Pretty simple case for our first Crime Solver.  Girl A walked into the ladies room at Club Sophie to see what happened to her boyfriend's sister (B).  Turns out the sister had a  coronary trombone and died.  Girl C is the Medical Examiner on the scene, smelling A's breath to determine whether she, a 17 yr old minor,  had been consuming alcohol.

Case Closed.  No Charges Filed.

We'll roll the score so very high,

Well-a Boola, Boo, Boola, Boola, Boo,
Boola, Boo, Boola, Boola, Boola, Boo!


 
After graduating from Yale (Summa Bin Lauday) in Political Philosophy on Wednesday, I happenstanced  into Professor Craig Wright's course "MUSI 112: Listening to Music." 

....you will become the purveyors of classical music thereafter. You, the intelligentsia of the next generation, will be those that preserve this great treasure of Western culture and it is a great treasure of Western culture.-Professor Craig Wright
Just finished my fourth class.  I know for sure that if I was actually sitting in that classroom,  I'd flunk.  Badly. And, given what I perceive to be Prof. Wright's low tolerance for slackers and low lifers, I would probably be caned as well.  So what a joy not having to worry about the minutia; learning what this stuff (♩,♪, and  ♬) does, and just letting things seep in as they will. 

Don't get me wrong, I can read music.  
Guitar music, and now I'm reading  harmonica.  Your experience may differ of course, but I'm happy being exposed to all this stuff,  with the other Yale intelligentsia.  By the by, that instruction about Yale students being the new intelligentsia has been uttered in more than a few of the Yale lectures I've sat in on.  I mention it only in passing, meaning I don't find it at all "elitist" in the elitist way to remind these kids that they're special, because they are.  Their parents can afford to pay $58,600/ year to send them there, and are likely themselves to have a similar educational background, so yeah.  Elite.  

I'm learning the Yale fight song.  Maryland teams blow chunks.  So does Harvard. 
Boola Boola.






Ratbastards Voting



——You Bastards

States rights were dealt another serious blow on Tuesday when a bureaucratic agency, The Election Assistance Commission, voted against state requirements for proof of citizenship as a component of their voter registration process.


Two states which required verification by the registrant of their United States citizenship as part of that process, Arizona and Kansas, were just denied the ability to do so by the EAC. While the registrants must swear that they are legally permitted to vote, the rules oddly don’t permit a state to require proof.
The National Voter Registration Act of 1993 (NVRA), also known as “Motor Voter” created a standardized national system for voter registration. Under that Act there are three methods for registration in federal elections  must be the same nationwide. They are either in personwhich, in conjunction with obtaining a driver’s license, or by mail.

In 2002, The Election Assistance Commission (EAC) was created for the purpose of producing regulations and specifying a uniform registration form. That form, known as the “Federal Form” was supposedly created as a means to standardize the registration process across state lines. [Full]


This was a Clinton deal.  Even half-witted observers (¼ wits and lower only drooled) recognized what this was about at the time.  Making it easier for Democrats to get elected.  In 2000 Vice President Al Gore added whipped cream by ordering that 2 million aliens be sworn into citizenship; requirements be damned, prior to the 2000 election that he was nevertheless thwarted from stealing.   Since then, and off the top of my head, there have been approx 7 instances where Democrats won  U.S. Senate seats under very suspicious circimstanes (i.e.,  where the polls had them losing).  Blah-bllah-blah. That's what I see anyway.

A LOST OPPERTUNITY







What if Republicans were  principled?   What if they had done the right thing from the beginning of Obama's rule?  
  • What if they had vigorously protested the way Al Franken was fraudulently given his seat in the United States Senate? The seat that allowed Democrats absolute rule?
  • What if they had demanded hearings into the Obama birth certificate issue?  Demanded to know why patently fraudulent certificates were being proffered willy-nilly?
  • What if they had called for Eric Holder's removal every time he blatantly ignored the rule of law, beginning with his rejection of Kinston, N.C. voters who decided overwhelmingly in 2008 to do away with the party affiliation of candidates in local elections—or for leading the charge against Arizona for trying to uphold immigration laws on the books; or for letting the Black Panther's off the hook for voter intimidation; or for—?
  • What if they had demanded impeachment hearings against Obama at the juncture of every offense on his long list of impeachable offenses, and actually impeached him after taking control of the House?  Instead of using the  excuse that the Senate would not convict?  What would have happened?
THE ANSWER IS - Vilification by the Media
REPUBLICANS- THOSE BEASTS!

The media would have done a daily Sarah Palin on Republicans.   Convinced the public that Republicans were strident right wing tea party kooks who should not be allowed to run for office, and quite possibly cost them their current House majority.

But guess what?

They Would Today Have an Identity.  That Identity.  Of a party who tried to warn us.  The Republican Party would be The Elephant Who Knew

Had they done all that; acted responsibly, embraced the Teaparty
, who after all practice  the very values the GOP only give lip service to.  Had they done that,  today they would be identified as the anti-Obama inoculation the country so desperately needs.  A no brainer.  Like right now. 


WIPED OFF THE MAP!
In 1993, support for the Canada's Conservative Party collapsed, and the party's representation in the House of Commons dropped from an absolute majority of seats to only two seats. The 1993 results were the worst electoral disaster in Canadian history, and the Progressive Conservatives never fully recovered.
Nat Hentoff,  the left leaning Village Voice's long time voice of propriety and reason, is now demanding Obama's impeachment.  A Black Republican congressional candidate has (properly)  called for Obama's execution for treason.  Of course he should be, after a proper military trial.  Certainly a better case can be made for  hanging  than for believing his birth certificates are legitimate.

People hate Obamacare with a passion, and fear the man. Obama has virtually no public approval outside a hard core leftist base of America hating anarchists and communists.  But the public do not differentiate between congressional Democrats and Republicans,  and how could they? What the Hell, just yesterday the GOP House Whip called for going along with Dem's illegal immo plan.

In 1993, Canada's ruling Progressive Conservative Party collapsed, and the party's representation in the House of Commons dropped from an absolute majority of seats to only two seats. The 1993 results were the worst electoral disaster in Canadian history, and the Progressive Conservatives never fully recovered [wiki].  This is precisely what could have happened to Congressional Democrats next year; wiped off the political map. Instead, we have uber left-wing Sen. Patrick Leahy laying new footprints in the political pail of liquid media history, saying "the nation’s lawmakers must act to return control of the government to the people."   That's what the GOP ought have been saying for years.  And naming Leahy as a prime contributor.  Sheesh.

The Dead Cardinal




Le cardinal est mort!


This Cardinal flew into our glass door and kilt himself.  We feel inordinately sad over it.


Longer Version



MoSup was in the kitchen, talking to her friend in Florida and watching the Juncos go nuts over the seed she  placed under the sandbox which, perched on 6" legs,  was somewhat protected from the snowfall. blizzard.  I paid scant attention until my sonar picked up a sudden change in conversational pitch.

"I'll call you back."

Momentarily she's in the den telling  me that a Cardinal flew into the glass door,  and was laying stunned in the snow.  I said that it was prolly dead, but no.  She said  he was trying to lift his head and weakly cheeping. 

By the time I got there, the creature's leg position made it obvious that the little  little guy was dead.  I scooped him up and brought him indoors.  MoSup tried CPR (without the breahting); too late.  I never held a Cardinal before.  Still warm, he was ridiculously light.  Like only feathers; no skeleton. Soft, like a woman's breast on a warm nigh -- I digress.

"Throw him over the railing so the other birds don't have to see him."
huh?
I don't want the other birds to know he's dead.  (She is a saint)

I opened the door and gave him a mighty chuck;  but he hit the frame of an old swing with an ahdible whack and dropped all akimbo onto the deck.  He was covered completely by snow in just minutes.  Her reaction?  "You beast!"   Like I did it on purpose.

I feel good that I'm still able to feel badly that this Cardinal will no longer entertain us, but he has dozens of pals to keep the show going.   Means I still have humanity (creatureaminty?) left, for innocent creatures anyway.  If Gov. O'Malley ran into my window, I'd revive him with pee.

I have posited that there exist genetic make-up which restrict carriers from understanding economics, national defense, or Adam Smith's trickle-down theory, and permutations.   Not everyone with that "D" chromosome become Democrats; but ALL elected Democrats are "D chromed." 

That lot, then, will always become liars as well.  Why?  To explain away incredibly stupid statements that come back to haunt political careers.  Having no credible leg to stand on, they must resort to making up sh*t and ridiculing accusers.

Fred on Athen, AL






A Childhood in Athens
No Sign of Socrates, Though

This article by Fred Reed pretty much describes a place that no longer exists, but did, and should.  It is the America most of us grew up in (though many of us grew up in cities, and had a different range of regulation and lack of it).  This article pretty much illustrates what the Tea Party would like to bring about:  a nation of fewer regulations, and only those really necessary.  And of course with so few regulations, a lot of spending becomes irrelevant.  Wish I could go there today. - Skoonj





It is common for aging men, worn by the long years of drink and skirt-chasing and strenuous dissolution in the fleshpots of Asia, or any available fleshpots, to remember their youth in roseate hues that never were. But, dammit, we really did go barefoot. And had BB guns. And the dog could go anywhere it damned well pleased, and come back when it chose.

Athens, Alabama in 1957 was a small Southern town like countless others in Dixie with a statue of a Confederate soldier on the town square and little evidence of government of any kind, which was well since it didn’t need any. While the South had not fared well in its ardent resistance to Federal regulation a century earlier, still there was little meddling by Washington in my years there.

The South’s martial displeasure with Federal intrusion was remembered, though: When I moved down from Virginia, I was to other kids “the damyank on the corner” until I learned to wrap words in a comfortable padding of syllables, as God commanded.

On the square. While Southerners are the most patriotic and martial of Americans, they have the least use for Washington. In which I heartily concur.

Although my father was a mathematician at Redstone Arsenal in Huntsville, and perhaps entitled to social pretensions, he didn’t have any. Consequently I lived as a half-wild disciple of Tom Sawyer. So did most of the town’s boys. Come summer, we at first tentatively abandoned shoes. No one thought this odd, because it wasn’t.  Soon our soles toughened to leather and we walked everywhere, even on gravel, without ill effect.

And nobody cared. Oh sweet age of nobody cared.  Child Protective Services didn’t show up, officious passive-aggressive snots, to carry my parents away. Today they would, droning censoriously of hygiene and worms and crippling cuts from broken glass and parental irresponsibility.


Many of my friends lost feet to these perils. To this day you can see them rolling about in wheel chairs in their dozens.

Foot-nekkid and fancy free, we went to the Limestone Drug Store on the town square, piled our ball gloves and BB guns inside the door, and read comic books for hours. The owner, a frizzzly redheaded man in his seventies whom we knew only as Cochie, liked little boys. Today this would be thought evidence of pedophilia and he would be required to undergo therapy and wear an ankle bracelet. Actually, Coochie just liked kids. And since it was his store, nobody at corporate got his panties in a knot because the comic books were read into virtual dust without ever being bought. The Federal government had not yet regulated small-town soda fountains to protect us.

Still there, fifty-seven years later. Much changed inside but the current owners, whoever they are, had the decency to preserve the orignial soda fountain.
The devastating plagues that swept the South in those years, mysteriously unrecorded, were doubtless the result of bare feet in Limestone Drug.

BB guns, I said. We all had them. Most were the Red Ryder model, costing I think $4.95 in as-yet uninflated currency. Mine was the Daisy Eagle [Continued]



With maybe one exception (nobody had a BB gun) Fred's remembrance of his childhood in Athens, Alabama is identical to mine in Chicago, Illinois (albeit on the very border of Des Plaines).  However, if you substitute a .22 rifle and 12ga shotgun for the BB gun, things are identical with my summers with grandparents in Indiana.   I'm betting I'm not alone.

A Mobster, a Lobster, and a Tosser




Leahy Stink








Can you smell the burning irony?
Deputy U.S. Marshal Raylan Givens
Sen. Patrick Leahy (record) says the American people are at risk of being controlled by their government due to the expansive surveillance powers of the National Security Agency.

Speaking on “Fox News Sunday,” the Vermont Democrat and chairman of the Senate Judiciary Committee told host Chris Wallace that the nation’s lawmakers must act to return control of the government to the people.

“I think that we are going to maintain our ability to protect the United States,” Leahy began. “That’s extremely important.”

“The concern everybody has is allowing our government to have such a reach into your private life, my private life, and everybody else’s, that we are, we have the government controlling us instead of us controlling the government.”

“And that’s what both Republicans and Democrats are joined together on the Hill to try to change,” Leahy concluded.

Earlier in the program, Leahy suggested that vie [OMFG]...


What Raylan said ... plus— that Leahy would even acknowledge that the nation's increasingly becoming a full blown police state* tells us that Democrats are smelling smoke from those myriad brushfires across the country.  I wonder if they ever think of Mussolini hanging upside down?  Srsly.

ME: It's getting harder and harder to get stuff to work with IE along with FF and Chrome.  I'm guessin that Google (who owns Blogger) is purposely fking with IE so as to drive people to Chrome.  The irony of course is that's what Microsoft did with Netscape to kill them off.  I'll try to solve it as soon as I get in the proper mood. Thanks.


ME: Is it fixed?






Suplize Party




Supplize!



Hectic weekend.  Our kids threw a suplize retirement party for their mom, and some of it even surprised me.  They somehow found a very good friend whom we'd lost touch with, and he showed up.  One of our sons flew in from Holland (and had to leave for Russia the next day!)—so no way in the world we figgered he shows up, but he did.  She was totally and 100% surprised and the party lasted two days.  Woot Woo.  Her payback for being the best mom (and wife) in the world.

Bill Murray Stories




Bill Murray Stories
"Nobody's going to believe you"




The night of the show arrived and we stopped to grab a bite to eat at a deli before making it over to the concert. As we sat eating pastrami on ryes and chit chatting, a guy came walking into the restaurant, went behind the counter, and made himself a soft drink. An employee confronted the man, which caused us to look up and take notice that it was Bill Fucking Murray.

Upon realizing that he was there, my ex grabbed my phone and started to snap a picture. As quickly as she put the phone up, he approached and grabbed the phone, snapping it closed. He then put the phone down on the table, grabbed a bottle of mustard, opened it, and squeezed what was left onto my ex’s sandwich. We practically burst into tears; we were dying with laughter. He began to walk away, quietly saying, “No one will ever believe you“, as he threw a $20 bill on the table.  [Bill Murray Stories]

Compare him with, say, Chevy Chase.  I don't know what Murray's politics are, which of course translates into he's not the typical Hollywood Liberal assface.   My favorite Murray movieGroundhog Day.
