To another Friday.

I have been browsing the forums on the Lake Charles website and have come across the type of stupidity you would come to expect for the people who are used to handouts from the government.
Re: Fema
I have spoke with my father-in-law and let me tell that if FEMA does not come thru with the funds for all of us who have evacuated. I guarantee that their will be a large class action lawsuit. The damage is that had freaking hurricane thru our city and that they should help us out instead of giving us a line of bullsh$t.
Who the hell do you think you are? Class action lawsuit against the government, your government? How stupid are you? It’s really ashame the Hurricane didn’t take you out of the gene pool. Please go to another country that doesn’t give a crap about you so you can get an idea of how good you really have it here. You are a society of leeches who leech off of others and expect to have things handed to you without any sort of gratitude. You’re ungrateful and have a complete dependency on others, its bread into your culture. Learn to be independent, learn to be grateful, and when you ask for help, I just might help you when you are down, but don’t count on it. And for godsakes don’t sue the government for not helping you fast enough. You, your neighbor, and I are having to pay for your lawsuit.
Holger is the man. I emailed him yesturday about the contiuned suckage of the spam I’m getting as of late and guess what? He had a solution. So now if you try to post a comment, you’ll have to manually verify an image.
What.
The.
Fuck.
So, you’re Les Miles. It’s your first game as head coach at LSU at Tiger Stadium. You’re playing a delayed game at home against a team that flew in THAT FUCKING DAY to play your team, the fourth ranked team in the nation. Your team then proceeds to run up a 21-0 lead by halftime, and then the team begins making huge mental mistakes. You quarterback, a sophomore who apparently never learned the concept of fucking CLOCK CONTROL, decides to run the ball instead of throwing the ball out of bounds, thus preventing you from being able to score a (what will later be critical) field goal before going into halftime.
So, what do you do?
Apparently not much, given that LSU just blew a FUCKING TWENTY ONE POINT LEAD at halftime to lose in Overtime, 30-27.
I’m sickened, seriously. The second half of tonight’s game was possibly one of the worst efforts I’ve ever seen on a football field. There was no heart, no effort and eventually no more time. I went from being really happy at half to just outright fury at this travesty of a game.
There are so many questions right now I can’t even think straight. Do you start JaMarcus Russell on Saturday against Mississippi State? How can you rebound after a total collapse like that?
Fuuuuuuuuuuck.
Out.
Thursday night, I’m gonna be at the Austin premiere of “Serenity.” It’s at the Lamar Alamo Drafthoue location.
Oh, and two of the movie’s stars are gonna be there- Jewel Staite (Kaylee) and Summer Glau (River Tam).
AND BEFORE ANYBODY ASKS… no, I will not be asking any questions. Nuh-uh, not after last time. I’ve learned my lesson on that one.
I will let you folks know how the movie is, natch.
Out.
UPDATE: So, I really want to kick myself right now.
See, it turns out that the midnight show I got tickets for is NOT the same show as the one with the actors and such. That show, scheduled for Wednesday night, is not available.
Still, midnight show of Serenity? I’m there.
Out.
Reports of the Lake Charles Airport has lost its roof. A barge broke loose in the Lake/River and ran aground near 210 bridge. Power is out, windows have been blown out and there is some extensive damage. Roadways are blocked, large oak trees are down. Lake Charles Courthouse is leaking and there is some minor flooding. Iowa, La. has bridges out. At the airport the private hangers have turned over.
Trying to reason with Hurricane season…….by Jimmy Buffett
Squalls out on the gulf stream,
Big storms coming soon.
I passed out in my hammock,
God, I slept way past noon.
Stood up and tried to focus,
I hoped I wouldn’t have to look far.
I knew I could use a Bloody Mary,
So I stumbled next door to the bar.
[Chorus:]
And now I must confess,
I could use some rest.
I can’t run at this pace very long.
Yes, it’s quite insane,
I think it hurts my brain.
But it cleans me out and then I can go on.
There’s something about this Sunday
It’s a most peculiar gray
Strolling down the avenue
That’s known as A1A
I was feeling tired, then I got inspired.
And I knew that it wouldn’t last long
So all alone I walked back home, sat on my beach
And then I made up this song.
[Chorus]
Well, the wind is blowin’ harder now
Fifty knots of there abouts,
There’s white caps on the ocean.
And I’m watching for water spouts
It’s time to close the shutters
It’s time to go inside.
In a week I’ll be in gay Paris;
That’s a mighty long airplane ride.
[Chorus]
Yes, It cleans me out and then I can go on.
Now I must say….. I think that Jimmy Buffett would be the first to be ready for the hurricane party, I feel compassion for those leaving their homes, but the best thing to do is get drunk….so here is a recipe for my new drink…..The Hurricane Rita…..
in a 26 oz Hurricane glass, combine the following ingredients.
1oz Dark Rum
1oz Bacardi 151
1oz Top shelf Tequila
1oz Triple sec
1/2 cup orange juice
1/2 cup pineapple juice
1/2 oz Grenadine
Juice of 1/2 lime
1 teaspoon of sugar
garnish with a Lime and a Cherry.
and Get drunk!
To all: Please know that everyone in the path of this storm and victims of Katrina are in our Prayers, I am here just trying to make light of a bad situation.

Looks like another is on the way, better evacuate or …. if you’re an asshole stay and loot.
Here’s a post she put up at Ariana Huffington’s blog. Take a look at it.
Now, stop laughing if you can.
Every day this woman continues in her “cause” she makes an even bigger fool out of herself. My favorite line in the whole thing is “George Bush needs to stop talking, admit the mistakes of his all around failed administration, pull our troops out of occupied New Orleans and Iraq, and excuse his self from power.”
That’s right. Bush needs to pull troops out of Iraq and New Orleans- where they’re occupying things, mind you- and resign. That’s what needs to happen, and it’ll make everything all better and happy then!
Y’know what, after the bitch of a day I’ve had I needed a good laugh. So, thank you Cindy Sheehan. For once, you’ve served a purpose other than that of being a tool for the far Left.
Don’t worry though, Cindy. You’re still a tool to me.
Out.
NOTE: For those who would complain that I am making light of Cindy Sheehan’s personal tragedy, I would point out that nowhere above did I discuss the unfortunate events that pushed her initially into the limelight. Losing her son was something I wouldn’t wish on anyone, but she’s repeatedly made a fool out of herself since then. So, there.)
I got into an argument the other day with someone concerning today’s standards about romance and meeting someone for the first time. They, or rather she contended that she’d be more amiable towards someone who brought her flowers or a card on a first date. I said, well in today’s dating world someone who does that on a first date may seem a bit desperate. She then said, someone that would call her all the time even if she didn’t answer. I said “you must be looking for a “stalker”. What’s funny is women want exactly the opposite when they get it.
What happens when she goes back to work the next day after going out with the guy who brought her flowers and a card? She tells her co-workers and then they all start discussing it.. things like “he’s trying to hard…”, “what’s he hiding.” Then she starts receiving phone calls from the guy saying “hi”. They start thinking.. yep.. He’s off his rocker.
Now my argument she totally disagreed. I said you’re view of a perfect romance is warped by trashy romance novels and Hollywood. I know that’s really really mean, but damnit its the truth. We’ve been there. Women say one thing but do another.
Don’t jump the gun and say I’m cheap or anti-romance. I think that romance is something very important in a relationship and the whole flowers card thing should happen, but it should be an unexpected surprise and not on a first date. And Flowers are never a way of apologizing.
So you tell me women folk, what’s the deal? Flowers on a first date yes or no and why?
Hurricane is stalled.. Bush takes blame for federal response… uh.. Jihadists in Iraq bomb some stuff kill innocents… oh and rumor has it that Arnold will be running for gubernator again. I hope he does, I’d like to see him continue in politics because he has his head on right.
So, I’m reading the little entertainment blurbs on IMDB.com and I come across this article, from WENN:
Moore To Capture Katrina on Film?
Controversial film-maker Michael Moore is planning to make a hard-hitting documentary based on Us President George W. Bush’s handling of the Hurricane Katrina rescue operation. Moore grabbed international acclaim with his scathing 2004 film Fahrenheit 9/11, which studied Bush’s handling of the September 11th terrorist attacks. The Oscar winner is now “seriously considering” documenting the catastrophe in America’s Gulf Coast region. He tells the New York Daily News, “There is much to be said and done about the man-made annihilation of New Orleans, caused not by a hurricane but by the very specific decisions made by the Bush administration in the past four and a half years. Do not listen to anyone who says we can discuss all this later. No, we can’t. Our country is in an immediate state of vulnerability. More hurricanes, wars, and other disasters are on the way, and a lazy bunch of self-satisfied lunatics are still running the show.”
I’ve always felt Moore was a self-aggrandizing opportunist who does nothing unless he knows it’ll get him publicity. His “documentaries” are pathetic diatribes of his own opinion without any semblance of fact-checking or accuracy, and any move he makes is to make sure he looks better. (I’ll let his physical appearance serve as its own ironic point.) This is simply the latest desparate attempt to remain the media “darling” that he oh so desperately wants to be, except this time?
This time, he’s hitting a little too close to home.
Tell you what, Michael. Make your little “documentary.” But before you do that, how about ponying up some needed funds towards relief efforts, and then donating the entire amount of profits you earn from this project to the Red Cross? I know that goes against your policy of “ME ME ME ME!!!” but it would do a hell of a lot more than the pile of crap that’ll inevitably spew forth from your cameras.
Out.
In every single article they get, they try to slam the president for doing his job. Actually he’s going above and beyond. But the media trys to portray him as not doing what he is supposed to.
The visit is the president’s third to the region since Hurricane Katrina slammed ashore August 29.
Two days after the storm hit, Bush surveyed Katrina’s destruction from Air Force One on his way back to Washington from Crawford, Texas, where he had spent a month’s vacation. He visited other parts of the region in two subsequent visits.
In the midst of criticism about state, local and federal response to Katrina, a new poll shows Bush’s job approval rating dipping below 40 percent for the first time.
A months vacation? Its been told again and again that he was not on vacation per say. Job approval rating? What polls? You see they don’t mention any polls only to say that “a new poll.”
You know how CNN gets this information. The writer yells out in the office “Who thinks Bush isn’t doing his job?”
A bunch of people raise their hand. Thus, the new poll is created.
