Wednesday Crazy Open Comments

Compliments of one of our resident wimmins, mharper42, we have an **ahem** interesting story about another wimmin who thinks she “ate” her twin.
Before you get all wound up, it’s a potential case of fetus in fetu. Note that this condition and “crazy”, “koo-koo”, “nuts”, “bananas”, et al. are not mutually exclusive.

The scientist speculated that this happens far more than is ever researched or discovered. She hypothesized that many embryos split into two beings during very early development and that one twin absorbs the other quickly thereafter. This happens so early in the embryo’s formationβ€”usually before cell differentiationβ€” that it doesn’t affect most individuals by producing tumors or other complications. Here’s the freaky part, though: she also conjectured that twin absorption could account for most people’s asymmetrical body parts. For instance, if you have one arm that is longer than the other, you may have eaten your sibling. You disgust me.

Thank you mharper42.
Are you sure you’re not the surviving twin?

    Good chilly moring Hamsters. Light frost and 36 out here on the moors at Richmond at 6:30. Dawn’s rosy fingers embrace the horizon, and this morning there is no breeze yet. All is quiet other than an occasional squeal from the tree ducks in the neighborhood and passage of a few cars on the neighborhood roads, folks going early to beat the traffic.
    Off to a birthday luncheon today for a dear friend from my Baylor days in the Medical Center. Three of us get together to celebrate birthdays and at Christmas, and try to get together a couple of times between. It turns out to be a most of the day project, as we are spread out in the Houston area. Me in Richmond, another dear friend in Westbury in SW Huston, and the birthday lady in Sagemont over in SE Houston. We’re going to her place.
    Be good Hamsters.

    Despite pro-gun dominance in the Texas Legislature, what have lawmakers done to protect your Second Amendment rights?
    Nothing.
    So far, 18 states have introduced bills under the Second Amendment Protection Act, which is β€œa state-level bill that renders all federal gun laws, regulations, rules, acts, orders etc. – null and void within the borders of the state.” Meanwhile, Joe Straus has sent pro-gun reforms to die in meaningless committees. With the gun-grabbers working overtime in Washington D.C., lawmakers in Austin have wasted nearly half of the legislative session without lifting a finger or passing a single bill to protect our Second Amendment rights.
    Some could easily say that we don’t need laws that recognize laws, especially the highest law of the land. Perhaps Joe Straus is so weak-kneed that he’s been lulled into this false sense of security. If our lawmakers fail to act, all of President Obama’s unconstitutional Executive Orders, and any of the new Feinstein-Manchin-McCarthy gun control proposals that make it out of Congress will be used to squash the gun rights of Texans.
    Here are the bills that we Texans need to contact our representatives and demand they co-sponsor and support them. Demand that these bills be brought to a vote. Put pressure on the committees to move them along.

    Campus Carry is at the top of the list. It has personal Liberty, personal protection, and political implications. Colorado Republicans are having a field day shaming Democrats in the hearings they are holding on the issue. Republicans bring forward young women who, although legally licensed to carry everywhere else in the State, have been victims of rape on campus, as Democrats go on record saying all sorts if idotic and insensitive things teling them that tyhey didn’t really need a gun to protect themselves from the crime of violence that was committed against them.

    I think, with this response, that nothing is “off the table” for this admin to achieve their political goals.

    HEADLINE: Eric Holder: Drone strikes against Americans on U.S. soil are legal
    Attorney General Eric Holder can imagine a scenario in which it would be constitutional to carry out a drone strike against an American on American soil, he wrote in a letter to Sen. Rand Paul, R-Ky.
    β€œIt is possible, I suppose, to imagine an extraordinary circumstance in which it would be necessary and appropriate under the Constitution and applicable laws of the United States for the President to authorize the military to use lethal force within the territory of the United States,” Holder replied in a letter yesterday to Paul’s question about whether Obama β€œhas the power to authorize lethal force, such as a drone strike, against a U.S. citizen on U.S. soil, and without trial.”

    Eric Holder is an enemy of The Constitution as is his boss and the rest of that nest of vipers in the JugEars administration. The question I have is: what is going to be “the last straw” that makes the VMG wake up and revolt?

    On March 7, Santa Anna interviewed each of the survivors individually. He was impressed with Mrs. Dickinson and offered to adopt Angelina and have the child educated in Mexico City. Dickinson refused the offer. A few days after the battle, Santa Anna released mother and daughter to act as a messenger to General Sam Houston.
    Susanna Dickinson reported that after the battle, the following had occurred during the siege and ultimate fight:
    There were very few casualties before the final assault. She did not know the number.
    She confirms that the legendary β€œline in the sand” incident, where Col. William Travis gave the defenders the choice of staying or leaving, did happen–but at a different time.
    She hid inside the chapel and did not see the actual battle.
    She saw the body of Davy Crockett between the chapel and the barracks building.
    She saw the body of Jim Bowie with two dead Mexican soldiers lying beside him.
    She was taken to a house where she’d previously lived, and from there could see the pyres of the dead being burned.
    The next day she was taken before Santa Anna, and a soldier convinced Santa Anna to release her rather than imprison her.
    At some point after the battle, she has no recollections, only that she wept for days.

    I managed to score a couple of cases of ammo at the sporting goods store this morning. As I was putting it in the trunk of my car, I was approached by an attractive young lady. She struck up a conversation about how she supports the second amendment, loves to go to the gun range, and the like. Then she shocked me by asking if I would be interested in bartering sex for ammo. Once I regained my composure, I said OK, what kind of ammo do you have? She left.

    In a recent survey commissioned by President Obama, his supporters have proven to be the most likely to have had sex in the shower.
    The survey was carried out for democrats by a leading soap and toiletries firm.
    The results revealed that 86% of Obama supporters said that they have had sex in the shower.
    The remaining 14% said they haven’t been to prison yet.

    Brave teacher disarms 7-year old student brandishing a gun
    -shaped Pop-Tart. It must be noted that this was a very threatening toaster pastry. The article mentions that it was a strawberry Pop-Tart, which we all know is the most delicious dangerous flavor.
    The father of the miscreant and the suspect are both exhibiting appropriat reactions.

    Late Friday afternoon a letter went home with students explaining the incident saying, “A student used food to make an inappropriate gesture.”
    But Josh’s dad is not happy saying, “I would almost call it insanity. I mean with all the potential issues that could be dealt with at school, real threats, bullies, whatever the real issue is, it’s a pastry.., Ya know?”
    Josh just wishes he could go back to class, but maintains a good sense of humor through the whole debacle saying, “I didn’t get to eat all my breakfast, so, really I am still hungry.”

    When I was in school, an “inappropriate gesture” usually involved someone telling a teacher he/she was “number one”. They would have been happy had we simply nibbled a Pop-Tart (strawberry) down to a gun-like shape.
    To add more insanity to the whole episode, the school has counselors on hand to talk the traumatized children down from the roof help everyone get over the trauma of seeing a Pop-Tart (strawberry) in a shape resembling what might be construed as a gun. They also sent letters home to the parents of the delicate little flowers.

    Pretty sure that if your children are “troubled” by another kid biting a pastry into something that looks sort of like a gun and waving said pastry around, you have already failed as a parent.

    The administrators are also failures for making such a huge deal out of nothing. They should all be fired for exhibiting the judgement of amoebas. Parents should also transfer their children to another school where actual adults are in charge.

    Any gun of any kind, loaded or unloaded, operable or inoperable, including any object other than a firearm which is a look-a-like of a gun. This shall include, but is not limited to, pellet gun, paintball gun, stun gun, taser, BB gun, flare gun, nail gun, and air soft gun.

    Josh’s gun was not a firearm, because it was a pastry, and it seems highly unlikely that it qualified as a gun “look-a-like,” again because it was a pastry. It certainly is nothing like any of the “look-a-like” items set forth in the list, largely because those items are not pastries.

    Maybe the school administration should spend some time with the counselors, but I think they need inpatient therapy somewhere.

    Ban the capital letters L, K, & F. If you turn them sideways, they look like guns. The only logical solution is to ban these and all other assault letters in the alphabet.
    Similarly, we either need to change the shapes of the states of Florida and Oklahoma or ban maps that show them, as they are both gun like in shape. There is no need for assault states in this country.

    I decided to delve into the world of intern massages this morning. I had to rush for the opening they had this morning, and it was worth the rush. Jason did a very good job on loosening up my stressed out areas. My lower back of course, to which he applied some stretches, and my calves have actually been hurting lately when I stood up after sitting at my desk for periods of time. Since I haven’t been able to work out, and even stretching can be a challenge at times, my calves have really been tightening up. He spent a long time on the calves. I’m still feeling the stress in my neck and shoulder, but it’s better. He suggested that I get the two hour massage next time, as the masseuse can do a lot more in two hours than in one.
    The back isn’t completely back to normal, but it’s much, much better. For $40, it was cheaper than the chiropractor and has given me at least as much benefit. I could see how going to the chiro would be so much more effective now. I may see about another trip next week, to hopefully get rid of the remainder of the “glitches” I feel in my neck and back.
    I’m just grateful that I can stand up without pain for the first time in weeks.
    I wish he’d done a foot massage. Dang.

    Paul’s tactic is brilliant. He has said that he will answer questions, but will not relinquish the floor while they are being asked. So Cruz, et al, are asking very lengthy questions—which gives Paul time to rest his voice, take a drink, eat a pizza, or whatever. Doing it ths way, he could actually be up ther for a couple of days. No way the media ignores that.

    Just got back from my class. Back started to spasm again, so I’m sitting here with a cold pack on it.
    Hubby used to give me foot rubs all the time. Now he has a recliner, so it’s harder to get one. I might ask for one tonight, after the cold pack becomes just a “pack”. He’s talking to his brother right now, and I’m getting iced down.
    The kids were fascinated with the stuff they learned tonight. The five crosses on the altar, the hole where our relic used to be (it’s disappeared some time during the years), the priest’s sacristy, the specially plumbed sink therein, the tabernacle… I actually had several of them ask about joining the choir. I hope they do. We need some younger blood up there.

    I get home and there were three pitbulls roaming my yard. I did not get out of my car until I determined they were of a friendly nature, and they were. I worried about going in the house since our dogs like to rush to the door and if Adarha saw any of them she’d run out to meet them. I worried about that creating a fight which would not end well. Adarha in particular has started fights before with other dogs. I left the the car running since I was in a hurry to get Rhuelin to Walmart to pick up his new glasses and get back home so that Niki can take Kason to Scouts and Janisen to Young Women’s Achievement Night(church program serving those mentioned in its title). The door was locked and so I knocked. That chimed our ‘door bells’ (the two dogs). Their barking alerted two of the pitbulls to approach my door. The door opened and I tried to enter as fast as I could but Chisos did her usual darting out the door. Fortunately, I stopped her with my foot and used it to fling her backwards. However, at this point one pitbull had its front paws already in my house. That alerted Adarha who immediately went right up to that dog. I don’t know what it was but Adarha began to snarl and bite at the pit. The pit snarled and bit backed. I got real worried since we let Adarha run around with no collar. That makes physically holding her difficult, especially when she’s in dog fight mode. I squished Adarha as much as I could with the door and that prevented her from leaving the house completely. A few snarls and bites later I reached down and firmly grabbed the extra skin at the back of Adarha’s neck and yanked her in. After getting her completely inside the house I slammed the door shut on the pitbull.
    Things turned out well, much better than it could have turned out so I’m grateful. I want to call anmal control but I do believe they will not come out until a loose animal is actually contained. I don’t know exatly how to contain three pitbulls. Any suggestions?

    texanadian;
    I’ve no problem whatsoever taking any dog’s life when they jeopardize me, my home, or my family, including my dogs. But I cannot just spot them and shoot them in an urban neighborhood. If this happened out where my in laws live, these dogs would be dead already. They live quite isolated from others and that’s how they take care of threatening animals. I need to know how to contain the dogs safely and call animal control. Since i’m thinkning these are actually neighbor dogs who got loose I wonder if I can call the authorities on them? Of course I’ll talk to the neighbors first and make my intention known: if I see them loose they’re fair game.

  56. texanadian Avatar

    Call the local sheriffs office and ask to speak to the animal control officer. Tell him or whoever what occured and that the dogs came after you. They will come out and deal with it. They do not want to have a complaint registered and then have someone mauled.
