    WB,

    It isn’t the #$%$#$ Houston Traffic which I will jump into 45 minutes from now. It is still Friday Summer Vacation lite, but next week HISD reopens and we will get the unmitagated and fully caffeinated Houston Traffic.

    Six more months and I will be able to roll over and snooze and feel sorry for you clods still having to fight the traffic.

    Looks like you are behind a concrete traffic barrier. From the burn marks, visiting the scene of a prior exploit from which you derive your handle?

    The dirt may very well be too red for Louisiana, but it’s real flat and the crop growing in the background could be sugar cane. If it is Oklahoma, it might be milo? Also the ditch could be for irrigation.

    Well at least our fearless leader is enjoying some MUCH NEEDED R&R
    Luxury Getaways for the President: Martha’s Vineyard and Beyond

    Martha’s Vineyard is a summer resort island off the coast of Massachusetts. Some Vineyard estates, particular those in the towns of Edgartown and Chilmark, home to Blue Heron Farm, rent for even more — as much as $75,000 a week or higher. But you wouldn’t know it by just driving around the island, Taylor said.

    #15 SD: The woolly mammoth is an elephant, correct? Elephants are vegetarian and eat a whole lot, correct? Therefore, if the mammoth was found in the wissin arctic there must have been a different climate in order for there to be enough vegetation for the critters to survive and reproduce, correct? In order for that critter to be perfectly preserved, there must have been a sudden and dramatic climate change to cause the critter to be frozen in place for 40,000 years thus preserving it. If it thawed and re-froze repeatedly, it would not be pristine. So one can conclude that sudden and dramatic climate changes have happened before and will happen again. The man-made global warming advocates are idiots!

    I’ll leave you for a while with this:

    No one can read our Constitution without concluding that the people who wrote it wanted their government severely limited; the words “no” and “not” employed in restraint of government power occur 24 times in the first seven articles of the Constitution and 22 more times in the Bill of Rights.

    Perhaps Billy Graham was a poor choice, perhaps Graham modified his stand over the years. But the writer is trying to drive home an important doctrinal point that is a line of demarcation between the Anglicans/Catholics/Lutherans and some other Christians; that point being that man has no role in his own salvation, that he can do nothing to earn it, that it is an unmerited gift of Grace from the Father, through Christ and driven by the Holy Spirit.

    Michelle’s Separate Travel Costs Taxpayers Thousands.

    Michelle Obama Thursday traveled separately from President Obama to Martha’s Vineyard, costing taxpayers thousands in additional expenses to get her a few hours of extra vacation time.
    Mrs. Obama and her daughters arrived just before 2 pm Thursday on a U.S. government jet, according to the Martha’s Vineyard Times, which got its information from the local airport. The first lady’s office has been silent on her travel. President Obama arrived in the evening along with the family dog Bo.

    Nah, Barry’s team LOVES birthers. They want them to continue this crusade. They can use it to paint all conservatives as goonier than road lizards.

    Reminds me of a South Park episode. The kids get involved in the Troofer movement and, after a spaghetti bowl of tracks, it all leads back to Bush/Cheney being behind all the conspiracies. Their reasoning was that if a certain percentage of nuts out there want to believe that the government was all-powerful enough to pull 9/11 off it could only help their prestige by encouraging them. When the secret was revealed the kids asked Bush “Then who really caused 9/11?” Bush said “Oh that was a bunch of pissed off Muslims.”

    Whether you believe in the troofer arguments or not….
    Whether you believe TBO loves the troofers or not…

    Hammie: have you ever seen an example where he has crossed the line? I have seen lots of examples him upholding the clearly written rule of law only to be severely attacked by the likes of Janet Incompetano. He has been attacked for upholding the law for most of his career; I can easily understand why he may appear “prickly” at times. That does not mean that he would swing as far outside the realm of reasonability on the right as the other side seems to live on the left.

    Bone – one case a few years ago in particular involved a fed investigation into alleged civil rights abuses by the sheriffs department. He held a news conference where he publicly announced he would not cooperate with the federal investigation in any way, refusing to allow interviews with his personnel or access to any documents. It took a federal lawsuit to get him to comply. He ain’t just “prickly”. The more notoriety he gains, the more he seems to think he’s above the law. He’s a little too “Bull Connor” for me.

    Joe “The D!psh!t” Biden makes a practice out of living up to his monniker.

    “Remember what I told you last time: if I had hair like yours I’d be president,” the 68-year-old VP with a well-groomed but receding silver hairline said.

    If that moron thinks that his lack of hair or its color is what is keeping him out of the big chair, he is even dumberer than I thought.

    #55 Hammie: Was Janet in the Justice Dept at the time when the “investigation” was said to take place? If yes, you must consider the broader context between those 2. She was pretty much the Ronnie Earl digging dirt on anyone who got in her way or the way of the liberal machine. Did the “investigators” ever find any evidence of criminality?

    #59 – I believe it was in 2009 but I don’t think it matters who was in the justice department. You can’t decide unilaterally which laws you’re going to comply with just because you don’t want them investigating you. As far as what they found, don’t know, since he just recently agreed to comply with the DOJ.

    #26 I am baffled as to why anyone on earth listens to the Warmmongers any more.

    “Green” aliens might object to the environmental damage humans have caused on Earth and wipe us out to save the planet. “These scenarios give us reason to limit our growth and reduce our impact on global ecosystems. It would be particularly important for us to limit our emissions of greenhouse gases, since atmospheric composition can be observed from other planets,” the authors write.

    I don’t remember the “West Memphis 3” murders, but on reading up a bit just now, what a tragic sordid case. Both the young victims and the various suspects (in addition to the 3 who were sent to prison and are now released) seemed to be doomed from the start, due to dysfunctional families, and/or bad choices on their own part. And then the police investigation seemed to be hopelessly bungled. This case will never be solved now with any clarity/certainty.

    Seems to me that it is lack of a work ethnic in the population that causes a country to be a 3rd-world latrine in the first place. Plus other attributes of a positive, dynamic world-view. I’ve heard too many stories of how sub-Saharan Africans don’t want to change their diets to grow new crops that Western scientists have developed that could help their famine-prone region. They’d rather walk to the UN Aid Stations for food when their old crops fail time after time.

    #111 Tedtam, that was great, BUTT they said that Smokey Yunick never really cheated, he just bent the rules, not so, in the early 50’s he ran Hudson inline sixes because they had a large displacement for a six, 300 CID, I think, but the rod angle was so off center that it caused the main bearings to fail quickly, so what did he do? He welded up the bosses and line bored the crank a few micro inches to one side!! The man was a DAYAAM genus. Later he campaigned a 66 Chevy Chevelle that was 7/8 scale of the original car!! The NASCAR folks checked it with a template and he was disqualified.
    Oh and as a disclaimer, I’ve not kept up with NASCAR in a loong time BUTT, I’m guessin’ Tim can fill you in with more details! 😉

    OOPS! Oh Crap, I stand corrected,….if wiky is right;

    As with most successful racers, Yunick was a master of the grey area straddling the rules. Perhaps his most famous exploit was his #13 1966 Chevrolet Chevelle, driven by Curtis Turner. The car was so much faster than the competition during testing that they were certain that cheating was involved; some sort of aerodynamic enhancement was strongly suspected, but the car’s profile seemed to be entirely stock, as the rules required. It was eventually discovered that Yunick had lowered and modified the roof and windows and raised the floor (to lower the body) of the production car. Since then, NASCAR required each race car’s roof, hood, and trunk to fit templates representing the production car’s exact profile.

    FWIW; The Hudson’s were 308 cid inline sixes.

    For 1956, design of the senior Hudsons was given over to designer Richard Arbib, which resulted in the “V-Line” styling motif, a combination of “V” motifs that carried Hudson’s triangular corporate logo theme. Sales fell below 1955 figures. For 1957, Hudson dropped the shorter-wheelbase Wasp line, selling only the Hornet Custom and Super, which featured a lowered profile and slightly updated styling.

    With a wider front track than Nash used, Hudson was the better handling car, and was powered by the famed 308 cu in (5.0 L) Hornet Six with the optional high-compression cylinder head and dual-carburetor manifold (“Twin-H Power”); the Twin H would disappear at the end of the 1956 model year.

    What should be my post #112 uis waiting moderation. I think it’s because it has the bad caca word in the link address. The address is hidden but the link will take the reader to see the caca word for him or herself.

    Where in the world would “remote villages” be able to “capture the hydrogen fuel”? Not too many places that I can think of. But an ingenious discovery, for sure.

    What kind of bulges is Daverino talking about on your male gymnasts?

    One other thing, on a more serious note, how many guys could do the “Iron Cross”? When I was younger and weighed 150 Lbs, I could press 110 Lbs with one arm, BUTT I could only hold the Iron Cross for a few seconds before I started shaking uncontrollably. I do admire these guys.
