Burger King Invaded My Brain
(You're Welcome America)

About three weeks ago a van pulled up
outside of my house and two men in lab
coats came up to me and said "You're a
white male between the ages of 18 and
35. How would you like to make some
money?" I was like "Sure, whadaIhav2do?"
(All one word)
They proceeded to put this brain
scanning device on my head (which
clearly
hurt at first) and told me to wear it
for the next 24 hours...which I did. The
next day they came back, took it off and
made me sign a piece of paper saying
that Burger King could use my thoughts
to develop their newest ad campaign. I
couldn't imagine how my thoughts (as
completely awesome as they are) could be used to
develop a Burger King ad.

The Supreme Court ruled on Monday that a
group of white and Latino firefighters
in Connecticut were unfairly
discriminated against because of the
color of their skin -- reversing the
decision of high court nominee Sonia
Sotomayor during her time in the lower
court. This is the 4th time
(out of 6) the Supreme Court has
overruled a decision by Sotomayor which
means she has been wrong 66% of the
time. 66.6% to be exact.
[ 4 / 6 = 0.666 x 100 = 66.666666% ]
Gotta love remedial math.
Despite being a piss poor judge making
wrong decisions on top of being
blatantly and openly racist (see her
quote below), she's expected to get
voted thru with little opposition just
like everything else on the Obamessiah's
socialist agenda.
"I would hope
that a wise Latina woman
with the richness of her
experiences would more often
than not reach a better
conclusion [as a judge] than
a white male.” — Judge Sonia
Sotomayor, in her Judge
Mario G. Olmos Law and
Cultural Diversity Lecture
at the University of
California (Berkeley) School
of Law in 2001
I
wonder where we can get a discount
on pitchforks and torches?
We've Been Über Busy...AND WE
BOUGHT A HOME

I know, I know...I haven't update my
website in forever but in my defense I
was kidnapped by orks and held against
my will at Saramon's Palace in Mordor.
Ok, that last part was a lie. I watched
Lord of the Rings recently and I have an
overactive imagination coupled with a
taste for a good Chardonnay. Where's my
light saber?
In reality, we have been busy house
hunting for the past few weeks and just
bought our first home together last
weekend (see below). All of that on top
of gearing up for Lakefest, Cantaloupe
Festival, my birthday, the Def Leppard
concert, and the Journey and GNR tribute
shows in SoBo. Talk about a crazy
summer.
I'll be updating sporadically until
things calm down...presumably getting
back to routine updates in late August
after we've moved and all our parties
and concerts are over.
WE BOUGHT A HOME...WITH A
POOL!!!!!!!!!!
Posted by

There's no better time than now to buy a
home and we hit the jackpot after just a
few short weeks of looking. We found
this nice, three bedroom home in a quiet
neighbor hood in West End Manor and of
course, the most obvious thing is....it
has a pool!
The house is really nice and has been
well maintained with colored walls and
hardwood floors throughout. The entire
property is fully landscaped with lots
of trees and lush vegetation and lots of
bird and butterflies all about. The
entire backside of the house is like an
urban oasis. The inground pool is
totally fenced in so I can soak in the
sun in my birthday suite if I want.
Considering that we close on July 24th,
the day before my birthday, that might
just be what I'll be doing. ;-)
All things considered I gotta say we got
sooooo lucky on this house. It still
feels like we stole this gem with a lot
of help from our FANTABULOUS realtor
Karen Lowery Hawks. She's a fellow
native of our home town of SoBo and
party pal of ours here in Richmond. We
just couldn't be any happier with what
she's done for us.
And despite my seething hatred of Obama
I gotta say I'll enjoy getting that
$8,000 tax credit for first time home
buyers thanks to his spendulous bill
passed earlier this year. It's my tax
money anyway...I'm just getting it back
from that socialist.

This pretty much speaks for itself but
just to be clear, military personal use
Sir or Maam when addressing anyone with
a higher rank so Barbara Boxer needs to
learn more about military protocol
before being such a bitch to a General.
Let's Have Some Fun With Liz

They say a fish rots from the head down
and now that the Dems are in charge they
have become really touchy about their
names. Example: Elizabeth Becton is the
scheduling/office manager for Democratic
representative Jim McDermott from
Washington. Earlier this week an
executive assistant at McBee Strategic
sent Elizabeth and email to schedule a
meeting and mistakenly addressed her as
"Liz".
What followed next was the sort of
madness that only comes from people
who's salary are paid for by you and I,
the taxpayer. Liz started a 19
email rant about how she is to be
addressed and how she hates being called
Liz. The assistant at McBee
Strategic apologized no less than 7
times but Liz wouldn't let it go.
You can read the entire email
conversation
here. (Go ahead, I'll wait)
. . . . .
Now wasn't that ridiculous and uncalled
for? So let's have some fun with this.
Send an email to Liz at
Elizabeth.becton@mail.house.gov
and either in the subject line or in the
body of your email be sure and call her
Liz. Say you want to schedule a
meeting with Rep. McDermott so you can
tell him to stop wasting our tax
dollars. Just make sure you say Liz
somewhere in your email. Or just sent
her a black email with the words "Liz,
Liz, Liz" or "Hi Liz" in the subject
line. Use your own imagination.
Or

email...all you have to do is hit send.
Jon Voight Calls Obama The False
Prophet (Yeeessssss!!)

Hollywood types are normally so
absentmindedly liberal that they
probably get nervous every time they
have to make a right turn in traffic.
Jon Voight is one of the few actors in
Hollywood with enough brains and balls
to speak the truth. While his daughter
Angelina Jolie is busy trying to adopt
the entire third world Voight was busy
calling Obama the false prophet. I
wonder if I can get Voight to adopt me.
FBO!
Zach Galifianakis Makes Kanye
West Music Enjoyable

It's no big secret that I enjoy Kanye
West's music about as much as I enjoy
clapping with one hand. Having said that
if Kanye had all his music videos done
by this guy I'd probably be a huge fan.
You can't tell me nothin'! Enjoy!
We Had Our "OH SH*T" Moment This
Weekend
Posted by
Jimmy :: Sunday, May 31st, 2009

Anyone that really knows me knows I love
my car. Sure, it's not a Ferrari or a
Porsche but I still love it. It's a 2001
Dodge Stratus R/T with only 35,000 miles
on it. I've kept it in showroom
condition for over 8 years now as
evidenced by the pics below that I took
just two weeks ago. It's kind of ironic
because these pics may now come in
handy.
Then some moron had to go crash into me
this weekend and tarnish my beautiful
ride.
We were sitting still in traffic and I
just happened to glance up in my rear
view mirror and said "OH SH*T!!!!"
There was a truck barreling down on us
at a high rate of speed and I just knew
we were about to get totally demolished.
Fortunately he slammed on brakes and
swerved at the last moment and only
grazed me but then he plowed into
another vehicle and did some serious
damage. It gets even better. Then he
kept going. I wasn't about to let that
happen so I nailed it and the chase was
on. It was kind of exhilarating to be in
somewhat of a car chase on West Broad
Street at rush hour. I caught up with
him in no time and had my blinkers on
and was blowing the horn, etc., and he
quickly pulled over in a parking lot.
The other vehicle caught up with us a
few minutes later and we called the
cops.
They (the cops) took care of everything
and luckily no one was hurt. I've got
Progressive insurance and I gotta say
they've been great. We gave them the
police report showing the other driver
at fault and they already have me lined
up to get my car fixed back to it's mint
condition.
It's kind of funny. When you spend so
many years taking such good care of your
ride it's almost like you're trying to
get the best medical care for a loved
one. I know that may sound silly to some
but I really do love my car and intend
on having it for a long, long time.
That's one of the advantages of working
from home...no commute.

Google is so awesome. One of their
search features is trying to predict
what you are about to search for. I was
looking for the answer to something and
started typing in the words "what are"
and this is what Google suggested. I
quickly forgot what I was searching for
and decided Google was right. Rock on
Google!
(I'm not making this up. You can go to
Google and try this for yourself.)
Meet Sonia Sotomayor (She's
smarter than any white male)
Posted by
Jimmy :: Tuesday, May 26th, 2009

No bring surprise that Obamessiah's
first pick for the Supreme Court is a
Hispanic woman who thinks she's more
qualified to make legal decisions than
any white male. That's not my opinion
mind you, those are her own words...
"I would hope
that a wise Latina woman
with the richness of her
experiences would more often
than not reach a better
conclusion [as a judge] than
a white male.” — Judge Sonia
Sotomayor, in her Judge
Mario G. Olmos Law and
Cultural Diversity Lecture
at the University of
California (Berkeley) School
of Law in 2001
Maybe
it's just me but that's about as
racist as it gets. Unless Sotomayor
believes that Latina women also make
better judges than Latino men, and
also better than African-American
men and women, her basic proposition
seems to be that white males are
inferior to all other groups in the
qualities that make for a good
jurist.
She
has also been caught on camera
stating that the Court of Appeals is
where policy is made which is
not true and one of the
biggest problems in our judicial
system today. Policy is made by
congress backed by the will of the
people. Judges legislating from the
bench in order to create policy is
just...well, WRONG!
