    Good morning Hamsters. A really subdued Sunrise is happening, nothing like the glorious one yesterday. Maybe it’s the Sequester arriving that’s respnosible–it’s reponsible for everything else that’s negative on the planet and likely the Space Station too.
    Skunk essence floats around the neighborhood, perhaps an editorial comment on the day as well as evidence somebody/thing scared one on its nocturnal rounds. Surely coyotes are smart enough to avoid them no matter how hungry they are; that’s a lesson mom should teach the pups as soon as they are old enough to be ambulatory.
    Frost on the roofs and pastures, 32 registers on the thermometer, and March slips in like a lion out for a morning stroll rather than a sweet lamb. Here anyway. Elsewhere the lion is roaring.

    The Eyewitness News crew just axed the question; if we can’t cut 85 billion out of trillions, how are we ever going to reduce the deficit.
    Common sense breaking the barrier possibly?

    This is odd as I smelled the same thing driving home through Rosenberg last night. crossing over the Brazos on FM723 and turning right there to go over to HWY36. Distance of at least a mile. I know that’s nowhere near you (on the other side of the river to boot) and not in the country at all.
    Wierd.

    Good morning, Hamsterville! I was surprised the sun was shining as usual this morning. The innanet still works. We have heat and light at my place, and I am drinking coffee. No hint of skunks or seacrustation here.

    Poor goats. That’s prolly how I sounded last weekend when I was bedridden with swollen knees.

    So, if I’m ever out hiking and hear yelling, I shouldn’t necessarily go running for help? Do mountain goats yell, too?
    Of course, it looks like the odds of me ever hiking are slim to none. I think my butt has become permanently attached to my desk chair.

    I wonder if following the advice of the sitting VP is a legal defense?

    No, but whomever got shot (or his estate) should be able to add him to a wrongful death lawsuit.

    Ooops, gotta put the dirge playing and garment rending on hold until midnight. The Sequester doesn’t begin until then. Meantime there is supposed to be a last ditch meeting between Obama and Congressional folk when Obama can squeeze it in. What you wanna bet O will be sitting and everybody else will be standing before him?
    He can’t leave any intimidation trick unused. Wonder if he has any smaller Greek columns in the broom closet to install for background.

    I’m really glad that the two flocks we have in our neighborhood are both blocks away from our house. I like doing the drive-by viewings, and it was cool the morning we found them in our yard, but for a permanent location, distance is better.
    Peacocks are like Minnesota. It’s a nice place to visit, but I wouldn’t want to live there.

    From my email:
    An old man walks into the barbershop for a shave and a haircut, but he tells the barber he can’t get all his whiskers off because his cheeks are wrinkled from age. The barber gets a little wooden ball from a cup on the shelf and tells him to put it inside his cheek to spread out the skin. When he’s finished, the old man tells the barber that was the cleanest shave he’s had in years. But he wanted to know what would have happened if he had swallowed that little ball. The barber replied, “Just bring it back in a couple of days like everyone else does”.

    G’Morning All
    Speaking of survival, I got an email notification from Carter’s Country yesterday that ammo was in, so I went down to buy some. I bought several boxes of ammo for my rifles. On the way home I stopped at the gas station and this drop-dead gorgeous blonde was filling up her car at the next pump.
    She looked at the ammo in the back of my car and said in a very sexy voice, “I’m a big believer in barter, big boy. Would you be interested in trading sex for ammo?”
    I thought it over for a few seconds and responded, “Well, what kind of ammo have you got to trade?”

    Employees: Obama donor in process of buying up and ‘destroying’ America’s top pro-gun media outlets
    11:42 PM 02/28/2013
    Employees of Obama donor Leo Hindery Jr.’s media conglomerate Intermedia Partners, which now owns most of the top gun-culture media outlets in the country, believe that Hindery plans to gut and destroy all of them as part of a business plan that has already led to numerous layoffs and the virtual shuttering of prominent television production facilities in Minnesota and Montana.
    Hindery, who was in consideration to be President Barack Obama’s secretary of commerce, is managing partner of Intermedia Partners. The New York-based media private equity fund owns Intermedia Outdoor Holdings, which publishes 17 hunting, fishing, and shooting magazines, including Guns & Ammo, Handguns, Gun Dog, Rifle Shooter and Shooting Times.
    InterMedia Outdoor Holdings purchased the pro-gun hunting and fishing network the Sportsman Channel in 2007, and is now in the process of acquiring the Outdoor Channel, pending the federal government’s approval of last month’s merger between InterMedia Outdoors and Outdoor Channel Holdings.
    InterMedia employees believe that Hindery, a Huffington Post blogger who has contributed to numerous Democratic politicians including Andrew Cuomo and Elizabeth Warren, is in the process of consolidating all of America’s leading gun-culture media outlets and stripping them down to virtual destruction.
    Prior to its acquisition by InterMedia, the media brand Petersen’s Hunting, the television arm of which is broadcast by the Sportsman Channel, was housed in a “beautiful” facility in Baxter, Minnesota, overlooking the Mississippi River. The facility had approximately 60 employees, a massive studio, at least nine editing bays and fully-wired machine rooms and was conducting about four studio shoots per year with a full production crew.
    That facility now mostly consists of about 12 employees –“basic administrative types,” who “think every day they go into work is going to be their layoff day,” according to an InterMedia employee who spoke on condition of anonymity.

    My favorite part was when he finally got the fire lit, he was in a panic to grab snow and stuff to put it out.
    He shoulda watched this guy for some tips.

    Possibly the most asinine comment ever:

    “We are spending money we don’t have,” Mr. Bloomberg explained. “It’s not like your household. In your household, people are saying, ‘Oh, you can’t spend money you don’t have.’ That is true for your household because nobody is going to lend you an infinite amount of money. When it comes to the United States federal government, people do seem willing to lend us an infinite amount of money. … Our debt is so big and so many people own it that it’s preposterous to think that they would stop selling us more. It’s the old story: If you owe the bank $50,000, you got a problem. If you owe the bank $50 million, they got a problem. And that’s a problem for the lenders. They can’t stop lending us more money.”

    With a close second to this one:

    “I am not a dictator,” President Obama said Friday while defending his efforts to stop the sequester.

    We may need a poll for the most idiotic statements ever. Biden will have his own poll. But I don’t think we have enough room…

    The better question is how do you cook mashed taters without any pots or pans.
    You mix instant in a plastic bag, cut off one of the corners, and squeeze it onto the tortilla like cake frosting.

    #38 Sarge: I want to see footage of Boner or McConnel stating the fact that the sequester was JugEars idea and in fact, he insisted on it. I want to see one or preferably both speak how he moved the goal posts and refuses to negotiate in good faith, that he has the power to make the REDUCTIONS IN THE RATE OF GROWTH (there are no real cuts, except to the DoD) virtually painless. I want a special prosecutor to investigate Benghazi, and the release of the felonious illegal aliens from detention. There is so much that needs to be hung around that TN’s neck and no R seems to have the stomach to at least speak the unvarnished truth. If the R’s can’t figure this out by now then who needs thier stupidity?

    I have to fix dinner and finish my preps for the retreat tomorrow. In case I don’t make it back, y’all keep all of my teenagers in your prayers tomorrow. They’ll be spending a lot of time one-on-one with the Scripture, and for some of them it’s the first time they’ve contemplated anything more complicated than their navels since they learned to sit upright.
    And keep all of us who are leading them in your prayers as well, that we provide good example and good guidance for those truly seeking the Lord. And that we make very sure to let them know that the gate is open for those who decide they want to seek Him in earnest in the future.
    Now, I need to go find some sheets, blindfolds, boom box, my special chair…

    Sheets: to sit on outside, also to play a “Flip the Sheet” game where a group on them stand on a sheet and flip it over without touching the floor
    Blindfolds: For my “Blindfolded Obstacle Course” game. Students are blindfolded, and then they make their way through an obstacle course as their teammates yell out instructions to them. Or, the opposing team can also yell out “instructions to them”. Leads to a discussion of listening for God in our lives – how hard is it to hear Him, how do we know to trust the messages we receive, etc.
    Boom box: so I can play some Christian music to them, especially during our worship time
    Special chair: My back supporting chair, because my back is still not right
    Geez, get your mind out of the gutter, dude!
