This one’s catchy. Crank it!

The video’s amusing, as well. Think Chaplin in color!

And the following’s an earworm of which I cannot rid myself, so I pass it on to you.

The problem with secrets

Posted on October 28, 2010 by Oscar Gordon

Is that they are a double edged sword, protecting the innocent, or further enabling their oppression by state agents.

Even if you think pain advocates are just drug pushers with degrees, that doesn’t excuse the actions of this US Attorney.

In a situation like this

Posted on October 28, 2010 by Oscar Gordon

It’s important to remember to ask the right question, i.e. “Was she hot?”

I mean, if you are going to utterly shit-can your career for a piece of tail, make it worth it.  And don’t tell me you thought you could hide such a relationship on a ship with only 360 crew total.

Lately, there has been a string of such cases, of senior officers & enlisted (male & female) having inappropriate relationships with juniors.  This baffles me, because the military does not treat this topic vaguely, they are pretty clear that this is a “Do Not Do It” topic.

There’s No ATF Agents in the US Virgin Islands

Posted on October 27, 2010 by Alaska

Verry interesting.

Federal authorities were so incensed by the Virgin Island’s [sic] prosecution of Clark — and so concerned other federal agents could similarly be prosecuted — that they removed all ATF agents from the Virgin Islands in 2008, a policy that continues today, the agency said.

Calguns Foundation WINS in Sacramento County

Posted on October 25, 2010 by Alaska

When the lawsuit settles because the other side caves, that’s a win.

Derek came to dinner with the wife and I the other day and he is already well on his way to having his CCW permit in hand. He’s taken the “training course” (about which he really should blog), submitted fingerprints and qualified with his weapons. Now he’s just waiting. Should be about… two weeks!

Congratulations to Derek and to the Calguns Foundation. If you live in California, you really should DONATE or sponsor a county so we can litigate yours (and mine) into submission too.
