11 Couple great endings to this weekends Nascar races. Both Nationwide and Sprint Cup had great finishes. IndyCar had a good finish, too.

12 OK,  so I went to church this evening (slacker's mass) and I come back to find aglets, a gaming thread,  and needle nose pliers.

Am I supposed to invent a game using these?  Like use the needle nose pliers to form an aglet around a cord,  and then thread it through something in a certain amount of time?

Benghazi, guys.  Benghazi.

Ace of Spades is our intellectual aglet. It keeps the minds of the Horde of Morons from unraveling due to the everyday stress and strain of the modern era of Obama the Magnificent (eff-up).

 

That's my theory and I'm stickin' to it.

 

So yeah, thinking of Ace as a little plastic aglet may seem insulting, but there you are.  Without him, we'd all be long gone crazy.

 

And that chick with the red hair on Mad Men?  What a rack.

23 Lord love a duck.

TR, Jr. is in his room studying for an AP test, listening to his Ipod while watching Duck Dynasty, and taping away on his lap top. It's like NORAD in there.

And the kid has 7 A's and 1 B. God bless him. Got his mother's genes.

24 We have never been a people who place all of our faith in government to solve our problems; we shouldn't want to. But we don't think the government is the source of all our problems, either.

... lost me here ...

Because we understand that this democracy is ours. And as citizens, we understand that it's not about what America can do for us; it's about what can be done by us, together, through the hard and frustrating but absolutely necessary work of self-government. (Applause.) And, Class of 2013, you have to be involved in that process. (Applause.)

The founders trusted us with this awesome authority. We should trust ourselves with it, too. Because when we don't, when we turn away and get discouraged and cynical, and abdicate that authority, we grant our silent consent to someone who will gladly claim it. That's how we end up with lobbyists who set the agenda; and policies detached from what middle-class families face every day; the well-connected who publicly demand that Washington stay out of their business -- and then whisper in government's ear for special treatment that you don't get.

That's how a small minority of lawmakers get cover to defeat something the vast majority of their constituents want. That's how our political system gets consumed by small things when we are a people called to do great things -- like rebuild a middle class, and reverse the rise of inequality, and repair the deteriorating climate that threatens everything we plan to leave for our kids and our grandkids.

Every time that Draper actor is on interviews he's such a fag that it ruins his onscreen persona.

46 OT I have an Amazon Prime account that's very handy and just bought a CD. It has a feature called Auto-rip and you get the MP3 version free in a cloud account and the Disc at your door in a couple of days. Well it asks "Do you want to auto-rip your previous purchases free?" So now I have a couple dozen albums in a free cloud account to stream or download whenever it's convenient.

If the laces are nylon, just burn the end with a match and form a point with your fingers. Be careful to not burn your fingers. Maybe use gloves.

   When the aglet plastic comes off, the lace is easily fixed by twisting and melting the lace to stop fraying.

    TR, methinks you are justifiably proud of that kid.

I made the mistake of watching one or two episodes this season, again what a waste. you should never ever for any reason allow any actor say in the writing or directing of anything. actors should always and only stuff a sock in their fat mouths and speak only as directed.

120 I find my patients for serial television is about used up. I did make it through the entire run of Fringe but the most I can last is about a season. I would have gave up on The Following after a couple shows but it is so fatalistically bad I watch to see what dumb shit they're going to do next. I think that's why I like Grimm, it's more episodic then serial.

HA has a link to the uproar surrounding the new Chinese "People's Daily" headquarters building.  It is rather strongly reminiscent of a certain male body part.  Strongly reminiscent.  As in, what is wrong with these guys?

151 Aglets... yes..     You know, I hate to admit this, but I'm so cheap... I had a pair of lace-up boots ( not lace wigs ) and the damn aglets cracked and failed on one side.   No way to match the laces so..

I didn't think of the glue...   I sat down with thread and needle and made a threaded tip...  and you know what?  Lasted about 5 years on that boot.. before I relaced 'em.    I know.. but I hate to throw good stuff away, but until that happened to me... I never marveled at the awesomeness of the simple aglet.. that enables the humble shoelace to reach for the heavens and serve their masters ( us morons ) to the best of their abilities.  Wow.

207 I like Mad Men, partly because I'm an ad guy. But also because I'm a history buff, and that's really what the show's about - the social upheaval and events of the sixties, and how iit impacts the characters' lives. Matthew Weiner, the show's creator is, to be sure, a liberal. But I think when it comes to political bias, the show is pretty even-handed. For example, most of the main characters are liberal - they're against the Vietnam War. And they wear their support of civil rights as a badge of honor. But as human beings, they're morally decrepit, liars, cheaters and hypocrites. It's an accurate snapshot, I think, of that generation. The Clintons come to mind.

235 nah, mad men simply sucks aglets. it is no secret that they are trying to show the impact of the cultural upheaval on the lives of the characters during the 50/60/70s but who cares. You get that much from listening to the opening theme song and the discordant notes in the ending bars. no one need som hollywood agletsucker / agletlicker to give them semiinformative shaded opinion of history. hollwood should simply spin an amusing yarn for late night Sunday. I am most entertained by the cool hip nature of the characters and snark. seriously, it is amusing to see there were hard drinking, smart, snarky, cool guys in business suits before there were hippies or before they wee invented in hollywood. Should have stuck with a winning formula. none of the characters have a lot of depth to plumb and not enough good between the lot of them to cobble a soul worth saving.

328 310. Game of Thrones is a ripoff of Robert Howard- NO Danny's Unsullied will turn against her- no spoilers Have you read all the books? Granted, after the first 3 it's all downhill. But a Howard ripoff? No.

329 There are those who say we should have no government and live in a state of total anarchy. And then there are others who say we should live as slaves in a totalitarian police-state.


I reject this false choice and will seek commonsense solutions, that just happen to always result in increased government power.

330 "The economic situation is worsening from month to month, and unemployment has reached a level that puts democratic structures ever more in doubt," he said.

"The Germans have not yet realised that southern Europe, including France, will be forced by their current misery to fight back against German hegemony sooner or later," he said, blaming much of the crisis on Germany's wage squeeze to gain export share.

Mr Lafontaine said on the parliamentary website of Germany's Left Party that Chancellor Angela Merkel will "awake from her self-righteous slumber" once the countries in trouble unite to force a change in crisis policy at Germany's expense.

His prediction appeared confirmed as French finance minister Pierre Moscovici yesterday proclaimed the end of austerity and a triumph of French policy, risking further damage to the tattered relations between Paris and Berlin.

"Austerity is finished. This is a decisive turn in the history of the EU project since the euro," he told French TV. "We're seeing the end of austerity dogma. It's a victory of the French point of view."

337 310. Game of Thrones is a ripoff of Robert Howard- NO

Have you read all the books? Granted, after the first 3 it's all downhill. But a Howard ripoff? No.

 

1. If you read the "Hyborian Age" by Robert E. Howard he describes the 6 kingdoms, as opposed to 7, and he describes a giant white ape which pretty much sounds like White walkers.

2. I haven't the books, but history is a guide to easily predicted events, just like I knew Targaryen knew the Valyrian language.
