Any surprise that I rated it “unsatisfactory”.

I don’t want two clicks. I want one after I sign in.

Repeating how to do it is just torture.

And, I suspect a “canned” bot.

No wonder they are going broke.

POLITICAL: Herman Cain is no Bill Clinton

Monday, December 5, 2011

http://www.mrc.org/bozellcolumns/columns/2011/20111201101710.aspx

Let’s Kill Cain’s Campaign
Liberal reporters feel Herman Cain is no Bill Clinton. So there’s no reason to delay adultery charges. They rushed on the air with the claims, followed by sneering political death notices.

*** begin quote ***

Ginger White’s charges sound a lot like Gennifer Flowers in 1992 saying she has a 12-year affair with Bill Clinton. So many in the press pounce on Flowers as unequivocal evidence of the media’s sense of balance.

*** end quote ***

Like there was any doubt that there was a difference between Bill Clinton’s treatment and that of Herman Cain.

RANT: Lautenberg parrots the D talking points

Monday, December 5, 2011

*** begin quote ***

Dear Mr. John:

Thank you for contacting me about taxes. I appreciate hearing from you on this important issue.

On August 2, the “Budget Control Act of 2011” (P.L. 112-25) was signed into law. This law allows the debt limit to be increased by up to $2.1 trillion. In conjunction with this increase, deficits must be decreased by at least $2.1 trillion over 10 years. This law generates $0.9 trillion in initial deficit reduction over 10 years through spending cuts rather than tax increases. At least $1.2 trillion in additional deficit reduction will be identified by the newly-established Congressional Joint Select Committee on Deficit Reduction. This bipartisan committee is charged with presenting a deficit reduction plan by late November, which must receive an up or down vote in both chambers of Congress by the end of the year. If the committee fails to produce a plan, or if the committee’s plan fails to attract the support of a majority of the House and Senate, additional spending cuts of $1.2 trillion over 10 years will automatically occur.

Please be assured that I will be closely monitoring the recommendations of the Joint Committee and I will keep your concerns in mind as this issue receives further consideration by the Senate. Thank you again for contacting me.

Argh!

GUNS: When a Tyrannosaurs Rex rampages through your neighborhood … …

Sunday, December 4, 2011

http://www.theblaze.com/stories/want-to-see-a-customized-700-caliber-dinosaur-hunting-rifle-in-action/

*** begin quote ***

According to Firearm Blog, the rifle has a “16.25″ barrel, can push the 1132 grain of lead up to 2300 fps. Thats 13,000 ft/lbs of energy, right up there with the .50 BMG and far exceeding the .700 Nitro Express. The cast lead bullet has enough energy to pass clean through a 1/4″ steel plate.

When a Tyrannosaurs Rex rampages through your neighborhood, this would seem to be the perfect tool for the job.

Way kool!

GOVEROTRAGEOUS: Minimum house size?

Sunday, December 4, 2011

http://tinyhouseblog.com/tiny-house/%E2%80%9Ctiny%E2%80%9D-a-short-documentary-about-living-small/

“TINY”: A (short) Documentary about Living Small
by Kent Griswold on November 27th, 2011
Guest Post by Merete Mueller, co-director and producer of the film.

*** begin quote ***

“TINY: A Story About Living Small” is a short documentary about Christopher Smith’s process of building a tiny house from scratch with no building experience in the mountains of Colorado. The film also follows the lives of other families around the country who have downsized their lives to less than 400 square feet.

*** and ***

That cabin turned into a tiny house on wheels when he learned that building codes in Park County, Colorado would require him to build a house of at least 600-square feet. He realized that a house on wheels would allow him to bypass these laws, and the more that he learned about tiny houses, the more he liked the idea of minimally impacting the land he had bought by simply parking his small home on it, instead of digging a foundation into the ground.

*** end quote ***

Doesn’t anyone else find this “absurd”?

In the era of conspicuous consumption, homelessness, and unsaleable McMansions, why not “small”?

It seems that “tiny” houses can be done for well under 100k$.

Guess this doesn’t make the tax collectors happy or the builders.

What’s wrong with youngsters going back to the land and building something they can afford?

Make me ask what is the purpose of a building code anyway? Make work for politicians and bureaucrats. Not like they stand behind their “inspections”. Just watch “Holmes on Homes” or do a project with contractors that require permits and “inspections”.

What a joke!

Except that we pay for it in so many many ways.

Couldn’t we have a “village of tiny houses” without it being a “shanty town”. Instead of “projects” or “dormitories”, tiny houses.

Homes that people can afford.

SERVICE: GOOOGLE READER changes silently

Sunday, December 4, 2011

http://www.jasperjottings.com/2011/jj2011W49.html

Lots of techie problems this week and it shows. Took almost 5 hours to do what normally takes 45 minutes.

Biggest problem is that GOOGLE READER changed. Silently, no notice. Now I can NOT cut ‘n’ paste an expanded series of stories.

No way; no how.

Chrome, Firefox, and Opera — all act the same.

Why I don’t like “the cloud”!!!
