    The law of unintended consequences rears its ugly head -- AGAIN

    It seems that there is this sorta zero-sum-gain thing which has attached itself to the alternative power market. Those who produce power are costing those who do not billions of dollars. The PC thing to do, at the time of the writing of these laws on alternative power, was to force the power...

    Three cowboys are sitting around a campfire. The youngest cowboy says, “Last week, a mammoth bull gored 10 men on the range, but I stepped in and wrestled it to the ground with nothing but my bare hands.” Not wanting to be outdone, the second cowboy says, “That’s nothing. Two days ago, I was...

    A woman contracts an artist to create a mural in her mansion which best depicts the final thoughts of her great-great-grandfather, George Armstrong Custer, at the Battle of the Little Big Horn. She expects the artwork to be finished by the time she gets back from a European trip. Two weeks...

    Get ready for the redistribution of your retirement account

    The Congress has been eying 401ks, IRAs, and Roth IRAs for some time now. There is this big ol' pot o' money sittin' out there just ripe fer the takin'. They want to do to those accounts what Lyndon Johnson did to Social Security when he seized all of the funds and replaced them with bonds...

    Family gives away $40,000,000 artwork they can't sell

    By the by, this theft under color of authority has happened before -- recently. Note the part about "Deming, agreed to give it up in exchange for probation." Sound familiar? SOURCE

    As I have said in the past, the Digital Millennium Act is designed to force everyone on to cable. That opens the door for two way communication between the instrument in the home to anywhere in the world. When we had over-the-air TV it was not possible to build a transmitter into the set that...

    The indoctrination has been going on for years acclimatizing Americans to the fact that you are being watched all of the time. The attitudes finally shift to "Well, they are going to do it anyway so what the Hell."

    Verizon has patented a technology that allows them the listen in to their customers and direct advertising based on the emotional state of the customer. If they are arguing it might direct ads for marital counseling. If they are "cuddling" it might direct ads for contraceptives. Orwell didn't...

    Public enemy #1

    Syria and Iraq were not enemy states. The Muslim Brotherhood is a group that operates throughout the Arabic world, not just in Egypt. They seek to control as much of the Middle east as possible and Syria is no exception. It is not a crackpot theory. You need to study up.

    Public enemy #1

    I still believe that all of the WsMD that he had were exported to Syria prior to our getting there. Now that Assad is sending out feelers for asylum it may come to pass that those WsMD end up in the hands of upstanding young men of the Muslim Brotherhood who would never actually use them on...

    Family gives away $40,000,000 artwork they can't sell

    It seems that the IRS thinks the thing is worth a bunch so they wanted their haul. They taxed the family $29,000,000 plus a penalty of $11,200,000 for deliberately undervaluing the piece. You see, the government won't let anything that contains eagle feathers to be sold so the actual value of...

    I truly have pity for this bumpkin

    (Sung to the tune of "Do your ears hang low?") Do your balls hang low? Do they wiggle to and fro? Can you tie 'em in a knot? Can you tie 'em in a bow? Can you throw 'em over your shoulder like a military soldier? Do your balls hang low?

    I truly have pity for this bumpkin

    I believe "schlong" is more appropriate to magical penile powers.
