Well, I didn’t watch the State of the Union speech. I was busy judging decorated potty lids. It was a tough decision, deciding which I’d rather be doing. From what I’ve heard so far, I made the right choice.
The door is open, I’ve removed the newspaper from the couch, and the fridge is all yours. Come on in and talk amongst yourselves while I finish waking up.
Wednesday SOTU Aftermath Open Comments

I just paid my Harris County property tax online with an echeck. There’s some guy named Lawrence that lurks here who hates Paul Bettencourt, but Tax Man Paul modernized the tax office during his tenure. I no longer do my own prop tax protesting, but back when I did, I sure liked how much of the research I could do… Read more »

Tim, now I know what they mean when they call it lurking… 🙂

LOL, I wasn’t even paying attention to the post numbers.
wagonburner, Texpat, et al;
I first heard of the seriousness of Egypt’s riots on Huge Hewitt’s openenig comments today. He stressed that this should be on America’s mind right now. I think he’s right.
Guess I’ll chime in, SD you missed a decimal point! 😛

I reckon I could really start a knock-down-drag-out-all-nighter over baptism.
Nah.
I’m going to bed.

That business has Lucy/Charlie Brown/football written all over it.
Dangit
hunnerd!!
I knew you had one more in ya Darren!
I know y’all birfers were getting excited…. Evans, who says he has been a close friend of Abercrombie since the 1980s, appeared on Minnesota’s KQRS radio last week and said he’d been told by the governor himself that Obama’s birth certificate was nowhere to be found. Evans told KQRS on Jan. 20: “Yesterday, talking to Neil’s office, Neil says that… Read more »
Wagon #40; I saw that story earlier today and I too got put off with the protests and their main reason to protest. But while I thought it was cool for a state to have an official gun, I wondered exactly what was motivating this particular drive. Then I spotted the reason: Republican Rep. Carl Wimmer said the state should… Read more »

Are there any good online resources to directly translate from Aramaic and Hebrew?
Oh, it’s good advice as well.
Oletimer’s #31 is tooooooo funny!!! 🙂
Sarge #16;
That’s really awesome, Sarge. God bless you, sir.
While this sociopath professor is driving his girlfriend to the abortatorium in a Prius with ‘Tolerance’ bumper stickers, Christian missionaries are actually helping people. A major dittos to that! I pointed out Mother Theresa’s Catholicism just to show that calling her a hag and blaming her and her faith for the suffering of others (despite how completely untrue and, as… Read more »

That is wonderful. How blessed you are.
An earsplitting Hallelujah chorus is rolling through my mind.
Ex-Congressman Shoescrapings is apparently as bad a lawyer as he was a Congressman. Former Rep. Alan Grayson, D-Fla., did not disappear after losing his seat in Congress. The most obnoxious former member of the House — who went down smearing his opponent and asserting that Republicans want sick people to die — now has more spare time for his profession… Read more »
I’m not sure what the biases of the Miami Herald is, other than its a McClatchy paper, but they are reporting something a bit different than what Debka is. CAIRO — An uneasy calm returned Wednesday to downtown Cairo, with protesters vowing to continue their efforts to topple the U.S.-backed authoritarian Egyptian regime even as momentum appears to have dissipated.… Read more »
#88 Daniel Inouye of….Hawaii. Coincidence??? He’s been in on the scam since the beginning!
I have a 40 year old certified copy (of a microfiche version) of my original “long form” birth certificate. Recently I needed to get a birth certificate for my mom, so while I was at it I also requested a couple of copies of mine, one for each daughter in case I lost it. What arrived in the mail looked… Read more »
btw – Who’s President Pro Tempore of the Senate these days.
It was Sheets Byrd until he assumed Senate chamber temperature.
At least it’s Boehner now and not The Pelosi.
Speaker of the House is next in line following the VP. Oh my glory, what a scenario that would be.
~ Ducks and zig-zags out the door.~
And Biden would be elevated to POTUS. The bad joke continues.
#83 Texakanuk: If there is no long form Birth Certificate, that would be pretty strong evidence that “the birfers” were correct all along. The lamestream media poo-pooing the idea that the foul “O” was not eligible to be POTUS and maligning those who believed that he was not legit, is now going to come back and bite them on the… Read more »
In case this isn’t already up, no time to read all.
Abercrombie, hawaii’s gov. admits no birth cerficate. h/t Drudge

Here’s a good op/ed on last week’s non-controversy that caused so many “theologically illiterate” to have a conniption fit: Clearly, given the context, the governor was not speaking about extending civil rights only to a select group, whether that group is identified by class, race or religion. Nor is there any indication that he “condemned the beliefs of non-Christians,” as… Read more »
From the linkie-thingie in Pyro’s #78:
No wonder that SOB couldn’t find any nukes in Iran.
It seems Debka is the source for the (as yet) unconfirmed Mubarak rumor.
Not the best source.
Its the WND for Middle East affairs.
Al Jazzeera is not reporting this.
Claire Berlinski of Ricochet.com (she lives in Turkey) is reporting the Mubarak family has fled the nation of Egypt. There has been a complete news blackout for days now and no one really knows what is going on. Videos of riots and general civil unrest are leaking out onto the web. This is extremely serious for America, the Middle East… Read more »
Hosni Jr split the scene in Cairo and bravely forged a path to London with his wife & daughter.
I wonder if he was able to load up the
photo albumsfamily loot?OOps should have scrolled down first.
#53 SD I think you slipped a decimal there. $139,000.00
Buffet should stay away from margaritas and stick with Jamaican. I’m generally able to enjoy all forms of music, from classical to big band, fusion, classic/light jazz, most forms of rock, etc., and even Country. The two exceptions are Opera, and Rap. Both for the same reason. I can’t understand a thing they’re saying. All is not lost on the… Read more »
The roooskies have sown to the wind for years with their support of Hamas, Hizbollah, the sh-theads running Iran, Syria and now they are reaping the whirlwind . They are learning that you can not coexist nor successfully negotiate with islamists. “Our war is more intensive than the one between the Israelis and the Palestinians,” he added, saying pessimistically that… Read more »

My heart was there a few years ago, and I made private Testimony to the Lord at the time. But this is a public display of a private decision… Read more »
#70 Pyro: from the comments: Cheeseburgers in the Geriatric Ward? And I’m ‘Just Sayin”, but old geezers trying to rock out at 50 is just as sad as watching 20-somethings trying to rock out. Or 70-somethings…like the Rolling Stones. Or should they be called “Rolling Gravestones”? God knows they look like it. Keith Richards can pass for an ancient artifact… Read more »
Jimmy Buffet musta enjoyed a trip to Margaritaville before his show in Sydney.

#63 On/about 22NOV2010, a well connected man, predicted that before Passover 2011 the current mullah-ocracy would be overthrown in IRAN. What would replace it is unknown. I would suggest that we all read the 8th chapter of Daniel. We should keep in mind this passage: Dan 8:19 19 He said, “Behold, I am going to let you know what will… Read more »
Sarge, wonderful news of your forthcoming baptism. An occasion for celebration. God bless you.
#59 Hambone I like that better than the 789. I’ve always wanted a 49-53 Chevy pickup, I spent many a mile in my cousin’s 52 when I was a kid.
Seems the “Arab street” is seething a bit these days. Link goes to a live blog of events unfolding in and around Cairo. The problems in Tunisia and Lebanon appear to have given the Egyptians a mind to go out and protest. Lets not forget what the intention of the occupation of Iraq was: To establish a Democracy in a… Read more »

I’ll take one of those, too. Red & White of course.
Seems the “Arab street” is seething a bit these days. Link goes to a live blog of events unfolding in and around Cairo. The problems in Tunisia and Lebanon appear to have given the Egyptians a mind to go out and protest. I wonder what the likelihood of further spreading of these anti-government protests will be? Algeria hasn’t bee the… Read more »
#53 SuperDave, only $14K? Take two out of petty cash! Some years ago I had a two week project in ATL. Hertz screwed up and instead of a compact (required by the company) gave me the keys to an ’02 nostalgic T-Bird ragtop at the compact rate. The All New 2002 Thunderbird features modernized design elements from the ’55-’57 and… Read more »
#53 SD: Ya missed a zero there. At $13,900, they would not be able to keep up with demand as they would prolly sell something like 500,000 in the 1st year. At $139,000 the universe of potential buyers is “significantly reduced”. I want one in a solid medium dark pearl green with no pinstripes. The pearl would really make the… Read more »
