News Roundup

And in other news that leaves a bad taste in your mouth:


maybe if you hadn’t invaded Ukraine…?


hands up those who’d prefer to see Sweden and Finland in NATO instead of Turkey — hmmm… all of you, huh?


the competition to see how many tampons someone can fit into their mouth will begin in 3…2…1…


as I told the officer during the Girl Scout Incident Of 1989.


there are so many reasons not to order a Diet Coke at any time, e.g. it tastes like shit, makes you thirstier and has as much effect on your weight as a Classic Coke — so its extra fizziness is just a bonus.

Great Moments In Medicine:


or as we call it in Murka, a “Clinton Suicide”.


thus proving that shit movies can be bad for your health.


or, more succinctly:  Get Woke, Get Fucked.


in order of importance:  dogs, chocolate, heat-sensitive explosive devices, soft plastic items, babies.

I report, you decide: 

  

And that, as they say in the Anglosphere, is the news.

Captiones Interrupti

I’ve suspended the Caption Competition until such time as people can actually, you know, post captions.

Here’s a picture of a gun, instead:

It’s the Beretta Modelo 75 (later named the “Jaguar”), one of the most beautiful handguns ever made — and it’s the one with which I learned how to shoot a handgun.

Login Problems Update

Tech Support finally has time available to get after the above problem, and we both hope that it will be fixed some time over the weekend.

For what it’s worth, I’ve felt the absence of the Comments feature as much as any of you…

Why 3 Strikes?

It’s not a baseball question.  It’s an argument in favor of it as criminal incarceration.  Tale this little litany of offenses committed by one Donald Robertson over in Britishland:

Two things come to mind:

  • The medical incompetence shown by various doctors doesn’t just border on negligence, it shouts out for prosecution or at least loss of license to practice.
  • The way I see it, two or more rapes could have been avoided if this scumbag had been behind bars, either through a 3-strikes system OR a system which denies bail after the first offense.

Also:  “jailed for life with a minimum of eight years” does not compute — “life imprisonment” does not in any way have any relation to “eight years”.  Life is more on the lines of twenty years (at minimum), with no bail possible.

So why am I rabbiting on about British laws and the inanity thereof?

Because this is precisely what the “Soros prosecutors” have in mind for our own legal system.

Dept. Of Righteous Shootings

Here’s how to be merciful:

A DeKalb County, Indiana, homeowner opened fire on four alleged robbers around 6 a.m. Sunday, killing two of them.

WPTA reports that the homeowner was asleep in his house when his dog’s barking awoke him. He then “saw three people in his home, later identified as 42-year-old Tabitha L. Johnson, Dylan Morefield…[and Rameica Moore].”

The homeowner claimed two of the people threatened him, allegedly holding a gun to his head.

After allegedly gathering a number of things to steal from the homeowner the robbers demanded money. He wrote them a check and was then able to get his hands on a shotgun and open fire.

His shotgun blasts killed Morefield and Moore.

He then walked Johnson outside the home at gunpoint, where he found a fourth alleged robber and held that individual at gunpoint as well.

Of course, he should have been able to whack all four;  but hey, I’ll take felony murder for the surviving goblins.

LOL looks as though you need more than four people to rob a house in rural Indiana…
