Awesome
Great sports action over the weekend. I love college football, and seeing all those packed stadiums made me feel good about America and the fast that there’s still a lot of people that aren’t afraid to live their life. I ‘m excited to see it continue throughout the fall and the see the NFL get going as well. Of course there will be naysayers and of course every time there’s a slight surge in cases people like those who went to the games will be blamed. But we all know that’s bullshit. So don’t listen to those idiots. Live your life. Go to a live event, whether it is a sporting event or a state fair or a concert or a Renaissance Faire. Just do something that sticks a thumb in the eye of those assholes who want to see us all locked in our homes for the rest of our lives against our will. Their aims may be good (although I doubt that), but their methods are madness. And that’s sports, kind of.
Thanks, dude.
French revolutionary and friend to America Marquis de Lafayette was born on his day. In my opinion, we should scrap Labor Day and replace it with a day honoring guys like him. He came over here and risked his life to fight for the concept of freedom in a foreign land. He shares it with: the guy who developed the atomic theory John Dalton, bootlegger and father of substance abusers Joseph Kennedy, baseball players Harry Danning and Vince DiMaggio, guy who tried to kill Hitler Philipp von Boeselager, redneck musician David Allen Coe, rocker Roger Waters, actress Swoosie Kurtz, Molly Hatchett’s Banner Thomas, actor/mouth noise guy Michael Winslow, dumb fat guy Chris Christie, woman with a lovely voice Dolores O’Riordan, and first baseman Derrek Lee.
OK, now on to…the links!
That South Carolina story keeps getting weirder. I need to call my mom about it today and let her spin some local gossip.
Photo showing parts of two separate countries.
An entire nation of brainwashed bootlickers. And I mean commie China, not the free nation of Taiwan.
You know they’re serious because they’re colonels. It’s always the colonels who carry out coups, good or bad. Because the generals are all basically politicians.
This attention-seeking asshole needs to go. Maybe he can get in front of a camera and cry about that too.
These people are savages. That’s it. That’s my entire take.
Pedo-killing hero
Hopefully they’ll give him a medal next. Because he did the world a service.
Aren’t ex post facto laws illegal? Oh wait, it’s Chicago. The government can steal by whatever means necessary.
What a bizarre story. I’m surprised global warming and/or toxic masculinity haven’t been added to potential causes. But I’m still holding out they make an appearance.
“Reportedly” passes for fact these days. It’s not as retarded as the Rolling Stone bullshit piece (that I’m so sure has been linked here enough that a metric tons of drugs would fall out of my ass if I reposted it again), but it’s pretty shoddy reporting.
Here’s a freaking awesome song. Ok, maybe that’s a slight oversight. But the video is a masterpiece. Enjoy it.
And enjoy your extra day off (hopefully), dear friends!
Why was Momar Qaddafi still a colonel after he was in charge of the country?
The glass ceiling ?
That’s an interesting question, did he still have Generals?
Ghana was led by a “Flight Lieutenant” for many years.
Idi Amin had a cool title: “His Excellency, President for Life, Field Marshal Al Hadji Doctor Idi Amin Dada, VC, DSO, MC, Lord of All the Beasts of the Earth and Fishes of the Seas and Conqueror of the British Empire in Africa in General and Uganda in Particular.”
Jean-Bédel Bokassa declared himself emperor and changed the name of his country from the Central African Republic to the Central African Empire.
Well, they are a small country so maybe not that many senior officers.
Related.
Germany was lead by a corporal.
Liberia’s dictator was a sergeant.
Delusions of adequacy?

General Butt Naked wasn’t even in charge of a country…
He features prominently in the Vice Guide to Liberia.
I think Batista in Cuba was still a Colonel while he dictated things there.
“Kinzinger, a critic of his own party and former President Donald Trump, was one of two Republicans whom House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., appointed to the committee examining the Jan. 6 riot at the U.S. Capitol. Rep. Liz Cheney of Wyoming was the other Republican.”
OFFS!
This is the money shot though: “If Andy Biggs has his way, we will be the party where truth-tellers and people that want to stand up for the Constitution, like Liz Cheney and myself…”
Goddamit I need a new cup of coffee.
He said tearily.
What happened with that? Seems like they’ve been at it for months. By the time they get around to a report, they will be reduced to pissing on OMB’s grave.
The goal is not to find out what happened. It’s to impact the midterms. Expect the hearings to really go bananas around this time next year.
At this point the Dems would be better off keeping their mouths shut before they embarrass themselves any further. Absent locking up Joe and Nancy for the duration, I don’t think it’s going to look good for them next year.
I don’t think they will take my advice.
I’ll be following your advice at the end of the month. Field of Screams on the 25th, PA Ren Fair on the 26th.
My husband asked me to join him at the local country club after I’d taken a bath and a nap.
So naturally I had to get up and pick an outfit. I decided to go full-on Rennie with corset and lace up boots and the whole nine yards.
When Hayeksplosives puts on a corset, it tends to get attention, whether good or bad.
I do love a good Rennie and a giant middle finger to whoever thinks we “should” dress a certain way.
This is how you troll, Glibs. Also, how you troll Glibs.
Cheers, dude.
I am gonna take this moment to acknowledge publicly that it was you who helped coordinate the great Exodus from “Reason” when they lost their collective mind.

Sorry, Ted! Obvs wrong reply placement
Sorry to read about your insomnia? I sympathize. For me the worst part is being a dopey slug the next day. It pretty much halves my IQ.

Go fuck yourself, San Diego!
“It’s not as retarded as the Rolling Stone bullshit piece (that I’m so sure has been linked here enough that a metric tons of drugs would fall out of my ass if I reposted it again), but it’s pretty shoddy reporting.”
I think the Rolling Stone bullshit piece is worth repeating.
Here you go: In all it’s glory (including the “update” that basically refutes the entire piece).
And here’s pretty much the only condemnation from a national or otherwise major newspaper I could find. And calling them national or major is a bit of a stretch. But nada from WaPo or the NYT or any of the other rags who would be all over this is it was the story of a “completely healthy” 450 lb teen catching covid.
It’s also worth noting how all these blue checkmarks repeated the story.
Didn’t that rape story have a dozen “updates”?
The national pharmacies are now refusing to fill ivermectin prescriptions.
It’s obviously because Joe Rogan died after taking it.
I heard it on CNN!
So bean counters on the boards of pharmacies are making medical decisions contradiction those of practicing physicians? This will turn out well.
Is there some secret cabal of malthusians determined to have this virus kill as many people as possible? It is starting to look like it.
There’s obvious coordination going on since all of them made the decision within a week of each other.
I assume it’s a mix of pressure from the CDC, NIH, and major drug companies.
Additionally, Merck (which patented ivermectin originally) is now researching an analogue drug to treat COVID. I fully expect they will have a trivially different drug on the market within a year or two at hundreds of dollars per dose. And it will sail through approval.
I’m actually going to cheer if some of those responsible end up swinging from the end of a rope.
I assume it’s a mix of pressure from the CDC, NIH, and major drug companies.
So, fascism. And the left cheers wildly.
Yep. It is who they have always been.
Holy crap, what’s next, a purge of the medical licenses of doctors who have signed ivermectin prescriptions?
The funny part is the quote where they say Joe Rogan has taken Ivermectin and other experimental drugs. Pretty sure there’s a very popular experimental drug floating around lately. In fact, they seem to want to force a huge number of people to take it.
“All kindergarten teachers at Kinder Ranch Elementary, part of Comal ISD, tested positive, according to a report from mycanyonlake.com. The COVID-19 cases were confirmed and news was shared on Open Comal Schools Safely, a Facebook page dedicated to updates on the school district.”
How many is all? Both of them? Do they have symptoms?
The whole community will soon have herd immunity.
Who did they confirm the cases with? That bit is conspicuously absent from the story.
I haven’t heard a word of truth pass the lips of any of the press or ‘experts’ regarding the Fauci virus. I dont know why anyone would expect them to start now.
Lunatics are running the asylum.
OFFS! Cowards. Now go fly to Beijing and let Uncle Xi pat you on the head.
Corporations bowing and scraping to the ChiCom regime is as reliable as a Swiss watch.
What happens when China’s economy finally founders and those corporations have to find new markets for cheap labor and CCP-approved products?
No worries, the Western World will prop them up since our “leaders” have such a massive hard-on for CCP-style governance.
A long lost Cosby kid?
Did he have Quaalude-laden Jello pudding pops?
That entire story is a mind-fuck to the people in the Lowcountry. It’s pretty much gripped the entire area because that family are, or rather were, the closest thing to a heridetary ruling class they have.
One more reason for Robby to not learn how to do this.
His “I was riding my scooter to work” tweet was solid gold.
I’m not completely convinced his whole schtick isn’t some form of performance art designed to get everybody wound up. I hope I’m right and he’s been trolling literally everybody for the past several years.

*pats Shadow 2 on the dust cover*
The only ftf issues I had with my CZ 75 have been due to the bullet shape of my friends reloads.
They have a taper with a shoulder that would catch as it fed and sometimes fail to feed into battery.
The round did have a burr on the casing. Whether that was the cause, or whether that burr was the result of the misfeed, I do not know.
It did happen unfortunately on a particularly speed-oriented stage, so that kind of sucked.

OT – To circle back® to a comment Tres made late in the last post’s comments (I slept in & missed the early morning crew, dag nab it!) a briar is indeed the Boudreaux/Aggie/Polack of SW Ohio. As I’m virtually certain I’ve mentioned here before, a Daytonian is a briar who ran out of gas on the way to Detroit. Those from Hamilton! (punctuation deliberate) had even less gas. Or cars that broke down quicker.
My mother was from Hamilton! but her father was a Hoosier. (Don’t know where her mother was from in the US – her family was only-just-off-the-boat German, her older siblings having been born in the vaterland.) My father was a Piquad, with forebears mainly from Iowa, IIRC.) I know I have some briar somewhere in the woodpile, but it’s at least a couple of generations removed.
Im so briar I have a ‘Drexel Basketball’ t-shirt that I wear ironically.
Im more white trash than a Burger King sack laying behind a Waffle House dumpster.

Someone else who knows the term “lede”!
An aside: has anybody here ever used Tick Pick? I’ve used them plenty for single game tickets in the past. Probably as much as Stubhub. But I bought season tickets for OSU football a little more than a month ago and the tickets are still not electronically delivered. I finally got so exasperated that I emailed them yesterday, since the confirmation note on my account said they’d be delivered by the 5th. I got an email back saying they’d reach out to the seller and have them transferred immediately since they’re covered under their Buyer Trust Guarantee. But all that means is they can either find me a comparable or better pair of seats for the same money or tell me to pound sand and refund my money if the seller decides to fuck me over.
I’ve already booked travel for a couple of the games and will be out money if they decide to fuck me and return my money instead of give me better seats (for which there are few available, and at much higher prices). I hope they get this taken care of today, because I’m getting a bit nervous.
I’ve only ever used tweezers and a just-extinguished match.
Seriously, good luck! I hope you get the tickets you wanted in time. I gather they’re all electronic now? I’ve had to get dragged kicking and screaming into electro-tickets for our local minor league baseball team, but I think I have the drill down now – and without having to use Google Wallet or whatever Google crap Ticketmaster tries to push on me each time.
Never used tick pick, but stay clear of vivid seats. Wife and I got bounced from a college football game at Fed Ex field in DC, sat on hold with them for 45 minutes only to be told that I needed to take it up with the ticket office. Ticket office couldn’t do anything because I wasn’t the named ticket holder. Anyway, long story short, we paid $40 for nosebleeds from a scalper and tried to get to our original seats only to find out they were in the middle of the home team’s band.
The attendant was nice enough to let us sit in the box in front of the band, but it was obstructed view (cheerleaders) and literally right in front of the “bad guys'” band, so we went up to the nosebleeds.
Eventually I got my money back after harassing them enough, but it was a shitshow.
The family friend whose season tickets we used to use (he passed them to his nephew now) for packer games were right behind the visiting bench. It was fun when we instigated Randy Moss, I think that was the ‘Moon’ game.
Thanks to a power outage, I overslept. I gotta get a quick bite and head to the gym.

“We will no longer entrust politics to one man. We will entrust it to the people,” said Doumbouya, draped in a Guinean flag with about a half dozen other soldiers flanked at his side.

If Republicans are pushing lies and conspiracies, Rep. Adam Kinzinger, R-Ill., said Sunday, they shouldn’t take control of the House.

And CNN is the biggest megaphone in the world for said lies.
Both the NI rise and the corporation tax increase confirm the problem that we diagnosed in our big survey of the tax system last year – the tax hikes voters are most willing to put up with tend to be the worst for the economy, and vice versa
As polling shows, raising NI is more popular than income tax because of some mystical association with health (even though they are literally the same thing). And people prefer companies being clobbered to themselves. But taxing employment, business and work is bad for growth.
As our report said, if you wanted to do the most pro-growth tax reform, you’d broaden the base of VAT. But good luck getting that one through…

Middlesbrough defender Marc Bola has been charged by the Football Association for a tweet he sent when he was just 14-years-old, nearly 10 years ago.
Bola has been charged with ‘aggravated’ misconduct for a social media post from 2012, when he was still just a teenager.
The post, from the 23-year-old left back, who has played five times in the Championship so far this season, is said to have included a ‘reference to sexual orientation.’

On the list of US brands newly arrived on Romanian shelves I bought a bottle of frank’s red hot xtra hot. It is not that hot. Honestly you Americans. It is somewhat tastier than tabasco I think.
Could have told you that. Get something actually hot, like Tropical Pepper Scorpion Pepper or Dave’s Insanity.
I prefer to believe Americans are lightweights who can’t handle spice.
Also I had one of those ridiculously hot sauces but I forget what it was called.
Come to New Mexico. We’d be happy to prove you wrong.
I thought you lived in Colorado
I do. Grew up in NM. Right next door.
George RR Martin lives in New Mexico. Can’t trust the place.
Also I assume it is excessively hot. Is there anything to see in New Mexico? Have they any cold beer at least?
Note to Pie: In that part of the country “right next door” can mean anything up to 350Km away.
I did not know the phrase had such a precise definition in good metric units. Thanks. So no more than 350 km
To my childhood home is about 650 km. And there are lots of great things to see in NM (the whole Four Corners for that matter). Come on down!
there is a pandemic going on dontchaknow
There are ski resorts in NM. With snow in the winter. I remember eating chilis there, but they didn’t seem particularly hot to me. I’m sure there’s hot ones there, just not what they served me.
America has electricity and refrigeration so we don’t need extra hot spices. (Except for CA and coming soon to other blue states)
I thought the extra hot spices to hide rotten meat was a myth
If old-days people ate spoiled meat they would have gotten sick from it, spices or not.

Uh, it’s a good everyday hot sauce. I defer to local authorities about Really Hot foodstuffs.
It’s ok, and you are correct in that it is not that hot.
Yeah, Frank’s is “general masses hot”. Like all the “hot” items at national chain restaurants that almost never are.
Yeah that is mild sauce. This is what you want to get (especially recommend the Mayakut). Thank me later.

re: the Cook County tax story. Cook County have been terrible on property taxes for at least my lifetime.

They are, however, very juicy and tender.
Last week I paid $13 for a ring bologna. It was from a specialty meat store, but still ring bologna used to be poor people food, now the ‘cheap’ stuff is like $8 a ring.
Also, I bought some habaneros yesterday. $11 a lb. at the local grocery. I had a small handful, no way it was even a pound, but the cashier was a trainee and I think she fucked something up, cost me $19.

Where do you source your plants/seeds from? Hints on growing (and keeping the damn birds away!)?
If I remember, I will. Tried to grow some once. Got one small pea sized fruit before the plant died.
The other day I bought a loaf of bread and when I got home I saw it was six dollars.
It’s good bread. I figure when you factor in inflation and the declining quality of nearly everything mass-produced, the price was probably about right. But still, dayum.

RIP. He’s on my list to try and get a lot more of his flicks. Some of the best ones were the collabs with Jean Pierre Melville, but he was awesome in a lot of comedies too.
You ever watch CQ?
No, might have heard about it when it came out – I was in college then – but completely dropped off my radar. As far as JPB, I was thinking of this – excellent double feature value. Or at least it was – I guess I have another OOP collectors item now…
CQ is great post examination of the 60s French cinema circuit. And also, Billy Zane!

I’ve got plans. See y’all later.
Kielbasa is cheaper here than ring bologna. It’s nuts. Of course THE Johnsonville in Johnsonville Sausage is in state…
You have a strange obsession with ring bologna
I would think you would encourage such esoterica.
That’s not at all what My Strange Addiction is about.
She cleans out her insides? What’re the downsides?
That reminded me of “Mayor Johnson’s Johnson & Johnson; the gay community will love the double entendre!”
Can’t get enough of kielbasa – the flavor just works for me so much better than italian sausage, etc (less salty). I’ve seen Papa Johns offer it as a pizza topping a couple times, but never see it anywhere else. Drives me nuts.
Just bought another one to use for omelettes/quesadillas when I go on vacation at the end of this week.
Any remotely large town in the UK will have several polskie sklepy at which any number of bizarre sausages and unusual pickled foods can be purchased at a reasonable price. Maybe I could fax you some?
Well I can get US “Polska Kielbasa” at any supermarket and it’s fine for me – just bugs me that it’s not used/available in more dishes when I go out. The flavor is just so preferential for me.
We have a little tiny broken-down old micro grocery in the middle of a rundown forgotton semi-industrial eighborhood that sells their own homemade kielbasa. It is divine. I willnot eat grocery store kielbasa (she says, while eating a Johnsonville Beddar Cheddar).
What they did there…
I tried that once and it put me off the whole experience.
I would like to try some real kielbasa.
Oh look, an up arrow. “Thank you, God!”
I’m not the only one, then? My kingdom for a down arrow!
(I don’t have a kingdom. I barely have wits.)
Some might say you’re a scroller
But you’re not the only one.
I hope someday they’ll fix the website
And we can go about our business as free people. No it doesn’t rhyme or keep meter. Fuck off, slaver.
Nailed it
I couldn’t decide which “rollin'” song to make a “scrollin'” version of so pick your own.
