R.I.P.

One of my favorite authors, Colleen McCullough passed away.  Best known for "The Thorn Birds" (which I have not read) she was behind many excellent historical fiction works, including "Masters of Rome" series of which I am a big fan.

And yeah, considering she is one of the country's great treasures she deserved a much better obit than this.  Hard to believe from a Murdoch publication, huh?

I, and I alone, am calling it!

I guess this means, by posting this, I win.

...although I'm sure he did not know it was a game, and if he did, he did not understand the rules until the game was over and then said he knew the rules all along...and New York City sucks.

Followed by other faux self-catharsis.

Rim Shot!

I thought with the Cowboys eliminated Chris Christie wasn't going to the Super Bowl?

I did not see the SOTU last night...

Is the State of the Union, strong?

When did the President declare the Caliphate starts, today or with tomorrow's first call of the Muezzin?

Also, I believe FoxNews accurately reported that there are certain parts of the Chelsea District were their pundits cannot walk without a disguise.

Great moment in "bravery"

Oh kudos to the Obama Administration for proposing the types of tax reform that should have been proposed when the Democrats had majorities in Congress, as opposed to now when it's all a non-accomplishable stunt. 

The cornerstone of Obama's proposal will be a $500 "second earner" tax credit to boost the fortunes of families where both spouses work, a substantial expansion of the Child Tax Credit to $3,000 per child under five, the White House said on Saturday night ahead of his seventh annual address to the nation.

The president's plan will also call for closing the trust fund loophole and raising the top capital gains tax rate to 28 percent.
Closing tax loopholes on trust funds?   Why that's pure communism!

Bravo!

As I was saying

Only the biggest of douchebags demand a protest of people in order for the latter to prove they are not assholes.


Said the guy named after a complete whack-job

Sen. Rand Paul (R-KY) has called the news this week of a possible 2016 run by Mitt Romney "the definition of insanity."

Shut the FUCK up!

The same people whining that "Muslims need to step up and start protesting radical Islam" are largely comprised of the the subset that think others sue people too often.

Demanding that OTHERS - who are not actually doing what you don't like -- do things to make YOU feel better about THEM is the ultimate douche move.

Well, hello there

Apparently I've gone more than three weeks without posting.

Oops.

Sorry.

Have been busy in my actual chosen profession and needed to focus on that less important thing.
