"Unlimited tolerance must lead to the disappearance of tolerance. If we extend unlimited tolerance even to those who are intolerant, if we are not prepared to defend a tolerant society against the onslaught of the intolerant, then the tolerant will be destroyed, and tolerance with them." - Karl Popper

“Necessity is the plea for every infringement of human freedom. It is the argument of tyrants. It is the creed of slaves.” - William Pitt

"Logic. There is little logic among the cultural elite, maybe because there is little omnipresent fear of job losses or the absence of money, and so arises a rather comfortable margin to indulge in nonsense." - Victor Davis Hanson

A talking frog??

A guy is 72years old and loves to fish.

He was sitting in his boat the other day when he heard a voice say,

'Pick me up.'

He looked around and couldn't see anyone.

He thought he was dreaming when he heard the voice say again,

'Pick me up.'

He looked in the water and there, floating on the top, was a frog.

The man said, 'Are you talking to me?'

The frog said, 'Yes, I'm talking to you.'

Pick me up then, kiss me and I'll turn into the most beautiful woman you have ever seen.

I'll make sure that all your friends are envious and jealous because I will be your bride!'

The man looked at the frog for a short time,

reached over, picked it up carefully, and placed it in his front pocket.

The frog said, 'What, are you nuts? Didn't you hear what I said? I said kiss me and I will be your beautiful bride.'

He opened his pocket, looked at the frog and said,

'Nah, at my age I'd rather have a talking frog.'

A simple request

This is a simple request from a Marine Corp Chaplin from DC. And as you fulfill this request think about adding all Service men and women to your prayers

Ride Safe,

urgent message

We are asking everyone to say a prayer for "Darkhorse" 3rd Battalion 5th Marines and their families. They are fighting it out in Afghanistan & they have lost 9 marines in 4 days. IT WOULD BE NICE TO SEE the message spread if more could past it on.


Semper Fi, God Bless America and God Bless the United States Marine Corps...

Instrument landing at night

I was watching the History Channel earlier. The program was about the ten most dangerous airports in the world..

Best I could tell, Aspen didn't make the list, or maybe I missed it.

Now I am a firm believer that all landings that you walk away from are good, so I decided to repost this video showing improvements in night landing technology. I haven't kept up so I have no idea as to when, or if, this will show up in the cockpit, but it is impressive.

The video is split screen allowing you to see what the pilot sees with and without the display.

Enjoy. And next time you fly into Aspen at night in the snow, think about those hills to the right.. and if the pilot decides to take you back to Denver.... Don't bitch.

Wikileaks and Hoyer and other low lifes and ramblings

Bits and pieces….. 11/30/10 to 12/1/10 AM

Windy and chilly. I spent a great deal of time Sunday afternoon mulching leaves, which leaves a mess. When we get home I will hook up the bagger to the John Deere and clean up the mess.

Obama has had months to close down Wikileaks and he has done nothing. This makes me think he doesn’t care. Heck, we know he doesn’t.

Congressman King wants to name Wikileaks a terrorist organization and shut it down. Works for me…… Now, watch all the Lefties scream “Freedom of speech!”

Someone has set a fire outside the Mosque attended by the Xmas Tree Bomber. Dumb and dumber. That gives cover to terrorists by detracting from what he did. Plus, it is just 100% wrong,.

Earlier I posted a video of David Horowitz exposing a Muslim Student Association member for what she is. If you haven’t seen it, please do so.

Obama wants to freeze federal pay for two years. I got a better idea. Freeze it for two years, cut headcount by 10% and no new hires for two years….. Military excluded (if you have to ask).
Our esteemed Demo Hoyer wants to include military.

What an ahole.

This morning we had a knock on the hotel room door where we are staying: “House Keeping!” was heard with a Spanish accent.

Opening door I replied: “We won’t be checking out for two more hours!”

With a puzzled look the lady said: “I don’t understand English.”

Glad I am not running for Governor.

We must not have any citizens looking for work.

Grumpy. Some thief got my American Express account number and tried to use it yesterday. Thiefie was gonna use it to load some minutes on thiefie’s cell phone.

Happy: AX security nailed it. Gave me a call and the charges and is sending me a new card. Every now and then things work the way they are supposed to.
