Shiny Object

Oh give me a fucking break.


WASHINGTON (Reuters) – White House Chief of Staff William Daley said on Sunday the Obama administration was considering tapping into the U.S. strategic oil reserve as a way to help ease soaring oil prices.

Let's play fucky fuck again.
Holy Christ.
Is there anyone out there that hasn't been paying attention to this fuckery?
Good Lord, they are running out of tricks if they think I am going to swallow a hook stinking like shit the way this one is.

Where the fuck was this when oil was over a hundred and fifty fucking dollars a barrel?
Just now it is some kind of emergency?

Kiss my ass.


Within thirty fucking miles between towns, I saw gas go from $3.75 to $3.49 yesterday.

Diesel is over $4.10.

Is someone trying to shift the focus on the news again or is it just me?

Cutting Off Your Nose To Spite Your Face

Exactly who the fuck does this complete fucking jack ass think is going to be around to take care of the business of the State?

Playing some Russian Roulette are we?

Just wait until there isn't some lackey there to hand him his fucking latte in the morning.

The numbers do not lie, this stupid fucking asshole is going down eventually.There are already over a million people wanting to sign a recall petition.

The lawsuits are already starting to fly about denying the people access to the capitol building, the cops tackled a Representative to the ground trying to get into his own office and even before that, the cops gave him the middle finger for being an asshat.

Keep pushing the buttons asshole, you are going to be the bug on the windshield of Democracy.

Speaking of complete motherfucking assholes. I am pretty much speechless over this one.

If you didn't think Boehner was  complete fucking anal wart before, here ya go.
The last living vet from WW1 and Boner won't allow his body to be laid in State inside the Capitol.

Somebody needs to bitch slap that sonofabitch.

American Idol

Yeah, it's like that.

The only saving grace are a couple of little cuties , that don't suck.

Scuze me while I have a shot.

Oh shit, Nasty Girl reminded me of the little Chicken Hawk...

More funny shit.

This is a Win Win situation for me.

Neither one of these assholes have a snowballs chance in Hell of winning and now they have one less avenue for spewing their crazy assed bullshit.

Best yet, it is costing them money.

Two down.

Update, via TPM and my pals at Alternate Brain,

Fox news showing footage supposedly of union thugs in Wisconsin.

Like they said, since when is the last time you saw a Palm Tree in Wisconsin?

John Amato from Crooks and Liars is all over this and has filed a complaint ;

This is what's known as perpetrating a News Distortion on viewers and is strictly forbidden by the FCC. Fox News has done this type of distortion previously and I filed a complaint with the FCC and documented what they had done here.
Where to go to file a complaint:

News Distortion. The Commission often receives complaints concerning broadcast journalism, such as allegations that stations have aired inaccurate or one-sided news reports or comments, covered stories inadequately, or overly dramatized the events that they cover. For the reasons noted above, the Commission generally will not intervene in such cases because it would be inconsistent with the First Amendment to replace the journalistic judgment of licensees with our own. However, as public trustees, broadcast licensees may not intentionally distort the news: the FCC has stated that “rigging or slanting the news is a most heinous act against the public interest.”
The Commission will investigate a station for news distortion if it receives documented evidence of such rigging or slanting, such as testimony or other documentation, from individuals with direct personal knowledge that a licensee or its management engaged in the intentional falsification of the news. Of particular concern would be evidence of the direction to employees from station management to falsify the news. However, absent such a compelling showing, the Commission will not intervene.
For additional information about news distortion, see http://www.fcc.gov/cgb/consumerfacts/journalism.html.

Please submit a complaint against FOX News and The O'Reilly Factor
I'd also call into FOX News and ask them to stop distorting the news.

In The First Place

You stupid fucks in Wisconsin voted this fucking idiot in.
That is a fact.

Now ya don't like the fact that he is doing exactly what he said he was going to do and none of ya paid the fuck attention.

Let this be a lesson to those of you who hate Democrats at all costs, this is what it will cost you.

Yes there are no alternatives, if you stick the positive cable on the negative terminal and stick the negative  cable on the positive terminal at the same time, shit will blow up in your face.

You fucking asked for it, you got it.
They don't pass out safety glasses at the voting booths.

My personal inclination is to back unions and every day folks. After all, I grew up in a union household and have walked more than a few picket lines with personal threats against myself.
I am just pointing out you have some extremely stupid fucking neighbors of yours who are just now getting a dose of reality that doesn't give Glen Beck or Rush Limbaugh screaming their lies  any credibility, after all, they are union members themselves, fucking cocksuckers.

Hail Ronnie Reagan!
Motherfucker was a union  president and started the killing of unions with the Air Traffic Controllers.

When the police are behind the protesters, you have lost the game.

The war is over, most folks didn't even know there was one coming, let alone it has been raging,  more fucking idiots, it has been being waged for fifty fucking two hundred and fucking fifty years.

Oh, but the skirmishes still rage.

If you have one ounce of anger at what the fuck is going on in Wisconsin, support your local unions and support those hundred thousand and more protesters who are standing in the fucking freezing weather and those who are willing to go to jail while staying inside the capitol that the governor wants to be evacuated by the same police who are union members who said they won't do and actually slept inside in defiance of his orders.

Like someone complained earlier, it is starting to smell funky in there, the Capitol building, some folks have been in there for days now.

Someone else replied, that funky smell is the smell of Democracy.

Right fucking on.


Update ,

My comment to a comment,

Collective bargaining is exactly what it says it is, the many against a few.

People like me and you, joining together to strive together to make sure we can get a fair wage for a days work,have some sort of rules so we don't have to work in an environment full of poisons, have set hours that aren't subject to the whims of tyrannical employers and can contribute somewhat to a system that will guarantee a bit of security of self sustainability in the years after they can no longer work like a mule.
Public or private, that is all anyone in a union is asking for

The 70-year-old was found slumped over his steering wheel about noon Sunday.
For the crowd that gathered and the few that had seen him before, it was tough to watch with many afraid they had watched him slowly starve to death.

In front of a fucking Walmart for fucks sake.

Lucky Me

I haz someone who actually tolerates me.

I have been watching the shit unfold in Wisconsin, good on ya, even the cops said enough..
Ya make my heart swell that there are still some folks that have a sense of decency.
Watched most of the Oscars, she had her picks, I just looked at the tits.

Had a couple thrust in my face and after that, who gives a fuck?

Nom Nom Nom, hold still fer a second?

Have a nice day, none of us are taking home some little Golden little statue, I just got my feet rubbed and I can't tell ya what a fucking awesome little bit of love that  is.
Back rubs are way cool, get your feet  rubbed and you will find someone who loves ya.

I do back rubs that make some fellers jealous, foot rubs will make you get naked.

Thanks honey.

Take my word for it, the fucking politics can kiss my ass until later.

We seem to have many, many movies to watch later.
Believe this, she has never seen  The Big Lebowski.

Good Eats.

OK, I had to beg to get the ingredients for the sauce for this, but this is off the charts awesome good fucking grub!

We were watching The Food Channel a couple of weeks ago and some guy was telling how you can get two great steaks out of what they call a Seven Bone Roast and still have plenty left over to make a great soup.

True, I have cooked Seven Bone Roasts before and they have GREAT flavor.

Nasty made a stew one night, I made a vegetable beef soup the next , we mixed the two leftovers the next night and it was what she called, Sex Food, Orgasmic.

Now for the next level.

Get ya one of those Seven Bone Roasts, for as much meat and flavor that is in one of those, they are cheap.

Cut it in two unless you are trying to feed an entire clan.

Now, get ya a Nasty Girl and proceed to follow her directions.

Here it is, Introducing my Girlfriend in her very own first post;
Nasty Girl.

Take my word for it, I had to coersce her to give this up but it is sooooo, worth it.

Hey, it's me Nasty, Busted's better half. There really is no secret to this. It's just the seven bone roast rubbed with onion soup mix and put in the fridge to marinate and soak up all that lovely onion flavor. Then you just mix together a can or two of cream soup, whatever kind pumps your nads (I used cream of chicken) with a couple of packets of gravy mix any flavor (I used brown). Brown the roast in bacon grease a couple of minutes each side and put in a slow cooker along with the gravy and let it hang out in the fridge overnight. Slow cook the next day about four hour or until it is falling off the bone and Voila! You have tender, juicy, succulent meat with orgasmic flavor that you can serve however you want. Mashed potatoes as a side with a vegetable, or on a hoagie roll over a brat dipped in that awesome gravy. Yum! I'll let Busted finish the rest of this post. I need to go tend to my roast. Last night we had mashed potatoes and veggie. Tonight we are having it on a hoagie with some cottage cheese on the side. I hope you enjoy this as much as we do.

Me again. Let me tell ya,there wasn't a fucking thing left.
We had a couple of neighbor kids and their mom over and it was scarfed clean.

You can use this roast a lot of different ways but it is awesome however ya do it as long as ya prep it right first.

Thank you sweetie, and that is our Boy Scout moment of the week.

Enjoy.

Colder Than A Well Diggers Ass At Midnight

I had to laugh, I was worried about the snow here at Nasty Girls place, I think we had an inch and a half,

Back home got slammed with six inches.

It is supposed to get down to four to nine fucking degrees here tomorrow though, nothing to look forward too.
Lucky me, She has hot flashes all the time, bet your ass where I am going to be, snuggled right up next to her.

Riding The Storm Out

Fucking weather. It's supposed to snow like a bitch around here in the next day or two, get down to 17 fucking degrees and then be all butterflies and honeysuckle.

I bailed out of the Weasel den, told my guy that has been living in a fucking shed and taking care of my cat to move his ass in so he doesn't freeze to fucking death, made sure there was propane, groceries, some beer and smokes and bailed the hell out to come see the sweetie and make sure everything is OK here.
 I drove through two snow squalls, a hail storm and sleet for twenty miles.

What ever is supposed to hit the Weasel Den should be three times as bad here.

I made her go to the store with me so we had enough to get by with for four days at a minimum.

Riding the storm out baby's.

Never Forget

Class Warfare, 1.0

Not to mention War crimes, Katrina , four hundred and fifty fucking criminal investigations into his administration, Karl Rove, Dick fucking Cheney, Rumsfield, Condoleeza Rice, Judith Miller and a whole host of fucking assholes.

Extraordinary renditions, torture, Guantanamo, the Patriot act, , illegal wire taps,"It's just a Goddamn piece of paper", Iraq, Afghanistan, weapons of mass destruction, Anthrax,  nine fucking BILLION dollars that disappeared, and they are still walking around free.

What Part Of The First Amendment Am I Missing Here?

.Two words for ya. FUCK YOU!

For the life of me, I cannot fucking understand how any one in this country has allowed this shit to go unchallenged. I had no idea it was allowed in the first place.

I have news for you fucking monkeys, where ever I happen to be standing is a Free Speech Zone and you can suck my fucking dick, arrest me, suck my fucking dick again and suck my fucking dick.
I will damn well speak my mind any fucking PLACE I want to, at any fucking TIME I want to.

What fucking part of the very first mother fucking amendment of the Constitution of the United States of America do you not mother fucking understand?
Let me be absolutely fucking clear here so you assholes  don't fucking misunderstand what was plainly written, made into law and that you are fucking breaking that law,

`Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.

Does that say anywhere that you can't speak out loud in front of the Lincoln Memorial?

Fuck no, it doesn't., the fucking Lincoln Memorial wasn't fucking built yet! Some fuckwad decided he had the authority to change that though;

Under the legal code, the steps on the Lincoln Memorial are considered a “restricted” area to any kind of demonstrative activity. Demonstrators can, however, apply for a permit to use the platform area further down the stairs and a vending license to sell goods or entertainment.

Kiss my fucking ass!

I will say this one more time so you ignorant fucks can understand it,
 I have the absolute right to speak my mind  on every square foot of this United States, any time, any where.

Fuck Reagan and his "Free Speech Zones" and Fuck any cocksucking corporate fucking whore on the Supreme Court who tries to bend the the words that are written on the Document that founded this nation.

Let us review,


`Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.


What part of that do you not understand?

In Case There Was Any Doubt

The Fix Is In.

I Would Like To Introduce You To Someone

This is my Granddaughter, Anabelle.

She is a cute little thing and as you can imagine, at 5 years old, quite precocious as well.

She is just a little sweetie.
If you can spare the time, go vote for the guy's video, it is obvious he has some serious talent.

I'd vote for it even if it wasn't my little grandkid.

 Cute is cute and it is damn cute.


Kudos to Mr. J Lowe, a very well done video sir.

I am a baaaaaaad Grandpa, I need to go see the little darling here pretty quick, her Momma's Birthday is coming up. Beautiful woman and as sweet as apple pie.

I love her dearly and am very proud of her. She married one hell of a nice guy .
Hell, I am proud of all my kids,love all of them very much, they are all nice kids.
Good looking and polite, I must have done something right when I wasn't looking.

Good on yer Momma too, she had more to do with their up bringing than I did.

A tip of the hat to ya, Doris.

Do They Not Still Make Yardarms?

School Is Open For You Right Wingers Who Hate Unions.

Ever really paid any attention to what Collective Bargaining is?

Do you work an eight hour day, get time and a half for working more than eight hours a day?


Do you get paid Holidays off?

Vacation time?
Sick days?

If you said yes to any one of these questions and proclaim to hate unions, you can take a giant suck out of my ass.
Ever heard of Prevailing Wage jobs?
That would be because of the Davis Bacon Act.

Morons.

The Davis–Bacon Act of 1931 is a United States federal law which established the requirement for paying prevailing wages on public works projects. All federal government construction contracts, and most contracts for federally assisted construction over $2,000, must include provisions for paying workers on-site no less than the locally prevailing wages and benefits paid on similar projects.
The act is named after its sponsors, James J. Davis, a Senator from Pennsylvania and a former Secretary of Labor under three presidents, and Representative Robert L. Bacon of Long Island, New York. The Davis-Bacon act was passed by Congress and signed into law by President Herbert Hoover on March 3, 1931.^[1]

Google it.

This Bullshit in Wisconsin is nothing more than Class warfare and they want you working peons to bend your knees and take whatever they want to give you for wages and give up all the benefits that our Forefathers fought and bled for, trying to make a fucking living in shit hole factories.

I have lived in a Union Household my entire life. I have walked picket lines in freezing rain and stopped to give a box of donuts to strikers doing the same damn thing.

If you think unions are bad for this country then I would ask you to go to work for minimum wage, with no benefits and kiss my motherfucking ass.

You have absolutely no fucking idea what Union people have fought and died for so you can have a three day weekend called Labor Day.

Choke on a hot dog you ignorant fuck.

For you of the Tea Bagger  persuasion, notice this crowd is in Wisconsin and it is really cold there this time of year. Notice also, some folks from New Jersey decided to stop by and offer their support.

By the way, that 365 billion dollar shortfall he keeps crying about is actually 165 million and if he wasn't such a fucking Republican cunt, he could raise the taxes by  0.05 % and have a surplus.

Class warfare babies.
This is what you get when you vote for any God Damn Republican these days. If you haven't been paying attention, they have already won the Class war and you are now collateral damage.

Really. Big. Tits.

Bet me money.

TSA Source: Armed Agent Slips Past DFW Body Scanner

By GRANT STINCHFIELD

Updated 9:00 PM CST, Fri, Feb 18, 2011

An undercover TSA agent was able to get through security at Dallas/Fort Worth International Airport with a handgun during testing of the enhanced-imaging body scanners, according to a high-ranking, inside source at the Transportation Security Administration.

The source said the undercover agent carried a pistol in her undergarments when she put the body scanners to the test. The officer successfully made it through the airport's body scanners every time she tried, the source said.

Feel any safer yet?

OK, raise your hands, how many of you were expecting a picture of a young lady with giant breastesessesses?

Gotcha.

Oh, what the hell....

I loves me some lady parts.

Where In The Fuck Am I Today?

Holy shit, I actually woke up in my own bed for a change.

I haven't been here in the Weasel Den for more than twenty hours at a stretch in two fucking months.
Gotta get some propane, the cat is actualy glad to see me, I didn't get to bed until four fucking o'clock this morning and now I have to go watch the Daytona 500 with a bunch of my drunken friends.

I got to see my honey for a little bit last night, that was nice.

Hey,Busted's Bro?

Thank you bud.

I'll be back.

God damn, this computer is fucking pissing me off.

Slower than tar running down a telephone pole in August.

Still kicking

It's going to be a bit before I get up to speed.

The one thing I saw  made me proud as fuck, that stupid sonofabitch jackass motherfucker in Wisconsin just shit down his leg, made a bet his ass can't cover and woke up a whole lot of working people.
 When thirty thousand people come to protest some governor in the middle of winter?

Ya done fucked up pal.

Thirty thousand people coming out to protest in Wisconsin in the middle of winter would make a rock band jealous.

Good on ya folks.

Busy

Out of town, quite a ways out of town, as a matter of fact.

Go see what Just An Earthbound Misfit has to say,it's always worth a read.

Finally, We Meet Sarah Palins Speech Writer

Fun is fun, I certainly hope this lady is OK.

We already know there ain't no hope for Caribou Barbie.

Congratulations!!

OMFG!

I just got slammed.
Blind sided, jaw droppingly surprised and tickled pink to the point of a lobster tint.

Ladies and gentlemen, I am proud to announce the marriage of two of the most awesome people, Driftglass and  Blue Gal.

I am just stunned!



I am also so happy for them !!

There will be a follow up to this when I finally get my jaw up off the floor.

The little shits spilled the beans on their weekly Pod cast.

Two of the most influential Left Wingers hooking up, watch out, this is going to be good for them and good for us.

My best to you both.

I love that guitar, that thing is fucking cool.

Watching A Government Being Toppled

Typical American Idiot I am, I kinda have  a short attention span, what can I say?

Earlier, I waited for good old boy Mubarak's speech, figuring he would finally see the hand writing on the wall and step down.
Needless to say, me, the CIA and the President , along with a few million Egyptians got a rude surprise.

The rumors are flying, I watched him and his asshole , former torture in chief for the US in the region and the current VP, something Soleimin, talk down their noses at the rabble rousers who have been demonstrating since January 25th and who have been striking en mass and shutting down their economy and he told them to STFU and go home and get their peon asses back to work got met with a resounding FUCK YOU.

If you ever wanted to see what SHTF is, keep an eye out to what is happening over there.

So far, the military has done a good job of staying on the sidelines and not opening up with tanks and machine guns, which BTW, are ours.

The last I saw, the crowds were throwing shoes at his images on the big screens, the ultimate insult and marching towards the National Television headquarters and the Presidential Palace.

Of course, Mubarak ain't that stupid, he is no where near that sonofabitch and neither is his (our) number two guy.

The real shit hitting the fan is going to be tomorrow.

That is when a whole buttload of pissed off Egyptians who have been straddling the fence decide they have had enough.
The key question is , and always will be, is what is the military going to do in response?

I saw the size of the crowds that were there already, I can reasonably expect that to surge by at least a third, as the people can get there.

One reporter from CNN who was there started interviewing some of the people near him and asked them what they thought of the speech and a couple of quotes struck me as quite the views of a people who are desiring a Democracy like we used to have before we became so complacent, fat, stupid and lazy.

“Death or freedom, we will have freedom”.
One protesters comment when asked his opinion.
“We just want him to leave in peace, no more blood shed”.

Pay attention to the next one, it just, might, sound a little familiar to someone over thirty years old.

” Give me liberty or give me death”.

That's right, that was one random Egyptian in the crowds reaction.

 Where have I heard that before?

Kind Of Hard To Vote When You Are Dead

Dude, take my advice and quit listening to Cheney's fucking energy task force, those rotten sonsabitches at BP and anyone else who is trying to talk you into cutting off emergency funding for heating supplements.

The timing on this is so fucking tone deaf it boggles my fucking mind.

Not only has there been record cold, snow storms and freezing in the North, Texas, The Midwest and every where else, there is more coming!

You have got to be fucking kidding me!

For once, I am almost without words.

Do this at your own peril. When people start freezing to death in sizeable numbers, it is coming home to roost on your doorstep, fucking idiot.

One term President would be the best fucking thing to happen to you.

Christ.

Under The Weather

I caught some kind of fucking head/chest cold the other day and it is just kicking my ass.

Do a quick mental rundown of all the symptoms in a typical Nyquil commercial and ya pretty much know how I feel, including a wicked sinus headache that won't go away.
As you can imagine, blogging isn't real high on the list of things I feel like doing right now.

See ya later.

Interesting

One thing that really sucks about living on the Left Coast is that a lot of shit in the business world has already happened while I am still dreaming of nubiles with large breasts.
That and Presidential elections that get called before our fucking polls are even closed. That one pisses me off.

So, to my utter amazement, I see my friend Jill reporting this morning that AOL has purchased The Huffington Post empire for three hundred and some fucking million dollars and put Arianna herself in charge of a bunch of shit.

I really like Jill's take on this, go read some Brilliant At Breakfast for her take.

As for me, I read Huffpo every day, looking for the latest news on what is going on. My bitch with them is they don't update the fucker often enough.

As for AOL, I can't believe they are still in business.

Way back in the day, when I finally got a computer that could connect to the internet, it was through AOL.

I had so many fucking dealings with their idiots in tech support, I finally got pissed off and wrote their phone number in permanent ink across the top of my monitor.True story.

Thanks Christina

Stupid bitch just fucked up the National Anthem so bad, my girlfriend noticed, I noticed it and her sister texted her to say she did too, immediately.

Just show us your tits idiot.
We could use another National outcry over a nipple.It seems to keep some people busy for a LOOOOOONG damn time.

I don't know about anyone else but just sing the fucking song and leave that "interpretation" shit at home.
Fuck.
Beer run in 3, 2, 1,

I could give a shit who wins this Superbowl but FUCK the Steelers.

Kinda lets ya know who I am rooting for, the beer dude in the stands.

My all time favorite Super Bowl commercial.

Clever. No mention of the specials at Wong Lee's Chinese restaurant all week.

I Am Remiss In My Duties

It is Blogroll Amnesty Weekend.

God rest his soul, Al had a wicked sense of humor and was a decent human being.
We can all thank our lucky stars him and Skippy hooked up.

This is the deal,
If youwant to be added to my Blogroll, just ask.Absolutely, DO NOT say that no one has less traffic than you.
I have had so many damn spammers asking in the last couple months, this is your chance.

For the rest of us, who have been so blessed, just link to five other blogs who don't have as many hits as you do,.

OK, down to the business,
.
This is actually harder than you think.
There are some damn nice folks out there.

Hey, I keep hearing that Bloggers are soooo past their expiration dates.

My word to you?
Fuck off.
There are a lot of neat people out there and I spend most of my time online surfing around and finding them.

I used to spend a  great deal of my time screaming into the void about the (insert profane words here) about our political environment.

Not this time.

Like them or not, here are my picks for this year.

Sci Fi Chick is a down home gal trying her best to get by and I can tell ya, I likes her.
Smooch girl.

Treesong is another sweetheart.
Normally she stays away from politics but this nice lady has been through more hard times in the last year than you can shake a stick at. Go back and read all the crap she has been through and thank your lucky stars she doesn't live next to ya.
She will put ya straight.
 Smooch to you honey.

OK, you want to meet a nice guy?

The Hermit is a sweet heart, I can't believe he doesn't have some wimmins beating his door down.

Patrice, on the other hand, is a hoot.
I might be a left wing zealot but I have an open mind and this lady just kicks my ass.

Good on ya sweetie.

I swear, this lady kicks my ass when it comes to traffic. but if you want to read some good writing, she is off the charts and I know damn good and well you who come here have never heard of her.

Seriously,Brigid  writes things that will yank your heart.

Bonus round, she has some killer recipes too.

Don't be hating on me for linking to you.

Lastly but not leastly, I get the biggest kick out of this retired gentleman who is living in a trailer and moving around when the weather gets too crappy.

Old fat Man Adventures, he just has toooooo much fun.

There are hundreds of blogs that I try to get around to reading when I can,  Blue Gal is all over what the hell is going on.

Jill,  My pals Fixer and Gordon, Fearguth, soo many more I read every day, who could forget Earth Bound Misfit and my buddy One Fly.

Let me not forget a couple of others, my pal Physioprof and my day would not be complete without a trip to see Driftglass.

Hey, we are all in this together and I could be here all night linking to folks I read.
The deal is, link to folks that have interesting things to say that no one knows are out there.

There are millions of us out there.

One last thing, Thank You Skippy, you are the man.

Busy Day

Been running around all damn day, put a couple hundred miles on the GF's car today.
An hour and a half one way, a half hour over here, stop, run around some more, an hour and a half back, watch some television and get back in the fucking car again and run around some more.

Done.

Got a couple movies, some tacos and a bottle, a few beers and it will be lights out. I will be nice and not say anything about one of the side trips, I will say, someone is going to sleep with a smile on their face tonight.

Maybe something to say tomorrow, as of now, good night.

\Oh yeah, I almost forgot, this weekend is Blog roll Amnesty Day. Go see Skippy, I will put up a post and more links tomorrow.

Off To Never Never Land

It's time for me to drag my sorry ass out of here and head back to the Weasel Den.

I imagine the fucking cat will be glad to see me, I will be bringing a new bag of cat food home.
Then to get propane, if the joint is still there.
I imagine the place is colder than a well diggers ass at midnite, been gone  a fucking week.

Nevermind, Someone just showed me some naughty parts and I forgot what the fuck I was talking about.

The cat will live another day, I made sure she had plenty of grub and at least two neighbors to let her in and out.
Speaking of in and out, ummm, talk to ya later.

What's That Ya Say?

I swear, this cat sounds like it is talking, it is certainly pissed off too.

The lady talking sounds to be eastern European or possibly Russian but that cat is talking a universal language, quit fucking with me!



Fuckin' hilarious and the demon eyes just make it all that much better.


H/T Lolcats.

Off To Do Laundry

I would like to thank everyone who stopped by to wish me a happy birthday, that was nice of ya.

I had a fairly relaxed birthday, a bunch of company showed up out of the blue and my girl friends friend made hamburgers and such for every one, that was damn nice of her.

I am in full recuperation mode and am getting ready to head out with the honey and go do laundry and grocery shopping.

In the mean time, the shit is still hitting the fan in Egypt and even the King of Jordan has seen the writing on the wall and replaced his government in response to growing unrest over food prices.

Note that last bit, food prices, you are going to see more and more unrest over food prices.
That is because those same jerks who contributed to our current financial meltdown have decided to treat food the same way they do car sales.

Betting on this and that, buying futures up like candy and driving the final price of food up. Look around ya, the price of cotton is up over ninety fucking percent, one guy, ONE, bought up almost all of the cocoa futures. Bet money, little Ms.Swiss Miss, is going to have a sore ass here in the future.

Pay attention folks, things aren't just going to be ugly in the Middle east, here shortly, the mid west is going to chiming in  too.

I keep arguing trying to persuade my girl friend into getting some grub put away for a little buffer but she is a hard headed Norse women and says she has to go into town several times a week any way and has no place for storage.

I got your hard headed and raise ya by an Irishman......

Another Trip Around The Sun

51 years old today and just as fucking ornery as ever.

See ya later.

Taking A Break

I'm at Nasty Girls, watching movies.

I have been kind of keeping an eye on the shit storm going on in the Middle East but not real close.

That is some fucked up shit and that nasty little trick of shutting off the internet pissed off a whole lot of people who had nothing to do with the protests.

Smooth move, fuck heads, now ya pissed off everyone.

Pay attention to what is going on over there and remember, they don't even have a Second Amendment. Of course, they don't really need it.
They can buy everything from an AK 47 to a fucking rocket launcher if they have the dough.

Entire governments are getting their asses handed to them.
It is not without blood shed and violence but it is not anything near what it could be.

Business As Usual

John Boehner To Give Keynote Address At Annual Insurance Lobbyists Summit


They don't even try to hide it anymore.
 

House Speaker John Boehner (R-Ohio) has been booked to deliver the keynote address at the annual conference of the Independent Insurance Agents & Brokers of America, a group that will hold powerful sway over lobbying efforts regarding health care and regulatory reform on Capitol Hill this year.

Like I said....

According to a press release from the IIABA:

Speaker Boehner will be a key note speaker at the legislative conference breakfast which occurs just prior to the association’s annual Big “I” Day on Capitol Hill. Every year more than a thousand agents and brokers visit Capitol Hill offices to lobby members of the House, Senate and their staffs on issues that directly impact independent agents and consumers.




“The Big ‘I’ is honored that during such a pivotal year, Speaker of the House John Boehner (R-Ohio) will be kicking off our annual agent pilgrimage to Capitol Hill,” says Robert A. Rusbuldt, Big “I” president and CEO. “We’re looking forward to hearing his insights on the implementation of the new health care law, tax and spending issues, financial services regulation and other important topics facing our members, their businesses and the American economy.”

"Speaker Boehner has been a longtime friend of our small business owners in his home state of Ohio and, as a former small business person himself, can provide an important perspective our members will appreciate," says Charles E. Symington, Jr., Big "I" senior vice president for government affairs. The Speaker's focused commitment to removing government barriers in order to create more jobs and economic growth go hand-in-hand with many of the Big 'I's' goals."

No word on whether he will be passing out checks on the floor of the House from lobbyists like he did with the Big tobacco racket years ago.

The IIABA has been a staunch opponent of President Obama's health reform law, and supports House Republicans' misguided attempt to repeal it. The group's PAC spent nearly $2 million in the 2010 election cycle alone, including a $10,000 donation to Boehner.

Emphasis mine.

Conflict of interest much?

Like I said, they don't even try to hide this shit anymore. Used to be it was done in smoke filled dark rooms where not every Tom, Dick And Alvin could see what was going on, now, it's a big middle finger and wink wink, in broad daylight.


Is it me, or isn't he supposed to be

on our side?

BWAAAAHAHAHAHAHAAAA!

I just made a funny.

Fuck You Boehner.

Scumbag.

This is your new Speaker of the House folks, you asked for it, you got it.

H/T Huffpo

Guess Who Blinked First

Thay's right, smooth talker, you be playing with fire at this point in history if you think fucking with Social Security is a good thing.

Someone finally convinced you to quit listening to those country raping bastards long enough to see what would be coming down the pike if you had.

We all know SS has absolutely nothing to do with the budget and in fact, would have a giant surplus if the politicians hadn't been able to steal buttloads of money from it in the past.

Look elsewhere young man, for your magic unicorn feed to fix the fucked up economy, this place be full of danger for you.

The Pushback Begins

Ya gotta love that crazy fucker Jesse Ventura.

Good on ya dude.

Oh, you SO want to click on that link, he is sueing the DHS and the TSA over their Pat Down bullshit.

I gotta say though, dude, lighten up on that Hair Care For Men shit. Christ, you are older than I am and I am pretty much all white haired, what I have left.


Of course, this ,on the other hand, is just symbolic at this point but it reinforces what we were screaming about back in the Bush administration, that they were politicizing every chance they got during business hours in Federal buildings.

Then we have the matter of those crooked fucking banksters who started this whole economic melt down. They are about to get their assholes examined up close and personal. Civil suits? Are you fucking kidding me? These people need to go to fucking jail and have every fucking dime they own returned back into the general fund, plus immense fines.

Then we have this, two of our citizens are in jail, facing fifteen years apiece for audio recording the police under illegal eavesdropping laws, I love this quote from some asshole,

"Mr. Donahue added that allowing the audio recording of police officers while performing their duty “can affect how an officer does his job on the street.”

That's right you fucking asshole. it might just make them just a little bit recalcitrant to whip out that tazer on some 75 year old lady, beat the snot out of some guy they decided they don't like or maybe think twice about breaking a mop handle up somebodies ass or fire seventy plus shots at unarmed men.

All of which have been documented, thank you.

Go back and read that link, it will piss ya off..

Hey, if it's good for the goose, it's good for the gander.
Why should the Government be able to violate the fourth amendment without some push back?
I can't think of anything, except that bullshit canard they always pull out of their ass about " National Security",
 which is still fucking bullshit.
That fourth amendment was put on paper and signed into law for a goddamn good reason, to prevent exactly what the fuck has been going on for the last ten fucking years.

Still reading my Emails boys?
 That's what I am talking about.

The one thing the poor lady has going on in her favor is this little blurb, buried at the end of the article;

The investigators discovered that she was recording them and she was arrested and charged with two counts of eavesdropping, Mr. Johnson said. But he added that the law contains a crucial exception. If citizens have “reasonable suspicion” that a crime is about to be committed against them, they may obtain evidence by recording it.

I hope she sues them into bankruptcy.

As they like to say, "make an example out of them".

Then we have this little matter, which should be settled law after all these years but the PTB just gotta keep pushing the boundaries.
In no way do I condone the perps alleged actions but this is a major case and will have far reaching implications down the road.

WASHINGTON — The Supreme Court will consider whether investigators must give a jail inmate his Miranda rights before questioning him on matters unrelated to what landed him behind bars.
The justices on Monday said they will hear Michigan's appeal of a court ruling in favor of Randall Fields, who acknowledged to sheriff's deputies that he had sexual contact with a minor. The admission took place during an interview in the same building where Fields was jailed on unrelated charges.
The deputies never advised Fields he could be silent or have a lawyer, hallmarks of the Miranda warning for criminal suspects. They did tell him he could leave when he wanted.

So, take heart fellow citizens, the government has it's hands full with people who are fed the fuck up with the over reach they have been pulling.

 I am not going to be any kind of Pollyana and tell you all is well, I am just pointing out that they are getting their hands slapped here and there, as it should be.

The Bush administration opened up Pandora's box after 9/11 and we are still trying to close the damn thing.

Never say die.

Rat Bastard Ruled Ineligible To Run

Lol!

This made my fucking day!

That skeezeball Rahm Emmanuel has been found to be ineligible to run for Mayor of Chicago because he hasn't lived there for at least a year.,

Good.

Fucking bastard.

The people of Chicago have one less crooked politician to choose from.

Hey Rahm?

Fuck you very much, from a member of the Professional Left.

Jackass.

DOH!!

Sweet Jesus, I have a love hate relationship with computers.

After bringing this one back to life and all the bullshit I have dealt with the last 24 hours, my mind is just that little bit more fried than it was yesterday.

For the life of me, I could not figure out why the thing looked like it was in safe Mode.
You know, everything is grainy looking, the colors are all fucked up and pictures are almost so pixelated and fucked up you can't even recognize what the hell you are looking at kind of shit.

I have just spent HOURS trying to fix that.  Google this, Google that, Try "Help", try tools, fuck around and fuck around until I finally had a thought.

Sure as shit too.

Don't ask me how, I could not tell you why either.

Somehow, this fucker decided to go back to a basic 8 bit color scheme for the monitor, instead of the 32 bit.

Bingo, problem solved.

After six beers and a trip to the store for more smokes at four fucking thirty in the morning.

Ain't modern technology wonderful?

Great, now the batteries in my mouse are dying.

AAAAAAAAUUUUUUUGGGGGHHHHHHH!!!!!

Update;

Double plus goodness and bonus rounds, I see every time I shut this fucking thing down and restart it, I get to go back in and change the color setting.

Dirty. fucking. son. of. a. bitch!

I did manage to stay awake long enough to go get some fucking batteries though, one less irritant.

FUBAR

I don't know how it happened but my normal computer took a major shit last night.
I surfed the web, checked my mail, everything was cool. I got off the web and decided I would do a computer scan while I snoozed. It takes a while and I figured it could do it's thing while I sawed logs.

Got up this morning and see a fucking warning about some fucking infected file. I clicked out of that and my monitor lit up like a fucking pinball machine with twenty extra games.

Can you say FUBAR?
 Fucked Up Beyond All Recognition?
It won't let me do a God Damn thing.
No restore, no internet, no Windows, Croaked.

I said Fuck it and turned it off, apparently there are several of the little nasties battling each other over control of my hard drive.

Dirty fucking sonsabitches.

In my eyes, if there was ever a reason for Capitol Punishment, hackers like these would be first up against the wall.
Pissed off? Oh, you fucking betcha I am pissed off.
So, I went to town and cooled my heels, made a few phone calls and I am still fucked.

I came home, unplugged the fucking thing, swapped it out for my old one, and it fucked me too!

Three mother fucking hours I have been dicking with this cocksucker.

I believe it is currently in Safe Mode because the colors are all fucked up and the borders are all the wrong color.

Can anyone tell me what the fuck System Idle Process is?
It locks this motherfucker up tighter than a drum. It has something to do with Windows and you can't kill it. It takes up 99% of my processor activity according to Task Manager but like I said, ya can't turn it off.

I had to reboot the fucker several times, delete and reinstall (SPIT!) Verizon twice and I just now got online at what. 2 o'clock in the fucking morning?

I have been fucking with this shit since 9 P.M..

My uncle seems to have too many computers laying around, I do believe I will ask him to donate one to the cause , at least until I can find an electronic sledge hammer to kill some fucking viruses with.

I think this pretty much sums up my feelings at this point.



Seek and Destroy.

My Heart Bleeds

Sucks to be on the other side, eh boys?

Assholes.


Read it and weep for the Jack Booted thugs caught up in their own system.

One item of note that caught my eye was that good old Fitz is the guy that nailed all these fuckers.
 You might recall Patrick Fitzgerald as the prosecuting attorney in the Plame case who got fucked by Scooter Libbey lying his ass of protecting that living dead motherfucker Darth Cheney and was subsequently gifted out of prison by Stupie McFuckwit.

Oh yes,some of us don't forget about treason, you sonsabitches.

Been Quite Busy

This post deleted by the author as it was a bit too personal.
I had typed quite the cathartic missive but the only one it made feel better was me, and not by a whole lot.

TMI about family issues.

Granny is alive and well and went to an extended care facility this afternoon.

The damn truck started up and ran without missing a beat after crapping all over it's self the other night, I didn't even open the hood to look.

It must have sucked up a gulp of water.

I went to a benefit for Alzheimers that my brothers sweetheart of a girl friend busts her ass off for every year,

They went to the coast and got 150 Dungeoness crabs for a big feed and last I heard there were less than 30 left.

Yumm!

I could eat four of those bad boys by myself.
There isn't a crab out there that beats one of those, I don't give a shit what you bring, I have tried them all.
Snow crab, King crab, Blue crab, Rock crab, bring it, Dungeouness beats them all, claws down.

I am overdue to fall down and sleep. sorry, not much of a post.


I don't think I even cussed, must be tired.

I'll try again later.

Thanks fer stopping by.

Been Off My Feed The Past Few Days

I don't know what the fuck is wrong with me.
My sleep schedule is down right schizophrenic. Three hours here, three hours there, I almost forgot what daylight is, I am up all damn night and sleep all day.

Don't want to eat, I had a bag of popcorn one day and a bag of Fritos the next day. I finally forced myself to get out of bed after three damn days and go out and get some breakfast. I brought it home and ate about half of it.
Put it in the fridge and then at midnight, I finally got hungry enough to grab the last half of chicken fried steak and just munch on it cold.

Drug my ass out of bed yesterday and went down to the club, had a couple of drinks and played some poker. My truck has been sitting since New Years, it started right up. After I got done playing poker, I got in it to go get beer and cat litter and it immediately started running like shit, spitting and sputtering, missing on a couple of cylinders. I babied the sonofabitch home, I have no idea what is going on there. Runs fine and then don't. I don't know if it is water in the gas, the distributor cap or what the fuck. It smelled like candle wax after I revved the shit out of it. Who knows, maybe I have an admirerer who decided to help me out.
Either way, it is pouring rain out and I ain't even going to open the hood.
I am going to get in it and go get something to eat.

I got some more bad news about my Granny yesterday too but I will spare ya that for now.

Thanks fer stopping by, have a nice day.

Verizon Can Suck My Ass

Dirty motherfuckers.
They must have some of the most ignorant cocksuckers for call center help I have ever had the misfortune to deal with in my entire fucking life.
Ask them a question, I fucking DARE ya!

 "I'm sorry, I'll have to transfer you to another department for that".

This is after you have already been on hold for twenty fucking minutes to talk to the first moron.


THEN!, they have the nerve to give you an automatic robo call on your phone to take a survey of just how fucking awesome their staff is!

This is on top of their 59.95 a month "service" that just cost me a hundred and forty four mother fucking dollars, and, twenty one cents too!

Dirty, rotten, cum guzzling  ass lickers.

Fuck me, I hates me some Verizon with a hard on you could dull a Ginsu knife with.

Fucking bastards.

Back Tuesday, Hopefully

I am borrowing a computer for just a second. Back later.

Thanks fer stopping by.

Biting My Tongue

I think it's bleeding.

Another One Bites the Dust

Fuck me.
 An old friend passed away yesterday.

I had known her for over fifteen years and was one of the first people she knew after she came to town. A little tiny woman, every one just knew her as Jomama.

She landed in the little town I live in with pretty much nothing.

I didn't have much but I gave her some pots and pans, some furniture and an old green terry cloth bathrobe that I had.

As far as I know, she still had that fucking thing.

She just loved that damn thing, it was as big as a tent on her but she used to wrap it around her and snuggle up in front of her television in it.

The old woman just loved me.

She couldn't have been four foot fucking nothing, maybe 4 foot three, just a tiny little old  Italian girl.

She had to have been in her seventies by now. Always had a different wig on. Some of them were pretty damn good ones too.

She worked as a waitress for the longest time at a joint that has a pretty damn good breakfast menu.

There is another sweetheart there in her seventies doing the same damn thing.

Loud and flirtacious, she was a hoot.

She used to get hammered and someone would have to take her home, she only lived two blocks away.
I carried her drunk little ass home many times.

She got hammered one night and tried to walk home by herself and fell down on the edge of a curb and broke both of her fucking wrists. In her late sixties, she would have someone prop her narrow little ass up on a bar stool and order another beer. They had to put steel plates in her arms and it barely slowed her down.

I am going to miss that little fireball.

 RIP honey.

One more funeral, again. Getting old really sucks.

FYI, she got lit up one night and left her little blonde wig in my truck after I took her home.

I woke up just as lit as she was, went down town and saw the damn thing sitting on the seat.
I went to where she worked, put the damn thing on and walked in. Everyone in the joint just busted a gut laughing,
Pretty soon, here she comes, hung over like a bastard to go to work and I told her I wanted a Bloody Mary. She just nodded at me and walked away until someone pointed out I had her wig on.
She had a  cow on the spot and grabbed it off my head and stuck it on hers, backwards and proceeded to go make my bloody mary.
God Damn, that was funny.

I still say it looked pretty damn good on me.

Quite the lady.

Happy Birthday Baby

My honey Nasty Girl has a birthday today.
I won't even try to say how old she is so I can have one myself in a couple of weeks.

She can be an ornery little fucker just like me but she is a real sweet heart and I love her dearly.

She is truly a  good woman who will fearlessly defend her kin.

I am one lucky sonofabitch that she kinda likes me too.

Happy Birthday sweetie.

Smooch.


We are off for a little Birthday celebration today and I will be off line for a couple of days, you lucky sonsabitches.

Remember, if ya can't be good, stay sanitary.

Thanks fer stopping by.

What Happened To Our Friend?

I have not heard a peep out of my pal Monkeyfister since the last of November and it is now January 13th.

I know he was having some serious health issues but it it not like him to go silent for two fucking months. I Emailed him last week and have not heard back from him.

If anyone knows what is going on, please email me at Bustednuckles AT Gmail Dot Com.

Cats Can Be Real Assholes

Notice the little fucker glances up to see if anyone is paying attention while it is fucking with the little dog.

My All Time Favorite Far Side Cartoon

The first time I saw this I laughed until I had tears running down my face and it still just cracks my ass up

I know, I'm twisted.

A Toast To You, Sir

I never heard of this guy but I knew about his theory way back in the nineties.

Plate tectonics.

The notion that entire continents were floating around on a molten core of this planet and banging into each other over millions of years.

I salute you, Mr. Jack Oliver.

One very smart guy.

RIP.

Do I Have Any Clean Socks?

Ya wonder how we get out of bed alive some days.

Womens, ya gotta love 'em.

Smooches to every one that I know for not killing me in my sleep with a cast iron skillet


Yes, this poor guy sounds exactly like me, sometimes we outsmart our selves.

Patrice looked up from her book. "How are you going to get the truck out with all those drifts in the driveway?"


"I'm not. I'll use the tractor to bucket through the drifts, then borrow Tom's truck to pick up the plow, bring it back here, use the tractor to offload the snow plow at the end of the driveway and install it there. Then I'll finish clearing the driveway." I gave her a quick kiss on the cheek and added, "That's called efficiency, honey."

Famous last words.

Bet me money she had dinner ready too.

See It With Your Own Eyes

So, I touched a nerve yesterday.
Mine have been getting stomped on for quite some time now. For all of you who want to deny my claims of the elimininationist narrative that has been spewing forth from our Right Wing friends for the last few years, go read it yourself, every last word of it.

Watching The Old Right Wing

Fuckin' A folks, its a John Wayne weekend.

What can I say?

I'm at Nasty Girls again and she has tv.  Some channel has a weekend long John Wayne fest going on, notice the time stamp.
The old man is dead and long gone but he was one of my heroes.

Mother fucker was an ornery fucking bastard back in the day.

To this day, straight fucking whiskey and leave the bottle.

Hey, at least I ain't into Rap music.....

Reality Tee Vee I Can Get Behind

Enough of this Dancing with the Stars bullshit, no more Survivors either.

Now you can have your kids have a dose of reality, this is where your food comes from.

Just in case your meat guilt wasn't powerful enough, here comes Kill It, Cook It, Eat It, a BBC show premiering in America January 11th at 7 p.m. on Current TV. Each episode, volunteers will head out to the farm to meet, care for, and then slaughter and eat a wide variety of tasty creatures.

I don't know about anyone else but I sure as fuck don't have any " meat guilt".

I like tasty dead animal parts.

I used to laugh when I grossed out the poor little honey at the local mini mart when I would go in and order some dead chicken parts. (Hot wings)

People today are so removed from the actual processes of what it takes to put an order of hot Wings or Pork Chops on their dinner table. I think this is a great idea.

I saw a report a few months ago from Brittan that the kids over there couldn't even identify a fucking tomato, I was shocked. Dumbfounded.

How could a kid get to be eight fucking years old and not know what a fucking tomato looked like?

Somebody's Momma needs an ass beating.

Slaughtering animals for food is messy, stinks like hell and is not pretty by any means. It is also what humans have done for thousands of years.
They also taught their children , up until recently.

Plucking a wet chicken is enough to gag the strongest stomach but if you want fried chicken for Sunday dinner, you better get after it.

I remember my Granny going out back behind the house and randomly grabbing the nearest chicken and start swinging it around until the body flew off and she had the head in her hands. I think I was about six years old. The fucking chicken got up and ran under the shed. Granny told me to crawl under there and get that chicken if I wanted supper.

Let me tell ya, I had never seen anything like that and I haven't forgotten it forty five years later.

I was scared to death but Granny wasn't taking no for an answer.

Under the shed I went, crawling through chicken blood and spider webs.

I grabbed the sonofabitch and drug it out and handed it to Granny.

She just looked at me and said, Come with me boy.

Now you know how I can tell you plucking a wet chicken can make ya puke.

God, how I miss that woman.

So, it is going to come back to this here shortly, we are already well on our way.

Might as well get a head start and watch it on Tee Vee to get an idea if you don't already know, at least it won't stink.

Make sure yer kids watch it too, Hard scrabble old grannies who lived through the Depression are few and far between now and couldn't catch a chicken if they wanted to.

Null And Void

You get elected and go to a Fund Raiser  instead of Swearing The oath?

Fuck you.

Better yet, you avoid the Swearing In Ceremony so you can go to a fundraiser"?

Done.
You are not an official. Apparently it is illegal to suck corporate dick in front of people in the Capitol too, your bad, sluts.

Your new Speaker of the House got busted handing out checks from the tobacco lobby on the house  floor too, just so ya know.


They should be impeached immediately and barred from seeking office ever again.

Starving The Beast Works

You know when the bankers are whining about people using cash instead of plastic, you have hit a nerve.

Italian Banks Upset with Level of Cash Use; Underground Economy 22% of GDP


January 4th, 2011



Via: Reuters:

The Italian Banking Association has declared “war on cash” in a country where credit-card usage is less than half the European Union average, according to the Bank of Italy. The association, known by its Italian acronym ABI, says it costs banks and companies as much as 10 billion euros ($13.3 billion) a year to process cash payments, mainly in increased security and labor. Rome-based ABI aims to cut those expenses by promoting electronic payments with credit and debit cards and wire transfers in both the public and private sectors.



“Italy urgently needs these changes to catch up with other countries like France, which has allowed non-cash payments for public services for more than two decades,” said Rita Camporeale, head of payment systems and services at ABI.



Italy’s culture of cash is deeply rooted. Italians are the euro region’s least-indebted consumers and among its biggest savers, according to 2009 Eurostat data. Companies often pay salaries in banknotes to evade taxes, particularly in the country’s southern region, where organized crime is prevalent.

My heart bleeds for those scum sucking asshole bankers.

Not.

So, the underground economy over there is estimated at 22%?

That is surely putting a crimp in those sonsabitch money exchangers wallets.

This is what we need to do people, starve those motherfuckers, make them pay extra because using cash costs them money. Besides that, the PTB can't trace the stuff. They can't search your electronic trail to see what you have bought at Safeway or whether you paid the neighbor to fix your car under the table or bought a couple of bags of potatoes from the local Farmers market.
 Of course, they will try to find a way to get that money back, as we see here, by getting the government involved but hey, this little example of Fuck You, made my day.

Old Mechanics Unite!

I see the bitching about the lack of snow plowing back East and raise you a shot of whiskey and and an old fashioned blast of oil out of a squeeze can. Apparently some one in Sweden figured this shit out.

They dug out a bunch of old antique trains with snow plows on the front from museums and put them to work.
No one from Goldman Sahcs or GM, Ford or Chevy  was involved.  Nor some snobby rich fucker named Bloomberg or Christie.

Hey, ya get what ya ask for.

Neither was one stupid fucking bastard from our Congress.

Amazing, isn't it?
There be a reason us old farts are still around taking care of the old shit, it still works. I absolutely love old machinery for this very reason, it was built to last and it still fucking works if ya take care of it.

Notice the part about the ONE HUNDRED YEAR OLD SNOW PLOW!

Get the fuck out of the way  ya fuckin' whippersnappers.

Honda who?

Lol, just a dig at my buddy Gordon, I know damn good and well he feels the same way I do.

Rockin' Ya Old School

If ya don't like this then ya can kiss my ass. I see a lot of people don't even remember hearing this.
