I’m So Feelin’ This.

My Life.

I Now Have Some Street Cred!

Fo’ shizzle my readizzle!  Er… whatever that’s supposed to mean. 

It seems the Grande Dame of Geeksville, D&D, was causing some major troubles (which starts with “T”, and that rhymes with “P”, and that stands for “Paladin”) in a Wisconsin Prison.  So THE MAN(!) took the game away from the worthless criminal choir-boy who was the major Player Character protagonist.  That warden is so gonna get it (as an NPC, of course). 

So hardened thugs play role-playing games?  Does that mean I get to wear my baseball caps at a jaunty angle now?  Can I belt my britches somewhere south of my wedding tackle? 

Poor prisoners… Do the crime, do the time. Pay the price, you can’t roll the dice.

And since D&D is such a rules heavy system, try playing it without the books.  Yet another reason to love Savage Worlds;160 pages, no fluff, easy to memorize.  I guess I need to start parking some of that data in my neural-net since I’ll be on an anti-.gov watch list at some point.  You never know when the Political Kommisars will take me to the “Re-Education Camps.”

“You can have my dice when you pry them from my cold dead hands!”

Never Take The Stake Out

The vamp just won’t die. We’re just supposed to take it. Anyone else getting to the “rolled up news paper” phase that the 2nd Amendment gives us?

Well… Hitler Loses It Again.

A short spell ago, we saw Der Führer lose his spit over the Masada ACR.   We now know his dark shadow creeps into other facets of our American life.  Those damn Socialists try to run everything!

Budget Smudget! Here’s Some Real Bad News This Week!

Well SUCKAGE!

I’m going to go pout!

Bad Weekend For The Savings Account.

I just had the most expensive get-together with my fiends I’ve ever had.  Friday night I spent some time at a friend’s where we played some trivia games.  T’was a fun time had on a cold night.  As I pulled out of their apartment complex, the tire pressure warning went nutters and I pull off the road into a parking lot.  Sure enough, the right front tire was flatter than a non-teleprompter Obama rant. In the cold, with the sub par jack that comes with the Mazda 3, I change the tire. 

There was some drama with some rather suspicious folks asking me and The Mrs. if we “needed a ride.”  Hand on my concealed gun, I replied, “No thanks.”  A little more drama when the piss poor jack slipped out of the hard point and started to list about 30 degrees.  All was over come, the tire was replaced with the “doughnut”, and the offending tire was wedged into its carry hole. 

Later that night (morning) as I was winding down from the fun and warming up from the cold, I realized I didn’t take my damn phone off my belt.  The Treo’s touch screen was shattered and the only reason I didn’t lose it all together was the screen protector held the shards in place.  So scratch one smart phone which will have to be replaced to the tune of between $300 and $450 depending upon what I want to upgrade to.  Since there’s nothing I really like out there, I’m not sure what to do about it. 

The next day, I take the tire to be fixed.  As the tire-guy and I pull the tire from the back of the holding well, we both say, “Shit!”  The wheel was bent to the tune of about a centimeter.  And then it hits me.  The FIRST parking space we tried had a DEEEEEP pot hold that was concealed by shadow and water.  I guess I hit it at just the right place for it to bend the inside of the wheel.  It didn’t shake the tire loose until I got up to speed on the road after leaving. *sigh-and-migraine-salute* $340’s later an OEM wheel is ordered and should be in today.  If the tire is ok, that should be it. If not, 2 new tires will also be part of the damage. 

You know… I’m not sure if I like my friends this much.

SOTU, Obama… A Lie By Any Other Name…

Wow…  I was right on 10 of my 12 points (I may have missed Cap and Trade while yelling at the TV or going for the Bromo).   We’ll see about #12 (Market tank) tomorrow.  But I never thought that even Barry would sink so low as to conduct an attack on a separate branch of government.  You megalomaniacal twerp.  You are the President of the United States.  You are peered with The SCOTUS and the Congress, you can’t, for the love of God, descend into childish attacks of a peered branch of government!  Talk about the job being above his pay grade. 

You see Barry, I can verbally attack you, Congress, and The SCOTUS.  That is my right as a US citizen.  But when you are coronated assume The Office of POTUS, you have to start acting like an adult who knows the difference between a private citizen’s opinions and The Head of the Executive Branch’s Policy Statements.  You have to be Presidential.  You have to realize that EVERYTHING YOU SAY is a matter of policy and will be disected as such. You can’t throw out hate and anger as part of an OFFICIAL DUTY OF YOUR OFFICE!  And certainly it doesn’t help you that your focus of hate and anger is that SCOTUS upheld the 1st Amendment.  Alito, so shocked by this, incredulously responded TO THE LIE about foriegn corporations durring the speech by mouthing, “Not true!” 

Barry, the reason you DON’T call out a co-equal branch of government in a childish attack  is simple.  I mean, beside the fact that it makes you look like a tool who can’t handle his office. They have LOOOOOONG memories.  Kennedy wrote the opinion that you detest.  Anthony “do you love me” Kennedy.  Your swing vote.  You just pissed off your swing vote.  You dolt! You may be used to using rabble rousing techniques to push a frenzy over people as a “Commie Community Organizer” to do your bidding, causing holy hell with particular constituents who then hammer phone banks; but you HAVE to gain cooperation from peers.  The SCOTUS doesn’t have a phone bank.  The SCOTUS doesn’t work that way.  DUMB BARRY!  Really dumb.

The next part of the speech that should cause everyone much dyspepsia was the insistence that HE is going to get HIS way with HIS agenda no matter what the people want.  Meaning he is King and we, the peasants, don’t get a vote.  Good luck with that Barry.  You may not have to worry about a vote since it seems you’ve given up all hope of a second term.  But others in the House and Senate DO have to face the people in less than a year.  I don’t see the majority of them having such a, “Let them eat cake,” attitude toward those who keep them in their seats.  None of them want to go home or become a back bencher. 

I guess the silver lining is that maybe in 2012, people will look for true substance over “Rock Star” having learned a hard lesson.  Of course, Republicans have to give them a real option.  Not too likely while the RINOs control the party.

EDIT:   I guess we didn’t have to wait until Friday for the fallout.   Sometimes it sucks to be right.

DIY. The Free Market Works

Ford, the only domestic car maker I’ve ever cared to own, shows that when you tell the King to keep His Schilling, you can dance to your own tune AND make it work for ya’. 

Kudos.

Patrick Hughes; Trying To Bag A RINO.

I know I’m in Texas, but since the biggest mistake in US history, the Senate races are ostensibly national matters.  If you are in Illinois, you may wish to give a hand to Parick Hughes. He is up against the RINO establishment in Illinois trying to free another Senate seat from a liberal. 

In order to take back the country, we are going to have to take back one of the parties.  Right now, the best bet is the Republican party.  And to do that, RINOs like Kirk will have to be booted from office by relative unknowns like Hughes.  And the RINO is being given cover by the entrenched MSM.  They know what a victory for a Conservative in the primary would mean.  So they’ve circled the wagons around McCain Kirk to make sure that doesn’t happen.

If you have friends in IL, give them a touch, text, or tweet and try to get out the vote on Feb, 2nd.   If Hughes can beat Kirk, it might be a bigger victory than Scott Brown’s.
