It's Slice And Dice Time

An early light dinner and early to bed. It will be a very early morning and a long couple of days before I'm back in the saddle again.

I'm going with the mechanical valve.

I'll blog when I can.

Be good.

Secessionists And Their Damn Fool Ideas

Secessionists meeting in Tennessee
"We believe that an independent South, or Hawaii, Alaska, or Vermont
would be better able to serve the interest of everybody, regardless of race or
ethnicity," said Michael Hill of Killen, Ala., president of the League of the
South.

I lost a lot of family on both sides the last time this was tried. My great-grandfather grew a long beard to hide his shattered chin and jaw, but he considered himself lucky because the only limb they didn't amputate during the civil war was the head.

I cherish my Southern heritage and have made sure my children have read accurate histories of the lead up to the War of Northern Aggression, the war and its aftermath. I despise the drunks and the fools that spout off about southern this and southern that. Booze, beliefs and buffoons do not mix well.

Weakening America at this time is a liberal's moron's dream.

I could see Vermont, in their smug self righteousness, actually believing they'd be better off, but The League of the South is just making money.

Goracle UnClear On China Big 3

Al Gore stated that:

"We can’t sell our cars in China today because we don’t meet the
Chinese emissions standards."

But, but, the NYT's didn't get the memo:

More Big 3 Cars to China

Published: November 12, 2003
General Motors, Ford Motor and DaimlerChrysler said yesterday that they had reached agreements with China to import more cars and trucks built in the United States. The automakers want to raise their market share in China, which may pass Germany this year as the No3 vehicle market behind the United States and Japan.

Are we even sure Al Gore's name is Al Gore?

I'm not.

"Kill the terrorists, secure the border, and give me back my freedom."

President Thompson
After a recent Thompson speech in Iowa a member of the audience called
out: "Kill the terrorists, secure the border, and give me back my freedom."
Thompson replied "you just summed up my whole speech."

That just summed up my support.
