Snort

The Long Road ...
Mike sent me a newer version of this "Xerox-lore version in circulation, inscribed "1/85 found in Jim's German book" [Snopes] Whatever, it's a beauty.
Now I sit me down in school
Where praying is against the rule,
For this great nation under God
Finds public mention of him odd,
Any prayer a class recites
Now violates the bill of rights;
Any time my head I bow
Becomes a federal matter now.
Teach us of stars, of pole and equator
But make no mention of their creator;
Tell us of exports in Denmark and Sweden
But not a word of what Eve did in Eden
The law is specific, the law is precise
Praying out loud is no longer nice;
Praying aloud in a public hall
Upsets believers in nothing at all.
In silence alone can we meditate
And if God gets the credit.... great!
This rule, however has a gimmick in it:
You've got to be finished in less than a minute;
So all that I ask is a minute of quiet
If I feel like praying, then maybe I'll try it;
If not, oh Lord, this plea I make,
If I die in school, my soul you'll take.

Illegal Murder

Grrrrrr.
Mood destroyer 101
Now that I have a new shiny Sony Bravia Cuisinart flat panel HD telebision, MoSup and I have gone back using NetFlix, and watching movies for the pure visual  delight of it all, if nothing else ... and we don't even have a HD player yet (bought one yesterday from WOOT).  This weekend we watched WAITRESS, which I thought I'd discovered, but it turns out everyone we know has seen it.  Yes, it qualifies as a chick flick, but one with gonads.  I truly loved it, so did MoSup.  But that's not what I wanted to tell you, which you prolly already know.  At the end of the film was a "Dedicated to Adrienne Shelly" caption.  Adrienne Shelly wrote the script, directed the movie, and acted the role of one of the waitresses.  I of course Googled her to find this - ADRIENNE SHELLY'S KILLER PLEADS GUILTY.  After the movie was finished, but before it was released, Adrienne was strangled to death by an illegal immigrant when she caught him burgling her.  This was in Manhattan.  Here's what knocked me out.
In his courtroom confession, Diego Pillco, an illegal immigrant from Ecuador, recounted how he choked the wife and mother with a sheet, strung her body up from a shower rod and fled -- hoping to make the murder look like a suicide.

Pillco, 20, will get 25 years in prison -- almost certainly followed by deportation -- as a result of today's Manhattan Supreme Court guilty plea to first degree manslaughter.

Barn Army Communications
Retro Action

In anticipation of the coming crackdown on Internet communication by enemy gummint, it struck me that the Barn Army would be well advised to have an alternative line of communication.  I'm thinking a retrograde bulletin board system based on Kermit, or somesuch.  Is there anyone out there with the expertise to advise on how this can be done?

I heard what you're saying.
"But Rodge, aren't you way over the top, even for this site, to suggest the United States gummint has been overthrown by comminists, who first siezed, and now control our print and electronic news delivery media, and that's why it's okay to park trucks loaded with fertilizer and anthrax in front of their buildings, and slash car tires and key the paint of anyone associated with them?  How can you say that?

NBC CUTS COULTER; KEEPS PEREZ
The nation's top selling conservative author has been banned from appearing on NBC, insiders tell the DRUDGE REPORT.

"We are just not going to have her on any more, it's over," a top network source explains.

But a second top suit strongly denies there is any "Coulter ban".

"Look for a re-invite, as soon as Wednesday," said the news executive, who asked not to be named.

NBC's TODAY show abruptly cut Ann Coulter from its planned Tuesday broadcast, claiming the schedule was overbooked.

Executives at NBC TODAY replaced Coulter with showbiz reporter Perez Hilton, who recently offered $1,000 to anyone who would throw a pie at Ann Coulter. Hilton is also launching a new book this week, RED CARPET SUICIDE.


Coulter was set to unveil her new book, GUILTY.

One network insider claims it was the book's theme -- a brutal examination of liberal bias in the new era -- that got executives to dis-invite the controversialist.

"We are just not interested in anyone so highly critical of President-elect Obama, right now," a TODAY insider reveals. "It's such a downer. It's just not the time, and it's not what our audience wants, either."
  Others inside the peacock network strongly deny the book's theme is at issue.

For the book, Coulter reportedly received the most-lucrative advance ever paid to a conservative author.

The TODAY show eagerly invited the author months ago, for her first network interview on GUILTY.

The exclusive was to air during the show's 7 AM hour. The cut came Monday afternoon.

Coulter was also to appear on the TODAY's fourth hour. A host even teased the segment saying the 'conservative pit bull and bestselling author' would be a guest.

NBC's cable outlet, MSNBC, will also become a Coulter-free zone, insiders explain. Morning host Joe Scarborough is said to be concerned with the new ban. "He's working to overrule it," tips a source.
