BARELY HANGIN' ON

It is 5:54 a.m. 68.6 degrees F. Earthdog is asleep downstairs with Junior.

When I was in college, we watched Star Trek religiously (I've subsequently taped them all)--Startrek, Capt. Kirk. I watched, later, Star Trek, was it Next Generation? only sporadically--Jean Luke Pickard and Data? Then Star Trek, Voyager, with Capt. Janeway,not so much. Then a few of the space station one. The one with Scott Bakula, I never really saw at all--no longer--it is on the SciFi channel and has a Vulcan Babe played by Jolene somebody or other. (oh, BLALOCK) Now I'm hooked...

Ann Coulter:

“Fox News ought to buy a copy of [last week’s] Democrat debate on CNN to play over and over during the general election campaign. For now, the Democratic candidates need to appeal only to their nut-base. So... the candidates casually spouted liberal conspiracy theories that would frighten normal Americans, but are guaranteed to warm the hearts of losers blogging from their mother’s basements. ... Hillary raised the Bush-stole-the-2000-election fairy tale, saying: ‘I think it is a problem that Bush was elected in 2000. I actually thought somebody else was elected in that election, but...’ (Applause.) On Nov. 12, 2001, The New York Times ran a front page article that began: ‘A comprehensive review of the uncounted Florida ballots from last year’s presidential election reveals that George W. Bush would have won even if the United States Supreme Court had allowed the statewide manual recount of the votes that the Florida Supreme Court had ordered to go forward.’ Another Times article that day by Richard L. Berke said that the ‘comprehensive review of the uncounted Florida ballots solidifies George W. Bush’s legal claim on the White House because it concludes that he would have won under the ground rules prescribed by the Democrats.’ On Nov. 18, 2001, notorious pro-abortion zealot Linda Greenhouse wrote in the Times that the media consortium’s count of all the disputed Florida ballots—in which the Times participated—concluded ‘that George W. Bush would have won the 2000 presidential election even had the court not cut the final recount short.’ If three prominent articles in the Treason Times isn’t enough to convince Hillary that Bush won the 2000 election, forget the White House: ABC ought to hire her to replace Rosie O’Donnell on ‘The View.’ I know that’s a big seat to fill, but maybe she can finally convince Elizabeth Hasselbeck that 9/11 was an inside job.” —Ann Coulter

Think you know everything? "Stewardesses" is the longest word typed with only the left hand and "lollipop" with your right. (Bet you tried this out, didn't you?) No word in the English language rhymes with month, orange, silver, or purple. "Dreamt" is the only English word that ends in the letters "MT". (Are you doubting this?) Our eyes are always the same size from birth, but our nose and ears never stop growing. The sentence: "The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog" uses every letter of the alphabet. (Now, you KNOW you're going to try this out for accuracy, right?) The words 'racecar,' 'kayak' and 'level' are the same whether they are read left to right or right to left (palindromes). (Yep, I knew you were going to "do" this one.) There are only four words in the English language which end in "dous": tremendous, horrendous, stupendous, and hazardous. (You're not doubting this, are you?) There are two words in the English language that have all five vowels in order: "abstemious" and "facetious." (Yes, admit it, you are going to say . A e I o u) TYPEWRITER is the longest word that can be made using the letters only on one row of the keyboard. (All you typists are going to test this out) A cat has 32 muscles in each ear. A goldfish has a memory span of three seconds. (Some days that's about what my memory span is) A "jiffy" is an actual unit of time for 1/100th of a second. A shark is the only fish that can blink with both eyes. A snail can sleep for three years. (I know some people that could do this too.) Almonds are a member of the peach family. An ostrich's eye is bigger than its brain. Babies are born without kneecaps They don't appear until the child reaches 2 to 6 years of age. February 1865 is the only month in recorded history not to have a full moon. In the last 4,000 years, no new animals have been domesticated. If the population of China walked past you, 8 abreast, the line would never end because of the rate of reproduction. Leonardo Da Vinci invented the scissors. Peanuts are one of the ingredients of dynamite! Rubber bands last longer when refrigerated. The average person's left hand does 56% of the typing. The cruise liner, QE2, moves only six inches for each gallon of diesel that it burns. The microwave was invented after a researcher walked by a radar tube and a chocolate bar melted in his pocket. (Good thing he did that) The winter of 1932 was so cold that Niagara Falls froze completely solid. There are more chickens than people in the world. Winston Churchill was born in a ladies' room during a dance. Women blink nearly twice as much as men. Now you know everything!

MORE TREACHEROUS LIES FROM SEN. JOHN KERRY, D-HANOI

USED TO BE AMERICA'S MOST NOTORIOUS TRAITOR...

It is 68.6 degrees out at 6:13 a.m. and Patrick got up and went downstairs to sleep with Junior.

FROM THE PATRIOT POST:

The BIG lie: John Kerry on fleeing Iraq

Our old friend John Kerry made it back into the news this week with his usual verbal antics, stemming from his “seared” memory. Arguing for American defeat in Iraq, Kerry said, “We heard that argument over and over again about the bloodbath that would engulf the entire Southeast Asia, and it didn’t happen” (emphasis added). He claimed also that American presence in Iraq only makes the situation worse every day.

In the interest of equal time and fairness, here’s a summary of what The Wall Street Journal’s James Taranto dug up regarding what happened after America abandoned Vietnam: According to the Orange County Register in 2001, some one million people were imprisoned without formal charges or trials; 165,000 people died in the Socialist Republic of Vietnam’s “re-education” camps; Thousands were abused or tortured; and Prisoners were incarcerated for as long as 17 years, according to the U.S. Department of State, with most terms ranging from three to ten years.

In Laos, tens of thousands were sent to “re-education” camps and an unknown number died. In Cambodia, according to the Christian Science Monitor, “more than 1.7 million of Cambodia’s 8 million inhabitants perished from disease, starvation, overwork, or outright execution in a notorious genocide” perpetrated by the infamous Khmer Rouge. John Kerry claims to have supplied weapons to the Khmer Rouge during his four-month tour in Vietnam.

Next time he’s asked if he told the truth about post-war Vietnam, Kerry should reply, “It didn’t happen. GOING TO A GEOCACHING EVENT TODAY WITH EARTHDOG. TTYL

BRAINIACS

FROM MARK VIA THE INBOX

Mensa Convention

In case you don’t know Mensa is an organization whose members have an IQ of 140 or higher.

A few years ago, there was a Mensa convention in San Francisco, and several members lunched at a local cafe.

While dining, they discovered that their salt shaker contained pepper and their pepper shaker was full of salt.

How could they swap the contents of the bottles without spilling, and using only the implements at hand? Clearly this was a job for Mensa! The group debated and presented ideas, and finally came up with a brilliant solution involving a napkin, a straw, and an empty saucer. They called the waitress over to dazzle her with their solution.

"Ma'am," they said, "we couldn't help but notice that the pepper shaker contains salt and the salt shaker..."

"Oh," the waitress interrupted. "Sorry about that." She unscrewed the caps of both bottles and switched them.

Some days you're the bug; some days you're the windshield.

OH WELL!

SOME DARE CALL IT TREASON

Is there a prettier girl on the planet than Catherine Z. Jones? I doubt it. Is there a stupider girl on the planet than Linday Lohen? I doubt it. Is there a more treacherous girl on the planet than Nanci Pelosistan? Most assuredly not.

Just to let you know we at the Trading Post are not letting infamous traitors like Arnold, Fonda and Kerry off the hook, here's a refresher on the Petition to bring Kerry, whose treason continues every day, to justice:

Honorable Alberto R. Gonzales
U.S. Department of Justice
950 Pennsylvania Avenue, NW
Washington, DC 20530-0001

Honorable Richard B. Cheney
The White House

18 October 2004

Hon. Alberto R. Gonzales, Attorney General of these United States:
Hon. Richard B. Cheney, President of the United States Senate:
Hon. William H. Frist, M.D., Majority Leader of the United States Senate:
Hon. J. Dennis Hastert, Speaker, United States House of Representatives:

On behalf of more than 180,000 Americans who have attached their names, including my own, hereto ("Petitioners"), I respectfully submit this request for investigation and indictment of Senator John Forbes Kerry (D. Mass.) for acts of treason in connection with the proffering of counsel and assistance to enemy agents in time of warfare ("Petition for Investigation and Indictment").

Specifically, Petitioners request the United States Department of Justice open or renew an investigation of Mr. Kerry's actions of "giving aid and comfort" to Communist North Vietnam, particularly in regard to his meetings with enemy agents in Paris on multiple occasions between 1970 and 1972 while still an officer in the United States Navy. Such counsel and assistance to enemy agents in time of warfare is in direct violation of UCMJ (Article 104 part 904), U.S. Code (18 USC Sec. 2381 and 18 USC Sec. 953) and other applicable laws and acts of Congress.

Some of Sen. Kerry's anti-American activities and protests in association with Vietnam Veterans Against the War and other subversive groups may have been subject to pardon by President James E. Carter's Executive Order 4483 of 21 January 1977, which provided general amnesty for draft evaders and other war protesters. However, it is the considered opinion of legal scholars that acts of treason in connection with providing aid and comfort to the enemy in time of warfare are not covered by EO 4483.

Though Sen. Kerry claims to have received an Honorable Discharge at the conclusion of his military service, he refuses to sign a Standard Form 180 authorizing the release of his complete military records in an effort, we believe, to conceal his separation from the military by other than honorable discharge. This assertion is supported by the fact that Sen. Kerry's discharge was subject to review after EO 4483 by a board of officers acting under Title 10, U.S. Code Section 1162 and 1163 in reference to involuntary separation from the service. Those records are critical to the disposition of this Petition for Investigation and Indictment.

Additionally, in connection with an other than honorable discharge, the Department of Defense may have revoked all pay benefits, allowances, medals and honors. Here Petitioners note that upon becoming a U.S. senator in 1985, Mr. Kerry requested that all his medals be reissued, and, more recently, that he received a revised DD-214 listing an Honorable Discharge.

Why are we requesting that John Kerry be investigated and indicted now?

In October 2003, Mr. Kerry chose to make his Vietnam War record the centerpiece of his campaign for the presidency; this has been especially true since his Democrat Presidential primary victory in March 2004. Outraged by this and in response, the more than 180,000 signatories of the above-referenced Petition for Investigation and Indictment chose to make Mr. Kerry's war record the centerpiece of their campaign to disqualify him from public office.

In doing so, Petitioners cite the Constitution's Fourteenth Amendment, Section 3. The pertinent language states: "No person shall be a Senator or Representative in Congress, or elector of President and Vice-President ... having previously taken an oath ... to support the Constitution of the United States, [who has] engaged in insurrection or rebellion against the same, or given aid or comfort to the enemies thereof."

Of note, there is no statute of limitations on treason.

It is not Petitioners' intent that this Petition for Investigation and Indictment be acted on prior to the 2 November election as this would be disruptive to the election process. Such action by the Justice Department would only be viewed as "political" in nature. It is, however, Petitioners' intent to ensure that Sen. Kerry's actions are subject to investigative review in order to conclusively determine whether he is legally qualified to hold any future office in accordance with the Constitution's Fourteenth Amendment.

Regardless of the outcome of Sen. Kerry's campaign for president, be it known that Petitioners remain committed to holding Sen. Kerry accountable for his actions.

Respectfully submitted,

Mark Alexander
Executive Editor and Publisher,
The Federalist Patriot

GEODE HUNTERS AND THE LITTLE DOG TUE SIGNIN LOG AT OUT "BRIDGE OUT" CACHE IN FORT WAYNE

It is 5:47 a.m. and 67.0 degrees out. Got some rain yesterday, haven't checked on how much. Patrick got up with me and promptly went downstairs to start his second sleep shift with Junior.

Lindsey Lohan got caught driving recklessly, well over the alcohol limit , and with stolen coke in her pocket. She must have stolen it, for she claims it's not hers... What an idiot!! No one will insure her to do a movie now. Bet she's dropped from the one she's about to do. These people who've got it made, and they throw it all away. Join Vick, baby! There must be a thousand chicks in SoCa alone, just as pretty, just as talented, and with tits just as big -- so let's give one of them a chance, and trash-can Lindsey.

We hear Kat McPhee, our erstwhile Idol choice, is about to do a film... Watch out Hollyweird!!

From Mark via email:

Two farmers, Jim and Bob, are sitting at their favorite bar, drinking beer.

Jim turns to Bob and says, "You know, I'm tired of going

through life without an education. Tomorrow I think I'll go to the

Community College and sign up for some classes."

Bob thinks it's a good idea, and the two leave. The next

day, Jim goes down to the college and meets dean of admissions, who

signs him up for the four basic classes: Math, English, History, and

Logic.

"Logic?" Jim says. "What's that?"

The dean says, "I'll give you an example. Do you own a

weed eater?"

"Yeah."

"Then logically speaking, because you own a weed eater,

I think that you would have a yard."

"That's true, I do have a yard."

"I'm not done," the dean says. "Because you have a yard,

I think logically that you would have a house."

"Yes, I do have a house."

"And because you have a house, I think that you might

logically have a family."

"Yes, I have a family."

"I'm not done yet. Because you have a family, then

logically you must have a wife. And because you have a wife, then logic

tells me you're likely a heterosexual."

"I am a heterosexual. That's amazing, you were able to

find out all of that because I have a weed eater."

Excited to take the class now, Jim shakes the Dean's

hand and leaves to go meet Bob at the bar. He tells Bob about his

classes, how he is signed up for Math, English, History, and Logic.

"Logic?" Bob says, "What's that?"

Jim says, "I'll give you an example. Do you have a weed

eater?"

"No."

"Then you're a queer."

That's all, Folks!

FROM THE PATRIOT POST:

NAACP to the rescue... again

Even though they just buried the “n word,” the NAACP’s job is never done. Charlotte, North Carolina, Mayor Pat McCrory recently declared, “Too many of our youth, primarily African-American, are imitating and or participating in a gangster type of dress, attitude, behavior and action.” Most of us poor saps probably thought McCrory was just making a factual statement about the condition of his city. Thankfully, we have the NAACP to expose our prejudices and bring about reconciliation—and maybe even reparations. The local NAACP chapter has demanded that Mayor McCrory apologize for his vicious insult, facts notwithstanding. McCrory, of course, refuses to apologize and added that he’s “a little disappointed because I think the NAACP... is missing out on an excellent opportunity to tell our young kids that we shouldn’t be imitating the dress, the behavior, the action [of gang members]—this is a uniform they wear.” No, no, no. The NAACP is focused only on preventing serious problems, like using the word “nappy.”

If the gangsters can use it, so can I. How's this: Michael Vick is a Dumb Nigger.

Nuff said.

Read This!!! This woman should run for president Written by a housewife from New Jersey and sounds like it! This is one ticked off lady. "Are we fighting a war on terror or aren't we? Was it or was it not started by Islamic people who brought it to our shores on September 11, 2001? Were people from all over the world, mostly Americans, not brutally murdered that day, in downtown Manhattan , across the Potomac from our nation's capitol and in a field in Pennsylvania ? Did nearly three thousand men, women and children die a horrible, burning or crushing death that day, or didn't they? What have we done to avenge this? Nothing! And I'm supposed to care that a copy of the Koran was "desecrated" when an overworked American soldier kicked it or got it wet?...Well, I don't. I don't care at all. I'll start caring when Osama bin Laden turns himself in and repents for incinerating all those innocent people on 9/11. I'll care about the Koran when the fanatics in the Middle East start caring about the Holy Bible, the mere possession of which is a crime in Saudi Arabia I'll care when these thugs tell the world they are sorry for hacking off Nick Berg's head while Berg screamed through his gurgling slashed throat. I'll care when the cowardly so-called "insurgents" in Iraq come out and fight like men instead of disrespecting their own religion by hiding in mosques. I'll care when the mindless zealots who blow themselves up in search of nirvana care about the innocent children within range of their suicide bombs. I'll care when the American media stops pretending that their First Amendment liberties are somehow derived from international law instead of the United States Constitution's Bill of Rights. In the meantime, when I hear a story about a brave marine roughing up an Iraqi terrorist to obtain information, know this: I don't care. When I see a fuzzy photo of a pile of naked Iraqi prisoners who have been humiliated in what amounts to a college-hazing incident, rest assured: I don't care. When I see a wounded terrorist get shot in the head when he is told not to move because he might be booby-trapped, you can take it to the bank: I don't care. When I hear that a prisoner, who was issued a Koran and a prayer mat, and fed "special" food that is paid for by my tax dollars, is complaining that his holy book is being "mishandled," you can absolutely believe in your heart of hearts: I don't care. And oh, by the way, I've noticed that sometimes it's spelled "Koran" and other times "Quran." Well, Jimmy Crack Corn and-you guessed it-I don't care !! If you agree with this viewpoint, pass this on to all your E-mail friends. Sooner or later, it'll get to the people responsible for this ridiculous behavior! If you don't agree, then by all means hit the delete button. Should you choose the latter, then please don't complain when more atrocities committed by radical Muslims happen here in our great Country! And may I add: "Some people spend an entire lifetime wondering if they made a difference in the world. But, the Marines don't have that problem." -- Ronald Reagan I have another quote that I would like to add AND.......I hope you forward all this. "If we ever forget that we're One Nation Under God, then we will be a nation gone under." Also by.. Ronald Reagan One last thought for the day: In case we find ourselves starting to believe all the Anti-American sentiment and negativity, we should remember England 's Prime Minister Tony Blair's words during a recent interview. When asked by one of his Parliament members why he believes so much in America , he said: "A simple way to take measure of a country is to look at how many want in... And how many want out." Only two defining forces have ever offered to die for you: 1. Jesus Christ 2. The American G. I. One died for your soul, the other for your freedom.
