In This World It Might Be A Bad Idea

The world's first anti-ageing drug will be tested on humans next year in trials which could result in people being able to live healthily well into their 120s.
Scientists now believe it is possible to stop people growing old and consign diseases such as Alzheimer's and Parkinson's to history.
Although it might seem like science fiction, researchers have already proven that the diabetes drug metformin extends the life of animals, and the Food and Drug Administration in the US has now given the go-ahead for a trial to see if the same effects can be replicated in humans.
If successful it will mean that a person in their 70s would be as biologically healthy as a 50-year-old.

To Kill Or Not To Kill

I am the proud owner of a classic 12 gauge shotgun. At least that's what my neighbor told me. He goes hunting all over the Midwest so who am I to argue? The weapon was purchased from an avid hunting friend of mine three years ago.

The piece of weaponry was in my home for a couple of years then Her Majesty said I couldn't keep it unless I bought a gun case. I didn't have the money so I forwarded it onto my son. The last time I visited him he gave me a tutorial. These do me no good at all. I'm the kind of guy who needs a lesson in the field. I'm the kind of guy who needs a lesson on the use of a lawn mower and those are the kind without an engine.

I don't know if I'll ever fire the gun. I'd probably shoot myself. Anyone, for home intruders, I DO have  a weapon. It's just that it's not in my house. Not to worry. I have many baseballs and can still plunk an intruder from thirty yards.

The reason for my opening statement is because I read an article in the Columbus Dispatch from Sunday, Nov. 29. The piece dealt with the money brought into the state coffers by hunters. The sum was $840 million dollars. Considering Colorado takes in $60 million from marijuana sales Ohio's cash bonanza must be a God send.

Individually, each hunter spends approximately $2,500 out of their pockets to pursue the four legged species.

I'm sure most all of you have heard the downside of deer hunting, especially from the PETA type folks. In reality, there are 34 million Bambi's running around our forests. Even more so, there are hundreds of thousands nesting in metropolitan neighborhoods as illustrated by the number of plants devastated from my wife's garden. Not to mention the two who decided to take out their anger and/or stupidity on two of my vehicles.

Hunter's barely make a dent in their total population bringing down around 6 million in a season. My Oklahoma buddy, Big Buff, told me this and when it comes to hunting he's the best and most knowledgeable person in America so I have to believe him.

To further illustrate 200 people yearly are killed in auto accidents while colliding with these critters, not a good number. I would suppose if you happen to be a morbid individual you'd say this is good because these deaths drive the economy; funeral homes, auto insurance, auto repair companies and all that jazz.

Did I mention the food provided fills not only tables for families of the stalkers but even more is donated to shelters for the homeless.

A word of advice on deer hunting: "Ready, aim, fire".

In Preparation For The Global Warming Conference

My last year of educational science study was in 9th grade under the tutelage of Mrs. Brown. I was a so-so student but did know how to read and comprehend.

My old boss, who is the most brilliant man I know, gave me some heady information on global warming. Since he could convince me I had the ability to turn iron into gold I paid attention to what he said.

The atmosphere is:
78.09% Nitrogen
20.95% Oxygen
00.93% Argon
00.039% CO2

95% of the CO2 is naturally occurring.

So there is zero science that provides a provable/testable model that CO2 is the primary cause of "climate change,” yet we are going to spend billions of dollars to affect the 0.00195% of the atmosphere that is human generated CO2?

Nothing To See Here. Move Along

Almost like the Colorado shootings: Still waiting for the White House to comment.

A day after New Orleans Mayor Mitch Landrieu and police Superintendent Michael Harrison held a press conference pleading with the public for help in catching the people behind the Bunny Friend Park shooting, the first named suspect, Joseph “Moe” Allen, 32, surrendered to police Saturday (Nov. 28).
Allen, who was identified by police Friday as one of the gunmen who left 17 people wounded in a shootout during a party at the park Nov. 22, declined to provide a statement upon turning himself in, authorities said. He will face 17 counts of attempted first-degree murder, NOPD spokesman Tyler Gamble said Friday.

This Is Not A Day Care. It's A University

A wonderful read:

Dr. Everett Piper, President
Oklahoma Wesleyan University
This past week, I actually had a student come forward after a university chapel service and complain because he felt “victimized” by a sermon on the topic of 1 Corinthians 13. It appears that this young scholar felt offended because a homily on love made him feel bad for not showing love! In his mind, the speaker was wrong for making him, and his peers, feel uncomfortable.
 
I’m not making this up. Our culture has actually taught our kids to be this self-absorbed and narcissistic! Any time their feelings are hurt, they are the victims! Anyone who dares challenge them and, thus, makes them “feel bad” about themselves, is a “hater,” a “bigot,” an “oppressor,” and a “victimizer.”

The Biggest Hoax Since The Cardiff Giant


Pic courtesy of the DrudgeReport


World leaders(ahem!) meet in Paris to save the world from the greatest threat in the history of mankind. Of course, I'm speaking of global warming---or is it climate change?

I'm sure, by now, you know that our leader has blamed the rise of terrorism on global warming. Luckily, these terrorist activities have not seemed to spread to Middle Eastern Christians and Jews.

I've decided to compare great world hoaxes. I'm torn between the Global Warming Conference and the discovery of The Cardiff Giant.

Colorado Shooter Not Republican. Identifies As A Female

robert lewis dearColorado Springs Planned Parenthood shooter Robert Dear pictured

If this person is female please, God, don't let me hook up with he/she in a bar if I'm totally blitzed. The Gateway Pundit has gained access to his personal records. They say he identifies as a female. Thanks a lot, Bruce Jenner.

Hillary jumped on the Planned Parenthood bandwagon while the shooter was still holed up. Classy, huh?

Anyway, from the photos the one being shown around the world is the most complimentary. The pic in the middle on the right is he residence of the killer. Obviously, he has to be a Democrat. Rich Republicans would never live a ramshackle hut like this. The assassinated officer should be remembered as a police officer and church minister who loved his family dearly.

Let's let the story play out. In the mean time offer thoughts and prayers for the family of the slain police officer.

The Sheriff With Cajones

1404427168000-jones
Butler County(Cincinnati) Ohio Sheriff Richard Jones is at it again.  You might remember a column written wrote about him not too long ago, when he was cracking down on employers who hire illegal aliens.   Well, he has now sent a bill to the government of Mexico for the amount of $900,000.

He explains that it is reimbursement for “taking care of your criminals.”  For that he has started receiving death threats from the Mexican drug cartels.  Sheriff Jones is unfazed by the threats:
“Am I afraid of that? No,” Jones said. “I’ve had people who’ve wanted to kill me my entire life and they haven’t killed me yet. If I was afraid of that, I wouldn’t have this job. I’d be a news guy. I’d be doing what you’re doing.”

Here We Go Hawkeyes Here We Go

If you aren't a fan of the Iowa Hawkeyes then kindly move along. Furthermore, If you don't follow all the teams from Iowa then I feel sadly for you.

We have a big game coming up today against the Nebraska Cornhuskers. The Hawks are ranked #3 in the nation and have the #4 seed, at present, for the National Championship series. The media are seemingly upset that Iowa is ranked so highly. It's the same is when teams like the Kansas City Royals are in the World Series. According to them it's not a real World Series unless the Yankees and Dodgers are playing.

I'm not so much a fan of the Hawkeyes as I am of our great State. As an example, in 1968 I flew to Europe. Our landing location was Luxembourg. As the plane circled the airport a couple next to me started crying tears of joy. They were so very excited to be returning to their homeland that can't be more than 15 miles wide east to west. It's not like they were returning to Shangri La.

 I get the same nostalgic feeling when I cross the Mississippi River that rolls by Davenport, aka, Quad-Cities USA. The only difference is I don't blubber like a stuck calf when entering our border.

I have never, not once in my seventy years, seen the Hawks lose---not once. If they're behind and it gets down to the last two seconds I shut off the television. When I'm certain the game is concluded I turn the channel back on. If a miracle happens I'm not bothered by missing it. Replays are oh so wonderful. This happened a few years ago when the Iowa quarterback, Drew Tate, through a sixty yard pass on the game's last play and my team defeated LSU in a bowl game.



Remember this Iowa and today's game: The beer commercial fella who is the most interesting man in the world said it best: "I don't often watch Big Ten football but when I do it's to see the only team that is undefeated".

Revere Massachusetts Schools: Abysmal Leadership

cheerleader

A teacher tweeted her disappointment with the low voter turnout in the town of Revere’s mayoral race. Caley Godino, a  cheerleader at Revere, Massachusetts High School said it was probably because 90 percent of the people in the town were illegal. She was probably wrong. 25% of Revere's population are Hispanic immigrants but I liked her point.

Her mistake, according the Supt. of Schools, Dianne Kelly(Call me a sexist but, seemingly, why are these loons female) was showing 'insensitivity'. Freedom of speech was not the issue, Kelly said.

Godino was required to pay for her sins. Her punishment? There was only one action the school felt was appropriate. She was kicked off of the cheerleading squad.

I fully realize this type of story appears in our news cycle on a daily basis. When I'm quite bored and feel the need to vent, as I do in this case, I google the school, find the email address of Ms. Kelly, then send her a nice note. I'll be one of hundreds of thousands who do the same. She won't read it but she, or her staff, will spend hours deleting these messages.

I'd also consider writing a letter of support to Caley. I seek out whitepages.com and find her address. For a cutie like her support can help overcome the stupidity of others.

Some Things Never Change

The Communist Party USA website has blogged a reminder to its readers: Karl Marx once worked as a newspaper reporter.
The CPUSA entry reads:
Did you know that one of Marx's first jobs was as a newspaper reporter? 

For The Hawkeye State Life Doesn't Get Any Better

I was lying in bed last night and a thought hit me. The Iowa Hawkeyes are ranked #3 in the country and #4 in the national championship seeds. That's heady stuff.

Furthermore, The Iowa State Cyclone men's basketball squad is now ranked #4 in the nation. Hoorah!

And, for the uninitiated, a few days ago our mid-major men's basketball team knocked off the #1 team, The University of North Carolina. Yes, that North Carolina. It's the one Dick Vitale sucks up to every year along with Duke.

Realistically, this could all come crashing down but I daresay there aren't very many teams from any state who would these bragging rights. And most people would be mentally challenged to differentiate Iowa from Idaho.

As for me, I'm going to rush out and buy a copy of Sports Illustrated featuring our football team on the cover.

If you've heard of the SI cover curse forget about it. Go Hawks!

Why Liberals Are Living In Fantasyland

Ever hear of Mike Morell? If not, he's the former CIA Director for Barack Obama. He recently testified before congress regarding our administration's lack of action against ISIS.

"Liberals, I'm talking to you". The reason our military will not bomb ISIS's oil fields and oil transports is because Obama does not want destroy the environment. I kid you not. Had this been the case had Obama was president from 1941-45 we'd all be saying, "Heil Hitler" and bowing toward Tokyo.

In addition, when we do bomb sites we give a 24 hour warning to the 'enemy' so as to avoid civilian casualties.

This philosophy, coming from Barack, is understandable. The climate change conference begins in Paris next week. According to our leader this(the recognition of climate change)is how we are going to defeat those who want to cut off our heads.

The Almost Perfect Gun Buy Back Program

There's a very funny story out of Greensboro, NC. The City Fathers wanted to have a gun buy back program. But, instead of giving money they asked those giving up their weapons to sign a pledge they would never commit acts of violence. There were 1,000 moonbats in Birkenstocks who showed up to sign the pledge.

Except, officials only received back a hunting knife and a BB gun.

If you visit Greensboro in the near future feel blessed. It is now the safest city in America.

November 22, 1963

I am a reader especially when it comes to contemporary affairs. On my list of favorites to read are twenty two publications. Along with these are a number of papers they publish.

Today, for the first time in memory I saw or read of no mention of the assassination of John F. Kennedy.

I was speaking with one of my long time friends today. He lives in Kansas. He asked me if I knew what was significant about today's date. Being the complete jerk I am I responded with, "What kind of moron do you think I am? Of course, I do" He didn't believe me so I had to explain the facts of life about the assassination of John Kennedy.

Kennedy fascinates me from the standpoint that he was a Democrat. If he ran for office today he'd be a Republican.

To illustrate from his inaugural address: "Ask not what your country can do for you. Ask what you can do for your country".

"Republicans Are To Blame For ISIS" BHO

Shame on me for hating these uncivilized bastards. But, then again, I vote Republican so it's my fault.

Syrian Refugees: No Way!

REFUJIHADIST
CNN ran a poll, published November 18, on how the American people felt about Syrian refugees being let into our nation. I don't know who these people poll. I've never been contacted. Anyway, the tally had 53% against and 28% for. This seems overwhelming to me.

This morning Fox News  showed the results of their poll from today on allowing Syrian refugees into the country. It told us that 67% were against and 23% for allowing Syrians into the country. Remember, please, that of the proposed 10,000 immigrants 97% are Muslims and 3% Christians. I don't know about you but this number gives me pause.

There's one other factor to be considered. The office of the Executive, aka the presidency, states his job is to enforce the laws of the Constitution of the United States; to protect and defend the American people. It's basic history but many times when this is taught in American high schools the kids are snoozing. Also, it's most likely not taught at all.

I don't want to get into the pros and cons of how many times Obama has violated the laws of the United States. Lord knows 52% of you voted for his re-election. I only wanted you to understand his job description. Most don't.

The point of this piece is Mr. Obama stated, while in Malaysia, he will do everything in his power, polls be damned, to allow as many immigrants into the country as possible while he is in office. We will have 'Open Borders', he stated. Truth be told there's only one reason for this. Eighty per cent of Muslims in America vote Democrat, also know as the LPSC Party. I don't have the numbers but my suspicion is this applies to Hispanics as well.

My wife asked if we might be able to take in some refugees. I'd be more than happy to especially if they were of the Christian faith. In other words, there will be no Muslims allowed in our condo. She asked why. "Because I love bacon".

End of story.

Earlier this week Barack Obama spoke to G20 members in Antalya, Turkey about the Muslim issue.
Obama said this:
“I think on the one hand, non-Muslims cannot stereotype. But I also think the Muslim community has to think about how we make sure that children are not being infected with this twisted notion that somehow they can kill innocent people and that is justified…

Joe Biden Is Still Playing The Stooge

Weather Scientists Demolish Gore/Obama

 
A panel of prominent scientists debunked one of the most popular global warming arguments ahead of a major United Nations climate summit to take place in Paris later this month.
The scientists slammed policies to reduce carbon dioxide emissions as “nonsense,” and they criticized politicians and activists for claiming the world was on the path for catastrophic global warming.
“The most important thing to keep in mind is — when you ask ‘is it warming, is it cooling’, etc.  — is that we are talking about something tiny (temperature changes) and that is the crucial point,” Dr. Richard Lindzen, a veteran climate scientist at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology.
“We are speaking of small changes 0.25 Celcius would be about 51% of the recent warming and that strongly suggests a low and inconsequential climate sensitivity — meaning no problem at all,” said Lindzen, who is also a senior fellow at the libertarian Cato Institute.

Our Leader's Philosophy



Weasel Zippers

It's No Wonder Colege Students Are Irresponsible

In watching TV last week, someone and I can't remember who, said the human brain isn't fully developed until the age of 25. By 'fully developed' they meant total development, physically and with a full sense of maturity.

I like this theory because it explains those actions I did in which I nearly killed myself. Most of these immature excursions occurred while I was in college but the years from 12 to 18 were filled with adventures rivaling anyone who partook in the First Crusades. God had to be on my shoulder considering the nonsensical activities in which I participated (mostly while in a drunken stupor).

If this is the case, the 25-year old braintheory, the #BlackLivesMatter crowd has a built in excuse for dufusness for the rest of their lives. They'll be able to say, "Hey, it wasn't my fault". This is like boys and girls having unprotected sex. When she gets pregnant she can say, "Hey, it wasn't my fault. He wasn't wearing a condom". And the guy counters with, "It wasn't my fault because (fill-in-the-blank)".

I don't really buy this 'brain maturity' story for all irresponsible actions. By the age of six most of us are taught the difference from right and wrong. By age ten we've even been indoctrinated into the Ten Commandments. By the age of twenty we all know, or should know, if we break the law we're going to have to suffer the consequences. If we lip off to someone chances are good we'll catch a fat lip or worse. Some have more common sense than others from the get go.

So, why is it we have so many social problems in the country? Darned if I know. But I do have a brain and after all these years it's fully developed. It's why when there's a war they never send us old people. Youngsters are too stupid and/or immature to figure this out.

News in Health, September 2005 - (NIH)Until age 25, the part of our brain that governs judgment, decision-making and impulse control is still under construction, so a parent’s job as “foreman” ...

Golf Anyone?

Betcha your Thanksgiving travel won't cost as much as President Obama's golf trips. As Americans prepare for the busiest family travel week of the year, Judicial Watch has released expense figures for Obama's swings on the greens and his family's vacations this year.
If you're among the nation's dwindling population of taxpayers, the Obamas' leisure travels set you back a little more than $3.1 million in 2015. That's just for the airplane.
 
The most expensive Obama outing was almost $2.2 million spent in June on 10.6 hours of flight time for Air Force One, a 747 that costs $206,337 per flight hour to operate. Obama took the jumbo jet to Palm Springs, Calif., to play golf with his Hawaii pals on the private course of Oracle billionaire Larry Ellison.

Senior Citizen Sex

An Arizona couple, both well into their 80’s, go to a Sex Therapist’s office.
The doctor asks, ‘What can I do for you?’
The man says, ‘Will you watch us have sexual intercourse?’
The doctor raises both eyebrows, but he is so amazed that such
an elderly couple is asking for sexual advice that he agrees.
 

When the couple finishes, the doctor says, ‘There’s absolutely
nothing wrong with the way you have intercourse..’
He thanks them for coming, he wishes them good luck,
he charges them $50 and he says good bye.
 
The next week, the same couple returns and asks the sex therapist to watch again.
The sex therapist is a bit puzzled, but agrees.
This happens several weeks in a row. The couple makes an appointment,
has intercourse with no problems, pays the doctor, then leave.
 
Finally, after 3 months of this routine, the doctor says, ‘I’m sorry,
but I have to ask. Just what are you trying to find out?’
The man says, ‘We’re not trying to find out anything.
She’s married; so we can’t go to her house. I’m married;
and we can’t go to my house. The Holiday Inn charges $98.
The Hilton charges $139. We do it here for $50, and best of all….
Medicare pays for it.

Does Being A Phy Ed Major Make Me Dumb

Yes, yours truly graduated from Coe College with a Physical Education Major. I'm an honest guy and will admit I only went to college to play sports, studies be damned. Basically, I wanted to have some fun and those who scoffed at me for being flippant about my inability to take college life seriously----Well, you should see me now.

After graduation in '68 and meeting the love of my life 9 months later I began feeling badly about my chosen major. Don't get me wrong. I know guys and gals who toiled on gym floors and playing fields. And these folks are wonderful people but I wanted something more so I pursued another major; one in American History. All one has to do is say them both and one sounds somewhat more prestigious than the other even though as teachers we received the same salaries.

Last night I was watching the news about France and terrorists and all that jazz. The President of France, a socialist(what else), Francois Hollande, made a pronouncement. Allow me to parse his words, "In the name of humanity we will continue our policy of accepting 30,000 more Syrian refugees"

What am I missing from Hollande? I expect these words from Mr. Obama but from a guy whose country has experienced such a horrendous massacre?

I haven't done biographical research on Hollande. I should. He might have matriculated in Physical Education.

Hillary Goes After The Laugh Factory

In what has to be a first in presidential campaigns Hillary's followers have openly attacked free speech.

There is a business on the West Coast called The Laugh Factory. You've heard of it, I'm sure. Comedians get up on stage and do their acts hoping to be discovered and move onto the big time.

Jay Leno, among many others, got his start at The Laugh Factory.

Five comedians in recent times have included Hillary in their act. Let's face it. She's easy prey for an amateur let alone a pro.

Anyway, her followers have demanded these acts be eliminated from YouTube. She has threatened the owner of The Factory, Jim Masada, and has done the same to those laugh acts who have seemingly made fun of her.

Luckily, for all of us, I snagged an article from Judicial Watch and viewed their performances. Hurry and take the opportunity to do so. If Hilly Mae gets wind of your indiscretion you'll be in deep doo-doo.

Oconomowoc Wisconsin Correspondent Straightens Me Out

I spoke with my Oconomowoc, Wisconsin(try saying those two words with a mouthful of marbles) correspondent this evening. It's been a long time since we have communicated but the conversation was worth a bundle of gold doubloons. The guy is a real dude and that's a good thing.

I've known him since he was in diapers. In recent times I've learned more about his values, wishes, dreams, goals and all that jazz and that's more than most people know about their fellow man.

One thing he mentioned about my blog writing is how much he enjoys personal interest stories, especially those that involve those activities we did in our youth. I concur.

Isn't it strange how we get wrapped up in what is going on around us. Lately, I've been wrapped up in the ISIS problem and have been focusing my postings on world events. How sad this is.

I'm going to do my best to relate stories from my youth in regard to my many childish indiscretions.
Lord knows I have a monopoly on stupidity and have lived to tell about it.

I bought a bumper sticker online today. My dentist told me he saw it on a car in Portland, Oregon forty years ago. It reads: "Jesus is coming and He's really pissed" It's a classic. If you see a Ford Taurus X with it on the backside you'll know it's me.

"Pick The Target, Freeze It, Personalize It, Destroy It" Saul Alinsky

President Obama hopes to make gun control the top issue of his final year in office, saying Americans aren’t more violent than other people but they “have more deadly weapons to act out their rage.”
In an interview published Tuesday in GQ magazine, Mr. Obama said easy access to guns is “the only variable” between the U.S. and other developed countries.

"Hey Folks, It's Called Attrition And That's Why The Donald Cannot Win"

Governor Bobby Jindal, Louisiana governor, announced he was suspending his campaign for the presidency. In other words, he's dropping out.

The Queen is very upset with the Trump candidacy. "I'm going to Ireland if he's elected", she said. It's about the umpteenth time I've heard her say this and each time I have to tell her to lighten up.

Granted, The Donald received another bump after the French attacks but it will wear off and here's why and it's quite simple.

In the next eight months all of the Republican candidates, except for three or four, are going to fall by the wayside. If you happen to be a Trump fan you'll heartily disagree with what I have to write. On the other hand, if you agree with me you'll down a couple of Jack Fires and celebrate like it's 1999.

As these candidates realize they are going nowhere and run out of cash where do you think their followers will throw their cash?

I can guarantee and promise not one of the candidates and their moneyed supporters will hang onto the coattails of The Trumpster. He'll be left in the garbage dump of lost memories.

I don't know who said it first but my promise to what I've written is, "And you can take it to the bank".

Why John Kerry Is A Buffoon

Secretary of State John Kerry told employees at the U.S. Embassy in Paris this morning that Friday’s attacks were more senseless than the Charlie Hebdo assault because there was some “rationale” for slaughtering the staff of the magazine that drew Mohammad caricatures.

Why Syrian Refugees

Did you know that 97% of Syrian refugees desired by Barack Obama are Muslims? For the ignorant and you know whom I'm speaking about, this leaves 3% Christians coming into America.

I'm surprised these Muslims would want to come to the United States. Why not move to other Arab countries and be with their own kind? Could it be that they already know this is the land of free stuff?

 Minnesota is a refugee State loaded with Muslims and they want more. These people have to be nuts to live there. Have you ever been to Minnesota in winter? The Sahara Desert it ain't. But, the Socialist/Communist legislature of the Gopher State is welcoming them with open arms.

Let's get to the point. Obama wants the Syrian Muslims in the US for one reason and one reason only. Of those living here who vote 80% support the LPSC Party. If you don't understand scroll down a few blog posts.

Silly Me. I Thought She Was Just A B-I-Itch

After reviewing more than 35 pages of email from top Hillary Clinton aide Huma Abedin, Judicial Watch observes that Abedin advised a State Department staffer that it was “very important” to review phone calls with Clinton because she was “often confused".

The Worst Man In The United States

Obama: Don’t Equate Paris Attacks To Islam

OBAMA: The overwhelming majority of victims of ISIL are themselves Muslims. ISIL does not represent Islam. It is not representative in any way of the attitudes of the overwhelming majority of Muslims.

Yeah, Right



Two years ago I posted a blog on this ridiculous bumper sticker. It's a dead giveaway for determining a liberal, usually old women and young college girls. Once in awhile I'll see young men(?) sporting one of these things.  They look like a pajama boy sitting around the house drinking cocoa.

I'm re-posting this as a reminder to the idiocy of some of our most esteemed; college types both in the administrations, faculty and those spending mommy and daddy's hard earned cash.

I've been so very, very blessed with my offspring. Some of my friends have kids who think the coexist sign should be a reality and they actually believe it can happen. Can you spell naïve?

Small Miracles

professor


A white Ivy League professor, Ali Michael, a professor at the University of Pennsylvania is a boon to the elimination of eggheads everywhere.
 
She has taken to the pages of the Huffington Post to condemn her own race, declaring that she chose never to reproduce because her children would simply inherit white privilege.

Obama Has Contained Radical Islam-Ahem!

Last year, Obama referred to ISIS as a JV team. Never mind that the Islamist State has since established a caliphate in Iraq and parts of Syria, killed thousands, amassed billions in their terror war chest and have raped, tortured and beheaded Americans.
 
Then on Friday, Obama told a national TV interviewer that ISIS was “contained” — which is delusional. That claim came after ISIS claimed responsibility for a deadly terror attack in Lebanon, killing 43 people and wounding 250 in a residential neighborhood. An ISIS affiliate also took credit for the recent crash of a Russian passenger jet that killed 224.
 
And now they’re taking responsibility for the attacks in Paris — the worst bloodbath in the City of Light since World War II.

ISLAMOPHOBIA!

Dem Debate: A Bust

OhHillNo-


Did anyone watch the Democrat debate last night? I didn't think so. This is another example of why the DNC is clueless. Saturday in November is wall to wall college football.

Is it possible they wanted it way, though? Why have the general public see how clueless their already selected candidate, Hillary, showed herself to be.

Because of the events in Paris the format was suddenly changed from the economy to world affairs. I would imagine the candidates cringed. What the hell do these people know about what's going on in the world?

Two items came out of last nights debate, according to the Wall Street Journal. Hillary stated that ISIS must be defeated but America should have no fight in it.  Judge for yourselves how you would handle this statement if you were to confront the queen of the pantsuit.

Bernie Sanders might have one upped her when he said Global Warming brought on the slaughter in Paris. Yeesh!

Oh, lest I forget, Obama clarified his statement made the morning prior to the slaughter in Paris. In an interview with George Stephanopoulos he said: " We have ISIS contained". Today one of his apologists clarified the falsehood by saying the President meant they are contained in Syria and Iraq.

Feel better?

Not Once A Mention Of Muslims

At no time since the heinous crimes committed by Muslim terrorists in Paris have we heard, from our leaders, the name 'Muslim Terrorists'. Not from Obama, John Kerry, Susan Rice nor Hillary has that word been expressed.

I am waiting for the blame on these killings to be placed on  a despicable video.

Wake Up America!
BREAKING=> Paris ISIS Terrorist Registered as
‘REFUGEE’ on Leros Island in Greece IN OCTOBER


The Obama administration is moving to increase and accelerate the number of Syrian refugees who might be admitted into the United States by opening new screening outposts in Iraq and Lebanon, administration officials told Reuters on Friday.
The move comes after President Barack Obama pledged in September to admit an additional 10,000 Syrian refugees in 2016, torn by four years of civil war and disorder.

Seriously? Send This Sexual Pedator To Jail?

A 9-year-old Florida boy could face sexual harassment charges for penning love notes to a girl in his class, his furious mother said.
The tiny admirer gushed about his crush, telling her she's "pretty and cute" while boldly revealing his feelings for her in the handwritten loose-leaf letter, ABC Action News reported.
"I like you," the Tampa fourth grader in the Hillsborough County Public Schools district wrote inside a heart drawing. "I like your hair because it is not sloppy. I like your eyes because they sparkle like diamonds."
This love note a 9-year-old boy in Florida wrote to his crush has gotten him in trouble. 
The romantic proclamations landed the little boy in the principal's office, where school officials threatened they'd get authorities to slap him with sexual harassment charges, according to ABC.

Tomato Soup & Toasted Cheese Sandwiches: A Woman's View

Believe it or not today is the second day of the opening of the college basketball season for 2015-16. It's an exciting time especially if your team is highly ranked and figures to contend for national honors.

This reporter stumbled downstairs this morning at 8am. Her majesty was on the couch in my 'Man Cave'. After our "good mornings" and "how did you sleep" conversations I opened my computer to look at the world news.

The Queen then said, "How about toasted cheese sandwiches and tomato soup for dinner"? It's going to be a chilly, windy day and this sounded good to me so I answered in the affirmative.

After a few minutes I remembered my team, the Iowa State Cyclones, opened their season tonight at 5pm against Colorado. The 'Clones' are ranked anywhere from 7th to 10th in the pre-season rankings. I mentioned this to the wife. She doesn't get too excited about basketball even when her alma mater is playing.

Ten minutes later she made a comment that only a woman can utter. She said, "the Cyclones are going to win tonight". She followed this with, "their school colors are the same as tomato soup and toasted cheese sandwiches".

The minds of men and women work differently, don't they?

Naked And Afraid

There is a story in the internet this morning regarding a second grade public school substitute teacher. It seems she showed a video to the students. It, the video, was taken from the television show, Naked and Afraid. If you aren't privy to the show it's about a man and woman, both naked(private parts blurred out) who are in the wilderness, trying to find their way to civilization, I think. I'm not sure about the actual premise of the show because it's one of those I surf by on my way to another piece of garbage on television.

College Students On A Rampage

"Citizens, today is the beginning of the million student march". I've seen kiddies from the Univ. of Missouri, Yale, Ithaca College and CUNY of New York strut their stuff. These youngsters have a couple of set goals: 1) eliminate the cost of higher education, 2) The cancellation of all student debt, 3) a mandatory $15 dollar an hour wage or all minimum wage workers on campus

Call me silly but these protestations might come to a halt Friday afternoon after classes are finished. You all know what I mean. It'll be bar time.

I'd love to be a college professor while these kids are cutting my class----F,F,F,F,F. But that's just the way I am.

I saw a sweet young thing, Keeley Mullen the organizer of The March*, on Neil Cavuto's show explaining the goals of these college kids. God love Neil. He could have verbally eviscerated her but he was extremely kind. The poor lass was clueless.** She asserted that the top 1% of all wager earners should pay 90% of the costs of education. I hate to tell her but most of these folks are on the Left side of the aisle; Bill Gates and Warren Buffett to mention the top two. "Say what"? One of these days and not that far in the future Tinker Bell will be there. I wonder how she'll feel about that in fifteen years.

I've written before that I have a partial answer to rising college financial rates. Kids should be required to attend a two year community college. It's inexpensive and they have the same subjects to conquer as the 4-year students; remedial English, remedial Math, remedial Western Civilization that they study at Vassar and the University of any State in the Union.

I spend a great deal of time at the Safari driving range in Dublin, Ohio. I like to talk to the high school kids who show up to hit balls. I'll ask where they're going to school and I'll get an answer like, "I'll attend Miami of Ohio in Oxford, Ohio". If you look at the costs for one year at Miami it would be comparable to what I made my first five years of teaching and coaching. I'll mention a JUCO and they'll wretch in horror. Granted, Dublin is an upscale community but why not do your mommy and daddy a favor and throw a little love their way? Of course, the parents are mostly to blame for this because they give into the whining of their offspring. It's like, "What will my friends think if I have to attend Columbus State"?

I find that the high school kids moving on to higher education at a two year school have after school jobs; Wendy's, Dairy Queen, Burger King. For some reason they understand the value of a dollar.

So, where did this all begin. Well, if you read the news I'd suggest it goes back to the 1% sit-ins and #Black Lives Matter, both of which are arms of the communist party. These people don't want to be associated with disruptions so they need a scapegoat and they found one.

Can you say, Michael Brown, the 'gentle giant'? Oh, I forgot to mention the liberal mainstream media. Egg on my face.

11-11-11-18

For the younger crowd, today is the anniversary of the ending of The Great War, 'The War To End All Wars'. Except, it didn't quite work out that way.

Many of you will look at the heading, scratch your head and ask, "What is MJH writing about"?

On the 11th month of the 11th day at the 11th hour in 1918 World War I came to an end. We honor the men in our home. My wife's uncle, her dad's brother, was the 3rd Iowan killed in that conflict.

The boys from WWI and pretty much WWII are now gone. Let's honor all the veterans who have served our country.

I Gotta Get Me One Of These

Screen Shot 2015-11-10 at 3.51.21 PM

Many of you have seen the 'Man Bun'. Hollywood types like Leonardo DiCaprio sport them. They are the new fad and go for only $9.99. This doesn't seem all that much considering the price of items today. It's the cost of two dozen night crawlers at Swanson's Bait Shop, Hackensack Minnesota. Plus, a bun looks a lot better on your head than 24 wriggly worms.

The top of one of my best friends looks like a billiard ball. He might go for a 'Man Bun'. Christmas is coming up and I can't think of a better gift. And a better way to end a friendship.

Even I could see myself in an ass hat------ if it was Halloween.

All You Need To Know About Mizzo

Prior to Rutgers and the Univ. of Maryland becoming members of the Big Ten Conference another school was under consideration. It was the Univ. of Missouri. This makes sense due to its geographic location.

The Big Ten, under further consideration, denied the school admission. Why? Their academic standards were too low.

After what has transpired in the last few days we all understand.

The Bamster Says No To Keystone Pipeline



From Hope n' Change by Stilton Jarlsberg
This guy is clever and on target. Make his site one of your favorites.

This N' That From Dublin Ohio

Time sure does fly the older one gets. Why, it seems like yesterday my mom was clapping her hands the first time I did a #2 in something other than my diapers. Anyway, Her Majesty and I were in Kansas for a week visiting grandchildren. Seven days zipped by faster than I drove I-70 from Dublin to Olathe.

Why is it, and don't call me a sexist, that a great percentage of women motor interstate highways in the passing lane? It is illegal in many states, Missouri included. Some folks don't like to be told what to do is, most likely, the answer.

Another idea I had but it's too late. Our interstate systems were begun in the 1950's in response to the German Autobahn's under Hitler. Their primary purpose was to be able to transport war materials with great expediency.

It's too bad, instead of having two lanes going in one direction four weren't constructed; two for cars and the others for trucks. I hate those guys, especially the ones who pull out in front of you to pass when there is no one behind you for miles. They then proceed to do their thing at one-tenth of a mile faster than the truck they're going around. And it would do me no good to flip them off since they could squash me like a slice of flatbread. You do know this is my biggest pet peeve because it's the fourth time I've brought it to your attention.

Fuel prices in the St. Louis and Kansas City, Missouri areas were under $2.00. I could live with that.

The spouse felt we should stop in Indianapolis on the way back, snag a motel, then be refreshed driving in. After 46 years she still doesn't get it. Once my hands grab the wheel we don't stop until my head hits the pillow at Muirfield Village, Dublin, Ohio. It's a 'man thing'.

If you appreciate Johnny Cash one can purchase, for $6.96 a CD with 54 of his greatest hits off of Amazon.

Have you ever purchased a CD because of one song? I did and it was from the movie, Finding Forrester, starring Sean Connery. The song is 'Somewhere Over The Rainbow". It was sung by a fat guy who is now deceased. He was Hawaiian and strummed a ukulele.


Speaking of CD's; I carry around 50 different ones with me when I travel. Strangely, I only seem to play five or six over and over.

Our children personally asked us to move to Kansas to be closer to them and our grandchildren. I thought this was nice but slightly out of character. Who wants their parents to be that close/close to them? And when they made this request they had not been drinking.

Flyover Country Is Heaven On Earth

Have you heard the news? The Kansas City Royals won this years World Series. If not, it was in all the papers so get with the program.

The Royals had a wonderful family team. I told one of my friends toward the end of the season not to bet against them. "They keep coming at you especially in the late innings". In other words, they never give up.

On Tuesday of this past week the City of Kansas City held a parade to honor the blue and white. Crowd expectations were to be around 150,000 lining the streets to welcome their hometown heroes.
Estimates, as the day grew longer grew to 300,000 then 500,000. By days end 800,000 loyal fans glommed into city center.

Royals fans are legion throughout he Midwest: Kansas, Missouri, Arkansas, Oklahoma, Iowa and Nebraska. Folks, 800,000 diehard fans is a ton of humanity. But there is one statistic that demonstrates how very wonderful and joyous it is to be considered a Midwesterner.

It is with great pride that I write that with this enormous, magnificent crowd there were only, all day long, three arrests made and they were for public intoxication. Let me repeat: only three arrests out of 800,000 human beings. There was not one murder(take that Chicago), not one mugging, pickpocket, knife slashing, flasher, or any other crime in which the police had to respond.

I'm sure the folks on the coastal regions are clueless regarding these arrests. It's commonplace for them.
For us born and bred in this part of the country our response is, three arrests? Such an outrageous number. What's wrong with our values?

O-H-I-O(with a smiley face)

By now you know the results of the marijuana vote in Ohio. It went up in smoke. It wasn't close. The latest tally had the 'doobie-munchers' taking it on the chin by a 2 to 1 count. Folks, there were more people in the US in 1941 who wanted the Nazis to take over the world than this pitiful number.

The Queen and I left for Olathe, Kansas on voting day. Two days prior my neighbor told me the vote would be too close to call. He said it stood at 43%-42% with the gas bags in the lead. I take him at his word. He's a national pollster which is how he supports his family. It's funny how pollsters sometimes get things wrong. In 1948 these guys had Harry Truman taking it in the shorts. The people hadn't yet spoken. Harry won in a landslide.

All 88 counties in Ohio voted against marijuana, even Cuyahoga which includes Cleveland. When a communist city votes against a liberal bill then you know it's a loser.

There were going to be 24 investors in Ohio who controlled ten monopolistic regions for weed growing. These people had already purchased thousands of acres of land to nurture their manure. What now brown cow? As for their new found property I hear animals for grazing are a winner. Dried cow pies make for good wintertime fuels.

I have to wonder about the demographics of the vote. Where were the 18-29 year olds? We know they didn't have jobs so that can't be an excuse not to vote. Were they too hung over or stoned to get to the polling center? This is highly doubtful. In Ohio we have a polls open thirty days prior to the first Tuesday in November so this shouldn't be used as a viable excuse. Polls are even open on Sunday. Maybe they were at church.

So, the pro-folks made a proclamation yesterday. "This fight isn't over"! Say what? I've got a message for these 'Cheech and Chong'ers'. Making that kind of statement losing 65% to 35% begs the question, "What have these guys been smoking"?

Hillary Supporters Want Sharia Law

You've seen Jay Leno from the old days when he'd go out on the street and ask silly questions of people and receive answers a 3rd grader knew. Jesse Watters does the same on Fox News. Usually these people look like dregs of society.

I have another filmed interview and it looks as though it was shot at a trendy ocean front in Southern California. Those being interviewed are Hillary supporters and look hip. They aren't.

I'm convinced I could ask any question of any 'average' citizen and if they didn't know the answer their ego would force them to make one up.

What is that was said in the movie, Forrest Gump, a few years back, "Stupid is as stupid does"?

Enjoy and cringe at the same time. These people vote.

Is This National Cat Day

If today is National Cat day it's news to me. I read a blurb about it on a cat blog. The article was titled, "5Ways To Celebrate National Cat Day". There were 18 pictorial slides to flip through but I wasn't that interested.

I don't own a cat; never have, never will. If I wanted a pet I'd go for either a goldfish or a dog. The only difference between those two is when the first one dies nobody cares. They both have to be fed although bread crumbs for a fish isn't going to take a bite out of your budget. I've always told myself if I did get another dog it'd be a Beagle instead of, let's say, a Labrador Retriever. I'd much rather pick up Tootsie Rolls than Ballpark Franks.

My first landlady in the hamlet of New Hartford, Iowa had a special way of celebrating Cat Day.(Or any day when kittens were around. She'd grab a hatchet, gingerly place the little puss on a tree stump and THA-WOMP! The kitty was instantly in cat heaven.

Others I have known do their cat celebrating in a different way. Step 1: grab a gunny sack. Step 2: place cat and or kitty inside said bag. Step 3: throw in river. The cat now becomes food for another cat, a catfish.

It's ecologically sound don't you think?

Make Love Not War

I had another one of those doctor visits this morning. The receptionist wrote out a note telling me my next appointment would be on Wednesday November 11 at 11 am. "Wow" I said. "That's the same day, time and month World War I, the war to end all wars, saw the armistice signed".

The lady taking appointments didn't know what I was talking about but she said her 93 year-old dad probably did since he was in the second big war.

As I started to leave the office nature called so I went into the men's room. While standing at the urinal I began thinking about war. For some reason my mind works best when I'm looking down at the urinal. Don't ask me why. It's a 'man thing'.

A couple of thoughts came to me. WWI ended in 1918. That seems like a thousand years ago. It was in the real olden days. Planes were introduced to warfare in The Big War as were massive cannon and machine guns. Even so, they were in their infancy.

Regardless, the end of this conflict took place only twenty-eight years before I left the warmth of my mother's womb and officially became a human being. Twenty-eight years isn't very much time to my way of thinking. Furthermore, I was born one year after the end of WWII. Even at the age of ten we kids couldn't comprehend the time frame.

In the 1960's my age group was subjected to the 'Hippie Movement". I think they started in an area called Haight Ashbury in San Francisco. Once a weird city always a weird city. It was also the beginning of the drug culture. We were subjected to phrases such as, "If it feels good then do it" and "tune in turn on and drop out".  Everyone has most likely heard of the hallucinatory drug LSD. It became popular because of some dude name Dr. Timothy Leary. Once again, I don't know much about him nor do I care to because when these 'freaks' were doing their thing I was shooting hoops or throwing the baseball around.

What I do know is one of their rallying cries was, "make love not war". That sounds good to our youth. Who in their right mind wouldn't want to have a go-round with Shania Twain as opposed to crawling into a foxhole in Zambia? I suspect, also, the 'make love' thingy is because they do most of the fighting hence most of the dying.

Also, if you think about it, war is and has been a necessary evil in our nation. After WWI came number II. Then four years later the Korean War. We first started sending troops into Southeast Asia in the mid-1950's. It wasn't until the mid-1970's that we crucified the South Vietnamese and left them to die.

The list of U.S. participation in global conflicts is seemingly endless: Cambodia, El Salvador, Cuba, Africa, Iran, Iraq, Afghanistan and a soup bowl full of conflicts in between.

The reason(s) for these has to do with exactly who and what we are(before Obama); a recognized world superpower. Our people have openly and without reservation come to the aid of those around the world suffering at the hands of oppression.

The point of this story is as long as the United States is around we are always going to be sending our sons and possibly daughters into harms way. As a matter of fact we should all get used to this occurring once a decade at the least.

This is what happens when there are civilized and uncivilized folks populating the earth. If you don't believe me try and get ahold of Cain and Able and see what they have to say on the subject.

No Heading Necessary

The White House has decided it will not release any emails between President Obama and Hillary Clinton until after he leaves office, a senior administration official confirmed to Fox News – a development that came as the State Department released another massive tranche of Clinton documents.

"She's Too Big For Jail"

“She’s(Hillary) too big to jail,” said national security attorney Edward MacMahon Jr., who represented former CIA employee Jeffrey Sterling in 2011 in a leak case that led to an espionage prosecution and 3½-year prison term. He cited a pattern of light punishments for top government officials who have mishandled classified information while lower level whistleblowers such as Sterling have faced harsh prosecutions for revealing sensitive information to expose waste, fraud or abuse in government.
