re: #20 Cognito

We don't keep up with hockey, it's just not really big down here. But tonight my 4 year old wanted the TV on while he fell asleep (we're visiting grandparents, tv in the room we're sleeping in), so I asked him what he wanted to watch. I scrolled past at least three different sports, including baseball, he was not interested in the least.

Got to the hockey game and he yelled "STOP!", jumped up, grabbed a golf club (hey we're at granddad's!) and started SWINGING IT around here in the bedroom. Almost took the TV out. LOL He'd never ever seen a hockey game in his life- but went from 0-60 in 2 seconds flat when it came on. I do believe I've found a sport for him to try out. ;)

Very good article on Obama by Stanley Kurtz at NRO, definitely worth a look.

A lot of it is inspired by a glassy-eyed backgrounded at the Chicago Reader from 1995.
What Makes Obama Run?

And Bill Clinton has responded to the teapot tempest smear piece at lightweight Vanity Fair.
Bill Clinton Calls Vanity Fair Writer "Scumbag," "Sleazy"

It's my personal opinion that this was a Pelosi-inspired lovetap serving warning that the Obamite dem leadership won't put up with any DNC credentials fight nonsense when they expect to put the railroad job locomotive in the wheelhouse long before then.

If I was Hillary, I'd just ignore it. Her power base is as strong as Pelosi's, and she knows it.

Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad predicted on Monday that Muslims would uproot "satanic powers" and repeated his controversial belief that Israel will soon disappear, the Mehr news agency reported.
"I must announce that the Zionist regime (Israel), with a 60-year record of genocide, plunder, invasion and betrayal is about to die and will soon be erased from the geographical scene," he said.
"Today, the time for the fall of the satanic power of the United States has come and the countdown to the annihilation of the emperor of power and wealth has started."

I gasped, then went limp and un-aggressive, dropping all muscle tension... and she opened her bite, let go of the web between thumb and forefinger...

Since we're talking about Monkey Business, how's this grab y'all:

Time Warner Cable tries metering Internet use
NEW YORK - You're used to paying extra if you use up your cell phone minutes, but will you be willing to pay extra if your home computer goes over its Internet allowance?

Time Warner Cable Inc. customers - and, later, others - may have to, if the company's test of metered Internet access is successful.

On Thursday, new Time Warner Cable Internet subscribers in Beaumont, Texas, will have monthly allowances for the amount of data they upload and download. Those who go over will be charged $1 per gigabyte, a Time Warner Cable executive told the Associated Press.

Metered billing is an attempt to deal fairly with Internet usage, which is very uneven among Time Warner Cable's subscribers, said Kevin Leddy, Time Warner Cable's executive vice president of advanced technology.

Just 5 percent of the company's subscribers take up half of the capacity on local cable lines, Leddy said. Other cable Internet service providers report a similar distribution.

"We think it's the fairest way to finance the needed investment in the infrastructure," Leddy said.

Metered usage is common overseas, and other U.S. cable providers are looking at ways to rein in heavy users. Most have download caps, but some keep the caps secret so as not to alarm the majority of users, who come nowhere close to the limits. Time Warner Cable appears to be the first major ISP to charge for going over the limit: Other companies warn, then suspend, those who go over.
Time Warner Cable had said in January that it was planning to conduct the trial in Beaumont, but did not give any details. On Monday, Leddy said its tiers will range from $29.95 a month for relatively slow service at 768 kilobits per second and a 5-gigabyte monthly cap to $54.90 per month for fast downloads at 15 megabits per second and a 40-gigabyte cap. Those prices cover the Internet portion of subscription bundles that include video or phone services. Both downloads and uploads will count toward the monthly cap.
Those who mainly do Web surfing or e-mail have little reason to pay attention to the traffic caps: a gigabyte is about 3,000 Web pages, or 15,000 e-mails without attachments. But those who download movies or TV shows will want to pay attention. A standard-definition movie can take up 1.5 gigabytes, and a high-definition movie can be 6 to 8 gigabytes.

Well, I'm not a techie . . . here's my .02:

You could click each e-mail and choose "junk" to add them to your blocked sender's list, but they are probably using different e-mail addresses all the time so that won't slow things down.

Being a non-techie - I would (and have done this) change my e-mail address, and also set up a 2nd e-mail address. One is for your "real" mail, the mail you get from people you know, etc. Use the 2nd address whenever you need to fill in a form at a website where you are ordering something, etc. These places are usually where your e-mail address will get sold to other places, and you end up getting lots and lots of spam.

155 hermeneutics  Mon, Jun 2, 2008 8:48:27pm

True story. Happened yesterday.

Background: I'm visiting a beautiful place -- Angel Fire, New Mexico -- where thousands of vets come annually on Memorial Day. Most of the Vietnam vets come on motorcycles joined by other motorcyclist groups. They congregate in Red River.

Now, the story: So, I'm camping, which means showers are rare and treasured. I paid to take a shower at one of the local RV parks. The shower was clean, cold and unlit. Since I hadn't shaved my legs in at least a month, I decided to shave. (Don't worry, I'm Scandanavian ... not much body fur.)

After my lovely shave and shower, I went to the lodge where some of the remaining vets were sitting and gabbing. One of the really tough-looking motorcyclist guys kept looking down at my legs while he was talking to me. I instinctively crossed my legs tightly and moved them to the side. Then, I saw him look again.

When I glanced down, I saw that my legs had at least twenty little cuts, each bleeding. Totally gross. I looked up at the motorcyclist and said, "Sorry, it was dark in the shower."

He said, "Lady, you look like you've been hit by mortar fragments."

173 stevieray  Mon, Jun 2, 2008 8:52:47pm

Growing up, my next-door neighbor was a veterinarian. Someone abandoned three spider monkeys with him, so he built an outdoor cage to keep them in. They were named Larry, Moe, and Curly, and were irresistible objects of awe and wonder for the kids of the town.

They were also the nastiest, kid-hating hunks of almost-human flesh to ever live on G_d's green earth. They would spit at you, fling poo and gravel at you, and screech like unholy demented banshees in the wee hours of the night. Their favorite trick was to act coy and playful, like harmless little cartoon characters, until an unsuspecting child ventured too near... and then wham! Their creepy little human-paws would shoot out and grab your hair. Then they'd try to pull you close and gnaw on the side of your face.

Charming creatures.

The neighborhood moms made them "go away" after a few weeks... the good doctor was no match for their maternal fury.

When they asked me if I wanted service I told them "No. Any company that refuses to give me a straight answer doesn't deserve my business". I'll never be a TWC customer.

TimeWarner sucked when I lived in NYC and they suck down here, too. Unfortunately the only way I can keep my e-mail addy (which I've had for like,
13 years or so) is to go with Earthlink and their partner, now owner, Time-Warner. Didn't know TW took over Earthlink, so you're options for broadband service are getting really limited. And of the dozen or so friends I've had who used AOL, all are now on either TW or Comcast. They all said AOL sucked.

Any sport that allows the prticipants to both fight and carry weapons is okay with me, but why are they prevented form doing both a the same time?

I remember being involved in a game during high school in which the local gendarmarie decided two minutes was not enough penalty time after one of the opposing players bent the wire facemask of of my teammate with a very pronounced kick of the skate.

That one could have been ugly as a Kos Kid's soul if the facemask didn't hold up.

Spoofing means that someone is using your email address as the from address in the email. Think of it like someone using your SSN to get a job.

The spoofer probably has no code running on your machine, but has merely harvested your email from somewhere on the web. Using your address looks more legitimate than some random string. He will move on when enough servers that he is interested in blacklist your email address..

No, that is not it. It was (in its infancy) a small spring with a handle. The spring was bent in a way to grab all the little hairs. As you raked it over your legs it would tear the hair out of your legs by the roots.

But I do understand that after a couple of months it didn't hurt as much anymore.

No one sadly, I think the commercialisation of the music industry means the companies run it. The music from the 60s to the late 70s was all about individuals writing and performing what they wanted. Now, its individuals doing what big business wants so it sells. The real talent gets walked over.

This is important, Rawmuse.

Some quotes:

" Bolivian President Evo Morales nationalized Bolivia's main gas pipeline company, expanding his control over the Andean country's natural resources one day after losing two regional referendums on his rule. ... taking over energy and mining companies and directing more tax revenue from provinces to the treasury. The government forced oil companies to renegotiate contracts in 2006 and last year seized Glencore International AG's tin smelter. ...Bolivia, the poorest country in South America, has the continent's second-largest reserves of natural gas, after Venezuela. Morales, 48, assumed the presidency in January 2006 after promising to take greater control of natural resources to help the country's largely poor, indigenous majority.

The Obamanation, could just put the names in a hat and then just sign up for his church of choice. Of course we all know what's going to happen if the Obamanation wins the Presidency.

Great show, but crabs aren't kosher, so I don't eat them.
(I didn't always keep kosher, but I do now, and I got even more careful after a repeated dream that told me to. So I know crabs taste good, but you'll have to enjoy them for me.)

So I was reading along, through monkees, Beatles, Mars, possible boyfriend beatings, bloody legs and all the rest, when I suddenly realized...

I understand and follow all of this and the players, without effort. It just all weaves together like a tapestry and makes perfect sense.

That just scares the hell out of me now that I think about it.

re: #377 Buster Bunny

The vast majority of those civil wars have been small cat fights between presidential "candidates," as it were. You put one guy in, you yank him out, you hang him from a lamp post, you put another idiot in, you yank him out, etc., etc., etc. These dramas have mostly been played out between highland factions.

The current situation is different because in the last few decades the lowlands have emerged as the most economically advanced areas. The Andean region, where most of the people....and poor people... live, has lagged behind. There is now a clear difference between the two regions in so far as economic and political interests are concerned. This sets up a situation more like the US in 1850 than the usual Bolivian hijinks.

Resistance is futile.

Bad joke.
The Enterprise crew found that the Borg had a weakness. If they were cooled to liquid nitrogen temperatures, part of them would become superconducting - zero resistance - and they'd burn out.
So the crew equipped themselves with cryogenic squirt guns.
A Borg approached Geordy, and said "Resistance is futile"
Geordy replied "No, resistance is Ohm's Law".
Sprayed him, and the Borg fell down.

Don't believe it.

Let's say you're Roger Ailes. You've got the tape. You can have crazy mad ratings sometime later. Or you can have crazy mad ratings then, and every day from now until then.

"Roll tape."


I never said I believed this tape existed or that M Obama said "whitey". But if it does exist whoever has it will hold it till it benefits them most.

re:

#318 realwest

Yeah but that putz Larry Johnson (not of the NBA and Grandma commercials) has said about elevently million times that he was going to release it this morning!
I emphathize "he" because earlier I let myself be led into thinking that he said FOX has it, but I went back and checked and nope, ole Larry said he'd seen it, had a transcript of it and was gonna release it today.
Right.

And I have no clue who this L Johnson is but if he's on Fox he will hold this tape secret until sweeps so when it comes time to negotiate his next contract he can point to his ratings and demand more money.

re: #364 ccrnyc

Don't they usually save the gratuitous, "breast exam" video for sweeps week.

And yes, but it would fit in nicely between the breast exams and the bikini expose to keep serious news watcher like moi tuned in

No sympathy from here. Byrd and his ilk are ruining the beautiful state of West Virginia with their near-Communism.

Then Dick Cheney makes the comment about how the Cheney family tree didn't diverge quite as much as he thought, even if he's never lived in W.Va., and

Robert "White Ni--ers" Byrd has the raw chutzpah to accuse Cheney of "bigotry"?!?

re: #373 tankdemon
OK - cool and true story - BH and the Crickets left a demo tape at the record company. The A&R guy heard it, thought they had signed a contract and put it out for radio DJ's to play, which they did - driving back to Texas from NYC, BH hears it on the radio at like #15 with a bullet, goes back to NYC. Record company President is really upset - Holly says "So, what do you have to say for yourself, STEALING our music like that?". Pres says "sorry" here's $10,000 and a record contract - standard artists contract don't read it - Holly says I'll read it and sign it after we record a few more songs in YOUR studio instead of our garage. BH then discovers that record company (Decca? Senior moment here!) insists on it's own engineers, and decides how song should be played, adds some strings and shit and BH stomps into President's office and says - no deal, either WE write the music, play the music and do the engineering and OUR songs only go out to the public if we're happy with them. Pres says don't be silly, even Frank Sinatra doesn't have that - here, take $50,000 (a helluva lot of money in those days, especially for a barely 20 year old guy). Holly says, nope, full artistic control and we'll let you keep the money from our song that you've already played; or we'll see you in court. Pres says, shit, Ok. SO Buddy Holly was the first popular musician to get complete artistic control over his music.
When Sinatra found out, he fired his agent and renegotiated HIS record deal for artistic control.
True story.
Ya gotta admire him for putting his music above money.
