Psalming my way through the day
Though Obama is my president
I shall not succumb
He makes me to invest in useless green technology
He leads me into a still economy
He confiscates my earnings
He leads me in paths of socialism
for his parties sake.
Even when I walk through the gun show
or the security of the airport
I fear for the Republic
for he has people running guns and feeling up grandmothers
His czars and his staff, they vex me.
Surely debt and inflation shall follow me
all the days of my life;
and I shall dwell in the house of the
poor, forever.

All the cool kids are doing it
Mwahahahaha!
Hey, 40% evil isn’t that bad. I just need to tighten a few things up so that I can get a majority of evil here at Casa de Oso!

Someone’s weekend just got ruined
A U.S. Army PFC was busted at the Yuma, Arizona, airport yesterday trying to smuggle a small amount of C-4 explosive in his luggage to Los Angeles. Reports are that he obtained the explosive during a recent training exercise. Luckily it was C-4 he stole, so there probably wasn’t any danger to other passengers if he’d gotten through. That’s one thing the military made pretty much soldier proof. You can hit that stuff with a hammer, drop it from a building, and even set it on fire and it won’t explode.
My guess is that he wasn’t trying to hurt anyone and was taking it to L.A. in order to have a “Hey y’all, hold my beer and watch this!” moment. You get to play with some really fun stuff in the Army, and there’s always a temptation to show some of it off back on the block. However, it’s rarely good to give into those temptations.
My guess right now is that his chain of command is living the dream right about now. If I were the military authority that’s going to be rattling that chain of command, I’d include the Officer and NCO in charge of the range he stole the explosives from. You’re supposed to get searched and patted down when leaving any range, and obviously he either did a really good job hiding it on his person or someone didn’t do their job.
And people ask me why I’m not interested in management. After a few troops like this jackhole, you convince yourself that it’s just not worth it.

Darn it
I’ve been slowly progressing in coming back from surgery, but I’m still taking liquid opiates to control the pain. A little less each day, but it’s enough to make me a little foggy at times, and naps are my friends.
I had planned on taking this time when I’m home alone for a few days to catch up on all of the non-family, non-Irish Woman movies and TV that I’ve been putting off. I’ve tried re-watching Firefly, BattleStar Galactica, Star Trek, and a few movies on Netflix.
But I just can’t keep my mind on anything with a plot. I start to drift just as things get interesting, even during a 40 minute Firefly episode. Very frustrating when you come back to reality and find that you’ve missed the climax of an episode, especially when you do it more than once.
So I’ve been watching Futurama, Bugs Bunny, and a few other things. Guess I’ll just have to wait a little while longer before I go on that non-stop BSG marathon so that I can finally figure out just what the heck that show was about.
Sigh.

Good
The ‘parents’ who kept an 8 foot python in their home when they had a small child and then expressed surprise when said snake slithered into the crib and killed their child have been found guilty of manslaughter, 3rd degree murder, and child neglect. During the trial, it was revealed that the snake had not been fed for a month before the death of the little girl.
As a parent, I gave up a lot of things when the first of the brood came along, and I will probably never get them back due to grandchildren being due before the last of my spawn leave the house. These include dangerous pets, leaving firearms and such lying around the house when I’m not using them, and a whole list of other activities that just shouldn’t happen when you’ve got kids.
I’m not going to discuss whether or not it’s appropriate to have an ambush predator like a python in the house when your kids are small enough to look like breakfast to it. That’s open to interpretation and proper care, feeding, and control of the animal. Just like you can be a good parent and responsible gun owner, I’m sure that there are ways to be a good parent and responsible owner of an 8 foot carnivorous reptile.
I hope these two wastes of protein get the book thrown at them and have to serve the entire possible 35 years. I hope they have to spend 23 hours a day in their cells, with their enclosure papered with photos of their daughter. I want them to be reminded every moment that they are awake that they had a precious gift given to them, and they fed it to the snake.

Thought for the Day
Is President Obama the second coming of Jimmy Carter or is he closer to being the Democrat version of Richard Nixon?
Carter:
Nixon:
- Extremely adversarial relationship with any portion of the press that doesn’t toe his line
- Illegal political manipulation followed by cover-ups
- Imperial presidency
