The definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over and expecting different results.-Benjamin Franklin

stay the course, stay the course, stay the course, stay the course, stay the course..
“We’re not leaving so long as I’m president,” an animated Bush said in a wide-ranging White House press conference.

Got Milk?

It’s either a miracle or a scam by Indian dairy farmers…..
According to the Washington Post:
Hundreds of thousands of Indians thronged temples across India on Monday in the belief that statues of Hindu gods were drinking milk.

Personally, I’m with Vive42 where I glommed this story. Scientists are just no fun.
B. Dylan said it best..’the [...]

Oh, Osama better not run for office now, or, Racist quips aren’t just for right-wingers or former UN ambassadors anymore

Osama Bin Laden’s former ‘girlfriend‘ claims that her terrorist-ex-boyfriend had a thang for Whitney Houston, and once threatened to have Bobby Brown killed (insert tasteless comment here….).
Despite his predilection for the non-Caucasian Ms. Houston, Osama stated:
“African women are only good for a man’s lower pleasures,” bin Laden supposedly said. “What need do you have for [...]

Take off those red-state shades, or, Doc, my left eye is weaker than my right eye..

Boston Massacre III, or, why I”m sleepy this morning..

Yankees win in 10 innings in a come-from-behind win..I”m channeling August 1978 when the Yanks visited Fenway four games behind in the standings and just beat the Sox to a near-bloody pulp.
Yanks won last night 8-5, in case ya missed it (o:.
Whooooohoooooo….

letting the days go by, or , primitive cool

This weekend the wife and I trundled down to Alabama and up the mountain to Mentone to breathe some real air and stay in our favorite ‘frou frou’-free bed and breakfast (trust me when I tell you that the place isn’t as ‘cutsey’ as the linked pic). The mountains of northern Alabama and Georgia [...]

Yankees 123, Red Sox 10…and other news…

Ok, I realize this may disqualify me for friendship with more than one blogger, but I’m a Yankee fan and have been since, gasp..i’m old, 1960. Sadly, none of the early years were spent prenatally.
There are many highpoints in the sporting life…March Madness, NFL playoffs, World Series, but my absolute favorite is when the Yankees [...]

Maybe they should hire George Allen, or, Enhancing Walmart’s Image one Arab at a time

Today’s stupid racist gaffe comes from the left. Former Ambassador to the UN, Andrew Young, was recently hired by Walmart to enhance Walmart’s public image. Apparently, the public doesn’t include Arabs, Jews, or Koreans..
Andrew Young resigned from that post last night after telling an African-American newspaper that Jewish, Arab and Korean shop owners had “ripped [...]

Stop, you’re killing me..no, really..stop

Speaker of the House Hastert on defending our nation’s borders:
“I always say if we can protect Iraq’s borders against Syria and, you know, Jordan, and everyplace else, Iran, we can protect our own borders,” he said.
Meanwhile back on planet earth..from a BBC reporter reporting FROM Iraq’s border:

the task is vast.
The border that rings Iraq is [...]

Meanwhile back in Iraq (and a hard place), or, and THESE are his friends…

I know that there are still some good souls that support the war in Iraq, but I’m becoming more and more amazed by the depth of criticism about Bush and his administration by people who are naturally inclined to support him. I came across an English writer - Gerard Baker - through a link on [...]

Perry March guilty (department of redundancy department)

March convicted on 2nd degree murder among other charges. In other news, O. J. Simpson can go back to looking for the ‘golf-playing‘ real killers.

And “they’re” probably not really good at polo either, or, Tramm dives in deeeep

Tramm Hudson, Florida Republican running for the congressional seat vacated by Katherine Harris, was recounting an experience he had in the military while crossing a river, and that some folks had more trouble than others….

“I grew up In Alabama, and I understand, and I know this from my own experience, that blacks are not the [...]

Something happening here, what it is ain’t exactly clear

Taking a few steps away from the furor of the recent terrorist plot, a few things begin to smell a bit fishy. I should say here that I really don’t believe there was any grand conspiracy to boost Bush n’ Blair in the polls, but on the other hand, I do believe there are [...]

A conservative still can’t say anything racist, or, just macaque-ing around

Plenty has already been said in blog-land about George Allen’s verbal insult flung at a non-supporter who apparently had been shadowing Allen’s campaign stops. What always cracks me up is how many conservatives refuse to admit that a racist statement is a racist statement. Back a few months ago, when William Bennett [...]

My own ESP, or good GRIEF, how large is that finger..

I’ve been having a lot of GI trouble lately (not the military variety) which may either be a symptom of my age or the fact that I’ve not been able to throw our balky computer out the window for fear of injuring an innocent passer-by or animal.
Anyway, I paid a visit today to a really [...]

Ridiculous waste of time..

which is why I am entranced…It’s TILT, a game for the unbalanced..

I don’t think the headings are big enough..

But, what do I know..I’m the guy who took Minima and turned it into the San Diego Padres uniforms of the 1970s!

Border guards on the Hernando-Desoto, or, Be careful what you ask for, or Jingo bells, jingo bells…

Over at B. Krumm’s blog, he is polling us as to what is the most pressing issue that will confront Tennesseans over the next year. The last time I looked, ‘illegal immigration reform’ was about to lap the field.
I have a few questions: 1) What do we want the state legislature to do about illegal [...]

He delivered a WHAT, or, I can’t hear you, I have a cucumber in my….

This one is about a doctor, a woman, and a cucumber…..
The doc’s blog is worth a read, even beyond the veggie tales.
