George Carlin, RIP

June 23, 2008

I was priviledged to see him live once in the early 90s – he was in “funny’ mode back then, but that clip above was never truer.

Couple of these made, you could make your sequel to Serenity…

EDIT – More examples to take your breath away (look through the whole thread…)

David thinks the logo would look good on an armband – I disagree, and have enclosed a more appropriate seal that applies to their recent excesses…

Appleseed Qualify 7

June 16, 2008

My two best targets from Saturday – if I didn’t have to shoot the AOC target to qualify for Rifleman, I never would…

In fact, seeing that there is hope for me yet, I think I’m only going to shoot the AOC target once a month, and work on my aim with more high-contrast targets the rest of the time.

On Scalia’s Dissent

June 16, 2008

 

http://thinkprogress.org/2008/06/12/scalia-courts-decision-restoring-habeas-will-almost-certainly-cause-more-americans-to-be-killed/

I welcome the decision to allow habeas rights to the prisoners at Gitmo.  It would be absolutely scary if any further President would be able to imprison American citizens on his say-so.  But in regard to Scalia: if he really disagreed with the court this much, he could resign his seat on the Supreme Court, which I believe would send a strong message abut how wrong he thought this action was.

But he’s not, as of this writing. I like to imagine a member of the press asking him why he doesn’t take that very action.  In my opinion, he’d answer, “What – and give up show business?”

Apple’s NEW PRODUCT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

June 14, 2008

While reading http://stuffwhitepeoplelike.com/ I came across the following comment in entry #40 – Apple Products…


 

A capital idea!  I set about with my design team after I stopped laughing and here is the result!


 

The specs:

-A revolver – “they just work”.

-Shoots the new proprietary “.50 Apple Express” round (acquired in a round of buyouts and quickly retrofitted for use)

-webcam ready (in vers. 2.0) but can sync with your ipod via Bluetooth & iTunes right now

-2GB MP3 player + headphone jack

If the Apple Store in your area is closed in your area in the next couple weeks, it’s cause they’re stocking this!

(Note to Apple’s Litigation Dept. – the preceding was satire.)
