Not much to thrill you three remaining, steadfast, loyal readers with today, so er…
This is where we traditionally proceed to hammer out umpteen gazillion words anyway, but we really are drawing blanks.
Except a timely reminder of just exactly how much attention anybody should pay to anything coming out of the mouth of a celebrity, a gaggle of celebrities, or anybody not consumed by an immediate urge to strangle any celebrity monkey within seconds of his/her commencing to bloviate on anything outside of his/her area of expertise (measured in microns, for those of you interested in those things), we should like to remind you that, on this day back in 1990, the annual circle jerk known as “The Grammys” (because who ever expected that so-called creative people ought to be able to come up with creative names?) awarded Best New Artist to a revolutionary, groundbreaking, blisteringly brilliantly creative “talent.”
Milli Vanilli.
Yeah, that’s what we thought too. So now kindly sit the fuck down and shut the fuck up, entertainment monkeys, unless you intend to actually entertain us.
Oh, and we also heard that the socialist clusterfuck #3,552 in history formerly known as “Venezuela” is now a complete socialist clusterfuck, just like the 3,551 socialist clusterfucks out of 3,551 attempts at socialism that went before them. Quelle surprise! “Progressives”, toilet paper manufacturers hardest hit.
Thatisall, Open Thread.
The DiploMad wrote a bit on Venezuela on Wednesday. I don’t know if you read his stuff, but you might ought to.

I do, the guy is brilliant. And on my sidebar. Or used to be. DAFUQ??? Sorry, putting him right back in there.
I should link to him more often, though.
Just a reminder because it is beneficial…

I don’t know if you read his stuff, but you might ought to. found another site that I have to bookmark, that’s pretty good stuff over there.

Open thread – good – how about the subject of a radiation leak in Carlsbad, New Mexico? Crickets. Hearing nothing but crickets! http://www.hyscience.com/archives/2014/02/waste_isolation.php
Since insanity is defined as doing the same thing over and over and expecting a different result each time, maybe we should assume that all these asshats are just crazy, and treat them like that, i.e., fit them with wraparound canvas blazers, and medicate them heavily and often. Maybe get them a nice padded room somewhere quiet.
That was 1990? i thought it was earlier than that. ’87 I thought.

I can’t believe this is happening in TEXAS! PJ Media reported, “Federal Bureau of Investigations documents detailing a 22-site network of terrorist training villages sprawled across the United States. According to the documents, the FBI has been concerned about these facilities for about 12 years, but cannot act against them because the U.S. State Department has not yet declared that… Read more »
My sources tell me also that the compound is made up of mobile buildings that the group regularly rearranges, always positioning them in a way so that if law enforcement had to storm the compound, they would be sitting ducks with a sure tactical disadvantage.

Just saw a notice announcing that CNN’s dropping Piers Gaveston’s show thanks to low ratings.
Meanwhile the post-posting edit function here still doesn’t work.
Xystus, you must be a history buff. Piers Gaveston was the “favorite” of Edward II and he offended so many nobles that they hunted him down and beheaded him. It was later rumoured that Edward had been killed by the insertion of a piece of copper into his anus (later a red-hot iron rod, as in the supposed murder of… Read more »

Yes & yes. Wanted to call him Piers Plowman after a old work of English literature, then decided I should instead label him after a famous loser.
LC Xystus @ #16:
Just call him “Wanker-boy”, Xystus
When, oh when will the editor function be fixed??
Completely off-topic but I thought this crowd might laugh.
(Mods, if this does not work, feel free to look or pull the tag or whatever.)
Well, the click to edit doesn’t work either, so let’s try this:
