Infuriated by Growth Report, Democrat Candidates Try to Talk Down Economy
President Bush has compiled the worst economic record since the Great Depression
Saw this coming… now when unemployment drops next week the Dem’s will be without a platform. Again.
Did you realize that White Males Cause Binge Drinking?
If you have younger white males together to the […]

After his death, Osama bin Laden went to paradise. He was greeted by George
Washington, who slapped him across the face and yelled, “How dare you attack
the nation I helped conceive!”
Patrick Henry punched him in the nose and shouted, “You wanted to end
America’s liberty, but you failed.”
James Madison appeared, kicked him in the crotch, and said, […]

A guy I work with sent me this flash link. No agenda there, no sir….

Jay Bryant makes some (unfortunately) excellent points when he asks Are The Terrorists Right? I’m afraid our history bears out his arguments.
The Muslim terrorists think America is soft. They believe that if you put enough pressure - violent, physical, in-your-face pressure on the United States, it will turn tail and run.
When it […]

While doing a bit of ‘net research for a project I’m coding I came across the Regular Expressions Library. Talk about a time saver for the more complicated expressions.

GOP Fails to Break Pickering Filibuster? It’d be laughable if it were not so sad. What Filibuster?
“GOP Fails to Break Pickering Filibuster Threat” is more accurate. If they keep calling the threat an actual filibuster no one has to stand up and read the phone book for hours or days… […]

Big news that has to irk the Dems and rabid GW detractors, the Economy Grows at Fastest Pace Since 1984. At least some in the press are honest about their feelings:
News of GDP reached White House corps on bus en route to Bush event in Columbus. One reporter joked that the White House […]

The Hollywood weirdo’s

As if they don’t have enough problems… know any good shake-and-bake jokes?

A few interesting things floating around IT space this week. First off it looks like the Army is going Linux on their PDA’s. This is all well and good as long as they’re not planning on using GoldStar (LG) CD-ROM drives with them.
And while Micrsoft is getting a good laugh out of that […]

PC security is something most people miss when SBC or Road Runner come calling with a nice broadband solution. The typical first reaction to a sales pitch that includes “1.5 megabytes per second” is something like gemme! rather than what are the dangers?. Firewalls, anti-Trojan software, anti-Worm software, anti-Advertisment software, anti-Spyware software, anti-Virus software; […]

Every time one of the 9 Dems, or is it 10 now?, opens their mouths we get more proof they’re insane. How does the saying go? Better to remain silent and be thought a fool than to speak and remove all doubt? Thankfully we now know they think they’re campaigning in France. […]

One of the items where GW and I disagree is on this “Islam is peaceful” lie. So imagine my ire at him for fiddling while Rome burns. Lest we need additional reminders on religious tolerance Michael Evans has just what you need.

I found this picture linked to over on InstaPundit’s blog. Facinating.

This one shows how much are is actually burned down.

President Bush is not the only one saying it’s time to take sides
Freemasonry and Christianity were “fundamentally and irreconcilability incompatible” and … Freemasonry “teaches and upholds a system of false religious and spiritual beliefs that are contrary to biblical Christianity”.
The animistic/paegan belief system of the Freemasons has been known for some time. What […]

When reading about the Fatah gangs vow to kill Palestinians selling land to Jews I recalled reading one of Farrah’s articles on Naomi Ragen’s site. The article footnoted with a small but important bit of information

After 1948, the land of Arabs who left the territory of Israel was assigned to an administrator of absentee lands, […]

In only a few days much has come out on illegals and the damage they do to our Country and political system. First, Feds Let Illegal Aliens Steal Congressional Representation From Citizens which is no surprise for anyone in California, Texas or Arizona.
Then there is States Robbed of Political Voice by Illegal Aliens and […]

Lots of stuff going on over the past week or so and as there isn’t time to comment on it all I’ll only hit a few highlights:
Thanks Kyle, Hollywood is Dangerous to America.
The end of the Concorde has arrived. I recall when the Concord visited Indianapolis International, must have been 1985 or 1986. I’m sure […]

Every now and again I have to get by Charlie Daniels site for some down to earth reasoning
Man will never solve his own problems and the A.C.L.U. can go to court
until they are gray of hair and purple of face and they can?t change
the fact that God exists, that He is sovereign, that He […]

Mark Yost (WSJ) had a good writeup on his trip to Knobb Creek. But the battle over the so-called “assault weapons” ban is starting to heat up.
They’re trying hard to hide the failure of gun-control in Britian but then it rises to record levelswith 200 incidents every week making it harder to hide. This […]

Anyone planning on taking a day or two off to enjoy the fall colors and Indian summer weather had better do so quickly. So today after helping pour a slab I took a walk around the house. It was such a nice day that even though the sun was sinking quickly I ran down […]

It has taken awhile for me to get around to it but finally the shelves were put up in my office today. While I had the camera out I ventured into the Server Room too.

Two new galleries added. The Tall Timbers nature trail and Pine Bluff covered bridge are close and it was a beautiful day for it. Related galleries include the Rolling Stone covered bridge.

I’m a sucker for the G1 though I’m not sure why. It’s my favorite of the FAL variants. These kits were aquired through a Fal-Files Group Buy.
Overall condition of these kits is good though there are few missing small parts. These kits are in some ways not as good as the pair […]
