Talk about setting the bar low

The stimulus package, the Recovery Act, uhh, contained within it, goals. To improve, to basically, as part of the number of measures it would take to prevent a staggering economy from collapsing into a depression. To save or create jobs. To invest in areas where, uhh, future growth would help drive the overall economy. And, uhh, those goals have been met.

Jay Carney – White House Press Secretary

More proof that the Democrats and the other leftists practice the racism of low expectations.

Blowing the Horn of Gondor

The fellows at The Jawa Report are in need of assistance

Because of our many and very public tangles with jihadists and actual terrorists here at the Jawa Report, revealing any one of our identities could pose a real danger to our health and safety. If my identity were revealed, Tarazi could use the court system to compel me to reveal the identities of other Jawa contributors.

…..

With that in mind, I need to ask for your help. So far the legal costs to file for this protective order have been underwritten by the Middle East Forum’s Legal Project. I’m kindly asking readers of the Jawa Report to go to the Legal Project’s paypal page and throw them some shekels to help us fight this jihadist lawfare attack. Please note “Barbarossa” or “Jawa Report” in the comment section.

She’s going for distance

Posted on February 21, 2011 by Phil Kadath

The woman in this story is on my “Someone I need to meet” list.

The best man at a wedding was left battered and bloodied after he was hit in the head by a fast-moving dildo.

The flying phallus left Darwin architect Jure Skumavc, 31, nursing a split forehead.

Mr Skumavc said he was injured by the bullet-shaped, pink, sex toy – measuring about 12cm in length – at a bucks party to farewell friend’s Peter Rolih’s bachelorhood.

Mr Skumavc was still sporting a scar on his forehead at Mr Rolih’s wedding nearly three weeks after being dinged by the artificial dong. The darting dildo drama unfolded on December 28 in a rented two-bedroom unit in Brisbane.

Mr Skumavc said about eight other friends joined Mr Rolih for the party.

He said a scantily clad exotic dancer appeared after awhile and was soon performing her party trick: shooting dildos at the guests.

Mr Skumavc said those who had seen the infamous ping-pong ball scene in the Australian film The Adventures of Priscilla, Queen of the Desert would know how the party trick worked.

He said the pink projectile was flying an impressive 7m across the room and looping about 2m high.

Oh my.

Methinks Tim Blair really needs to hold an interview with the woman.

Also, Mr. Skumavc should learn to duck.

TMI

Posted on February 18, 2011 by Alaska

So the past weekend we celebrated my daughter’s 28th birthday at her beautiful new place in the Santa Cruz mountains, and I enjoyed hiking with doggies in the towering redwood forest behind the property.

Along about Tuesday I noticed a slight ache around my navel, and figured I’d probably nicked the skin or bruised the area somehow on the trip, what with all the lifting of doggies and gear into and out of the truck. Thought nothing of it; I get cuts and scrapes all the time and they eventually go away.

By last night I was really noticing it whenever I bent over and compressed the navel area, so as I hopped into bed I grabbed a flashlight to check it out. Lo and behold, it appeared I had a foxtail embedded in my belly button! “Gross!” exclaimed the wife.

(For those who don’t know, foxtails are grass seeds, shown at left in the photo below, that are designed to self-burrow into soil when blown hither and thither by the winds. They also tend to self-burrow into other things, particularly the skin of dogs and other animals that wander through tall grasses. A single foxtail can cause infection, and as it glacially burrows its merry way through muscle and into organs, can be fatal.)

Mine, as I stared at it embedded in my navel, looked like the ones in the right of the above photo — dark, wet with blood, and thoroughly nasty.

My intrepid wife grabbed a pair of tweezers and prepared to remove the offender.

What did she pull out? (Hint: it wasn’t a foxtail.)

Bug-Out, Er, Moped

I thought this was interesting. It’s one Calgunner’s low-profile bugout vehicle. He says: “unorthodox, but the best choice given the likely state of all exit points out of the Bay Area.”

RCOB II

This one had a happy ending, but that the kid had to go through all of it still makes my blood boil:

We may be winning on a lot of fronts, but I fear it will require a generational change before the sheer inertia of gun bigotry is eradicated from school administrators’ offices in California.

In any event, congrats to Chuck Michel, firearms attorney extraordinaire, and Hillary Green of his firm, Michel & Associates, for the win. Chuck’s been doing this for a long time.
