that's better) less in spending.
Gingrich warns of a 3rd conservative party in 2012.
Which would be a shame. Since we are apart of the two party system, that would mean only the Republicans will suffer from such a move.
Naturally, I wish the Dems were be the ones to go away and maybe some Libertarian offshoot could take their place, but after watching the last election(s), I've realized that the Democratic party is the oldest of the two parties for a reason. The people can be bought.

Video Friday For My Dad

Comrade and I are going down this weekend to visit Dad and so I am posting video Friday tonight.
This video is dedicated to my Dad. It is one of his favorite songs.

Of Course.

The Transformer movies are your basic mindless fun movies about big robots and a girl with a killer rig, so it's hard to take them too seriously. That doesn't change the fact that I'm rolling my eyes like I've never rolled them before at the news there will be a hybrid Transformer in the sequel. Yeah, a hybrid hybrid. It's enough to make the idea of a crotchety old Transformer palatable. Seriously, there's a feeble-minded old man transformer with a cane. Don't even try to wrap your brain around the pink motorcycle girl Transformer. It's a cartoon, though, so I can forgive the characters cause-look tits!

Oh, God.

Atlas Shrugged: The Movie. I can barely even begin to imagine the ways they will butcher this, especially since it appears the Rand Estate no longer has a voice in the project. I imagine the trains will all run on bio-fuels, Reardon metal will be made from the most innovative recycling procedures ever developed, and Dagney will track down John Gault after finding mysterious gum wrappers wherever a tycoon quits his business.

Hey Guys.

Do me a favor and don't even think about clicking this link. Don't say I didn't warn you.

Finally Watched The Watchmen.

I don't understand what all the fanboy bitching was about. I thought that was an excellent cinematic interpretation. It wasn't until I really sat back and thought about it that I realized how much was left out. I realized then that I had filled a lot of the holes with my own knowledge of the book, and so I could see why the majority of the viewing audience who hadn't actually read the book may not have been completely up to speed. And while I get the significance, that was an awful lot of swinging blue dick. All in all, though, I really liked the movie.

Clinton Advisor Says Planet Already Overcrowded

This article is a positive/negative for me. On the one hand, Dr. Federoff spouts off with one of my least favorite comments, "the earths population is too big." A statement that shows no proof what so ever. With life expectancy at an all time high world wide, and high food reserves, one wonders what they base their analysis on.
But as I read just a little further, the Dr. did touch on something I find interesting and agree with.
Here is the money quote

"Dr Fedoroff, who wrote a book about GM Foods in 2004, believes critics of genetically modified maize, corn and rice are living in bygone times."

Exactly! Using caveman technology will not be able to sustain our current population, but modern technology will.
And the same thing could have been said a hundred years ago. Two hundred years ago. Can I hear 3 hundred? As population advances, so does technology and vice versa.

Technology is a good thing. Man needs to be allowed to advance and grow. If that happens, I believe the pie gets bigger and the sky is the limit.
