Well, our President is off on yet ANOTHER vacation. This time, the family will return to Hawaii for seventeen days. POTUS and FLOTUS just returned from a 14 day summit in Hawaii, but I guess they just can’t get enough.
And the MSM yawns.
How many golf games?
How many vacations?
If this were a Republican (not even a conservative, just someone with an “R” by his name), the MSM would be apoplectic. As it is, they cover for him. The Middle East is going up in flames – probably soon, and probably literally – and TBO goes on vacation. There’s a a major pipeline project with Canada that’s been delayed, which (1)damages our relationship with our neighbor, (2)at the cost of much-needed jobs, and (3) further encourages our dependence upon countries which have large populations of people who distrust us or want us dead. What does our POTUS do? Go golfing.
That seems to be his answer to everything. Got a domestic issue, like his friend Holder being roasted over a spit due to Fast & Furious? Go golfing. Got a major world crisis? Go on vacation.
This is a four year old pretending to be a man. He’s a narcissistic popsicle, unable to related to the pain and suffering of others, and unable to see how twisted his behavior appears to others. And Michelle isn’t much better, else she’d pound some sense into him, instead of engaging in her own narcissistic behavior; e.g., taking a jet – and all it entails, seeing as how she’s FLOTUS – because she didn’t want to wait four hours to start her vacation, while her hubby to finish up the duties of his office.
This couple disgusts me. No class. None. Period. Nada. Zilch.

Darren – Numbers 5: What a fantastic example of what can happen to meaning when one translates from one language to another. I still have yet to install my Biblesoft PC5 program on my computer at work. When I get home this afternoon, I will look into that passage in greater depth. The bitter cup: This concept is used frequently… Read more »
mharper; abortifacient While I never studied Latin per se, I do enjoy looking up Latin words and comparing them to Spanish and Portuguese. With that background, I took “abortifacient” to its Latin roots (in my mind). “Aborti” would be from “abortio” meaning “miscarriage/abortion”. “Facient” would mean “a thing that makes”. So, “abortifacient” literally means, “something to make a miscarriage or… Read more »
ShaNa Na sorry – lost my remote connection to home PC this morn in – just now saw yer post – txt SENT
mharper;
Thanks. I do like that.
#64 Darren
The administration of a bitter liquid does seem like it could be an attempt to induce a miscarriage, and the term for such drugs is abortifacient.
#61 Pyro
Tit for tat, huh?
My post on abortion and the Bible from yesterday is up and running. please read and comment. The more comments the better. Especially if you bring insights to meaning.

Merry Curmudgeon to one and all. Hey it is just a Christmas Song.
WB My next door neighbor is from DeKalb, Illinois and several years ago after he lost both his parents, he bought a full Shelby Cobra kit from Factory Five to take his mind off his troubles. It took him three years in his spare time to build it from scratch. It sits in the garage next door and he cranks… Read more »

When I was about 11 and working out on Doc Anderson’s ranch, I found a cow in the pasture with her water broke and staggering around. I roped her and brought her up to the barn. We called Dr. Lamp in Bellville and he came out. I had her up in the chute and once he checked her out, he… Read more »
I was driving while watching. I swear I saw the man approach some guy at a table at
what looked like a mall food court.
I’m could have been having a senior moment.
Or my long-awaited first flashback.
I’m continually amazed at Senator Cornyn’s innate ability to continue to produce more Crist like, squishy senatorial candidates to run for office. This time it’s Nebraska’s governor who single handily blocked construction of the Canadian oil pipeline to supply our gulf coast refiners with crude. What in the world is that guy (Cornyn) thinking?

If you ever watched metastatic prostate cancer quickly and relentlessly march its way through a loved one’s spine and liver, a little finger in the bum is no biggie.

#51 Aha, Shannon isn’t bashful. I just wondered it that bizarre video would inspire a man to get a Czech-up, or send him screaming away from the scene. Which I don’t think was a mall, looked like an alley in a bad part of town. The same town that Max Headroom lived in. Thanks for the response, and I see… Read more »
#48 Bones
I see some woman has told you exactly what happens during mammography. However you are out in left field thinking a pap test bears any resemblance to “normal marital relations.”
51 Shannon
BINGO !!!! We have a winner ! Sometimes one must make sure to tie a rope around ones self when going in some of them Kritters also.
#50 WB/#42 Bone:
Yeah, what he said!
Mharp I’m still not clear as to what you’re asking. Is it creepy for a stranger to approach you in a mall and ask to perform a digital exam? You bet it is. If the video is a humorous attempt at a public service announcement I think they were pretty successful. I get a PSA (which is a blood test)… Read more »
#46 fat albert / #42 bone Those are 64 Gb (bit) chips, correct? Therefore you need 9 of them to get 8-bit bytes +parity, +extra overhead & error correction. Cache (L1) on the processor is very fast and very expensive. Cache (L2) in the same package as the processor is also very fast and very expensive, albeit somewhat less so.… Read more »
Those sorry Dallas Cowboys are finding more creative ways to lose a game than the Houston Oilers did.
#45 M42: For a straight guy to allow another guy (gay or straight) to stick his finger (or anything else) up his hoo-ha is abhorrent. To allow a straight woman to do it is only slightly less abhorrent if they are not going to be intimate. If they are going to be intimate, I have to wonder how long the… Read more »
#44 Robert:
Man, it’s the middle of the winter! If you had your very own 747 to go wherever you wanted and people would give you a place to stay when you got there, would YOU go to Chicago?
#42 Bonecrusher: Most CPU’s have a small amount of storage built in. Additional storage is addressed in two ways – RAM is addressed using a dedicated RAM bus structure that ties directly to the CPU. Hard drive storage (either disk or SSD) is addressed using a different data bus structure and data format. The current wholesale price of quality 64… Read more »
#38 Bones does that kind of clarify things for you Well, that does give me one opinion. Apparently the subject is too scary for the rest of the guys to even comment about. I can’t imagine a PSA for mammography or a pap test being so creepy, but then men are famously averse to medical checkups of any kind. I… Read more »
You know what is amazing about the Obummers going to Hawaii is, he was only there till he was six years old and he treats it like he was born and raised there forever. How come they seem to forget where they planted their roots, Chicago, Illinois? What, are they trying to get away from all those “bad” influences there… Read more »
I really hope the foul O tries to get away with this. President Obama’s team of negotiators at the United Nations Climate Change Conference may agree to a tax on foreign currency transactions, designed to pay for a “Green Climate Fund,” that would fall disproportionately on American travellers and businesses, according to a group attending the conference that is skeptical… Read more »
#41 FA: Why can’t you just build an internal mount for 20 or so of the guts of a 64gig usb drive? Why not mount one directly on the CPU and have 64gigs of memory right on the processor? What am I missing?
#31 Bonecrusher: A few months ago I bought a 2 terrabyte external usb drive for $100, this gizmo has moving parts and is likely much more difficult to manufacture than the SSD so why are the SSDs so wissin expensive? Actually, solid state memory in multi-GB sizes is still quite difficult to manufacture, requiring manipulation of materials on the nanometer… Read more »

Last night Darren posted: On another blog a poster recently argued that a passage of the Bible demonstrated how God commanded His people to abort babies conceived via adultery inm order to keep the bloodline of the husband pure. While I absolutely, 100% reject this interpretation of scripture, I would like others here to give their tae on it. I… Read more »
#37 M42: The subject to which that finger is pointing (I am speaking for the hetero males) is EXIT ONLY!! Mondo, Major League creepy as hell and not a comfortable thought, let alone procedure to endure.
There, does that kind of clarify things for you, my favorite athiest:>)
The sports fans declined my challenge last night, but I’d still like to get some male opinions on the link I came across.

You can fit a functioning operating system in under 64k.
You can fit Ubuntu Linux, with all the video drivers, etc. in 4GB. I have it installed on a 16GB thumb drive, so I can keep documents, more apps, etc. It will boot on almost anything.
I just plugged it in – and all of my files are there! I have opened one Word document, and it launched the application and opened the file without a problem. As long as an electronic device is not powered on and has no power available when it gets wet, it will usually make it through immersion in fresh clean… Read more »
#26 Drayage flamer:
They need to do that each time they have rockets launched at them; regardless of the source and that includes wissin Gaza.
#30 M42: The point I was trying to make is the outright absurdity of banning family from bringing such items in the first place. That he is now (temporarily) lifting the ban only serves to highlight that it was ever in place. My understanding is that it is still prohibited for our soldiers to have Bibles in their quarters in… Read more »
#29 TT: The biggest stick drive I have ever seen advertised was 64gigs; that is way more memory than what went up on apollo 13. In fact, you could program (I think) an entire functioning computer on that single chip, the only other things needed would be an input device and a monitor. When I consider that most of the… Read more »

Hey, EG was pointing out that some of Obammy’s PC nonsense is being rescinded right now, presumably to sweeten his election appeal with the hoi polloi — as I am sure O sees us.
Last week I took a USB drive to my cpa’s office to make a backup in case she made any changes. I forgot to take it out of my pocket, and ran my blue jeans – and the flash drive – through the wash. As soon as I found it in the bottom of the washing machine, I opened it… Read more »
#27 EG: Do you remember Arlene Ocasio, the director of the Houston National Cemetary? Do you see a pattern emerging here? It is just fine to “embrace our mooooooslime brothers” but Christians and Jews are not welcome nor is their Elohim.
You can tell it’s getting close to election time. Obama is even rescinding the order prohibiting Bibles and religious materials being brought into Walter Reed Hospital by family and visitors to injured military personnel. What’s this world coming to?

Israel should have rototilled a 4km square area around the launchers with heavy artillery. The IDF said it held the Lebanese government responsible for the attacks and that it needed to take action to prevent future rocket fire. Home Front Defense Minister Matan Vilna’i said that “the Lebanese government is responsible for everything that happens in Lebanon and everything that… Read more »
This would be hilarious if it weren’t so sad. In response to the four rockets fired from Lebanon, the IDF pounded the launch sites with artillery shells. The Lebanese report claimed that only one rocket was fired from Lebanon into Israel and that the IDF fired six artillery shells. Notice that the Lebanese do not deny involvement in firing rockets… Read more »
Boney and Pyro When I got out of USMC Avionics in ’64 I went to work at the Santa Monica airport. I became fairly intimate with the Cobra. I lived about 1/2 mile from Shelby’s shop and could hear him when he cranked up a new one for a test run. (still sends a shiver up my leg) The tin… Read more »
I hope, also. Unfortunately, it won’t be soon enough for my brother-in-law. /sad

Good cancer link. I’m blond headed, blue eyed and grew up in Corpus with a fishing rod in my hands. My bi monthly trips to MD Anderson for skin cancer have exposed me to all kinds of cancer research. I’m guessing that within 5-10 years cancer will be a thing of the past. (I hope)
#19 Pyro: Heck yes! I am not ashamed to admit it but I do not possess the skills necessary to wring out all that car can do. It certainly would be fun developing them though. On another note, those can be built in kit form that, depending on the chosen powertrain, will rival the original in all performance categories. Carroll… Read more »
