Well, folks, this is it. Friday it’s all over. Zap. Kaput. This weary old Earth and all of us with it — gone. Even though I don’t believe a word of it, sometimes I think it couldn’t happen to a more deserving planet. And as to that lame, feel-good theory that the Earth isn’t really going blooey, but is just going to go through a tribulation, with the survivors (i.e. the people holding the theory) going to emerge full of peace, love, and enlightenment … yeah. You just tell me when peace, love, and enlightenment have ever lasted more than…

You’ve heard people sneering about PETA protestors attacking society women for wearing fur but refraining from attacking outlaw bikers for wearing leather. Well … what if … (H/T MJR) Apocalyptic dog food for your best friend’s bug-out bag. “The Luxury of Anger” and how gun carriers hold themselves to a higher standard. Well said, Caleb. So where’s Bob Costas and his sanctimonious ranting now? How far off the fiscal cliff will you fall, if it comes to that? Even before the election, fans of cannabis in Washington state were worried about DUI provisions of the law that could get people…
(Thanks C^2) And of course Merry Christmas from Chiron Beta Prime: (H/T K for this oldie-goodie)
And if you liked that (and only if you liked that): If you didn’t like that, you’re probably going WTF??? about now. Well, to each his own. The other night, I watched the full-length feature that grew out of these strange little shorts. And I tell you, if you (like me, apparently) have a completely sick taste for really weird, never-cracks-a-smile, dour Finnish black humor and you think there’s not enough red in Christmas — this could be your new, guaranteed non-Jolly holiday tradition. Did I mention that it’s dour Finnish redneck black humor?
The End Times Gift Basket. Order now for delivery before the Mayan calendar runs out! Tell Santa you need it early — especially that bottle of Jack Daniels! (I should add: NFI! I just think this is a hoot.)
Wow. Promising news for dogs and humans alike. Experimental treatment helps paralyzed dogs walk again by injecting them with cells grown from their own noses. ‘Bout time judges started questioning some of this wholesale data scooping. Another example of how government “help” stinks. Literally, in this case Sigh. Despite Katrina. Despite Sandy. Despite everything. The preparedness message still isn’t reaching Joe Average. (Via The Price of Liberty) Small favor Thanks to you using those Amazon links, I’m on the way to my best-ever Amazon month! And boy, is it welcome! Now, if you’re willing, you can help accomplish one small…
I don’t know Fiona Apple’s music at all. But I expect I’d like her as a person. And I’m not the only one. (Beware: sad dog stories.) Much happier animal (and cop) story. (H/T JG) Texas high school trying to expel student for refusing to wear a spychip. It’s all about money and control, of course. (Tip o’ hat to H) How many more of these stories are we going to see? Anti-gay lawyer arrested for kiddie porn (and more). And here’s another completely unsurprising story: Detroit will run out of money by January. And another non-surprise! Senate bill touted…
Happy Thanksgiving! I hope you’re all having just the kind of day you’d most like to have. I’m thankful for everyone who visits here regularly, especially you who bring experience, wit, wisdom, and a touch of class to the joint. (You know who you are.) Now, for your holiday pleasure, the concluding scenes from WKRP in Cincinnati’s infamous “Turkeys Away” episode: (H/T Radley Balko for the reminder) And, since I couldn’t find any good videos of dogs eating their Thanksgiving dinners, here are some cats. Some really serious cats. Enjoying eating turkey. (Sorry this one has a short commercial with…
Yesterday I linked to Jester Jones, who has updated his page of free, downloadable freedomista stickers. I suggested (ahem) that they might be a good change from Santa and snowman stickers for holiday mailings. Well, Carl-Bear Bussjaeger did me one better. Here are his free stickers, especially designed to go on your Christmas mailings. And he tells me the phone number is real. Copy, print, and apply to packages — to the delight, or perhaps the abject cowering fear — of friends and family. As always in this scary day, use (or not) at your own risk. For informational purposes…
Tired of putting the usual Santa and snowman stickers on your holiday packages? This year, try something a little different. Print out stickers from Jester Jones to brighten all your holiday mailings and gifts. 🙂 Dozens of stickers “celebrating” the IRS, FBI, ATF, police brutality, and of course the ever-present Homeland (Achtung!) Security State. Free for downloading. Some are oldies (you can tell by how good Hillary Clinton looks on her sticker); but Jester let me know he’s also done some recent updating.
