1 Week Later - Still Jet Lagged: 2:30 AM Thoughts

It's 2:30 in the morning.
I have a meeting at 9:00a and there is no possibility of sleep on the horizon...

And what am I thinking about in the dead of the night?

That the perfect crime has probably already been committed and no one will ever know about it.
Ever.

Observations from the Field

Watching the news in the last couple weeks about the oh-so-Earthlike planet (somewhere off the Kessel run, reachable in 11 parsecs or so) and all the speculation therein...


We (all the Family here on vacation in Montana) were discussing the possibilities.

My final opinion, just before packing it in (at 7:30 PM - I was TIRED) was:


"I don't even qualify to live in Australia.
Even if we were able to colonize another planet in my life time there's not a chance they'd let me live there."

Truth.

There's This Thing Called Irony... Perhaps You've Heard Of It?

I caught part of a current social activism program that is currently in progress on one of the cable networks, the channel I usually refer to as "NCIS Network" since that's all they seem to play- unless they are re-running one of their programs...
(I have to say I did enjoy the first couple seasons of Burn Notice, and Suits had a good start, but I couldn't keep up with them as they started to get even further and further from any kind of possible reality...)

So, last week I was noshing in the commissary -  In one of the  many program monitors that are installed in there, out of the corner of my eye I caught a segment of the current iteration of their Characters Unite program... The "I won't stand for _____ " campaign.



I saw it for a second, then tuned out.
As a rule I, try to ignore the overtly political crap here and just focus on my job...

Until I saw someone here wandering the halls with one of the program shirts...

This isn't the culprit, but it's one of these type of shirts.
Ok dumbass.
I don't know if you can comprehend this- but when you say "I won't stand for intolerance" I have to wonder if you have any kind of grasp on reality.


Really?- Because I can't believe you would try to wear this 'ironically', as a hipster might.
Because since I'm not part of your 'movement' (and when I hear that, I think 'bowel movement') the over-the-top irony just looks stupid.



Philosophically, this program (and the concept of 'tolerance' as it is being pushed these days) is asinine and self-contradictory in and of itself.
After all - shouldn't tolerance be extended to people that choose to be pig-headed, bigoted, prejudiced assholes?

If you want them to put up with you, should you be tolerant of them?

That IS want tolerance is all about... Right?

When you only have a 24-hour turnaround between trips, what are the odds that your bag will not make one of your connections?
In my case, it's 100%.

Beans, Beans, Musical Deadly Fruit...

A 56-year-old man was crushed to death when he was buried underneath a pile of pinto beans at the Colorado warehouse where he worked, police said. 

It's kinda hard to know which way to go with this story...

Beans, beans, they're not so good for your heart,
when you're buried under several tons of them.

 -or take the DirecTV route-

1. When Obama is your president, you'll take any job you can get.
2. When you take any job you can get, you take the job in the bean warehouse.
3. When you take the job in the bean warehouse, you get crushed to death under a pile of beans.
4. Don't get crushed to death under a pile of beans; Defeat Obama and elect Romney.

Gay activists flip the bird at WH Reagan portrait

President Obama hosted a Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender (LGBT) Pride event at the White House last week, and the activists made sure to indicate how much they dislike former President Reagan compared to the current occupant.

Really, LGBT?
With all your talk about tolerance and that your lifestyle is not respected in America, and this is how you act?

Grow up.

Language Lesson

The Woman Who Knows Most Things and Yours Truly were discussing aberrations in the English language...

TWWKMT: "It's odd that some many things that are bad for women start with men."
YT: "How so?"
TWWKMT: "MENstrual cramps, MENtal breakdowns...and if we do a little creative spelling... HISterectomys."
YT: "Well... To be fair, keep in mind HERnias, HERpes, and using your spelling logic, HERricanes are a real bite in the ass..."

PIERS MORGAN,HOST: You said on immigration, "Elect Sarah Palin as President of the US in 2012 and we'll all leave voluntarily."

GEORGE LOPEZ: I agree. If Sarah Palin becomes president .... I will move to Canada.

Happy Chinese New Year

Welcome to the Year of the Rabbit...

"...Law and order will be lax; rules and regulations will not be rigidly enforced. No one seems very inclined to bother with these unpleasant realities. They are busy enjoying themselves, entertaining others or simply taking it easy. The scene is quiet and calm, even deteriorating to the point of somnolence. We will all have a tendency to put off disagreeable tasks as long as possible."

Uh... Yeah.
Seems like the Bunny hasn't been watching the news about Egypt.

Stringent Selection Processes

Apparently size DOES matter...

According to Yangtze Evening News, a Nanjing paper, penis size is now a barometer in selecting young players at Tianjin Locomotive Football Club. Looking at a boy’s penis size and shape can give you an idea of his hormone level, revealed a senior staffer of the club. Boys with short, thick genitals and tight scrotum are good for football playing.

So...

Why are these guys smiling?

Hey boys... She says she thinks she knows you...
