Congratulations Obama - You've Made Gas More Expensive Than It was in 1979
In real dollars no less. So that's one campaign promise kept.
Next step: A wind and Algaehol-based economy that will make European Greens weep with sustainable tears of joy.
Meanwhile Jimmy Carter breathes a huge sigh of relief.
The Adam Carolla-Dennis Prager Show
So two weeks ago I went to the joint shows that Adam and Dennis did together in Redondo Beach and had a very entertaining evening. I've been a fan of both for a while so it was like a custom-made show for me. They're a very well matched pair and the combination was a great mix of the profound, the stupid, and the funny.
Among the topics discussed was whether an atheist like Adam could go to heaven (yes - but only to Jew-heaven according to Dennis), why it's better to outsource your kids' theological questions to the Guatemalan nanny, how much pets cost including the cost of having your turtle's penis removed (A: $1800 in Santa Monica), and how radio is one of the few professions that appears laughably easy to do to other people when you get good at it .
Unfortunately I just flew in for the evening and had to leave the next morning so I had no time to socialize with any of the SoCal sub-morons. 
I was there at the elegant home, and indeed, people spoke all night about the sharp contrast between the fun-loving guy who made us all laugh and the portrait painted by the left of an angry man who hated the left. I talked to leftists who said he had argued politics with them, passionately, and then would hug them afterwards.And it wasn't just friends. I talked to someone last night who said that he would work with people who talked about how they hated Breitbart. When this person told Andrew about these people, he would say: "Invite them to dinner!" And Andrew would go out and eat with the haters. And the haters would inevitably say, afterwards: "I wanted to hate him. I came prepared to hate him. But he's a heck of a charming, funny guy."
One of the people speaking at the reception talked about the way Andrew would often end a phone call. He would be talking on and on, and when it was time to go, he would say, suddenly: "Okay, bye!" Boom. And he'd be gone.And whoever it was who pointed that out (I can't remember who it was), they made the point that he died the same way.
Okay, bye!
And he was gone.
Diplomacy Now Threatening Airline Security
International airline security is only as strong as its weakest link. And that link seems to be the Beirut's Rafic Hariri International Airport which is now controlled by Hezbollah.
Hezbollah's aborted putsch in Beirut in 2008 involved, among other things, control over the lucrative airport. One of former Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice's more short-sighted compromises was to agree to the Doha Accords which empowered Hezbollah in Lebanon's domestic scene in exchange for quiet. Along the way, Hezbollah regained sway over airport operations, even if its members wear Lebanon Army Uniforms when at the facility. It should give every American chills that many of the airport workers handling Lufthansa, Air France, and other flights which transfer luggage to the United States swear fealty to Hezbollah Secretary-General Hassan Nasrallah.Alas, Beirut is no longer alone. Turkish Air, a member of the Star Alliance and a partner to United Airlines and USAir, has initiated service to Mogadishu, Somalia. Bags checked in Mogadishu can now find their way to New York, Washington, and Los Angeles among other destinations.
The Lockerbie bombing occurred when Libyan agents smuggled a bomb onto a Pan Am feeder flight in Malta. The Malta leak may be plugged, but do American security officials truly believe the same is true in either Beirut or Mogadishu?
But no one wants to say anything lest they upset the 'fragile peace' in the middle east. And so the TSA keeps patting down little old ladies and confiscating your shampoo to maintain the security theater.
US Sharia Watch: MI Judge Judge Pressures Ex-Husband to Give Ex-Wife an Islamic Divorce; Court of Appeals Reverses
My view, for the reasons I mentioned as to the Jewish religious divorces, is that the trial court in this case was wrong and the court of appeals was right: Given the Establishment Clause, it should be no business of a secular court to try to pressure someone into performing a religious act.
LGF Now Embracing Louis Farrakhan
It's come to this.
"He also has a strong message of responsibility and self-reliance for young African Americans, and that is why [critical race theory proponent Professor Derrick] Bell described him as a hero."
"Farrakhan does have a positive, empowering component to his message."
Lizardoidia has always been at peace with East Farrakhan.
Okay I think most of us have got the first two rules of Fight Club down but do you know the other six rules?
It's been a month since Winston Kemp was struck by lightning, but the pattern of the electrical discharge is still visible on his skin. This is a Lichtenberg figure - the branching pattern made by electricity. Kemp didn't see a doctor at the time, but he feels fine, although he thinks that his skin will keep this awesome scar.
Cool story bro.
The Ultimate Sesame Street Quiz
How well do you really know your S. Street?
This Sesame Street quiz at PBS has 48 questions, which should be easy for those who grew up watching Sesame Street. I, however, was lucky to score 40%. When the results come up, you'll be able to watch clips that explain answers to many of the questions.
Modern Love: Man Breaks Penis on First Date
Ouch. But then there's this which may give you a hint as to what went down:
Somehow the conversation turns to Margaret Thatcher. Somehow Margaret Thatcher becomes a recurring topic. Somehow Margaret Thatcher becomes our go-to sexual depressant. Somehow Margaret Thatcher ends up sitting naked on a suburban fence, legs swinging and twirling a top hat. Occasionally Reagan makes an appearance, too.
The Yahoo AoSHQ group. You know the way.

Obama loses as voters become part of the $100 Gas Tank Demographic.
Truck owners already pay over $100.
4 door sedans have 20 gallon tanks, an $4.50 gas will convert them to the GOP.

I really hope re-tweeting isn't a problem, that's about all I've been doing.
Couple of Twitter questions just in case you have answers.
1) My kindle lets me "quote" a tweet as part of a re-tweet but I'm not finding that on either IE or Firefox. Am I just missing it?
2) People I don't know are following me and I feel sorry for them because they're going to be bored to tears. It looks like at least a couple are people I re-tweeted, is it okay if I don't follow them back?

It turns out you can't cancel it if it is fucking free.
I've got the "free" HBO plus other stuff package from signing up for Dish Network a couple months ago. I'm planning on waiting until the day before the freebie runs out and then calling them to cancel and telling them that I won't be paying a dime to them. And why.

Like most cities, it's seen better days. Most of the suburbs to the South and East are nice. However, the North-West is having troubles with expanding blight. We have a nice little dope war going on between to black criminal street gangs: most of the homicides and shootings are of misunderstood minority yoots.
As far as politics is concerned, the Democrats are pretty firmly in control and most people think the donks are for the "little guy." That's why Dayton is no longer a manufacturing town.
Are you the short-timer getting ready to leave the military?

When I signed up for Verizon Fios they offered me free HBO for a year, I said I didn't want it. The lady was like but its free, I said give me a multi-room DVR instead for free, and she did. Moral of the story when you order Cable/Dish/Fios call them, you can talk them into a deal.

Yup, didn't see you when I scanned the thread. Got a question for you: Dayton, how is it? Looking at possible job opening there.
Posted by: Alex
When I grew up in Dayton in the 60's, it was still a pretty nice medium sized city.
Since then it has gone downhill in a pretty big way. Most of the GM plants are gone, NCR is gone, most of the major manufacturing is gone, the quality of life and standard of living has probably declined. Whenever I go back there (rarely now) it is just pretty depressing.
The major employer in the area is now probably the Air Force (Wright-Patterson AFB). There are towns around the city that might not be too bad, but my cousin who just retired as a Dayton cop (required to live in the city because of residency rules) couldn't wait to get out of the city and moved to a house in Bellbrook (southeast of Dayton).
I grew up in Dayton and I wouldn't move back there unless it was a really great job and allowed me to live in one of the better suburbs (usually to the east or south of the city).

If you're going to be at/near the base (Wright Pat), then Beavercreek is a great choice - some really nice neighborhoods and schools.
I'm in Centerville (south) - basically bedroom community for Dayton and (to some extent) Cincinnati. If you're looking in this area, that's a good choice, as would be Springboro (both have excellent schools, good home values).

Ah...the great debate. I vacillate between thinking that liberals are simply stupid, but the herd mentality suggests an epidemic of some brain-wasting disease.
Or...maybe they were all dropped on their heads as children.

Speaking (sort of) of seen on Fox, that reminds me that it was on at the local DQ and th chyron(?) was talking about a bombing somewhere. They called the bomber a "homicide bomber" instead of the traditional "suicide bomber". I hope that name sticks because it's much more accurate.

You can't get banned from twitter. Trust me, there is almost nothing you can say or do that will get you banned. Credible death threats and child porn are the only things I can think of. Others can block you, and you can go to "twitter jail" if you tweet too much in a short period of time. But you will be able to tweet again in about an hour.
As for etiquette, there are a lot of different ways it is used. Don't expect the big names (including Ace) to answer you back. They get so many mentions that you get lost in the noise. But the mere mortals will generally strike up a conversation. It isn't a problem chatting back and forth with a follower, since most folks don't see it, unless they follow both of you.
DMs are generally ok too, unless someone says something in their profile about them. You have to be mutually following to DM though.

My take on it is that it leads to antiwhite hate crimes. And antiwhite hate crimes are bad. (Shocking and controversial!)
That kid who was doused with petrol and set afire last week, in Kansas City? The teachers at his school may as well have lit the match.
The fall of Detroit, too, can be laid at the door of antiwhite racists. There were no "riots" in 1968. It was a pogrom. Read that again. The "riot" in Detroit, which Romney's dad failed to put out in spectacular fashion - it. Was. A. Pogrom. And it worked.
This needs to be spread around.
I don't care if it's viewed as extremist. Bell, Cone, and the rest of the "Afrocentrists" are spreading racism against whites; racism against whites kills and expels whites; and the loss of whites from a city ALSO HURTS BLACKS.
Posted by: Boulder Toilet Hobo at March 13, 2012 07:40 PM (QTHTd)
He does excoriate black men for being such abysmal fathers and black women for having so many children out of wedlock and by so many different men. He also tells them to quit blaming white people for their problems now.
I prefer the honesty of his outright hatred to the way Sharpton and Jackson hide theirs and try and act self righteous about crap.

About the fibro, yeah, apparently a lot of these drugs were developed to treat epilepsy and turned out to be total duds, but then they ended up being terrific for other things, like migraines and fibro.
As for .... things, thanks for asking! It was more of a general question than a time-sensitive one, right now i've got an exam Friday, then spring break, but if anything happens in the following weeks i will let you (and everyone else*) know, thank you for your advice!
* That old joke about the man who goes to confession and tells the priest, "Father, I'm 80 years old, and I'm having a hot and steamy affair with my gorgeous 24 year old blonde secretary, and on top of that, I've become even more passionate behind her back with her beautiful brunette 18 year old sister."
The priest says, "when was your last confession, my son?" and he replies, "Oh, this is my first one."
"Your first one?? How come?"
"Well, Father, I'm Jewish."
"Jewish?! Then why are you telling me?"
"Oh, I'm telling everyone!"

From the response he got when he asked if she was twilight fan and she said yes before realizing she had signed that on her death threat email and how things have gone downhill from there I would say she has quit or been fired by now. Flipping out in a lunchroom full of witnesses isn't the most stable looking thing she could have done.
Cheboy probably has been spoken to about talking to sos by now as well, which would explain why he is reluctant to come near him. At this point he has probably figured out that he is no longer shielded by his supervisor and his new one probably would like to see him go as well.
I would say that Heckle and Jeckle were friends of either cheboy or twilighttwit.
I think what drove them all overboard is that sos wouldn't back down and take the abuse. Seems to always drive leftards nuts when they go out of their way to try and make you miserable and you just keep on trucking.
One other thing, if sos or Wolverine are ever in the Eau Claire-Menomonie are of Northern Wisconsin let me know. I know a place that makes some really good prime rib on wednesdays and saturdays.

Hello,
This account was suspended for sending multiple unsolicited messages using the @reply and/or mention feature. These features are intended to make communication between people on Twitter easier. Twitter monitors the use of these features to make sure they are used as intended and not for abuse. Using either feature to post messages to a bunch of users in an unsolicited or egregious manner is considered an abuse of its use, which results in account suspension. As this appears to be a repeat violation, this account will not be restored.
Thanks,
Twitter Trust & Safety

Go buy a medicine ball. Look some workouts up on YouTube and do two 20-30 minute workouts a week that make you want to die. In between them, do something that shocks your body--weird shit like yoga one week, running the next, free weights the next, etc...
I've found that mixing things up and keeping your body guessing helps you lose weight.
No sets. No breaks in between exercises. Just go for an average of 30 minutes non-stop--one thing after another.

You want to talk about being humbled. I hit 40 last year, but in my mind still think I'm 25.

Yep. She's been doing the monitored diet faithfully, walking during her lunch hour, and on weekends we go on multi-mile hikes with several hundred feet of elevation change. When she started, it was shorter hikes and she was dragging through 'em; now, she scampers up the hills like she left a 56-pound backpack at the bottom. My beer gut and I are starting to have trouble keeping up.

Believe me, she's getting daily feedback about how well things are going -- and not just from me. She went in to pick up food tonight and bumped into an older guy she'd started with those many months ago -- who said he didn't initially recognize her. [Mind you, that's because there are just *so* many women over six feet running around....LOL] I'm just glad she went the medically-monitored route....her before and after daily medications have gone through about 20 changes. And she's not finished, yet.

The Detroit Public School System had a competent black superintendent a few years ago. When she began delving into the system's accounting and spending habits, she ended up being forced to resign. I can't remember her name but she was hired from out of town specifically to clean up the school district and when she began to do so, she was basically canned.

The original goal was XXX pounds, and a drastic reduction in YYY (a particularly exasperating medication). She was getting closer to that, and revised it as she saw how things were proceeding, and as of last week, she is well-past XXX and isn't using YYY any more (how's THAT for a drastic reduction!). So to some degree we're in "safety zone / bonus"-land already. But what sweet, sweet bonuses there are.....

This program has defined phases -- the current phase is entirely synthetic prepackaged meals, and the next phase incorporates actual vegetables and fruits. It is well understood that there's not an "off the leash" sort of thing -- but the prospect of actual identifiable foodstuffs makes the next phase much more enticing than the current one.

this line of reasoning always cracked me up.
old film of young wimmenz /= young film of old wimminz.
When I was in high school a teacher showed the Hunchback. He asked what we thought and I told him that I thought Maureen O'Hara was hot. He made some comment about her age and I told him she looked pretty damn good then. We traded a couple more comments and then I told him, "I'm 17, you look like you're 40, do I really have to explain this to you?"
I spent the next hour at the principal's office. My Dad just laughed.

I've had corned beef and cabbage, and the cabbage part left me going, "meh". Come to think of it, the corned beef wasn't all that great, either....
I'm really thinking maybe smoked brisket with BBQ sauce, or roast brisket with horseradish.

The term corned comes not from the vegetable corn, but from the English term corn, meaning any small particle, such as the coarse-grained salt which was used for curing.
In your market, you'll most likely find the newer style of corned beef, a rosy red color, vacuum-sealed in a bath of brine. Old-fashioned corned beef is more grayish-pink in color and more salty.
Luckily, most of today's corned beef is processed without nitrates (saltpeter), which used to be used as a preservative against botulism and to maintain the bright red color. Some studies have shown nitrates to be a cancer-causing agent, so most foods are moving away from this preserving method.
From http://homecooking.about.com/od/beef/a/cornedbeef.htm -- who are much more helpful right now than the "internet people" delusions I have at this time of night.

This is entirely driven by greed. It's not that I can't cook, or that I couldn't come up with a few interesting things to do with just about anything at a meat counter......it's that there are very cheap corned briskets for St. Pat's, and I'm looking to take advantage of that.
Hell, I convection-roast a mean tri-tip with a chili/garlic/mustard/pepper rub mixed to a paste with Olive oil and brushed on. But those are currently about $8/pound and can be 3 pounds -- and are much more than one guy can eat, even with leftovers.

"Well I assume that since they have Republican Parties they get a say. "
But no say in the general election? Doesn't seem right to me. U.S. territories with no electoral votes and no obligation pay to federal Income taxes should have no say in who gets what.
Just my opinion.
Again, I denounce myself for whatever reason you wish to apply.

Now I get it, sorry. Rinse the meat to get all the 'cure' off of it--might be worthwhile to soak/rinse a couple of times to desalinate it--then do your smoke/roast on it. HTH.

This is kind of what I'm thinking. "De-corning" a cheap corned beef, then preparing it in a tasty way. I didn't previously know that I'd have to do anything to affirmatively de-corn it, but the salt-cure and injected language is sounding like I'd better. Hmmmm....
Alternatively, they're running a special on Irish beer.....maybe that'd be the better investment.
