  • I spent a week in that town one night....
A bunch of Hollyweird do-gooders who would prefer that us untermenschen sit and shiver in the dark, except to go watch their (overpriced) movies.

Some days even my lucky rocketship underpants won't help.


Bring me my Broadsword and a clear understanding.
Get up to the roundhouse on the cliff-top standing.
Take women and children and bed them down.
Bless with a hard heart those that stand with me.
Bless the women and children who firm our hands.
Put our backs to the north wind.
Hold fast by the river.
Sweet memories to drive us on,
for the motherland.

I think we need to recall the wisdom of Professor Quincey Adams Wagstaff, President of Huxley College:

"Whatever it is, I'm against it!"  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=29E6GbYdB1c  (sorry about the ad before you can watch the clip)

stay safe.
If cowardly and dishonorable men sometimes shoot unarmed men with army pistols or guns, the evil must be prevented by the penitentiary and gallows, and not by a general deprivation of a constitutional privilege.

Hey you kids!! Get off my lawn!!!

They keep making this eternal vigilance thing harder and harder.  Protecting the 2nd amendment is like playing PACMAN - there's no pause button so you can go to the bathroom.

In an interview in Los Angeles, Damon said he worries that viewers will wrongly assume the film is one-sided and not see it. He declined to offer his personal view on fracking. "That's not the point. The point is that (the film) should start a conversation."

Yeah, like their concept of "conversation" about gun control where they tell us what they wont let us do anymore and we just sit there listening.  ;/

A left leaning friend of mine, who has 80 acres on southern Ohio, has been negotiating for a year with an energy company. A few of his neighbors signed on last year.
I recenly told him to google, " I drink your milkshake". He did. His perspective changed somewhat quickly.
