Now you can tell your grandkids...
that you were there the day that free speech went four-up in America...
Random House publishing has killed a romanticized book about the prophet Mo's favorite wife, six year old Aisha, for fear it would offend muzzies. Actually, not for fear of offending muzzies, but fear of muzzies... big fucking difference from where I stand. I know a lot of people who can be offended by many things, but they don't resort to violence like the followers of the so called religion of peace.
You can read about this here, here and here...
Score another victory for the 6th century scum that has come to destroy our way of life. We are going to die, as a people and a nation, because we will not stand against this plague of cock sucking dogs from hell, but bend over backwards to make sure we don't hurt their feelings.

Tyson Foods update...
I received a reply from Tyson Foods regarding the Labor Day issue...


"Contrary to recent reports, Labor Day has not been done away with at
the Tyson plant in Shelbyville, TN. Recent RWDSU(Retail, Wholesale &
Department Store Union) contract negotiations resulted in a different
holiday for workers covered by the contract, for which the union
bargained. Employees not covered by the contract will still have Labor
Day as a paid holiday. The union asked for and received eid al-fitr in
place of Labor Day as a paid holiday. Employees receive eight paid
holidays per year, which is the same number provided in the old
contract. The contract does not provide for an additional holiday."

As far as I'm concerned, it's still guilt by association. You might want to voice your displeasure to the RWDSU as well, as will I...

nothings ever easy...
I went out today and bought forty 2x4s, with the intention of ripping them into 2x2 furring strips so I could start on the living room ceiling. I pulled out the ripping blade for my table saw and decided that it had been sharpened at least two times too many, so I went back out to get a new one. They don't make them to fit my table saw anymore. It has an 8" blade. All the new table saws have either 10" or 12" blades. I can use a circular saw blade that's 7 1/4" in diameter, I guess, but all the blades have a knockout in the arbor, and I'm leery of it deciding to come apart if I hit a good knot or if it binds up a bit. Anyone have any experience with using a circular saw blade in a table saw?
So, since I couldn't do that, I decided to play lumberjack. I took down a fifteen foot tall Catawba tree, a twelve foot red cedar and a horribly overgrown lilac bush. Not a lot of fun, but I needed to eliminate some of the shade over my new hedging plants. I have two thirty foot poplars and an equally tall Catawba that still need to come down, but I'm calling in an arborist to take care of those. They're too big and too close to The Manor for amateur mistakes. I found a guy that will take them down for less than a thousand, which is pretty cheap and well worth the price just to make sure I don't dent the house.
Some nice steaks, marinated in soy and cracked pepper, for dinner tonight, along with some fresh corn from the farmer down the road, and some homemade potato salad. I think I'll enjoy some Peroni with it.
It promises to be a wonderful evening, perhaps an after dinner fire is in order.
Have a good one, my fellow wanderers. Fare thee well.

Saturday's Goth Girl...




another great image by Alan Clement...
Like a lot of the photos I've seen of our goth friends from the other side of the pond, she looks like she's enjoying the moment in a big way. The goth girls I've encountered on this side of the waters seem to take it all a bit too seriously, or at least put that front on. Goth's a lot about having fun with it, not playing the old "woe is me" card all the time, or being stuck up about it. It's not about being "gother than thou". The goths in England seem to be pretty merry when out and about. I like that...

Hope you're having a swell Saturday.

OW..!!!
I decided to take the afternoon off today and do something therapeutic, like mow the grounds around The Manor and while I was taking a break, one of these decided to introduce itself to the back of my neck...

twice...

After smashing it to jelly, uttering here to fore unheard oaths and performing a colorful interpretation of a surely forgotten Eastern European folk dance, I treated it with a few ice cubes and will further medicate myself against horrible infection later on by consuming a Herculean quantity of stout. I think I will shall survive.
In other news, I'm still in a bit of a funk, but stop by tomorrow for a new Saturday's Goth Girl and maybe some pithy commentary, too. Or not.
Later.
