Interesting...

Found out today that a local magazine wants to do a story on my band.

The thing that gets me is that it isn't a music mag, it

is the premier city magazine and is targeted to the city’s most affluent residents. The magazine’s advertisers represent the finest businesses available in the area. Now entering our 2nd year of publishing, it continues its commitment
to highlighting the people, places, and lifestyle that make (redacted) a glorious place to live. Editorially, the magazine is oriented toward residents, newcomers, and visitors.

So I really can't figure out what they want with us.

Speaking of spineless-pig-whore-dogs...

Some fucking asshole of a spineless-pig-whore-dog stole our Obama sign. They also stole one of our neighbor's signs as well.

Funniest thing was that the boy referred to the culprits as "Savages". He's never seen "The Road Warrior" so I don't think he has any reference point.

Evidently we're not the only ones with this problem, Peter Frampton's sign keep getting ripped off.

Actually, its called corporatism.

Nobody likes paying income tax, you just do so the wheels of society keep turning. I know that if I could skip a couple of years or so it would really help out my ledger.

But if I actually skipped paying income tax for a year the GOVT would have IRS agents knocking on my door asking "WTF?" Then I'd be hauled off to the hoosegow!

But what if you're not really a person, can you get away with it?

Yes, you can.

Study says most corporations pay no U.S. income taxes | U.S. | Reuters: "Most U.S. and foreign corporations doing business in the United States avoid paying any federal income taxes, despite trillions of dollars worth of sales, a government study released on Tuesday said."

Now I know that corporations aren't people, but legally they are. I think that the heads of these corps should be hauled off to the hoosegow and forced to serve time.

But, that'll never happen.

Who puts the ASS into NASA?

I like big bass and I cannot lie...

I've always wondered how to build a room-sized sub-woofer.

Now I know.

So anyway...

The other day I found that I had a preference for bath soap.

I'd gone my entire life without ever thinking twice about the soap I used. What soap did I use when I was growing up? How about when I was single? To be honest, I can't name the soap I was using 3 months ago.

I think part of it is that real men don't care what soap they use because it's always Lava. And if they're out of Lava at the store they'll just use a wire brush and gasoline to clean their privates and be done with it.

For whatever reason, the words

see how lemongrass, pine, orange and patchouli essential oils can turn a boring shower into a truly groovy experience. You might think patchouli is only for hippies as it smells just a little too earthy. Well, flower child, you are so wrong! The scent is gentle and lovely but the full effect won't hit you until after your shower... when you experience a moment of true clarity.

sounded good. Even relaxing.

So I ended up trying Karma. And I liked it.

Now I fear I may be turning into a dandy.

So much for the punk cowboy thing.

It's supposed to be one vote, right?

Found this video over at Digg.

It shows the Texas State Legislature hard at work voting on bills. Nothing out of the ordinary. Nothing underhanded going on here. Just business as usual.

In fact, unless you are against elected officials stealing votes to get laws passed is not only illegal, but immoral as well then there's no reason to even click the play button.

To be honest, I'm just glad that they aren't letting any votes go to waste.

[end sarcasm here, start rage]

We got it, you're the President. Now can you quit fucking us over?

This should surprise me, but it doesn't.

Georgie Anne Geyer: A spreading terror | Dallas Morning News:
"Friends of his from Texas were shocked recently to find him nearly wild-eyed, thumping himself on the chest three times while he repeated 'I am the president!' He also made it clear he was setting Iraq up so his successor could not get out of 'our country's destiny.'"

This scares me for a couple of reasons.

If you have to tell people that you are in charge, then you aren't in charge. That's not how power works. It's like telling people how cool you are; if you are, you don't.

But the part that really bothers me is that he has chosen our destiny and we will be forced to follow it no matter what. What if "We the people" want out of this destiny? I thought we kind of showed that we wanted a change, did you not get the memo?

This newest revalation begs the question: have we ever had a president removed for being crazier than a shithouse rat?

I truly believe that our president dillusional and needs to be removed. But what can we do? Are there protocols for this? Is there a manual in the Whitehouse that plans for this sort of thing?

To be honest though, I don't beleive that he'll leave office after the next election. I think he'll break in his new, self granted emergency dictator powers and it'll take a coup to remove the madman from office.

MPEACHW

7 letters.

That's all it took to cause touble for Heather Moriah.

The letters in question are "MPEACHW" which are located on her personalized South Dakota license plates. The trouble is that after a single complaint the SD DMV want her plates back. DMVs typically have a list of offensive letter and number combinations that they won't allow to appear on plates but they're usually more offensive in nature. Things like "3M TA3" and "N05H1T" are on the red list and get refused right away, but since "MPEACHW" is a little harder to decode for anyone below a 2nd grade reading level it got through the system.

Here's where things get sticky: South Dakota wants the plates back, Heather wants to keep her plates. Heather says that her plates should be protected under freedom of speech. South Dakota thinks that the plates are offensive and that since the plates are owned by the state, they think that some may see some sort of state endorsement of her views.

Here's the best part, if Heather doesn't return them willingly the state will be forced to send law enforcement to get the plates from her.

See? Trouble.

Here's how I see it. Since the state issues and own the plates they can at any time revoke the license to the plates and ask for their return. IMO Heather should just return the plates and get the free replacements that South Dakota is offering.

Now before you get all mad and question my beliefs, I WHOLEHEARTEDLY SUPPORT THE MESSAGE, but the medium is wrong. Allowing her to have "MPEACHW" on her plates does in fact imply some sort of state endorsment. However, if she were to have the same plate in Vermont then all'd be cool.

The biggest problem I have with the whole story is that some fucking prig without a life even bothered to called and complained to the south Dakota DMV in the first place.

that person needs to be shot.

I said what?

Don't you hate when somebody uses your own words against you? I try not to be put in that position, but sometimes it happens, especially if you have a teenager.

Think Progress was able to dig up this nugget from the June 5, 1999 Scripps Howard/Seattle Post-Intelligencer where then Texas Governor George W. Bush said:

I think it’s also important for the president to lay out a timetable as to how long they will be involved and when they will be withdrawn.

I'm sorry, what?

Time-whatle?

Now, if only someone in big media could grow some balls and call him on it. What could he say? He'd hem and haw but he would know that he'd been stuck.

What's scares me with this guy is that he's going OJ on us. He really believes the shit he's feeding us.

And so it appears do a good majority of the forces fighting in Iraq.

Zogby International published the findings of a poll conducted with Le Moyne College’s Center for Peace and Global Studies and the findings are troubling.

Almost 90% of the troops polled believe they are in Iraq because of Saddam's hand in 9/11. That's right, even though we know who planned and committed 9/11 they beleive Saddam is to blame. I wonder where they're getting this info from. Are they being told this in the feild?

Again, this is something that big media should be looking into, but they're too busy collecting Murrow Awards.

So, I searched for Jesus Christ...

And found that there are 6 adults with the name "Jesus Christ" living in the U.S.

HowManyOfMe.com

There are 6 people with my name in the U.S.A. How many have your name?

What the fuck were their parents thinking?

YOU HAD 9 MONTHS TO COME UP WITH ANOTHER NAME AND YOU WENT WITH THE FIRST NAME THAT POPPED INTO YOUR MIND?

I checked my name and found that they could only find 1 with my name. I wonder if it's me or one of the other 2 guys with my name?

BTW, I checked. There are currently no "Adolph Hitler"s living in the U.S.

Notice

I wonder if this was written by a model or the gamesman?

Either way...
