And then there’s this one, pretending to be intelligent (and all the media, too!)

I’ve been working late tonight and finally got a chance to get caught up on the Couch events of the day. Sounds like everyone is in good shape tonight, possibly excepting Super Dave who dashed out w/o explaining his “bound to” problem. Texanadian and his trophy wife should have a wonderful reunion after all the danger and uncertainty, and have… Read more »

The death of private property rights continues. This totally pisses me off. I mean absolutely livid pissed off. http://www.fortbendnow.com/2011/06/20/52498 Needless to say the added emphasis is mine.

GJT, think Andy Griffith on his “What is was was Football” record from the 50’s, one of his stories was two “Two Silhouettes on the shade” where the boy sees the silhoutte of a gal on the window shade and since he has the “Bound To’s” he gathers up his courage and goes and knocks on her door. I googled… Read more »

Oh I thought it was the ‘bound to’ make a spill on the drive when changing oil type thing. Or ‘bound to’ cut the 2×4 too short after measuring 3 times.

David Mamet – the well know writer/director has recently released a book documenting his “conversion” path from liberalism to conservatism. The book is causing waves throughout the entertainment community as are his numerous interviews where he assails the stupidity of liberalism with unabashed ferocity. One of his phrases that I recently read seems particularly appropriate: “You need two things for… Read more »

This cop really dropped a terd in the butter churn. While his speech was calm, his actions were deplorable. If he would have merely said please back up, there would have been no problem, the fact that he “asked” her to go into her house is crossing the line and crapping on it in the process. That he chose to… Read more »
