My Salute to all Veterans, past and present.
I hesitate to wish you a Happy Veterans' Day because I know for a lot of you, those weren't happy memories.
But I do want to thank you for your Service and I need for you to know that a grateful Nation loves you for that.
If it wasn't for you, we wouldn't be free today.
We love you.
PS. - If you're a a Combat Vet, you deserve an extra nut-rubbin'.
Ordeeeeer - Arms!

I knew I was good for something.
Tomorrow is my folks' 52nd wedding anniversary
I remember when I was 15 I got to adding up the difference in months between their anniversary and my birthday and came up with 8.
Hmmmmm.........
So I asked Mom how come she never mentioned that I was premature. She got embarrassed and said that I wasn't but there was an explanation - Dad was in the army and headed for a tour in France for 2 years, her dad wouldn't let them marry but if she got pregnant then Bud wouldn't have any choice but to consent......
All I could think of was "You shameless little slut."
So every anniversary I remind them that they owe me BIG. I'm the reason they got married and to remember that shit when they write their wills. Then they remind me that the only reason they stayed together was because of the kids. Namely me because I'm the only one that's still alive and/or sane.
Then I remind them that the kids are 51 (me) and 46 (my nutcase brother) years old. Then they remind me of my dead sisters' kids that they raised and barely out of the house and now it's cheaper for them to stay together than it is to split up even though they hate each other.
Who are they kidding? They love each other and are probably still fucking even at 70 years old. After all, we've already established that Mom is kinda sorta loose.
Not that they have anything to leave me when they die anyways.....

Hatin' life right now
Fuck, a 12 hour day with an hours' commute on each end of it. Okay, a 45 minute commute because I haul ass. But still.......
Not only that but I got a discipline letter because I called in Friday so I could go kill something, which I didn't.
Then I popped a circuit breaker when I was in the shower which killed the lights which caused me to drop my beer and spill it down the drain.
So I got out of the shower in the dark, dried off in the fucking dark, then slogged outside in the motherfucking dark half naked to reset the circuit breaker and promptly stepped in a pile of dogshit. WARM dogshit. I hate that fucking dog.
So, it's back in the shower and guess what? I forgot a fresh beer. I hate showering without beer. It's like riding in a crowded elevator and not being able to fart - you got where you wanted to go but you have that empty feeling when you get there.
I am going to bed and hide my head under the covers and drink beer. I'll let you know tomorrow what else went wrong tonight.

For Warren
Warren ain't from around here and commented in the post below asking just what in the hell is a Carhartt?
A Carhartt is an asskicking tough coat. You can skin through briars, brambles and barbed wire without ripping it to shreds. I average about 4 winters per coat and I am hard on them. I wear them hunting, fishing, to work and damned near everywhere else too.
The only fault with them is they are hard to waterproof and that problem is now solved and discussed below.
Click on the link for a peek at my favorite style, Warren.

Waterproofing your Carhartt
Everybody knows how hard it is to waterproof your Carhartt barn coat. No matter what you do, the motherfucker acts like a sponge, just soaking up the water no matter what kind of miracle spray you apply.
I have found the Holy Grail.
Kiwi (of the shoe polish fame) puts out a clothing dressing and a boot dressing. Buy the BOOT dressing. I found it at Big 5 Sporting goods. You should be able to google Kiwi and find it there. It treats leather and canvas and seeing as your Carhartt is canvas.......
Apply it just like the directions say, but be very thorough. It says to spray a coating, wait 4 hours then reapply. Then wait 24 hours before use.
I hit my Carhartt with about half the can with the first application and about 25% for the last one. I paid special attention to the shoulders and back of the coat seeing as that's where I catch most of the rain.
And be advised that you ain't hunting in that motherfucker for a while and even then you better apply a liberal dose of scent killer. That shit definitely has a smell to it.
It rained steadily all day today and I was in my barn coat the whole time. That shit works.
Okay. Now you make a fashion statement AND stay dry at the same time.
Fuck Obama.

Too bad they didn't beat the shit out of him
Members of a small Missouri town banded together Saturday to block a controversial pastor and members of his Westboro Baptist Church from protesting the funeral of a fallen U.S. soldier, Fox4kc.com reports.
Hundreds of residents in Weston, Mo. -- as well as people as far away as California and Australia -- rallied in support of Sgt. First Class C.J. Sadell, who died from injuries suffered during a surprise attack in Afghanistan.
The residents sought to block Fred Phelps, leader of the Westboro Baptist Church in Topeka, Kan., and his followers from picketing Sadell’s funeral, according to the station.
Phelps' church has been the subject of intense criticism for holding more than 44,000 pickets at funerals and other events – including the services of fallen service members.
Citing their First Amendment right to protest, Phelps' followers say they use funerals as an “available public platform” to “deliver the message that there is a consequence for sin.” Phelps is openly opposed to homosexuality and all government policies they he says supports homosexuals.
"We got everybody here early so we could take up all the parking spots," Rebecca Rooney of Weston, Mo., told Fox4kc.com. "We did that so Mr. Phelps wouldn't have a contingency that was really close."
"I'm glad they left, but I'm sad they came," she said.
Sadell, who leaves behind a wife and two sons, was stationed in the Arif Kala region of Afghanistan when his unit was ambushed on Oct. 5. Five soldiers were killed in the attack and Sadell was badly injured.
The 34-year-old died from his injuries on Oct. 24.

A new look
Let me know what you think. Not that I really give a flying fuck but it'll give you something new to bitch about.
The reason I changed it up a bit is because I was because with the template I was using, I was only using about half my available page. This template here will allow my to post videos and shit like that without editing the size.
I'll be playing with it a little more, but it'll just be tweeking it around, nothing major.

What a bunch of dumbasses
A senior Iranian cleric says women who wear revealing clothing and behave promiscuously are to blame for earthquakes.
Iran is one of the world's most earthquake-prone countries, and the cleric's unusual explanation for why the earth shakes follows a prediction by the president, Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, that a quake is certain to hit Tehran and that many of its 12 million inhabitants should relocate.
"Many women who do not dress modestly ... lead young men astray, corrupt their chastity and spread adultery in society, which increases earthquakes," Hojatoleslam Kazem Sedighi was quoted as saying by Iranian media.

Woody, are you reading this?
My buddy Woody's in Colorado attemping to kill an elk.
Goddamn, I love me some elk meat......
Goddamn, I love me some elk meat......
I know, I'm a pig.
Go to yesterdays' posts and see the one about me smoking some meat.
I had planned a nice dinner with some young taters, fresh string beans and a nice grilled red onion, but things didn't work out that way.
I pulled that meat out of the smoker 5-6 hours later and ate the whole motherfucker on the spot. Didn't even make it into the house. And I swear to God, it was so good my tongue jizzed.

Barry's getting paranoid
President Barack Obama and First Lady Michelle arrived in India's commercial hub of Mumbai on Saturday, days after voters punished his Democrats in mid-term elections.
Probably not since the days of the Pharaohs or the more ludicrous Roman Emperors has a head of state travelled in such pomp and expensive grandeur as the President of the United States of America.
While lesser mortals – the Pope, Queen Elizabeth and so on – are usually happy to let their hosts handle most of the security and transport arrangements when they venture beyond their home shores, the United States creates a mini-America on the move to ensure that nothing is left to chance.
Obama arrives in India at the start of a ten-day tour of Asia. At the heart of the White House caravan is ‘The Beast’, a gigantic, ‘pimped-up’ General Motors Cadillac which security experts say is, short of an actual battle tank, probably the safest road vehicle on the planet.
But an outlandish car is only the start. Mr Obama will fly, of course, on Air Force One, the presidential private jumbo jet, which, boasting double beds and suites, is fitted out more like a luxury yacht. Some reports suggest it costs around $50,000 (£31,000) an hour to operate.
Of course threats can come from any direction, so a squadron of U.S. naval ships will patrol offshore. Some reports have claimed that 34 ships, including two aircraft carriers, will be involved (not far off the size of the Royal Navy’s entire Surface Fleet) but the White House has denied this.
On land, as well as The Beast, Mr Obama’s entourage will travel in a fleet of 45 U.S.-built armoured limousines, half of which will be decoys. He will also travel with 30 elite sniffer dogs, mostly German Shepherds.
The White House has, according to some reports, booked the entire Taj Mahal Palace Hotel in Mumbai, the city’s most luxurious. It is not uncommon for the grander heads of state to reserve a floor or two, but a whole hotel is unprecedented. This hotel was the main target of the 2008 attacks by Pakistani militants which left 166 dead.
As to the cost of all this, the White House will not reveal details – which has allowed Mr Obama’s political foes to bandy about sums including a widely-quoted $200million (£123million) a day. Whatever the figure, it makes the costs associated with the Royal Train and the late Royal Yacht Britannia seem like small change.
It is also reported that a bomb-proof tunnel will be erected for Mr Obama ahead of his visit to Mani Bhavan - the Gandhi museum - on Saturday.
According to Daily News & Analysis, U.S. secret service agents visited the museum on Monday to plan Mr Obama's security during his tour.
They were accompanied by Mumbai Police officers and civic officials of the D ward where Mani Bhavan is located.
While they were inspecting the route and the buildings lining the path to the museum, U.S. security officers noticed a nearby skyscraper in the highly populated area that could pose a threat.
To the amazement of the Indians accompanying the U.S. agents, it was apparently decided to erect a bomb-proof over-ground tunnel, which will be installed by U.S. military engineers in just an hour.
The kilometre-long tunnel will measure 12ft by 12ft and will have air-conditioning, close-circuit television cameras, and will be heavily guarded at every point.
It's being built so it is large enough for Mr Obama's cavalcade to pass through and will be manned at its entry and exit points.
The material that the tunnel would be made of has not been released but officials said that the structure would be dismantled immediately after Mr Obama and his party leaves the area.
Meanwhile the furore over reports that his Asia trip is going to cost taxpayers $200million a day has been dismissed by the Obama administration who called the figure 'wildly inflated'.
Last week an Indian government source told the NDTV channel: 'The huge amount of around $200 million would be spent on security, stay and other aspects of the Presidential visit.'
The claim was immediately seized upon by talk show hosts and rights wing politicians who relished the opportunity to rub salt into Mr Obama's wounds saying the trip was a waste of government funds during the country's recession.
But the White House have refused to reveal the true cost of the three-day trip to Mumbai and Delhi.

What India has to say
A Minor Inconvenience
MUMBAI: Commercial flights are likely to be delayed by at least an hour when Air Force One, with an escort of three aircraft and five helicopters, touches down at Mumbai airport on Saturday morning. Though officials have yet to receive communication on air-space closure, protocol calls for a gap six minutes during a VVIP visit.
No commercial or civil flight is allowed to land or take off three minutes prior to and after the scheduled time of arrival. In the US Presidents case, a longer hiatus between his aircraft and other flights is expected. TOI has learned that the Centre is considering extending it to ten minutes in order to secure the airport and the skies.
Even if the closure is for six minutes, one has to take into account the sheer number of aircraft in Obamas entourage, said an airport official. With nine aircraft, helicopters and planes, scheduled to land on Nov 6, air-space closure may last for at least 54 minutes.

The Kidnapping of Hari the Hindu
Their command over the English language has unwittingly landed nearly 300 city cops in virtual confinement as they have been assigned duties at the Taj and are not allowed to leave the hotel till US president Barack Obama leaves on Sunday afternoon.
The officers, holding ranks of sub inspector, assistant sub inspector, inspector, senior inspector and assistant commissioner of police were handpicked by their seniors for their communication skills in English, apart from general police training.
The 300-odd officers will work in tandem with highly trained 300 US security men, forming the inner protection ring guarding the US president during his stay at the Taj.

Obama Using A Teleprompter? Nooooo!
Namaste India! In all likelihood that will be silver-tongued Barack Obama's opening line when he addresses the Indian parliament next week. But to help him pronounce Hindi words correctly will be a teleprompter which the US president uses ever so often for his hypnotising speeches.
According to parliament sources, a technical team from the US has helped the Lok Sabha secretariat install textbook-sized panes of glass around the podium that will give cues to Obama on his prepared remarks to 780 Indian MPs on the evening of Nov 8.
It will be a 20-minute speech at Parliament House's Central Hall that has been witness to some historic events, including first prime minister Jawaharlal Nehru's "tryst with destiny" speech when India became independent.
Obama will make history for more than one reason during the Nov 6-9 visit. This will be the first time a teleprompter will be used in the nearly 100-feet high dome-shaped hall that has portraits of eminent national leaders adorning its walls.
Indian politicians are known for making impromptu long speeches and perhaps that is why some parliament officials, who did not wish to be named, sounded rather surprised with the idea of a teleprompter for Obama.
"We thought Obama is a trained orator and skilled in the art of mass address with his continuous eye contact," an official, who did not wish to be identified because of security restrictions, said.

Fucker.......
Why don't you take care of business at home instead of going to some dirt-poor raghead country that dumps its dead in a fucking river?
Besides, I'd actually like to call my internet/landline/cell phone carrier and talk to a motherfucker that speaks english.
MUMBAI, India (AP) — President Barack Obama arrived in India on Saturday, beginning a 10-day, four-country tour of Asia that will take him through some of the region's most vibrant democracies in search of U.S. economic and security benefits.

The economy added 151,000 jobs in October.
Big Fucking deal. The birthrate in this country was greater than that.
I'm not impressed.

Some folks never learn
Pelosi decided to run for Minority House Leader, believe it or not. As bad as she fucked up being Speaker of the House, you'da thunk she would be tucking her tail and laying low.
But no.........
What's really funny is that the fucking dummycrats will probably vote her in. I mean, she did such a wonderful job as Speaker.
She fucked up so bad as Speaker that the Conservatives are openly applauding and vowing support for her.
“Given that there are now 60-plus defeated Democrat House members urgently seeking jobs due to Nancy Pelosi’s failed leadership, we welcome her decision to run for House Minority Leader based on her proven ability to create jobs for Republican lawmakers,” said National Republican Congressional Committee (NRCC) communications director Ken Spain.

Take it with a grain of salt
Reports have it that The Obamessiahs' trip to India to attend a G-20 conference is going to run me and you about 200 million bucks a day.
Okay, even I don't believe that. For one thing, the war is "only" running us about 190 million a day and damned near every one of you knows how expensive ammo is.
So you can see why I'm doubting those reports.
But, checking into this a little further turns up some trippy shit.
As the BBC reports, Indian officials have been removing coconuts from any trees that Obama might walk under, to prevent anything from falling on the presidential head. And as London's Daily Telegraph notes, the country has deployed trained monkey catchers to prevent any "simian invasion" (a measure that Indian officials also took when President Bush visited in 2006).
Hey, I'm not trying to make light of the money that's going to be spent by Big Government by any means. Them monkey catchers and coconut pickers are just examples of wasteful spending. I mean, how many motherfuckers do you personally know that's been hit on the noggin with a coconut or leg-humped by a monkey? I got pissed on by an elephant once but that's a whole 'nother story.
So.There is no doubt, no doubt at all, this trip is going to cost us big, big bucks especially as the Obamas have no idea how to cut costs. But 200 million? I don't think so.
Fuck Obama.
Okay, even I don't believe that. For one thing, the war is "only" running us about 190 million a day and damned near every one of you knows how expensive ammo is.
So you can see why I'm doubting those reports.
But, checking into this a little further turns up some trippy shit.

Guess what I'm doing today!
I've got a nice 3 pound chunk of beef in the smoker, cooking real slow at 200 degrees with hickory. Damn, my mouth is already watering.
Tit shots
Okay, check this shit out.
I've noticed that my hits go up like you wouldn't believe when I post a semi-nude babe.
Please understand that I won't post any bare ass or tit shots on account that this is a fucking family site.
But what I have a real problem with is actually finding a non-nude tit shot.
Any suggestions as to websites to tease them husbands and teens that aren't old enough to view a nipple?
