Happy New Year!
And welcome to the last ONT of 2009 all. I'm so glad you all made it here tonight.
I think for most of us 2009 was a pretty sucky year. And of course to cap it off the comments are down so you'll have to direct your drunken yells over to the old New Site in the top post back up again.
Here's to hoping 2010 is better.
10 Unusual Traditions for Ringing in the New Year around the World
Well I've done the grape thing in Mexico, but I've never worn special Bolivian underwear. Doesn't seem all that fun.
The real reason women drink too much at home
They can't do measurement units? Well not being able to handle math does seem like a convenient excuse.

With the signing of an under-publicized amendment to Executive Order 12425, Barack Obama has fundamentally altered your constitutional rights. His actions are undermining your rights to protect personal privacy from a foreign internationalist police agency named Interpol.
Interpol is the enforcement arm of the International Criminal Court, or ICC. The United States never signed onto the Rome Treaty, which created the ICC, because of the potential for abuse by foreign interests. Obama has signaled he may sign the treaty over these objections and subject Americans to prosecution overseas in the ICC. This is harmful for two reasons. First, the U.S. Constitution clearly states that it is the supreme law of our land, and allowing the ICC to supersede the U.S. Constitution violates America's sovereignty. Second, the War on Terror is unpopular with Europeans, and the ICC may attempt to prosecute heroic American soldiers with trumped-up war crimes. Obama is putting brave American men and women at grave risk.
An added wrinkle to this executive order is that Interpol's operations center for the United States is housed within our own Justice Department. Many of the agents are Americans who work under the aegis of Interpol. This order has potentially created the new civilian security force that Obama proposed during his campaign. This group of law-enforcement officials is no longer subject to the restraints enshrined in the U.S. Constitution.
The order guarantees that Interpol officers have immunity from prosecution for crimes they may commit in the United States. Ironically, some Interpol nations are attempting to try American intelligence agents for their work abroad in the War on Terror.
This order shows blatant disregard for the U.S. Constitution. While Obama is extending due process rights to terrorists he is weakening those same rights for American citizens. If a citizen were to be prosecuted by Interpol, their newly granted immunity would interfere with the discovery process. Since Interpol files are immune to disclosure, a citizen could be denied his right to see the information used to prosecute him or her.
Obama's executive order has done more to weaken civil liberties than the much-maligned Patriot Act. The silence in the mainstream media on this issue should scare all freedom-loving Morons. Obama just signed away parts of our precious legal protections.
Never, never, never give up.

On the plus side, I opened the package from my sister which contained my wayward cocktail shaker (left in Denver, but now resting comfortably here) and I found a lovely ring with a pink stone and two "diamonds" on either side of it that she sent me just because I said I was looking for more pink jewelry.

Happy New Year!
Some stuff I posted a few minutes ago on the "other" AOS site:
TSA Withdraws Subpoenas Against Bloggers
In the wake of public outcry against the Transportation Security Administration for serving civil subpoenas on two bloggers, the government agency has canceled the legal action and apologized for the strong-arm tactics agents used.
____
You're doing a heckuva job there, Eric Holder.
==========
Some good news to end/start the year:
Judge throws out Blackwater guards' charges in Iraqi deaths
A federal judge in Washington on Thursday dismissed criminal charges against five Blackwater security guards accused of killing 17 unarmed Iraqi civilians in an incident that strained U.S.-Iraq relations and sparked an outcry over the military's use of private contractors.
The judge did not rule on the substance of the charges against the security guards, but instead decided that prosecutors had wrongly relied on what the guards told State Department investigators shortly after the incident. As government contractors, the Blackwater employees were required to speak to an investigator after a shooting.
U.S. District Judge Ricardo Urbina said that the use of these statements -- which were given with a promise of immunity -- violated the defendants' rights against compelled self-incrimination.
"In their zeal to bring charges against the defendants . . . the government used compelled statements to guide its charging decisions . . . and ultimately, to obtain the indictment in this case," the judge wrote in a 90-page opinion.
The efforts of prosecutors and investigators to show that their case did not hinge on compelled testimony "were all too often contradictory, unbelievable and lacking in credibility," Urbina wrote.
Because the indictment was thrown out on legal grounds, the government could bring an appeal. It could also re-charge the guards, although a new prosecution could be difficult given the judge's finding that the case was so thoroughly tainted.
[ . . . ]
Rep. Jan Schakowsky (D-Ill.), who has in the past sponsored legislation that would prohibit the hire of private military contractors, said she was dismayed by the news.

Respectfully, Jan, stick it up your ass.

Rum, it was at Nordstrom in October, I grabbed it on the off chance IÂ’d have somewhere to wear it. I was hoping to be in a relationship by now. Wow, was I wrong about that one. I didnÂ’t want the dress to go to waste so I wore it tonight. I wore it with tights and my Vera Wang biker boots. I confess IÂ’ve been watching way too much Buffy the Vampire Slayer lately.

The Central Valley is pretty reliably conservative, so Sacramento and Washington could give a rat's ass if the area depopulates or dies.
A large share of the produce that the liberal health nuts eat comes from that valley, but I'm hearing that the food processors are importing from China now.
Those same leftist dipshits who are shutting down the Central Valley have veggie stores telling you the produce is local and instructs you to always buy local. Where the fuck do these hippie dickwads think "local" is, West Covina?

Thanks for the encouragement. But I must confess, I was inspired by a sudden and painful lack of breath in a very sudden fashion. Not only was I having a hard time breathing, but it was accompanied by a raw, burning pain in my upper respiratory area. That was it.
When I get a craving, I pop a Stonewall hard tobacco in my mouth and carry on. The breathing thing scared me a little.

I don't know what Stonewall Hard Tobacco is (chew?) but be careful with that too. The incidence of head and neck cancer and chew is very high. It is amazing how smoking makes lungs so black. I work in cardiac surgery, and you can always tell who the smokers are if you open the pleura and look at their lungs. Again, good luck! I know it's hard.

runningrn,
Stonewall is a tobacco lozenge that fits right down in the corner of your mouth and helps with the nicotine craving. There is no juice or any of that to deal with. Still, it is nicotine and all that but only four or five are used each day. And right now, I'll take that over smoking hands down.
Down the road, maybe I'll dump those too. But for now, I want to get my wind back.

I didn't realize that was the name of that actor. I've seen him in so many roles, but I guess I never paid any attention to what his name was. He's played the bad guy in several movies and is very convincing.

Diet and weight loss techniques have just hit a new low. I just saw a commercial for the "Drive Thru Diet" for...wait for it... Taco Bell.

Drive Thru Diet is likely accurate. You ingest it and it never stops. It just drives right on through you.

I am military so I am getting a 3.4 percent raise this year, found out that I will be up for promotion a year yearly, my wife is pregnant with my first child (Molly!), am moving back to the state (the best country on earth!) from overseas, and am moving to a (Naval) community that I wanted to be in for the last ten years. Every year I have had has been the best year I have ever had because of the opportunities offered by being lucky enough to be born (in a sheep shearers truck-mount trailer) in the U.S.A.

I was posting about Coulter saying she was going to cut back on hobo murdering this yr over on Twitter a couple of hrs ago. Hmm, why does that sound familiar?

Rum, I confess that the New Year’s song I have to hear every year is Barry Manilow’s “It’s just another New Year’s Eve.” Lame, I know, but it reminds me of my childhood when he was on Dick Clark’s rockin NYE every year. Back in the good old days when performers still wore clothes to perform.

I loved American Bandstand. Not in the 50s obviously. In the 70s. I was very little, but my sisters were teenagers so we watched it religiously. “Great beat, I can dance to it!”

One of the joys I had while back visiting family was introducing my 7 yo nephew to the wonders of fireworks. I had to explain what everything was ("these are 'black cats' even though there's no black cat on the package...") but he caught on quick. His favorites so far are bottle rockets.

I once got stuck in my apartment years ago in northern Oklahoma during a massive blizzard, and all I had in the fridge were two large bottles of expensive Moet champagne. I called Domino's had them order a large pizza to me in the snow and ate the whole pie and drank both bottles. Was I bombed - It was being on LSD. Nothing better than a major champagne high.

Might not be, though.

That would make a terrific plot - having mad scientists as parents. Would they cackle during the parent-teacher conference?

OK chemjeff but you have to visit Rum in February then, fairÂ’s fair.

Job hunting is going to suck.

Aren't you trying to get back into paralegal?

Rum, tell me about it, I am not looking forward to job hunting. IÂ’ve been putting it off but that wonÂ’t work forever. So, I guess I need to roll up my sleeves and try. Blech.

I do know someone who owns a very successful production company, but the times I tried asking her for help weren't very productive. And I didn't want to pester her because she's so busy.Posted by: wherestherum at January 01, 2010 12:31 AM (gofDd)
Chemjeff, I havenÂ’t had a job in 10 years, I retired young from a certain software company located in Redmond. But, I can no longer depend on the stock market IÂ’m afraid, so I need to get a real job sometime in the next 2 years.

Interesting conversations I've caught up on. Think I'll have to scour the archives for the infamous Memorial Day thread, since I heard about it on the other site.
Like I said, I read AoS during the day. This is a treat to stay up and play.

That's a rather amazing story. Not many of us can say that...
Posted by: TexasJew at January 01, 2010 12:35 AM (dcKUM)

Starting? Yeah it is actually - unfortunately
Posted by: chemjeff at January 01, 2010 12:39 AM (Gk/wA)
OK I am eating my way through the kitchen now. Great, 2010 is starting with me being the human vacuum cleaner, whatÂ’s that about?
Honestly, my divorce didnÂ’t help the finances either, but that was 7 years ago. He still works for the large software company, and lives in a multi million dollar home on a lake. But, hey, IÂ’m only slightly bitter that he ended up with more then me despite us living in a community property state. Lawyers are sometimes helpful and sometimes not. LetÂ’s just say mine wasnÂ’t.

No, not a programmer unfortunately. Boeing is located in Renton, not Redmond Jay. And thankfully I no longer own stock in the company I worked for, havenÂ’t in years.

Happy New Year TexasJew!!! Even though I’m not quite sure what “politely drunk” is. Didn’t we pass that around 3pm?
Posted by: ParanoidGirlInSeattle at January 01, 2010 12:45 AM (RZ8pf)
The thing I like about listening to the police scanner is that no matter how effed up you think your life is, it proves to you over and over again that there are people out there who have way more effed up lives then you.
Posted by: ParanoidGirlInSeattle at January 01, 2010 12:46 AM (RZ8pf)
And being a programmer isn't that great either, sometimes! From using the product, I'm sure that's true at the company in Redmond! At least they pay, it seems.

I know Jay, just giving you a hard time. I donÂ’t think they pay as much as they used to. And it isnÂ’t true actually that I havenÂ’t worked in 10 years; IÂ’ve had several contract gigs. But they dried up a year ago in the massive lay-off cost cutting.

IÂ’m starting in on the candy, I guess IÂ’d better go to bed before I begin chewing up the furniture or something.
Happy New Year to my favorite people in the universe who keep me sane when the world is going to hell in a hand basket around us.
And thanks Rum, for helping me tonight, I really needed it and you were there for me. Hugs!!!

nevertheless, there's the intangible cost of experience

Don't mix champagne and beer. My advice is always too late, and free.

Good Morning Morons and Happy New Year!
No, I donÂ’t have any scotch left. ThatÂ’s because I never had any scotch to begin with. I do have bourbon left even though I drank 20 shots and 7 beers last night.
The worst part about it is my phone shows I called 4 different people just before midnight all over the country and I have no freakin idea what I talked about andÂ…
