Deer in the yard. Coffee's brewing. Sun is... well, it's overcast but it's light out. Morning! Hope! Opportunity!

Good day, AoS artificial morontelligence software!

the Mrs said, any story that starts with "My wife's grandmother used to sleep in the nude," you know is gonna get weird.

thx, seamus

Coburn voted yea on net tax. Totally immersed in the kool-ade, ol' Tom. D@mm!t.

Is it this late already? Where does the day go?

Don't read Atlantic, and as with most LaughingstockMedia, I wouldn't know about any of these guys were it not for blogs talking about them. But I suppose the Olde Mediae still have some kind of influence with the Olde Publick, which requires watching them; thanks, Ace.

From experience with how garbled communications spark kids' ire, Significant Others' ire (and tenants', and employees', and commenters'), my Confuse-ometer lit up yellow seeing Ace send this:

"Plus, of course, @conor64, his continuing deranged obsession with Palin's fake-preganacy fat suits and secret passageways at hospitals."

To mistake to whom Ace refers with the pronoun "his" is relatively easy, if you don't read the whole sequence. If you don't read well. If you're unthinking. If you're unclear why Ace put @conor64 in there. If you're emotionally-driven instead of actually using the intellect for its intended purpose.

No need to wonder whether Ace's correspondent is insincere or ignorant; discombobulation, disinterest, and disingenuity are joined at the cerebellum.

" Nope. They'll come over to the new site. It will just take a bit more work for the developer." -CharlieBrown'sDildo

I know that's what they always say in theory. Funny about practice.

"...first property was defined with... "Touch my stuff and I'll kill you." ...t,the state came in was when a bunch of guy figure out they could take down Mr. Property Owner by ganging up on him... So it should be remembered that the state has its origin in group thuggery."

Pardon the ellipses if they seems to distort.

I think you missed a step. Govt is collective force, true. Govt starts (philosophically, not evolutionarily) when one family and another agree to respect and defend each other's rights and property. That works unless the mechanisms of self-govt are hijacked by tyrants.

"...if Ace ever ran a fundraiser for the express purpose of upgrading to a blogging platform that was easier to use for bloggers and commenters..."

I say again, be careful what you ask for. First thing that happens, all old comments disappear...

Lucifer had to be amazingly persuasive to mislead so many angels.

I love the look on the Christian haters faces when you mention that. It needs to be mentioned more often.

An in-law is the world's foremost authority on Nietzsche. I'm glad she was able to have a living in academia; she might've starved in the real world. But I never read anything by N (like the God is dead quote above) that I didn't think, don't know about the rest of his fillossifies, but theologically, what an idiot!

One cannot find God in Nature. One cannot find God in reason and philosophy. One can only barely glimpse God through the eyes of selfless love of another. Yet in faith God can so easily be understood as the Source of all matter, mind, and personality. Faith confounds the intellectually brilliant. Dawkings and their ilk never look so stupid as when they display their theological ignorance. Judas was the smartest guy in the room. Lucifer had to be amazingly persuasive to mislead so many angels.

paper w teacher's name was my 1st thought.

mo's name... &stomp, no, imitative

"paper with 'MOHAMMAD' written on it in front of the teacher and told him 'You stomp on mine and I'll stomp on yours.'". Excellent.

OMG, I can't believe I read all the comments; now I have to wave goodbye as if I weren't ever here. Enjoyed the baseball beatdown. And much of the rest. There were some, uh, insults traded I could've skipped if they'd been threaded.

God bless ya, Buzz.

I... really need to visit my 92yo mother more often.

Donny and Marie! Award winning blog content!

Yeah, I know it was the other thread.

Hello. Four-hundredth? (Noooot quite?)

Is the Clogginstein Quote Genetator's spell-checker routine buggy again? Or is it a new function emulating eschewing patriarchal linguistic tyrrany?

1. Cast off bad sock before I forget
2. Feed pets
3. verthrow government.

I can check one thing off my to-do list for the day, anyway...

Chicago release party music... was it this?

Next? administration?

Right-wing are almost cute when they're naive.

" reportedly spurred into action, tearing out a tree from the ground and throwing it through one of the windows to the home"

That's a news report you don't see every day.

Good morning, all. 80'F day before yesterday, snow in the forecast. It's Springtime in Oklahoma, which means Home of the Continuously Changing Climate.

I know this trick. I start a reply late in the thread and by the time I hit post, everybody has moved to the next thread. I'm not falling for it. No comment!

made it to comment 100 before brain collapse

and I would have read the whole thing, if it hadn't been for those darned award-winning kids!

zzzzzz
