Over-nite Opun Thred

Happy H-Day all.

Redneck Landscaping

Here Steve McGranahan who calls himself the World's Strongest Redneck shows how he trims his hedges using his lawnmower on a stick. Probably not recommended for those with weak arms or a need for all 10 fingers.

And lest you think Steve is a one trick pony, he's also developed his own style of martial arts. But do not confuse him with the original Redneck Ninja.
(thanks to CDR M) Gay Approval Now An Academic Requirement?
Well one student at Augusta State University has been threatened with expulsion unless she renounces her views on homosexuals and a professor teaching a course of Catholicism at the University of Illinois was fired for daring to criticize homosexuality. Note that in both of these cases the victims are being punished for merely expressing their views and not for any actions.

Meanwhile today a judge ruled that a graduate student in counseling at Eastern Michigan University could be expelled for refusing to see gay patients. This case is little murkier since it's unclear if she refused to counsel gay patients that were assigned to her as part of her education or if she merely stated that she wouldn't do so after graduating. If it's the latter, then this is a serious attack on freedom of thought. Schools are now imposing an ideological view as a requirement for graduation. Since almost all Christians (and Muslims) view homosexuality as a sin, this new standard amounts to a de facto (anti-)religious test to graduate.

Charlie Rangel Introduces Another Mandatory Service Bill
Well the Democrats sure do seem to love the DraftNational Service these days. And this bill would require two years of national service (either in the military or in a civilian corps) for every American, male and female, between 18 and 42 years of age. And the president gets to decide who goes into the corps and what they do. What could possibly go wrong?

6 Words That Need to Be Banned from the English Language
Well according to Dan O'Brian. They are: moist, jowls, bulbous, yolk, slurp, pulp.

The Refudiation of the Palin Haters
There was a kerfuffle last week when Sarah Palin used the word 'refudiate' on Fox and later in a tweet. Critics immediately jumped on this as just more proof that she's teh stupid since she used a word that doesn't exist. Oh the horror!! Of course readers of the ONT know that I'm very much a descriptivist when it comes to English. My view is that if you make up a word and its meaning is pretty much obvious to English speakers, well then it's an English word now MFers.

Anyways it turns out that Palin didn't make up refudiate. It was used in a paper as far back as 1925 and Sen. DeWine also used it as recently as 2006. So Palin 1, critics 0. But of course you'll never hear a hint of this in the MFM. Or any criticism of Obama's own made up word, 'wee-wee'd up'.

The Great Bacon Odyssey: Is Bacon Ice Cream Worth the Effort?
Well Matt Blum tried it and liked it. But added the caveat that he likely wouldn't try it again. My usual theory of food is that if you like A and B, you'll probably like A and B mixed together. But this may be an exception.

Remembering the Mold-O-Rama Machines
They're practically extinct these days but I have very strong memories as a kid of convincing my parents to buy a gorilla mold at a visit to the zoo. And yes the pungent chemical smell of the hot plastic is still embedded in my brain some place. There are still a few machines left and a single repairman who keeps them going.

Lost Kafka Writings Resurface, Tied Up in Court
When he died in 1924 he ordered all his unpublished writings to be burned, but how they ended up in an Israeli safe deposit box over seventy years later is practically a Kafkaesque story in itself.

25 I loved when during the beginning of the Iraq War in 2003 the Demoncrats were screaming about the draft and how Bush was going to draft everyone into the military.

And who was it that introduced the bill? Cholly Rangel himself. Last I checked he had a big fat D after his name. I don't mind a draft - as long as every single leftist and D politician's kid is required to serve first. On the front lines.

38 Spam gets first.....the apocalypse is nigh. Brad Pitt starring in WWZ was probably inevitable once he won the bidding war. With any luck they won't use that horrid script that was leaked on-line last year. Yeah, right. Even if they re-do the script again, beware of any film where the star is also the producer. An almost sure path to world-class suckitude. Well, that and letting Akiva Goldsman anywhere near your film.

Re: the mandatory service bill.  If that bullshit becomes law (presumably there is a very very low probability, but these days who knows??), it's emmigration time.  Fuck that.  The US is rapidly becoming the least free nation in the Western Hemisphere.  And you can bet your ass the welfare layabouts will be exempt from it, or else their service will be to look after their welfare brats for once, and/or to use their fat asses to hold down their couches.

I'm a big supporter of a military draft in time of need.  But 2 years indentured servitude to the state, on top of already confiscatory taxes, goes too far.

She said our main math instructor hadn't made the schedule before he left for vacation. I told her that I had seen the schedule myself, so I knew he had. I said that since the schedule was made last spring, it would be understandable if it had been misplaced (trying to let my boss save face for losing it.) By the way, the assistant hates my guts.

92 "32 I don't mind a draft - as long as every single leftist and D politician's kid is required to serve first. On the front lines. The last time we had a draft they were always the very first to get deferments, if they didn't just run to Canada. This time would be no different." Sure it would suck for Canada, but the leftoids running off to Canada would be bad for the US how, exactly ?

The improv video does my heart good, and restores some of my faith in my fellow Americans.  Clearly all the passengers on that subway car were supporters of Imperial law and order.  When the troops showed up to arrest the rebel scum, all of them laughed with happiness.  As the boys in white dragged the insurrectionist away to her certain doom, the crowd was all smiles.  Even the little children delighted to see justice done.

My wife is upstairs watching one of those ghost reality programs again.  I cannot stand to be in the same room when she watches that crap.  That's generally what brings me to AOS.  The programs are, for some reason I can't fathom,  quite popular.  They are on 2 or 3 channels now including the Sci-Fi channel.  That channel has gone to crap.  I am an afficianado of sci-fi but haven't seen anything worth watching on that clinker for years now.  They even had big time wrestling on there.  WTF does wrestling have to do with science fiction?

On another note, I have an uber geek friend.  He is seriously retarded in his social skills. A few years ago he was storing some stuff in a Public Storage facility for $85 a month.  I helped him bring it to my warehouse where I kept it at no charge.  There have been multiple 20 mile trips using my truck and back, the last couple of which, hoping he would take a hint, I stopped to get gas.  So tonight, after stopping for gas, I mentioned with a little sarcasm in my voice, "Hey Kev, I made this drive what 4 or 5 times?  Do you think you could throw in $20 for gas?" He replied, "You want $20 for gas?"  Me, "Yea uh!"  The guy is clueless but we go back to kindergarden together.  What are you going to do?

OK, let me straighten the supper vs dinner thing for you platypus fellators:

Breakfast is breakfast.

Lunch is the mid-day meal.  "Dinner" can apply if the main meal is eaten mid-day, such as a 2pm Thanksgiving Dinner.

The evening meal is supper, except in a more formal setting or going to a resturant (dinner party, going out to dinner).  If a less formal family meal, it's supper.

And anyone who says different is wrong.  And possibly gay.

247 Here's a novel defense:

The jury in the trial of the 57-year-old man, who has denied fondling the boy, performing oral sex on him and having the boy touch his penis, is likely to retire today.

The man is facing two charges of indecent assault and one of sexual violation by unlawful sexual connection.

Giving evidence yesterday, the man denied any of the sexual activity described by the boy took place and said text messages he sent the boy, taken out of context, had been read the wrong way.

One text, suggesting the boy could "take a picture of woody" while he was home alone, was a mistake caused by his use of predictive text to write the message.

He said "woody" was a term he and his son used to talk about Woodstock beverage. He said the boy used the term to describe an erection, but he did not use the word in that sense. The man said he used predictive text and "woody" had appeared in a text when he meant "face".

"This word had obviously come up and had not been seen by me," he said.

When asked by Judge Raoul Neave what he meant by a text "I get excited thinking about you", which came after several texts between the pair after 1am on September 29, the man said he was unable to explain.

"I have no idea. I had woken up out of a deep sleep."

251 What in the world could you be possibly getting at War?

That there's no reason for him to be single when Ryan Fitzpatrick is in the same town.



Ryan Fitzpatrick: Carolina boy

Age: 27
Hometown: Lake Toxaway, N.C.
Political party: Democratic
Relationship status: Single


If youÂ’re looking for Ryan Fitzpatrick, heÂ’s likely one of the attractive young men playing Ultimate Frisbee on the National Mall or the water skier zooming around the North Carolina lake on which he grew up.

These are two of his favorite pastimes. He never tires of playing a pickup game of Ultimate with friends, and as for waterskiing, “I always have to get a trip in when I visit home,” he says.

FitzpatrickÂ’s career in politics began while he was painting houses and working at a bar.

He had just graduated from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill and slapped together odd jobs while, in his free time, volunteering on Rep. Heath ShulerÂ’s (D-N.C.) first congressional campaign in 2006. It was a bonding experience.

“ really early on, when everything was still informal,” Fitzpatrick says of the campaign. “It was like a family, where you make do with what you have.”

When his boss won the election, Fitzpatrick landed a job in ShulerÂ’s Washington office.

He describes himself as courteous and thoughtful and is also a music lover. He likes playing the part of the cosmopolitan, getting to know the city beyond Capitol Hill through a few of his favorite things: the arts, restaurants and karaoke. He enjoys reading, writing, tutoring his 9-year-old mentee and “learning about the problems the city faces — just like any other city,” he says.

Fitzpatrick is single and acknowledges that he doesn’t do too much to stay beautiful. A gym buddy keeps him motivated to exercise, and he “tries not to overdo it on the ice cream,” although he admits that’s easier said than done. He attributes his looks mostly to good genes, he says.

“Thanks, Mom and Dad,” Fitzpatrick says.

You're not really wrong but

Breakfast is Break fast and hence the morning meal

Lunch is Luncheon or a light midday meal

If the midday meal is the big meal of the day as it used to be when men labored in the fields--they didn't wait for their big meal at night--it is dinner.

Dinner is the big meal of the day

Supper is eaten as an evening meal if dinner was eaten at midday. If lunch was eaten at midday then the largest meal is dinner--the evening meal.

Suppers are lighter than dinners.

The phase, "A light supper" or "A simple supper" exists. "A light dinner" does not.

286 Interesting debate about a painter who thinks he found some long-lost Ansel Adams negatives.
Posted by: Miss'80sBaby at July 28, 2010 09:55 PM

I'm not buying it.

When I was a yoot, I was given instruction in photography by my godfather, a WWII combat photog who came home to teach his craft at a world-famous "college of design." One of those he considered a "great" was a guy called Will Connell, who did industrial photography that was, in its own way, equal to Adams's nature work.

It was his contention that there were dozens of photographers who could do what Adams did in a technical sense. The difference was that each one "saw" the resulting image in his or her own way. The necessary skills were known, and taught to pro photographers back in the days when darkroom work was an integral part of the image-making process.

I used to know some of the tricks, from a particular way of developing B&W negatives to creative dodging and burning of select areas when making prints.

The negatives this guy claims came from Adams were obviously the work of a good photographer. We would have to see how Adams would have printed them to know if they really were his. Conversely, I'm told some Adams negatives result in pretty dull prints if the work is done by someone lacking his darkroom skills.

This is like finding a "lost trove" of any artist's work. Unlikely and, in this case, not provable.

We talked about how ignorant the electorate was, he being the pessimist. He had a study hall coming up and told me to just watch. He asked each student to name one of their Senators. Again, MA in the 90s. Only one out of 20 could. And this precocious girl guessed Tim for the first name...

Big time.  Ted Kennedy was the most well known Senator in the US arguably, MA or otherwise.  Kerry, even at the time was no slouch.

It really is pathetic.  Political junkies, history buffs, and current event followers like us take our knowledge for granted.

Most people, even most that vote, are completely clueless. 

I talked to a guy the other day, who is pretty informed, about possible GOP candidates in 12.  I mentioned my mancrush Paul Ryan.  He had never heard of him.  I'm guessing 95% of the country, at least, haven't either.

Puts it all in perspective I spose.

Its part of the reason the media narrative works so well.

I was talking about the oil spill with a relative of mine, who isn't political, and he said something about BP being connected to Bush.

Part of it, depending on where you live, is venue. That's probably the most expensive part. Open bar is the second most expensive part. My cousin and his wife were trying to keep there's around $10-15k and ended up spending around $20k due to my aunt adding 20 extra guests to the list.

If you had it in the first place you wouldn't have had the question.  Like the cut of your jib though generally.

Yea, I asked this morning on the Headline Thread what the hell was wrong with the GOP in ColoradoÂ…was it some sort of Tom Tancredo vs. whoever blood letting or what.

 

I think Norton can win. Buck, however, has proven to have foot in mouth disease. And we really need Colorado.

I've been back and forth for awhile but I'm leaning Buck at this point.  He can win and I trust him more from a conservative perspective.

I'd be happy with either though.

I remember my first try at that too. Holy hell! I ended up in the hospital having lost 4 teeth, needing nearly 25 stitches on my tongue, dislocating my jaw, and nearly asphyxiating from the fumes.

Now when I'm in the mood for "giving" I turn to Indian actors.

598 Coming late to the table, I feel compelled to point out that one does, indeed, sup.  Originally it meant to eat liquid or semi-liquid food -- like soup -- in spoonfuls or sips.  And over time, it came to mean eating the evening meal, probably because the main meal came at midday and the evening meal was more likely to be soup, stew or porridge, on which one would sup.

Lunch, on the other hand, used to mean strictly luncheon -- a formal meal for entertaining.  Seems that over the years, the meanings have muddled in the USA: lunch is the informal, ordinary midday meal, a luncheon is still a formal entertainment, and dinner is only the midday meal in some regional dialects.

791 So I've been busy.  I decided to make some t-shirts for my band and stuff. I got a CafePress "shop". I decided to name the shop "Boogie Forward."  I have to tweak the Ban'd tees.  The pink is the wrong color of pink. It looks good on the computer, but I knew I'd have to tweak it since printing colors are additive.

Also, I've been reading the heck out of other blogs (I always check here most often). I like Breitbart's new "Big Peace" site. I also tryto take a scan of Asian news sites and others.

A site called "TheOilDrum" has been covering the BP spill pretty well.
They're a "peak oil" site, so they are a bit off on the problem, IMO.
(Question for "peak oil" and "fossil fuel" types:

If I were going to guess, I'd say on the gas giants, their higher gravity is the only thing that keeps it from evaporating into space.  We might have had large amounts here, but the would have lifted out of the atmosphere long ago.  I think (could be wrong here) that most of what we have is a part of the process that formed oil, not an original thing like on the giants.

799 There is a British company called Flymo which makes lawnmowers that are basically miniature hovercraft. I have a friend who works at the Oxford University medical center, wrangling MRI machine data. He told me that one day, a man was brought in who'd tried to use a Flymo as a hedge trimmer. His arm had got sucked into it and shredded. The best part of the story was the man brought in a few hours later. He'd driven past the first man's house, saw him trimming the hedge with his Flymo, and thought "What a great idea!" So when he got home, he got out his Flymo, and shredded his arm.

It was rhetorical, but I'd say you're on to something. My point in the rhetorical question was that the "peak oil" folks don't seem to understand hydrocarbons.

807 Okay, Breitbart's sites need work. I'll give you that. But he got the suckers UP and RUNNING.  I'm sure he'll refine 'em over time.

My complaints about the "Big" sites: Too many folks allowed to post to the site.  It's like "Townhall" or worse.  Better to have a few stars on the front page and have a section for second and third-tier writers.  Or just cut it down a bit.  It's a firehose.

Also, comments are overloaded.  It helps to require signing up to comment, but the signup javascript was buggy and I had to give up my "K~Bob" moniker because after the glitch, I had to re-signup, and "K~Bob" was still unavailable (from the first time).

Oh, it's not like any of them choose to post there.  Breitbart chooses what he wants on their blog and pays them for what he copies.  They have an agreement to that effect.

PPIC released a poll for the CA Senate.

Fiorina 34

Boxer 39

Undecided 21

Yeah, PPP sure is hitting it on the head, Boxer is just SURGING here.

Boxer is about as safe as any incumbant democrat to poll below 45% in both Field and PPIC just 3 months before reelection in one of the most liberal states in the country.

BTW, an overlooked bonus for Californians- Field pegged generic vote preferrence in CA at 50D 32R in January...its now 44D 41R. Republicans have obliterated the Democrats' overwhelming advantage, yet NO pollsters are brave enough to reflect this...

Posted by: CAC at July 29, 2010 12:33 AM (lV4Fs)

848 The only polls that are even halfway believable or from Hitler Ras for CA 7/14

The latest Rasmussen Reports telephone survey of Likely Voters in the state finds Boxer with 49% support versus FiorinaÂ’s 42%. Four percent (4%) favor another candidate in the race, and five percent (5%) are undecided.

Posted by: Vic at July 29, 2010 01:21 AM (/jbAw)

849 Boxer is incredibly vulnerable.  Much more vulnerable at this point than Coakley was.  She's incumbent and under 50%.  Even ignoring the fact she's a democrat Senator in Cali, that makes her extremely vulnerable.

It was always going to be an uphill battle, but we're doing well for ourselves.  This one will be swaying many votes right up to the end.

Posted by: Legendary Film Star Rick Moranis at July 29, 2010 01:38 AM (dUOK+)

850 A lot of people who Boxer needs, were once Boxer supporters and have moved to Fiorina.  What can she do at this point to bring them back?  Obviously harsh attacks... but again, these people already went from voting for Boxer to rejecting her now.  That's not going to translate into much positive momentum for Boxer.

Fiorina simply needs to convince more Boxer voters to reject her nastiness, spending, shilling, etc.  I think that's a more advantageous position to be in, and certainly doable for a few percentage points.  Undecideds will also break for Fiorina, of course.

It's a tough fight anyway.  this is normally a blue state.  But it's going to cost the dems a fortune to defend, and they very easily could lose.

He knows that the stupid bill has absolutely zero chance of being passed but he can tour Harlem and tell them all he submitted it so that whitey would have to do some community service.

He has a hearing with the ethics committee chairman(?) today at 13:00 and it is his last chance to strike a deal. Many of the other Democrats are ready to throw hm under the bus.

My feeling is "why should he get a deal"? Most of the stuff is not just unethical, it is illegal and he should not be immune from prosecution.

That is one draft card I WILL burn.

If I get drafted I will show up. I wouldn't shirk my duty because I hate Obama. Obama, like that burrito you ate last night, will pass. He won't always be president, but our country willl remain and if it requires conscription for defense, so be it.

That aside, this will never pass, it is a political stunt as it always is, even the army has said they oppose this 100%.

also, something that rangel leaves out is that our government can't afford a conscription army. Where would we get the money to pay for another 1-2 million soldiers, their healthcare for life, benefits, housing, equipment, etc.

 

We couldn't have a conscription army if we wanted to at this point

862 I really, really want the twofer this election, both Pelosi and Reid.

EE's position was that she was "retooling"the campaign and implementing a new strategy with regard to the hostile press. They expected a dip in the polls while they were doing this, but expect to come back strong was they start implementing the new strategy.

Yes we all hope she is successful. In particular I hope the "hostile press" strategy works out. Republicans have been in dire need of something on that score for a long long time.

To date their strategy has been to try to kiss the press's ass and adopt no position that could be tarred as "extreme" which meant keep to the middle of the road RINO positions.

That strategy has been an absolute loser since 2006 and the MFM still hits them with "extreme" over every position.  They have to since that is the supplied commiecrat talking point.

863 "Survivor of Mont. bear attack says she played dead"
"I told myself, play dead," she said. "I went totally limp. As soon as I went limp, I could feel his jaws get loose and then he let me go."

She said the bear was silent.

"I felt like he was hunting me."


Is this common?  Do bears just attack like that?

866 Beck = "they want to change 4 words with an existing law"...."on the president's word they can go and take all internet records and seize them, plus this change would make the company or person bound by law not to discuss that the government has taken everything"  "They could take everything and I couldn't go on the air the next day and say the government has taken it".....the really scary thing he just said is they define "terrorist" so they can define the NRA as a "terrorist organization" and "scoop everyone up who has contributed to them".

Now he is saying they want to dismantle the electoral college which Beck called "the Rudy Guiliani strategy" of only going to states with big populations.  Last night levin explained all the reasons why the electoral college is necessary to make sure the little states are not irrelevant.

I call B.S. 

The bear was supposed to whisper, "A friend in need is a friend, indeed!"

Depends.  Some adolescent males will, or mothers with cubs nearby.  The silent thing isn't the norm though, esp with the males.  They'll be very aggressive just to show dominance.

869 That is a frightening story.  The little disturbing part is that it happened before at this campground and they sent the bear in question to a "bear research center" after it happened.

Sad, indeed.  I have always wondered, for soldiers in combat and at risk for abduction, why don't they have something akin to a chip implanted to identify their locale?

I don't know the details, but standard practice is to capture problem bears, tag them, then move them to a different location.  Second 'offense', is when they put them down.  I had an incident (actually two on the same night) with such a bear a number of years ago.  The ranger had been after him for two weeks at the time of my contact.  Thankfully, he wasn't particularly aggressive, and I had a gun in case he was.

873 "This Exists: Alvin Greene Unveils Bizarre Campaign Music Video (UPDATED)"Greene's website

The front page of the site shows a screenshot of the first frame in the video

It appears that the video, which was apparently removed over copyright issues, is not on greene's site?
Greene should clarify what he means by having "the punishment fit the crime"....I mean folks who have laws where they can cut off your hands if you steal also think the punishment fits the crime.
