This Just In...

Gee, good to know that our predecessors knew more about livin' it up than just hand tools and the stupid wheel.

Reality:
Guess they knew how to get their "caveman" on.
Who said that man has no instinct?
;-P

IMHO

Even this movie, being the "cutest" of the series is roughly a gazillion times better than "Little Miss Sunshine" was hyped to be.





Reality:
Directed by Ang Lee. You know, the man that brought you Crouching Tiger, The Hulk and of course, Brokeback Mountain.

Guess the Quote

Ok, I think this is very easy, but I tried to find one as obscure as I could:

[ "Life is pain, Highness.
Anyone who says differently is selling something." ]

Reality:
Easily one of my favorite movies.

Whooooops!

We've been "outed!"

Gratuitous money line:

[ "Widespread instances of people and organisations buying worthless credits that do not yield any reductions in carbon emissions." ]

Reality:
Time to move on to the next alarmist scam, algore.

Roht, roh, Shaggy!

Now what?

Money line:

] "Switching from gasoline to ethanol _ touted as a green alternative at the pump – may create dirtier air, causing slightly more smog-related deaths, a new study says." [

Or this article.
Money line:

] "But accepting that does not mean accepting that any kind of alternative energy is by default a good thing." [

Reality:
Yeah...I'm gonna go ahead and guess that this won't get too much widespread airplay from the M.S.M. which is too busy feeling good about doing everything in their power to bring down big oil. This is what I was talking about earlier when I said that algore is bad because he takes us away from truly focusing on the problem and analyzing it rather than jump on the first - or anything - alternative form of energy that is different than Big Oil.

Huh??!?

This is just a bit of...well, not doublespeak - per se - but certainly..well, odd.

On the one hand, you get this:

|| "A rise of just 16 feet would affect 669 million people and 2 million square
miles of land would be lost." ||

Later...

|| "Sea levels are currently rising about 0.04 to 0.08 inches each year, making it unlikely such a scenario would suddenly occur across the globe, Usery said."||

So I'm a tad bit confused.
According to some, rising ocean levels will devestated those on coasts within 100 years. This article clearly contradicts that stating that natural disasters would be the cause - seeing as oceans are rising at a level of "0.04 to 0.08 inches each year"...which means without natural disasters, it would take approximately 200 years.

Reality:
Get your stories straight, Global Warming alarmists.
It shouldn't be too difficult - what with the concencus and all.

Victor/Victoria

Victor:

Victoria:

Reality:

Click on the Shadow to hear father of the year address his 12 year old daughter.

Maybe I should have gone with the Dr. Jeckyll/Mr. Hyde, huh?

And Now...

...another sign of the impending apocalypse.
wow.

||"If the girl chooses to become pregnant using her mother’s eggs, she will be giving birth to her biological half-sibling.||"

Holy crap.
WOW!

Reality:
What.
The.
F**K!??!
Wasn't this a joke about rednecks at one time?

Shout Out.

This shout out goes to gopFolk.
He has futally tried to stump me (I really don't think he thinks we are in competition, but...that's never really stopped me..) on countries around the world.
Well, I think between my trivia psychosis and the world map hanging less than a foot away from me with pushpins all over it to signify all the places I want to visit...I don't see it happening.
However.
Recently, in haste to respond, I was in error in thinking he meant Domenican Republic, when clearly it was Papua New Ginea. (ppffftt..)
So I decided to start my own game. The first will be fairly easy...seeing as I knew of this quote, for years and I only saw the movie for the first time late last year.

| "Leave the gun. Take the cannolis."

Hint: My friends were incredulous and flabbergasted that it took me as long as it did to finally see the movie.

Reality:
I'd give it a 2 out of 10.
Oh, and for the record: my previous quote "fu, pay me" was from Goodfellas.
Kudos to RDW for getting it almost immediately.

You say tohmahtoe, I say BS

The ending line of this is something that the JFK conspiracy buffs could also take note of.



Reality:
Good thing they are on pay cable so they can speak their minds, eh?

Yeah, you know what?

I completely agree with Peter.

Reality:
I'm really sick of BS, promises not kept...on and on.
Sick.

You Couldn't Make This Up

So I was watching BBCAmerica this morning (early) just see what the rest of the world was saying about the sad events on the VT campus.
Not quite sure which news program was on, but the commentator was talking about the massacre with a “gun/psychology expert.” (what??) They were talking about the guns used during the incident, and then the commentator asked why this happens more prevalently in the US.
I thought “here comes the Bush-bashing.”
But to my surprise, the “analyst” took a different route.
He claimed that we (as Americans) still think that we live in the wild west. That we (again, as Americans) are just like that. Period.
The commentator pressed on asking maybe we (again, as Americans) are just under way too much stress as a nation. The “analyst” refuted that and stuck to his guns, as it were. Further, he claimed, that in speaking specifically with prosecutors in Ft. Worth, they agreed with him that having guns in the home for protection only leads to the guns being more likely to kill the homeowner.
Unbelievable.
They say “analyst”, I say biased A-hole.
WTF??!

Reality:
Some stuffed shirt who doesn’t know a damn thing about what happened at VT is spouting on about gun control in MY country from HIS country. Nothing was mentioned (‘cause he didn’t know) about the nationality or the citizenship status of the gunman.
Nothing else was even blamed.
Not jealousy.
Not video games.
Not breaking existing laws.
Nothing.
Sorry, even with this tragic event, is there any wonder why I’m glad and proud to be an American citizen?

In a word?

NO.

Wow, the MSM reeeeeally wants to coronate Hillary.
They (the MSM) has been busy in the last several weeks trying to throw as much crap at this guy to see if any of it sticks. From the Kerik "fiasco" to this, it goes on and on and on...
Can you say scared?
I knew you could.

Reality:
What makes the highlight reel: He dressed in drag.
What doesn't make the reel: In a roast next to a legend who made the role famous.
What makes the highlight reel: He wore high heels and fishnets
What doesn't make the reel: With the Rockettes.
Ridiculous.

Think you got game?

Not much.

Reality:
Ugh....just another thing Ma & Pa were right about.
"Eat your carrots. Eat an orange...."
Dammit!
Yes, Mom...

Meanwhile, back in the real world...

Things are.....nevermind.
Damn, you, Global Warming!
Damn you!

***UPDATE***
MIT? What do they know?
Nothing but a bunch of morons who could only get into a tech school.

H/T The Game

Reality:
Just curious as to how many of these stories it will take...

Happy Easter

Reality:

He has risen.

Il buono, il brutto, il cattivo.

I've been told:
"Winners never cheat and cheaters never win"
Or something like that.
Proof below...




Reality:
A friend of mine (he doesn't like to admit it out loud) and I saw this a couple of years back and laughed ourselves unconscious .
While the actual act and her reaction slays me, the look on the newscasters "back at the studio" is, well....priceless.
Reason #15,379,308 I'm pretty sure I'm headed to hell.

OH MY GOD!!!

Are you serious??
How and when can I vote for this guy?!!??




Reality:
While this 10 minute diatribe may be a bit long for the drive-by media, I urge all of you to hear what he has to say.
H/T Da Blogfather

This looks familiar..

"We came in friendship, hope, and determined that the road to Damascus is a road to peace"

KINDA LIKE....

"My good friends, for the second time in our history, a British Prime Minister has returned from Germany bringing peace with honour. I believe it is peace for our time."

Reality:

Maybe it didn't work for ol' Neville because he was really just holding the 10th UN resolution against Hitler and Germany.

Is it me??

Would somebody please help me out here?
See, I’m from Eye-taly and I guess I just don’t get your guy’s (and mine) system all too well – I’ve only been here a few years and all (only 30yrs). Please forgive me.
These here “referenda” that seem to be springing up all over the state….these are taxes over and above the regular school-related property taxes, right? (or not, this is where I need the help).

If it is, what the hell??!!?
Seems pretty simple to me.
Your school boards are doing nothing short of their best imitation of Pontius Pilate (figured it was an appropriate allegory considering the season, and all…).
You know – “don’t look at us, YOU all didn’t vote for the money we needed. WE asked for it, after all.”
What happened to “You elected us to look over the budget, and we effed it up. So give us more, ‘cause this job is pretty easy, we don’t even need to do anything….so we’d like to keep this job”

Reality:
Seriously, folks, when are we going to stand up and say “What the f***?!!?” – and not in the Tom Cruise, Risky Business way, either!
Mean it!
YOU are a source of an endless revenue stream for all the people we elect as our representatives. Think yourself as the trough all our "legislators" are feeding off of.

I mean....at least we can call a spade a spade where I come from. ;-)

Thug Life.

Anyone care to defend this horse's ass?

Reality:
If any of the people complain about crime and crappiness in his district EVER again, I say we send out with the MMSD dumping.
Unbelievable.

One Word Today:

Reality:

'Nuff said.

What? WHAT?!

WHAT?????!!!!!?

Now we are working on changing history so as not to offend anyone.....?
Congratulations, PC crowd!
You are well on your way to raise an entire generation of spineless, clueless morons.
Wow.

Reality:
Good God.
What the hell is the matter with these people???
After looking back on my own schooling, I wish someone would never have told me about communists,unions and socialists growing up. Scared the crap out of me.

I also could have done without knowing how Il Duce killed his own people, too. Made school very difficult for me. But then again, as I learned in my history classes...time since the birth of Christ has only been measured by the peace between wars.

Come to think of it, it was like that before his birth, too.
