It's Tough To Be Green These Days
Because the bloom is coming off the Global Warming Climate Change Uncertainty rose and the entire environmental movement in general:
A new Gallup poll reports that Americans are still broadly skeptical of the Green agenda, currently putting economic growth ahead of the environment by 49 percent to 41 percent. And moderates are increasingly joining conservatives in the opinion that economic growth should be a priority even if it incurs some environmental damage.
It turns out that Green policies are luxuries that people will indulge in during boom times but not so much in a prolonged recession. Even the young seem to be losing their enthusiasm for environmentalism - well other than as a status symbol signaling refined tastes:
[Jean] Twenge found that today's high school seniors and college freshmen make far less effort to help the environment than baby boomers did at that age. Compared with boomers and Generation X-ers, Gen Y-ers are the least willing to cut down on driving and electricity use. "There was a lot more questioning of materialism in the 1970s. Now it's just like, Let's all live like the Kardashians," she said. . .We do stuff not to save the planet as much as to look as if we're saving the planet. That means I need to spend a lot more on my food, clothing and appliances and let everyone know about it.
In fact it looks like we already passed Peak AGW concern a few years ago. But don't worry - there'll be a new world-wide environmental crisis coming along any second now.
And the usual suspects will have their usual solutions on how to save the world AND run your life.
Oh and don't forget that this Saturday evening will be Human Achievement Hour so get those naughty incandescent bulbs aglowin' and tires aburnin'.
Why is Newt Gingrich Still Called Speaker Gingrich
Newt Gingrich can be called many things: garrulous, grandiose, philandering. But one thing he should not be called is "Mr. Speaker." Gingrich ceased to be entitled to that title when he left the House on Jan. 3, 1999. But you would never know it from the obsequious way journalists have addressed him during the campaign, where "Mr. Speaker" and "Speaker Gingrich" have become standard.
This is one thing that has always irked me a little - former office-holders keeping their previous title for life. I don't mind the occasional honorific on special occasions but why should we be expected to refer to Barbara Boxer perpetually as Senator Boxer even when she's no longer a senator? It certainly wasn't this way for the original US office-holders:
As an exemplar of American unpretentiousness, look to John Quincy Adams. During his remarkable and distinguished career he was our ambassador to the Netherlands, Prussia, Russia, and the United Kingdom. He was a senator, secretary of state, and president. After he finished his presidency, he was elected to the House of Representatives, where he vigorously opposed slavery. Joseph Wheelan, author of Mr. Adams's Last Crusade, about Adams' last 17 years in the House-he died in the Capitol- says that during that entire time this man of many titles was known simply as "Mr. Adams."
Yes the Battle of Athens really happened in 1946 and represents one of the few times an armed insurrection was successful in the US.
The Mysterious Case of Air Force Major Jill Metzger
It's been almost six years since Air Force Major Jill Metzger disappeared from a shopping mall while deployed to Manas AB, Kyrgyzstan in September 2006. Metzger resurfaced a few days later, with an incredible tale of kidnapping, over-powering her abductors and racing almost 30 miles to freedom (the Air Force officer happens to be a champion marathon runner).
Yet shortly afterwards it became clear that there were big holes in her story and very likely the entire incident had been faked, possibly to cover up an abortion.
-- Kyrgyz authorities doubted her story from the start, and even interviewed a local abortion doctor who claimed he performed that procedure on Major Metzger during the time she was missing.
-- A source inside the Air Force Office of Special Investigations (AFOSI), which probed Metzger's disappearance, told Militarycoruption.com that the USAF personnel officer flunked at least two polygraphs after her escape. One exam, administered at her home station of Moody AFB, GA, showed clear signs of deception.
Yet despite this she was able to avoid any major repercussions and now her career appears to be on the upswing again:
The other reason is rooted in Major Metzger's own career. After being placed on the "temporarily retired" list for a couple of years, she returned to active duty in 2010, at Andrews AFB, MD. She's probably up for Lieutenant Colonel, and resolving the Kyrgyz matter would improve her prospects for promotion.
7 Scientific Reasons You'll Turn Out Just Like Your Parents
You're only as old as you feel, right? Well except that a lot of how you 'feel' is controlled by neurochemistry, hormones, and genes. And while you might fight the power and fight your parents and the establishment, you'll never beat your own biology:
As you get older, your brain becomes more and more unable to handle dopamine, which, as we've pointed out before, is a big factor in making us feel "the chills" when a new exciting piece of music comes on.Because nothing you hear will have that same effect on you as the fresh exciting sounds of your youth, it will become harder and harder to get fired up about new music. Your musical taste will therefore stagnate, regardless of how on top of the trends you were at 17. If you want to know what new music will sound like when you're 50, go spend an hour watching TV shows intended for toddlers. See how long you can tolerate it.
So, you'll get older and settle down and, inevitably, the ubiquitous Rumours album by Fleetwood Mac will mysteriously appear in your collection, like a Gideon Bible in a hotel. Just accept it.
Why Are There Gideon Bibles in Hotel Rooms
Gideons International got its start in 1898, when two traveling businessmen, John H. Nicholson and Samuel E. Hill, arrived at the crowded Central Hotel in Boscobel, Wisconsin, for the night. The two had never met, but there was only one double room left, so they decided to share it. The men got to talking and found they shared a common faith and had both toyed with the idea of creating an evangelical association for Christian businessmen....The Gideons don't go room to room themselves, slipping the books in nightstands like Bible elves. When a hotel opens, local Gideons members will present a Bible to the hotel's general manager in a small ceremony and then give enough books for each room and some extras to the housekeeping staff for distribution. In addition to hotel rooms, the Gideons also give Bibles to military bases, hospitals, nursing homes, prisons and to students on college campuses.
I can't think of Gideon bibles without thinking about a gag on Cheers where Sam was convinced that a bible was following him from hotel room to hotel room and that this had to be a message from God.

Finally made it home, finding my copy of ME3 waiting for me. I try to install it like a giddy little kid. The updater for EA's Origin service tells me I don't have an internet connection. Pretty cool that I can download the damn update without an internet connection.
It's the power of MY MIND.
Anyway, no clue what the problem is, so I'll have to call them tomorrow. I hate this online connection crap.

A. Yes, we can admit that the Heritage Foundation is fallible. Unlike, say Al Sharpton or Jesse Jackson.
B. I do not recall a swell of Republican support for the idea back when former Speaker now unindicted insider trader Pelosi was telling us the bill was full of wonder...just wait until you see it after passage.
Next up, they will blame all green energy catastrophes on gnomes living in our stomachs, because you-know-who is not accountable for anything. I hope Harry Truman is haunting the fuck out of the White House.

Depends on the state, apparently. I'm thinking half a billion leaves a mark, however, and you'll be tracked down.
I've never bought a lotto ticket, but even then, I'd figure a cash payout leaves you 40 percent if you're lucky.

Not a Husky rider, Tammy. Strictly Suzuki. Raced for about 9 years, not a scratch! Then in the last season, I tore a knee up, broke my right thumb (twice, on the same track about a month apart), and cracked one of my lower vertebra. Mortality became a reasonable concept.
A 650 sounds about right; there's no replacement for displacement!

I know nothing of this new retro husky.

I sold the "Widowmaker" to a vintage racer after it became apparent that I do not bounce as good as I used to, but got much good info and parts from www huskyclub.

Dance, psytrance, ambient, and other styles typically associated with psychedelics are my sirens of choice now. Even pop western, which didn't exist 20 years ago, is the bomb.

Me, I’m seeing potential for an album—The Freewheelin’ George Zimmerman—on which he covers some of his dad’s tunes, such as:
ItÂ’s Alright Ma (IÂ’m Only Bleeding)
Only a Pawn in Their Game
If Dogs Run Free
We Better Talk This Over
You AinÂ’t GoinÂ’ Nowhere
Man on the Street
Baby, Let Me Follow You Down
How about "I shot the Sheriff"

Quick aside a couple of years back one of Microsoft's wunderkind had his yacht in New Orleans for some event...Yacht is an understatement. this thing could have been classified as a corvette or a frigate in some navies. Anyhoo the chopper that lived on the boat needed some maintenance so they flew it our shop. I met the mechanic and helped him do what needed to be done. What a frigging dream job. He follows the yacht around the world making sure the aircraft is ready to go and fixes the minor stuff and arranges with local service providers for anything he cant handle by himself. I tried to stuff my fat ass into the baggage compartment for the ride back to the boat but they found me out. Fuckers.

Yeah, we'd gathered that liberalism had metastized to .the Tucson area, so we're looking at the Phoenix area. I'm a bit worried that AZ will succumb to the liberal infestation before I die, but we've got to move somewhere. Sounds silly right now, but if 40 years ago you'd told me CA would be liberal infested I'd have laughed.
I too doubt that CA will recover in my lifetime. Sad, really. I grew up here, moved after grad school, and lived all over this country and Europe before moving the earth to come back here to live out my days. So I hate to leave, but can't stay, either.

I asked her how she felt about the 49 black shootings in Chicago over the St. Patricks day weekend and she suggested that no one cares. I told her that people do care with the exception of the usual outrageously outraged. She agreed 100 percent. This shit is striking a nerve.

Father, must I go to work?
No, my lucky son.
We're living now on Easy Street,
on dough from Washington.
We've left it up to Uncle Sam,
so don't get exercised.
Nobody has to give a damn--
we've all been subsidized.
But if Sam treats us all so well,
and feeds us milk and honey,
please daddy, tell me what the hell
he's going to use for money?
Don't worry, bub, there's not a hitch
in this here noble plan--
He simply soaks the filthy rich
and helps the common man.
But Father, won't there come a time
when they run out of cash,
and we have left them not a dime
when things will go to smash?
My faith in you is shrinking, son
you nosy little brat!
You do too damn much thinking, son
to be a Democrat!

ya know I am really sick and tired of the social so-called "scientists" - they are wanna-be pretenders, who think that if you take Statistics 101 and present yourself as a haughty stuck-up snob with a Ph.D. and tweed jackets, then that gives you the right to call yourself a "scientist"
But only if you've got elbow patches on the tweed jacket.
I especially like liberals who accuse me of being anti-science, and/or ignorant of science. Would a list of my doctoral students influence their views?

So, speak up anyway. It's better than kissing their ass. If they call you racist then call them pussies or cowards. By not speaking up, you are giving in and surrendering. You don't have to start the conversation, but it they start it never be afraid to express your thoughts. The real racists want you to be afraid to speak up.

You won't change their mind, but you just need to stand your ground with your convictions. Like I said before, you don't need to start the conversation...just stand your ground if the conversation is started for you. The stress comes from you backing off fearing a confrontation. Not saying you are some scaredy-cat, but have you ever had that feeling that if you had just thought of saying one last thing you would have won the argument?

Well I did opine the caveat that if they bring it up first. Yeah, you bringing it up should be avoided. Unfortunately, popular culture these days tell white people that they are inferior to other races because of reverse racism. I just refuse to fall in line with unfunny talk show hosts, comedians and others who are the true cowards. You never want to think you are superior to others based on your race, but you also never want to think you are inferior to others based on your race. Be yourself, and stand up for yourself and your convictions if someone asks you about them.

But shes old and one of my faves and im a big dork, and hate to see this one stand useless so i am thinkin my retired broodmare might get a job workin for people again. shes kinda likin the idea. Shes a total attention slut. So i dunno might rain the russian princess to do mounted combat too. Shes 23 and combative so the old bat might really like it. Or she may dump my ass in the dirt with extreme prejudice, since she was trained as a prissy dressage horse.

It's not that your musical tastes will get like an old person when you get old, it's just that you will be more "set in your ways" and stick to the music you grew up with.
That's kind of a tautology, isn't it?
I think the article is a gross oversimplification. It may be true for people who consider music nothing more than a soundtrack for life, and who place more of an emphasis on novelty than on quality.
But a music lover never stops loving good music, and I still find it quite a thrill to hear something new that strikes my fancy.
And thanks again, you all, for making my day!

Up to the White Album, I listened to a lot of Beatles....but then my parents became concerned about reports of drug-use and wouldn't let me listen to their albums while not supervised -- so I switched over to a different band with a lead singer from San Diego -- The Doors.
One of my teachers in school played this really cool music he'd found during class. I asked what it was, and he said it was probably Walter Carlos' "Switched-On Bach" (it wasn't -- it was Ruth White's "Short Circuits") I started chasing Carlos albums and ended up falling into Classical in a big way.
After the movie, "The Sting" came out, there was a revival of interest in ragtime.....which the folks got on albums by the New England Ragtime Ensemble, and I learned to play on piano. After suffering from massive ridicule through my junior High and HS years, I decided to get with the program -- and picked up Boston "Boston"; Jefferson Starship, "Earth"; Fleetwood Mac, "Rumours"; and Rush, "A Farewell to Kings".
Going to college, I started collecting 10cc and Little Feat, and occasionally going prog with PG-era Genesis.
Things didn't really get bad until Media Player.....

Yep. I was disappointed when they shortened their name. Kinda robbed something. They had a neat stage show at the time. IIRC I saw them at the Whiskey before the got the gig at the Roxy.
One thing I remember about the show was the bass player had a cardboard cutout of an upright bass body and he played his electric standing up in a stand behind the cutout for a while at the start of their show. Gave me a chuckle when he tipped over the cutout cuz I just didn't catch on at first.

Redeye just informed me about the average cost of a wedding, 27 grand. The average.
People, do not concern yourselves with the ginned up controversies of the left. We live in a culture that does not respect pair bonding and yet we are spending an average of $27,000 on it. We're fucking imbeciles. That's all you need to remember. It's for every situation. Fucking imbeciles.

Get off it.
$25 bucks for a filing fee downtown at City Hall and about a grand for a catered reception at a local restaurant.
That's what I paid for my own wedding.
We are still married 36 years later. Unlike those dipshits that blew $27k and are divorced 2 years later.
