You'll get the AOSQDD dregs and you'll be grateful for them. Just consider this pre-season practice for the camps.
Global Warming Climate Change Getting a New Name: 'Climate Disruption'
Of course whatever you call it hasn't been happening for almost two decades now.
When the Going Gets Tough, Obama Goes Birther
Most people think of Obama as inept but likable; I think inept and mean-spirited is closer to the truth. As he has so often recently, Obama attacked Fox News. He seems to think that he might have had a successful presidency, if only Fox had gotten with the program:Let's face it, Fox, you will miss me when I'm gone. It will be harder to convince the American people that Hillary was born in Kenya.The only person trying to keep birtherism alive is Obama, as it suits his purposes to portray his critics as a bunch of wingnuts. But Fox News was not the source of birtherism, Obama himself was. For close to twenty years, his official literary bio said that he was born in Kenya. Also-this is pure speculation - I suspect the main reason why Obama's college and law school records are a state secret is that he applied as a foreign student born in Kenya, and received favored treatment as such.
Did They Learn Nothing from Poltergeist?!
A 4,500-year-old American Indian burial ground-one of the richest and best preserved found in California in the past century-has been paved over for a multimillion dollar housing development in the Bay Area. And archeologists are pissed.
Of course it's my understanding that ghosts fizzle out after a few hundred years. And archeologists can be kept at bay by elaborate man-traps, ancient religious cults, and strictly enforced government regulations. So they're good.
UN Committee To Target Islamic Kidnapping, Rape And Torture
As if. Nope, they're investigating the Vatican over torture and abuse instead.
They were required to analyze information from multiple, credible sources.
The 18-page assignment instructions included three sources that students were told to use, including one that stated gassings in concentration camps were a "hoax" and that no evidence has shown Jews died in gas chambers."With all this money at stake for Israel, it is easy to comprehend why this Holocaust hoax is so secretly guarded," states the source, which is a attributed to a webpage on biblebelievers.org.au. "In whatever way you can, please help shatter this profitable myth. It is time we stop sacrificing America's welfare for the sake of Israel and spend our hard-earned dollars on Americans."
The other sources were from the websites history.com and about.com.
U-2 Causes Widespread Shutdown of US Flights Out of LAX
Because the traffic control computers weren't able to handle something flying so high and so fast. Luckily the rumored Aurora plane isn't even detectable by LAX radars.
HYGIENE
It is quite possible that your parents didn't teach you certain things about hygiene while you were growing up. It's quite possible that you don't even have human parents, and were perhaps born from a turd similar to the ones you continuously leave in the bowl without flushing after visiting a public restroom, like a DNA stink-abortion for the next person to discover. Hate to break the news to you, pal, but if you haven't managed to tackle how to properly deal with your fecal waste, everything else in life is going to seem like an impossible challenge.
Amen brother.
Well the idea came from a dumpster.
In 1955, not long after Disneyland opened in Anaheim, California, the Frito-Lay snack company opened "Casa de Fritos," a Mexican-style restaurant in Disneyland's Frontierland. Casa de Fritos got its tortillas from Alex Foods, a local tortilla factory.One day, a salesman from Alex Foods noticed that Casa de Fritos was dumping stale tortillas in the trash. He gave the kitchen a tip: instead of trashing the stale tortillas, cut them up and fry them.
Some time later, Archibald Clark West, a marketing executive for Frito-Lay, stops by Casa de Fritos and encounters the repurposed snack. He falls in love with them, contracts Alex Foods to produce them, and in 1964 the Dorito is born.
The AoSHQ group. Yeah.

Obama goes birther.
My wife has a friend who lived in Hawaii for 4 years as a travel nurse. Said friend hated it with a passion, stating that everyone (imitates Gary Oldman in The Professional: "EVERYONE!!!") is corrupt on the islands and that she doesn't trust the birth certificate that was eventually produced. So take that for what you will.

The meteors are popping pretty high and fast. I would suspect they are out of the range and speed gates on the radar processor. There was an old tale in Readers Digest that I recall:
A pilot of Cessna 172 calls in to flight control for an airspeed check. Pilot1: This is Aztex172 request a speed check, Control: we have you at 120kt and 2200ft. A cocky Navy F18 pilot decides to flash his trash all over the area, calls in an airspeed check despite having better instruments then flight control can measure him Pilot2: This is Blue14 request a speed check, Control: we have you at 500kts and 20000ft; then before any other traffic can hop in: Pilot3: This is Aurora06 requesting a speed check, Control Aurora we have you a 1900Kts and 84000ft. Pilot3: Thank you. Silence on the net.
Since then all the strange black fast things have been called Aurora.

So they looks extra pretty but a a little disgruntled from all the suds and being hosed within an inch of their lives. they will get over it in a day or two.

I'll probably go with Spider Man or X-Men. And when you say SFX I presume you mean CGI. Godzilla is going to require probably a bit of CGI just on principle so I don't think it could be called overblown. Whereas the other two will likely be using CGI where practical SFX would work just as well and look much less cartoony.

This is a kind of Mexican breakfast thing made of left over tortillas. And red sauce and eggs and cheese and whatever else you like.

Thai food is always good. That place has done an excellent job with the signature green curry pork and massaman curry beef so I'm looking forward to a third visit someday.

In the middle of traffic at flight level 70?
My goodness, LAX must be a busy place these days.
For what it's worth, I have talked to former flight crew out of both the SR-71 community and the Space Shuttle community, and both said that it was routine for LA air traffic control to have them on the scope inbound to Edwards. No fuss, no muss, no problems.
My money is on management/technical cock-ups, as usual.

If you live in a completely liberal-dominated place like the Bay Area for a few years, and if you pay attention, you suddenly realize that things which liberals claim to venerate, like "cultural sensitivity" or "biodiversity", suddenly get shoved to the back burner when a real estate developer with connections to the local liberal political machine comes calling.

IIRC the U2 is not fast.. it has a very small speed window that it has to stay within at altitude. If it flies to fast the wings will be ripped off, if it flies to slow it will stall. Again IIRC the window is about 10 knots around 400 knots.
Posted by: The Jackhole somewhere on Ventura Highway at May 06, 2014 07:37 PM (Q4U+O)
It was the altitude, not the speed-over-ground of the U-2.
The U-2 was, is, and always has been a subsonic aircraft. Fact is, most the airliners are faster at their operating altitudes, and the U-2 only matches speeds with 'em at FL-50 or above.
And, oh hell.......it wasn't even the altitude. The many accounts of the SR-71 speed and altitude calls from LAX controllers are myriad, and legendary in status.
It was the same programmers in the FAA, that had previously worked on the Obamacare rollout.

This. Eleventy.
One of the most overlooked and yet most significant things to have happened in 20th century economic history.
And it was a _nasty_ recession. Horribly ugly figures for unemployment and industrial production and final sales. But, followed quickly by a sprightly recovery and the "Roaring Twenties", thanks to sensible laissez-faire policies.

I was at Moffett (basically in Silicon Valley for those not local) back in the Nineties when a NASA ER-2, the civilianized environmental-research version of the U-2, was about to depart. I stopped to check it out, of course.
It's bloody well astonishing. I have seen other high performance jets do a damn near vertical ascent, but they always level off. The U-2 keeps on going and going pretty much straight up until you can't see it any longer.

Never had Thai? Man, if you like hot food, you are missing out. Pad Thai is probably the most popular Thai dish, but I love red curry with beef or pork. And there's a beef salad - I think it's called Crying Tiger? - that will make you hurt. In a good way. I like squid, but many people do not, so there is also some great spicy shrimp dishes. Soups are also wonderful. Damn, now I'm hungry.

I really don't deal with cologne so I'm pretty plain (used the Adidas crap for a long time) but have been grooving on Eucris for awhile now.
That cologne sounds interesting but holy fuck on that price

I have to tell all the Thai restaurants around me:
"No! Not farang hot. Thai hot! Thai hot!"
Otherwise they wimp it out so as not to scare white people who can't deal.
Actually, Chinese still peg the meter. The only time I have ever thought I might need to seek medical attention after the meal, it was so hot, was in a Chinese joint. And that was without being prompted. The dish (can't remember what) was listed as hot-hot, but that sucker was absolutely scorching.

Ok. will do.
i just read a review of Kublai Khan that had me bent over laughing out loud:
"
IAmKing Musk
This is my very first Serge Lutens purchase.
First off, I would like to say this to all High End Department stores i.e Barneys New York and Bergdorf Goodman. If you hire someone to represent the Fragrance section, make sure you quiz the individual on the fragrance they are representing, because I shouldnt have to stand there and explain to your employees what Serge Lutens is and what is Muscs Kublai Khan or Tuberuese Criminelle.
Now, to MKK.
Starts off from first spray of Florals and a lil bit of anamalic Musk. Then evolves to a full blown Dirty Musck, sexy and "sex" like.
Ive been reading the reviews on many sites from smelling like ass to dirty nutts to rose smelling HOBOS. None of these is true. But I will tell you this, this fragrance is not fro the faint at heart. I couldnt see a woman wearing this. SOrry Ladies. It would be a total turn off. But it also takes a Manly-type of man, powerful and confident to pull this off.
Longevity is a monster, but silliage is moderate, which it should be, because more than one or two sprays and you are asking for it.
I would wear this fragrance more on a third or forth date out, or cozing up with a significant other. On the first date or sexy hookup, i would wear Musc Ravegeur, hands down!!"
From this review. I could almost call this the official scent of AOSHQ, or "what to wear when you are going to the barrel." Now i really really want to try it.

I like really hot salsa, chili, Thai food, Mexican - although my stomach doesn't any more, it's no longer cast iron. I probably corroded it through the years. Every now and then, I'll say to hell with it and eat something fiery, realizing full well I'll pay for it.
The only time I've eaten something so hot it was torture rather than pleasure was at a restaurant on a hilltop in Puerto Rico. I ordered a Mexican dish made with peppers I had never heard of - I thought the top of my skull was going to burst open and my brains would hit the ceiling.

I like what our new place in Weatherford does, they ask you how hot you want on a scale of 1 to 5. My friends who I have to be very careful with my cooking for, as in remove the seeds from the half a jalapeno, like it at zero. I've asked for 4 both times and it provides a nice warm glow without being painful.

Coolidge continued those sensible hands-off economic policies, and was the last President to do so.
Posted by: rickl at May 07, 2014 12:16 AM (sdi6R)
The depression lasted from January 1920 to July 1921. Woodrow Wilson, whatever his condition, was president until March 4, 1921. So Coolidge had nothing to do with it, and even Harding was barely involved (as he was with most things that happened during his presidency).

439 "Never had Thai? Man, if you like hot food, you are missing out." I have to tell all the Thai restaurants around me: "No! Not farang hot. Thai hot! Thai hot!"
Yes, you do have to say that, especially here in the Midwest where mild salsa can cause most people's eyes to water. When I make chili for a crowd, I always have to remind myself to stop adding the cumin and chili powder until I find it acceptable, because it will be unpalatable for most of my friends and relatives at that point.

This time of year, I like to have the windows open. A cool breeze at night ventilates the indoors from the heat of the day, yadda yadda. That *is* how it is done in the mountain west, yes?
But last night the people next door figured it was a good time to "get romantic". Of course they couldn't do the thing, I dunno, after dinner. No. They had to make their X rated sound effects between 1 am and 4 am. The racket they made - mostly, SHE made - woke me up and kept me up. And - despite how the screenname might imply - I am not, in fact, a connoisseur of other peoples' sexual machinery.
Should I shout out my window "she's faking it" next time?

Oh, that was 20 years ago - which is why I can't remember the name of the dish or the pepper. Believe me, I've toned it down since then. That dish would finish me off now.

I love cilantro - and also cumin.
But that's one reason why I always resented it when my mother made us eat liver (which she loved and the kids hated). She kept saying, "It's delicious! You'll come to love it!" Nope, never, ever did - in fact the smell of fried liver turns my stomach to this day.
People - well, my mother, anyway - do not get that when you love a food and somebody else hates it, they are not tasting the same thing you are. Their taste buds are not processing it the same way yours are. They're not saying "I hate it!" because they're being stubborn or close-minded or picky.

As to food heat, it always was a puzzle to me why Chinese mustard is so much hotter than regular ole American yellow mustard so one day I looked it up:
http://chinesefood.about.com/od/sauces/a/hot-mustard.htm
And the word itself has an interesting origin:
the name mustard comes from the Latin words mustum (much) and ardens (burning).
To me, Chinese mustard is hotter than most peppers.

Today wasn't too bad -- I explained that I probably wouldn't breathe during the procedure, and if I passed out to complete the draw before attempting to revive me -- oh, and that it is very helpful for them to say, "clear" once the needle is out. And, yes, I was lying down....you don't risk falling that way. She only started to urge me to breathe near the very end.

I've had crowns put on (and, now, one changed!), cavities filled, and periodontal cleaning done without anesthesia. It really speeds things up, and you bounce out of it quickly, beyond the other "no needle" thing.

So the last 3 times I've had blood drawn, I just have them hit me in the back of the hand. They have to use a smaller needle, and the draw itself takes a bit longer, but they usually hit there on the first try.
At least they DO listen to me and do it my way.

-dab on nape.
-touch above shoulder blades.
-a little behind the ear.
The heat of the blood circulation does the work and lets it evaporate the way it was supposed to.

So the last 3 times I've had blood drawn, I just have them hit me in the back of the hand. They have to use a smaller needle, and the draw itself takes a bit longer, but they usually hit there on the first try.
At least they DO listen to me and do it my way.

I've tried that, and the psychological effect isn't as severe, but it does take longer and it's easier for them to collapse the vein.
Still, the funniest manifestation of this particular phobia was how I'd get a splinter, and my mom would say, "I'll go get a needle to get it out" -- and I'd use the tweezers to dig the splinter out by excavating chunks of my hand before she could return with the needle.

I could tell you stories of trying to get people to stitch me up, or even actual attempts - to the point of the needle going through one piece of skin but the "stitcher" backed down, but you wouldn't believe them.
Electrical tape and/or super glue can prevent a lot of stitches if you're the type.

Back in the day, there was some study that found that the amount of nerve impulses among pain nerves was much larger from wearing a really badly-fitting pair of shoes than from an entire appendectomy.....yet, few people will attempt an appendectomy without anesthetic, even if they have to walk to a hospital in badly-fitted shoes. People's minds rebel against the concept of certain things with regard to their bodies, and the physical pain is merely a prompt to get the ball rolling. I have to be told "clear" when the needle is out because with all the grabbing my elbow and holding the cotton pad and everything, I could be mistaken.....but as soon as things are "clear", I can start recovering.
I've also likened it to having a live rattlesnake coiled on your chest. You don't actually have to be bitten to be stressed about it.

Yeah no way would I do that. The dentist sent me to some specialist for a root canal because these days he would rather send you to the high tech dudes instead of doing them himself. The dude he sends me to is going to do a root canal and has the balls to ask if I want to be numbed up. I said are you fucking kidding me??? Numb me me up big. He gives me this short shot that barely did anything and starts to drill. I said woah dude give me some more, and let it settle in. So, he gives me a little more and goes right to the drilling. 15 seconds in I stop him and said dude, don't be be cheap with the shit, use a whole frigging needle if you have to. He says wow you use alot huh? I said call my dentist and let him tell you how much I use, because I bet its 10X more than you're giving me. The guy was a frigging sadist. He had the balls to be surprised that I needed to be numb before he drills into 3 roots.

I bet if you had a firm grip on his balls, and told him that the pressure you plan to apply is directly proportional to the pain you feel, that sumbitch would have you so numb you'd have to drink milkshakes for a week to avoid biting your tongue off.

Cutting up stale tortillas and frying them into what we now call "tortilla chips" had been going on in Mexican cuisine for hundreds of years already by the time Archibald Clark West "discovered" them at the Disneyland Frito-Lay restaurant. I can only guess that despite being an executive for Frito-Lay, he had never actually been to a real Mexican restaurant before.
In the old days, simply the whole tortilla was fried; it wasn't until the 1940s that cutting them up into triangles first became popularized. (And even that innovation happened two decades before the Dorito).
Why is it that people with decision-making power are often the least-aware people in any organization? Posted by: zombie at May 07, 2014 01:58 AM (mizYg) Hide posts from (mizYg)
There's more of a problem than that. Casa de Fritos had to have come after Fritos (which later merged with Lay's potato chips to become Frito-Lay). And Fritos were fried course-ground corn meal (see http://tinyurl.com/ylzg67x ). So how much demand would there have been at Casa de Fritos to have yet another type of chip?

Most of my blood draws have been for donations.
It doesn't bother me.
The staff occasionally give me an odd sidelong look when I tell them,
"Look here, this blood is _high octane_. This isn't just O positive, it's OMG positive positive. You can't transfuse it into just anyone. It'll fuck up their shit. Their eyeballs will spin like a cheap slot machine. They won't sleep for weeks. They'll be up on the roof talking to crows."
They never listen. Well, they were warned.

The growth on my hand I had removed last year was a real test. The procedure was excision and cauterization with a little fleshy arc welder kind of thing. The hard part was the Novocaine injection near the base of my index and middle fingers of my right hand, near the growth's location. (One of these: http://tinyurl.com/mmjqk6d ) So I kept my my right arm completely still while expressing my discomfort with the left.
Closest I've ever come to a gom jabbar.

As always, decontaminate, disinfect and debride _thoroughly_ before closing up a serious open wound.
Last time we were talking about this, someone mentioned packing the wound with a mixture of sugar saturated with Betadine, which they said was a special forces medical trick.
I've got the special forces improvised field medicine handbook on the shelf here, the late 1980s version, and it doesn't mention sugar as a wound packing agent, but on researching the idea, it does seem to be sensible and well justified.

Back when I still had pets, I was buying online thru an Australian pet meds site with no scrip and a price about 1/2 of going thru the vet. Yes, the stuff had Aussie origin labels and it was the same name brand product.
And yes, it worked so it wasn't counterfeit. Sadly, I no longer remember the site name. Lead time was about 4 weeks though.

Time was, some rat bastard who did this sort of thing would be horsewhipped by his neighbors first, then turned over to the police. In SF today, they'd probably have a circle-jerk in his honor.
Incidentally, I've seen a dog poisoned by strychnine. I spent a summer break from college at my gf's dad's place -- up in the canyons of Tujunga. They had three dogs, and I was the one who noticed that one was acting very strangely. They bundled the dog up and hauled ass to the vet, but it was too late.

They used to have a "do your own thing" vibe in SF -- even after I moved up here in 1986. But it's now "depravity to stick it to the squares" 24/7/365. It isn't fun, it isn't pretty, it doesn't amuse, and I'm not sympathetic. There comes a point where you cannot disguise evil with goofy eccentricity.
The same thing could be said about the Choom Gang -- they were "funny". And then our current President's first political campaign was launched from the couch of someone who famously said, "Dig it, first they killed those pigs, then they ate dinner in the same room with them, then they even shoved a fork into a victim's stomach. Wild!". [ http://tinyurl.com/7vtzb ]
