re: #10 Fat Bastard Vegetarian

Just a little sugar in mine please. No cream.

Good thing. I'm out of cream this morning and don't want to have to go out to the store quite yet.

Ordered a coffee at a dunkin donuts in NJ once, the donut lady put a cup of sugar in my cup of coffee...I made her dump it and try again.

So she dumps that one, pours another and adds a cup of sugar...

Tried two more times to do it without enough sugar to put me in a diabetic coma. She finally agreed to hand me a cup of coffee and sugar packets.

Is that the way that coffee is drank (drunk?) in Jersey, New York? Truly disgusting.

I like my coffee like I like my women.

Hot, creamy and sweet.

Oh, and evil to the core.

No Free Trade coffee for me, please

Good Morning, Lizards!

An Iranian parliamentarian said here on Monday that Washington is the biggest threat to global peace and security.

Secretary-general of Iran's Inter-Parliamentary Group, Mohsen Yahyavi denounced the hegemonic and expansionist policies the US and several other Western powers are exercising in different parts of the world.

He underscored the need for vigilance of the world nations in order to help the international community achieve peace, stability and security.

Yahyavi further called for all-out cooperation among world parliaments in order to counter threats facing democracy.

Referring to Iran's active role at the Inter-Parliamentary Union, he said since the Islamic Republic of Iran enjoys independent policies, it is fully respected by world nations and governments.

The IPU meeting has provided a good opportunity for consultations between the Iranian delegation and representatives of the world parliaments

A Kurdish rebel group based in northern Iraq threatened on Sunday to launch bomb attacks inside Iran if Tehran fails to halt anti-Kurdish policies in the Islamic country. Pejak (Party of Free Life of Kurdistan) warned it has the ability to "carry out bombings against Iranian forces" inside Iran. Ronahi Ahmed, a member of Pejak's political bureau, told AFP from the group's hideout in Qandil mountain in northern Iraq that the rebels were ready for a long fight with Tehran. "We can't stand handcuffed when Iran is chasing us on daily basis. We have the ability to confront Iran inside Tehran. We are not accepting any threat from anybody," she said. "We don't accept the religious suppression that is being carried out by the Iranians. We totally reject it."

What happens in Vegas...

...stays inside a dog cage?

Soroya Malekzadeh wanted to test Iran's claim to being an open democracy, so she submitted her nomination papers to be a candidate for this month's parliamentary elections.

The reply came from the Interior Ministry, formally disqualifying her for failing to meet Iran's strict Islamic requirements. Now, exhausted by state harassment and imprisonment, she has submitted another set of papers, this time to the Canadian embassy in Tehran in hope of obtaining refugee status.

From a small, one-bedroom apartment in central Tehran, Malekzadeh trembles and blinks nervously as she describes her failed bid to run in Iran's elections.

Visibly exhausted from years of run-ins with the authorities, Malekzadeh, 38, says her vocal stance on women's issues in Iran has left her with little option but to leave.

"I have lost almost everything," she says. "My job, my future, everything," the medical nurse adds.

"Women can't do anything in this country. The government tells us how to dress, whether we can see boys and what we can say ... I want to go to Canada where I can have freedom."

The former lecturer and author with a Masters degree in medicine now spends her days reading and pleading her case for asylum.

"I am not a criminal," she says, sipping tea. "It is my choice whether I want to wear a chador."

Radio Farda correspondent Parnaz Azima, who was stripped of her passport and prevented from leaving Iran for eight months last year, has been convicted by an Iranian revolutionary court of "spreading antistate propaganda" and sentenced to one year in prison. Azima, a former librarian and literary translator who holds both Iranian and U.S. citizenship, is appealing the verdict, of which her Tehran lawyer was informed on March 1. If the decision stands, the Prague-based journalist will face a stark choice: return to Iran to serve out the sentence or forfeit the deed to her 95-year-old mother's Tehran home, which was posted in lieu of bail.

CARACAS, Venezuela — Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez said his government is working to create a NATO-like South America defense council along with Brazil and other countries.

During a speech Sunday night, Chavez said the council would unite the region's countries to "design our own defense policies." He said Venezuelan officials planned to discuss it with Brazilian Defense Minister Nelson Jobim when he visits Caracas on Monday.

The leftist leader said he brought up a similar proposal at the start of his presidency in 1999 but that it met with opposition in the region.

"I once said that if NATO exists — the North Atlantic Treaty Organization — why couldn't SATO exist? The South Atlantic Treaty Organization," Chavez said. "We've placed it on the table for Latin America once again."

Chavez was addressing a crowd of supporters outside the presidential palace on the sixth anniversary of his return to power after a short-lived 2002 coup.

Chavez, a close ally of Cuba's Fidel Castro, reiterated his accusation that Washington was behind the 2002 coup and shouted: "Down with imperialism!"

Airplane will always be a special memory to me. About 20 of my high school friends and I went to see it when it opened--the same day as the viewing for one of our friends who had died of cancer at 16. We were such a mess, but someone said, "You know, he would have told us to see Airplane." So we went and celebrated the joy of his friendship and humor.

re: #70 goddessoftheclassroom

I saw it about the same time -- it was the beginning of my senior year of high school, and my uncle had brought me out to stay with him in the Bay area for a couple of weeks. He did this primarily to demonstrate that there was a much wider world than the Illinois-Wisconsin borderlands. I knew that, but I didn't quite have an escape plan. Presenting me with a set of plans was his primary goal, I suspect. I spent much of my time with one of my favorite cousins as well as with various friends of his who gave me exceptionally good advice, albeit indirectly. All of them were classic "neo-cons," though no one knew that term yet -- former Berkeleyites who'd gotten jobs and lives and become Reaganites. Anyway, he, my cousin, and I went to see that one afternoon. I don't remember ever laughing so hard at a movie. All in all, it was a great summer, a sort of turning point.

PHOENIX -- The mayor wants the FBI to investigate whether the local county sheriff has violated any civil rights laws with his recent high-profile crackdowns on illegal immigrants.

The "saturation patrols" have drawn protests from civil rights and immigrant-rights advocates, but they have drawn support from backers of Maricopa County Sheriff Joe Arpaio and from people who believe the government hasn't done enough against illegal immigration.

In an April 4 letter to U.S. Attorney General Michael Mukasey, Mayor Phil Gordon asked the agency and the Justice Department's civil rights division to examine what he called discriminatory harassment and improper stops, searches, and arrests by sheriff's deputies in Maricopa County, which encompasses the metropolitan area.

"Over the past few weeks, Sheriff Arpaio's actions have infringed on the civil rights of our residents," Gordon wrote. "They have put our residents' well-being, and the well-being of law enforcement officers, at risk."

Kennedy, Lugar, Biden: Bring More Iraqis To America

Maybe the sane folks can find an island somewhere and start over..

.Senators Kennedy, Lugar, Biden and others will introduce a bipartisan bill providing additional authority for continued processing of special immigrant visas for qualified Iraqi and Afghan translators who worked for the U.S. military and U.S. government. The National Defense Authorization Act for FY 2008, enacted January 28, 2008, created 5,000 new special immigrant visas for Iraqis whose lives are at risk because of their service to the U.S. government. These special visas are not available until FY 2009. Senator Kennedy’s bipartisan bill would make the visas available immediately to qualified Iraqis who worked for the U.S. military and the U.S. government. Iraqi translators and interpreters who placed their lives, families, and livelihoods at risk to serve on the side of America are eligible for these special visas. Others cosponsors include Senators Leahy, Specter, Levin, Cornyn, Obama, Lieberman, McCain, Durbin, Sununu, Cardin, Smith, Hagel and Coleman

Good Morning Lizards.

Hey Babba, did not get to do "April come She
Will" Friday night, unfortunately. There were 4 groups at this gig (fundraiser) and we were the second to go on. The first group showed up 10 minutes late, spent 15 minutes tuning up on stage, then hogged the stage (each groups was supposed to do 4 tunes an get off for te next group) doinga bout 6 or 7 tunes.

Long story short, by the time they got off the stage the other groups were cut to 2 tunes each. And the first group did not even have the class to stick around, they just packed up and left.

Congrats to Trevor Immelman on winning the Masters. I though he would fold but he held on. Woods clearly was not playing well (although Woods did his usual "I hit the ball great" comments after the round). Brandt Snedecker became Snedecker again (something like 8 bogeys in the last 14 holes).

Funniest moment of the whole day was when Woods came off the 18th and Immelman was playing down 17 with a 3 hole lead. The interviewer asked Woods what he was going to do now (trying to play up the suspense for the TV audience). Woods said he was going to go get something to eat. The announcer mentione dtha Immelman was still out there and Woods said "Yes, with a 3 stroke lead and 2 holes to play", pretty much laughed in the guys face and walked away.

The biggest downer for me during the whole broadcast was seeing that Immeleman is one of those guys who goes into a trance before each shot behind the ball trying to visualize the shot ahead of time. He had a 2 foot putt one time and must have kneeled back there for 5 minutes reading the dang thing.

Now, every 30 handicapper hacking the ball sideways around their local muni on the weekends is going to think that going into a trance before each shot is the pathway to a scratch handicapp. Expect a lot of 5 and 6 hour rounds on your local course this summer, standing behind some hacker going into a trance over his 4th putt in a par 4 to save an 8.

Hamas Terrorists Join Jimmah Fan Club

JERUSALEM - Former President Jimmy Carter is a "noble person" whose planned meeting with Hamas would help the terror organization "engage with the world community," Ahmed Yousuf, Hamas' top political adviser in the Gaza Strip, told WND today in an exclusive interview.

"Carter can achieve something no one else can. He is open-minded and has a very noble cause to come and meet with all people," said Yousuf, the chief political adviser to Ismail Haniyeh, the deposed prime minister of the Hamas-led Palestinian government.

Yousuf, who is usually the Hamas figure responsible for coordinating meetings with foreign officials, said Carter "should get credit because he is the one who really understands the (Israeli-Palestinian) conflict and knows what is needed to achieve peace."

He indicated Carter's visit could help end Hamas' international isolation.

Yep, and we had to stand there listening to them argue between tunes as to what to play next. They showed up without a play list. Talk about being unprofessional. Show up late, tune up for 15 minutes in front of the audience, and then have no play list.

At least the sound system was good and you could hear yourself play in stage. Usually you can't hear a thing.

I remember a year ago playing at a dinner function somewhere and the sound system was awful. I was in the middle of playing a solo and a waiteress walked up and slammed a big tray of salads on the stage right in front of me that she was serving to the front table. Right in front of me while I was playing ( I believe Scarborough Fair).

Did not miss a note, though :)

COLUMBUS, Ohio — Forget about passing notes in study hall; some teens are now using their cell phones to flirt and send nude pictures of themselves.

The instant text, picture and video messages have become part of some teens' courtship behavior, police and school officials said. The messages often spread quickly and sometimes find their way to public Web sites.

"I've seen everything from your basic striptease to sexual acts being performed," said Reynoldsburg police Detective Brian Marvin, a member of the FBI Cyber Crime Task Force of Central Ohio. "You name it, they will do it at their home under this perceived anonymity."

Campus employees found two threatening messages in Regina Hall, a freshman dormitory. The second one caused university officials to take extreme precautions because it warned "Be prepared to die on 4/14."

St. Xavier University President Dwyer said, "This is a real enough threat we do not have these types of threats and when it was so specific to name a date, law enforcement said this is different from what we've seen at other college campuses and certainly at St. Xavier."

The president has not decided when to re-open the college. She said students and staff will be notified by e-mail, text messages and telephone.

Meantime, another university in Michigan is also closed Monday due to threats of violence specific to Monday's date.

An illicit copy of the steamy, still-FBI-classified reel - 15 minutes of 16mm film footage in which the original blond bombshell performs oral sex on an unidentified man - was just sold to a New York businessman for $1.5 million, said Keya Morgan, the well-known memorabilia collector who discovered the film and brokered its purchase.

The footage appears to have been shot in the 1950s. When it came to light in the mid-'60s, then-FBI Director J. Edgar Hoover had his agents spend two weeks futilely trying to prove that Monroe's sex partner was either John F. Kennedy or Robert F. Kennedy, according to declassified agency documents and interviews, Morgan said.

The silent black-and-white flick shows Monroe on her knees in front of a man whose face is just out of the shot.

Why not show everyone how much you care, by actually paying for someone who cannot afford health insurance? Why force all those who produce?

Because they don't really care about who has health care, they just want power over our lives!

The body of a British teenager raped and murdered on a beach in India was returned to the UK without some internal organs.

Scarlett Keeling's body is undergoing a third post mortem which has revealed her uterus, kidneys and stomach are missing.

Her mother Fiona MacKeown said that she did not give permission for the organs to be removed and is planning to return to India within the next two weeks to find out what has happened.

Scarlett was found on Anjuna beach, Goa on February 19. Police initially said the 15-year-old died from accidental drowning but after pressure from Mrs MacKeown a second autopsy was carried out which revealed she was raped and killed.

Mrs MacKeown's lawyer, Vikram Varma, said there is no reason for the organs to be taken and they should not be removed without written permission.

"I have spoken to Fiona who has told me the uterus, kidneys and stomach are missing," he said

Casey and Roemer have chosen to ignore Obama's legislative record, and are promoting the Democratic presidential candidate to their antiabortion allies as someone who could achieve a new consensus on the issue. "He has the unique skills to try to lower the temperature and foster a sense of common ground, and try to figure out ways that people can agree," Casey said, although the freshman senator added, "On this issue, it's particularly hard."

In other words, Obama has magic powers.

A senior citizen drove his brand new Porsche convertible out of the dealership.

Taking off down the road, he floored it to 80 mph, enjoying the wind blowing through what little hair he had left.

Amazing", he thought as he flew down I-75, pushing the pedal even more.

Looking in his rear view mirror, he saw the highway patrol behind him, blue lights flashing and siren blaring. He floored it to 100 mph, then 110, then 120.

Suddenly he thought, "What am I doing? I'm too old for this ", and Pulled over to await the Trooper's arrival.

Pulling in behind him, the trooper walked up to the Porsche, looked at his watch and said,

"Sir, my shift ends in 30 minutes. Today is Friday. If you can give me a reason for speeding that I've never heard before, I'll let you go."

The old gentleman paused and then said, "Years ago, my wife ran off with a State Trooper. I thought you were bringing her back."

"Have a good day, Sir", replied the Trooper.

Hello there sunshine! We need a law making it mandatory for anyone buying an expensive vehicle to take a driving test.

This woman got into her brand new ML 350 Mercedes and was revving her engine trying to back up. Then she throws her hands in the air in disgust. Her daughter told her to try the letter R instead of N I think.

FoxNews had a brief interview with Breitbart this morning (don't know if the story is on his website or not, as I don't have the link to it) in which he claimed that Oprah Winfrey's popularity was 74% when she endorsed Obama and was 55% before the Jeremiah Wright (a/k/a the "Racist Rev") story and the bitter, gun toting bible thumping Typical White Guy stories came out. When one of the talking heads on Fox asked him what he thought that meant for Barack Hussein Obama, Brietbart said "well the Rev. Wright story will stay buried, after all he was her minister too but she may do a 180 on Obama, because Oprah's all about Oprah."
Be really interesting if she said anything negative about the annointed one woulnd't it?

(IsraelNN.com) While America was leading the effort to impose sanctions on a defiant Iran intent on continuing its uranium enrichment nuclear development program, the US and Iran was meeting unofficially to maintain dialogue between the two nations.

According to a report published in the British newspaper, The Independent, a group of former diplomats, foreign policy experts and academics from both countries has been meeting on a regular basis over the past five years. None of the meetings, which have taken place in various places around the world, were ever held in the US or Iran.

The back channel group was the brainchild of the United Nations Association of the United States and facilitated by a think-tank called the Stockholm International Peace Research Institute.

One of my students said she was taught, when leaving a number, to say it at the beginning and end of the message, such that if the receiver needed to hear it again, it was at the beginning of the message and the person didn't have to listen to the whole thing just to get the number. Good idea.

Carter calls the shelling of Sderot a crime, but the real crime is Carter's stupidity.

The real crime is meeting with the perpetrators of that crime.

The real crime is meeting with a groups that openly works with al Qaeda and is ideologically indistriguishable from it.

The real crime is meeting with a group that was created by the same people that murdered Anwar Sadat.

The real crime is meeting with the proxies of the same people who destroyed an American Presidency; it is doubly stupid because this is the very man whose Presidency was destroyed.

Mr. Carter, go home to Georgia and stop causing people to die from your "ideas" and "good" intentions. Hamas is at war with Israel and will never peacefully submit to her existence. Hamas is at war with the US and openly calls for America's destruction. It follows that Hamas must be destroyed and peace cannot happen until it is. Carter, in his endless "search" for peace, needlessly fosters and extends the war with his efforts. Hamas and Iran must chortle with glee at the prospect of a former American President prostrating himself at their bloody feet.

Having read enough of Carter and his words, the only logical explanation for what he does stems from something my Grandmother once told me: Carter's father was a Klansman.

Mark Steyn shares my rantings, but says it much better:

When school officials call 911 because of a “misunderstanding” with a six-year-old, the fault is theirs: He’s a kid; and they’re school officials who are supposedly trained and handsomely remunerated to know how to deal with children. Incidentally, the phrase “school officials” isn’t quite as rare as “37-year-old teacher’s aide accuses four-year old of sexual harassment” but it would still ring foreign to your average old-school schoolmarm in a one-room schoolhouse. Back then schools had schoolchildren and schoolteachers and that was pretty much it. But now grade schools are full of “officials,” just like the Department of Homeland Security.

So who does get a little breast and butt action in American schools these days? Obviously not your four-year-old gropers and six-year-old predators: The system’s doing an admirable job of cracking down on those perverts. No, if you want to get up close and personal with body parts you’ve got to be a “school official.” The U.S. Court of Appeals for the 9th Circuit recently heard oral arguments in the case of Savana Redding. Back in 2003, Savana was an Eighth Grader at Safford Middle School in Safford, Arizona, when the vice principal, Kerry Wilson, “acting on a tip,” discovered a fellow student to have a handful of ibuprofen tablets in her pocket. The other girl said she got them from Savana, who denied it. She had no tablets in her own pockets or in her backpack. Vice Principal Wilson, whose mind works in interesting ways, then decided that Savana might be hiding the ibuprofen in her cleavage or her crotch. So, without contacting the girl’s parents, he ordered a school official to strip-search Savana. She was obliged to expose her breasts and “her pelvic area.” If Vice Principal Wilson were a four-year old pre-schooler who’d been involved in a stunt like that, he’d now be a registered sex offender for life. But fortunately he’s a “school official” so if he decides to apply search techniques associated with international narcotics traffic he pretty much has a free hand to do so. After all, ibuprofen is serious stuff. As Reason’s Jacob Sullum put it, “It’s a good thing the school took swift action, before anyone got unauthorized relief from menstrual cramps.”
