Um, okay.
Puddy Tat song: Mark is no Mel Blanc.
Goldfinger: Meh. Didn't listen through.
Still___-with-sound-track videos always seem like a waste of bandwidth. Why do we not have a YouSpeaker equivalent?
Anyway, nice for Mark that he can parlay his fame and popularity into selling these less-than-stellar works.
Stellllaaaaar!
My opinion, worth 2¢ less than you paid for it.
Unreliable Alarm Cat
Yellow kitty walks around,
Mewling turned up to eleven,
Waking me at five a.m.,
When I had him set for seven!
Morning, Glories!
Fun to have some time on the ONT, but I'm done with my evening beverage, and tomorrow morning we're going to the neighbor's daughter's funeral. So, gotta go.
You know when Jesus was talking to the apostles about the Father's "many mansions," and how he was going "to prepare a place" - I always liked how he added the simple assurance, if it were not so, I would not have told you.
Good night, Gracies.
Insomniac: Women get boners too, you narrow minded cis-gendered H8R!
What was that line? Maybe Mae West? Something like...
If you're a good girl, you'll get a boner. If you're bad, you'll get lots of them?
publius: ...No man ever sued to gain membership to some women-only club....
Well, there's those high school boys trying to be allowed in the women's showers, and the like. But they identify as women... allegedly....
cthulhu: ...Initial search responses focused on the fuel pump relay, which I'll have in a couple of days.
Hmm. Could it be the same creep who was hacking your ID (or whatever that was) has invaded your vehicle?

Gave the post the once-over. Looks good, as usual always, Maet.
Before I got back and examine the content more closely, I rush to pass along this vital information for Morons! ('Ettes optional.)
NSFW! Autoblow Balls Beauty Contest, a beauty contest for balls, is being held with the option to enter online by sending in a picture of your best feature guys. You can also vote at the site, and its quite a sight to vote on!
Link goes to Weird Universe (SFW) not the contest. But there is an amusing (SFW) picture there. (And "best feature" is WU's words, not mine!)
Spinach? Okay, a little late on that topic, but how often do I get a hook to hang this 2012 cartoon on?

Bruce Boehner: At least we can take comfort in the fact that if there were a football game between the Republican and Democrat presidential candidates, the Republicans would win. concede.
FIFY, in case nobody beat me to it.
BurtTC: Just wondering... could it be said the anti-gun movement started 52 years ago today?
Been thinking about the anniversary, hadn't seen it mentioned yet, and was thinking of remarking on it here, just because I missed the morning thread, and neither books nor football seemed appropriate.
Now I don't have to.
Arrgh. I yam a idjit.
Milady tells me I'd already posted the Atomic City review. It was another review she wrote later that I haven't passed along. That file is on another computer on another location.
Well, later I will.
Sugar Plum Fairy - with some IPs, comments appear to post, then vanish. I think that's what happens. I've got a list of AT&T IPs I've have trouble with. Banned because of some past user or based on the hashtag, I imagine.
May have to add a note to the unofficial unauthorized Ace of Spades Blog Commenters Survival Guide (link in nic) about this.
Ha. Just refreshed the page and noticed by the elevator bar that there's lots more comments, and the first comment I read is this:
OregonMuse: Holy crap, did the thread just up and die on me??
I'd say, apparently not permanently.
And who the hell would hang out on the book thread wearing a tutu??
Someone reading on her cell during a slack moment at ballet practice? (Don't mess with the ballerinas, OM. They kick hard. Daughter Webworker also took years of karate.)

Milady Webworker wrote a book review for me to post to the Book Thread. The date on the file is Aug 7, so I've been a bit slow getting to this. Digital file fell back behind a digital file cabinet is my excuse.
I notice she said she was only half through the book. This must be dozens of books back for her now. Here 'tis:
The Girls of Atomic City
I've been reading "The Girls of Atomic City: The Untold Story of the Women Who Helped Win World War II"
This is the story of Oak Ridge, Tennessee, a town created during the war for the sole purpose of trying to enrich Uranium and send it on to Los Alamos where it could be made into a bomb. Well, I'm pretty sure that's what they were doing. Being only half way through the book I feel like one of the girls in the story: I have my suspicions of what's going on. Unlike them, I can talk about it.
Denise Kiernan, the author, does a good job of mixing the personal stories of various women in many different kinds of jobs with the scientific and technical aspects of "The Project". There are several pages of pictures, including then and now pics of three of the women.
This is a very compelling story. I've been somewhat aggravated to have so much going on in my life at the moment that I can only read a few pages each evening when I should already be asleep.
Aside from the story itself, this book is making me think about how much has changed since the war. Some of these girls seem much younger than the average 16-20 year old today. I don't know, maybe they seem older, now that I really think about an average 20 year old. They didn't really know what they were doing, just that it would help to win the war. That was enough for them.
I can't help but wonder what these women must think as they watch our government work as hard as they can to turn nuclear weapons over to the mullahs in Iran. These young girls may not have known exactly what they were doing, but they evidently knew more and cared more about protecting the security of our nation than most of the people in Washington today.
Bruce Boehner: ...It's like there is some law of the universe that there has to be some asshole out there causing trouble, and if one goes out of retirement, another has to be appointed to take its place.
Heh. My thought has been, it's like you can map where the Devil is hanging out lately. Noting that the prince of lies moves on once his latest proxy is heading to an end; e.g., moved out of Berlin well before VE day....
Carol: Nood. Football.
Well, she's not nude. But she certainly seems flexible.
Have a day, y'all.
BTW, regarding the 500 errors and all that, you might find some advice in my unofficial, unauthorized Ace of Spades Blog Commenters Survival Guide - technical matters only, basically. Does not cover common blog memes or such.
JackStraw: ...40% of millennial think the government should censor speech that is offensive to minorities.
This and the other poll #s -- to get really depressed, watch some of Mark Dice's interviews with idiots on the street.
They'll "agree with Hillary" that we should institute Sharia law, and it's obvious they haven't got a clue what Sharia means.
They'll agree to change the name of Washington DC because George had slaves.
One of my recent favorites, did you know "gullible" is not in the dictionary?
Phones went out in mom's neighborhood for several days. The woman who works for her bought her a cell.
We got the number via my baby sister, but she warned us not to call mom on the cell, as mom might be confused.
Daughter visited yesterday and went over the phone with her. Mom said, basically I push this to call and push this to answer. Not hard.
Mom's four-and-some years from being a centenarian and still sharper than most folks. Heck, her TV remote control is far more complicated than the cell, anyway.
Laughing (amongst ourselves) at my Democrat baby sister's over-concern, our line, of course, is "still not as confused as Hillary!"
This stuff says, mix with water or juice and take 1/2 hour before meal.
Well, if it takes me 15 minutes to drink it, do I start timing from when I start drinking or when I finish drinking? Or average between? Or should I have slugged it down?
At least it seems to be working. (Never mind what with. Bodies are funky.)
