I Got Another Good Boy

Proud of the young man, I am.

All of 13 years old and he took to wrenching like a duck to water.

The kid as almost as big as I am at 13 and already wears size 12 shoes.

Scary.

I found a pair of coveralls that was a bit too big for him and we went to town .
Tearing the front of the motor apart, yanking the radiator, fan, belts, crank pulley and all to yank out the front crank seal and put it all back together.

He kind of petered out towards the end but he did awesome and took direction to the Tee.

Yeah, his name is Bobby and I am damn proud of him today.

A typical teenager, he tends to smart off but I figure some positive reinforcement will go a lot farther than threatening to beat his ass.
Besides, the boy has a natural talent which I am going to out of my way to encourage.

Speaking of talent, this kid will amaze you with his Yo Yo's. I am serious.
He pay's 80 bucks apiece for them and watches youtubes and is absolutely amazing at the tricks he can do.

If he stays serious about this much longer, he will make money.

For you lady folks, he looks just like that little Justin Beiber.
This kid is going to have to beat the little girls away with a stick in a couple years.

He never really had a Dad and I just came along but my other boy had the same situation and I could bust a gut, I am so proud of that guy.The young man is well on his way to being a stand up individual.
Speaking of which, I am going to be a Ornery Fucking Grandpa again.

Some time in March.

Thankfully, I have the New Wife to keep track of all these Birthdays and shit.

Y'all have a nice day and thanks fer stopping by.

Update;
I forgot to mention that of course I had to bust another knuckle while I was at it.
Pulling on a wrench and it slipped off.
I cut the piss out my ring finger on the back side right at the first joint below the nail on my right hand against the sheet metal for the core support.
It smarts a bit this morning.

Ten Years After

Jesus Christ, they are kicking a dead horse like their lives depend on it.

I am already sick, to fucking death, of the media orgy already.
I even listened to some jack ass fucking mental health asshole expert while I was stuck in a five mile long traffic jam trying to explain how we need to speak the truth to wee little young ones about what happened on that day, before they were even born.

Listen up here folks.
I am well aware that those fuckers scored a touch down when we weren't looking and that several thousand people lost their lives and that it really fucked up thousands of families.
I wasn't there but I watched it as it happened.
My utmost sympathies go out to those who were affected by this atrocity.

The effects can still be felt.
What really pisses me off is these media whores trying to make a buck off of this travesty.

Scumbags and douchebags, every mother fucking one of them.

Now we have this "Credible Threat" they are spouting for the anniversary.

Cough it up motherfucker.

We have already lost every freedom imaginable because some scaredy cats in government positions and some freakazoids with authoritarian agendas think they know what is best for us "Sheeple"

I have news for you sonsabitches, we, as a people, ain't afraid of shit.

Bring your shit and if we find you, you are a dead motherfucker, period.

So, as this anniversary of the single worst attack this country has ever sustained on our own soil nears.
Remember those innocents who's lives were lost, also remember we have inflicted that to other countries tenfold.

We are not all that and a bag of chips.
We are human and we die just like every other citizen of any other country.

The only thing that makes us different is the whore mongering assholes amongst us who want to make a buck off of other peoples misery and suffering and business is good for them.

God Damn their souls to Hell.


Here is some other Ten Years After, as it should have been.


My condolences to the families of the victims of 9/11/ 2001.
I won't ever forget either.

The Fourth of July

Once again we have managed to survive another year since the anniversary of the Declaration of our Independence from Mother England was announced.

Today, we struggle to recognize what has become of such a remarkable struggle for our independence.

Our Bill of Rights has been gutted and our government regularly conducts business in direct violation of the Constitution that each and every public servant has sworn to uphold.

Illegal search and seizure is an everyday occurrence thousands of times a day.

We are not secure in our effects and papers, our very own government illegally spies on it's own citizens with impunity and complete confidence that there will be no legal ramifications.

Our Supreme Court of the land has given Carte Blanche to the business interests in this country when it comes to host of issues critical to the election of our representatives clear to and including allowing corporations with unlimited funds to spend those unlimited funds to literally buy legislation and the politicians who craft them with impunity.

Those same politicians are now sitting on their hands as we find the housing crisis is rife with fraudulent mortgages and millions of these fraudulent mortgages have thrown into question just who actually owns the title to these homes and people are being thrown out in the street.

Yet there is no rush to investigate and prosecute this criminal activity.


None.

Just as no one is currently sitting in a prison cell over the massive fraud and manipulation of our banking industry which nearly collapsed the entire world economy.

Our economy is in shambles and our elected officials are now playing a dangerous game of chicken over raising our debt ceiling, for the first time in our history, they are willing to completely destroy our fragile economy for political reasons.

Unemployment is still over nine percent and wages have stagnated for the last forty years, unless you happen to be in the top one percentile, which control twenty five percent of the assets in this country.

I sincerely hope everyone reading this has reasons to celebrate this day and gets to spend some quality time with friends and relatives.
BBQ is the order of the day for millions of Americans and the requisite fireworks display later this evening.

Our American Revolution is but a distant memory but we still have much work to do to right the wrongs that have come to dominate our existence as the greatest country on the planet.

I have been ranting and railing about the injustices I perceive to be thrust upon us by the very people who are supposed to have our best interests at heart for the last six years and I will not let these domestic atrocities go unnoticed and unspoken as long as I am able.

I am proud to say that there are hundreds of thousands, even millions of my fellow Americans that feel the same and call out misdeeds when they are exposed.

Accountability is a word that needs to be stressed repeatedly until it becomes a mantra.

The avarice and greed running rampant in our hallowed halls needs to be rooted out and exterminated if we are to survive as a viable country lest we become a nation of serfs doing the bidding of a select few who control who and what we see, hear, eat and drink and how we communicate amongst ourselves.

Have a safe and Happy Fourth folks.

For Those Of You Who Hate Racing

Because "All  they do is turn left", watch it in a mirror for a few laps, then all they do is turn right.

Your moment of Zen for the day.

Happy New Year

Thanks fer stopping by. I hope to piss off a lot more people in the coming year, share the parts of my life that I can and at the very least, not be boring.

Keep after the motherfuckers, they can't stand the sunlight.

Fuck them VERY much.
You know damn good and well who I am talking about and so do they.

DADT Passed

Good.

Now get back to the fucking economy.

I could give a rats ass who ya love, as long as ya love 'em.

Ain't none of my business.

Me and the GF went a few rounds over this, she being the Right Winger she is and me being me.
I'll spare ya the details, everyone has their own opinion.
That's what makes this country great.

This isn't the panacea the gays were wanting, sorry about that. I didn't want the 2 percent of the richest motherfuckers in this country getting that little tiny tax break they have been enjoying either.

I am sure this will be revisited soon.

Like I said, I could give a fuck.

There will be repercussions I am sure.

The DREAM act went down the tubes.


These fucking Republicans are starting to confuse me. All of a sudden the Gays are OK but we still hate the Mexicans?

They fucking hate everyone.
Except you beautiful rich sonsabitches, even if you are married to one of the ugliest old white bitches you have ever laid eyes on.

Can't have any of this by God,

Can't have any of this by God either,

But we as sure as fuck can have a whole world full of this shit every, mother fucking day.

Fuck You,you dirty, rotten, hypocritical fucking bastards.

The King Of Wyoming

45% of CNN readers are idiots (well...53099 of 'em , anyway).

BUWAHAHAHA! The US can beat anybody? They needed a complete gift from Robert Green, who has since been demoted from goalkeeper to benchwarmer, to manage a tie with England. They tied Slovenia. And they barely managed to beat Algeria.

Landon Donovan didn't score against Algeria until injury time. For you non-football people, the referee keeps the official time and has two watches...one for the 90 minutes of official game time (that does not stop) and one for how much time it takes for injuries and substitutions and such. At the end of the 90 minutes he adds the second clock onto the game so it lasts as close to a real 90 as possible. By the laws of the game he can add anywhere from one to four minutes of extra time.

So Landon Donovan (if he's the best we can do then we're fucked, by the way) thinks that being gifted the group by England's suckage means they can beat anybody?

Really, Landon? Really? Dude...I want some of what YOU'RE smokin'. That's gotta be some gnarly shit. Being literally handed a tie and managing a last gasp score against a team ranked 30th in the world somehow translates into you being able to beat Brazil or Argentina or Germany or Spain or Portugal or the Netherlands?

Yeah, sure...okay Landon. Whatever you say. And I'm the King Of Wyoming.

They do have a relatively easy path to the semi-final and anything can happen but when you're playing Brazil (IF you get there) it won't.

spongebobcrackwhore

p.s. - I actually am the King Of Wyoming. Every time I'm there we hold a vote and since I'm the only one around for miles I get re-elected every time.

Really that bad...or simply evolving?

This is a pretty interesting article about some relatively big companies that are on the brink of failure because they've neglected to adapt their business models to current market demands and/or put themselves so far in the hole that they can't dig out.

After my last godless post somebody commented that they were shocked I believe in science and evolution. I do. The evidence is solid enough to be irrefutable except by idiots with their own opposite agenda to push. I like what the author Tom Robbins said. "If there is a God he shot his wad on the creation". Then he rolled over and has been napping ever since.

I'm not so sure that the current economic upheaval is quite the Armageddon that some are claiming it to be. Industrialization, and the attendant economic power, began in Europe and then moved west to America and is now moving west again to China. Europe didn't disappear when America became a superpower, in spite of having to recover from two World Wars. Former world powers England, France and Germany had to adapt to lesser positions but they survived. It is worth noting, I think, that Spain and Portugal (who were already former world powers themselves by that time) mostly sat out the World Wars.

It is true that the current economic situation is bad. There's no fucking doubt about it. And I believe it'll get worse before it gets better. The current political situation is in the same boat. As OB noted in the post below the Republicans are in the process of eating one another alive. Yawn...no more so than the Democrats did when GWB was elected. And 40 years of what now? Make it 45 and the Democrats have had Johnson, Carter and Clinton so you can't claim an uninterrupted orgy of Conservatism. Democracy is only fun when your side wins. If there have been 40 years of anything it has been what the majority voted for.

That being said, I see no reason for this economic downturn to last indefinitely. Our businesses, large and small, will have to re-examine the way they do things. Our government will have to help them as best they can without putting the taxpayers (and subsequent generations) in debt up to our eyeballs. We the people will have to get over our credit addictions and stop living beyond our means. I firmly believe that we have put ourselves in this mess, all of us together...government, corporations and consumers alike.

The world is changing and we need to adapt. Evolutionary pressures that cause us to differentiate into separate species isn't an option if we intend to survive.

Happy New Year

Because this last one sucked monkey balls.

Thanks to all my readers and those who keep popping in looking for that fake picture of Sarah Palin I posted a few months ago, you would not believe how many hits I get over that thing and I swiped it from someone else!
Also, I would like to thank everybody who linked to my wee little blog of insanity, you know who ya are and so do I, Thanks.

Stay safe and party like there is no tomorrow, at the rate shit is happening lately, there might not be!

Are Ya Watching Any Of This Shit?

Pretty fucking mind blowing what I am seeing going on in DC, even that Dickhead Tweety just said
he has never seen anything like it.

Don't Be Caught Unawares

Get yer ass to the liquor store now to get your Goodbye Bush Bottle!

There is going to be a worldwide party when that asshole is gone on the 20th.

I know I am going to get hammered and that is going to be a sweet hangover.

Happy New Year

Things are looking grim but at the very least the thugs that have gotten us into this fucking disaster will soon be unemployed alongside the millions of other Americans who don't have the luxury of lavish government retirement benefits.
Fuckers.
Oh, and Fredo?
Fuck you, jerk, I hope you NEVER find a job, except for stamping license plates the rest of your natural life.


Once again, I would like to sincerely thank each and everyone who stops by here to read my rantings.

Here is to your health, wealth and future prosperity, Salud.

I think I am going to stay home tonight and let the amateurs duke it out.

For the late night partygoers,
AC/DC, You Shook Me All Night.

This Brings A Tear To My Eye

If this story and the implications of this little girl doing her homework on the same desk that President Abraham Lincoln signed the Emancipation Proclamation on doesn't touch you, there is something very, very wrong with you.

CHICAGO—President-elect Barack Obama and his wife, Michelle, said their young daughters will still have to do chores in the White House and won't get out of doing homework just because they're the president's children. In an interview with Barbara Walters, the Obamas said Sasha, 7, and Malia, 10, will have lives as normal as possible. That means helping out around the house.

"That was the first thing I said to some of the staff when I did my visit," Michelle Obama said. "I said, 'You know, we're going to have to set up some boundaries,' because they're going to need to be able to make their beds, and clean up."

The girls, who will be attending the prestigious Sidwell Friends School, also will be expected to do their homework as usual. Although, the president-elect said, Malia has her eye on a special spot to write important papers.

snip

Obama, who is known to be an avid reader of Lincoln history, said his daughter told him "I'm going to sit at that desk, because I'm thinking that will inspire big thoughts."

During the interview, Obama described the desk as being the spot where Lincoln signed the Gettysburg Address. While there is a copy of the address on display in that room, it actually was the Emancipation Proclamation freeing the slaves that Lincoln signed there.

How fucking awesome is that?


H/T to Fark for spreading the word.

The original story is at Boston.com.

Happy Turkey Day

From me to you.

There is much to be thankful for in these trying times, all you have to do is look a little for it.

Two Months

Sixty excrutiatingly long days and Bush is (Bad) History.
Fuck Christmas, January Twentieth is the day I am looking forward to. I want him gone more than mere words can express.

In the mean time, the count down continues.

Hell, everyone can't wait for his sorry ass to be gone.

Where The Hell Are My Nipple Clamps?

I think I am going to bust a nut!

I am so loving this lady I can't hardly contain myself!

Thank you Lord, for Rachel Maddow.

Thank You, Thank You, Thank You!

Rush Limbaugh must be shitting bricks right now.

Oh, and my special comment to the ignorant fuckheads who have a perpetual hard on against gay people?
This girl is smarter than the last ten generations of your family combined.

What Jill Said

Brilliant at Breakfast is one of the many Blogs I try to catch every day.
Jill has a post up that I find myself being in complete agreement with.

Do yerself a favor and go read the whole thing and see if you don't agree.
We have a long ways to go but our job as the governed is to be eternally vigilant and President elect Barack Obama is not going to get a free pass.

That is the only good thing to have come out of the Bush administration, thousands of Government observers, with their representatives on speed dial.

An Attorney General With Fangs

That's what I want to see.

Fuck this BiPartisan Bullshit, you cocksuckers ran wild over our Constitution and our civil rights.

You called us traitors for even QUESTIONING the abuses you piled up.
An illegal war?
Check.
Torture?
Check.
Illegal wire tapping?
Check.
The Politicalization of the Justice Department?
Check.
The disclosure of the identity of an under cover CIA operative for political payback?
Check.
The Billions of Cash Dollars that disappeared in Iraq?
Check.
No bid government contracts awarded to the company the Vice President of the United States still gets dividends from?
Check.

Willingly staying on vacation while an entire United States city drowns and not doing a mother fucking thing to alleviate the suffering of thousands of US citizens?
Check.

Guantanamo?
Check.

The Department of Homeland Security?
Check.

Presidential signing statements?
Check.

Gutting Habeus Corpus?
Check.

Disregarding Posse Comitatus?
Check.


Authorizing the kidnapping of United States citizens and their transfer to non NATO countries to be tortured into confessing crimes they did not commit?
Check.

Increasing the National debt to the tune of Trillions of dollars by begging money from countries not allied with our national interests?
Check.

Deregulating every possible business to help maximize profits and minimize safe guards?
Check.

The list is endless and it is so fucking shameful it should be a prime subject for investigation.
If you want a partial list of all of the transgressions of the Bush regime, let me point you to Hugh's List.

There are currently over Three Hundred and Eighty documented scandals that implicate the Bush administration.

Some of those include treason by it's definition.

I am sure that Mr. Obama is going to want to deal with the immediate problems at hand, which are legion.
I only hope that there are some who would try to not forget the recent past and decide that some rocks need to be turned over and some evil motherfuckers trying to hide under them would make great fishing bait.

Darth Cheney Endorses Grumpy McPlanecrasher

Three days before the election and DICK Cheney comes out and endorses McCain.

Stick a fork in the motherfucker, he's done.

Goodbye Stupie McFuckwit.

100 days to go before you are gone.

Motherfucker.
