Getting Baked To Enjoy Your Kids
Mark Wolfe declares in the NYT that he needs to get high in order to really enjoy his children:
I swear I am a more loving, attentive and patient father when I take my medication as prescribed. Perhaps this isn't surprising. As anyone who inhaled during college can attest, cannabis enhances the ability to perceive beauty, complexity and novelty in otherwise mundane things (grout patterns in your bathroom floor, the Grateful Dead, Doritos), while simultaneously locking you into a prolonged state of rapt attention. You not only notice the subtle color variations in your cat's fur, you stare at them in loving awe for 20 solid minutes.I submit that this can be enormously salutary to the parent-toddler relationship. Beyond food, shelter and clothing, what do small children need most from their parents? Sustained, loving, participatory attention. Thank you, Doctor.
. . . .
>But for me, at least, the benefits clearly outweigh the risks. I find the time I spend with my children to be qualitatively different and simply more fun when I take my medicine (always in private, never in front of them, never too much).
Interestingly I also find my entire family more fun and pleasant and qualitatively different when I take my self-prescribed medical rum and whiskey.
Even if you're a casual fan of the James Bond oeuvre I think you'll enjoy this podcast that goes into how important music and sound have been in the various the James Bond movies. I haven't seen Goldfinger in years but I can hear just a snippet of music or background sound and know exactly where it came from in the movie.
The 'Doctor Who' and 'Star Wars' Crossover
More than you'd expect.

OT: Watching "102 Minutes that Changed America" on the History Channel with my 7 year-old daughter. It's time to have the 9/11 talk, but I'm crying so hard I can barely speak.

"Four score and seven years ago our fathers brought forth on this continent a new nation, conceived in liberty, and dedicated to the proposition that all men are created equal.
Now we are engaged in a great war, testing whether that nation, or any nation, so conceived and so dedicated, can long endure. We are met on a great battle-field of that war. We have come to dedicate a portion of that field, as a final resting place for those who here gave their lives that that nation might live. It is altogether fitting and proper that we should do this.
But, in a larger sense, we can not dedicate, we can not consecrate, we can not hallow this ground. The brave men, living and dead, who struggled here, have consecrated it, far above our poor power to add or detract.The world will little note, nor long remember what we say here, but it can never forget what they did here.
It is for us the living, rather, to be dedicated here to the unfinished work which they who fought here have thus far so nobly advanced.
It is rather for us to be here dedicated to the great task remaining before us—
that from these honored dead we take increased devotion to that cause for which they gave the last full measure of devotion—
that we here highly resolve that these dead shall not have died in vain—
that this nation, under God, shall have a new birth of freedom—
and that government of the people, by the people, for the people, shall not perish from the earth."

IIRC, and I may not, SandW and Colt used opposite directions of twist in the barrels (along with opposite directions of cylinder rotation, which I do know is fact) in their respective revolvers.

Today's my 30 birthday. I realized as I was sitting at work that there are soldiers in the class who were 7 years old when the attacks occured. In another two years we'll reach about the limit of memory, and after that we'll have soldiers who cannot remember the attacks at all.

It's not really all that different from the fact that most parents, in most of human history, until the last 30 years, have often been on some substance or another.
Clean drinking water? That one was always tricky. Booze? That, that doesn't get you deadly diseases like water does. Best to drink that with your meals.

Yeah, Alex, I watched it. I think it may have potential. But, being an NBC show will most likely screech uncontrollably off the rails fairly quickly.
I got into a debate with a couple of guys about whether planes would actually tumble out of the sky in that scenario. I argued that we don't know what caused the power to go out so possibly they could. Plus I think they just did it for visual effect.

I know, but I found the premise of Dies the Fire to be stupid as well, so I wasn't going in with much hope for this show. It didn't disappoint.
Seriously, banning guns in a low tech society?
The idea that you can shut down all electronic capability permanently is stupid.

crying so hard I can barely speak.
I was 8 months pregnant on September 11th. My soon to be 11 year-old knows all about that day. Her dad was in Boston, waiting to fly home. She knows about the attacks, the aftermath. The thing that she cannot imagine: no planes flying, quiet skies. Interestingly, she, and most of her classmates are badass. When discussing terrorist actions at school, my older child's class talks about understanding, negotiations, blah, blah.. not my little one. Her class talks about tactics, ambush, attack. They have a different outlook - they have to.

A plane without power is a big glider, so I found the tumbling part silly. It's possible that something could knock them down, but then you'd expect to see the effects elsewhere as well.

It's possible, I guess, but I'd need to see a cite for that. Mind you, there was a terrorist attack on the SAME building eight years earlier, in 1993, when dipshit detonated a van full of explosives in the parking garage next to some supporting columns.

One of the commenters mentioned that LBJ's biographer claimed he was a physical coward, so that might have made a difference. Depends how many people he could knife in the back I guess. Then again, I'm guessing that a lot of Dem presidents would be trying to do that.

Re: Chicago as the center of the universe
I've had that convo with a number of friends. You'll see the same thing, strong liberal black figures are popping up more and more in TV shows in the role of "the unquestionable authority figure", often serving as the hand of "deus ex machina" in the plot, etc.
I've also seen a massive spike the last 4 years in TV shows mention Harvard, and Harvard Law School. There is some show on USA where everyone who went to harvard has superpower-like abilities, and the only way the young upstart is accepted by them is when the strong unquestionable black liberal authority figure dictates that everyone accept the person unquestionably.
My friends hate watching TV with me.

I did see a lot of flags around today, and the local radio station that plays 80s music for the noon hour instead played an hour of patriotic American music which I was very appreciative of.
Whether or not the school bothers to teach about it, my son knows what happened on 9/11 and he knows who was responsible for it and why it is very important to "never forget"

Andy, I said to my husband just tonight that the Hollywood libtards are slavering at the bit to get their messaging out there via "entertainment." Every sitcom, every crime procedural, everything. I mean, SNL doesn't even pretend that it's anything but leftist propaganda anymore. Once the fall season is in full swing, it's going to be an anti-Mittens fest. And none of it count paid for by jug-ears.
And finally, you couldn't pay me to watch that one-note jackhole Matthew Perry in anything.

I'm right at the edge of that age group. Lot of people, lot of my friends have no recollection of that day. I remember like yesterday. It's burned in my brain and forever will. Some of my earliest memories are of me and dad in his office on the 103rd floor. I thank the Good Lord he left that job in March of '01. Just to be closer to his family.
We all have a story, and each of the next generation needs to be told those stories.

Because there will be a next time, don't doubt that for a minute. Maybe even with a nuclear weapon "stolen" from Iran or Pakistan by "rogue elements."
What can we do? What can we do to end this constant Muslim bullshit?
Nuking Mecca (while immensely satisfying, particularly if it's Ramadan and the place is packed with people killing goats) wouldn't do much, really. You can be sure the money men and the planners won't be there, and they can use that as a rallying cry for generations.
Similarly, a war of extermination is off the table. (Our table, anyway. Not theirs, you can be sure.)
Seize all Muslim assets abroad? Very tempting, and it would certainly knock them back on their heels for a while.
Quarantine? Nobody enters or leaves the Muslim countries ever again. You can't have terrorism if the terrorists are stuck at home.
Any other ideas?

Actually it'll be sometime next month. Ron's advice is to "get what fits your hand" (which sounded *very* familiar) so I'll try whatever I'm allowed.
I was really nervous about asking him for help, if you guess wrong and it turns out the person's a gun hater it can ruin your future interactions, but he'd posted something positive about guns on FaceBook (guess it' not *totally* useless after all). What's funny is, our senior pastor is also exLEO, and used to work for the Justice Department, but (according to Ron) Pastor *really* doesn't want anyone carrying in church, whereas Ron carrys most of the time.
We did also discussed getting the kids enrolled in gun safety courses and what it would take to get me a (CCW?) so he knows what my overall plans are.

So I guess next time some assholes in Islamabad burn a US flag we can murder every Muslim in the US with a clear conscience? After all, there's so much we can learn from our Islamic brothers and sisters, right? That's what we're constantly told. So let's all adopt their ancient tradition of bloody reprisals against the nearest target for any real or imagined insult.

I hate to be an Eeyore but the pictures from the US embassy in Cairo look like a precursor to an embassy takeover. Krauthammer said the US embassy statement apologizing for offending Islam was "a hostage statement. " I expect this time if the Islamists take hostages they will cut off a few heads.

Miss80sbaby, thanks. That's not a bad effort by Mitt.
Steevy, thanks to you too. Sheesh - sorry, but here's my take on Hillary's statement. She idiotically - and typically - is so inept she apologizes AGAIN (that's what's implicit in here line about deploring denigration of religion - it's a slightly rephrased echo of both the despicable embassy statement and the despicable embassy tweet - BTW, WTF is an embassy "tweeting" for?).
Plus, no surprise that the embassy would disgrace itself with its statement. There are some OK folks in the State Dept., but it's not exactly an impressive group overall. And the dominant mindset is pure Beltway clueless.
I know, parody has been rendered stale by things done and said every day by US officials (and tolerated by US citizens). I know, irony is dead. But what to say about the claim, in both the idiotic embassy statement and the clumsy SecState follow-up, that the US simply adores religious tolerance? From an administration that, for perhaps the first time in the country's history, is actually materially and aggressively (not to mention contemptuously) railroading a major religious institution in the service of its bizarre and absurd social engineering obsessions (birth control and the papists)?
But something on the political fall-out of today's various debacles. I've likened the ongoing train-wreck of the current administration to velcro - the little hooks of each particular stumble or transgression probably latch onto someone who wasn't already repelled or at least troubled by one the zillion previous outrages.
My model for November is called Coiled Spring. For diverse reasons, I see a giant landslide in the making, as various loops of the velcro hooked by the endless and varying missteps and atrocities of the non-entity in the WH find expression at one time and place. Anyway, it's seeming to me that today is another - and significant - velcro hook. A Carter-esque vibe, reviving and emphasizing a critique that has had some traction all along - the "apology tour" thing.

I know there a few NJ/NY morons here. If you ever have the chance-make a trip to the West Orange, NJ 9/11 Memorial at Eagle Rock Reservation. it is both beautiful and over whelming. The open book on the pedestal, the Firemen's boots and Hat, the Police hat-all in bronze- lead you to the retaining wall resurfaced in marble with each and every name, age and country etched along the length - All overlooking the NYC skyline. I can not go there without feeling the enormity of what was done to us all the way into my soul. it is diffilcult to explain. It is so very peaceful - I know God hears the prayers.
Oh-thanks for beatin on that coward of the county troll today- i was at points ready to punch my screen and don't know how I would of explained that one id i did - ha.
have a good night and God Bless you all.

I don't know anything about his politics, but I watched two or three of his movies for one reason or another, and they had an appealing message, even if its main delivery system was a crude fat crabby old lady: faith, doin' right, and family. If he made his millions by encouraging moral behavior, inner strength and self-reliance, more power to him.

I cannot help but think that most immigrant Muslims come here to GET AWAY FROM SHARIA law. Everyone has God-given rights to live peacefully here (if they came here legally). If an immigrant wants to impose Sharia, then they clearly have failed their civics lesson and they should be sent back. No waterboarding is necessary.

The word for today, September 11, 2012, is brought to you by the United States Department of State, Hilary Clinton and Barack Obama:
APPEASEMENT
"The Embassy of the United States in Cairo condemns the continuing efforts by misguided individuals to hurt the religious feelings of Muslims – as we condemn efforts to offend believers of all religions. Today, the 11th anniversary of the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks on the United States, Americans are honoring our patriots and those who serve our nation as the fitting response to the enemies of democracy. Respect for religious beliefs is a cornerstone of American democracy. We firmly reject the actions by those who abuse the universal right of free speech to hurt the religious beliefs of others."

Well, the fifth stage is certainly preferable to the "Argh, just shoot me now" stage that was the primaries. Of course, "Dan the Mitt-spam man" *really* didn't make it any easier to like Romney. Dan, if you're out there? I want Romney to win *in spite* of your so-called help for him. My main concern was that he'd fold like McCain did, but so far I've been most pleasently surprised.

I am offended you stick christians on trees in 2012. and wish for the death of millions of Jews.

Moki lived in Saudi Arabia for awhile. She's only mentioned a tiny bit of what happened there, but it was really, really, bad.

SOB stood up to the CEO of Morgan Stanley too. He drilled the hell out of the employees after 1993, and he told them to ignore everyone telling them to go back into the buildings because he would tell them when it was safe to return. They followed his advice, they all lived, including the CEO who he ordered out of the office on 9-11. That is how an organization should be run, he was given the job of protecting the company, and everyone, CEO included, reported to him on safety matters.

Remember that Air France plane that blew up due to "ice"? That particular flight had been targeted with bomb threats, and all sorts of interesting stuff.
The question is: how much do you trust the French Government to not whitewash a crime by muslims?

======
Eh, in one of Pournelle's military sci-fi anthologies (I'm pretty sure it was one of the 'There Will be War' books) there was a story where aliens, worried about the rapid technological advance of humanity, 'seeded' the planet with a compound that would prevent high-pressure combustion (ie gunpowder, ICE's, etc) in the hopes that this would retard the growth of humanity. From the context of the story it was set in the 1950's (apparent Korean war soldiers). Didn't work, of course, humanity took another course and developed memetic warfare (not the term used of course) to use against the aliens.
I like the 'Dies the Fire' books. Who was it that described science fiction as stories with one impossibility and following through the consequences? epobirs probably knows. Anyway, Stirling does an decent job following that idea over the first few books of the series. It eventually becomes damn close to the pagan 'Left Behind' series though, I'll admit.

That's all that Europe can do. They have stripped their military down to nothing, and they rely on us to do the heavy lifting. France destroying Ivory Coast's air force probably took a few hours, and that is what France's air force can only muster. The Navies of Europe can barely get their ships out of harbor, and when they do, the ships can't do much.
It would be better for us to work with India to put a cork on this Islamic shit rather than hoping that Europe's balls finally drop.

Exactly. The fact that no one's officially declared it doesn't mean we're not experiencing world war. The problem is, until someone *does* get the guts to admit what's happening we're *really* limited in what we can do. I only got part-way through Churchill's first volume of his memoir, but the parallels are chilling.

PurpAv, good point about Hizbollah in Venezuela. Don't forget they also have had a presence in the (somewhat lawless) "triangle" area of southern Brazil bordering Argentina and Paraguay for years, as well. Not far from Iguacu Falls, which are truly amazing. Not sure how things are there now, was there in 1985.
rabidfox, would be easy to look up (but I'm too lazy), but normally a post like Cairo is NOT a political appointee, if by that you mean a non-career, non-FSO type. There are certain very senior FSOs who, through various paths, become somewhat like political appointees in that they get sensitive senior posts, and have some sort of association or favor from political factions outside State - but usually it's rather merit-based. Like using Amb. Negroponte in Baghdad post-CPA. He'd been in various very hot spots with high political profile before (e.g. Honduras during the contra/Sandinista thing).

The local news, KSTP 5 Minneaplois St.Paul had 2 stories on 9/11 at the top of the newscast. One with a national slant and one with the "local" slant.
Word is that Stanley Hubbard, the owner is conservative. But he let his money making AM station KSTP 1500 go to hell. They listened to some radio "experts" and dropped conservative commentators Rush and Jason Lewis, because they wanted "touchy-feely" "local" broadcasts about 5 years ago. Miserable failure. A few years later they went to sports and I think that is format failing them too. They are dropping the Twins Baseball Broadcasts?

For those facepalming over the fact that the French responded appropriately to a dust-up in Ivory Coast (formerly a nice place), be advised the French have been very serious and fairly ruthless in Africa when needed. Likewise, they don't screw around on the intel side. Very aggressive and good and not that careful. I refer here to internal and external (they don't have our legal or institutional separation between internal and foreign threat management, though they do have two intel services). Can't recall it now - was it Bokasa the First in the sorely-missed Central African Empire? - who hung up the phone on Giscard d'Estaing and got straightened out by French paratroops toute suite?
Anyway, whatever their reputation based on May 1940 and occupation, the French have generally been extremely tough and pretty competent when it comes to African intel and military matters. The despicable amorality of some of their foreign policy and the shenanigans of their political class (as with their secret oil deals with Saddam) are really a separate matter. Their intel side is one to warm the cold ruthless hearts of AoSHQ afficionados.

Might I recommend having a beer or two (or more, depending on your preference), then going for a nice 2-3 mile walk before bed? It really makes a difference.

It's a fundamentally different outlook. An embassy is sovereign soil and there can be no excuse for an attack on it. None. This principle is the basis for all civilized relations between nations.
Muzzies aren't civilized. They do this over and over. It's not a one-off. It's time to recognize that.

IllTemperedCur, I can't contest what you say. I just wanted to point out that France had not tread lightly with assholes in Africa since WWII (and often they have been stomping on people really needing a stomping). People get caught up in the French surrender-monkey thing and it's fun but not quite accurate.
PurpAv, seems to me the Pakistan thing is entirely geography, not Cold War inertia or connections. Just no other way to sustain even a small operation in Afghanistan. And as you well know, it's really so bad it's stranger than fiction: a substantial faction in the Paki intel/military establishment is our very active enemy, not just hosting OBL but of course supporting the Taliban. But the Afghanistan thinggy is a whole 'nuther long discussion in itself.

Perfectly consistent with last week's Dem convention where they boo'd God and Israel. Anyone who doesn't see Obama for what he is is either purposefully refusing to see it, or is in deep denial.
Denial can be very powerful. Not to go all Godwin, but I wonder what it took, and how long it took, for German holdouts to finally see Hitler for what he was.
We need a surrogate, maybe Trump or Sarah, to start questioning Obama's commitment to American values and American culture, citing examples. (Much as I'd like to hear someone publicly questioning his loyalty, I think it would be too abrupt to go there without laying some groundwork first.)

Cork, thanks to you and your son. And as you surely know, in almost all cases the Marine security detachment's job is not physical security of the embassy perimeter, but security of the classified information and systems (typically involving controlling access to secure sections of the embassy cojmplex). In Baghdad, for obvious reasons, we had a very augmented detachment at the embassy annex (palace), which DID have a physical security role - but that was an active war zone. Used to love seeing the squad being relieved from the check-point in front of the palace walking back in near my office, Ma Deuce .50 cal on a shoulder and belts of ammo swinging. Used to think: "there's ANOTHER warm-fuzzy-inducing thing I've never seen in my previous desk jobs".
Not sure what the deal is in Cairo - but I assume Marines there are primarily in the usual classified-protection role.
But Cork your point is key, and hasn't been mentioned much. No way this sort of thing happens without a galactic fuck-up or de facto connivance of the regime in Cairo. In all but the most extreme cases, foreign embassies and esp. US embassies do NOT get abused this way without host-government connivance.
And even with the clearly dramatic changes in Egypt the last year, I think it's difficult to over-state the alarming nature of this incident. Hard to believe the regime can't control this, equally hard to believe they would deliberately allow it.

'I'm outraged by the attacks on American diplomatic missions in Libya and Egypt and by the death of an American consulate worker in Benghazi. It's disgraceful that the Obama Administration's first response was not to condemn attacks on our diplomatic missions, but to sympathize with those who waged the attacks.'”
--
In a subtle way, Romney just called Obama a sympathizer. On 9/11. A sympathizer of the people who attacked us today, and who attacked us on 9/11/01.
The use of the word "sympathizer" is genius. It connotes WW2 nazi sympathizers, commie sympathizers, appeasement, weakness, anti-Americanism.
Let's hope Romney continues this thread throughout the remainder of the campaign.

Hey,
Drunkin sleep til sunset. I woke up, took my half mast Stars&Stripes that I had posted up at 0700 just as the sun was peek'n over the clouds and people were driving off to work, down with a simple personal, silent moment. I said my say on the earlier post, such a day that was, even now so many years ago.
I still remember........I will never forget.

I said that the Dems would try running Clinton against Romney if running Obama against Bush failed.
Looks like I'm right. As the poll gap narrows (or if Romney pulls out a lead), you will see more and more Bubba, to the point where you won't even be sure who is running for President anymore.

Yeah, Walt was a good guy to work for, so long as you never damaged the brand. I remember a story about a girl who worked Storybookland and a guy who worked the Casey Jr. train (both at Disneyland) who were a couple. When his train would pass over her boat sometimes, he would blow his whistle twice and toss a candy to her which she would catch in the folds of her dress.
One day Walt was on her boat. Her boyfriend didn't know and did a candy toss. They were both fired that day. Harsh, maybe. But as far as Walt was concerned, these were two employees playing an elaborate version of "footsie" in front of his guests, on his dime, and with his toys. He was livid.

She had a pretty good run. Even with the gimp leg (broken in some previous attack and healed at an odd angle), she managed to rear probably 15 babies over the past year before something got her.
Years ago, there was a 3-legged gecko that hung by the front door at night. One leg had been reduced to a stump by something gnawing on it and she was pretty beat up when I first noticed her. She healed and cranked out a bunch of gecko babies over the next couple of years. She vanished one day too...

We should offer them a very prompt "official" apology...delivered from the bomb bays of a squadron of B-52's. Special delivery. Marked "urgent". Tape Hershey kisses to the nose of each bomb, so they know we're very sincere about the apology.
Then call them up after a week of "apologizing" and see if that was good enough or if they'd like us to apologize some more.

The British did inform us, as a matter of fact. Further, the British have a policy of not turning over criminals to countries where they are likely to face capitol punishment.
Even after the invasion of Afghanistan the Brits publicly stated that had they caught Bin Laden they wouldn't release him into US custody without gaurantees that the death penalty would not be pursued. It was a minor controversey at the time.
