Overnight Open Thread (5 Apr 2014)
— CDR M

Aw, poor baby. Democrat Jim Moran thinks he's not paid enough.

Aside from the $174,000 base pay these turds get from us, we also give them a generous allowance to cover the cost of housing and staff along with a plethora of freebies like haircuts, office supplies, health insurance, travel and postage.
Most of these clowns become millionaires in their first term in office simply because Congress exempts itself from Stock Market insider trading laws that would send ordinary folks like us to prison.
Then there are the gifts and favors bestowed on these jerkwads by lobbyists and other special interests, particularly on the Democrat side. IÂ’m sure the gun control lobby alone pours buckets of money over his head for his Â“principledÂ” stand on an assault weapons ban.
I was unable to find out Mr. MoranÂ’s net worth but considering that heÂ’s been a Congress whore for 23 years IÂ’d reckon heÂ’s worth at least several million dollars. Not bad for a poor boy from Virginia struggling to get along on a congressmanÂ’s pay.

Well, you can always quit if the pay ain't good enough Mr. Moran. Pillow Fight Day

Just a reminder, it is International Pillow Fight Day today.

ThermoNERFular War

Yes. This needs to be a real thing and not an April Fool's Day joke. NERF Nuke. This would be awesome at work.

Chemistry Jokes

War on E-cigs

Good God. The growing hysteria over e-cigs is getting out of hand. Soaring numbers of people are being poisoned by e-cigs, doctors warn. I guess these doctors missed the part where 5 times as many folks were poisoned by concentrated laundry detergent packs. Kids will get into anything left out and about. To focus on e-cigs is ridiculous.

Gears Of War

When mechanical analog computers ruled the waves. I love this part about why they didn't digitize the Iowa class battleships.

Â“We found that digitizing the computer would improve neither the reliability nor the accuracy of the system and recommended, Â‘Don't bother.Â’Â” Even without digital computers, the Iowa could fire 2,700-pound Â“dumbÂ” shells nearly 30 miles inland with deadly accuracy, within a circle of probable error of around 80 meters. Some of its shells had circles of destruction larger than that.

Crosswing Difficulties

I still have not so fond memories of landing at Lajes Field in the Azores with some pretty nasty crosswinds. One second we would be within limits for the aircraft, the next second we'd be out of limits. Just had to time the touchdown for when we were within limits. I know why the runway is 300 feet wide and we used all of it up.

A Museum Of What?

I guess there is a museum for everything. Welcome to the Museum of Erectile Dysfunction. Historical treatments seem to be a bit painful.

This electrostimulation device from the 1880s may look innocuous enough - until you find out that the short cylinder goes up the rectum, while the length of the longer probe is inserted in the urethra. One has a positive charge, one has a negative charge, and together they pack a wallop intended to jolt the genitalia back into action.

21 My heart bleeds for those poor Congresspersons, slaving away in their tiny offices, motivated only by a selfless goal of doing good, and accidentally becoming rich while writing laws that specifically exempt themselves. Martha Stewart basically went to jail for putting plastic in the bin labeled paper compared to what these scum do on a daily basis. Best part is that don't have to be attractive or smart to excel in their jobs, just not blatantly corrupt!

44 27 Nah. If you don't already have a stimulant addiction, you probably don't want one. All stimulants raise blood pressure and the risk of heart disease. And you'd probably gain the weight back once you quit, plus then you'd have withdrawal. No fun. Nicotine is not good for you. Getting it via e-cigs is just monumentally better than getting it via Breathing In Fire.

I'm looking for any help shedding some tonnage. *** Dude. Seriously. I have gained 40 lbs since being out of work on disability and it never would have occurred to me to ever think of e-cigs as a potential solution. The truth is this: If there were a healthful, easy way to lose weight, it wouldn't come so cheap as an e-cig. Instead, it would cost thousands of dollars and people would be lines up for miles to buy it. The reason people who smoke lose weight is because of the damage it is doing to their bodies. As for the oral fixation part of smoking, suck on a sugar-free piece of candy or gum, but don't trade one unhealthy addiction for another.

But it's worth pointing out that trading real cigs for e-cigs isn't just trading one harmful addiction for another; it's trading a horrible habit for a not-good habit.

evening all. that kitteh looks grumpy. great ont CDR M.

in re: Moran. his net worth before divorce peaked in 2007 between 2 million and 23 million making him the 29th richest in the house. it dwindled to about nothing (according to financial disclosures) in the last few years. I'm trying not to shed tears ... of laughter.

in re the car thread: looked it up. the grill and hood styling of the 69 Shelby was different than that of a 69 Mustang. The 70 Mustang Mach 1 copied the 69 Shelby.

bummer on Florida. they looked good for the first 5 minutes then forgot to play the rest of the game.

127 Logprof, allow me to second (or third, or fourth) what Peaches said. I spent 20 years of my youth as a personal trainer. The best thing you can do for yourself is get out and walk. Really. Just walk. If you want to get fancy, subtract your age from the # 220, then take 60% (or so) of that - walk at a pace that gets your heart rate to that # and sustain it. Minimum 20 minutes per day, 3days per week. Preferably more. A lot more. you don't need to kill yourself, Just get out and walk. A doggeh would be a good excuse if you don't already have one. Does that make sense? Let's say I'm 50 years old... 220 - 50 = 170. 170 x 60% = 102. If burning fat is my goal, I want to walk (or bike, or whatever) at a pace that will get my heart rate to 102 beats per minute, then sustain that for an extended time. The mor the merrier. If you go too high (70% +), you stop burning fat as efficiently, and get into anaerobic exercise, so maintain that 60% ish rate. I could go on if you want...

157 "I could go on if you want..." Thank you for that information. I find myself very much in line with that profile. But then, I can add changes in elevation to my daily walks. When I go downtown on BART I walk first downhill for about 15 minutes, then uphill for about another 10, ending up about -400ft in elevation from where I started. Then I take the train downtown and walk more, but that is all flat for the most part.

Posted by: navybrat at April 05, 2014 11:02 PM (JgC5a ------- Well, since you've mentioned it, "cross training" is a great way to go. bounce between 60% - 85% of your max heartrate (220 - your age) and you are getting the benefits of both fat-burning & cardio. Unless you're Olympic caliber (or striving to be), there is no benefit to exceeding 85% of your max HR. One could run a marathon every two weeks & it wouldn't be exercise. To get any benefit, consistency is the key - minimum 3 days per week. Minimum. Fat loss? It's best to commit to every day. That way, if you miss a day or two per week, you're still doing great (5 days/week is great).

On a kinda related note, a higher-up in the Japanese government said that they were going to shoot down any middle to long-range missile(s) the Norks put up. Maybe Littl' Un is feeling a bit roney and wants to test some more missiles or even a crude nuke?

They are nowhere near the territorial limits and nothing prevents them from going there any time they wish. what is disconcerting is how many whips we have sent to look. Unless there is more going on here than meets the eye I would have thought we would have sent a have five or ten ships and five or then planes to flood the zone and make sure we find it; not to mention a few subs.

Posted by: yankeefifth at April 05, 2014 08:13 PM (rDidD)

395 Long day today. Started at 6 AM when I loaded the guns up and went to the range.The 30-06 is now sighted in for 100 yards and is ready to take on the nefarious North American hoofed rat. I still suck with the pistol, but I can at least shoot minute of dickbeater at 15 yards. Also, I tweaked in the new magazines for Granddad's High Standard, so now I have three functional magazines for that vintage .22 pistol.

The day ended with a cruise-in at Lenoir NC, a 3 hour trip each way. I just got home and I'm beat, I'm taking the train to Slumbertown as soon as my after-action report is done.

Tomorrow...well, I guess technically it's today...I have nothing to do and it will probably take me all day. I'm going to get an early start by sleeping late.

Later roonz and roonettez, fear no evil!

410 366Â Shredded Chi,Â Why do you watch that trash? ------- Too poor to have cable, & it's really just on as background noise. and like NDH said upthread, it can be fun just to mock. Besides, you have to know what the enemy is saying - i will even admit to sometimes watching The View in bits & pieces.! An aside - I saw about 20 minutes of SNL last week, and the "Black Jeopardy" skit was funny.

Adam why are you being such an asshole? Show all these good people here where I EVER insinuated anyone was being run off. EVER. Do it. Or just admit how big of a lying asshole you are. Twice.

It never happened. Prove me wrong, dick. Or save us all some time and just admit what a f'n loser you are.

And that assholeishness extends to outing my "real" name too. What's your motivation for being such a dickhead? Or is it just so natural that it's its own reward?

483 it is way too early to even begin speculating as to who replaces letterman. no way is it gonna be that handler lady; and I use that term loosely in this instance. she is not especially funny or clever more rude and shocking. it is good for her little gig on cable but no one wants to see it every evening, especially not in the late night demographic. if ferguson were smart he would stay right where he is doing what he does and continuing to refine and improve as he has. nothing wrong with what he as now, and it is his speed and personality. hopefully he does not get his undies in a bunch and start demanding a promotion out of ego.

Running your own business is scary as hell sometimes, and starting up is especially hard. I just figured that I would rather starve than work for another company that is going to make a lot of money off of me and arbitrarily let me go. I have been mostly unemployed for 4 years. Had short and awful stints with some very bad companies and executives. The atmosphere out there is horrible and the companies know it. They just don't give a shit about employees.

If we go to the Rio, which is not on the strip but close enough to the strip we can get rooms for around 100 to 120 a night, maybe better if we get more people. if no one cares about proximity to the strip we could get lower rates. anyway, I have never stayed at the rio but I hear it has all the amenities of a strip hotel including a pool scene. my assumption is the horde will want to hang together some of the time so having a big place with lots of options would be good. anyway, I need more info from the horde.

"I realized before I left Taiwan, in the States you can never ask an employee to do any job you wouldn't do yourself."

"Sounds like a great philosophy. By the way, what did you do in Taiwan?'

The Feds bust into Stratton Oakmont (and find some of the employees so jacked up, they're fistfighting them). Then Scorsese did something of a "The Graduate" takeoff by playing the Lemonheads version of "Mrs. Robinson" while showing DiCaprio (as Belfort) going to a min-security jail in Nevada by school bus. And a shot of Belfort enjoying himself playing tennis behind barbed wire. Finally, Belfort doing what he does today: his seminars. And a final shot of the large crowd at the seminar, as "Cast Your Fate To The Wind" starts to play. Incredibly good flick.

585 Obama has never fired anyone because he has never had a job. Ever. This is the first time in world history that a superpower has elected a leader who has never held a job. My 13 year old has more real world experience that Teh JEF. We have collectively committed suicide. Death by Incompetance in leadership. Posted by: Truck Monkey, Gruntled New Business Owner at April 06 how does a community organizer fire someone? ask em to quit showing up at protests?

586 579 it is not a long hike to the strip anyway. It depends on how drunk you are. Posted by: Colorado Alex at April 06 heh, well by hike I mean cab ride. Posted by: yankeefifth at April 06, 2014 01:21 AM (rDidD) I've made that walk. Wouldn't want to do it at all in the summer heat.

587 MWNP: isn't the Rio in Vegas stuck in the 1980s? It sure looks like it. They apparently haven't upgraded their exterior look since then.

588 Good evening, Horde! It's our last night in Cancun. Dave and I blew off the awards dinner portion of the evening, and instead I went to pick up some awesome antijito style food while he watched the UConn game. We ate and watched the Wildcats win, then went to the beach party. Now I back in the room and he's out doing the hob and/or nob that would make me want to stab myself. We leave tomorrow morning with a stopover in Charlotte, I think. Home to kiss Little goodnight!

590 RWC: oh, there's also a scene where the Feds *try* to get Belfort to get his #1 friend/assistant to spill the beans on Stratton's dastardly deeds. They wire him up and send him to dinner with him, but Belfort shows him a post-it reading "Don't incriminate yourself, I'm wearing a wire." That's when the Feds give up and raid the place.

Posted by: qdpsteve at April 05, 2014 09:24 PM (HVI5a)

591 I've spent over a month of my life staying at the Rio in Vegas, and it's an average to good hotel that needs some remodeling. The Morons would be happy there as they have a good range of food price point places, including a pretty killer buffet. Rooms are big and fairly nice, which is their schtick, being an all suites hotel and all. Posted by: ManWithNoParty at April 06 firsthand moron reviews are good to have. should we mark you in?

594 Steve, I had a lot of Marines as employees. They're Americans. They range from the magnificent to whining losers. Mostly just fine, but hey, things can happen.

This was a Nationalist Chinese Marine. The boss and I had both been raised on the stories of them swimming to the mainland from Quemoy and Matsu, raiding a town, and swimming out. We very suitably peed down our expensively-suited pant legs.

He got the job, it was great, his wife left him, he moved (up) three times, got a better wife, and now has to bitch about the property taxes in Northern Virginia. I guess his long-distance swimming improved too.

596 Incredibly good flick. And I like/appreciate that it contains *no* political sucker punches whatsoever. Posted by: qdpsteve at April 06, 2014 01:21 AM (HVI5a) Thanks for spoiling it!

Yeah, I was waiting for some political BS to enter.

Posted by: RWC at April 05, 2014 09:27 PM (QeH9j)

597 Stringer: yikes. At least it sounds like he was the all-time best hire.

Posted by: qdpsteve at April 05, 2014 09:28 PM (HVI5a)

598 586 Older hotel, true. That's why I mentioned it was in need ofman update. However, if you can deal with that, one ofmthe better pricing deals in Vegas. It's where I went prior to a divorce request 4 years ago, for a week. A couple of interesting sidetrips of an hour or so were included in the trip after winning $4,800 at Blackjack.......so, I like the place.

599 What is Social Justice?

Anytime they put Social in front it's like dis, disease vs. ease, disjustice.
Frankly they can just put it up their urethra.

608 And then there's where Belfort is zonked on ludes and *has to drive back to his mansion.* Sort of a drugged-up update of classic silent comedy.

Posted by: qdpsteve at April 05, 2014 09:33 PM (HVI5a)

615 bebe's boobs: maybe you can explain something for me. How expensive (I know it's a range) are Louboutin shoes? A few years ago I remember hearing they were ridonkulously so. But I seem to see more and more women wearing them. Are women suddenly getting Obama-ordered huge raises these days, or are the prices going way down??

Posted by: RWC at April 05, 2014 09:37 PM (QeH9j)

617 608 No good reason to leave any big hotel in Vegas. They all have booze, food gambling and shows. That's why they are set up as they are. Only reason I've seen to go elsewhere is specific shows.

Posted by: ManWithNoParty at April 05, 2014 09:37 PM (ojnk6)

618 RWC: exactly. Hilarious, hilarious stuff.

Posted by: qdpsteve at April 05, 2014 09:38 PM (HVI5a)

619 I think Lou'sAGirl lives in Vegas. Posted by: yankeefifth at April 06, 2014 01:27 AM (rDidD) Lou's a Girl lives near Las Vegas (Boulder City, IIRC). I'm in Vegas proper (though almost all of the strip is actually outside the city proper). There are a couple other Nevada 'rons and/or 'ettes, IIRC.

Posted by: The Political Hat at April 05, 2014 09:38 PM (AymDN)

620 oh yeah, when I told MrsYankeeFifth I was going to a meetup in Vegas I got the most condescending eye roll and "whatever" ever. Guess she is not attending.

Posted by: yankeefifth at April 05, 2014 09:39 PM (rDidD)

621 The only problem I could find with WOWS: there's absolutely *no one* to root for, especially after Belfort punches his wife in the stomach near the end. It's sorta/kinda like "A Clockwork Orange" in that regard. The only people who seems to be somewhat sane and decent in the whole flick are (1) Belfort's first wife, and (2) the FBI investigator who takes him down, and we barely see either of them.

Posted by: qdpsteve at April 05, 2014 09:40 PM (HVI5a)

622 590 Sure. I'm in. I've traveled a ton in my life, mostly to major Convention cities.

Posted by: RWC at April 05, 2014 09:40 PM (QeH9j)

624 How expensive (I know it's a range) are Louboutin shoes? Too expensive for me to look at the price tags. I think the heeled ones go from $700 up. They make flats, but I don't like them. Prefer the London Soles. Those are around $200 if I remember correctly.

Posted by: bebe's boobs destroy at April 05, 2014 09:41 PM (b6cSS)

625 RWC: I'll check the blu-ray special features. The Teddy Bear footage would be a nice addition. ;-)

Posted by: qdpsteve very expensive, but they should last forever because, if you are doing it right, they will never touch the floor.

Posted by: bebe's boobs destroy at April 05, 2014 09:47 PM (b6cSS)

637 RWC, another hilarious scene. I think Scorsese actually got into trouble for including that line. The Palsy charities/what not complained about unfair stereotyping, etc etc. Kudos to Scorsese for keeping it in there.

Posted by: qdpsteve at April 05, 2014 09:50 PM (HVI5a)

641 The feds are going after e-cigs because 1) they threaten the taxes they get from regular cigs (politicians want you to smoke so they can get the taxes no mater what they say) and 2) tobacco growers are threatened obviously, so they pay the pols to go after them.

642

I've been self employed since 93 and have had no employees since 2002. I'll never be fabulously wealthy but I'm happy. Dealing with employees sucked and is the worst part of running a business.

Posted by: freaked at April 06, 2014 01:00 AM (S1jRh)

Ditto. I laid off all my employees, closed my office, and run my e-commerce server via the cloud. I use Grasshopper for handling phone calls and outsource the rest.

Posted by: HuuskerDu at April 05, 2014 09:55 PM (d3MA1)

645 What's the timeframe everyone is thinking of? Late 2014? Spring 2015? There was a mention up-thread of 20-July-2014-ish. I like this, as I plan on being at China Lake about that time frame. Plus, my recon of Excalibur--MGM Grand and casinos north indicates that While the heat outside might be unbearable, the A/C and refreshments inside makes up for it.

Posted by: qdpsteve at April 06, 2014 01:50 AM (HVI5a) Best times to go to Vegas, weather-wise, is mid-April to middle of June, or October to November, IMHO. Vegas has excellent off-strip fun such as hiking, off-roading in the desert, hobo-hunting, and a chance to fire full-auto guns.

Posted by: The Political Hat at April 05, 2014 09:56 PM (AymDN)

647 I think that would be Anna, with all her links. Posted by: bebe's boobs destroy at April 06, 2014 01:47 AM (b6cSS) True. But Sainthood should be bestowed up Fenelon.

648 RWC: no, it's a cruise. They hit... bad weather. If you missed it, pull WOWS up on Netflix and watch that scene IMMEDIATELY!!! ;-)

Posted by: qdpsteve at April 05, 2014 09:58 PM (HVI5a)

649 July *could* work, but fall would give me the most time to save my pennies and prepare. Anyway, hope you all keep me posted. Again, a Vegas meetup sounds fantastic.

Posted by: qdpsteve at April 05, 2014 09:59 PM (HVI5a)

Vegas hotel rates go up and down like the stock market. A $350 suite at the Venetian on a Saturday goes for $90 on a Wednesday during a slow week (no big conventions in town.)

Posted by: HuuskerDu at April 05, 2014 10:00 PM (d3MA1)

651 647 RWC: no, it's a cruise. They hit... bad weather. If you missed it, pull WOWS up on Netflix and watch that scene IMMEDIATELY!!! ;-) Posted by: qdpsteve at April 06, 2014 01:58 AM (HVI5a) That's not on Netflix is it? Unless you're using the time machine. Was it the cruise where dude got out of jail?

Posted by: booger at April 06, 2014 01:53 AM (xRDdL) Yup. I gave up smoking in favor of vaping last November, on my birthday. Haven't had a real cigarette in 6 months. The taxes they are missing must be killing them. The Tobacco and Pharma Lobbjes can not be happy with this, as they miss revenue. So, naturally a healtheir option must be killed with fire.

Cheapest rates in Vegas are during the slow times: Thanksgiving week, Christmas week, April around tax time.

Posted by: HuuskerDu at April 05, 2014 10:03 PM (d3MA1)

655 RWC: no. Belfort's money fence (Naomi's British aunt) passes away unexpectedly. Then all Jordan can think about is retrieving her money before the Feds can find it, as his Swiss banker (played by Jean Dujardin) advises him. He finds out about all of this while running Stratton Oakmont from his yacht in Italy. Belfort then bullies his family and captain into sailing to Switzerland, even though Naomi's furious they can't go straight to London for her aunt's funeral. So guess what... Belfort & Co. encounter the perfect storm on the way to Geneva. Again, it's fantastically funny.

657 653 Cheapest rates for an off strip hotel like the Rio are Sunday-Wednesday nights. Last personal stay there, arrived on Sunday and left Thursday morning. Total room bill? Around $250 plus the other stuff for the stay.

686 are you seriously bouncing moron's comments? I tried to do that. Was a pain, printing them out, transferring to Silly Putty, then getting it into a ball with the comment on the outside just to see if it would bounce. Any bounce that did occur seemed to be more the Silly Putty than the comment itself.

706 Update to my last post: (2011) ----- (Hoyer cashed in at least $166,000 in assets last year and put the money in his federal thrift savings plan, which is not included on his disclosure form.) http://tinyurl.com/kz95r67

707 Whoops. Back to sleep. I woke up cause the clock went haywire and saids it was an hour later, then I posted stuff, about Moran, I thought 2x, but 2nd was about Hoyer, is an a-hole too. His applies to all though- they can legally hide assets from us, though.

The pilot gathered it up taxied to terminal thanked us for flying Allenganey Airlines and that was that

709 574 Obama has never fired anyone because he has never had a job. Ever. This is the first time in world history that a superpower has elected a leader who has never held a job. My 13 year old has more real world experience that Teh JEF. We have collectively committed suicide. Death by Incompetance in leadership.

720 Had a scary landing in Atlanta after Andrew in 92. We tried to fly in from Orlando, but due to after storms, got sent to Jacksonville for more fuel after circling Atl for about 90 minutes. Came back and the pilot went in. Just asbout at landing. A wind shear kicked in, and the plane got slammed down on the right side, blowing out right side and front tires. Came down on the left side and killed those tires as well. Ended up in the grass off the side of the runway. Took buses to the terminal. Feel lucky to still be here.
