When they find out (and they will) that this is not enough, they'll have to cut some more...then more...and more. But raise taxes? OH GOD NO, NOT THAT!!!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The rest of the nation is closing in fast &amp;amp; pretty soon, we won't be able to afford to pay unemployment &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_2"&gt;bennies&lt;/span&gt; because WE CAN'T RAISE TAXES, OH GOD NO!!! Nor any other social &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_3"&gt;bennies&lt;/span&gt;...like public schools.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Why can't our state &amp;amp; federal &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_4"&gt;gov's&lt;/span&gt; raise taxes? Because Jane and Joe American &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_5"&gt;Meathead&lt;/span&gt; are so &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_6"&gt;gawddamn&lt;/span&gt; stupid. "What's the Matter With Kansas?" was the right question, but the degree was too modest---to the tune of 1/50&lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_7"&gt;th&lt;/span&gt; of where it &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_8"&gt;should've&lt;/span&gt; been "asked".&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Meanwhile, law-&lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_9"&gt;enforcement&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_10"&gt;dept's&lt;/span&gt; are becoming increasingly &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_11"&gt;belligerent&lt;/span&gt;, &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_12"&gt;aggressive&lt;/span&gt; and willfully acting with ever-increasing impunity...not as bad as British coppers yet, but we're getting there fast.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_13"&gt;DoJ&lt;/span&gt; is overturning "guilty" verdicts against right-wingers while utterly ignoring &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_14"&gt;politikal&lt;/span&gt; prosecutions waged by and via blatantly corrupt officers of the courts [whenever liberals are the sacrificial goats]. No relief there.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The Executive has not only assumed the Dark Lord mantles of injustice finally finished by eight years of Bush/Cheney, but now this new one is busy adding new layers and double-stitching to make them even thicker and stronger. Obama got his fingers into the honey-pot of &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_15"&gt;unConstitutional&lt;/span&gt; Executive Powers and decided he likes the sweet taste of it, and he wants more-more-more.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Some &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_16"&gt;DINOs&lt;/span&gt; have learned that they can call themselves "Democrats" with a straight face simply by adding "Blue-dog" in front of it and Jane &amp;amp; Joe American &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_17"&gt;Meathead&lt;/span&gt; are so &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_18"&gt;gawddamn&lt;/span&gt; stupid that...well, they must be buying all their bottled water from Kansas. And "Blue-dogs" are not the only &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_19"&gt;DINOs&lt;/span&gt; in DC---all most all of the so-called Democrats are &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_20"&gt;DINOs&lt;/span&gt;, but they're already so &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_21"&gt;gawddamn&lt;/span&gt; corrupt that lying with a straight face comes as easy for them as breathing the super-filtered &amp;amp; extra-conditioned air in their congressional suites...and how suite it is: I was in a congressional suite once---a close relative was on Alan Simpson(R-&lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_22"&gt;Wy&lt;/span&gt;)'s staff and he gave us a tour...damn suite! This relative left when Simpson left, now &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_23"&gt;Unkle&lt;/span&gt; Dave is a big-shot little cog in the Military Industrial Complex (&lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_24"&gt;Raytheon&lt;/span&gt;) and making a killing...along with his father-in-law, who was an AF General before revolving straight from active service into &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_25"&gt;Raytheon&lt;/span&gt;...&lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_26"&gt;Unk&lt;/span&gt; Dave was a one-tour Army officer: paid his (tax-paid education) dues &amp;amp; then bailed out to revolve straight into Simpson's suite. How suite was that?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And that's the way it is.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;There won't be any health-care fix 'cause &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_27"&gt;Obama's&lt;/span&gt; playing Jane &amp;amp; Joe American &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_28"&gt;Meathead&lt;/span&gt; (just like the &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_29"&gt;DINOs&lt;/span&gt; are) with a &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_30"&gt;veiw&lt;/span&gt; on his second term. He'll say, "I couldn't &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_31"&gt;do'er&lt;/span&gt; 'cause congress couldn't do their part," and the &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_32"&gt;DINO's&lt;/span&gt; will say, "We couldn't &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_33"&gt;do'er&lt;/span&gt; 'cause the &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_34"&gt;WH&lt;/span&gt; was asking for too much," so Jane &amp;amp; Joe American &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_35"&gt;Meathead&lt;/span&gt; will vote again for their own precious &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_36"&gt;incumbents&lt;/span&gt;, which brings us to the bottom line:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The only way to fix this is for a majority of us to vote against every &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_37"&gt;gawddamn&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_38"&gt;incumbent&lt;/span&gt; in every &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_39"&gt;gawddamn&lt;/span&gt; election until our rep's start representing us, We the People. But that's not gonna happen 'cause you only get to say this from on high one and the sharp sticks come out to push you down into silent obscurity, and hold you there. Jane &amp;amp; Joe &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_40"&gt;Meathead&lt;/span&gt; need to be beaten over the head with this plan repeatedly, over &amp;amp; over again, but we can't do it from under the muck. I had my one shot via &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_41"&gt;democracyunderground&lt;/span&gt;.com and they kicked me out, no reason given.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Black Jack &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_42"&gt;Brisko&lt;/span&gt;, signing off.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8196399-113466021510278514?l=methinkstoomuch.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://methinkstoomuch.blogspot.com/feeds/113466021510278514/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8196399&amp;postID=113466021510278514&amp;isPopup=true' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8196399/posts/default/113466021510278514'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8196399/posts/default/113466021510278514'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://methinkstoomuch.blogspot.com/2009/07/same-o-same-o.html' title='Same-o same-o,'/><author><name>call me crazy</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8196399.post-5747847546799246648</id><published>2009-07-12T03:28:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2009-07-12T04:19:50.616-07:00</updated><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>In a state of unmitigated early-morning boredom, we earlier set upon a mind-numbing journey back to this &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_0"&gt;blog's&lt;/span&gt; very beginning and reread [most of] the entries. We find that at times we were wrong about some things (2 things, actually), that our thought-processes were sometimes so convoluted that our blog-entries bordered on &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_1"&gt;incomprehensible&lt;/span&gt; (to put it kindly) and---and this is the worst---we seem to have lost our edge somewhere that long road of &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_2"&gt;convalescence&lt;/span&gt; following Black Jack &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_3"&gt;Brisco's&lt;/span&gt; crushed heel.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Item 1: The 2 things we were wrong about: a) &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_4"&gt;Bushco&lt;/span&gt; did not attack Iran as an October Surprised in '06 (we thought they would); b) the &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_5"&gt;Repugs&lt;/span&gt; did not retain their one-party rule (we thought they would).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Item 1-a: Thank God&lt;br /&gt;Item 1-b: the difference between the (R) double-majority in Congress vs the (D) double-majority is proving to be &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_6"&gt;insignificant&lt;/span&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Item 2: Our thought-processes were (and still are) convoluted because we live in a very complex world where many, many things turn out to be &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;not&lt;/span&gt; what they at first appeared to be.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Item 3: We lost our edge because we lost all hope.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Jane &amp;amp; Joe American &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_7"&gt;Meathead&lt;/span&gt; are still &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_8"&gt;meatheaded&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_9"&gt;meatheads&lt;/span&gt; and no wiser now than when we first started this insane blog...they (read "you") are beyond redemption because their (i.e. your) ability to think has been amputated by our collective loss of the Fairness Doctrine and and the &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_10"&gt;unConstitutional&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_11"&gt;legalization&lt;/span&gt;(sic) of news-media monopolies...all thanks to Ronny-baby &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_12"&gt;Raygun&lt;/span&gt; and all of you &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_13"&gt;meatheads&lt;/span&gt; who were all stupid enough to believe that "trickle-down" bullshit &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;and&lt;/span&gt; rotten enough to buy into the "Me First/Greed is Good" &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_14"&gt;Reagonomics&lt;/span&gt; mantra. Fuck you all. And you can all fuck me too 'cause I'm already screwed---we all are.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The only peaceful way for US to get ourselves unscrewed is for a majority of us to vote against every incumbent politician &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_15"&gt;untill&lt;/span&gt; all those who are &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_16"&gt;incurragably&lt;/span&gt; corrupt are out of office and those &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_17"&gt;pathetically&lt;/span&gt; few who can be salvaged get the message: Represent We the People or We will fire your ass in the next election.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_18"&gt;Unfortunately&lt;/span&gt;, every time anybody raises their head above the crowd to call for this peaceful action to get us unscrewed, we get our head handed to us by the dreaded, "Your comment privileges have been revoked." Well Fuck you, DU and for those of you who don't know who DU is it's:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_19"&gt;democraticunderground&lt;/span&gt;.com&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"Democratic" my ass. "Democratic" includes Free Speech but not at DU oh no! Not when the "Free Speech" means voicing an idea that could &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_20"&gt;actually&lt;/span&gt; get US unscrewed if enough people heard it, heeded it and then acted peacefully by voting against every incumbent, no exceptions, until We the People get our government back.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;No hope.

Was I on-board? Hell, I jumped this train 20 years ago! Then, over the first few intervening days since then, I heard other voices...hope springs eternal! but alas, these &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;last&lt;/span&gt; few intervening days have been utterly mute---no more cries for voting every single incumbent out of office.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;That first little vibration spoke to me: "I am  your savior," it said, "I am the harbinger of Sympathetic Harmonics. Breathe on me and I will soon render asunder The Beast of &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_1"&gt;TRaP's&lt;/span&gt; control over the US Gov. The slightest steady breeze will compound my strength to render asunder. My power will grow &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_2"&gt;exponentially&lt;/span&gt;! I will bring down this exclusive bridge which connects &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_3"&gt;TRaP&lt;/span&gt; directly to your (so-called) &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_4"&gt;Representatives&lt;/span&gt; (to the Exclusion of all others)---both in Congress and the Executive. I am the Grim Reaper, and I am come for &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;you&lt;/span&gt;, Oligarchy. I come upon a whisper...whisper this, Nation: 'We the People Shall Vote Every Incumbent Out of Office.'&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"Nation! It is your only hope."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Thus spoke to me the harbinger of Sympathetic Harmonics, and then the vibration was suddenly silenced. Where &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_5"&gt;are't&lt;/span&gt; thou Stewart and Colbert?

I asked, whipping out my &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;&lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_3"&gt;Professional&lt;/span&gt; REPORTER'S Notebook&lt;/span&gt; and flipping it open to a fresh new page, then quickly grinding a fine point onto my &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;TICONDEROGA&lt;/span&gt; #2 pencil there at the pencil sharpener mounted on the wall by the front door. He said yes and I went on, "'&lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_4"&gt;Representatives&lt;/span&gt;', Is that with a little &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;r &lt;/span&gt;or a capital &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;R&lt;/span&gt;?" and when he said, "Capital &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;R&lt;/span&gt;," I sensed a really hot scoop coming on. "Go on," I said, "Tell us in your own words &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_5"&gt;wha&lt;/span&gt;-&lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_6"&gt;hoppen&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_7"&gt;to'em&lt;/span&gt;."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Now, in his own words, this is &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_8"&gt;wha&lt;/span&gt;-&lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_9"&gt;hoppen&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_10"&gt;to'em&lt;/span&gt;: "I dunno &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_11"&gt;wha&lt;/span&gt;-&lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_12"&gt;hoppen&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_13"&gt;to'em&lt;/span&gt;," he said, "they just vanished."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"Just vanished!" cried &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_14"&gt;Reo&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_15"&gt;Speedsquirrel&lt;/span&gt;, and &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_16"&gt;Three-toes&lt;/span&gt; Tony nodded, opining, "There's been a lot of that going around."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"Indeed," said Secret Attack Squirrel, adding, "In fact, it's worse than that: &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;True&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_17"&gt;Representatives&lt;/span&gt; have been extinct for some time now.

(*A disclaimer of fact: good news can be found, but none of it matters a whit beyond one or a few people directly connected to it.)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Our heart really was in it, really in that silly search for finding good news; but it took a conscious effort of (forcibly) blindly passing over all the bad news just to keep our spirits up, and the sap finally ran out of that pathetic little branch.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Hardly a day goes by that we do not find yet another example of this new (so-called) US president's incessant drive to continue, even &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;increase&lt;/span&gt; the &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_0"&gt;neoconian&lt;/span&gt; driving momentum that Ronny-baby &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_1"&gt;Reygun&lt;/span&gt; started and w.Bush amplified &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_2"&gt;exponentially&lt;/span&gt; toward making this country an absolute oligarchy.  Not a tyranny, nor a &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_3"&gt;dictatorship&lt;/span&gt;---We the People would not stand for that!---but an oligarchy.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Though the seeds were planted in the '80's (when &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_4"&gt;Raygun&lt;/span&gt; killed the Fairness Doctrine) Oligarchy actually took power in 2000 and now it's got us by the balls and with a knife across our collective throat to boot!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_5"&gt;SCOTUS&lt;/span&gt; is solidly &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_6"&gt;controlled&lt;/span&gt; by pro-business/anti-people &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_7"&gt;neocons&lt;/span&gt; and this new (so-called) president is hell-bent for adding to the &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_8"&gt;neocon&lt;/span&gt; imbalance while the corporate-controlled &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_9"&gt;MSM&lt;/span&gt; are hell-bent for greasing the skids toward that end.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The (so-called) democrats in congress can, do and will continue to &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_10"&gt;consistently&lt;/span&gt; vote against the best interests of We the People and in favor of the Rich and Powerful. With rare exception, virtually all &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_11"&gt;congressional&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_12"&gt;dem's&lt;/span&gt; are on board for this, but they're sneaky about it: they take turns voting against OUR best interests, just often enough to make sure that nothing in our best interests (i.e. when it bothers The Rich and Powerful...aka &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_13"&gt;TRaP&lt;/span&gt;). This way, their treachery is spread out over all of them, ergo it's not so obvious...almost completely invisible.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The only way to fix this is to vote every &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_14"&gt;incumbent&lt;/span&gt; out of office at every election. See it this way: Term-Limits imposed by We the People! It's the only way.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Ain't gonna happen though because the average American is a &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_15"&gt;meathead&lt;/span&gt;.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8196399-2879730514175636762?l=methinkstoomuch.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://methinkstoomuch.blogspot.com/feeds/2879730514175636762/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8196399&amp;postID=2879730514175636762&amp;isPopup=true' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8196399/posts/default/2879730514175636762'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8196399/posts/default/2879730514175636762'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://methinkstoomuch.blogspot.com/2009/07/week-wasted-all-that-time-wasted-in.html' title=''/><author><name>call me crazy</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8196399.post-3567701107257750819</id><published>2009-06-28T00:49:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2009-06-28T01:26:35.799-07:00</updated><title type='text'>So Dizzy...</title><content type='html'>:-?&lt;br /&gt;One day, invisible &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_0"&gt;WH&lt;/span&gt; insider say, "Big Chief Boo! drafting executive order for 'forever detention of people' whom him no like."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Next day, Boo! mouthpiece say, "Oh no &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_1"&gt;we'z&lt;/span&gt; not neither."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Same day, Boo! adds signing statement (to a duly-passed bill) that &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_2"&gt;sez&lt;/span&gt;, "Me no like these parts of new bill so me no obey these new laws.

After no little &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_7"&gt;deepthought&lt;/span&gt; on the matter, we conclude that any remaining semblance of sanity we may now &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_8"&gt;posses&lt;/span&gt; would, we hope, leave us almost instantly.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Yes, it's true. Having made a real "best-effort" to really imagine what it would really be like to be locked up all alone in a cell with no way out, we would (hope to) go stark-raving mad within 2 hours and probably reach a totally vegetative state before bedtime (that would be our last but best hope).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We used to imagine ourselves tougher than that---we saw ourselves with a steely mental will that would somehow get us through unscathed, even unchanged. Well it ain't there. The only way we could &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_9"&gt;survive&lt;/span&gt; physically would be to die mentally. The horror of retaining complete sanity and full cognizance while in an unjust, &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_10"&gt;unConstitutional&lt;/span&gt; confinement forever should be unbearable but, Would it? That's the really frightening aspect.

At first we were a huddled, silent mass of concern for the odds for his survival...betting was running 20 to 1 against when he suddenly shocked us all by suddenly regaining consciousness and asking for a tall bourbon..."neat, please"; then it was our concern over his sudden, generally-deemed unhealthy interest in revisiting the Potato Canon Rapid Deployment Squirrel Launcher (PC RDSL) question. Someone suggested that he take a little break by taking a little glide around the tree trunk and "unwind" a little. Well it turns out, &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;Sas's&lt;/span&gt; flattened face had an unanticipated effect on his aerodynamics and instead of sweeping in a gentle arch around to the left he flew headlong right into Mr. Brown's Freightliner conventional semi-trailer tractor/trailer long-haul combination rig. However, there's been an upside:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Owing to his much lower velocity (compared to hitting Mrs. White's house just a few feet from leaving the PC RDSL tube) &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;Sas&lt;/span&gt; was able to partially complete an evasive maneuver to the right just before striking the sleeper on Mr. Brown's truck, passenger side, and this glancing blow seemed to have straightened out his face...somewhat. And then, running to his rescue, Black Jack Brisco performed a small miracle by rapidly twirling &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;Sas&lt;/span&gt; around by the tail at a blurring RPM---the resultant centrifugal forces causing his face to return to normal (almost). Black Jack has been awarded the prestigious "SAS Quick-Thinking While Under Extreme Duress" award for his quick thinking while under extreme duress: BJ never would've got 'er done had he waited till &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;Sas&lt;/span&gt; came to again.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Meanwhile, all the MSM hoopla over Whacko Jacko's sudden demise is rapidly subsiding and, we can only hope, continue to subside...at least until it's restoked when Congress (presumably) will pass a Bill honoring that sick whacko and then, not to be outdone, Boobama will posthumously place a Presidential Medal of Honor on the casket just before it's paraded through the Cad-infested streets of L.A. on the roof of a stretched Hummer...probably a white one.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Finally, THIS JUST IN:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Secret Attack Squirrel has just convened and emergency SAS SSS (Super-Secret Session) and they are now in session, the question on the floor being, "What can we do about Boobama asserting his unconstitutional 'right' to indefinitely detain anyone he chooses, forever &amp;amp; ever if he so chooses, without any of the legal rights to legal recourse guaranteed by the Constitution of the USA. [Editor's note: we are not optimistic than &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;anything&lt;/span&gt; can be done and in any case, we're downright &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;certain&lt;/span&gt; that nothing &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;will&lt;/span&gt; be done, since we are no longer a Nation of Laws.]&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Crying at 11:00&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8196399-3976641957072554082?l=methinkstoomuch.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://methinkstoomuch.blogspot.com/feeds/3976641957072554082/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8196399&amp;postID=3976641957072554082&amp;isPopup=true' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8196399/posts/default/3976641957072554082'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8196399/posts/default/3976641957072554082'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://methinkstoomuch.blogspot.com/2009/06/follow-up-time.html' title='Follow-up time...'/><author><name>call me crazy</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8196399.post-3652940446982072098</id><published>2009-06-26T08:48:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2009-06-26T09:15:59.905-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Two Updates...</title><content type='html'>One: It seems there may have been one very positive upside to SAS's head-on with Mrs. White's house: the spackling we noticed surrounding his impact zone was first thought to be "gun-shot residue" but it now seems quite plausible that every one of those little black dots may actually be splattered flea-guts!

"Drop him, Drop him, see if it bounces!" Boy-o-boy Alice Cooper, have I got a lyrics line for you baby.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Meanwhile, our first (and &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_17"&gt;hopefully&lt;/span&gt; last) test-firing of the "Potato-Cannon Rapid Deployment Squirrel Launcher" did not go so well. Throwing good sense and all caution to the wind, Secret Attack Squirrel insisted that he be the first live projectile.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Bravely stepping (i.e. squirming &amp;amp; clawing his way) into the very breach of unimaginable danger (aided by some impolite back-end stuffing by Black Jack &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_18"&gt;Brisko&lt;/span&gt;) the launch tube was capped, its combustion chamber filled with a copious charge of propane, a match was applied to the fire-hole and...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;...just at that moment Little-Willie Billie, who was holding the launch-tube's muzzle in his role of Elevation Control Officer, suffered an &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_19"&gt;irresistible&lt;/span&gt; itch that just had to be scratched (we're &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_20"&gt;blaming&lt;/span&gt; a flea for this) and he dropped his end of the barrel just as &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_21"&gt;SAS&lt;/span&gt; left the launcher at an inconceivable velocity of what has been &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_22"&gt;guesstimated&lt;/span&gt; at somewhere north of several-hundred-thousand feet per second. &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_23"&gt;Unfortunately&lt;/span&gt;, this fired &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;&lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_24"&gt;Sas&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt; broad-side &amp;amp; point-blank into the side of a neighbor's house but lucky for him, it was a slightly glancing blow, so he &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_25"&gt;ricocheted&lt;/span&gt; harmlessly and splashed-down safely in a nearby fishpond...he was soon revived but, I fear, he will forever have an exceedingly flat face---which is not very becoming to any squirrel, especially a Super-Hero Flying Squirrel! Also, he's been acting rather strange lately, walking it little circles and mumbling something about moving Mrs. White's house twelve giant squirrel-hops to the right, whatever that means.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We'll get back to yuh later.&lt;br /&gt;...&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8196399-194821768452036553?l=methinkstoomuch.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://methinkstoomuch.blogspot.com/feeds/194821768452036553/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8196399&amp;postID=194821768452036553&amp;isPopup=true' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8196399/posts/default/194821768452036553'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8196399/posts/default/194821768452036553'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://methinkstoomuch.blogspot.com/2009/06/rip-whacko-jacko.html' title='RIP Whacko Jacko'/><author><name>call me crazy</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8196399.post-5947219551880095150</id><published>2009-06-20T09:08:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2009-06-20T09:34:30.600-07:00</updated><title type='text'>UnTitled</title><content type='html'>Secret Attack Squirrel can't seem to erase (Boo!'s) head spook at the CIA, i.e. Lyin Paeonetta, from his radar screen. Secret has tried Ajax, a Brillo pad, even White-out...all to no avail. I've suggested covering the entire screen with tin foil but that material is in short supply here, owing to the fact that all of us here at SAS G-HQ use the stuff for making our crash helmets. Admittedly, our helmets are rather small; but dumpster-diving and the Trash-can Tracking Team have yet to yield even one single full roll, thus we are reduced to resuing used tin foil from baked taters, roasts &amp;amp; etc. Speaking of taters:...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;On the new high-tech'-front, Rocket Reo Speedsquirrel is currently developing a new Rapid Deployment Launch system for reaching flying-squirrel cruising altitudes in a matter of milli-seconds. Rocket pilfered the spec's for something called a "potato cannon" and he claims it can be easily adapted for launching flying squirrels. The first operational test is only awaiting the location and aquisition of a propane torch and a Bic lighter. Discarded Bic's are easy to find but they rarely light, so they generally must be stolen from [nearby] humans at great personal risk to our opperatives' personal safety; propane torches are problematic 'cause they're so damn hard to carry while climbing a tree.

So why even blog? Because we like talking to ourselves, that's why. Plus we have rather thin skin that's easily punctured by criticism and just one pointed negative comment would cause us to explode like an overinflated balloon. &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;BANG!&lt;/span&gt; (We self-inflict enough injuries on ourselves all on our own without inviting attacks from outsiders.)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Furthermore, it does no good preaching to the choir on political issues; nor can conservatives ever be reached/affected by "the facts", sound reasoning or by eloquently waxing philosophic, which is half of what we do here, for instance:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We the People, i.e. the US, has gotten too big &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;not&lt;/span&gt; to fail. It's called "the economics of scale"...just look at G.M. and for that matter, the now-extinct giant dinosaurs. Here's how it works: if you double the size of anything, it's weight also doubles but the tensile strength of its superstructure's components remain the same, which is why there is a practical limit to how tall tall buildings can be built. Okay, I guess the term "economy of scale" does not apply here, but we liked the sound of it.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A federal government for a nation can be considered &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;the&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;main &lt;/span&gt;superstructure  component and the "power" needed to make things run is its gross weight...we are long past the point where US "power" needs got so great that the government (politicians) can no longer resist against it, so now they are all bent every bit as crooked as Black Jack Brisco's tail, which is a terrible thing to behold.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;There is no remedy, although there is a solution: split the country into two. After conferring with the other SAS 24/7ers we have reached a consensus: the Mississippi River---everything east becomes the East United States vs the West United States.&lt;br /&gt;This is a brilliant concept, sez I.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8196399-8023350683355196586?l=methinkstoomuch.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://methinkstoomuch.blogspot.com/feeds/8023350683355196586/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8196399&amp;postID=8023350683355196586&amp;isPopup=true' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8196399/posts/default/8023350683355196586'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8196399/posts/default/8023350683355196586'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://methinkstoomuch.blogspot.com/2009/06/bill-maher-gets-it.html' title='Bill Maher gets it.'/><author><name>call me crazy</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8196399.post-1909845610205936672</id><published>2009-06-19T09:56:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2009-06-19T10:04:55.411-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Rats...</title><content type='html'>...and a bummer: No assembly required.

Pushing caution to the limits, we stayed away for 48 hours, just to be on the safe side.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But turns out Black Jack was quite philosophic about the whole affair because it was his playing the same prank on Three-toes Tony two years ago that lead to the defining condition which precipitated Tony's nickname. Rumor has it that Black Jack merely opined, "Well, what goes around comes around. Tony was just &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_4"&gt;gettin&lt;/span&gt;' even, that's all." (&lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_5"&gt;All's&lt;/span&gt; well that ends well.)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Sadly, the same can not be said for D.C.

So far, there has been nothing to write home about in terms of a safe return for this country back to a nation of laws, any semblance of Equal Justice for all and/or single-payer health care, which reminds me:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Whenever a congressperson wails about how awful it would be for the whole US population to have to suffer under a "government run" health care plan we should merely make this statement to his/her face: "Well if it's good enough for you, it's good enough for me. I'll take it." And ask, "If it's so gawd-awful bad, Why are you still using it instead of buying your own [for-profit insurance company] coverage with your own &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_9"&gt;gawddamn&lt;/span&gt; money?"

We further assumed that our readers would presume that while most of us are flying squirrels, others of the non-flying variety would be considered...still good, so far. Where we fell short was failing to note that non-flying squirrels must, at the very least, be able to jump small children in a single bound.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Well, during testing, one candidate utterly failed to clear the neighbor's 3-year old toddler (in a single bound) and ergo face-planted at high velocity into our test-hurdle's snotty little mug. Then it seems the little ankle-biter instantly surmised that our ill-fated &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_2"&gt;testee&lt;/span&gt; was after his &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_3"&gt;binky&lt;/span&gt; and all hell broke loose...a detailed description of the ensuing skirmish is not fit to print.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The little bugger-eater's giant &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_4"&gt;humanbean&lt;/span&gt; father (aka Mr. Greene) then joined the battle forthwith and poor little Larry &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_5"&gt;Leafhopper&lt;/span&gt; was last seen sailing over a nearby garage screaming in terror and presumably in deep dismay and he has not been seen since. Sadly, relations with Mr. Greene have been strained ever since.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_6"&gt;SAS&lt;/span&gt; Directive #357: Stay clear of the Greene house, &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_7"&gt;at&lt;/span&gt; all costs, till further notice.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We have attempted to smooth things over with Mr. Greene by leaving gifts on his front porch, but he scorns them all and we have now learned that he is a crack-shot with a B.B. gun, which precipitates the following: WANTED: Surgical tweezers suitable for the removal of B.B. pellets from squirrel's pelt; also, a bottle of iodine would be much appreciated.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Black Jack &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_8"&gt;Brisco&lt;/span&gt; offers this recommendation: "You (i.e. the &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_9"&gt;SAS&lt;/span&gt; crew) would be well served to leave your nutty little gifts in a conspicuous basket, so that Mr. Greene doesn't step on them unawares and fall on his ass every time he steps outside his front door. Indeed I postulate that he may well suspect that you're leaving those well-burnished walnuts to serve as crude booby traps.

I done got elected, fool! &amp;amp; I got-duh &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_28"&gt;powah&lt;/span&gt; now, baby!"&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Too bad, &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_29"&gt;soo&lt;/span&gt; sad, I voted for this sorry piece of crap.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;An APOLOGY times a million is now in order, to all my brothers &amp;amp; &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_30"&gt;sistas&lt;/span&gt; who ain't "white" like me (and &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_31"&gt;george&lt;/span&gt; w bush) &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;and&lt;/span&gt; who don't know me. I laid on that black-rap thing heavy 'cause I am so &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_32"&gt;gawddamn&lt;/span&gt;-awful pissed off (more on this later*). It seems to me that a non-"white" &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_33"&gt;prez&lt;/span&gt;, of all people, would be the first to take a flame-thrower to that mighty wall of &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_34"&gt;Bushit&lt;/span&gt; crap that Bush/Cheney stacked up over the last 8 years but no, &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_35"&gt;Obama's&lt;/span&gt; just building it higher &amp;amp; making it thicker and the Constitution of the United States of America is buried somewhere underneath, suffocating as I write this.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;*The rap-thing. Good &amp;amp; bad comes in all colors and frankly, "&lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_36"&gt;nigguh&lt;/span&gt;" rap is a banner for Bad character. &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_37"&gt;Whitie&lt;/span&gt; gets rapped for saying "&lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_38"&gt;nigguh&lt;/span&gt;" but that's not where I''m coming from; I'm coming from that place where Blacks use the term on one of your/their/our own. It's an ugly thing...not that &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;word&lt;/span&gt;, but what that word has come to mean; and what &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;using&lt;/span&gt; it means. It's ugly, and I wanted to get just as ugly as I could when blogging just now about this "Mr. President", Mr. &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_39"&gt;Barak&lt;/span&gt; Obama.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;He's not as as bad as w, not by a long shot...yet. But how &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_40"&gt;far's&lt;/span&gt; he gonna go? He's keeping all the bad shit w started plus adding more to it almost every day. He plays us along with high words, then sneaks around the corner to confer with fellow &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_41"&gt;conspirators&lt;/span&gt;(?) who We the People are not allowed to know...if there's nothing dirty going on back there then, Why hide their faces? Hey Mr. &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_42"&gt;Prez&lt;/span&gt;, Why don't you want We the People [who elected you] to know who's got your ear? What's going on back there? One thing's for sure: if it was on the up-&amp;amp;-up you wouldn't be hiding them from U.S.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I'm really sorry about this, but I gonna "publish" it anyway 'cause it needs to be said.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;P.S. &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_43"&gt;WTF&lt;/span&gt; are we into &amp;amp; how we gonna get out of it?&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8196399-4608391431004900726?l=methinkstoomuch.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://methinkstoomuch.blogspot.com/feeds/4608391431004900726/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8196399&amp;postID=4608391431004900726&amp;isPopup=true' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8196399/posts/default/4608391431004900726'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8196399/posts/default/4608391431004900726'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://methinkstoomuch.blogspot.com/2009/06/error-of-omission-too-late.html' title='An Error of Omission Too Late:'/><author><name>call me crazy</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8196399.post-7431740496252190993</id><published>2009-06-16T05:52:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2009-06-16T06:26:58.124-07:00</updated><title type='text'>The Match Game</title><content type='html'>[:]&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We have learned the hard way that ye old trick of putting a match between the toes of a sleeping friend and then lighting it can be hazardous to your health. Here's the skinny:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Last night's G-HQ beer binge was brought to a screeching &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_0"&gt;disassemble&lt;/span&gt; when Three-toes Tony slipped a wooden kitchen match between the toes of a slumbering Black Jack &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_1"&gt;Brisko&lt;/span&gt;, lit it &amp;amp; scurried aside to watch some highly anticipated comical results...but Black Jack was not much amused  and in fact, he came totally unglued and went totally ballistic on all of us. One would never think that such an old and battered tomcat, one-eyed and gimpy to boot, could move so fast. Nobody escaped without a scratch (there were 12 of us in the hanger) and two are now missing large swatches of fur, plus poor Ollie &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_2"&gt;Longjumper's&lt;/span&gt; once-magnificent tail has been reduced to a 2" stump--his flying days are over.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;To make matters worse, once we got Black Jack settled down n the First Aid loft we learned (again, the hard way) that immersing a second-degree burn into a shot-glass of rubbing &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_3"&gt;alcohol&lt;/span&gt; is ill-advised, especially when the fur surrounding the injured area is still smouldering at a temperature exceeding the combustion point of pure &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_4"&gt;alcohol&lt;/span&gt;. Not a pretty sight, and some of us may have suffered &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_5"&gt;permanent&lt;/span&gt; hearing loss. But none of us were otherwise injured owing to Secret Attack Squirrel's sagacious expediency of at first securing Black Jack to the E.R. table (with electrical tape and rubber bands) before beginning treatment.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Black Jack &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_6"&gt;Brisco&lt;/span&gt; is now resting comfortably, thanks to Wally One-eye's brilliant quickness at knocking him over the head with 40 oz. bottle of Colt .45.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Uh oh, he's coming around now &amp;amp; I'm out-a here!&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8196399-7431740496252190993?l=methinkstoomuch.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://methinkstoomuch.blogspot.com/feeds/7431740496252190993/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8196399&amp;postID=7431740496252190993&amp;isPopup=true' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8196399/posts/default/7431740496252190993'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8196399/posts/default/7431740496252190993'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://methinkstoomuch.blogspot.com/2009/06/match-game.html' title='The Match Game'/><author><name>call me crazy</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8196399.post-9091467008627014928</id><published>2009-06-15T13:16:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2009-06-15T14:03:28.552-07:00</updated><title type='text'>It's Deep Bow time.</title><content type='html'>Yes boys &amp;amp; girls it's true: Secret Attack Squirrel is taking a much-deserved &amp;amp; way-overdue deep bow right now, even as this reporter reports it.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;What's the auspicious occasion for this auspicious event? Ha! It's been publicly intimated by a high-ranker in a high place in a low-spot in Maryland in just barely not uncertain terms that the evil x-&lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_0"&gt;warlard&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_1"&gt;veeper&lt;/span&gt; Dicker &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_2"&gt;Cheaney&lt;/span&gt; actually &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;wants&lt;/span&gt; US to be attacked just to prove that he's &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_3"&gt;better'n&lt;/span&gt; Boo.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Of course, &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_4"&gt;Sas&lt;/span&gt; has been saying all along that the worst-of-the-worst &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_5"&gt;neocons&lt;/span&gt; are and have long been all in favor of &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_6"&gt;terrierist&lt;/span&gt; attacks on US because this foments fear--&lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;Fear&lt;/span&gt; being a fantastically powerful weapon which only they, the evil &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_7"&gt;neocons&lt;/span&gt;, know how to use to utmost efficiency. Indeed, we here at &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_8"&gt;SAS&lt;/span&gt; Global HQ recall one &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_9"&gt;truly&lt;/span&gt; icky-evil &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_10"&gt;necon&lt;/span&gt; once-upon-a-time actually saying (about 9-11) that, "...sometimes fate hands you a &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_11"&gt;truly&lt;/span&gt; wonderful gift."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It goes without saying that everyone here on &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;&lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_12"&gt;Sas's&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt; squad was outraged by that &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_13"&gt;outrageous&lt;/span&gt; remark!,,,and &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_14"&gt;double&lt;/span&gt;y so when absolutely nobody with a pulpit called for that dirty rotten bastard to be boiled in camel spit until his eyes popped out of their greasy, wicked little orbits. Why, it was so bad that our mighty-brave Secret Attack Squirrel swooned and lay prostrate beneath the corner-cabinet &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_15"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;for many hours and then, after reviving, babbled &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_16"&gt;incoherently&lt;/span&gt; for two days running. This reporter and &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;&lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_17"&gt;Sas's&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt; whole EMT (Emergency Management Team) were at a loss what to do, which reminds us...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We're still a little short of paws here at &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_18"&gt;SAS&lt;/span&gt; G-HQ because many of &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;&lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_19"&gt;Sas's&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt; original crew members have not returned from that fateful &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_20"&gt;fartbomb&lt;/span&gt; detonation of over three years past and they are presumed either &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_21"&gt;irretrievably&lt;/span&gt; lost, dead, deranged, or possibly devolved back to their natural state of &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_22"&gt;squirrely&lt;/span&gt; and not very smart wildness...plus we suspect on fairly solid grounds that at least one may have actually been blasted completely out of Earth's orbit...that &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;was&lt;/span&gt; one hell of a &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_23"&gt;fartbomb&lt;/span&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;What we're getting at: WANTED: A few brave squirrels to join Secret Attack Squirrel's Secret Team of Secret Squirrels, aka the &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_24"&gt;SAS&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_25"&gt;STSS&lt;/span&gt;.

So I'll just attempt a brief sketch.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;First, two comments:&lt;br /&gt;1) We were (and still are) relieved beyond words that &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_0"&gt;Bushco&lt;/span&gt; started no new wars, nor did W impose martial law in order to keep himself in power beyond the end of his second term;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;2) we were guardedly optimistic that Pres. Obama would wield the newly-recovered Democrats' double-edged majority-axe in Congress to restore the US to a nation of law...I say "guardedly" optimistic because we were suspicious of Obama from the git-go.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Turns out our suspicions are not only confirmed (by our new president's persistent misbehavior) but we are deeply chagrined to find that the reality is far worse than our greatest fears had ever conceived, even in our most cynical of moments.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;To use the broadest brush available, here goes:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;B.O. has fouled himself (and continues to) by spiking his administration, cabinet and "executive appointments" with conservatives, Blue-dogs and out-right, in-your-face Republicans. Sick.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;At virtually every turn, B.O. ignores his oath of office by failing to support and defend the Constitution of the United States of America; nor does he enforce its laws...only selectively does he do so.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Most grievously, B.O. has assumed for himself the &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_1"&gt;Bushco&lt;/span&gt; mantle of  unchecked secrecy and unlawful powers--in particular, he now holds certain &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_2"&gt;individuals&lt;/span&gt; above the law, i.e. his &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_3"&gt;blantent&lt;/span&gt; determination to block investigations into manifold crimes which were clearly [not arguably] committed by the previous administration; furthermore, to have &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_4"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;stated w/o any qualifiers &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_5"&gt;whatso&lt;/span&gt;ever than no one from the previous administration will ever be prosecuted by his &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_6"&gt;DoJ&lt;/span&gt; for crimes committed while they were in office. THIS IS IN DIRECT CONTRADICTION TO HIS OATH OF OFFICE!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Meanwhile, B.O. wants to close &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_7"&gt;Gitmo&lt;/span&gt; while keeping open other "black" prisons in Iraq and Afghanistan where there is no rule of law, no accountability. B.O. continues with "extreme rendition", disappearing people, unwarranted wiretaps and worst of all, he maintains for himself the unconstitutional power to suspend &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_8"&gt;the right of habeas&lt;/span&gt; corpus at his will and on his word alone.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Another reeking, &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_9"&gt;un-emptied&lt;/span&gt; basket of &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_10"&gt;WH&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_11"&gt;bushit&lt;/span&gt; is B.O.'s continuation of the &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_12"&gt;Bushco&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_13"&gt;DoJ&lt;/span&gt; policy of selectively &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_14"&gt;targeting&lt;/span&gt; anyone who does not toe the conservative line while giving free passes to those who do. Two prominent names come to mind to illustrate this: &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_15"&gt;Don Seigleman&lt;/span&gt;, and that congressman from Alaska, What's his name? It'll come to me...and I may have to correct the "&lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_16"&gt;Seigleman&lt;/span&gt;" name, as my mind is badly muddled this morning.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The list goes on and on and on, but we've put in enough already to provide the gist of why we now believe that the Obama presidency will deliver the final blow which will utterly destroy the our Constitution by coninuing the Bushco legacy of seeding the Supreme and Federal courst and his DoJ with neocons and holding certain people above the law while selectively targeting others.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This president is guitly of war crimes (after the fact) by letting known perp's off and he is currently committing them himself, as outlined above.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;There is remedy available, but our Congress is just as corrupt as this president(not) is.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And this is just the beginning (of the end).&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8196399-1344260044910927383?l=methinkstoomuch.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://methinkstoomuch.blogspot.com/feeds/1344260044910927383/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8196399&amp;postID=1344260044910927383&amp;isPopup=true' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8196399/posts/default/1344260044910927383'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8196399/posts/default/1344260044910927383'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://methinkstoomuch.blogspot.com/2009/06/can-i-ever-get-caught-up.html' title='Can I ever get caught up?'/><author><name>call me crazy</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8196399.post-8152893840933504277</id><published>2009-06-14T00:19:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2009-06-14T01:04:37.893-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Continued...</title><content type='html'>As you may remember from our last episode, Secret Attack Squirrel had just returned mysteriously from his mysterious disappearance of over three years past and he was just graciously granting an impromptu interview when the Intruder Alert Alarm sounded and our furry little super-hero shot out of this tree like a rifle bullet. Turns out it was Sas's old nemesis-turned-friend Black Jack Brisko returning from his own self-imposed sojourn into a self-imposed news blackout. He (Black Jack) now has a limp.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I have asked Mr. Brisko if he would like to take the keyboard and tell us in his own words about his long absence. Here we go...take it away, Black Jack Brisko:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Well, after Secret turned in his cape and disbanded his merry band of flying, madcap tree-hoppers, I tried to hold this woody blogfort all by myself but I took a nasty fall on the Saturday before Easter Sunday of ought-six &amp;amp; my left-back heel was badly crushed...ergo my tree-climbing days were over, or so I thought.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I don't know who this character is who I found in Secret Attack Squirrel's Global Headquarters, but he's a cute little duffer and he at first thought I was going to eat him--understandable, since I'm a rather large cat (albeit past my prime and gimpy) and he's rather small, even for a squirrel. Oh, he says this is &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;his&lt;/span&gt; blog. Oooo-kay, I'll be brief.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I've broken many bones in my life and beleive me, until you've crushed a heel you know nothing about pain. I was fully disabled for over six months, nearly starved, and during that time I was unable to even look at a tree, let alone climb one. It's taken me this long to even attempt this venerable old dogwood &amp;amp; I wouldn't have chanced it now but for seeing ol' Secret scurrying around up here yesterday, so here I am. I see Secret's not here right now. So what brings him back, anyway?...here, you take the keyboard.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Me again, but I'm signing off to cop a chat with Black Jack.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8196399-8152893840933504277?l=methinkstoomuch.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://methinkstoomuch.blogspot.com/feeds/8152893840933504277/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8196399&amp;postID=8152893840933504277&amp;isPopup=true' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8196399/posts/default/8152893840933504277'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8196399/posts/default/8152893840933504277'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://methinkstoomuch.blogspot.com/2009/06/continued.html' title='Continued...'/><author><name>call me crazy</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8196399.post-4660707560523410331</id><published>2009-06-13T08:15:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2009-06-13T08:38:37.581-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Secret Attack Squirrel is Bact!</title><content type='html'>Where's SAS been?

But knowing that nothing can be made perfect, they warned US...warned US about the dangers of "one party rule" and yet here we are.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And they even gave US two safeguards against the danger: a free press coupled to the right to vote, thus giving "we the governed" the power to throw down a one party rule should it ever get going &amp;amp; going wrong...and it's gone wrong now.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;1) "Free Press" is and always was a myth, and our Founding Fathers knew it: "A 'free press' is only free for those who own the presses." (I wish I could credit this statement to its author, but I can't recall who he was.) In their wisdom, the Founding Fathers created Constitutional protections against any One Party controlling all the presses (and now over 200 years later, radio &amp; TV &amp;amp; the internet) but those protections have been redacted from the Constitution via the powers of One Party Rule.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;2) The Right to Vote is meaningless when One Party controls access to the polls AND the process of counting those votes. We are there now. Beginning with the 2000 elections, the One Party has been systematically and agressively corrupting the vote by hook &amp; by crook and by a plethorea of dirty (and oft' time illegal) tricks.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The coming results:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;a) this November, most voters will go to the polls ill informed, mis-informed, and misled (by media all controlled by One Party) into a state of near-panic &amp;amp; fear by an "October Surprise"...which will likely come before October just to avoid the "October Surprise" label. Even so, the One Party has become such a rancid pile Bushit that there will still be enough votes cast against them to derail them...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;b) sadly, the One Party has the power to mis-count those votes and thus keep for themselves the power of One Party Rule. And given another two years of One Party Rule/power, they will gain control over so much of the voting process that the 2008 elections will me a mere circus of pure, faked folly.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Conclusion: Our last-chance Constitutional Right for stopping a tyrant from taking over was wisely given US by the Founding Fathers: We the Governed have the Constitutional Right to THROW the bastards out of office!...no election required.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Let US pray it doesn't come to that (but we fear it may).&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8196399-114450042880623652?l=methinkstoomuch.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://methinkstoomuch.blogspot.com/feeds/114450042880623652/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8196399&amp;postID=114450042880623652&amp;isPopup=true' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8196399/posts/default/114450042880623652'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8196399/posts/default/114450042880623652'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://methinkstoomuch.blogspot.com/2006/04/its-too-laaate-baby.html' title='It&apos;s too laaate baby...'/><author><name>call me crazy</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8196399.post-114440740472669044</id><published>2006-04-07T03:56:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2006-04-07T03:56:44.823-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Brand'em, sez I,</title><content type='html'>&lt;span style="text-decoration: underline;"&gt;For being totally fucking un-believably stupid!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;After Bushco's Plamegate trigger-man (Scooter "the snitch-eroo" Libby) rolled on W and fingered Little Boss Bush for being THE Valerie P.

Duh."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;3) Their eyeballs are so close together they look like one double-yoked rotten egg stuck to the forehead.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;4) They have weak jaws and buck-toothed overbites so extreme you could park a Nazi U-boat underneath...length-wise.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;5) They have to take their shoes off to count to three, which they never do because...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;6) They haven't taken their shoes off since kindergarten 'cause they don't know how to re-tie them...nor do their degenerate parents.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Recommended remedies for these 36%ers:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;a) They should be sterilized.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;b) They should have their voting rights ended (for life).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;c) They should be banded twice: S (for stupid) on one cheek; Nazi swastika on the other side.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;d) They should be rendered to Iraq, stripped naked &amp; dumped in the desert with Ann Coulter &amp;amp; Rush Limpbaugh to co-MC the event.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;e) They should be suddamnized by Hussein.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Even so, they'd be getting off light for all the deaths &amp;amp; suffering they have caused and are allowing to continue.&lt;br /&gt;!&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8196399-114440740472669044?l=methinkstoomuch.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://methinkstoomuch.blogspot.com/feeds/114440740472669044/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8196399&amp;postID=114440740472669044&amp;isPopup=true' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8196399/posts/default/114440740472669044'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8196399/posts/default/114440740472669044'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://methinkstoomuch.blogspot.com/2006/04/brandem-sez-i.html' title='Brand&apos;em, sez I,'/><author><name>call me crazy</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8196399.post-114406210404057098</id><published>2006-04-03T04:01:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2006-04-03T04:01:46.506-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Iran Attack: A Win-Win War...</title><content type='html'>&lt;span style="text-decoration: underline;"&gt;FOR BUSH AND THE GOP&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;By attacking Iran just before this Nov's elections, Jane &amp; Joe American Meathead will keep the evil, greedy lying bastards (and bitchs) Republicans in power---because Jane &amp;amp; Joe are so gawdamn stupid: Win #1 for Bush &amp; the GOP.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This attack will then incite GLOBAL terrorist attacks against Americans, and thus Jane &amp;amp; Joe American Meathead (who are, by nature, cowards) will be in an increased and persistant state of mindless terror and perfectly willing to concede all the Constitutional rights of ALL Americans.

Now this: the (minimalist) shared National conscience has been sitting on the Downing Street Memo(Minutes) and countless other proofs that Bush lied/lies...repeatedly...for so long that now, the latest meeting-minutes/memo proof that W lied US into illegally attacking Iraq brings this nominal sentiment: "Yeh? So? What's new?" (Shrug &amp;amp; heavy sigh on the side.) Jane &amp; Joe American Meathead are not surprised, not concerned, not outraged...They're used to this Bushit.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;2) It's curious that the one &amp;amp; only 9/11 (would-be) attacker who was caught in time to stop him (Moussaoui) was the one who's mission was to fly a plane into the W-House. The W-House? Hum. That's verrrry interesting. What are the odds W's fascist police would only catch the one guy who was a threat to the smirking chimp and his Attack Iraq Cabal? One in Five, you say? How fortuitous for the cowardly little retard and his evil flying monkies. Of course, just to be safe, all the real fascist targets managed to be out of town on 9/11...just in case Moussaoui had an unidentified second-string back-up killer on the bench to complete the W-House mission.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Verrry interesting, and way over the head of Jane &amp;amp; Joe American Meatheads' utter stupidity.&lt;br /&gt;!&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8196399-114354006018473593?l=methinkstoomuch.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://methinkstoomuch.blogspot.com/feeds/114354006018473593/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8196399&amp;postID=114354006018473593&amp;isPopup=true' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8196399/posts/default/114354006018473593'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8196399/posts/default/114354006018473593'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://methinkstoomuch.blogspot.com/2006/03/two-fer-tuesday.html' title='Two-fer Tuesday...'/><author><name>call me crazy</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8196399.post-114346753429658405</id><published>2006-03-27T05:52:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2006-03-27T05:52:15.146-08:00</updated><title type='text'>Now don't this beat all...</title><content type='html'>&lt;span style="text-decoration: underline;"&gt;!!!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;ANOTHER (once-secret) memo has surfaced proving that W's illegal Iraq war was started by W and Toni "the lap dog" Blair in violation of international law.

He sometimes "attaches" with an e-mail to me, "Submitted for you approval," or "Could you proof this really quick?"...(with full knowledge that spelling ain't a strong point for any old one-eyed broke-tailed tomcat like me).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;These attachments are becoming evermore rare, as "buddy" has learned that such requests (for approval/proofing) always open the back door to merciless attacks from this ornery old half-fossilized coot who's tasted blood &amp;amp; likes it.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;To the point: one of my triad of "most-made mistakes by writers" is "too windy; excessive wordiness".&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Well I just skimmed some of the blogs that've been judged "best" for one thing or another (not by me) and is seems that windy, excessive wordiness is one thing all the winners have in common... Six words when one will do; ten sentences when one will do; a dozen paragraphs when one will do etc etc.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The problem: Who duh fuck has the time, patience, and/or infinite attention-span to wade thru' 1,000 words in order to get a handle on a 100-word assertion? Not me! In my mind: Word Count Don't Count. Not so in bloggoland, I guess.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Dozen't matter. I must re-locate the closing line in a letter from one 18th century writer (an American Founder) to a friend, wherein he finished with, "Sorry this letter is so lengthy, but I don't have time to shorten it." (So I can give credit where credit it due.)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;That pretty much sez it all, Don't it?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;GET TO THE POINT &amp;amp; STOP. PERIOD. END OF SENTENCE.

I am left with this clear belief: W Bush is the most un-American, anti-Constitutional, lawless, dispicable and criminal president one can ever imagine, let alone envision in the flesh.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It was like being in a dark, windowless room &amp; suddenly the lights are switched on. Oh yeah, in the darkness I could hear, feel and smell the rot and the danger around US; but now I see outright the face of this evil that's bound for America's Constitutional ruination, and it is the face of W. Bush.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If every American (who can vote) could be induced to read what I have now read, only un-American citizens who are anti-Constitutional would allow this foul man to stay in office any longer. I do now absolutely believe the reports that W has called the Consutution of the USA, "...just a Goddamn piece of paper."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But like I said at the top: "A little knowledge is a dangerous thing." I have a long way to go before being certain beyond any doubt that I fully understand every angle of the Constitution.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But I am certain about this beyond any doubt:  Everything I have written (here and elsewhere) is Constitutionally Protected Free Speech and anyone  who would take any steps against me should be arrested and tried for Sedition of the Constitution of the USA and when  found guilty, a Nazi Swastika shall be branded into their forehead before further sentence is carried out: ie Life in Prison (for starters).&lt;br /&gt;!&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8196399-114320643079619358?l=methinkstoomuch.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://methinkstoomuch.blogspot.com/feeds/114320643079619358/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8196399&amp;postID=114320643079619358&amp;isPopup=true' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8196399/posts/default/114320643079619358'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8196399/posts/default/114320643079619358'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://methinkstoomuch.blogspot.com/2006/03/little-knowledge.html' title='A little knowledge...'/><author><name>call me crazy</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8196399.post-114302616273781665</id><published>2006-03-22T03:16:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2006-03-22T03:16:02.856-08:00</updated><title type='text'>Bush Admits he Can't Fix What he Broke!</title><content type='html'>!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="text-decoration: underline;"&gt;Easier than reading between the lines...&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The chimp-in-chief finally said it, he finally confessed to John Q.

But alas, once again, human beans far smarter than this broken down old fart of a cat totally fucking missed the totally fucking obvious!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Anyhow, W's admission that HE can't fixed what he broke may be an indication that the wittow-boy's bubble has been pricked and the air's leaking out. This may be the much anticipated tipping-point that starts Bush slip-sliding toward an inevitable loss of control and continence in a public venue, wherein he'll self-expose himself for what he is: a screw-up, a lying idiot, at fault for everything, and incompetent.&lt;br /&gt;!&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8196399-114302616273781665?l=methinkstoomuch.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://methinkstoomuch.blogspot.com/feeds/114302616273781665/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8196399&amp;postID=114302616273781665&amp;isPopup=true' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8196399/posts/default/114302616273781665'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8196399/posts/default/114302616273781665'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://methinkstoomuch.blogspot.com/2006/03/bush-admits-he-cant-fix-what-he-broke.html' title='Bush Admits he Can&apos;t Fix What he Broke!'/><author><name>call me crazy</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8196399.post-114234227913458491</id><published>2006-03-14T05:17:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2006-03-14T05:17:59.206-08:00</updated><title type='text'>I screwed up...</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://methinkstoomuch.blogspot.com/"&gt;Pardon the spell-oh's!....I'm only seeing red right now.&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Frist must be channeling this blog; he just didn't hit his grand-slam in the World Series of House Votes:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Frist calls a Quickie-vote on Finegold's, "Censure the Scum-bag Smirking-chimp Traitor Shit-for-brains prez-NOT" bill and kills it abortion-style...so now it's old news &amp; the Repugs/DINOs will have it buried before this Nov's elections.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Stage II--The World Serious: call another quickie-vote on Wimpeachment hearings and THAT little bother will be buried, too.

Food, clothing, shelter, medical care---all Luxuries reserved for those who are either born as deserving heirs of the Necessary Luxuries of life, or paid to those who are not too lazy to work for them; everyone else?...well that's too bad: aristocrats see no aspects to Life such as good luck/bad luck or the one-sided unfairness of greed and graft, nor the slings and arrows of outragous discrimination.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Barb Bush exposed this mindset perfectly when observing that the Havenots displaced by Katrina into Huston had never before had it so good: they had been lifted up by that hurricane and dropped into a lap of (relative) Luxury. A clear-cut case of Doublethink: in the aristicrat's mind, every Luxury they (the rich) enjoy is a Necessity; every Necessity Havenots lack is a Luxury to them. Aristrocrats may well call this "relativity" and let it go at that.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;One wonders how these aristcrats will fit through the eye of a needle come Reckoning Day, or if they will even be asked to do so. We ask this question because we recognize and (begrudgingly) accept Life's Truth that Life ain't fair; we must then admit to the real possibility that maybe Death ain't fair either---which would be a bitter and poisonous icing on the cruel and inedible cake of a Havenot's life of discomforture due to neediness...and it shall come as no surprise to this old humbug, if that's how it works out.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;God forgive me for hoping Death will be Fair...to aristocrats and Havenots alike.&lt;br /&gt;!&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8196399-114211409416415697?l=methinkstoomuch.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://methinkstoomuch.blogspot.com/feeds/114211409416415697/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8196399&amp;postID=114211409416415697&amp;isPopup=true' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8196399/posts/default/114211409416415697'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8196399/posts/default/114211409416415697'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://methinkstoomuch.blogspot.com/2006/03/waxing-philositics.html' title='Waxing philositics...'/><author><name>call me crazy</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8196399.post-114199426653762367</id><published>2006-03-10T04:37:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2006-03-10T04:37:46.613-08:00</updated><title type='text'>Dumbdee dumb dumb DUMB!</title><content type='html'>&lt;span style="text-decoration: underline;"&gt;DEMOCRACY IN THE USA IS DEAD&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Tho' abundandly aware of the "LOL" thing, I despise it...and thus this ol' cat uses "Ah Ha Ha Ha Ha!"---which is now applied to all those in bloggoland's leftern hemisphere who have crowed (many are crowing still) about how W was beaten out of making his US ports deal with those rag-heads over at DPW, because...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Can anyone say "Halliburtan"?

Ergo I ask:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;HOW STUPID CAN STUPID GET?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Clearly: A whole lot stupidder that I thought! Now that a majority has finally---after almost three years of feebly pondering the bold-faced facts of undeniable reality---a majority has finally found themselves stunned with the blatantly obvious facts of that reality: Bush lied US into attacking Iraq, attacking Iraq was a HUGE mistake, and in the war in Iraq, we are totally fucked...fucked by Bush and the supidity of Jane &amp; Joe American Meathead.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Now Bushco is playing the same crooked card trick with a stacked IRAN deck, and all the meatheads of America are falling for the same stupid, crooked card trick all over again.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;HOW STUPID CAN YOU GET?!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Stupidder still, clearly.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It took Jane &amp;amp; Joe American Meathead over 2 years to catch on to the fact that Bush had scammed US into attacking Iraq, so sometime before Nov of this year Bush will attack Iran...he has already started the same con-game scam again and Jane &amp; Joe are already going, "Ooh ooh ooh," again, and, "Ooh ooh ooh, good move Mr. Pres...So duh I duh guess duh this duh means duy now I duh gotta vote straight GOP 'cause Dems are soft on war &amp;amp; we don't wanna change hobby-horsies in duh middle duh of duh another duh war.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The effects of this unfathomable stupidity will be horrific: above and beyond the horrors of yet another unjustified con-war, the Iranian oil output will go the way of Iraqi oil production (ie DOWN!), ergo the price of oil will skyrocket and the cost of energy will become impossible to shoulder: those of us who must commute to work will not be able to because only the rich will be able to buy gasoline; the cost of everything we buy will skyrocket because the cost of transporting said goods will instantly reach the point where only the rich can afford to buy ANYTHING; our economy will crash and with the Bushco deficit being so horribly astronomical, the USA will have a credit rating of junk-bonds minus-ten thousand points, which will make it impossibe for the fed to borrow any money to do a single goddamn thing save US.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The depression of the '30s will pale in comparison to where we'll be five years from now and then, JANE &amp;amp; JOE AMERICAN MEATHEAD, your unfathomable stupidity will be to blame and the worst of it is (as if things could be any worse) is that YOU WILL NOT HAVE LEARNED A GODDAMN THING!!! You'll still be even stupidder than stupid gets and sucked in yet again by the Bushit bullshit of even more "trickle-down" economics to save the day, and that will be then END of DAYS for the USA and probably much of the world.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If I had the magical power to do so, I would disallow ANYONE who supports a strike against Iraq a vote in November, or to vote EVER AGAIN for life.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Will I ever sound the absolute bottom of American stupidity?

FOOLS I say...either that, or they're DINO's merely decrying their fear of their fears (to justify their bed-wetting fear of losing the filibuster).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Fact: Outlawing the filibuster is a double-edged sword. If the Rupugs rip filibustering from the cold dead hands of this cold (&amp; thus proven) dead Dem party, the filibuster will still be gone when Dems take back the majority...and they will, IF they stand up against that Repugnatious Alito bat-bastard from hell NOW.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Fact: Failure to face the threat of an anti-filibuster nuke'op will hurt Dems this Nov, while aiding and abetting Bushco's insidiously corrupt GOP! ie. Beltway Dems who run &amp;amp; hide from an Alito filibuster will cost the Demo Party a fair shot at retaking the majority in one house for sure, probably both.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I have a bi-dicotomous dream:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;1) Dems call the Repug's bluff(?) and successfully filibuster Alito;&lt;br /&gt;1a) Dems win a 2-house majority---reward for showing  some spine;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;2) Dems filibuster Alito, Repugs push the nuke'op button &amp; put Alito on the SC;&lt;br /&gt;2a) this is the best: Dems win a 2-house majority after Repugs have outlawed filibustering, ergo Dems can impeach Bushco unchallenged, Dems can pass huge TAKE-BACK taxes on corporations and the richest of the rich---also unchalllenged, and Dems can start rebuilding our social infrastructures...almost* totally unchallenged.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;* Lest I forget: Dems would have enough majority to over-ride any &amp;

Reid and which is which) Harry Reid finally (very nearly) settled it for me with a recent speech wherein he quite lucidly ticked off Bushco's crimes against Truth, Justitic and the American way...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But alas, my mind is suddenly cornfused again: Harry Reid, who I had finally got in my head was Harry Reid with a (D) has now said there are 8 senators who don't want to filibuster Sammy "the machine-gun" Borkalito but, he (Reid) refuses to say who those 8 are, adding, "...and I will not attempt to sway their decission not to filibuster...." Oh, that's leadership for yuh.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Well sit me down, freeze my face, slap me silly &amp;amp; call be stoopid!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Ye but we do here confess that this profound re-cornfusion is not entirely unanticipated: in the Reid speech (towit I defere to the above) there was one glaring omission which gave me pause from instantly jumping up &amp; down in unfettered joy &amp;amp; singing, "Reid's a (D), Reid's a (D): my joy was painfully fettered by Reid's ultimate failure to ever utter the "i" word relative to the smirking chimp of whom he was speaking in such illuminous terms.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"Humm," thought I at the time, "this is troubling."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Turns out I was sound in my angst to feel troubled: Reid is an (R) after all, on two counts:&lt;br /&gt;1) singing one tune while dancing to another is, if nothing else, Repugnatious;&lt;br /&gt;2) failure to filibuster Borkalito is, in fact, a vote for confirmation---and confirming "the machine-gun" is the very quintescence of adulterous Repugnacity.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Meanwhile, my list of five "true-blue" Dems is very near to being notched down to just four: by refusing to use the "i" word concerning Bush, and by further stating that instead of impeaching, she, "...preferes to let the electoral process take its course," Pelosi is not just flirting with my EJECT! button, she's taunting me with it!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Finally, this: the Sedate Judiciary Committee is scewing up their spin springs to maximum degree for (pretended) hearings next month into the illegallity, unConstitutionallity and impeachability of Bush's unwarranted spying on innocent American citizens who dare to disagree with the wittow boy pwezidunce's dictatorial headlong drive into tyranny...with him as the sitting/mtn-biking tyranical dictator, natch.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Thumb-screws at 9:11&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8196399-113827836323336729?l=methinkstoomuch.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://methinkstoomuch.blogspot.com/feeds/113827836323336729/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8196399&amp;postID=113827836323336729&amp;isPopup=true' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8196399/posts/default/113827836323336729'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8196399/posts/default/113827836323336729'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://methinkstoomuch.blogspot.com/2006/01/more-than-just-homonym.html' title='More than just a homonym...'/><author><name>call me crazy</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8196399.post-113793463505287699</id><published>2006-01-22T04:57:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2006-01-22T04:57:15.136-08:00</updated><title type='text'>Let us ponder for a moment...</title><content type='html'>&lt;span style="text-decoration: underline;"&gt;Honest players never win in a crooked game.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Will things really change if Dem's take back the majority in either (or even both) house(s) of Congress this Nov.? Methinks not.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Ralph Nader in 2000: "Republicans and Democrats are essentially the same party---their manifest differences are mere window-dressing designed to keep any 3rd party (of real opposition) from ever gaining even a toehold in government." (We paraphrase.) I, Black Jack Brisco, now hereby state catagorically that the differences between the two parties (D&amp;R) are now even less than before: the window-dressing has been reduced to nothing more than a flimsy facade of paper &amp;amp; tempra with no real substance whatsoever.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The evidence is profuse, profound, and it runs both wide and deep all across the nation.

type='text'>Fade to blue...</title><content type='html'>&lt;span style="text-decoration: underline;"&gt;So Sad...&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Due to a complete lack of interest, spine, pluck &amp; cajonas in Bloggoland's leftern hemisphere, "Let's Roll Day" has been cancelled and the Secret Attack Squirrel "Flight For Freedom" squadron has been dissolved, disbanded, and all sent on their not-so-merry &amp;amp; wayward seperate ways.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It has now been undeniably demonstrated that "I'm a Democrat" voters have exactly the kind of congress-people they deserve: self-interested, spineless, pluckless &amp; de-balled cowards whos' MMO (Main Modus Operandi) is limited to merely whining from the shady shadows of their gutless terrors...just like the vast majority of those who vote for them---those content to just sneak &amp;amp; lurk in the "Comments" boxes of bloggoland's leftern hemisphere.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;These cowardly Democrats are always thrilled to whine among themselves on the one hand while piling hoped on hopes that somebody(else) will do something before it's too late...is now too late:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;While the congress has been bought &amp; paid for by greedy &amp;amp; corrupt special interests only interested in enriching themsleves, a tyrannical wanna-be dictator has stolen two elections and stacked the Supreme Court with a majority of fools...fools all, because these fools (falsely) believe that the tyrant will continue to honor their blind loyalty to him once they have made him dictator (in fact, if not in print). But the other side of this fact is that a tyrannical dictator honors no one but himself and his own powers---those who have put him in power will only remain in his good grace as long as they continue to do just exactly as he dictates.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The fear of retrubution and ruination that's already and rapidly growing among those who dare criticize the dicatator will soon find themselves succoring to these same fears; where they once imagined special freedoms in their own thoughts &amp; actions (in return for supporting the dictator's rise to tyrannical powers) they will instead find themselves just as easily dumped, dismissed, even punished, as the dictator's detractors have been.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Witness the evidence: continual and unlawful lying to congress and the American people goes unchallenged by any legal actions, ergo unstopped and by extropolation, condoned; spying on peace groups, anti-war groups, and the illegal tapping of phone/e-mail/internet traffic of ALL AMERICANS likewise goes unchalleged, and is thus unwittingly condoned by those who could stop it but refuse to do so---either from fear, or because they secretly support the notion of the USA becoming a dictatorship WITH THEMSELVES IN PERPETUAL POSITIONS OF UNMITIGATED POWER. This group includes all the fools in Traditional Media who are supporting this tyrant's rise to power by popogating his lies and deceits; further compounded by their failure to speak out against the criminal acts he commits with unchallenged impunity.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;All the whining little worms in bloggoland who SAS tried so feverishly to rouse in protest/domonstration have, by their inaction, surrendered to the coming tyranny and absolutely, unchangeably relegated themselves to being the lowest craps in the lowest class/caste system that is now falling down upon us.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This is a perfect example of "Life ain't fair": while all those who are failing to take a stand against this decline into tyranny deserve no more than to be ruled by an evil dictator, those of us who are taking a stand DON'T deserve it, but we will never-the-less be forced under the grist mill right along with these spineless worms, and I hate them for it.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I'm alone in the SAS G-HQ treehouse this morning---all others have fled and I shall soon follow their well-advised but saddening example.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I'm turning out the lights now.

Meanwhile...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Damn: this just in: the Seedy-Speedy-Kwiky-Shop does not carry instant coffee! Cranking up his super-heroic micro-brain, Secret Attack Squirrel said in a muddled tone, "Extreme emergencies call for extreme measures." Ergo we have recoved that one chunk of fossilized instant coffee from the trash can, added a dash of hot water and shook vigorously, thus producing a semi-liquified super-consentrate of W-990. Owing to zero experience with mixing tolleable measurements of this dubious concoction, the first cup had the consistancy of much over-used lawn-mower engine oil at first sip, Secret Attack Squirrel shot sraight out the hanger-bay door on a point-blank trajectory for immediate collision into the side of a passing Continental bus...Chartered to Chicago.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We have now diluted this possibly poisonous brew, but the jury's still out (on various limbs) in juditious consideration of its potential potability and viability for suporing life.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A new development: the SAS Flight Boss just arose with heartening news: "We have another, (really)old coffee-maker long-ago retired to moth-balls and it should still be serviceable."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Manna from heaven!

Tho' the Big Dogs of Traditional Media (formerly known as M$M) will make every attempt to sweep this auto-monumental demonstration under the skirt-folds of pro-Bushco spinning &amp;amp; lies, the local outlets wouldn't dare---it'll be a big story &amp; good press for them (if not the chimp)...and to ignore it would be at their peril.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Sadly, SAS has so far had little luck (no luck, really) garnering any support for this peaceful but potentially noisy demonstration against the looming threat of a smirking chimp becoming tyrant and dictator over US.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;to summerize:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;what: IMPEACH BUSH DRIVE-IN HONKATHON&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;when: 1/21/06 noon to 1:00 your local time&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;where: your local newspaper/TV &amp;amp; radio stations&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;action: make car-window sign saying IMPEACH BUSH and drive by above venues honking&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;All you need is one sheet of paper and a crayon...everybody's got that.

What caused this condition? News that Sammy "the machine-gun" Borkalito's confirmation to the SCotUSA will likely not be fillibustered by Damnocrats, thus alowing the wittow boy preziducne to punt another of his Bushevikian pro-tyranny/pro-dictatorship fascists into the highest court in the land, thus putting the High Court onto a fast, oily track designed to fast-track the Constutution of the USA to the very bottom of the GOPer oil-fired, civil/human rights-burning burn-pile of unbriddled GOPer evil, greed and corruption.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Ordinarily, this is where SAS's Emergency Response Team would swing into action and take whatever actions were deemed necessary and apropriate to revive and restore our fainted hero back up to snuff as the super-hero he ordinarily is, but none of the ERT has yet returned from their flights abroad caused by that gawd-all mighty powerful accidental fartbomb explosion of several days past. So, throwing caution to the wind, this reporter has taken matters into his own paws and broken cell-phone silence: I called all three ERT members and told'em wha' hoppen'd, adding, "Get your tails back here ASAP!" and further adding, "Our Nation needs you!" and additionally adding, "Get the lead out!" and finally adding, "Please?"&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;One ERT member asked, "Anything else?" and I added, "This (Sammy 'the machine-gun' Borkalito) situation is only the tip of the iceburg: As we speak, Bushco is currently fixing faux-facts to justify tactical nuclear strikes against Iran and un-warranted illegal wire-taps by the Bushco-controled NSA are spreading faster that fartbomb fumes and the IRS is illegally feeding NSA data on leftist voters and the NSA is illegally spying of anti-war individuals, groups, clubs, old grannies and anybody else who disagrees with the wittow boy prezidunce and it's been proven that Duhyuh wanted to bomb al Jazeera and he did fix faux-facts to justify attacking Iraq and our chicken-shitted Damnocrats AIN'T DOING A FUCKING THING ABOUT IT!"&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;T'was then I paused to take a deep breath, only to be rewarded by cell-phone silence from the cell-phone ethernet: ERT #2 had hung up on this reporter.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;On that unsettling note, we end this transmission until further notice.&lt;br /&gt;?&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8196399-113714987012054046?l=methinkstoomuch.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://methinkstoomuch.blogspot.com/feeds/113714987012054046/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8196399&amp;postID=113714987012054046&amp;isPopup=true' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8196399/posts/default/113714987012054046'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8196399/posts/default/113714987012054046'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://methinkstoomuch.blogspot.com/2006/01/iii-for-many-hours-now-secret-attack.html' title=''/><author><name>call me crazy</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8196399.post-113706587908426514</id><published>2006-01-12T03:37:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2006-01-12T03:37:59.166-08:00</updated><title type='text'>This &amp; that beats all.</title><content type='html'>&lt;span style="text-decoration: underline;"&gt;HOOPS&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The startling behavior of Secret Attack Squirrel and Black Jack Brisco---that one-eyed cat with the twice-broke zig-zag skelatal tail---becoming bossom drinkin buddies yesterday has apparently ended. The facts are not entirely clear at this time, but we can surmise certain inferences from observable evidence in the SAS G-HQ hanger following Black Jack's paniced, head-over-tail full-throttle withdrawl from the scene.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It seems that after several hours of imbibing heady ale (67 pints are currently missing from inventory) SAS &amp; BJ adjourned to the G-HQ mess-hall for aspirin &amp;amp; a snack and unwittingly, it seems, Secret Attack Squirrel ate something "disagreeable" and before long, he had inadvertantly worked up enough gas to arm several small fartbombs, one of which was incidentally and accidentally released in close quarters (a seriously nasty combination). Fortunately, the high-explosive fumes did not detonate (for a change) but with his most-recent involuntary super-global circumnaviation still in the forefront of his adled memory, Black Jack hit the road running...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;...Remember you heard it here first: Secret Attack Squirrel came instantly to the hanger-bay door and leaning out, cried after Black Jack, "Sorry about that, old man! I didn't mean to...I didn't do it on purpose! It WAS a dud, after all. No real harm done!"&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;T'was then that SAS passed out and plummeted straight down, head first...impact with the ground necessarily forced another fartbomb release and sadly, this time, this one did ignite. But once again, good fortune was on the side of good and the ensuing fire-ball was rather small and quickly and harmlessly dissipated into a light, southerly breeze.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It is the opinion of this reporter that at their earliest possible convenience, Secret Attack Squirrel's DOA (Dept of Ordinance Arming--aka the chief cook &amp;amp; bottle-washer here at SAS G-HQ) create new standards and immediately implement improved proceedures for the CONTROLED arming of Secret's fartbombs! This business of giving SAS carte blanc access to the raw material required for fueling and arming fartbombs HAS GOT TO STOP! Though our illustrious super-hero always conducts himself with the best of intentions and n'er a bit of malice towards others, he simply can not be trusted in the pantry! QED all these accidental weapons releases, and the unintentional meyham they produce. Indeed, none of the ERT (Emergency Response Team) has yet return from afar and afield, making us wonder if maybe, just maybe, they've gone AWOL...perfectly unerstandable under these latest mitigating circumstances.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Back at-cha tomorrow.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8196399-113706587908426514?l=methinkstoomuch.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://methinkstoomuch.blogspot.com/feeds/113706587908426514/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8196399&amp;postID=113706587908426514&amp;isPopup=true' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8196399/posts/default/113706587908426514'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8196399/posts/default/113706587908426514'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://methinkstoomuch.blogspot.com/2006/01/this-that-beats-all.html' title='This &amp; that beats all.'/><author><name>call me crazy</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8196399.post-113698291778680800</id><published>2006-01-11T04:35:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2006-01-11T04:35:17.873-08:00</updated><title type='text'>Of politics, booze &amp; strange bedfellows:</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://methinkstoomuch.blogspot.com/"&gt;I thunk-it&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Where we left off yesterday: Black Jack Brinco had gotten into the SAS G-HQ flight-hanger and he &amp; Secret Attack Squirrel were circling each other warily...everyone else bailed out el pronto...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Fearing the worst and yet burning up with curiosity, this reporter yesterday crept closer &amp;amp; closer back to Secret Attac Squirrl's Global Head-Quarters, thinking, "It's awful quiet up there, too quiet," thus giving us pause to wonder if Black Jack was just then making a quiet and sensible meal of our dear leader &amp; hero. I had just reached to trunk of the tree when I was startled to hear a macabre and meloncholic tune in the form of Black Jack's felineous voice...only to be further startled to hear Secret Attack Squirrel join in...that's when I was struck in the head by an empty metal flask smelling of whiskey...cheap whiskey...and I was knocked senseless for uncounted minutes.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But upon regaining my senses, the mournful bale was still lilting downward from on high in a slightly-less-than harmonious discombobulation of an old WWII RAF song. With curiosity raging out of control, I mounted the bark and worked my way up to the hanger-bay door with utmost caution &amp;amp; peeking in, was so stunned by the scene that befell my sight that I fell plumb out of the tree and knocked myself senseless all over again...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Here's what I recall seeing: SAS &amp; Black Jack leaning together, obviously propping each other up, shoulder to shoulder &amp;amp; forelegs locked, leaning on G-HQ's plastic piano, weilding mugs of ale and apparently deep in the throes of some kind-a weird counter-species male bonding thing! On a far wall hung the wittow-boy pwezidunce in effigy, spiked through with enough English-feathered darts to quill a porkee-pine! "Where'd they get all those darts?" I recall asking myself during free-fall on the way down to the ground for a hard &amp;amp; heavy landing.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I'm almost back to my usual self now, but I'm not goin up there again alone!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Further reports "As time goes by."

So how's Secret doin'? Heard from him yet?"&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"I'm right here, Blackie."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The SAS G-HQ was instantly evacuted, leaving Secret Attack Squirrel and Black Jack Brisco behind, alone together in the hanger-bay, circling each other warily.

(or something to that effect)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This outrage of nounerific adverbosity has flabbergasted one &amp; all here at SAS G-HQ, and we all stand apalled, just apalled...anybody who's ever been here at the SAS G-HQ tree house know's that Secret Attack Squirrel is not alone, and tho' his friends (at least those willing to admit to it) can be counted on just 1-1/2 squirrel paws, HE IS NOT ALONE!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;True, we don't get a lot of visitors here, and the number of "anybody who's ever been here" probably doesn't far exceed that astronomical figure of  2 (including Back Jack Brisco) but we stand by it that Secret Attack Squirrel in not along here and furthermore, he rarely even speaks in the 1st person posessive, protactive, regressive or wierdissive, let alone going hog-wild with any silly second person soloquies of questionable inferential substanalities...nope, it's mostly just repotin' &amp;amp; quotin goin on here, and most all of it's made up of good-ol' gall'd-nab-it utterly false fabrications manufactured in the subterranian ice-caves of a sick mind, currently leased from the evil war lord, Prince Octoporous.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Hq&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8196399-113682741764162484?l=methinkstoomuch.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://methinkstoomuch.blogspot.com/feeds/113682741764162484/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8196399&amp;postID=113682741764162484&amp;isPopup=true' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8196399/posts/default/113682741764162484'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8196399/posts/default/113682741764162484'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://methinkstoomuch.blogspot.com/2006/01/lightening-strike.html' title='Lightening Strike?'/><author><name>call me crazy</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8196399.post-113680620919267499</id><published>2006-01-09T03:30:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2006-01-09T03:30:09.286-08:00</updated><title type='text'>The return of the red-i...</title><content type='html'>&lt;span style="text-decoration: underline;"&gt;XXX&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I should come as no surprise that Secret Attack Squirrel---thanks to the benefit of certain unspecified super-heroic powers of recovery---was the first to return safely to base after his most recent accidental release of one truly special and totally memorable fartbomb, the effect of which launched SAS along with the Emergency Response Team and Black Jack Briso all together helter-skelter into various and dissimilar low-earth orbits of unexpected duration. Dragging himself painfully and incrementally up the tree and then limping pathetically into the SAS G-HQ hanger, Secret's first words were a shocker: "Is Black Jack back yet?"&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Thus precipitating a simple answer, "Not as far as we know," but a question still begged: "Why do you ask?"&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"I ask because our flight-paths crossed somewhere over the Indian ocean and his speed appeared to be a couple of clicks faster than mine. But then he WAS going the long way around on an equatorial route, while I was flying pole-to-pole...and anybody who flies much knows the world's fatter one way than the other."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It was at just that moment when we heard a caterwhaling squeal go screaming overhead followed by a really-smallish sonic boom and rushing to the hanger-bay door, we were all thrilled by the spectacle of seeing a bone-tailed cat go streaking by in his meteoric descent into a nearby, recently-plowed corn field where last Halloween's "Field of Screams"  maze had been set up. Someone observed on a particualarly rhetorically sardonic note, "Looks like Black Jack's back now, if yuh wanna know." Another asked, "Yuh think this cured him of the mange?"...Secret Attack Squirrel just nodded, then shrugged, then shook his head (somewhat stiffly) then turned away and staggered into sick-bay, saying, "Let me know when the ERT gets in---no more flight operations without them on duty, or at least on call, AND they gotta be ambulatory...I ain't flyin' no-moe tilt they be ambulatory."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Feeling sorry for Secret, this reporter asked, "Anything I can do? Anything I can get you?"&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"Yeh," said he, "pain relievers, and lots of 'em, a fifth of 12-year old Scotch would be a nice start; but if that's asking too much, I'll settle for a pint of Lord Calvert, or even a twelve'er of Milwaukee's Best; and if that's still too much to ask, maybe some Mad Dog 20/20 and if you can't even swing that, a 40-oz bottle of Colt 45 or Old English 800--doesn't have to be cold. Maybe you should pass the hat."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Thus ends another day in the continuing saga of Secret Attack Squirrel's on-going battle with a way-ripe batch of left-over chili and some out-dated Jolt soda.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;More phews at 11:00.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8196399-113680620919267499?l=methinkstoomuch.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://methinkstoomuch.blogspot.com/feeds/113680620919267499/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8196399&amp;postID=113680620919267499&amp;isPopup=true' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8196399/posts/default/113680620919267499'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8196399/posts/default/113680620919267499'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://methinkstoomuch.blogspot.com/2006/01/return-of-red-i.html' title='The return of the red-i...'/><author><name>call me crazy</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8196399.post-113672512375717813</id><published>2006-01-08T04:58:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2006-01-08T04:58:46.853-08:00</updated><title type='text'>doowoop...</title><content type='html'>&lt;span style="text-decoration: underline;"&gt;00&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Writing in the heat of a very heated and exciting moment on Friday, this reporter got mixed up about two mystical mythical critters: towit, a bird re-arising from ashes (ie Phoenix) was NOT seen on the banner on that speeding flattery wagon that T-boned Secret Attack Squirrel---that image was acutally a critter with a lion's body, wings and the head &amp; chest (ie boobs) of a woman...presumably human. Our apologies, but one must recall...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As you may rememeber from our last episode, Secret Attack Sqirrel and the SAS Emergency Response Team (ERT) had gotten themselves entangled together in a discarded hairnet, fallen out of their tree and were scapping it out on the ground in a vigorous and contensious debate over how to best extract themselves from the situation...but no two could agree on a sigle point, ergo things were going down hill fast when Black Jack Brisco overheard this vociferous and violent controversy and came to investigate.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Brisco's initial assesment suggested swift action and he was on the brink of throwing himself into the battle, but them some unfathomable second thought arrested his approach: he sat down...not easy, nor particularly comfy on a hideless &amp;amp; wire-stiff fused skeletal tail. But sit he did, and in that gentle repose merely observed the melee, presumably waiting patiently to see how events would ultimately unfold.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As events unfolded to Black Jack's perspective, we surmise he must have been thinking he'd just wait until SAS and the ERT wore themselves out, and then pounce for a simple mop-up operation. However, wanting to get a closer look at the meyham, he moved in closer---too close: clearly, he was unaware that Secret Attack Squirrel had earlier slammed down a prodigous breakfast of left-over chili con carn mixed with left-over chili with beans, all of it washed it down with two 16oz bottles of Pepsi and three (WAY-long date-expired) cans of Jolt soad. (Note: this reporter as since learned that the left-over chili was over two-weeks old and had been unrefrigerated, which spells "Fermentation" with a capitol "F".)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We cut to the chase: All who have been following these super-heroic adventures of Secret Attack Squirrel and his crew are aware that his weapon of choice is the infamous, incidious, "fartbomb", and such are prone to an accidental release at any moment. Well, Black Jack Brisco was just two feet away when it happened: an accidental fartbomb release in the midst of the ERT, the four of them together tightly wrapped up in a discarded hair net. Well this was no ordinary fartbomb: the propellant (recall the chili etc) has sinced proofed out at over 90% pure methane, and the ensuing "six ways to Sunday" conflagration goes beyond the pale of of this reporter's language skills.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So let it sufice to say just this: Black Jack Brisco, Secret Attack Squirrel and the ERT all went ballistic in that mushroom cloud of indescribable horrors and the restraining strenth of that old hair-net was just no match for the combined energies of four totally freaked-out squirrels: all have (presumably) gone their seperate ways at mach+ speeds, leaving only smoke-streaks &amp;amp; con-trails to evidence the multiple directions of the manifold, super-sonic departures...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We'll let you know when (if?) any return to safety.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8196399-113672512375717813?l=methinkstoomuch.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://methinkstoomuch.blogspot.com/feeds/113672512375717813/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8196399&amp;postID=113672512375717813&amp;isPopup=true' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8196399/posts/default/113672512375717813'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8196399/posts/default/113672512375717813'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://methinkstoomuch.blogspot.com/2006/01/doowoop.html' title='doowoop...'/><author><name>call me crazy</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8196399.post-113656081795417807</id><published>2006-01-06T07:20:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2006-01-06T07:20:18.056-08:00</updated><title type='text'>Unabashedly red-faced:</title><content type='html'>&lt;span style="text-decoration: underline;"&gt;?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Just moments ago, while surfing the AMERICAblog comments section, Secret Attack Squirrel was unexpected broad-sided by a flattery wagon sporting jaded shades and flying the banner of mystical, mythical bird re-arisen from ashes.

(By "us" it can be taken for granted we refere to all SAS staff members, their families, pets and the communal back-scratching post.) And finally, "Has our fearless leader gone nuts?!"&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"Yes," said one sadly, adding, "indeed, 'stark raving loonie-tunes' would not be an overstatement...buzzerko, cuckoo crackers, bonkers, mentally unhinged, unscrewed, unwound..."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"ENOUGH!" SAS quickly and loudly admonished from the urinal,  then, "We need a knew scent cake in here."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"With all due respect, chief, you're not supposed get IN the urinal to use it."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;All which begs the follow-up question: "Wha-hoppin? What overwhelming challenge has so destablized our intrepid hero from that historic single-minded drive in the fight for truth, justice and the American way?"&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Secret Attack Squirrel's carefully worded response: "The battle...no, the WAR is lost. Congress has utterly abdicated their role in the Checks &amp; Balance scheme of things, thus allowing duh wittow boy prezidunce to gather all the reins of power into his own two bloody wittow boy monkey-claws...which are controled by a cabal led by evilDick Cha-cha-duh-dooschie-baggie-Cheney.

Black Jack's twice-broken tail:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;For reasons/causes unknown, the fur, skin and flesh of his most-rearward appendage is now all gone, stripped clean, thus leaving the horrifying skeletal  remainder of tiny &amp; sharp little spinal bones---all intact and fused together into a rigid  weapon of indiscribable scariness in the form of a jagged lightening bolt. Upon first sight of that hair-raising spectacle, the EWRG scooted really fast back to SAS Global HQ to report this frightening development, only to be (initially) laughed out of the hanger-bay door.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But owing to a "serious bent" when it comes to intel'--albeit unconfirmed and of a seriously dubious nature--Secret Attack Squirrel scheduled and initiated an immediate lauch and within minutes, returned to base with confirmation: Brisco IS back, AND armed with a new and apparently perilous weapon of indeterminent efficacy.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So right now, there's a whole lot of anxious pacing &amp;amp; skin-rawing head-scratchin' goin on in the SAS G-HQ tree-house...the fleas are a-jumpin' and a-scurryin' for dear life! The coffee's boiling, Danish has been brought in and a deepthink-tank of chocolate-covered cherries is being filled with iced vodka and re-heated tomato juice (which is why the fleas are bailing out...NOW).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;For you condi-seweres, the deepthink-tank mix-ratio: 6 gal vodka, 3 gal tom-juice, 2 qts tobasco sauce, one lb black pepper, a twelve-pack of celery stalks and one acorn on a stick for each tumbler...and we're certain they'll ALL be tumbling withing the hour!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;CANNON BALL: Cowa-bunga, dudes!&lt;br /&gt;!&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8196399-113638007215283883?l=methinkstoomuch.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://methinkstoomuch.blogspot.com/feeds/113638007215283883/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8196399&amp;postID=113638007215283883&amp;isPopup=true' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8196399/posts/default/113638007215283883'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8196399/posts/default/113638007215283883'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://methinkstoomuch.blogspot.com/2006/01/return-of-black-jack-brisco.html' title='The Return of Black Jack Brisco...'/><author><name>call me crazy</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8196399.post-113628867725369507</id><published>2006-01-03T03:44:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2006-01-03T03:44:37.340-08:00</updated><title type='text'>A tail of an idle-jet.</title><content type='html'>&lt;span style="text-decoration: underline;"&gt;;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;An exhausted jet-fuel supply finally ended Secret Attack Squirrel's radical tail-spin maneuver, which led to these panting words: "I am not a happy squirrel this morning.

Therefore, SAS's Personal Safety Evaluation Panel (PSEP) not only grounded our intrepid super-hero, but went as far as inflicting enforced confinement to quarters...this has been achieved by stapling Secret Attack Squirrel's tail to the flight-hanger's wooden floor.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;At first blush, Secret was unaware of this new-fangled restraint system and attempted an emergency take-off when that first staple pierced fur, skin and bone with one resounding "Whack" of the Stanley pro'-grade stapler---the ensuing, tightly-constricted circlular full-speed flight pattern has given new meaning to the term "tail spin", and the resultant sounds were, to put it kindly, remarkable!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Observing what appeared to be an emotional state of high panic with no immediate end in sight, one member of the SAS Emergency Response Team swung into action with a butterfly net, but, regrettably, Secret's hyper-velocity and super-hero thrust were so great that the ERT member was swept into the howling vortex  so suddenly that the "quick release" was just a tad too slow and that unfortunate squirrel was last seen on a sweeping trajectory far over distant railroad tracks six bocks to the south...we can only hope he lands on soft ground.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Meanwhile, Secret Attack Squirrel's tail-spin rotation has slowed to a leisurely 42 rpm and now, all we can do is wait...presumably for the fuel to run out.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Cork-screws at eleven.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8196399-113620429256285913?l=methinkstoomuch.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://methinkstoomuch.blogspot.com/feeds/113620429256285913/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8196399&amp;postID=113620429256285913&amp;isPopup=true' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8196399/posts/default/113620429256285913'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8196399/posts/default/113620429256285913'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://methinkstoomuch.blogspot.com/2006/01/ohwoeisme-factor.html' title='The &quot;Ohwoeisme&quot; factor:'/><author><name>call me crazy</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8196399.post-113611634254217213</id><published>2006-01-01T03:52:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2006-01-01T03:52:22.616-08:00</updated><title type='text'>As the world spins...</title><content type='html'>&lt;span style="text-decoration: underline;"&gt;'&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Still reeling from an unfortunate entaglement with a certain duck late last night--ie a bottle of Cold Duck--Secret Attack Squirrel is conducting operations closer to ground this morning, refering us to that sage advice for the functionally impaired: "Don't fly any higher than you're willing to fall."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But as luck would have it, there's not much goin on in the DC Beltway today anyhow: Congress is out of town and besides, it's Sunday, and New-Year's Day to boot. Also due to this auspicious occasion, duh wittow boy pwezidunce illegal/impeachable wire-tapping is currently in a cyclic sag...Secret Attack Squirrel was not the only one to suffer a run-in with the bubbly last night!

(ie. those who's Civil Liberties duh prezidunce is most interested in trampling on and silencing via unConstitutional acts against innocent US civilians.)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Additionally, owing to this once-a-year threat-to-the-Constitution slump, Secret Attack Squirrel has given the SAS Emergency Response Team (ERT) some badly-needed time off and with that in mind, is further exersizing super-heroic better judgement by not just staying closer to the ground, but in the immediate vacinity of the SAS Global Headquarter tree--the wisdom is clear: injuries suffered without the ready &amp;amp; most excellent aid of the ERT could prove disasterous, even fatal.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Finally, this just in from the SAS-OOS (the Secret Attack Squirrel-Oracle Observations Squad): cosmic indicators are indicative--that is highly suggestive--that Secret Attack Squirrel's guiding star is currently in nebulous decline, which can mean only one thing: DANGER!

#3 and then things get a little hazy, but...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;After what can only be described as a Super-extraordianry bout of nifty but nutty deliberation, the ERT has issued the following:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;ERT Deepthink Committee Resolution #213: Unless those in the USA who still support Bushco on any level can be forced to imbibe, cogiatate, assimilate, grasp and generally understand the significance of every scrap of evidence in the "Media Matters" content before Nov of 2006, the USA will sink into tyranny in late Jan of 2007;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;...ERT DCR #213 subparagraph a): Ain't gonna happen because even a Super-Hero like Secret Attack Squirrel is damn-near powerless when it comes to overpowering/overcoming the sheer stupidity of the Average American Meathead's sheer stupidity.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;----------&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A parting comment/early obit': Owing to the fact that the right-wingnut monster-network [NBC] has now ripped into TOTAL control of MSNBC, Keith Oberman's "Countdown" is slated for burial as soon as the ink on the NBC/takeover/MS contract-shredding celebration is underway. The NBC Chopshop Headroller Dept is slated to issue this explanation: "We're sorry to be forced to force Keith out, but his absolute refusal to spin and regurgitate (R) corporate Bushit is intollerable---we MUST have a tryannical dictatorship ASAP and sadly, Mr. Oberman is a bothersome fly in (R) oinkment toward that end.

But this leaves little room for data storage---such as remembering how to spell, and names &amp; places---which largely explains Secret's incessant activity: the drive for constantly hiding more nuts because the locatons of all past hidden stashes are instantly &amp; forever forgotten; ergo: constant activity; however, this leaves no time for looking words up in a dictionary---a dictionary which can't be easily located because it's last location is now long forgotten.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But wait! There's more!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Now more than ever, our planet is at risk of falling under the tyrannical spell of an insipid dictatorship known as "The New World Order", wherein one individual (we can hardly use the term "man" in this case)...euphamistically and variously nicknamed "Chimpy", "Shrub", "Dubyuh", "Shit-4-brains" &amp; so forth...gathers all the reins of global power into his own greedy little blood-stained claws: towit everybody then must do, think &amp; say whatever the hell he tells them to---under penalty of extreme rendition and torture.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Another evil fuck named Hitler tried this last century, and he almost damn-near succeeded! The only thing that stopped him was the Mighty USA...but sadly, this new 21st Century neo'evil fuck named (expletive deleted) is the pwez of the USA, so nothing can stop this shrimp-turd---nothing short of a Super Hero.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Thus is born SECRET ATTACK SQUIRREL! And fighting against Bushy's tyrannical war against Truth, Liberty and the American Way is a never-ending battle, which takes up any &amp; all free time remaining after more new nuts have been located, stashed and forgotten.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And that's the way it is.&lt;br /&gt;!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8196399-113568715114981110?l=methinkstoomuch.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://methinkstoomuch.blogspot.com/feeds/113568715114981110/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8196399&amp;postID=113568715114981110&amp;isPopup=true' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8196399/posts/default/113568715114981110'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8196399/posts/default/113568715114981110'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://methinkstoomuch.blogspot.com/2005/12/fan-writes-to-ask.html' title='A fan writes to ask:'/><author><name>call me crazy</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8196399.post-113559984676242292</id><published>2005-12-26T04:24:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2005-12-26T04:24:06.813-08:00</updated><title type='text'>Out on a limb.</title><content type='html'>.&lt;br /&gt;Daily Log:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Distraught and saddened into a rare fit of meloncholic mopiness, Secret Attack Squirrel is currently outside pacing (more like a hobble, really) up &amp; down the south branch here at Global Headquarters.

Armed with a hacksaw, two critter-muzzles (size small), three rubber mallets, a bottle stopper and three &amp;amp; 1/2 pints of Acne-brand acetone, our intrepid trio threw themselves into hasty action: muzzles were attached, Secret Attack Squirrel's fartbombs were "safed" via corking their launch tube with the bottle stopper and in minutes, the duct tape had been severed and then liberal doses of actone were applied...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;...one can only imagine the ERT's surprise and wonderment at the rejuvinating powers associated with pouring high-octane paint remover onto the scratched, bitten, shafed, raw and de-furred hides of these two mortal combatants. Attempts at re-anesthetizing the two with rubber mallets proved ill-conceived and totally ineffective---and then Black Jack and all three members of the ERT were suddenly rendered senseless when a Secret Attack Squirrel fartbomb blew out the launch-tube bottle stopper and exploded right in their faces, briefly lighting up the star-spangled night sky.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This morning, Secret Attack Squirrel is resting (albeit uncomfortably) with the Sunday paper and one bit of good news that caught his swolen eye seems to be acting like a salve for his injuries: tomorrow's Barron weekly investor magazine--a publication of the Wall Street Journal--will feature an op/ed calling for Congressional impeachment hearings against the witto boy pwesidunt for committing impeachable crimes. Secret Attack Squirrel has issued the following statement: "Barron calling for impeachment hearings against this pwezidunt may well turn corporate America against W, and that would be a very bad thing for duh chimp, and a very good thing for US."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And to conclude: upon regaining consciousness last night from the brain-stunning effects of Secret's fartbomb release, Black Jack Brisco split for points unknown and it is hoped he'll not soon return.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;!&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8196399-113551636968690539?l=methinkstoomuch.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://methinkstoomuch.blogspot.com/feeds/113551636968690539/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8196399&amp;postID=113551636968690539&amp;isPopup=true' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8196399/posts/default/113551636968690539'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8196399/posts/default/113551636968690539'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://methinkstoomuch.blogspot.com/2005/12/separation-of-cat-squirrel-act.html' title='The Separation of Cat &amp;

squirrel fur working in concert to obstruct Secret Attack Squirrel's ERT (Emercency Response Team); to further interfere with advances along these lines, two of the three ERT members have so far been unwilling to approach the fracas: one sighting fear of another accidental fartbomb release; the other listing a whole plethorea of manifold hazards associated with any proximity to an insensed and thoroughly pissed-off alley-cat being duct-taped to a sorely-wounded flying attack squirrel!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Further developments ASAP&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8196399-113543017367083692?l=methinkstoomuch.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://methinkstoomuch.blogspot.com/feeds/113543017367083692/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8196399&amp;postID=113543017367083692&amp;isPopup=true' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8196399/posts/default/113543017367083692'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8196399/posts/default/113543017367083692'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://methinkstoomuch.blogspot.com/2005/12/situational-update.html' title='Situational update...'/><author><name>call me crazy</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8196399.post-113542693243528613</id><published>2005-12-24T04:22:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2005-12-24T04:22:14.190-08:00</updated><title type='text'>The Great X-men screw-up:</title><content type='html'>'&lt;br /&gt;After one whopper-pile of high-explosives disappeared a few days ago in N.Mejiko, duh Feds broke all records at tracking-down &amp;

But luck is not perfect: blind-sided, struck &amp; run over (repeatedly) by a speeding skateboard outfitted with snow plow and chains, Secret Attack Squirrel's brain was further scambled--this brutal hit &amp; run assault also inflicted additional injuries which requred nineteen stitches in ten-pound test fishing line, six yards of (slightly used) gauze and a roll of duct tape pilfered from a negligent plumber's open van...t'was a display of "battlefield surgery" at its finest!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But that was just the begining: Secret Attack Squrrel was next spirited away by a not-so-friendly foe---Black Jack Brisco, a one-eyed cat with a broken tail (broken in two places) and suffering with a terminal case of mange---had just dragged Secret Attack Squirrel out of traffic (with dark designs in his heart) when a fortuitous attack of the itchies distracted him just long enough for our 4-legged super-hero to stagger away and then (sort-of) bolt up an old sailor's wooden leg (understandably mistaking it for a regally-robed tree) where-as the sailer hurled Secret Attack Squirrel to the relative safety of a near-by shed's tin roof just two blocks away.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Think Secret Attack Squirrel was out of the woods?...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But wait, there's more!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Hot on Attack Squirrel's scent, Black Jack went ripping up the sailor's other leg---ie the GOOD leg, the one with feelings in it---and instantly found himself passing birds in flight...he studied them closely, albeit with only one eye, hoping to gain some really-quick insight on mid-air steerage, navigation and safe landing proceedures...it was a fell day for both when Black Jack augered straight into Secret Attack Squirrel, intermingled his matted and scarce cat-fur &amp; raw skin with the exposed, sticky goo on a loose flap of duct tape, and then all hell broke loose.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Secret Attack Squirrel and Black Jack Brisco were last seen embroiled in energetic negotiations concerning an immediate (and mutually desired) separation but wonder of wonders, it appeared that their activities actually had the unexpected effect of actually drawing them closer together!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;What happened next is unclear at this time.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Mews at 11:00&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8196399-113516992618792006?l=methinkstoomuch.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://methinkstoomuch.blogspot.com/feeds/113516992618792006/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8196399&amp;postID=113516992618792006&amp;isPopup=true' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8196399/posts/default/113516992618792006'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8196399/posts/default/113516992618792006'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://methinkstoomuch.blogspot.com/2005/12/while-still-in-coma-secret-attack.html' title=''/><author><name>call me crazy</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8196399.post-113499833400429768</id><published>2005-12-19T05:18:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2005-12-19T05:18:54.096-08:00</updated><title type='text'>Damn...</title><content type='html'>'&lt;br /&gt;On the cusp of a cognizant revival, Secret Attack Squirrel was informed that all discussion on Bushco's admission to his illegal/impeachable wire-taps has been stripped from M$M, precipitating the untoward release of yet another fartbomb!...and now Secret Attack Squirrel has slipped back into his normal mental state of DUH!
