Pork Fat Flu

Update:  The epidural went without a hitch so far.  Neck hurts – aches and stabs by turns.  Everything is bound up tight inside, that’s for sure.  Keep your extremities crossed. Found a good article today.  Cruel Wife is 5’1″ tall – maybe she’ll want to do this.  What’s 9 months of agony, she’s had two [...]

Epidural Chronicles II

What I didn’t realize in the last round of cervical epidurals was that the clinic was in “cost-cutting” mode. Regular stainless steel hypodermic tubing was swapped out in favor of needles made in Pakistan and India out of steel nails.  This wouldn’t have been a problem but the supplier got extra-really-awfully cheap and decided to [...]

The Epidural Chronicles

Quick Update:  Arlen Spector announces switch to Dems. There’s a shocker.  It won’t make a change in how the votes play out because the slimebag has been voting like a flaming libtard for years. ♦♦♦♦ Well, the Acupuncture Chronicles are a thing of the past. In the face of unrelenting pain, now we move into [...]

Jumping to Conclusions

Why?  Why must they look for the most sinister of explanations?  Should they rule out suicide immediately? Detective Inspector Mark Newham said yesterday that post-mortem examination results had showed Liu was shot repeatedly in the head up to 30 times with a high-powered nail gun. Look everybody, it’s “Gallows Humor Friday”.  It is actually a [...]

CSI is Largely Irrelevant

Capturing bad guys isn’t what it used to be.  Detectives are less and less a necessity. Key identifiers in a fingerprint make uniqueness but are not truly needed anymore. DNA is unique, even if damaged, but it just doesn’t bring in the bad guys like it used to. Yet the rate of apprehension is at [...]

Bias? We don’ need no steenkin’ bias.

I mean, once you see it you think “Oh, drunken lemurs… of course, why wasn’t that obvious?  It’s hilarious.” But it took a geniusioso with great masterfulness to put it into words.  Beautiful. I’ve been reviewed like this before.  It’s like being nuked. ♦♦♦♦ A wee bit worked up.  Model Plane and Jet Near-Miss.  Whaddya [...]

Road to Hell Paved with the Bodies of Sheeple.

Update: 21 Polo Horses Die at Fla. Match I’m no expert but perhaps there was too much water in the pool? (yes, mean joke) ♦♦♦♦ And the road to Hell is a nice wide road, good shoulders, well-lit… with damn few turnouts and no u-turns allowed. In The New York Times: F.B.I. and States Vastly [...]

Cloned Animals Almost as Tasty as Baby Ones, Docs Say

Fox News asks the question “Where are they [cloned animals] now?“ Well, they mean the actual cloned beast in each breakthrough.  Where are those particular critters right now? See if you can match up the letters/critters from the pic above with the pictures of them as they are now. ♦♦♦♦ This is so cool I [...]

Will post later but read this tripe first…

Alan Colmes says we’re unpatriotic for not wanting to pay more taxes.  One of his silly arguments was that lots of European countries have higher taxes than us. My response on the foxnews blog post where he dribbled his drivel was thusly: Making the argument that European taxes are higher and thus validates our tax [...]

As you might expect, it was chaos — while [...]

Truth. Justice. American Way. Dead. All Dead.

Over at Not Quite Wrong, this seemed to explain my existence.  Except I usually would put in the second panel:  Coffee, Red Bull™, tea, chocolate covered espresso beans, etc. Too bad this happens a lot, too. ♦♦♦♦ What do the next two stories have in common? Warning:  Death of Somali pirates could escalate violence. Ginsburg [...]

Blindly Through the Looking Glass

Well, this all looks like something we’ve never seen before, doesn’t it? We’ll start off gentle. ♦♦♦♦ Conficker has kicked in, the experts tell us sagely. The sneaky worm, which can jump between computers without human aid, has infected an estimated 3 to 12 million PCs and servers since last fall. I’m sorry, but when [...]

Club a WoW Seal Senseless Today!

Note:  I had put an anti-troll disclaimer up at this very spot but then read McGoo’s response to Troll Tessa, and thought “Damn, the wind ‘neath my wings… I will persevere!  I will survive! Clubbing virtual seals.  Oh.  My.  God.  This sounds like so much fun.  It almost makes me want to join up with [...]
