There was a riot of about a hundred “young people” at a Bridgeport, People’s Republic of Connecticut shopping mall on Saturday. It got so bad that the Bridgeport P.D. and the Connecticut State Bears had to intervene.
Of course, the news article didn’t mention the most obvious common characteristic of the rioters save their age. But I read some of the comments, and it looks like people are finally catching on, and asking some taboo questions about race.
Forty years old today.
I remember when 40 seemed old. Now, it’s the next tens digit rollover on the odometer for me. Just yesterday, it seemed, 30 was old. But I’m already well past that exit.
And there’s a lot to wrap up.
(1) I watched the last few minutes of This Week on ABC this morning, mainly for the Sunday Funnies. As they were rolling the credits, I noticed one of the camera engineers name is Rick Roller.
(2) Various Chicago city services weren’t open on Christmas Eve, in order to save money for the city. Among the closed institutions were libraries. Though who on the South Side noticed?
(3) ESR has two one-liners for the ages.
(4) A self-identified “transgendered anarchist” was hauled in for vandalizing a Democrat Party office in Denver. He can’t self-identify as transgendered too much, because he didn’t change his name to Pat. They can certainly cross from their biological gender to a pretend one, but they can’t seem to cross from the insane to the sane.
(5) Michael Vick was his team’s choice for the Ed Block Courage Award. What exactly did he do in the 2009 season that was so courageous? I suppose an ex-con not committing any more felonies is the essence of courage. Since the team voted for the award winner, this must mean that you could add the IQs of all the members of the Philadelphia Eagles, and that still wouldn’t be enough for two average people.
To their credit, PETA denounced the selection. But they weren’t exactly a conspicuous presence outside the Eagles stadium this season. I’ll give you one guess to why.
(6) The reason Ghandi-style and “Freedom Rider”-style civil disobedience won’t work when it comes to ObamaCare is because, this time, the libs are on Obama’s side.
(7) There’s hope for loser gamer guys to get some tail after all.
(8) When a Daley thinks you’re going too far to the left, you really know you’ve jumped the shark.
(9) I fully expect Bernie Madoff to “fall out of bed” quite of bit over the next few years, until he finally “falls out” a little too far and for the last time. In other words, they put him in the only Federal hoosegow where there are victims of his perfidy.
(10) There’s no element to human sexuality, freaky or otherwise, that a lib doesn’t want a teenager to know about. So let’s see how they react when the NRA gives those same teenagers knowledge about an element of the document that is in every civics textbook.
(11) Two-thirds of France’s imams are on welfare. Real comforting to know. I suppose provoking people to blow up busloads of Jewish children isn’t as lucrative as it used to be. Recession and all.
(12) ElizWright crowns the SPLC, and certainly not king. I found out something I did not know — the Poverty Palace has added that noted right-wing extremist Carol Swain to its hit list. Didn’t I say something about jumping the shark earlier?
(13) Aside from its six usual divisional opponents, we know for sure the other ten NFL teams who will have extra bye weeks in 2010. Question: After which loss will Steve Spagnuolo be fired?
(14) A typical AP writer and a typical NBA player are somehow involved in a story about guns. Did you honestly think that either one of them would get it right? Duh and duhher.
(15) I have no problem with John Kerry making a diplomatic visit to Iran. But I would have a problem with him coming back.
(16) Mike Anderson compares new FCC proposals and WebTV from the late 1990s. WebTV only reminds me of one of the most arrogant knaves ever to speak into a radio microphone, and that is Jim White, the Big Dumper. He was on in the late evenings, and by then, KMOX’s signal was heard throughout most of the eastern two-thirds of the country, with its clear channel position. I remember one night in 1998 that I was listening, and a woman from Indiana called in. The Big Dumper was doing tech talk, and she called to complain that Microsoft had removed Usenet Newsgroup functionality from WebTV. The Big Dumper’s response? Essentially it was, “Oh you stupid bitch. Why don’t you just use an abacus if you’re that backward?” How or why KMOX or CBS or Bob Hyland ever put up with that shit is beyond me. Doesn’t matter, I liked Roger Fredinburg and the Right At Night better anyway.
(17) Stephens College in Columbia? I haven’t even heard of it. But they’re evidently influential enough to start a fad.
(18) Jacques Rogge: Disappointed in Tiger Woods, but hearts the Jamaican drug testing program.
(19) Repubs feeling their oats b/c redistricting after the 2010 census will probably mean that reddish states gain House seats while blueish states lose. Don’t count your elections before they hatch, Rs — The reason a lot of those reddish states are growing in population is because of Hispanics, both immigration and procreation. I predict at least half of these new seats will be won by Hispanics or white liberals.
(20) Wealthy, privileged and educated. Yet, still became an AQ terrorist. What say you, Patty Murray?

I’ll return to blogging on Sunday.
Time weighs on the decade that was the first of the third millennium of Christianity. (Yeah, yeah, I know. No year zero. AFAIK, I just shorten the first decade A.D.)
Reading what they had to say made me weaken the world, i.e. think.
For my money, this decade was a noticeably phony one. From phony WMDs in Iraq, to the current phony in the White House and his phony image, to the well-crafted, er propagandized image of Tiger Woods that has fallen apart like a house built with tongue depressers, to phony subprime mortgages, phony global warming data, phony pusedo-moralists (Yes, Bill Bennett, I’m thinking about you), phony leaders of supposedly conservative organizations, astroturfing, home run sluggers on steroids, Bernie Madoff’s ponzi scheme, Enron accounting, overprocessed pop tart “singers” (read: Jessica and Ashlee Simpson), Dan Rather’s attempt to use phony documents to bring down George W. Bush, phony political images, John Kerry asking “where can I get me a huntin license” in that backwoods Massachusetts accent, balloon boy hoaxes, a phony 9/11 investigation, phony ministers, and everything else, I can conclude this much:
This was not the decade that was, it was the decade that seemed.
In a related note, Emma, my maternal grandmother’s name, was the most popular name for girls in the past decade. Aiden was the most popular boy’s name, so I suppose that there’ll be a spate of Aidens in college at the end of the 2020s, and in politics by the end of the 2030s. Matt used to be sort of a young name, but they came of age when Matt Salmon almost won Governor of Arizona in 2002, and Matt Blunt did become Missouri Governor in 2004.
The father for 30 hard and 60 soft days in the county’s involuntary asshole-widening service, and the mother for 20 soft days in a presumably less hostile counterpart after he’s done. Evidently, the judge wanted (not) balloon boi to have his parents free for C*******s, and to have one out and one in so (not) balloon boi has one of his parents to take care of him. Like they’ve been such great parents in the recent past.
The judge is also going to keep an eye on their bank accounts so they don’t benefit from the made-for-TV movie that will air some time this May on some network desperate for ratings.

Pittsburgh Backs Away From Plan to Tax Tuition in Exchange for ‘Donations’ to City
Pittsburgh officials shelved an idea for a first-of-its-kind tax on college tuition after two universities and a nonprofit health insurer agreed on Monday to make large contributions to the city.
Mayor Luke Ravenstahl hopes the contributions from the University of Pittsburgh, Carnegie Mellon University or Highmark Inc. will serve as a catalyst to get other nonprofits to help the city financially.
Ravenstahl had called for the 1 percent tuition tax on the city’s 65,000 college students as a way of getting money to help pay for some $15 million a year for the city’s pension obligations.
Nonprofits are exempt from most taxes, but represent many of Pittsburgh’s major employers and hold about one-third of the city’s property value.
This means that Mayor Steelerstahl hoisted the city’s universities up on their own petard, and the poor widdle babies didn’t like it. Awwww, don’t your heart just pump purple piss?
I say it’s just about time. Many of these “non-profit” institutions, such as universities and hospitals, are raking in so much money that it’s not funny. Mainly because higher education is the youth auxiliary of the Democrat Party, so when the Democrats are in power, they do everything they can (lower student loan rates so that students can get bigger loans, more grants, etc.) to let colleges raise tuition to funnel more money through academia, to engineer more Democrats.
But you what the fruit part about this thing in Pittsburgh will be? Pitt, Mellon and the others will raise their tuition in order to fund the “donations” they made to the city. And I bet it will be a lot more than a 1% hike. It would have been better off just to enact the original tax. It was all a setup/scam between Steelerstahl and the city’s universities.
Methinks Francis Slay is paying close attention. But he might not try it with SLU, b/c both he and it are Catholic.
Pay close attention. Whenever there is a murder of a very young child, i.e. under 2, it is almost always at the hands of the child’s mother’s new boyfriend.
Wherever there are masses of homeless teenagers, i.e. not yet 18 and almost always young men, there are mothers who have kicked their sons out of the house at the behest of her new boyfriend.
That’s the way it works with lions. A new male takes over the pride, then (1) Drives the adolescent males out to clear away competition, and (2) Kills the young cubs sired by the previous pride leader, so that the mothers won’t have the distraction when the new pride leader wants to romp.
The 911 on video game obsession
Frazzled Roxbury mom calls the cops on teen gamer
It’s game over for a 14-year-old Roxbury boy, whose overwhelmed mother was so exasperated with his incessant video game playing that she called the cops on him.
The final straw for Angela Mejia snapped at 2:30 a.m. Saturday when, “I woke up in the middle of the night and saw the light on in his bedroom,” hours after she had told him to go to sleep.
“Sometimes I want to run away, too,” Mejia said, breaking down in tears in her immaculate apartment. “I have support from my church, but I’m alone. I want to help my son, but I can’t find a way.”
Mejia is among thousands of parents struggling with today’s video-game obsessed youth. The Entertainment Software Association reports the popularity of video games is skyrocketing, with 42 percent of adults intending to give, or hoping to find one in their Christmas stocking this week.
Mejia’s son – one of four children the 49-year-old is raising alone – was playing “Grand Theft Auto,” an exceedingly violent video in which the gamer assumes the role of ladder-climbing criminal.
An argument ensued as Mejia unplugged her son’s PlayStation. Then, this mad-as-hell mother dialed 911. Police responded and managed to talk the boy into shutting off the game and going to sleep.
“They (police) were just like, ‘Chill out. Go to bed,’ ” the boy told the Herald.
Mejia said she approves of athletic-themed videos, but as for “Grand Theft Auto,” she said, “I would never buy that kind of video. No way. I called (police) because if you don’t respect your mother, what are you going to do in your life?”
I had the first Nintendo (8-bit), when I was about 11 to 14. After I started high school, I got too busy, and gave it away to the grandson of a friend of my mother’s. I toyed around with the Super Nintendo (16-bit) in an electronics store after it came out, just before after I gave my NES away. And, with its implied three dimensions and two extra controller buttons, it confused the hell out of me. Therefore, that’s when my gaming stage of my life ended. I couldn’t imagine how lost I’d be today with a PS3 or X360.
I can tell you one thing, though — There was no way in hell that I would have even thought about playing it at 2:30 in the morning, even if it was the weekend. If I did, my mother would have either started a bonfire in the backyard, or gotten the axe out of the basement — either way, her $50 investment (I paid for half of the original system and almost the whole price of most new games I got, save a few Christmas presents) would have been either gone up in smoke or chopped apart in teeny little pieces. That’s precisely why I only fooled around with the Nintendo when all the homework and projects were done, all the chores were done, and during normal waking hours. Hell, I even remember at one point when it was a nice Saturday afternoon outside, a friend and I were about three hours into Super Mario 3, which was a 4 hour plus game to beat, my mother got frustrated that we were keeping ourselves indoors on such a nice day, that she came by and unplugged the damned thing while we weren’t looking, then chased us outside. (In spite of my friend being the better gamer, I actually beat SMB3 before he did, and actually walked him through levels 7 and 8.) NES really didn’t have any gorey or mature games, that I know of, but she would have burned a CD/DVD or cartridge (NES used those buggy plastic cartridges) of a game like GTA if I dared sneak it in the house, then burned or chopped up the NES and all the other games as a punishment for my acquiring that kind of game. She certainly wouldn’t buy, or countenance me buying, a game like GTA.
If I were Miss Mejia, my kid wouldn’t have even thought about it. But knowing the fix she got herself in, she did the right thing, the only thing she could to discipline him. These systems and games are too expensive nowadays to destroy on a whim, so I’d pack it all up and hide it over at a friend’s or relative’s house, or let him keep it, but if he pulls this again, have the cops take him to some sort of pretend jail.
Oh, and Miss Mejia: Your kids don’t automatically respect you. You have to earn it by forcing them to respect you. And you won’t get that respect by being a pushover.
Good hoaxes, like good humor, contain elements of truth. The reason why so many people believed that Al Sharpton was upset that Tiger Woods didn’t have any black women on the side is that it sounds like something would say, or most people think he would say. However, while Sharpton might have done a lot of ridiculous things in his life, his rhetoric never seems to get insanely ridiculous.
He’ll go, or at least try to fit inside the state.
Sen. Whitehouse: foes of health care bill are birthers, right-wing militias, aryan groups
Senator Sheldon Whitehouse (D-R.I.) today took shots at those who are not supporting the health care legislation. During a floor speech, he excoriated Senate GOP members for holding up the pending health care bill and accused their supporters of being birthers and fanatics in right-wing militia and Aryan support groups. He started off by citing an editorial from the Manchester Journal Inquirer, which used the insult “lunatic fringe.”:
Reading on, and you’ll find out that Whorehouse merely parroted a very similar unhinged editorial in a New Hampshire newspaper.
First off, as someone who was tangentially involved in a “right-wing militia” (though it wasn’t as right-wing as I thought), until one of its leaders tried to hustle me out of money, and as someone who was aware enough of “Aryan support groups” (What’s an “Aryan support group,” BTW? A cry-on-the-shoulder circle of people where you go when the Fourth Reich isn’t working out as planned?) to know what they “think,” I can tell you that they’re not concerned about health care legislation. They think worrying about a health care bill is a distraction to keep people’s minds off of world government (according to the former) or “The Jews” (according to the latter). I’m not worried at all about any supposed Jews, but it turns out that world government opponents saw it coming for decades — it’s now common staple on the Drudge Report that world government is a’comin’, with the environment as the convenient excuse. (Previous speculated bromides to scare people into world government have included alien invasions (i.e. as in outer space, not from Mexico, which is why I don’t buy the Art Bell bullshit that you’re hearing on his show what the government doesn’t want you to know re space goobers. On 500+ radio stations, all of them FCC government licensed? Hello, Sherlock, there’s your clue. Three letters: C, I and A.), establishment-engineered financial or monetary crises (i.e. Soros), or nuclear holocaust (One theory why Truman dropped the Big Ones on Hiroshima and Nagasaki was that Japan was already defeated, but he wanted to unleash nuclear force to scare people into accepting world government based on the fear of nuclear ordinance. I halfway believe it and halfway don’t — That might have played a role, but I also think Truman wanted to avoid a million American casualties that would have come from going on the ground on the Honshu island heart of Japan, and neutering Japan outside of dropping nukes would have required just that.))
And like I have said before, the birther bullshit is coming straight from Rahm and/or Axelrod, to create a distraction, to keep “birthers’” attention away from health care treachery. Whorehouse should be happy about “birthers.”
I’m worried about a health care bill because I’m a political junkie, and always have been. I don’t believe that worrying about empty soda cans littering the street is somehow distracting me from the crooks way way way way up on high, because I have the mental capability to do both AND keep my eye on the fastball enough to read the stitches. The original multitasker, honey bunch.
But back to Whorehouse — Is he so wrapped up in his own ideology that he can’t possibly conceive of someone opposing current HCR bills simply because they’re a bad idea? What is he saying about himself when he says the things he does about the other side of the aisle? And if you read between the lines, if you believe that the only kind of people opposing HCR are these supposed “white supremacists,” then you have to think that the only kind of people who will benefit from HCR are the racial groups that are targets of “white supremacists,” namely blacks and Hispanics. And the traditional friend of “white supremacists,” i.e. white people, will be hurt. Is this what HCR is really all about? A huge racial wealth transfer, and death panels for old white people? Whorehouse just implicitly admitted so.
It’s official. EVERY MSNBC host is nothing more than an overglorified reader of White House faxes. Even Joe Scarborough.
But I’d be okay with thieves stealing every remnant of the Auschwitz concentration camp, not just the “Work Makes You Free” sign, if I were Jewish. That hell hole couldn’t be stolen piece by piece and disappear from sight fast enough for me. I’m far closer to the ethnicity that attempted and was almost successful with the genocide than the ethnicity that was the victim, and I still don’t want to see it with my own eyes.
And since I haven’t made any real blog posts since Wednesday, the stack is huge. Go make yourself supper, because this is gonna take awhile.
(1) Priceless. Eva Braun nude LOL. Windows Firewall LOL.
(2) Priceless Part II.
(3) Hollywood went over ten-figure mark for box office take in 2009. Slashdot’s take is that the MPAA’s worries about piracy are misplaced. I agree, but my take is that, for what movie tickets cost these days, 10 gigabucks means about 182 movie goers.
(4) At the very time I was reading this story about “there’s no such thing as race,” the TV came up with an ad for the osteoporosis drug Boneiva (sp?), the announcer said that two certain groups of that which doesn’t exist, Caucasians and Orientals, are at higher risk for osteoporosis. That, plus all the snow in Copenhagen for the glowbull (not) warming confab, and it shows that God does have a sense of humor.
(5) Ho ho ho, now we’re finding how how all the banks are able to repay their TARP loans so quickly. One word: You. So, they get billions, and don’t have to give billions on top of that. Merry Christmas, Citigroup. I can just imagine the Citigroup execs, most of whom are either not Christian or nominally but not serious Christians, singing right about now: “What a friend we have in Jesus.” Where can I sign up to become a bank?
(6) A certain prominent Federal judge told the ABA that “gangs are more deadly than Gitmo detainees.” I think what he means by this is that we’re supposed to be okay with brining Club GITMOers in country. I see it the other way around — the perfect excuse to send the gangs to GITMO.
(7) Laredo, Texas is about to become the largest “American” city without a real bookstore. It’s no surprise — how can a city full of people illiterate in two languages be expected to buy books?
(8) When did Texas become part of India?
(9) Oh no. If we ban champagne b/c of glowbull (not) warming, how else will MLB teams celebrate winning more games than four other teams?
(10) Michael Moore can’t boycott Connecticut. He couldn’t fit in Connecticut. But if he does, I should hope that he thinks of 49 other states to boycott.
(11) No Super Bowl ads for Pepsi. Instead, from what I read in this article and see on other MSM sources, Pepsi seems to be going ghetto.
(12) This is what my grandfather called “half-assing.” After 9/11, most Federal law enforcement agencies were moved under the ageis of the newly-created HLS department to end inter-agency rivalries and squabbling that prevented some intelligence from being seen and understood. But the half-assers left the FBI and ATF under DOJ/AG. The end result? Right.
(13) Gee, Sherlock. Do you think media conglomeration was a bad idea?
(14) Aw nuts. Someone killed Jesus just two weeks before Christmas.
(15) Be of good cheer, libtards. These things happen when you don’t have Rahm and Axelrod around to do your thinking for you.
(16) “Leadership Academy.” Remember when they were called “schools?”
(17) Want Missouri to keep its nine U.S. House seats? Counting more people won’t help, because Missouri is growing far slower than most other states — Hell, MO was lucky not to lose a seat after the 2000 Census. (Though, since most population growth in most states is Hispanic, I think it’s a blessing in disguise). What we really need to do is to dispose of the notion set after WWI that there should only be 435 House members. My idea is to give the median state in population exactly 10 seats, divide that state’s population by 10, and use that result to apportion House seats to the other states. And, racially gerrymander them so that Democrats can’t win the House, because white liberals can’t beat white conservatives in almost all lily-white districts, b/c of the lack of dependable black or Hispanic votes. I figure that this system would result in a Republican-run House of 550 to 600 members. With each new Census, the number of House members would increase slightly.
(18) Activists from a Chicago housing project want to start an “environmental justice” high school inside the building of a defunct military academy. WTF is “environmental justice?” My guess it has nothing to do with neither the environment nor justice. The activists have already created a 38-page color brocheure to outline their plans for the school. Will the report about the school being a failure also be in color?
(19) WSJ legerdemain — Perhaps there are good reasons for reforming the juvenile justice system in New York State, but the fact that there have been “abuses” in some NYS juvenile “facilities,” and the fact that the lion’s share of the state’s juvie offenders are black and Afro-Caribbean Hispanics, aren’t good reasons to do so. The reason there were abuses and neglect is because the junior hoosegows are full of affirmatve action minority employees. The reason that most of the state’s juvenile offenders are black or blackish is because blacks commit more violent crimes.
(20) Mother’s nightclub in Chicago? Thy days are numbered. And it’s a really low number. You’ve just become a human ATM machine for every black hustler with three brain cells. Don’t show fear in front of a dog.
(21) Someone is making off with Salvation Army red collection kettles in St. Louis County, while the bell ringers go inside for a restroom break. So, they’ll be caught, and if they stole enough money, be convicted of a felony and sent to prison. Once they get out, they’ll go to the Salvation Army for reintegration assistance.
(22) Because spy cameras have worked so well in eliminating crime in Chicago’s city streets, Mayor Daley has announced that they’ll be put into 40 Chicago city public high schools.

Tenn. boy, 4, caught with beer, stolen gifts
CHATTANOOGA, Tenn. (AP) – Tennessee investigators say a 4-year-old boy was found roaming his neighborhood in the night, drinking beer and wearing a little girl’s dress taken from under a neighbor’s Christmas tree.
The child’s mother, 21-year-old April Wright, tells WTVC-TV the boy “wants to go to jail because that’s where his daddy is.”
Wright says she and the boy’s father are going though a divorce. The boy, found outside his house in Chattanooga on Tuesday, was taken to a hospital and treated for alcohol consumption.
Hamilton County Sheriff’s Department spokeswoman Janice Atkinson says the incident is being investigated but the department declined to release the report.
The boy’s mother says she met with child protective services and was told she will get to keep custody of her son.
They took the boy to a hospital, thereby depriving us of a world record youngest person in the drunk tank. He’s 4 — doesn’t he realize that there’s no way he can be sent to an adult prison? Not even Missouri will certify a 4-year old as an adult. And I should hope that his mother is divorcing his jailbird father.
Gotta run through it really fast.
(1) Not all mail destined for addresses in Waterbury, New York, have made it to their destinations, because the PO workers there are so “overworked” that they have no choice but to hide it. I’ve seen the way a lot of PO workers “work,” and when they say they’re “overworked,” it means that they have do to their jobs at 75% intensity for 75% of the workday.
(2) The Federal alphabet gang and various CIA fronts are trolling F/B and Twitter, looking for illegal activity or people who disagree with Obama. AFAIC, I wish they’d troll my blog some more, they might learn something.
Back in the days when I was applying these energies to another medium, the media broke the news about Echelon. We found out that e-mails with certain keywords get diverted into Echelon, based on the premise that “bomb” in an e-mail means that somebody wants to bomb a building, when it usually means something innocuous. I read the list, and I added something called an “Echelon Disclaimer” at the end of my e-mail news updates, which contained all the Echelon keywords. That way, Echelon got all my e-mails, which hopefully resulted in somebody learning something.
(3) Isn’t diversity wonderful, mate? Abos and Samoans are bing-banging each other in Brisbane, and various activists from both camps have come together and demanded an end to the violence — against each other. Beating up whitey is still okay, apparently.
(4) An eight-year old MA boy was asked to draw something that reminded them of the “holiday season.” The boy had the audacity to draw a depiction of the execution of the religious leader whose birth is one of the many “holidays” we celebrate this time of year, so the school did only thing a good public school could do when Christianity appears — squash it like a bug. Or, in this case, they sent the kid home, and will have to see a shrink.
I hate to think what would have happened if this would have happened on the anniversary of D-Day.
(5) White British public school students who qualify for free school lunch are doing worse over time on standardized tests. (Though, for once, no mention of or fear about the BNP was mentioned.) First off, I have a feeling that there is some statistical funny business behind these results. After all, the UK has the University of East Anglia. Second, “white” might not literally mean white, in the way you and I think of it. And most obnoxiously of all, these results are being used to forecast waves of violence committed at the hands of young white men. I guess they think that because that’s what they blame for black crime in Britian (and almost everywhere else). But West Virginia is one of the poorest/whitest states in the union, and crime there isn’t bad at all.
(6) While in Rome, do as the Romans do. Just stay away from the blinds.

Re one Eldrick “Tiger” Woods.
Starting with the Thanksgiving night car accident and the revelation of mistresses number one through forever, I dismissed it all is merely the product of a man who doesn’t know how to keep it in his pants. I didn’t think they were relevant to his professional career in any way, past, present or future. And even though I’m a world class bigot, I didn’t see any racial issue here.
Until today, when the New York Times dropped the bombshell that one of Woods’s personal doctors is heavily involved in the performance enhancing drug scene. The obvious inference is that Woods is juicin, which the NYT seems to corroborate. And since I don’t read Jayson Blair on the by-line, I believe it.
It was one thing for Tiger Woods to cheat on his wife, but it’s entirely another thing if he’s cheating on his own profession. His wife is one thing, but he made almost an entire gigabuck on his tournament winnings and endorsements. The money in golf has gotten way bigger because of him — When Woods won the Masters in 1997, his first-place finished earned him $400,000, and he won the money list that season with $2.1 million. In 2009, the Masters winner (not Woods) earned $1.35 million, and the second- and third-place money was more than the first-place money in 1997. There is one tournament (TPC Sawgrass, pre-Masters) whose winner gets more money than Tiger Woods won in all of 1997. Woods and the PGA have fed off each other since he went pro, and there are going to be a lot of big money people who are going to be pissed off if it turns out that it was all faked up.
But then it hit me like a ton of bricks. His cheating on his wife and on his profession are the same thing. After all, why was I so foolish as to think that a man who stomps all over his wedding vows would also do the honorable thing in a sport based on honor? In most sports, a ref, ump or zebra calls you out for your fuck-ups. In golf, you call yourself out. A cheater is a cheater is a cheater is a cheater is a cheater.
When I was growing up, I was told over and over again that who you are and what you do are inseparable. So strong are the links between the two that who you are inevitably affects what you do. If you’re a decent person, you will do decent things. A person who does decent things must have a decent personality to begin with. Where there there are rotten apples lying on the ground, there is a rotten tree nearby. And where there is rotten tree, there will surely be rotten apples in the future. See rotten apples? There has to be a rotten tree. See a rotten tree? There will be rotten apples.
Today, I finally figured out that Tiger Woods’s tree is rotten.
WSJ writer speculates that the next great constituency for Republicans could be people who live alternate lifestyles but for some reason are averse to left-wing politics.
I agree with the premise, but not everything in it. The reason I do is because of a premonition I had almost three years about, about urbanism, i.e. a second wave of the late 19th and early 20th century American “City Beautiful” movement, becoming a new and major tenet of the conservative wing of the American body politic. And this fits well with what the WSJ terms the “Whole Foods Republican.” A person who shops at Whole Foods instead of China*Mart would also prefer beautiful and unique cities and urban environments instead of cookie cutter strip malls and suburban pre-fab residential construction.
(1) A Federal judge in New York City has ruled that the Federal government’s moves to defund ACORN are unconstitutional. (Little ole archaic me just happens to think that funding itself was unconstitutional. But what do I know? I’m just some schmuck in flyover country.) I researched the judge that so ruled (won’t mention his or her name), and the way I figure, ACORN et al. shopped the matter to his or her court, because they knew s/he’d rule in their favor. I doubt it will stay this way when it goes up the judicial ladder.
(2) British anti-terrorism authorities are worried that the children of certain minority group parents are being radicalized as young as the age of four. I don’t disagree that this is happening, but I do object to the presumption that the only reason Islamic terroristical boogie woogies become this way is because somebody brainwashed them. In other words, they assume that everybody is the same, and the only reason with certain people with a certain skin color who adhere to a certain faith become terrorists is because their environment was full of hate propaganda. It’s an outgrowth of the centuries old nature/nurture or heredity/environment debate, with nurture and environment being the official explanation — any other would violate the tenets of racial equality. You don’t need to radicalize Muslim children, b/c they’re already there.
(3) Now here’s a hockey stick graph we can depend on. Three words: Dubya did it.
(4) ESL schools hire a convicted sex offender to handle their security. Why wouldn’t they? They do have an affirmative action program, after all. What’s a lil’ ole’ rap sheet compared to racial diversity?
(5) I don’t get these lefty extremists protesting the glowbull (not) warming conference in Copenhagen. Do they not understand that the people on the inside are exactly like them? If anyone should be there protesting, it’s those who know that glowbull (not) warming is a corporate scam to get white people to become corporate slaves for no pay.
(6) Bush 41’s Clinton’s Bush 43’s Obama’s America: Native born white Americans shall not work in CS/IT.
(7) Three words: Colt McCoy fan.
(8) ICE agents hauled in almost 300 illegal aliens who ignored deportation orders and committed violent crimes in the interim. I suppose they’ll be punished with another deportation order. Stop in the name of the law, or I’ll yell stop again! This is your last chance, and if you fuck up again, you’ll get another last chance.
Then again, you already knew why a “deportation order” is a sad joke.
(9) Canada’s most respected national financial paper calls for a worldwide China-like one child per family policy. Translated into English, that means they want white people only to have one child per family. That’s because us white people are fucking up the world by having too many children, when most white ethnicities and populations in white countries are procreating at below replacement rate. Ireland was the only white country whose whites were above replacement until they legalized aborticide several years ago.
(10) No, Mr. O’Donnell, it’s not an “increasingly desperate” population that is shooting guns at cops, it’s an increasingly arrogant black population that thinks they’ve taken over because Barack Obama won an election.
(11) It looks like Tiger Woods is taking the 2010 golf season off to repair his marriage. If he takes ‘10 off, then he’s retiring for good, I think. As a matter of fact, after he un-Tigerlike blew a big Sunday lead in a major this past season (I think it was the U.S. Open), I got the premonition that he would retire after this season, because it wasn’t working for him anymore. Little did I know that I was right for the wrong reason.
Okay, then, make the contents of your hard drives public. Throw in your SSNs and bank account PIN numbers.
“Do no evil.” Yeah, right. I’m switching to Bing. At least MSFT doesn’t pretend that they’re anything but a for-profit corporation whose bread and butter is proprietary software.
(13) The story about the Obama-themed pencils and notebooks at the Columbia elementary schools has been discussed all over the web. But what interests me is this: They had to be purchased — they were not free. Doesn’t that somehow discriminate and have a disparate impact on some minorities? Maybe we need a “public option” for poor black kids to buy Obama pencils.
In 1910, a New York newspaper predicted that burglars of the future would use aviation to land on roofs as part of their theft conspiracies. In other words, they were worried about people who were up to no good using airplanes.
It was September 11, 1910.
Of today’s shit.
(1) Someone’s breaking into cars parked outside the K-Mart in Dogtown and stealing paid merchandise. That might be bad, but the trouble is that even if they’ve done a year’s worth of stealing, they haven’t stolen enough to cross Missouri’s $750 felony stealing threshold.
(2) Slop hawks STL’s Citizen Service line, because he says that city residents can help the SLPD bag criminals. Except almost all of those criminals in the city will have something politically incorrect in common, so don’t be so quick to call the city to report black crime — YOU might be the one they arrest.
(3) Metherson County wants the state to knock psuedo/ephed up to prescription status, to combat meth labs. That’s just what we need — another reason to close down the last few trailer park labs so that the meth addicts can buy from Hispanic gangs. If MO and Meth County are to have meth addicts, I would far rather have them get less potent varieties from trailer park outfits than strong shit from Mexican gangs, who will surely “settle” into Arnold and Hillsboro to “serve” their “customers.”
(4) TSA accidentaly lets loose of a confidential how-to manual, so now the terroristial boogie woogies now know how to slip past the affirmative action wand-waving black women that the Yankee government likes to hire. Which makes the sticky floor Greyhound bus really attractive right about now.
As it is, I have thought all along that the extra airport security post 9/11 has always been for naught a little bit — The next time they hit is, it’s going to come in some way we’re not looking for, and will be a total surprise to us when they do it.
(5) China won’t enforce any Glow-Bull (Not) Warming or carbon reduction treaties. Who’s the moron who thought they would? The MSM and Yankee government are full of morons.
Even if China would enforce any such treaties, it would be a moot point anyway, because China is a low pollution country in terms of CO2 per person. China has a lot of CO2 and other sorts of pollution, but the bottom part of the fraction is 1.3 billion.
(6) Club Limey: 260 British life sentence murderers are “doing time,” such as it is, in prisons with no walls or fences. Meanwhile, 260+ murder victims are still doing time in underground pine boxes. What’s wrong with this picture? Answer: PC.
No, I don’t mean in that scrot-sucking sense of the pervert left.
If the Tea Party were a real political party, it would beat the Republocrats.
(1) Guess who was right in the middle of Turnergate — I’ll give you a hint: Hal Turner is a NJ resident, and NJ just elected a new Governor, and said Governor might be mistaken for the Stay-Puft Marshmallow Man if he wore the wrong kind of hat.
(2) Three white and presumably homosexual men were assaulted early Saturday morning after having left a, shall we say, alcoholic establishment of alternate orientation, that’s on Manchester between Vandeventer and Kingshighway. And the assumption, and subsequent reaction, is that the crime was an anti-homosexual hate crime. I think it was a hate crime, but probably was not anti-homosexual — They’re not giving us description(s) of the suspect(s), racial or otherwise. That means the doers are black, and while it is possible they uttered anti-homosexual slurs in the process of their crime, the real motivation is anti-white, not orientation.
(3) President Obama is said to be taking cues from Tiger Woods? That could mean either one of two things: Michelle is about to be replaced, or Barack is playing golf while Afghanistan and the American economy burn. Note: President Bush gave up golf in 2003, when we went into Iraq.
(4) Speaking of the American economy burning, the unemployment rate was slightly down this month over last, mainly because so many unemployed people stopped looking for work that they’re not officially counted as people anymore by the unemployment bureaucrats. But of the few jobs actually created in the month, most went to either black women or Hispanics. That means government, quasi-government, or government-funded private make-work.
(5) I don’t know which side to be mad at: I could be mad at SEMO’s administration for not wanting toy guns on campus, but I could also be mad at young adult men wanting to play an overglorified game of cops and robbers, as if they got to 8 years old and then stopped.
(6) U.S. Surgeon General wants more “minorities” to take up medicine. Except she defines “minority” as ONLY black or Hispanic, not Indian (i.e. from India) or other East or South Asian, who, thanks to H-1B visas, are an ever increasing share of America’s physicians and specialists. They’re just as much racial minorities as blacks and Hispanics are.
(7) Kinda hard to be a good terrorist when you’re stuck in a burqua all the time. BTW, this story isn’t that new, because one Jody Weis is quoted as an FBI special agent. Weis (“J-Fed” — Second City Cop) has been Chicago’s Police Chief for almost two years now.
(8) The Defense and Education departments have a joint program where exiting Service members can transition to teaching in public schools. Are they allowed to bring the military’s discipline methods into the classroom? If so, that’s certainly what some classrooms need.
(10) There was a new USS Missouri commissioned this weekend. It will be an attack sub. One thing we know for sure — on some days, the interior of the sub will have to be both heated and air conditioned at various parts of the day. Commanders won’t trust their subordinates at face value — they’ll want to be showed the plans. For protein, there will be a mosquito breeding room on board, and to feed the mosquitoes, there will be a hydroponic mini-lab to grow ragweed. Crews positioned at extreme ends of the sub will constantly battle with each other, ensuring that no person from either end will ever be able to command the sub, though the only person anyone will pay attention to is that dork near the bottom playing a fiddle. And the only time everyone will agree on anything is that they’re not aboard the USS Kansas.
BTW, I’m surprised that President Obama is allowing this sub to be called Missouri. After all, he’s uncomfortable with victory, b/c it conjures up images of emperors descending from the top of a hill to get on battleships like the USS Missouri to sign a murtha treaty.
(11) In This Our Obama Time: Black gangs in Denver are so brazen and brash that they admit to police investigators that they’re specifically targeting whites to beat up for initiation. Furthermore, they deliberately did the crimes in front of surveillance cameras, becuase they wanted to be seen. (Hello, Chicago and London.) Now, let’s see the prosecutors in Denver squirm out of pressing hate crimes riders for a lack of evidence, which is their usual canard, i.e. they’re not bothering to look for the evidence which would take about five minutes to get.
And a few headlines.

KFVS: Prosecutors to seek death penalty for West Frankfort murder suspect
I don’t have to click the article to know that the suspects are white. How do I know? Because an Illinois State’s Attorney wouldn’t try to put any black people in the death house.
(1) If you give the French a chance, they’ll tell you what they really think of their country’s minorities. I could also add, Le Pen Prezz-E-daunt!!!
(2) British parents are being advised not to buy toy guns for their children, because the toys look too much like the real thing.
Answer: Paint the toy guns yellow.
That wasn’t hard now, was it? That means that Britain won’t do the easy and obvious thing, and do something complicated and big brotherish.
(3) The House has made permanent an inheritance tax on estates larger than $3.5 million. What that means is that since the Rockefuckers have trust funds, their estates are never taxed. But if you’re some upper middle class household who got to be a little successful in life, the Rockefuckers are having the Yankee government tax your estate so you can’t get as rich as them.
BTW, if I were fabulously wealthy, the estate tax or trusts wouldn’t matter to be, because I wouldn’t will my wealth to any children of mine. The reason is that if I had kids and were rich, they would have never known hardship and struggle, nor know what it is like actually to have to work for a living. Dropping a billion in their laps as young adults, and they’d use it to do a lot of dippy liberal or pseudo-conservative elitist shit.
(4) Those bandwidth caps that big ISPs are establishing like hotcakes? Turns out that there’s really no such thing as a bandwith hog, which is the excuse they use. Then again, I already knew that that was a bromide, because I knew whose backs the big ISPs are scratching when they put up bandwidth caps. Or worse, the ISP and an RIAA or MPAA affiliated record label or movie studio is under the same corporate roof.
(5) It says here that a criminal suspect will be given a “mental health evaluation” before he goes off to the county hoosegow. WTF is that all about? Are the cops/jail wardens/prosecutors trying to give his defense lawyers a ready made excuse right off the bat? You know how that is, if you want to play a round of golf against Tiger Woods, he would be gracious enough to let you use your long-established handicap to make it a quasi-fair fight.
(6) This sounds all so familiar:
Hitler officials step up monitoring of Jews
BERLIN – The Hitler administration in recent weeks has stepped up its monitoring of Jewish construction projects in eastern Berlin, Munich and Dusseldorf, WND has learned.
That’s not what the article actually says, but it’ll be panic time when Obama wants to paint Stars of David on the fronts of Jewish business with “Juden” underneath.
(7) Ron Paul’s Victory — Various politicians from the left and right in the House and Senate, and leaders of and activists representing both liberal and conservative groups, academics and bloggers, want to tell Benny Boy Bye Bye.
Got stuff to do tonight, so I gotta skim through what I think is interesting news today.
(1) I remember hearing a story earlier in the decade that the Bush administration decided to migrate the Federal government’s servers from Linux to Microsoft. And they wonder why FedGov computers are sitting ducks for crackers.
Then again, if someone did crack into them, we might see another dozen liberal sacred cows debunked.
(2) The so-called “Party Crashers” at the WH State Dinner last week? I think they were accidentally invited, when Obama didn’t want them there. Both Obama and Biden certainly knew who they were, because they familiarly hung out with them long enough. But Rahm and Axelrod had to get their smear on, because the row caused by them being invited to the WH, with their links to Palestinian terroristical boogie woogies and all, would be a PR nightmare.
(3) Amazing, that IQ, something that’s not supposed to matter, all of a sudden matters when someone with a slightly below average IQ is about to meet ole sparky. And it’s amazing how the IQs of those charged and convicted of Murder 1st and sentenced to death tumbles like jail garb in the dryer. BTW, one doesn’t need to have that high of an IQ to understand the difference between right and wrong. If we’re to follow the logic presented by this Texas death row inmate’s lawyers, then about two-thirds of America’s black population should be in those “special” homes. Even a bigot like me thinks that that’s insane.
(4) Feds using F/B to gather information for criminal investigations? Because F/B is such a reliable source. Don’t you know? Every adult white woman on F/B looks alike, and is a 36/24/36 Swedish blonde of 25. Every adult man must not own a shirt, and has rock-hard infomercial abs, and raven black Adonis hair. And they say all black people look alike…
(5) Does 109 in a 55, and only gets a ticket? After all, you can’t throw the NFL’s best RB in jail.
(6) Nice timing, dipshit: MO Enviro wants AG Koster to give back a 2.5 kilobuck donation from a water-polluting hog farm in northern Missouri. The donation was made last year, and something else that happened last year is that Koster won the election. Too late.
(7) Seattle cop killer said at Thanksgiving with his family at his aunt’s house that he was going to smoke white cops, schoolkids and random people at an intersection. And not one of his family bothered to call the cops? That must be one fucked-up family.
(8) Four words: What a stupid ass.
Mayor Slop lauds the effort at Gateway Elementary to convert its students into census takers, or more accurately, to train them to nag their parents into filling out the census forms.
I’m guessing that Gateway is a pretty good elementary school, as far as SLPS schools go. Because usually, SPLS students haven’t mastered whole number arithmetic until high school.
(1) Australian soldiers go to the part of the world where poppies grow the best, and they come home drug addicts. What a surprise, what a shock.
(2) Re “Kick a Jew Day” in Naples, Florida: Who kicked the Jews? I have a suspicion that they weren’t white, because the article didn’t say they were. And it would have said it if they were, AND quoted either the SPLC or the ADL. That it did not tells me that the instigators are a protected minority. Methinks they were Muslims.
(3) I have said on this medium before that some country that had previously tabled the death penalty years ago will bring it back in the next decade or two, that the country would be European, and the reason would be non-white crime. Now we have statistical evidence that their doing so will be popular.
(4) They proved that murderers tend to be psychopathic. Wow, great insight there, Sherlock. They want to use the evidence to get their clients out of the death house, but that same evidence should be the defense against the Murder 1st charges to begin with, if all this is taken at face value and consistently.
(5) How to solve the “Diversity Crisis” in the Coast Guard Academy: Outfit all the CG’s boats with chrome spinners and 2000-watt subwoofers. And eliminate the swimming requirement.
(6) Best Buy: The new Circuit City. (Hint: CC doesn’t exist anymore.)
(7) This reminds me of the old joke about IRS agents in a bus that fell off a cliff.
(8) Of 222 convicted murderes sent to Pennsylvania’s death row, including 7 cop killers, only three have actually been executed since the death penalty returned to the state in 1978. The psychic in me predicts that all three were white.
(9) This is why I don’t own a desktop computer whose screen is integrated — If the screen goes kerplunk, you’re SOL. Most of them don’t allow you to hook up a regular screen. Hell, most laptops allow you to do that!
(10) Bob Menendez hearts Osama bin Laden. Why? They’re fellow haters of white people.
If OBL actually gets a trial, then his lawyers can pull out the psychopath defense.
(11) Another oh-so-reliable data set that we can’t see.
(12) Hey you, Briton with multiple broadband lines. Wanna avoid being fucked up the ass with new taxes? One word: Router.
(13) Independent candidates are polling well in New England. Of course, that fits the mold — Independent and third-party candidates tend to do best in almost all white states, because there’s no racial consequence in voting for the independent. In states like Mississippi, a vote for a third party could only come from white conservatives, and it effectively means that a black or black-loving white on the Democrat ticket wins the election. I should also add that 3rds/Indys do better in polls a long time before the election than they actually do on election day. By the time people have to vote, most have fallen in with the R or the D, or figured it useless and stayed home. At one point, Pat Buchanan polled at 18% in Arizona in a 3-way Presidential race in 2000 between himself, and the hypothetical nominees of both major parties. But that was more than a year before the actual voting, and through that time, the hypothetical nominees became George W. Bush and Al Gore, and PJB shot himself in the foot with Ezola Foster. When the voting came, PJB didn’t even get a half percent of the actual votes in the state.
(14) Britain is well on its way to eliminating all crime. At this rate, they won’t use the word “crime” anymore.
(15) Life’s getting hard out there for The GIMP.
(16) No more Christmas music in NJ’s public schools. It’s just as well, there aren’t any Christians left in NJ’s public schools.
(17) The White House has an Anti-Semitism Czar? Hello, goofball. That’s an oxymoron. Haven’t you ever seen Fiddler on the Roof? To top it all off, she’s anti-Semitic.
The irony of most Democrats opposing anti-Semitism is because the main driving force for anti-Semitism, at least among white gentiles, is that many of those who are are losers in life, and therefore automatically assume that anyone who has more than they do (i.e. “The Jews”) must have used diabolical means. Hell, that’s been the Democrat’s election strategy since FDR, but not explicitly blaming Jews or appealing to white gentile anti-Semites.
(18) I can add a corollary to #4: They don’t like men being honest about the status of the relationship. That’s one pile of dog shit I stepped in this year.
(19) I’m thankful that someone in the MSM got the definition of “hacker” right for once. Even if it’s only once.
(20) Maybe Michael Bloomberg being able to run for re-election as NYC Mayor with no term limits isn’t such a bad thing. He blew through $100 million of his own money, and barely won. Here’s hoping that he bankrupts himself before he either dies or loses.
I wonder what it would cost to move the University of Minnesota to Beijing.
(22) MO the top state in the country when it comes to signing up eligible people for food stamps. I wonder which state is tops for creating conditions such that people don’t need food stamps? Of course, “best” is all relative here, b/c every state is underneath the Yankee government which has been run by free trade/open borders Republocrats for all my life and a long time before, so every state has a bad economy.

(1) Anti-Hispanic hate crimes were down in 2008 compared to 2007. What I’m curious about is that if a Hispanic is a victim of a hate crime (or any crime), he or she is categorized as Hispanic in th stats. But if a Hispanic commits a crime, he or she is classified as white. So if a Hispanic clobbers another Hispanic and yells anti-Hispanic slur words in the process, this means it’s counted as a white-on-Hispanic hate crime. How much of those are part of these stats?
(2) What I’m more worried about when it comes to US-India relations is the H-1B and outsourcing issues.
(3) I should say that any guy who tries to climb the water tower does have an “emotional issue.” The emotions have to do with some woman, and he’s got a can of spray paint.
(4) Everyone was worried about British laws mandating that authorities collect DNA from criminal suspects would lead to a dystopian state. Except the database is not much longer for this world, as it has been discovered that three-quarters of black Briton boys and men under the age of 35 have had their DNA collected. Just a little bit of yelling racism, and someone will hit delete.
(5) Blow Jobs: Not okay when “singers” simulate it on other guys on TV, but okay when Presidents actually do it to subordinate interns then lie about it to a grand jury.
(6) Jewish woman who won the German national high jump record in events running up to the 1936 Olympics in Berlin has had her record restored; the Hitler government had rescinded it because she was Jewish.
And they’re just NOW getting around to it in 2009?
Like, 1946 would have been nice.
(7) Let me save the Illinois Senate a lot of time and money. Here’s your study: Blacks misbehave more. And therefore, they get suspended from school more often, in spite of being in a state whose very symbol is the Abehole of racial equality, and whose public school system does everything it can not to suspend black students.
(8) How to save Missouri $5.3 billion: Give every person a high school diploma as a civil right of his or her turning 18 years old, if s/he hasn’t otherwise earned it. Therefore, all the social ills and lost wages caused by the dropout “crisis” will go away.
BTW, I don’t agree with the stats, because if all the dropouts earned/received HS diplomas, this would only dilute the job market for those with HS and some college but no college degree, and mean lower wages for all of them.
(9) Cass Sunstein wants to shut down websites that spread false rumors. Nice knowing ya, splcenter.org and adl.org.
(10) U.S. Attorney for Southern Illinois says that late closing times for bars and clubs in East St. Louis is the reason why crime is so high. Mayor Alvin Parks says that “drugs, gangs, drugs and domestic violence” are the causes. I say that they’re both wrong. ESL has so much crime because it’s almost entirely black. (BTW, I dealt with this issue earlier this year.)
(11) Israel has a thriving tech industry, in both hardware and software, for two main reasons. First, Israel’s population (save a certain minority that loves to strap dynamite to its back) has a high average IQ. Second, Israel doesn’t believe in outsourcing every job to Bangalore or insourcing Bangalore into Israel so that corporations can have cheap labor. That wasn’t hard now, was it?
BTW, how’s that Palestinian tech sector doing?
And a few headlines.

P-D: Rams will go with just two healthy QBs this week

Noting what I did awhile back, that budget problems in public defenders’ offices will mean that courts wil dismiss masses of current criminal cases and vacate numerous existing criminal convictions because of the lack of competent defense attorneys. The other possibility that courts rule that states must spend more for PD offices to head off mass judical dismissals. Already, SCOTUS has ruled that a Murder 1st convict must have at least a PD for the death penalty appeals process — underfunding in PD offices could well bring executions to an end.
There are more Han Chinese in China than there are white people in the whole world. There are more Indians in India than there are white people in the whole world.
Now, the number of people in Africa is higher than the total number of white people in the world. There are probably more blacks in Africa than there are white people in the whole world.
