FUN: I love it when a plan comes together
Saturday, June 28, 2008From Luddite’s wife:
Copied from a forward.
*** begin quote ***
Okay, here’s the plan:
1) Back off and allow those men who want to marry men, marry men.
2) Allow those women who want to marry women, marry women.
3) Allow those folks who want to abort their babies, abort their babies.
4) In three generations, there will be no democrats!!!
I love it when a plan comes together

TECH SERVICE: the free, and unequaled, wordpressdotcom is unsurpassed

Subject: [WordPress #ZRP-768006]: [unknown] [reinkefj.wordpress.com] Maybe I’m obtuse How do I put a table in a post?
Howdy!
There is currently no icon to insert a table. You must do this through the HTML view and actually type the tags. Please check out the following resource:

Best,

MEDIAWIKI has is it and I was looking to do a table in RFL when I couldn’t find the icon I needed.
I just pasted a table from WORD and it worked. So …
This doesn’t change my opinion that the free, and unequaled, wordpressdotcom is unsurpassed.

RANT: Why Shakir Can’t Read

Why Shakir Can’t Read
By Helen Cadogan
*** begin quote ***
All across America, schools are confronted with Shakirs who either do not show up for school or who attend school but hang out in the hallways, bathrooms, and other hideaways. Even in well disciplined schools, there are Shakirs who go to class and put their heads on the desk. They refuse to work; the same way, their parents refuse to attend parent-teacher meetings. They sleep, they disrupt, curse, fight, and do no work. Many of those who do work, do it indifferently; they go through the motions expecting to achieve high marks for minimal effort. Moreover, even when these Shakirs have done no work at all, they expect to graduate.
*** end quote ***
But, I am robbed to pay for this nonsense?
Welfare is the root of this evil. And, the Gooferment loves welfare. It empowers Gooferment on so many levels: willing voters who vote for more dole; more dole requires more state workers; and of course there are contracts to give out as political plums.
Argh!

GUNS: “… when they pry it from my cold dead hand!”

Thoughts on guns
***Begin Quote***
“Because firearms are often used in crime, it is incumbent on gun manufacturers to constantly evaluate the risks to public health and safety of the products they design,” the organization says. “The industry must stop supplying the market with guns which are attractive to criminals and which have no legitimate civilian use.”
*** end quote ***
MY RESPONSE:
Excuse me. “… which have no legitimate civilian use.”
The Dead Old White Guys wanted you to have a gun so that you could exercise the ultimate restraint on the Government thugs.
Sorry to be crass, blunt, or just down right hard. But, liberals, such as yourself, seem to forget history. You need that “V8 thunk”.
A Jew being marched to the gas chamber. Cambodia’s killing fields. Stalin’s purges of the farmers. Mao leaping forward of the bodies of those who got in the way. Rawanda, Somalia, … and on and on!
When the populace is disarmed; genocide follows.
So imagine 1930’s Germany, with the first armed Jew in his apartment being extracted by a Nazi storm trooper, he gets only the first one coming in the door. He and his family are killed, but they were dead anyway. BUT, who’s going to be the first storm trooper through the next door. If every Jewish family had a gun and used it, the Nazi’s would have rapidly run out of storm troopers.
That’s what the Dead Old White Guys were trying to give posterity. The ultimate check on government!
“legitimate civilian use” is anything you can use to kill that government thug coming to take you to the death camps.
Don’t say it can’t happen here. It has. Look at the miniaturization of police, the Waco disaster, Ruby Ridge, the Japanese Internment, and on and on.
I really hope you never have the experience of being on the wrong side of this example. I may be, but “… when they pry it from my cold dead hand!”

Airport Tyranny
By Walter E. Williams
***Begin Quote***
The TSA routinely confiscates about 15,000 items a day from passengers, in addition to the hassle, rudeness and arrogance. With these kind of costs imposed on the traveling public, I’d like TSA to give an account of themselves, namely just how many hijackings or bombings they have prevented, along with the evidence. Americans have been far too compliant and that has given the TSA carte blanche to treat travelers any way they wish. I’m staying away. TSA has its rules and Williams has his, and one of mine is to avoid tyrants and idiots.
***End Quote***
My recent trip to Iowa by air gave me a close look at the TSA. And, a compliant public.
Were the Jews this compliant when they were loaded on the freight cars?
Where is the outrage?
Some incidents that my wife mentioned to me as absurd. (So you know it wasn’t just my tin foil hat being on tilt)
(1) Three little children carry almost empty drink bottles being admonished in a very hostile way to “THROW THOSE AWAY!”. The first thing Frau Reinke objected to was the tone. These were little kids who wouldn’t know a TSA rule from and AST elur! The next was the absurdity. And, finally, she thought the TSA agent should be addressing MOM; not the children.
(2) She spotted a stewardess waltz through the checkpoint with a bottle of water.
(3) The OLD old man being gone over with a fine tooth comb.
(4) Another man had a beep in his thigh. The ever alert TSA agent finally just gave up. After sticking his hand in the man’s pocket and feeling his clothes. The agent should have at least bought the fellow dinner.
(5) All the people running around in TSA garb. And the “grab assing” (Her words. I swear. And she usually doesn’t use language like that.)
Her final and best observation: “What terrorist is going to come to Omaha to takeover a plane. They would stand out like a sore thumb.”
To all her comments, I merely replied “Your tax dollars at work.” Which made her mad at me. But as a little L libertarian, I’m tired of people poke sticks in my cage. Time to pick up a gun yet? When you grab yours, I’ll be right behind you with mine. Till then, I don’t give a damn.

*** begin quote ***
Son, we live in a world that has walls, and those walls have to be guarded by men with guns. Who’s gonna do it? You? You, Lieutenant Weinberg? I have a greater responsibility than you can possibly fathom. You weep for Santiago, and you curse the Marines. You have that luxury. You have the luxury of not knowing what I know — that Santiago’s death, while tragic, probably saved lives; and my existence, while grotesque and incomprehensible to you, saves lives.
You don’t want the truth because deep down in places you don’t talk about at parties, you want me on that wall — you need me on that wall.
We use words like “honor,” “code,” “loyalty.” We use these words as the backbone of a life spent defending something. You use them as a punch line.
I have neither the time nor the inclination to explain myself to a man who rises and sleeps under the blanket of the very freedom that I provide and then questions the manner in which I provide it.
I would rather that you just said “thank you” and went on your way. Otherwise, I suggest you pick up a weapon and stand the post. Either way, I don’t give a DAMN what you think you’re entitled to!
*** end quote ***
I have nether the time nor the inclination to explain ‘rights’ to anyone. I would rather you spoke up to the powers that be. I suggest that you pick up a weapon and defend your rights. Either way, neither I, nor anyone else, cares what you think they are if you are not going to stand up for yourself. I know I am an oppressed slave. What’s your excuse?

McBookaire: Stupidity is a good way to leave yourself without power.
Friday, June 27, 2008Last night, didn’t notice the plug was out and McBa was sitting in hibernate. Today noticed it. Battery is under a quarter. Wonder what happens when it goes flat? Any way, cant take it with me today to doc office because it’s so low. Maybe that is a design problem. It should shutdown after hibernate for say an hour?

Money: Visited a bank; cd rates are nuts!
Friday, June 27, 2008
| Term | Rate |
| Money Market | .275 |
| 3 Months | .250 |
| 7 Months | .275 |
| 13 Months | .225 |
| 16 Months | .350 |
| 2 Years | .325 |
| 3 Years | .425 |
| 5 Years | .500 |
This table makes little sense to me. Money Market pays more than a 90 day CD? Seven, thirteen, and sixteen month terms? 125 basis points for a delta of three months on the 13 month CD. One hundred basis points for an extra year off the 2 year CD BUT only 75 basis points for two more years off the 3 years CD.
And, they make no effort to teach their Customers about a CD ladder and eliminating interest term sensitivity on your “mad money”. ANd minimizing interest rate risk.
(Ohh you don’t understand that concept? You should always have an emergency fund of some number of months of your run rate. Then a base of savings. Then investments. In your ‘savings tier’, how could you always be earning the Five Year CD rate? Yup, five five year CDs with different maturities. You can always get it by paying a small penalty. How do I do that? Each year on your birthday, you scrape up all your change and go get a Five Year CD. On your sixth birthday, you roll it over and add a little to it. You are an adult; aren’t you? When you get to 20k$, you move it to a different bank. FDIC insurance 100k. What do you think pension funds, insurance compnaies, and brokerages do?)
Now, we all know why I’m not running a bank! I’d try and use my ad dollars to explain how to ‘save’.
