   unfortunately this is the fable of the three little pigs who counted on the government to build the house of brick. each of these pigs put up a slapdash house of straw never counting on the wolf, and now want to jump into public assistance housing as the wolf chases their butts down the street. seems the old rules about thrift apply to even the biggest and brightest out there. perhaps we should begin embracing old math, and old values, and old morality, and old ways. just a thought.

   Yes Photoshop is fun, but ridicule is not the same thing as actual argument, or humor, or cleverness, as this site demonstrates every day.

    Like everything else, they are comming into their own the longer they are around. Facebook is not just a community of kids anymore, serves other purposes as well. I haven’t gotten on twitter, but I’ve heard the name dropped more and more these days.

    Yesterday on Cavuto, I saw one former UAW worker trying to organize a boycott of Alabama because of Sen. Shelby’s stance on the bailout.

    Since UAW workers make $73 bucks an hour but the big three are asking for money anyways, I wrote GM and told them I’m no longer buying any GM models… ever.

    If they have the audacity to ask for money but pay a total of $73/hour to their workers, I’m obviously paying a ton in markup.

    So long, American auto makers. I’m going German or Japanese from now on.

    Yes, because the substantative columns, entries, and responses don’t count, right, lgm?

    I used to have a sense of pride about buying American. Especially when it comes to trucks. But, aside from 1/2, 3/4 and 1 ton trucks, the Big 3 just can’t get it together. And don’t even get me started on Harley!

    After a year spent denigrating President Bush, VP Cheney, John McCain, and Sarah Palin and her family, LGM still felt the moral high-ground that only self-denial and pointless equivocation can bring to top himself with this little ditty:

    Right – sort of like the real political discussion over at Daily Kos or Democratic Underground. They’d never, never stoop to ridiculing some one of the opposite political position with photoshop – no never.

    I spend too mush time on MySpace. I have a Facebook (its better), but if I really used it, it would suck all the remaining freetime that I have.

    And since the girl I am seeing is still in college, all of her friends are on Facebook and would swamp me in updates. I just dont care anymore about who had a party last week and ended up passing out drunk.

    If I want to “denigrate” Bush, I complain about torture, lies, and incompetence. I don’t photoshop his head onto Porky Pig.

    UVa readies wish list for stimulus money

    On December 17th, 2008 at 1:05 pm, b-cat said:

    The urgency to compile the projects comes as UVa President John T. Casteen III added his name to a list of 40 other high-ranking university and college officials who’ve called for Congress to commit $40 billion to $45 billion in economic-stimulus money to higher education.

    “That investment initially should focus on infrastructure: building essential classroom and research buildings and equipping them with the latest technologies,” states the letter, issued by the Carnegie Corp. of New York on behalf of college officials.

    UVA has money and uses it to buy real estate and on construction projects.

    It also said any federal money should be funneled to the states, based on population, for distribution to colleges and universities. In addition, governors — not the state legislatures — would approve projects for funding, the letter said.

    Sorry western states, you’re out.
    Va has a liberal governor but a somewhat conservative legislature. Coincidence I’m sure.

    My local Community College put a referendom (or and initiative–whichever is the one that authorizes bond issues) on the ballot to fund a huge expansion of the classroom capacity. It failed. Oddly, the construction began anyway and instead of it all happening at once it will be incremental. Gee, guess this small local college is a whole lot smarter than the big Univerisities looking for Federal $$$$.

    Anybody notice that we are now in the farm equipment business? It seems to fit with the 3 Pigs theme.

    Today, the government guaranteed John Deere’s $2 Billion Debt Offering.

    So, worst case scenario, when the socialists start starving the pockets of resistance in rural America, they will already own the tractors they will need to turn the crops under.

    Things I’m sure no Democrat could ever be accuse of, eh, LGM?

    Never mind that Jimmy Carter defines incompetence; the Clintons, lies; and as far as torture goes, who knows what happened in Vietnam & Laos under Kennedy and LBJ.
