Ahh the meme goodness that has passed my wall since the day after christmas as it regards new years. The Game of Thrones meme "Brace Yourselves, for all the people who say they are going to change and never do"
The more things change the more they stay the same. Meh onward to final thoughts on a few various subject for THIS year..
Veganism, and this one is precipitated by a post on a friends facebook wall that came up on mine. Fine you want to be Vegan? That's YOUR perogative...don't tell me however that it's our natural state. It's not. We are the Apex Predator on this planet. The very top of the food chain. We are tool using, THINKING hunting, gathering obligate OMNIVORES. Which means EVERYTHING that lives must and in most cases IS...food for us. There are somethings that just aren't eaten in various cultures due to social taboos but whatever makes you sick to think of eating...someone else somewhere else...considers food. Dogs, Sharks, etc etc. "but but, killing animals for food is torture and murder!" Ahh so because plants don't have cute faces and eyes and can't look at you longingly, therefore they don't make good false guilt inducing commercials, that eating plants makes you better? Sorry that dog won't hunt. Most everything that lives FEEDS on something else. Including plants. Hell even plants KILL to survive DEAL WITH IT.
Gun Control: Sorry gun control folks. Your irrational fear of an inanimate object is NOT my problem. Well not until you are STUPID enough to make it my problem by trying to control and restrict my access to a constitutionally protected human right. That's right I said human right, because everyone has the right of self defense and the ability to put food on the table. "But think of the children!" I am, mine if I ever have any and those of my friends and family. A gun is tool. Nothing more and nothing less. It doesn't have a will of it's own and it's not, no matter how much you chicken yellow twits project upon them...inherently "EVIL" See that's the thing a lot of "gun control" and the flat out hysteria that goes along with it is based on unreasoning EMOTIONAL projection instead of logic. Gun Control advocates say gun owners need to "compromise" See that's one place where they are way off base. When they say "compromise" they mean "give in to our demands or else" Compromise means 2 sides having a reasonable, rational discussion and coming to a mutually beneficial and mutually agreed upon decision. BTW gun owners have been "compromising" since the NF Act of 1934. So go piss up a rope. Frankly we need to rescind every gun control law that has been passed since then.
Global Warming., no sorry it's Climate Change, now. Antartic Ice is melting at an unheard of rate? Look at the arctic you morons...the ice there is GROWING at the exact same rate. Nature is keeping itself in balance. Same as it's always done. It's the warmest year on record! Uhmm no if you look at science graphs of ice cuttings and such we STILL haven't approached the warmest temps of back in the dinosaur days before humans So float that boat by someone else. Matter of fact this has been the longest running cold streak in my memory here in Texas. Be that as it may...the climate is always changing, balance and self adjusting. Humans have fuck all to do with it and no control whatsoever. To propose otherwise is...hubris.
Politics in the US. Hmm my thoughts on politics in the US can be summed up thusly.
Take off and nuke DC from orbit...repeatedly. It's the only way to be sure.
Healthcare: Healthcare is a service, not a right. The US despite some of the problems with the system...is still the best healthcare system in the world. Although the US government after winning their take over bid for an industry that is 1/3 the US economy, is doing it's level best to destroy it.
just a few random final stray thoughts for the year closing out at midnight tonight.
Remember TANSTAAFL and..
I now return you to your regularly scheduled inanity and insanity.

Gun Control works? It's for the children!
MY ASS!
This one is going to be quick, dirty, profane and sans links boys and girls. Don't believe what I'm telling you...then look it up for your goddamned selves. Because we've HAD this fucking conversation before. Repeatedly and it's making me irritable. Oh and hat tip to my buddy miguel for the spanish language article on this that set my temper raging again. http://gunfreezone.net/wordpress/
Okay fucking seriously? I'm tired of the gun control crowd. I'd like to round them all up, strip them naked, strap chutes on them and then drop them into some of the more...."enlightened" areas of the world. Africa? pick a country on that continent. Middle of the Arabian Desert? Any known surviving Al Qeuda camps? China? Nah if china got to drop them fully clothed and laden with all sorts of goodies, falsified documents, electronic spy gear[bugs and mini cams] etc. Only way to do china frankly. Such a plethora of choices....mmmm.
Everyone talks about gun control being a good thing. Hmmm don't think so.
Lets talk about Venezuela...AGAIN. Gun Control Paradise. Highly restrictive gun laws. only allowed one gun per person or household...forget which at the moment. That gun is registered with the government. Oh and it can be taken/confiscated with no rhyme or reason, with no warning what so ever. At any time.
Under beloved leader Hugo Chavez [long may his rotting fucking corpse feed the beetles and worms] they closed the very last gun store in Venezuela in late 2011.
Population...ie demographic. Venezuela is a COUNTRY with a population density on par with a US STATE. One state in particular..MINE. Their population depending on which website you track with is between 27-28 million right now. Their murder rate is between 18-21000 a year EVERY year for years and years...more than a decade. This year according to a spanish language article I ran across, and an NGO that tracks violence in Venezuela...they will have a BANNER RECORD year for murders come the close of 2013. According to that NGO if the murder rate stays stable they will finish out THIS year with 24,763 murders. That is fully just a gnats ass shy of a full ONE PERCENT of their population.That is anywhere between 3-6 THOUSAND more murders than the last decade or better's stats. Now by comparison. The Great State of Texas in which I live, whom according to the gun grabbing, hanky stomping pussies that want your guns; our states gun laws are pretty lax. What is our murder rate? Meh we average between 1050-1150 give or take a few dozen either way. That means boys and girls that our "gun law lax" STATE has 20 times LESS murders than the gun control paradise of Venezuela, this year. Hell! Venezuela's murder rate this year is going to be around half and a again, or 10000 or more than the murder stats for the ENTIRE United States! This in a country with 13 times LESS the population of the US! Wrap your empty skulls around THAT statistic and CHOKE on it you gun grabbing fucktards. By comparison the murder rate for the US, in terms of population murdered hasn't changed much in the last 60yrs or better. Our percentage of dead is almost invariably between .004-.009%. For those of you who don't remember your basic math, slept through the class or you young folk that probably didn't get this basic part of math learning in the last decade or so...what that is is 4-9 THOUSANDTHS of ONE PERCENT. That's practically infitesimal! Oh and before anyone brings up England...Guess what the numbers for England are skewed. Because in England unless it's investigated as, tried as and convicted as a murder...it doesn't go in the books as a murder. Put it another similar way for you. Unless you get an actual CONVICTION then it doesn't go in the official government stats as a murder. Hell I read an official government document from their Dept of Justice once that states in the preface that the numbers are off on everything because, especially for most petty crimes...most victims don't even bother to report crimes! Why? because the people tend to feel, rightly, that their justice system is as useless tits on a boar hog.
And as I've also pointed out before.
Brazil? Whom the Olympics Committee was STUPID enough to give the forthcoming summer olympics to? Their average murder rate, before that was between 45-50000 a year. And THAT in a country with half the population of the US. That's taken a drop for two reasons. Brazil and their law enforcement declared open season on gangs and criminals and started killing them in job lots. I'd also put good money on the idea that the Brazilian gov't made some back room deals with some of the bigger crime syndicates.
Africa? Don't even get me fucking started. However for your edification outside of tribal driven genocide and warfare...Africa averages 150000 per year. Add in the numbers from genocide and warfare and the numbers will really make you puke. It's why I've always maintained that the continent is nothing but a black hole for blood, money, and tears.
That is all.

Why do people REFUSE to understand?
I just. Don't. Get. It. Every day government on all levels is encroaching further and further into our lives. Story in Houston today..
people think this is a good thing?
I just don't get it. Various writers have been writing tales of warning about too much government encroachment, or the pitfalls of falling under a totalitarian/communist/socialist government. some of these stories were even required reading in school. 1984 by George Orwell
http://www.amazon.com/1984-Signet-Classics-George-Orwell/dp/0451524934/ref=sr_1_1?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1388090871&sr=1-1&keywords=1984
Animal Farm by George Orwell.

These and others. Even today we have warnings in writing of the future under the "benevolent" rule of these dystopian utopias. Now I don't like most of these stories. Many of them are just too much angsty teenage crap in them with the dystopic fucked up world as nothing but a backdrop instead of the real story..but..
Hunger Games in which your kids are taken and put into a 'last man standing, to the death' gladiatorial games that is broadcast all over the place for the amusement of those in power and the brain washed and CONTROLLED masses.

Divergent in which you have to at a certain time decide what BOX you want to fit in, or will fit in via some test. If you don't fit any of those boxes? You're hosed.

There are other stories those are just two you'll recognize though due to them being made into movies. Hell! One of my favorite movies is about a dystopian liberal/progressive/democrat utopia. Demolition Man. Ring a bell? A world in which every facet of your life is controlled by a central authority. Everyone is brainwashed. Well most everyone except those who live, quite literally, underground.. Salt, caffeine, cigarettes, fat? Hell..MEAT?! Unhealthy therefore illegal. Hell there's only ONE restaurant and that's Taco Bell. Although not the Taco Hell many of us know and love, or know and hate as the case may be. Sex? Forget it, sex leads to disease and chaos; and as noted in the movie...for a cigarette, a beer or a desire to raid the fridge. Can't have that. So you have to go to a licensed doctor who'll determine whether you're compatible, extract your semen[or in the case of the ladies the eggs] genetically purify them, then combine them in a lab.. I honestly don't remember at the moment whether the ladies were artificially inseminated at that point or whether the zygote was put in a test tube to be popped out of an incubator 9 months later. Either way...beam me up scotty.
Look, when the hell are the sheep among you going to wake up and realize that instead of putting sheep dogs into the various government positions; you've by and large put the WOLVES in power over you? You keep reelecting the same assholes. Over and over again. Note there are some sheepdogs in the power structure but the wolves are winning. Taking more control over your lives with nary a "baa aaa aaaaa" of discontent out of most of you. Me? I'm not exactly a sheep dog, not sheep either. I'm barking and growling in the hopes of getting your attention and making you think, come out of your complacency. Frankly with all the ignorant, unschooled, flat out ILLITERATE comments I witness on posts on face book...I sometimes wonder why I bother. Because those of you who support this shit are willful participants in your own enslavement and slaughter. Why? Why? WHY Goddammit?!!!
Do you people crave the slave chains?! Is it fear? Okay...fear, I can understand that. Fear can be crippling. It can also be a powerful motivator in making yourself smarter, faster and more dangerous than those that would make slaves out of you, or sheep fit only for slaughter. Is it an unwillingness to take responsibility for your own lives and decisions? Hmmm that one right there I think is many of you among the sheep.
Bah! I'm done ranting for the moment about this. I've said most of this shit repeatedly over the years.

Duck Dynasty brouhaha
You know..I keep getting into arguments with addlepated assholes over this so figured I'd put it down here. Besides I'm long overdue for a new post.
[*shrug* sorry lads and lasses]
Note...there WILL be foul languange. So if your an easily offended idiot...don't bother reading any further. OTOH feel free...maybe the outrage you feel will spike your blood pressure and cause your head to explode and splatter skull fragments everywhere.
Okay seriously? All you morons getting driven into a foaming at the mouth frenzy by this manufactured faux outrage...need to go back to school and learn reading comprehension. Right now I'd give most of you a big fucking F for failure. Hell! I doubt most of you bothered to read the damn article that has your titties in a twist.
The question Phil was ASKED, mind you ASKED; meaning he didn't just all the sudden go off on a rambling rampage; the question ol Phil was asked was "What in your mind is sinful?" Phil answered honestly
“Start with homosexual behavior and just morph out from there. Bestiality, sleeping around with this woman and that woman and that woman and those men,” he says. Then he paraphrases Corinthians: “Don’t be deceived. Neither the adulterers, the idolaters, the male prostitutes, the homosexual offenders, the greedy, the drunkards, the slanderers, the swindlers—they won’t inherit the kingdom of God. Don’t deceive yourself. It’s not right.”

Heh...
it seems boys and girls that the Curly Wolf is losing an online friend. One of my favorite bloggers and Texas boy Robbie has said his goodbyes to blogging. He made his last post on Tuesday. The site goes dark two days after christmas because it'll just cost him too much to keep the site live and archived because it's such a massive amount of data. Oh well.
I'm gonna miss him but he's leaving to keep a promise. He promised his wife 10yrs ago when he started it, he'd quit after 10 years. He's got a new born son now and is keeping his promise to his wife.
He's quitting so he can be the best husband and father he can be. I wish him nothing but the best. God keep his hand over you and yours my friend. Gonna miss ya.
I now leave you to your regularly scheduled inanity and insanity.

Random thought of the day.
A great many like myself have a pretty good notion of what we believe is coming. Some believe it won't be as bad as we think. That sure there's going to be some changes but we'll survive them.
To paraphrase Ambassador G'kar from Babylon 5.."you do not witness history, you can only hope to survive it".
Now with that thought in mind...what makes anyone think that the changes that I'm fairly sure are coming....are good ones?

The "Government Shutdown" and political rhetoric
*Brief programming note first...sorry for the delay in more posts germs and virii. A storm fried the power supply on my pc and it took me several days to get it back up.*
Seriously? I'm getting sick and tired of it. So are many of the people I know. When you have the PPM mouth pieces, pundits, sitting democratic senators and others; calling people who disagree with them and actually want the government to run the way our founding fathers intended.."Tea Party Terrorists". Calling people like Ted Cruz, who got ELECTED on getting the brakes put on Obamacare for one thing, and having a government that actually listens to it's constituents for another "Tea baggers"...political discourse and reason are all down the crapper boys and girls. here's further proof.
A bunch of fucktard ass maggots who have no CONCEPT of the way the government is supposed to work as set down in the constitution [here's a hint...look up the constitution. read article 1 section 7.] are calling for arrest for sedition of sitting republican congress critters because these same people don't agree with the repubs in the house, actually doing their JOBS for once and trying to put the brakes on runaway spending; is asinine.
For those too lazy to go look up Article 1 Section 7 of the US Constitution, it states:
"All Bills for raising Revenue shall originate in the House of Representatives; but the Senate may propose or concur with Amendments as on other Bills"
What that means boys and girls is that the HOUSE ,as you have been told repeatedly, holds the purse strings. To them falls the job of deciding "Hey we can't afford to fund this here, unless we make cuts over there, or over there.". Or..."we flat out can't fucking afford this shit, stop spending money like a drunken sailor on shore leave in a whorehouse!" *note..I apologize to all the naval and other personnel out there who this insults. because at least YOU folks can grasp the concept of 'when you're out of money...stop trying to spend what you don't have or borrow it from other people!'
Sadly this is reminiscent of one of my favorite tv shows. Came out almost 21years ago now. It's called Babylon 5. Sadly in that one, near the end of the second and beginning of the 3rd season...it was considered sedition to disagree with the, and feel free to quote me on this "Head MotherFucker Who's Having Delusions of Grandeur".
Anytime someone disagrees with the Dems or President Obummer about..
health care..its "you hate grandma, you want to shove her off a cliff!"
wanting to stop all this runaway spending and wanting the house to cut the purse strings...it's "you teabagging, tea party terrorist! you can't dictate to the government!" yeah actually...we can.
disagree with them about basically anything, or try and call them to the carpet it's "you old white racist asshole honkies!" Uhmm Really? you still think racism is real? Here...try reading this and open your mind to reality.
In Babylon 5 this story line didn't end well. See what happened was the rational people with functioning brains who actually gave a damn about the Constitution, and upholding it...ended up seceding. And of course the Government couldn't allow this so they started killing people who were protesting and seceding..including and especially civilians. Like now in reality, in the show the gov't basically owned the msm, lock, stock and both smoking barrels. In the show we had the Psy Corp aka quite literally the "thought police". Now we have Political Correctness and a willingness to destroy anyone who doesn't pander or kow tow to it. Sigh...by the time it was all over the good guys succeeded...but a shit pot full of people on BOTH sides had to die first. Now while the current political dissension may very well end up in blood shed, and people on both sides will likely end up dying in job lots...are we going to get the same 'happy' ending? Stay tuned boys and girls because as I said in another post...the jury is still out on that one.
Oh I highly recommend the show. It's one of the few shows out there with an actual beginning, middle and end. It was slated to run a 5yr story arc and ended at the end of 5 seasons. That wasn't the end of the story however. the guy who created the show had this whole HUGE story line on the evolution and future of the human race. of which Babylon 5 is only the beginning. He started to continue it in another show called Crusade but alas...the studio execs being total dicks...they pulled the plug with only half a season worth of episodes in the can. Oh well.
Remember, TANSTAAFL and...
I now return your to your regularly scheduled inanity and insanity.
Seriously? I'm getting sick and tired of it. So are many of the people I know. When you have the PPM mouth pieces, pundits, sitting democratic senators and others; calling people who disagree with them and actually want the government to run the way our founding fathers intended.."Tea Party Terrorists". Calling people like Ted Cruz, who got ELECTED on getting the brakes put on Obamacare for one thing, and having a government that actually listens to it's constituents for another "Tea baggers"...political discourse and reason are all down the crapper boys and girls. here's further proof.
A bunch of fucktard ass maggots who have no CONCEPT of the way the government is supposed to work as set down in the constitution [here's a hint...look up the constitution. read article 1 section 7.] are calling for arrest for sedition of sitting republican congress critters because these same people don't agree with the repubs in the house, actually doing their JOBS for once and trying to put the brakes on runaway spending; is asinine.
For those too lazy to go look up Article 1 Section 7 of the US Constitution, it states:
"All Bills for raising Revenue shall originate in the House of Representatives; but the Senate may propose or concur with Amendments as on other Bills"
What that means boys and girls is that the HOUSE ,as you have been told repeatedly, holds the purse strings. To them falls the job of deciding "Hey we can't afford to fund this here, unless we make cuts over there, or over there.". Or..."we flat out can't fucking afford this shit, stop spending money like a drunken sailor on shore leave in a whorehouse!" *note..I apologize to all the naval and other personnel out there who this insults. because at least YOU folks can grasp the concept of 'when you're out of money...stop trying to spend what you don't have or borrow it from other people!'
Sadly this is reminiscent of one of my favorite tv shows. Came out almost 21years ago now. It's called Babylon 5. Sadly in that one, near the end of the second and beginning of the 3rd season...it was considered sedition to disagree with the, and feel free to quote me on this "Head MotherFucker Who's Having Delusions of Grandeur".
Anytime someone disagrees with the Dems or President Obummer about..
health care..its "you hate grandma, you want to shove her off a cliff!"
wanting to stop all this runaway spending and wanting the house to cut the purse strings...it's "you teabagging, tea party terrorist! you can't dictate to the government!" yeah actually...we can.
disagree with them about basically anything, or try and call them to the carpet it's "you old white racist asshole honkies!" Uhmm Really? you still think racism is real? Here...try reading this and open your mind to reality.

Government shutdown, what it means and the future.
Some of you may not have seen some of the links I'm fixing to post of our petty Herr Fuhrer wanna be that currently resides in the Peoples House and his diktats in action. Most of you though. Probably have. That being said...perpend.
Homeowners forced out of their homes and off their land
Why because while they own the homes, the Federal Government holds the land.
Here's some folks protesting the closing of parks.
Park Protest
Most everyone I expect heard the following one as it's been so widely covered..
WW2 memorial
Wait there's more to this one as of yesterday..
Barricades at WW2 memorial now wired.
What? never heard of wire cutters? Idiots. What?
"OMG they might move to using CHAINS next? if we cut the wires wolf!" *snort* Depending on the thickness of the links then in that case I'd see their chains and raise them. Either bolt cutters or a goddamn blowtorch. Oh by the way...this park was COMPLETELY privately funded by generous donations to the foundation who built it. They raised 200 MILLION dollars for the project. They had a huge lump sum left afterwards and put those funds, into a federal trust, in trust to the government, so that maintenance of the park grounds would be paid for and taken care of. they would have been better off asking for continued donations and paying a private company to do the maintenance. Hell if they'd asked...they'd probably have unpaid VOLUNTEERS that would come out and clean the park.
read it and weep if you don't believe me

Putting up cones blocking access to Mt Rushmore and the park.
Hmmm one friend suggested just running the cones over in a vehicle. I agreed but on second though...if you want to protest this one with a number of people...put some people in the backs of pick ups in front your convoy to the park. simply pick up the cones and stack them neatly in the back of the truck as you go. then dump them neatly at the park gate when you get there, and go in.
more protesting at the Badlands Park
Someone else protesting the high handedness and payin the penalty.
So the rangers are blocking access to his business? My suggestion...call and make a reservation for a party and ask if there are shrubs near the entrance way and if the property is fronted by a drainage ditch. If no...to the latter anyway. come to the inn and go through the shrubs. bring enough money to be able to pay for replacement. Hell if you own a landscaping company bring the replacements in pots. My other suggestion. Sue the park rangers in court for infringement of your constitutional rights. Because they are sure as shit violating them in this case.
Then there was this bit of gross stupidity....
Really? *facepalm* blows the mind don't it? Or little Herr Fuhrer wanna be has really lost his mind this time. Of course that's always assuming he HAD a mind in the first place.
What it means is that the government in the form of the democrats have gone completely off the rails. See they are throwing a temper tantrum and shit fit because the House of Representatives is surprisingly and amazingly enough...doing the JOB it was created for. Carrying out the purpose it was created for. As a check and balance, a curb on the growth of government. A curb on the spending. The ultimate arbiters of the public's checkbook. They were supposed to be proposing budgets and forcing the government to stay within those budgets by saying "Nope we don't really need this all that badly and we can't afford it. try again next year' or ' we can give you this but you have to work with us to cut this, and this back'. I'm stunned beyond belief that after all these years they are finally doing that goddamn job.
Don't believe that was one of the House's reason for being? I give Federalist paper 58...written by one of the framers of our Constitution...James Madison.
http://www.foundingfathers.info/federalistpapers/fed58.html
Understand me on something. ' WE The People' ARE the government. WE own the land, WE own the roads. The Government, be it the federal fuck ups, state or local are our employees, not our masters. WE hired them to sanely and intelligently manage our assets while we went about our daily lives. Again because this is important to understand the government is our EMPLOYEE; NOT our Master. Everything they are up to right now in this temper tantrum being thrown by the Dems, the Senate and the Herr Fuhrer wanna be...are UN-Constitutional, UN-American and our forefathers would spit in the faces of their political office inheritors.
So in the case of people on Lake Mead being forced out for example? They SHOULD HAVE, en masse said "Boy the people are the government, therefore the people own this land, therefore I own this land...now get off my property" See it would have forced the government to do something that really would not have set well with most...it would have forced them to send in police or federal agents to remove those people by FORCE. Demonstrating out in the open yet again...what dictatorial asswipes our employees are turning into.
See those of us like me...understand this. We want to be free to live our lives without the diktats of a vindictive petty tyrannical overlord/government. It's why our founders created the government the way they did. To try to slow the creeping infestation of the power hungry. I don't think frankly that our founding fathers ever believed that even the government system they set up could slow it down forever or stop it out right. I think they knew the latter was a pipe dream. However if the creep started they expected WE the People to step on it's neck and say "Uh uh. I don't think so junior." We the people and the generations before mine...failed. We failed our duty to keep our government in check and we failed abominably. We the following generations, the inheritors of the legacy of our forefathers have squandered the fuck out of it. Those who sit in their political offices in undeserved splendor. Spitefully and gleefully thinking THEY are the lords and masters of us all. They are WRONG.
There is a symbolic clock face, called The Doomsday Clock. It's been in existence since the creation of nuclear weapons. As a means by which, the committee that created it and runs it; the Science and Security Board of the Bulletin of Atomic Scientists, can track what they say is how close we are to a Global Disaster or rather...a Global Thermonuclear War. It's original intent has now been corrupted to include "Climate Change" blah blah blah. I won't get into that now.
Suffice to say I believe that clock should also include the dissolution of governments. For us I believe we are at 5mins to midnight or even closer than that to the brink. There is still time step up to the plate to do our best to step back from the brink. It'll mean making and living with very HARD choices. it'll take decades of diligence and watchfulness to undo the harm that has been done to our country, our liberties and our freedoms. It may even include some bloodshed. Fore, those who crave power of the magnitude now held by those in our government and the sycophants that run the various alphabet soup of bureaucratic agencies, seldom give that power up willingly. History proves and teaches us this lesson, time and time and time again. Sadly some of We the People have closed our minds to that lesson and carry on in blissful ignorance. Content to be....slaves, so long as they don't have to be held responsible for, or live with the consequences of, their own life choices.
The preceding are just some of the thoughts running through my mind recently. Those thoughts and possible conclusions to which they lead me, frankly scare the shit out of me, some of them.
Anyway.....
