Yesterday I spent the entire day getting Norton off my system and installing Ad-Aware Pro. The initial scan took over four hours, but if found four items that Norton had let through. Today I have a lot of catch-up tasks to do here. I am current on replies.
Jig Zone Puzzle:
Today it took me 3:09 (average 4:14) To do it, click here. How did you do?
Short Takes:
From Boston Globe: The top Democrat in the Senate on budget matters said yesterday he is preparing a fiscal blueprint to slash the deficit by $4 trillion over the upcoming decade — a plan built on the bipartisan findings of President Obama’s deficit commission.
I’ll withhold judgment until I see the plan, but since Senator Conrad is an accursed DINO, I anticipate a real stinker.
From FOK News Channel: Keith’s Worsts for yesterday.
All are heinous, but Batshit B is a good pick.
From Right Wing Watch: Judson Phillips, the head of Tea Party Nation, yesterday attacked President Obama for announcing the death of Osama bin Laden during Donald Trump’s Celebrity Apprentice and for not wrapping his corpse in pig fat.
Teabuggery most foul! Cutting of Trump is America’s Blessing. The fool wants us to assist AQ’s recruitment by offending Muslims everywhere.
Cartoon:
Have a Teabuggered hump day! (That was not intended to be a factual statement.

3:45 You’re killing me with those 3 minute solves. I’m 43 out of 124 (347)
I’m a little further than three minutes today.
I’m not sure that re-electing Bachmann (as her district did last year) is a forgivable offense. I mean, really, I question democracy every time someone like her gets voted in for another term in office.
Hiya, Stimpson. It is a wonderment. Perhaps some parts of Minnesota practice inbreeding.
I cleaned all the shit off my computer that has been bugging me for a while (yahoo messager, stupid shit on my desktop that I never use, etc. etc.), defragged it (you really have to look for that now (Windows hides these important things under categories you’d never think they’d be in – fyi, it’s under Administrator tools – who would have guessed), restarted it, removed some more shit, defragged it again. And now, it is SUPER FAST. All those tool bars and other stupid shit, really, really drag down your performance. I even looked at all my applications running (also under Admin tools) and got rid of more crap. My computer needed a spring cleaning and it got it. ❗
Umm, isn’t the President’s job to create the budget and Congress to vote on it? How many ‘plans’ are we up to now 6, 7 more? The President makes the budget and congress signs off on it or not. I know they are just trying to help and shit, but really, DIAL IT BACK. 🙄
Michele Bachmann is the worst person of the century, with Andrew Briebart a very close second. Taxes on millionaires and billionaires are not going to end the world Michele. And now you’ve added world class stupid to your resume. Andrew Briebart isn’t qualified to run a hot dog stand or hold any meaningful job. The next time he makes a video of something, it should be completely disregarded and the person or people he made the video of should sue his ass into oblivion. Let’s see how well that sits with him. 😡
Ok, if your life revolves around Celebrity Apprentice, you should get a new life. Secondly, I agree that Osama was a king sized douchebag, but wrapping him in pork fat is just wrong. How about we wrap YOU in pig fat and dump you off the side of South Africa, where all the great white sharks are? How about that? Dumass. 😡
I love that cartoon! 😉
Haven’t you been busy! In the process of repairing problems, I’ve done all the same things, and this is the fastest this machine has ever run.
That’s not written in stone, Lisa. All financial legislation must begin in the House.
If anything, taxes on millionaires and billionaires might save the world.
I thought his life revolved around a comb-over. 🙄
Heh heh! 🙂
