A marine says “No, Ma’am” to Sen. Feinstein in an open letter:
Senator Dianne Feinstein,
I will not register my weapons should this bill be passed, as I do not believe it is the government’s right to know what I own. Nor do I think it prudent to tell you what I own so that it may be taken from me by a group of people who enjoy armed protection yet decry me having the same a crime. You ma’am have overstepped a line that is not your domain. I am a Marine Corps Veteran of 8 years, and I will not have some woman who proclaims the evil of an inanimate object, yet carries one, tell me I may not have one.
I am not your subject. I am the man who keeps you free. I am not your servant. I am the person whom you serve. I am not your peasant. I am the flesh and blood of America.
I am the man who fought for my country. I am the man who learned. I am an American. You will not tell me that I must register my semi-automatic AR-15 because of the actions of some evil man.
I will not be disarmed to suit the fear that has been established by the media and your misinformation campaign against the American public.
We, the people, deserve better than you.
Respectfully Submitted,
Joshua Boston

Video points out the hypocrisy of the entertainment types on gun control.
WARNING: LOTS of violence, bad language.
But it sure makes a point…. -

From Twitchy.com – Things That Work Better than Congress:
1. New Coke
2. Biden’s Cognitive Skills
3. hollywood marriages
4. My poor liver
5. A woman’s body’s ability to shut that whole thing down.
6. Mayan prophesies
7. Really old dudes in the self-checkout line
8. Sandra Fluke’s political rally’s
9. A Liberal Boycott of Chick-Fil-A
10. Small business
11. NFL replacement refs. And that’s saying something.
Oooooh, the fun we could have with this! /rubbing hands, grinning -

Sounds like Squawkster isn’t moderated – the peons get a message that says Slow Down – ya can’t post more than once a minute. -
Re #11 – better than Congress – more from Twitchy.com
Broken clocks. Even they’re right twice a day.
That’s a good point. -
Warren Jeffs strikes again -telling followers to prepare for “end of the world” tonight.
What WILL it take for his followers to get a clue? Maybe when the world wakes up to the next sunrise?
But will his followers be here? I hope that there hasn’t been any major shipments of Kool-Aid ™ to their compounds lately. -

I may steal some of those for my Wall of Wit and Wisdom. Outstanding. -
I kind of like the one credited to Harry Truman, “Never kick a fresh turd”

HItlery is back in the hospital with a blood clot(s) and it is not know where these clot(s) exist. I do not think we will hear Hitlery testify on the Benghazi Bungle for quite some time, if ever. If the Rs has any sense about them at all (which is in serious doubt) they would make sure that this lack of transparency and refusal to testify hangs around her neck like a rotting albatross and she is driven from politics for ever.

I was grandfathered into the system because of my caducity, seniority, reputation and eminence in the WordPress world of blogging. AHIP you might say. 😉

I am not one for conspiracy theories but to my skeptical eye, this Hillary thing stinks to high heaven. Over the years when a Demoratic elder hatesperson falls ill there is always weeks of coverage on that persons condition. Not this time with Hill. She supposedly fell down and went boom. Okay. Waiting. Then things got silent about her. We have been inundated with Bush 1 updates since his illness bested him way back in November. Something just does not “feel” right with this….. and I am not at all surprised. -
/Leave it to Boneface to take an innocent decent post about advice and turn it into something about feces. You need to see a doctor about your coprophilia.

Wulp Happy New Year y’all.
I have fresh boxes of Cubans to get into the humidor in the second level of the cave. May be awhile before I get another order so i must savor moments like these in anticipation in relaxing in billowing clouds of my own second hand smoke.
See ya next year………. God Willing -
caducity

I bumped the WAF thread up.

When you wallow with pigs, expect to get dirty
I see no problem with this.
What happens when you wallow with hamsters?

You get those annoying wood shavings down your back. They really itch.

You DON’T want to wallow with gators.

Speaking of which…
These two boys are friends of one of my nephews. Pray that they made it to the shore and are just trying to find their way out of the swamps. This lake is so thick with gators you could walk across the lake on their backs and never get your feet wet. -

Now you know I was not complaining about your superior access. Certainly not after having to look up caducity, and finding it means “the infirmity or weakness of old age; senility”
But you got me with AHIP: ???
America’s Health Insurance Plans (AHIP) is a national political advocacy and trade association
2013 AHIP Medicare Advantage and Medicare Part D Certification
a program that will pay the premiums for private health insurance for low-income people with HIV or AIDS who are not eligible for Medicaid -

Eight years in the Corps and he is already up to the rank of E-4 Corporal. Wow
what a rank grabber?

Folks. We’re saved, we’re saved.
Fiscal Cliff deal is eminent. -
HUH? re my #10 – I surely meant #7 (that’s what I get for doing year end paperwork while trying to post)
-

Va a estar lloviendo gatos y perros esta noche. What shall we name this rain event? I’m going with Amaya.

I fixed it.

For those making over $400K there will definitely be a tax increase. For the rest of us, there will definitely be an O-Care tax increase for openers, and then the trickle down tax increase to follow.

“Never kick a fresh turd.”
Reminds me of something my brother used to tell me: “I wouldn’t s**t you, you’re my favorite turd.”
Yes, he was a keeper! -
Office help’s printer died last week, and all attempts to resuscitate it failed. I went to Staples (where I shop now instead of Office Depot, they ticked me off some time back with a foray into politics that was unnecessary), and found a deal on an Epson printer with two paper trays and a document feeder. It was a closeout deal, originally priced for over $250, shelf priced at $139, checkout priced at $89.
Office Help is delirious that she can now make copies of our job packets without doing it one page at a time. Sometimes those things can be 10-15 pages, what with permits, locate notifications, bids/revisions, etc. -
Bloomberg financial whiz(dizz) anchor stunned by this truth spoken on Dec.19th.

We’re toast.
So all of this fiscal trouble we’re in is because we HAVE been adhering to The Constitution? I’d think it was a spoof piece, but noticed it was NYT. I guess absurdity is just par for the course with them any more. “Toast” is right.
-
On another note, I’d like to dedicate this tune to our heroes in Washington for trying to save us from going over the cliff even though I was looking forward to going over.
Special thanks to that Soetoro fella and Weepy. -
Just watched the 4 part series “the making of” – but THIS may be the most memorable audio snippet…….

Here we are on the last day of the year. Has anyone ever wondered why the calendar is how it is? The shortest day of the year is Dec 21, one would think that would be a reasonable stop/start point, or the longest day in June, but no, we wait 10 more days?!? from the shortest day (in the northern hemisphere), why? To arbitrarily choose a day 10 days after the shortest day seems to me to be, well, rather arbitrary.

Another band I cannot listen to. Shame really cause I liked this song.

Sorry Miss Tedtam. 🙁

Just heard on radio…
Texans have scored 7 offensive touchdowns in their last 60 drives.
Peweeee. -
a whole 7?? Why that is better than 10%
/sarc off -
Heard the deal stalled. Maybe, just maybe…

#40 Hamous
Au contraire, it’s the NYT that’s toast. 🙂 -
#56 Phil: They coulda survived that. . . . .

Raining heavily at Hobby.

Hey tedtam
Want a really special picture to wish the Hamsters happy new year with? PM me via facebook.
Muhwhahahahahahahaha
I could post it but Hammie has not given me front page permission
/And I ain’t asking for nor do I want front page permission. Enjoying my retirement too much. -
Hey Bunsonburner
See my 64 and reply here. I’ll email it to ya. -
Happy New Year Hamsters. Can’t stay up until midnight. Will check in tomorrow morning to discover what wreckage Congress has left us. 🙂
-
Happy New Years, Hamsters!!!
-
My most sincere desire for all here is that 2013 is a year we al come closer to God. Keep that goal in your thoughts and prayers. Seek the Lord and how to better serve Him during 2013.
-
Happy New Year sleepy heads. Got some last minute preps to do for today. Y’all enjoy.

Good New Year’s Day morning Hamsters. Rainy, breezy, and down to 49 at 9, misery index is high and likely to remain so all day. Some in the neighborhood managed to set off their fireworks last night during the breaks in the rain, mostly between 7-9 before the heavy stuff rolled through. Not as much activity to be heard around midnight by which time we had turned in. Not much fire hazard fortunately.
Stay warm and dry by the TV today watching wall to wall bowl games. Not a day fit for man nor beast outside. Rose Bowl at 4 this afternoon has our attention. Go Badgers. -
NYD thread is up.
