The Death Knell for Obama's Re-Election . . . Or The USA

Hot on the heels of hard evidence that the scientists have been fabricating evidence that manbearpig is killing gaea with his evil plant-life-sustaining carbon dioxide emissions . . .

The religious environmentalist communists at the EPA declare CO₂ a dangerous pollutant.

This will lead to an endless string of lawsuits all the way up to the supreme Court (again) and in the meantime job creation will continue to suffer under onerous, baseless, enviro-fascist regulations.

PresBO is at the head of the EPA, nominally. Personally, I think the folks at the EPA just decided to make this announcement unilaterally, just in time for Copenhagen. It is yet another sign of a captain-free ship of State. The regulations will be big news spiked stories stirring up the electorate, right about the time BHO is up for re-election. IF the Republicrat establishment plays their cards right, it will sink him quite thoroughly. They haven't showed many signs of being able to criticize The Obama very well though, so instead this may just be the final nail in the US (and therefore the world's) economy.

We'll see!

"You Drew Yourself A Booger."

So said my Darling Wife as she cleaned the dry-erase marker off the face of our not-quite-2 year-old boy.

It all started innocently enough. He had a piece of paper to color on, but it didn't make very dark marks. Then oops! he colored on his finger . . . hey, that's dark! Let's see what happens when I color all over the palm of this hand . . . that worked so well, I wonder what it looks like in this hand . . . etc.

Somewhere in there, he probably put the tip of the marker in his mouth and missed a little bit, coloring on and in his little nose. Drawing a booger.

At least it wasn't permanent marker.

This time.

As Long As I'm Up Too Late . . .

Here's the first and possibly last post for the day:

On this day in history, anno domini 1941, we were attacked by a nation previously not our enemy.

The United States proceeded to kick their ass.

We firebombed almost every city in Japan at a time when their homes were made of wood and paper. When that didn't work, we used the only atomic bombs ever dropped in a war. Millions of lives were saved by not having to invade the Japanese homeland.

Peace through victory. Yes it was worth it.

Regulator. It May Be The Regulator.

The last few hours have been for me a crash course in automotive alternator/generator tech. 101. This is good because it keeps the brain healthy. This is bad because it means I still don't know what's wrong with my spare alternator. I plan to take it in for testing tomorrow . . . ugh, check the time stamp and make that today. If it works, the problem was dirty brushes. I've got 2.7 ohms at the wires on the brushes, which have been cleaned. IF it still fails I am leaning toward a bad regulator.

If that's the case, I'm going to slap the newly re-bearing'd front case on my car's currently-installed alternator and see if the noise remains (then it'd be the hard to replace bearing).

What a hassle. I didn't start out wanting to keep an older car running with pure elbow grease and brain juice. We bought this thing brand new. It's just sort-of happened. Oh well. We'll see what the testing machine says later, I guess. At least I know from previous experience that my battery has enough oomph to get me all the way home, should the alternator fail in any way that doesn't drain the battery. . .

Free Personalized Address Labels For Life*

Some time in the distant past, my Darling Wife made a donation to the Disabled American Veterans.

Since then, for several years, several times a year, they send us a fat envelope full of personalized address labels, with a solicitation for further donations. We use the labels instead of handwriting our return address when paying bills and toss the donation request.**

I guess hope springs eternal, but it can't be helping the bottom line at DAV to keep sending these labels out to people who haven't given any donations to their organization in several years.

*For a nominal donation
**Yes, we pay bills by check. If you set up automatic drafts on your checking account, you are either an idiot or doing a good impersonation of one. Paying with a credit card online is only a half-step better.

Alternator: Not So Alternatey.

I got my alternator reassembled with a fresh set of bearings, courtesy of Texas Alternator Starter Service* who replaced them while I waited.

Took the alternator to Advance Auto Parts, who tested it for me, free.

Two volts.

Time to disassemble it again . . .

Heck, if I find out only the front bearing is out on the currently-fitted alternator are bad, I may just see if I can swap the front housing with a fresh bearing over to the going-bad alternator.

We'll see.

********

*These guys are pretty hit-or-miss at customer service on the phone, based on my limited experience calling them. This is because they are busier than a one-legged man in an ass-kicking contest. If you go see them in person, they rock. The man took my rotor to the workers to see if we could replace the sliprings (no) and came back out and said they were already working on it. $0 to clean the front housing and press in the front bearing, pull and replace the commutator-end bearing, and turn the sliprings.

Sure, Why Not? Public Gay Sex Orgy Tents.

San Francisco is a pretty good place to find an example of every thing the Muslims use to scare people back into their "conservative" way of life, and embrace nominal adherence to islam. In other words, San Franciscans have about the world's lowest standards of morality.

They have street fairs to celebrate 'diversity' sometimes in S.F. The queers go to street fairs and bugger each other in the street, right out in the open. The solution to this is, apparently, to consider having a tent where they can go bugger each other. In public. Because, you know, they were born that way wanting to go have unprotected anonymous sex in public. It's in their jeans, you see, not that they are mentally deranged.

Global Warming May Require Higher Hip Waders

. . . Because The B.S. Is Getting Spread Pretty Deep!

In light of the fact that the planet has been cooling off for more than a decade now, and due probably in no small part to the President's BFF's being discovered as complete frauds who MAKE UP the "Earth Has A Fever" type data, I have noticed a lot more "Nyuh-uh!" type rebuttals to the glowbull wormening skeptics out there.

The icing on the cake for today was this one: Yahoo! News took an AP feed (but we can't quote AP, now can we?) and came up with this winner of an opening paragraph in an article titled "Global warming may require higher dams, stilts"

With the world losing the battle against global warming so far, experts are warning that humans need to follow nature's example: Adapt or die.

That means elevating buildings, making taller and stronger dams and seawalls, rerouting water systems, restricting certain developments, changing farming practices and ultimately moving people, plants and animals out of harm's way.

The emphasis is mine. Note well: we lead with a lie, and then say it is for your own good that we must restrict your activities to suit our approval.

It's about controlling you. It's not about the environment.

Dr. Zamboni Cures Multiple Sclerosis?

MS sufferers, don't kick the bucket just yet. Coming soon to a hospital near you whenever the medical establishment gets around to accepting it, is a potential complete cure for Multiple Sclerosis.

Italian Dr. Paolo Zamboni's wife came down with MS and he started doing some motivated research. He found an excess of iron could be a cause for the disease, and his wife had excess iron in the blood vessels in her head. Nobody, apparently, has made this Fe/MS link in modern days, so he got to invent the name Chronic Cerebro-Spinal Venous Insufficiency, or CCSVI, for his wife's problem. It's a fairly standard operation to open up blood vessels to clear a blockage, and the result is a removal of the excess iron. She seems to be cured.

He had a few dozen other MS patients go through this procedure and 73% of them are acting an awful lot like people without MS.

Cured.

In a DAY.

Just wow.
