FCC Nationalizes Boeing

News From The Secretariat The NLRB (aka SEIU) has told Boeing that the airline giant must stop expanding its operations in South Carolina, a right-to-work state, and build more factories in Washington.

“   In what may be the strongest signal yet of the new pro-labor orientation of the National Labor Relations Board under President Obama, the agency filed a complaint Wednesday seeking to force Boeing to bring an airplane production line back to its unionized facilities in Washington State instead of moving the work to a nonunion plant in South Carolina. [...] Although manufacturers have long moved plants to nonunion states, the board noted that Boeing officials had, in internal documents and news interviews, specifically cited the strikes and potential future strikes as a reason for their 2009 decision to expand in South Carolina.  [Labor Board Tells Boeing New Factory Breaks Law] ” Just days after Premier Obama instructed the FFC  to force NBC into using George Soros news tailors,  this.  With no hyperbole intended, may I suggest that this administration is the Manson Family, crashing Thanksgiving dinner,while the men respond by continuing to play pinochle in the basement?  Well, at least we found out what happened to Jimmy Hoffa.  He's working for Obama.  One more thing.  Boeing?  They have all the parts I need to get my B-52 in the air, and then they'd have no more problems with the Obamunists. I don't get it. PS.  For all the kiddies out there in the Dauily Krotch playpen, guess what "controlling the means of production" refers to? So who is the fascist?  Hmmmm.  Who is the Commie?  Hmmmm?

Tain't no python

THIS AIN'T NO PYTHON! This is a 15 foot Eastern Diamondback rattlesnake - the largest ever caught on record, in fact. This snake was found just south of Jacksonville FL.

The legend is that Barn Army Lt. CPL Don M was in Florida to pick up an extradited fugitive, when he heard screams and hollerin' from deputies behind the jail.  Don jumped on what he thought was a python and strangled it. When he found out it was a rattlesnake,  he turned ashen and said, "Sumbitch, I'm allergic to rattlesnake pizen! Good thing it only bit me in the ass, what's saddle-leathered and don't puncture so good." “         More facts. · One bite from a snake of this size would contain enough venom to kill over 40 full grown men. · The head of this snake alone is larger than the hand of a normal sized man. · A bite from those fangs would comparable to being stabbed by two curved, 1/4 inch diameter screwdrivers. · The knife being used to draw out the fangs for the bottom picture has a blade around 4 inches long. · This snake is estimated to have weighed over 170 pounds. (How much do you weigh?) · Notice the girth of this snake as compared to the leg in the first picture (and he is not a small man). · A snake of this size could easily swallow a 2 year-old child (and dogs, pigs, etc). · A snake this size has an approximately 5 1/2 foot accurate striking distance. (The distance for an average size rattlesnake is about 2 feet.) · This snake has probably been alive since George Bush Sr. was President. · Now just ask yourself these questions: What has this snake been feeding on and where are its offspring? ” We're all proud of you Don!

‘Atlas Shrugged’: First Movie to Target the Tea Party About 9 million adults are active Tea Partiers, and 45 million support the movement, a CBS/New York Times poll says.

“   Atlas Shrugged, a novel in which society’s most productive citizens choose to disappear, was published in 1957, and filmmakers have spent nearly every year since trying to adapt it. They finally succeeded, and the first part of what’s planned as a trilogy comes out April 15. If you didn’t know that, it’s likely you’re not a member of the Tea Party. If you didn’t know that, it’s likely you’re not a member of the Tea Party. How 'Atlas Shrugged' Shocked Hollywood's Marketing Machine “ "Shocking," one executive said about the healthy business the low-budget film has been doing considering its "awful" marketing plan. The greater the Democrat's effort the heavier the world bore down on their shoulders.  Shrug.

Wilmer McClean

αΩ

Apropos of nothing, here's something even War Between the States (aka Civil War) buffs prolly don't know.  At least this one didn't. The initial engagements on July 18, 1861, in what would become the First Battle of Bull Run, fought on July 21, took place on Wilmer McLean's farm in Manassas, VA.  Brigadier General P.G.T. Beauregard, CSA, later reminisced:  "A comical effect of this artillery fight was the destruction of the dinner of myself and staff by a Federal shell that fell into the fire-place of my headquarters at the McLean House." Wilmer McClean, an erstwhile major of the Virginia militia,  was too old at 47 to muster for this kerfluffle.  Instead, McClean worked as a sugar broker for the CSA.   Because of his proximity to the Union army, and perhaps a second battle of Bull Run that ruined his tomato patch, Wilmer moved his family about 120 miles south to Appomattox County, Virginia. (I see light bulbs flickering). Yup.  "On April 9, 1865, the war came back to Wilmer McLean when Confederate General Robert E. Lee surrendered to Lieutenant General Ulysses S. Grant in the parlor of McLean's house near Appomattox Court House, effectively ending the Civil War." Later, McLean is supposed to have said "The war began in my front yard and ended in my front parlor"  Sadly, this CSA patriot ended his days in infamy, working for ... for *why God why?* the Internal Revenue Service. See more fun details at Wikipedia, from whence I took this story. Tom Mann

Wheeler Dealers

Wheeler Dealers It's cracking good

My new most favorite show on the telly is Wheeler Dealers.  It's a cracking good show from Britain, about buying semi-junker classic cars at a good price (first season about 300-400 Quid) and refurbishing for less than 1000, total.  The real prize in the series, for me, is Edd, the mechanic.  Edd takes the hand-off from Mike (who finds and sells) and does all  repairs.  What's unique is his down to earth approach, where every trivial job is performed in detail.  As a result, I finish each show with a semi-burning desire to go outside and work on my own junker.  You will learn stuff.  The patois is marvelous ("dodgy American dashboards,"  "pattern parts (third party," "bonnet (hood).").  Discovery Channel begins with season one, but the series is in it's seventh year across the pond, so lots more to come.

Rep. Frank: Administration 'wasting time' with online poker crackdown

"Go after the people responsible for empty houses, not full houses," Frank added. "I'm not saying violate the law, but to give this priority in law enforcement over some other things I think is a terrible idea and I think the administration is wrong on this." ” Okay Barney, that would be you.  X marks the place where I was going to plant the wonderful SNL video,  that raked Bawney over the coals and pinned blame squarely on his puffy shoulders.   Should've been  easy, I've embedded it at least three times before, and just had to find one of them.  Did the Google site search at the top of the page.  "Can't be found" Okay, I went to (Google owned) Blogger internal search - that will find anything.  Nope, items not found.  I did an open Google search;  found several  (Google owned) YouTube  links, but none of them worked (one played, but there was no sound).

Here's your receipt

We're buying the country; we want a receipt

“ April 15th (well, this year, April 18th) gets billed as tax day, it’s actually “purchase the federal government for a year” day. We’re not just spending money. We’re buying something. And over the last year, the centrist-left think tank Third Way and the center-left journal Democracy have mounted an extraordinary campaign to persuade politicians and the IRS that we should be told what, exactly, we’re purchasing. The idea is to give each and every taxpayer a receipt. [Ezra "ya doesn't have to call me Krugman" Klein] ” Ahem. "Center-left," when used by a Liberal is not quite what anyone else would use. That said, and knowing these guys like I know these guys, I'll guess this "receipt" business appeals to Klein because it shows National Defense costing as much as Social Security, fer chrisake!  Is there anybody who won't see red over that injustice? Still, I kind of like the idea of letting people see what they're buying.  About half the adults in the country might be shamed to see they haven't paid a red cent for any of this stuff.  Of course, that there right at the end is where the real tale is told.  This is a credit card statement from the Gummint Credit Card Co. It shows you made the minimum payment on your bill. A debt you will never pay off, because the gummint sumbitch is now actually with you everywhere you go, and keeps buying sh*t you don't want, don't need, and for people who, in many cases, shouldn't even be here! If Ezra really wanted people to enjoy the thrill of buying gummint services, employees would pick up their pay, and move from table to table while each agency took their "share" from your poke.  Prolly cause a tax riot though.  That's why gummint made it illegal to take deductions, personal like.

A man and a woman who had never met before, but were married to other people, found themselves assigned to the same sleeping room on a trans-continental train. Though initially embarrassed and uneasy over shearing a room, they were both very tired and fell asleep quickly; he in the upper berth, she in the lower. At 1:00 AM, the man leaned down and gently woke the woman saying, Ma'am. I'm so sorry to bother you, but would you be willing to to reach into the closet and get me a second blanket?  I'm awfully cold." "I have a better idea," she replied. "Just for tonight, let's pretend we're married." "Wow! Yes, that's a great idea," he exclaimed. "Good," she replied.  "Get your own f*ing blanket" After a moment of silence, he farted. The End

Liberal's Assault on American Identity

The Assault on American Identity and Cohesion

“   At the end of the book, the authors describe a commemoration that was held at the Alamo in 1999. There were thousands of people there–one attendee they noticed was “an Anglo graduate student from the University of Texas, filled with passionate intensity…plain, metal-rimmed glasses rested down on his nose, and his goatee was trimmed a la Leon Trotsky.” They also noticed a Hispanic family with three girls ages 8 to 12. The father, a CPA with a Wharton degree, photographed his family in front of the limestone walls of the chapel and told them briefly about the Alamo, telling the girls that “it stood for courage and integrity, virtues they needed to cultivate in their own lives.” At that point, the Anglo graduate student arrived at the chapel door. He asked, “Why are you even here today? Don’t you know what this place stands for? It represents the rape and destruction of your people.” [Full- Chicago Boyz]

A Jew in Germany

“   I’d been living in Germany for a couple years already. At that time, I had just moved into a small one-bedroom apartment in Leipzig with a shower in the kitchen. The boiler was also broken, so it was a cold shower in the kitchen. My windows looked out onto a concrete wall, an elevated train track, and some graffiti. I cycled my clunky East German bike around town, worked minimally, paid no rent, and lived pretty decadently.    One day when I didn't have much to do, I was milling around the music section at the big-box electronics store. I was looking at some indie band and started chatting with this other guy with great indie taste. He was about to go buy a record; I said I'd heard good things about it. He said, “Write down your address, I'll give you a copy." A few days later there was a stack of CDs at my doorstep. Charming! I texted thanks, and we set up a coffee date. ...  When he asked me where I was from, I told him that I was American and that my father was Israeli [...] ” Alternate title: A Jew in Berkeley

NSFW Trailer (Boobs) I remember a do about D.H. Lawrence's "Lady Chatterley's Lover" some years ago.  Something about being banned in Boston?  Yawn.  Didn't like the title. Later, I greeted the movie (there have been several) with the same disinterest. I knew there was sex in it, but so was there in Debbie Does Dallas, and without the pretense.  Once I landed on an English version of LCL on HBO, or Cinemax, but it flat failed capture my interest (despite my penchant for period movies).  Anyway, I was scanning my NetFlix recommendations, and a "Lady Chatterley" came up, rated 4½ .  The 161 minute running time looked daunting, but I clicked it anyway.  I don't know that I've ever seen a distinctly British story filmed in French  before, and that caused me to remind myself that this was England, and not France, a few times.   I loved this movie. It managed to evoke in me a feeling of what living in the early 20th century English countryside was like. Insights into the British aristocracy's view of things were at times startling.  All in all this is a sweet movie; not at all what I expected.  I think more women than men will like this version, and I agree with the 4½ rating.  But you have to be in a relaxed mood.

“   Under a White House plan, the Homeland Security Department will have far-reaching oversight over all civilian agency computer networks. The proposal would codify much of the administration's memo from July 2010 expanding DHS's cyber responsibilities for civilian networks. The White House, however, is taking those responsibilities further, according to a source familiar with the document. The administration drafted a legislative proposal to give DHS many, if not all, of the same authorities for the .gov networks that the Defense Department has for the .mil networks. Federal News Radio recently viewed a draft copy of the legislative proposal. [full] I have seen the three word phrase "Federal News Radio” used just once. By me.
