Once again, pontificating downstairs. So here, let me share my pontification:
O-whatever the T has become, but I now know why 70 year old men are angry.
Let me start years ago, when I was just 9 years old, in 1966. I bought my first car magazine, Road & Track, with a picture of the then-new Jaguar E-type 2+2 coupe. OMG, what a beautiful car! I have been obsessed with sporty cars, basically all my life, but the American muscle cars of the late 60s through 71 - those I REALLY loved..
When you’re a kid, you can’t have one because you can’t drive. When you’re a young man, you can’t have one because you can’t afford it or the insurance. When you get married, you can’t have one because you’re supposed to be responsible. When you have kids, you can’t have one because you need a family car, AND you can’t afford it.
So, here I am, middle aged. The Big 3 started making muscle cars again, only now they don’t fly off the road when it bends gently, they get >20 mpg, they’re comfy, and even the base models have more power than most of the muscle cars did back in the day. I’ve been waiting 40 years, and I thought ‘Finally! I can get the car I’ve been wanting forever.’
Nope. Now, according to Mrs. Jockey, “It screams “Midlife Crisis!”
So there you go, why men at 70 are so pissed. Because they put off getting things they wanted for years, to be responsible family men, and when finally the kids are grown up, and you’re more financially stable, now you’re considered too old for it. You should buy a nice sedan.
I believe ‘Midlife Crisis’ is a ruse, and I think it’s as insulting as telling a woman “Don’t you worry your pretty head about that, little lady!”
/rant. Now get off my fucking lawn.

Take her out for a test drive in one (pick one, they’re all hot). Halfway through, tell her that she’s your midlife crisis, but if you’re too old for one, you can always leave her at the side of the road and return the car to the dealership.

One of the more depressing aspects of Russia today is that the people you used to respect undergo some unexplainable transformations, as if some sort of an alien left his eggs inside their bodies and they have hatched, or some body snatchers have replaced the person with a body double with an entirely different personality.
You’ve certainly heard of Dmitry Kiselev, that modern day Fr. Coughlin - or Streicher, as that may be - the current architect of Putin’s propaganda machine. His crazy and bigoted rants are almost the stuff of legends now, but he used to be a very rational, liberal journalist in the 1990s.
Here’s him giving a master class on journalism, explaining that a journalist doesn’t have a right to be an “agitator”, that the “plank” must not be lowered, because otherwise one day “we will discover ourselves bathing in dirt, like pigs. And the society will be like that - we’ll be devouring each other, together with dirt … and it won’t be possible to go lower than that.”. How prophetic.

I think I’m going to have my midlife crisis early. My project - should I manage to come up with the cash for it - is a ‘79 Lincoln Continental sitting in my father-in-law’s fencerow. “It ran when he parked it,” although I’d imagine that it’ll need all new rubber parts after sitting in that fencerow for over 12 years. Probably going to do a carb rebuild, new plugs/wires/cap+rotor, etc. Only other work it needs is 4 new tires and a new vinyl top. Plus a nicer home to keep it in.

So Glenn retweets a link talking abut the NYTimes review of his book.
From the review:
In one passage, Mr. Greenwald makes the demonstrably false assertion that one “unwritten rule designed to protect the government is that media outlets publish only a few such secret documents, and then stop,” that “they would report on an archive like Snowden’s so as to limit its impact — publish a handful of stories, revel in the accolades of a ‘big scoop,’ collect prizes, and then walk away, ensuring that nothing had really changed.” Many establishment media outlets obviously continue to pursue the Snowden story. Further, many of Mr. Greenwald’s gross generalizations about the establishment media do a terrible disservice to the many tenacious investigative reporters who have broken important stories on some of the very subjects like the war on terror and executive power that Mr. Greenwald feels so strongly about.

According to Mr. Greenwald, Mr. Snowden would later describe his frustration: “Here am I ready to risk my liberty, perhaps even my life, to hand this guy thousands of Top Secret documents from the nation’s most secretive agency — a leak that will produce dozens if not hundreds of huge journalistic scoops. And he can’t even be bothered to install an encryption program.”

I’ve driven a 5 spd for over 40 yrs now. That satisfies any need for real car driving, when most today just jump in, start one up and point it.
And too many don’t even do that very well. If I had that little to do, I’d probably fall asleep doing it. Having to shift gears (even if it’s second nature now) and paying real attention to traffic and where I’m going is very satisfying. I don’t use the phone, don’t fiddle with the radio, and if the munchkin doesn’t behave, he’s going to be left at home and he knows it. The fewer distractions I have, the better the experience. : )

So, kaiju buffs; a review of Godzilla from the UK Daily Telegraph.
Caution - perhaps some minor spoilers in the article, but nothing too significant, in my opinion.
Godzilla 2014 embodies a roughly equivalent present-day fear: that the planet, exhausted by its ill-treatment at humankind’s hands, is about to start wiping the slate clean. Tsunamis, earthquakes, rising tides, nuclear meltdowns: these are the very recognisable threats posed by this new monster. The result is a summer blockbuster that’s not just thrilling, but that orchestrates its thrills with such rare diligence, you want to yelp with glee.

Bad press is better than no press, I guess.
Super Mario Snowden saves the world:
Mr. Snowden also confided “with a hint of embarrassment,” Mr. Greenwald writes, that video games had taught him certain lessons. As Mr. Snowden put it: “The protagonist is often an ordinary person, who finds himself faced with grave injustices from powerful forces and has the choice to flee in fear or to fight for his beliefs. And history also shows that seemingly ordinary people who are sufficiently resolute about justice can triumph over the most formidable adversaries.”

New “interview” w/Snowden. Wonder who actually provided these answers? Although I doubt very much this was an interview proper; no doubt these “answers” were gleaned by some other method.
Exclusive: Edward Snowden on Why He Partnered With Glenn Greenwald
“Though he remains in exile in Russia, Edward Snowden still chats with Glenn Greenwald most days. Here, Snowden shares his thoughts on his partner. (You can read our Q+A with Greenwald here.) “
One thing that stands out here (seems minor, but WTH) because Greenwald said in another piece that Snowden was able to go to bed about 10:30 and sleep for a good 7 hrs. So how would Snowden know how long Greenwald slept?
“I don’t think I saw him [GG] stay down for more than two hours a night, but it made sense, because he was working under extraordinary pressure.” Snowden

Take her out for a test drive in one (pick one, they’re all hot). Halfway through, tell her that she’s your midlife crisis, but if you’re too old for one, you can always leave her at the side of the road and return the car to the dealership.
It was after the test drive that she pronounced it an MLC Car. To be fair, the dealer had hidden all the base models with their lack of stripes and simple cloth interiors, and rolled out one with a big red stripe and red leather interior. I think they’re having difficulty selling it, for reasons that should be obvious, and they were hoping I was dumb enough to buy before thinking.
We don’t do that. We don’t buy the same day we testdrive. That’s why.

re: #1 GeneJockey
Once again, pontificating downstairs. So here, let me share my pontification:
O-whatever the T has become, but I now know why 70 year old men are angry.
Let me start years ago, when I was just 9 years old, in 1966. I bought my first car magazine, Road & Track, with a picture of the then-new Jaguar E-type 2+2 coupe. OMG, what a beautiful car! I have been obsessed with sporty cars, basically all my life, but the American muscle cars of the late 60s through 71 - those I REALLY loved..
When you’re a kid, you can’t have one because you can’t drive. When you’re a young man, you can’t have one because you can’t afford it or the insurance. When you get married, you can’t have one because you’re supposed to be responsible. When you have kids, you can’t have one because you need a family car, AND you can’t afford it.
So, here I am, middle aged. The Big 3 started making muscle cars again, only now they don’t fly off the road when it bends gently, they get >20 mpg, they’re comfy, and even the base models have more power than most of the muscle cars did back in the day. I’ve been waiting 40 years, and I thought ‘Finally! I can get the car I’ve been wanting forever.’
Nope. Now, according to Mrs. Jockey, “It screams “Midlife Crisis!”
So there you go, why men at 70 are so pissed. Because they put off getting things they wanted for years, to be responsible family men, and when finally the kids are grown up, and you’re more financially stable, now you’re considered too old for it. You should buy a nice sedan.
I believe ‘Midlife Crisis’ is a ruse, and I think it’s as insulting as telling a woman “Don’t you worry your pretty head about that, little lady!”
/rant. Now get off my fucking lawn.
Tell Mrs. Jockey she should be glad your midlife crisis is a muscle car and not a twenty something blond.//

We watched Saving Mr. Banks last night. I believe the car depicted was a ‘61 Lincoln. A beautiful machine to be sure. My father-in-law’s ‘79 has a very different sort of look to it; less elegant, more beastly, in a I-rule-the-road-now-get-off sort of fashion.

I mean, it’s just so simple. I mean, it’s not like I’m just going to be wasted on those companies, since they can take one look at my job history and education and know I’d be gone the instant something better came along.

What these morons don’t get is that in a few years, if something doesn’t change, is that half the open jobs out there will be in retail, food service, hospitality and housecleaning. All the lowest paying sector openings are increasing in numbers and the skilled, better paying jobs are disappearing. Half the workforce isn’t entry level, no matter how much they say so.
What’s happening is that the multinationals have given up on the American middle class because China and India have a growing middle class that already outnumbers the population of the entire US by at least double. So now we get to be the cheap labor and our idiot legislatures are passing laws and easing regulations to make it happen faster.

re: #1 GeneJockey
Once again, pontificating downstairs. So here, let me share my pontification:
O-whatever the T has become, but I now know why 70 year old men are angry.
Let me start years ago, when I was just 9 years old, in 1966. I bought my first car magazine, Road & Track, with a picture of the then-new Jaguar E-type 2+2 coupe. OMG, what a beautiful car! I have been obsessed with sporty cars, basically all my life, but the American muscle cars of the late 60s through 71 - those I REALLY loved..
When you’re a kid, you can’t have one because you can’t drive. When you’re a young man, you can’t have one because you can’t afford it or the insurance. When you get married, you can’t have one because you’re supposed to be responsible. When you have kids, you can’t have one because you need a family car, AND you can’t afford it.
So, here I am, middle aged. The Big 3 started making muscle cars again, only now they don’t fly off the road when it bends gently, they get >20 mpg, they’re comfy, and even the base models have more power than most of the muscle cars did back in the day. I’ve been waiting 40 years, and I thought ‘Finally! I can get the car I’ve been wanting forever.’
Nope. Now, according to Mrs. Jockey, “It screams “Midlife Crisis!”
So there you go, why men at 70 are so pissed. Because they put off getting things they wanted for years, to be responsible family men, and when finally the kids are grown up, and you’re more financially stable, now you’re considered too old for it. You should buy a nice sedan.
I believe ‘Midlife Crisis’ is a ruse, and I think it’s as insulting as telling a woman “Don’t you worry your pretty head about that, little lady!”
/rant. Now get off my fucking lawn.

When stuff made in the USA is cheaper than the stuff made here in China, then I’ll know the USA is on the ropes, if not KO’d on the world markets. But right now, American (and European) stuff are the bling that middle- and upper-class Chinese want to own — anything with a Western brand name, even if it’s manufactured in China*. The prices for such items match the market.
China has no comparable brand names, other than Lenovo or maybe Moutai, that Chinese or anyone else MUST have. That aspect of the American economy is still on solid ground.
* Chinese consumers will willingly pay considerably more for items that are physically made in America or Europe, because they have more panache. In other words, if Nike, Adidas, or GM sold their American-made merchandise in China for elevated prices, there would be a market for them. The nouveau riche in China are no smarter or sophisticated than any of that class in the USA. They would cheerfully pay $300 - $500 for a pair of athletic shoes physically made in the USA, because they can.

Yes, the globalization of commerce uncouples the corporation from the population of the nation where it arose.
However, I think it’s got a limited shelf-life. At some point, every country will have been dragged up or down to the same level. You’ll no longer be able to build things cheaply by exploiting some new workforce to sell to a richer population that either can still afford it or thinks it can still afford it.
Ten years ago, I said that the US had to be able to be smarter, more efficient, and more inventive than the rest of the world to keep ahead. It might have been possible then. Now? not so much. Too many people have too much invested in the population of the US being ignorant and ill-informed, and they can make their money without the rest of the nation doing well.

re: #88 Pie-onist Overlord
Honestly, I think most people over age 35 or so do not get at ALL how the job market has changed. Especially if they managed to keep their jobs through the mess that started in 2007-08.
I am 54 now. My first decent job was a few months out of high school. I worked for Goodyear in a factory. I made enough money to take care of myself, put money in the bank, had healthcare etc. I was 19. By the time I was 21 that job was shipped overseas. I was never able to afford a college education because I had no family support and had to work to provide for myself. I never got another job that paid that well. And it wasn’t for lack of experience or trying either. I worked in retail(not my chosen thing for my life at all, btw) for the better part of my adult life and I watched that business go from providing a decent wage and pretty good health insurance, paid vacations, etc. to slashing and burning and shitting on the workers. I worked my way up into dept managing and buying, the chances of a kid being able to do that now are not nearly as good as they were back then.
People who spout off about this shit either are rich and have no clue what it is to work like crazy just to survive or they are completely detached from what’s happened because none of it has happened to THEM. (of course for some it’s both)

A Louisville judge of my acquaintance drove a cherry-red Mazda Miata around town at the age of 75. He didn’t give an ounce of fuck what other people thought of it, because, hey, he was a judge and probably knew more unsavory stuff about them than they did about him. His wife rode shotgun, so I guess she was cool with the whole sports car thing.
As for me, I’d like a sports car, but not right now. My midlife crisis — if you want to call it that — was to chuck teaching high school and come to China to teach university students English. It’s a lot of fun! Seriously. It’s rewarding work, but not especially in the financial sense. Plus, I get to hang out with young people. The day I have to quit teaching will probably be the same day I tell y’all to get off my lawn.

OK. This is weird. And sad, as well.
A judge on Monday ordered an investigation into the whereabouts of Casey Kasem after an attorney for the ailing radio personality’s wife said the former “Top 40” host had been removed from the country.
Casey Kasem’s children have complained that they have been unable to see their father in accordance with an agreement with their stepmother. Daughter Kerri Kasem had sought a temporary conservatorship and was appointed her father’s temporary caretaker on Monday. Her attorney, Troy Martin, said the family believes the entertainer has been taken to an Indian reservation in Washington state.
[Judge] Murphy’s order came after Craig Marcus, an attorney who appeared on Jean Kasem’s behalf at Monday’s hearing, said he did not know where the radio personality was but knew that he had been removed from the country.
“I have no idea where he is,” Marcus said.
The revelation brought stunned protests from Murphy and two of Casey Kasem’s daughters, two of the entertainer’s three children from a previous marriage.

In GA the temps have hit 90 (not officially, but the thermometer on my back porch read 92 this afternoon, the official number was 87 I believe) about 10 -12 degrees above normal. I have had to turn the ac on, which I try really hard not to do til at least mid June. We’ve also had air quality alerts, if we have them it’s usually not until we’ve had lots of hot days with no rain, like in July.
I can assure you that anyone who has kept a garden for the last decade can see the changes, I know I have, and it’s not for the better either. Not helping is massive construction around here again, lots of dirt and dust and who knows what is in the air. I cannot go out without feeling the grit on my skin and seeing it on my plants. It’s mostly I’d almost bet the people who spend all their time in buildings who swear there’s no climate change. Or people who simply see nature as a utility for their own use, they don’t give a shit either.

The Gosnell matter would certainly make an interesting documentary film, particularly how in the world he was still in practice. If I were going to make a documentary on the subject, that would be the focus of it. Certainly, blatant medical malpractice, and it’s not as though this all came out of the blue; there were several previous complaints dating back to 1989. He had over 40 lawsuits filed against him over the course of three decades.
It would certainly make for a good cautionary tale; a complete and utter failure by regulators who chose to look the other way, with horrifying consequences.

I could be wrong though.
Glenn was all for Bush invading Iraq & Afghanistan:
I had not abandoned my trust in the Bush administration. Between the president’s performance in the wake of the 9/11 attacks, the swift removal of the Taliban in Afghanistan, and the fact that I wanted the president to succeed, because my loyalty is to my country and he was the leader of my country, I still gave the administration the benefit of the doubt. I believed then that the president was entitled to have his national security judgment deferred to, and to the extent that I was able to develop a definitive view, I accepted his judgment that American security really would be enhanced by the invasion of this sovereign country.

Syria’s most extreme jihadist faction issued a ban Monday on mannequins in shop displays and the sale of women’s underwear to male customers, a monitoring group said.
The decision by the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant (ISIL) in their northern stronghold of Raqa also bans men and women shopping together unless he is her husband, father or brother, the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights said.

Prolonged period of hot and very dry conditions this week with potential record heat Tuesday through Thursday…
…Gusty Santa Ana winds and extreme fire danger to impact southwest California at times through Thursday…
A strong upper level high pressure system will build off the California coast California on Monday and edge closer to the region over the next few days. This in combination with a persistent offshore flow pattern near the surface will bring periods of gusty Santa Ana winds along with an extended period of hot and very dry conditions this week. In fact…record high temperatures will be possible Tuesday through Thursday.
Warmest coastal and valley locations are expected to climb into the lower to mid 90s on Monday…nudging upward into the mid to upper 90s by Tuesday. The hottest days of this early season heat wave are expected to be Wednesday and Thursday…when warmer coastal and valley locations are forecasted to reach 100 degrees.
