Oh, look! There's comments, too. Hi. Good evening. BRB. Just slipping out of something uncomfortable.

Croc v Shark - get the feeling this contest is old, old, old.

Didn't DC do this? Vicious Batman villain Killer Croc vs that goofy shark-headed Aquaman villain looked just like this.

Poker loser video.. heh.

One vice I never indulged, gambling. Partly my older brother flim-flamming me at every penny-ante hand when we were young. Partly my grandfather's book of advice to my father, in which he said, "Don't gamble. It's not right to take the other fellow's money, and it's sure not right for him to take yours."

But probably mostly the flim-flamming.

That reminds me, gotta check my lottery ticket.

Sasquatch was seen around here recently.

But the guy who said he saw him had been putting anti-freeze in his eyes, so...

HBO Benghazi movie? Hey, there's a world-famous filmmaker about to be let out of prison who they should hire.

Good evening, bloggers, commenters, lurkers, and NSA snoops. God bless each and every one of your little pea-pickin' hearts with the sweet mercy and wisdom of Lord Jesus.

In a republic, voting is an earned privilege, not a right. -rickl
.........
Maybe you mean it SHOULD be an earned privilege. It certainly isn't in this republic. -Chi-Town Jerry
.........
It's definitional. When (if) voting again becomes a privilege v a right, you have a Constitutional Democratic Republic. Otherwise, you just have a Democracy which as Al d'T said, lasts 'til The People realize they can vote themselves money...

There is no proper role for government to provide charity.

Charity comes from choice. Government is force.

There, in a nutshell, the war between true free self-government and all the socialists, communists, fascists, and big governmenters.

"But who will take care of The Poor and The Children and The Oppressed? Mean old h8r capitalists!" vs "Don't Tread On Me and Get Off My Lawn."

"National Park Service produces videos praising Islam's contributions to women's rights."

I can well imagine. Teaching those poor little old inferior women-creatures how to dress, act. think, feel, and die for 'way too many centuries.

But really, how is that different from Paul's insistence that women's heads should be covered in church, eh?

Moohoomed was such a women's liberationist, you remember how it was just women courageous enough to stand, weeping, at the foot of his cross... oh, wait, wait...

At least five killed in Nairobi shopping mall gun attack
Witness: Non-Muslims Targeted... REPORT: At least 15 killed... (Drudge)

Those Luddites and their opposition to consumerism are just getting out of hand.

The Kenyan President of the USA calls for Imam overlordship of all commerce. For the middle-class children.

In the alternate universe where the bomb went off over NC, Sarah Palin (Western Party) is President. Ted Cruz is Supreme Court Justice. Nobody named Bush or Carter or Clinton was ever President. And the Cubbies took the series in 1987. But Abe Vigoda is dead.

Fruit trees in my neck of the woods are just breaking down with braches full of fruit. -Cicero Kid

We have a many-years old volunteer peach tree by the compost bin that never produced more than a few hard little peaches. NE Okla is not exactly Georgia. This year, it's loaded with fat sweetness. Mrs made peach cobblers! Turns out, they need water.

I had to put on socks first thing this morning and I'm eyeing a flannel shirt.

I like Summer.

Great Holy Master, grant Slapweasel's brain some balance. Feel like I've been there, but not as a lifestyle.

Reposting-combining my two comments from the end of the ONT, because I'm an ignorant selfish troll for the group's edification. Also because that's all I have to bring... until the pets are fed and the coffee kicks in.

We regret the technical delay in bringing you this morning's post. As a consolation, you can reload the puppies GIF ... over and over... gets hypnotic...

I only read the blog for the absolutely positive solutions to overwhelming world problems. Got no time for all this idle chitchat about beer and beef stew and bent steel. So, I'll be back in the morning when the Serious Business You Guys gets done.

MIDDLEST! again. Boy, I'm good at this.

Good evening, Rodeo Clowns. Nice ONT, eh? Yeah.

Not true. As I fired, I yelled, "Fore!"

I'd like to see a Murder-by-Gun Map superimposed on that Racial Dot Map that the Cooper Center published a little while ago.

Hate to appear culturalist, but looking at the per capitas, I thought, now what would it be if you confined the numbers to certain, how do I say, those specific cultural zones exhibiting the worst anarchic violence.

Because stats are so worthwhile or something.
