Overnight Open Thread (7-7-2013)
— Maetenloch

Well here is a heat map showing the average distance to a major road, highway, or interstate. Red is far and dark blue is close.

And based on this Nevada (or Idaho depending on how you measure) has the most nowhere. On the other hand Ohio and some of the smaller New England states are probably the most connected states.

Michael Savage: Idiot

Michael Savage has never been my cup of tea but here he really really stepped in his own idiocy and dragged it all around leading Aaron Worthington to do a full-on Fisking of Savage's comments.

Despite all the self-congratulations for his research what Savage doesn't know about the Zimmerman case, guns, and the law would literally fill books and hundreds of blog posts. Here's the short version of his errors:

Zimmerman was charged with murder - not manslaughter.
The Kel-Tec 9mm Zimmerman carried does not have a manual safety
Carrying a gun 'cocked and locked' doesn't mean you're out to hunt humans
Guns shouldn't be carried in Condition Three just to slow down perps when they take it from you
Zimmerman did not call Martin a 'f*cking coon'
Zimmerman was not in his truck when the dispatcher said 'we don't need you to do that'
The dispatcher did not give him an order and has testified that he did not.
The fact that Zimmerman could have acted differently and the shooting avoided does not mean that Zimmerman is 'responsible' for the shooting.

I'm sure I've left out a few more but don't rely on me or Aaron Worthing - listen to Savage's own words right here:

John Kerry, Yachts, and the Stupid/Lazy Quadrant

Given his nearly perfect bad judgment the yacht was exactly where Kerry should have been. But the reflexive lying about it was despicable.

You see, on the one hand: John Kerry went yachting, instead of getting involved in the Egypt none-dare-call-it-coup. On the other hand: John Kerry went yachting, instead of getting involved in the Egypt none-dare-call-it-coup. And on the gripping hand: I had and have precisely zero confidence in Susan Rice when it comes to any sort of foreign affairs involving the continent of Africa. To use the classic military formulation*: John Kerry is Stupid/Lazy; Rice is Stupid/Energetic. Which is to say: Kerry can be counted on at least to generally not deliberately go out and do something (and thus mess things up); you would have been able to count on Rice to do precisely that.

Instapundit vs. Ann Althouse

Over the past several decades, women have asserted a right to make all the judgments in matters of gender and sexuality. And, in fact, we do "facilitate" destructive choices, when they're by women. We subsidize unwed mothers, we give women a pass on sexual behavior that would be considered predatory if it were done by males, we give them all sorts of "choice" that men don't have and then absolve them, culturally and legally, from judgment over the way they exercise those choices. No similar dispensation is given to men.
A society that ran according to Ann Althouse's views on marriage and commitment might, in fact, be a better one than the one we live in now, but it is most definitely not the one we live in now. Observing that, and noting the unfairnesses involved, is not "victimology" - though given how successful women have been in obtaining power via victimology, no one should be surprise if men start to give it a try.

But I do not believe that women deserve a monopoly in determining what views on gender and sexuality and parenting are acceptable. Why would they?
What's funny is that so many women seem genuinely perplexed that men would even dispute that monopoly. Ann is a thoughtful and open-minded and smart woman, but at some level I feel like she doesn't really get it.

Ann is a thoughtful and open-minded and smart woman, but at some level I feel like she doesn't really get it. Of COURSE she doesn't get it. Ann Althouse is, first and foremost, a woman. And as a first-and-foremost woman, she's convinced of her own self-importance. As a result, she is bone-shatteringly stupid on a lot of things; not everything, but certainly everything gender-related. And that's why I don't read her bullshit.

Those guys who dies in the plane crash, I read about that one time. The plane crashed right after take off, about 1 am on a freezing winter night. The people at the airport didn't know it crashed and didn't go looking for them until the next morning, about 7 hours after the crash.

If the crash didn't kill them, I guess they froze to death. It was a horrible way to die.

That would be Michael Weiner in a previous life. In which he routinely palled around with blatant, unrepentant pedophile Allen Ginsberg.

That "Savage" doesn't know what he's talking about when it comes to defensive carry of handguns should come as no surprise. He knows nothing about anything. He's a sad opportunistic hack who jumped on the right-wing radio bandwagon to turn a buck when he needed one, just as he previously jumped on lefty nonsense such as medicinal herbs.

Sharpton said that it made little sense to him that Zimmerman did not use his recent training in Mixed Martial Arts (MMA) to incapacitate Martin during their struggle and instead used his firearm.

79 That map about the roads is interesting. I'd be interested to see a map with a narrower focus, though. Like, "Average distance to an interstate." NH has three different interstates that go through her - I93 is the primary one, then I89, and then an ickle-bitty bit of I95 out on the coast -- but all the rest of the state is a bunch of twisting state roads and country byways. Once you get up past the notches it takes FOR-EV-ER to get anywhere. NOTHING is a straight line from point A to point B. I can't imagine what it's like in VT, which has I91 and that's about it. Route 7 and Route 9 are the only other major roadways I can think of. Getting over the Green Mountains is hell if you don't know where you're going.

It tends to throw for a loop some people from more urbanized parts of the world. "Well, we're out of fuel, and we don't have any food or water, but we're on a nice highway. So someone will come along."

Should those amongst the horde be unwilling, I ask them to break this stubbornness. Should they find themselves upon their knees asking only for one cause, I pray for one innocent little girl.

I pray for God and Country. I pray for the indigent. I pray to Thank You for what I've had, what I have and what I may receive. I pray for those who have lost their lives to allow me to pray in the manner I'm accustomed.

In practice, we just want someone who knows what he wants and goes for it. Instead of the "what do you want to do? " "I don't know, what do you want to do"."I don't know" dance, just say "Hey, I know a great place to eat, are you free Friday? I'd love to take you".

A tip from someone who's learned the hard way: if you break up with someone, or have been broken up with someone, make damn sure you NEVER show up at the same place as they are anything within, let's say, five years of the end of the relationship. You WILL get a restraining order, criminal stalking and attempted rape charges thrown against you.

You have *no* idea how many adults I know with fully grown adult children who continue to routinely give in and thus reinforce said tantrum behavior among said adult children.

It is a significant and widely based problem. Though some resist it.

A friend of mine said, "When my oldest is eighteen, he gets kicked out the front gate with a stone-tipped spear and a cured bearskin, and he better not ever come back here."

I said, "Isn't that a bit harsh?"

296 It's pretty funny that Althouse decided to have her blog commit suicide, by having her husband moderate all comments. I mean, it was completely obvious to her that: 1) Women have complete sexual autonomy. 2) Men have no right to intervene (or even comment upon) women's complete sexual autonomy. 3) If a woman decides to have a child, any male she has been involved with is obligated to pay for the kid for the next eighteen years (including, in many cases, men who didn't actually father the child). Naturally she responded with scorn and mockery to anyone who questioned these self-evidently true propositions, and was unprepared for anybody pushing back. It's about time, anyway - I never forgave her for being one of the "conservative intellectuals" who helped legitimize Obama in 2008, along with refusing to stated whether she opposed Obama or not in 2012, even after four disastrous years of Dear Leader's rule. And, on the bright side, we will be spared her constant hectoring telling us to buy stuff through her Amazon web portal.

Especially with California women, who basically make up their mind in the first five seconds they see your face/body whether they like you or not. If they don't, it honestly doesn't matter what you say, do, or how funny you are. If you're judged a creep, you're just a creep, now and forever, and nothing can ever change that.

Plus like I said earlier, women will file stalking charges against you just for being in the same room as they are, if they find you even slightly annoying.

305 "Lurch went from the poorest US Senator who was sleeping on friends couches in Georgetown to one of the richest"

My favorite John Kerry story is about how he gave a long impassioned speech in Brookline about how we all had to be more giving and less selfish.

That very same year, which was before he hooked up with the loaded Widow Heinz, Lurch donated a grand total of $50 to charity. And bought himself a flashy new top of the line Ducati motorcycle.

Not that I object to people owning Ducatis. I do object to people who earn more than I do buying a Ducati, while telling me I'm a selfish piece of shit, and while donating less than I did to charity that year.

My second favorite John Kerry story is how he gave a long impassioned speech about how we all needed to "chip in a bit more" in taxes. And having had it then come out that he was domiciling his yacht over the state border to avoid the Asshole-twoshits state tax bite.

She was okay at what she did, but inexperienced. Somewhat empathetic, but still tried sometimes to leak in the feminist "you need to understand about women" stuff. I would listen, then tell her I already knew that stuff, and I was still judged a knuckledragging woman-hater at my last job for annoying a co-worker. I don't know if I ever got through to her about that or not. I really tried to explain to her what it's like to be a lonely 40-something year-old guy these days, and all the resulting frustrations, but I'm not sure that got through either.

On top of that, she was still in school and had to work on her PhD, so she could only see me for about a year. Since then I haven't been able to afford counseling anyway, but dang if that wasn't one of the quickest years of my life.

I've been through nowhere in NV, on US 50, US 6, and US 95. If your vehicle isn't in a running condition that you would consider dependable, don't drive those routes. Fellow travelers are few and far between, especially on US 6 between Tonopah and Ely, and US 95 between Hawthorne and Beatty.

And it's worth mentioning that the local constabulary in Tonopah just luuuv to issue speeding tickets to people passing through, with extra attention given to vehicles with non-NV plates.

346 Having done geologic field work in both Nevada and Idaho, it is hands down Idaho. When their isn't a major road in Idaho, there isn't a logging road either, and Idaho's topography doesn't lend itself to offroad driving as well as Nevada. But most of all I credit The Frank Church - River of No Return Wilderness, which is even more forbidding than that name suggests. On the Nevada side, unless you are a genuine mountain man, of which I have known an actual Idaho specimen, you can live far more remotely in the silver state than in the Genstone one. When it comes to settlements and inhabited places in the middle of BFE, Nevada has it. Other than Elk River, ID, you have more chance of living in an actual town at the end of a oseudo highway in Nevada than you can in Idaho.

---------

I've seen this firsthand, torquewrench.

Asphalt roads degrade rather quickly from the heat...and then add to that, the freezing temps in the winter...

Before long, the surface breaks up into little chunks.

It's easier to take a road grader and just scrape it all off, leaving a smooth dirt surface that can be graded again.

Some of the more-traveled dirt roads will get a 'squirt top'.

That's a layer of oil, sprayed onto the surface, which hardens it.

I don't know what road maps or data they used for that 'Middle of Nowhere' map...but it doesn't reflect what you will find in rural Oklahoma.

406 ""I've had to turn off normal comments, because there was some terrible abuse. -- Althouse" People openly disagreed with me! Waaaaaaaaaah! It's not *fair*. I want the *nice* people back. The ones who agree with me. And don't make a fuss." I think that Feminism is the real lodestone for Althouse, as opposed to liberalism/conservatism. That led her to be a little too blatant in expressing her view that women can do whatever they want, and men are expected to be subservient and pay for the consequences of womens' actions, no matter what. So she got pushback - I've had an acquaintance who committed suicide over his treatment in divorce court - and as Instapundit noted, it would be a national crisis if women committed suicide as often as men do over family law matters.

480 shredded chi: go for it. Would love to know if it works.

I also have a brother-in-law who, when he has the spare time, loves to mess with door-to-door salespeople. His shtick usually goes as follows:

1. Answer the door and let them go through their ENTIRE spiel.
2. Act dumb 'n slow. Ask questions that were obviously already addressed and will force them to basically go through their entire spiel over again, but out of order.
3. Ask them about stuff that will obviously put them in the position of having to say "no." For instance, if they're selling carpet cleaning, ask them if they'll do your car. When they say no, ask them if they'll do someone else's car. When they say no to that too, ask them if they'll do your relative's house that's 500 miles away. And so on.
4. Finally, after the salesperson is obviously exhausted, give them a glimmer of hope by saying something nice about their product, then tell 'em you have to find your wallet. Ask them to wait while you shut the door. Then never come back.

481 Just as a random whatever.....our "home park" for hiking is Sanborn, Santa Clara County, CA [just like our "home dive-site" used to be Monterey]. Both get you a nod and a "I guess we won't have to check competence too much, or you wouldn't be here."

While waiting for the BH to "refresh herself" on Friday after a "big loop", I got into a discussion with another couple who had also just come off the hill, and they talked about a parallel trail we hadn't previously tried, so we tried it today. We were pretty sure that we'd seen the top and bottom [and it turned out that we had] but we didn't know before if it was pot-smoking kids wandering into the undergrowth or whatever since it had no signage.

Now, part of the thing about hiking in the Santa Cruz Mountains is just knowing where you are and what you're doing, even if you know what park you're in -- so you get nicknames. If there is a loop trail in a park, people generally approach it clockwise -- so it is the "waterfall loop" if you hike that way. We had a joke about hiking it counterclockwise -- if someone fell off the edge, your emergency call needed to include: "pleH! pleH! em eucseR! em eucseR!"....so if we hike up the Peterson Trail and come down through the campgrounds on the Sanborn, that's an "em eucser". A "big loop" is going up the Sanborn Trail past the Peterson Trail junction and down the San Andreas Trail.

But the trail we were on today had no name -- despite, oddly, being on the map. In the future, the BH and I have agreed to call it the "chainsaw trail", being as it could surely use some -- there are fallen trees across the trail in many spots. It became a joke early on in the process -- we'd characterize spots with obstacles as "over, over, around, over, under, over" or "under, around, over, around, over".

Despite feeling like an obstacle course, it was a very beautiful hike and a tad less grueling than the normal Peterson Trail (not because it had less steep parts or was shorter, but because it alternated between hard/soft).

So that's why I'm aching this evening.

The BH and I went diving in Honduras, Fiji, Hawaii, SoCal, Puerto Rico....until she got bent hard and one of the world's experts recommended that she not dive again.....as in, when Dr. Overlock says, "eh, I don't think so.....", who the hell do you call for a second opinion?

The thing about hiking, though, is that it tends to inspire you to surpass your limits. We took my aunt to Muir Woods and walked up along the main path, then came down a more adventuresome trail (though it was mainly downhill) shortly after her knee surgery. As we got reasonably close to the visitor center, she said that she probably couldn't do a mile....and we informed her that she'd already done two. Doing treadmills and stairs and sidewalks is hard on a body in ways that winding trails, obstacles, and pauses to enjoy scenery are not.

Well I can breathe, that has to be good for something. Hopefully it improves the alacrity of my posts, although probably it just means I can maintain coherence for 15 seconds instead of 10. We gain where we can.

Sven,

Granted, this is PURELY anecdotal, based on 5 trips to this place but no shit, I've wondered a time or two if the metro-sexualization of seemingly many of the 30 and below male crowd has turned off many of the women here. Hasn't it been shown that humans generally respond to similar biological traits in the opposite sex? (strength, fertility, health, etc).

504 Fastfreefall,

No your post made sense, if women or men were looking for greater similarity to their own gender norms they'd be well "San Fran ready."

Anyway thank Horrywood and the collusion between academia and media.

I can't speak about the under 30 crowd, but for this old broad, nothing makes a man sexier than dish pan hands. We have a lot of fun horsing around together cleaning up the kitchen.
