Stinking Hippie Nutcases! "Gene Replacement Therapy"
What are the odds?
As a 40-something year old going on 50-something year old (so old enough to rermember the good aspects of being a hippie) it just kills me when fucking morons like Esther Fielding decide to deal with their own impending mortality by going alt-hippie-insane.
Well, only if they have kids. If they don't they can knock themselves out.
Preferably in water deep enough to drown in.
But guess what mom? If you go fucking insane? So will your kid.
So now Fielding (moms) is charged with being an accessory to the murder.
Really.. the crazy chick who believes that " Activating the ten latent strands of DNA opens the door to self-healing and self-actualization" had a crazy son and then did crazy shit with him? Makes no sense at all.
Crazy...
Here, for as long as it stays up, is Fielding's insane site
All that actualizing? Didn't seem to work out...
Fucking old hippies who have turned from the world to saving their own pathetic lives. Shit, there was a Who concert in Cincinnati with your name on it you old hag.
And you missed it.
Bummer.

Well that Explains a Lot!
Of the six universal emotions, four — anger, fear, disgust and sadness — are negative and only one, joy, is positive. (The sixth, surprise, is neutral.)

One Ring to Rule them All!

"Mr. Sauron. Table for one for Mr. Sauron!"
Links from Here and There....
Unexplained weight loss in older people might be an early signal of Alzheimer's disease, appearing several years before the memory lapses that define the illness, according to an intriguing but unproven new theory.
Repugnicants not ponying up...
An extraordinary appeal to Americans from the Bush administration for money to help pay for the reconstruction of Iraq has raised only $600 (£337), The Observer has learnt. Yet since the appeal was launched earlier this month, donations to rebuild New Orleans have attracted hundreds of millions of dollars.
All 400 idiots who still support the war show up and, tragically, a hurricane does not strike:
About 400 people gathered near a stage on an eastern segment of the mall, a large patchwork American flag serving as a backdrop. Amid banners and signs proclaiming support for U.S. troops, several speakers hailed the effort to bring democracy to Iraq and Afghanistan, and denounced those who protest itMy bumper Sticker:
If you believe in an "Intelligent Designer? You are Neither."

More Krazy Korean Killer Dog

we watch the fire pacifically (because we are by that ocean, you see) and suddenly there is a quick ruckus, the table is jerked about a half an inch, and we hear an sudden snapping sound. Look under the table to reveal:

The dog, tied up and all, has managed to catch and kill another small rodent. Add this to the opossum, two cats, and skunk (perhaps I'll take a picture of the skunk tomorrow and tell its short and ugly tale) and you have a pretty fast poodle.
Here is the mouse just after it signeed up to sing in the choir invisible:

that dog is scary...

Please don't eat the dying people...
Don't eat or drink or touch the patients.
And I'm extra worried.
The good news?
She's in Dallas so I don't care.
Top 5 things Tom DeLay Said that the press did not report
From the Houston Chronicle’s DomeBlog Tom DeLay taunts poor children. But, as usual, the liberal press didn't report it all. Here, in interests of a no spin zoning, are the top five other things old Tommie said.
5) DeLay met with a woman who had been raped and asked her if it wasn't just like playing "Spin the Bottle in High School?"
4) Delay met with a man whose mother had died in the Astrodome and asked if "they had ever seen that "Six Feet Under" show? All those dead people make me laugh!"
3) DeLay comforted a man who had been mugged by telling him that "most people have to pay a coach to learn to box."
2) After an elderly man complained he'd lived in poverty all his life, but at least he had a home, DeLay noted "sure, but now you can afford to come to the Astrodome."
1) As he left the Astrodome, stinking of gin, DeLay yelled "You're all invited to Trent's house!"
Then, in a puff of sulfurous smoke, he disappeared (oh, only if!)

A completely modest proposal: Rebuild the people who lived in New Orleans
Because building a city under sea-level and ringing it with protective earthworks is silly.
Anyone who builds a city where it is not safe?
They deserve what they get (Hastert – Sermon on the Mount).
I'm sure all of the Republi-cons who are now slowly shuffling over to this interpretation of reality are eagerly awaiting the destruction of Venice, Italy and Stockton, Ca just to name two cities in similar situations. Or not. Doesn't matter to me. Their focus on property damage is sickening and speaks of a lack of concern for humans.
What does matter to me is that we are supposed to be a nation and a nation at least theoretically looks out for its own. In New Orleans we haven't. Cleverer writers have noted the glacial pace of Federal response. Now the question is what to do?
I suggest we pay the people who have been wronged and destroyed by poor planning and non-existent response?
Everything, after all, has a money value. ;-)
So I did a little analysis.
The population of New Orleans was 484,674 or so. Prior to the flood. Take out the 10,000 or so the U.S. left to drown and you have 474,674 souls. According to the Census these folks were organized into 188,251 households. These are the numbers of the diaspora.
I propose the Federal Government should pay citizens for its lack of support of them.
So I looked at one-time money stolen from New Orleans and diverted to the war against common sense in Iraq (These numbers are far too small – Coast Guard reductions, removal of National Guard who could have protected the city, various other killed grants? I have no way to quantify them):
$ 21.5 million
Southeast Louisiana Urban Flood Control Project
http://www.swingstateproject.com/2005/08/katrina_proves.php
$ 71.2 million
New Orleans Corps Projects
http://www.findarticles.com/p/articles/mi_qn4200/is_20050606/ai_n14657367
$15 million
Lake Pontchartrain Shoring Project. http://www.mediainfo.com/eandp/news/article_display.jsp?vnu_content_id=1001051313
You can see we're starting to talk real money. That's a total of $107.7 million dollars looted directly from the budgets that kept New Orleans safe. And then there's the ongoing war against common sense:
$177 million per day in Iraq
Perhaps we could just take a three-day weekend off from further antagonizing the entire Muslim world?
I'm not any kind of cultural relativist or apologist for any of the horrors of Islamic rulers – I'm just saying we can double up on the killing and pissing-off on the next Tuesday. These are, after all, highly trained soldiers, right?
So, using Wellornomics, the savings on the "day-off" on the war and returning the money Bush looted would add up to $638.7 million.
Cash it out and give it to the victims of our poor preparation and worse response. That would add up to only about $3393.00 per household, but given that the average household income in New Orleans is under $30,000 per year, that would be a substantial chunk. Certainly enough to live for the next few months, which is the kind of problem that refugees face.
I'd note that this is just an analysis for New Orleans, and in no way do I mean to slight people in Biloxi, Luling, or even the Brett Farve household. Some mathematician and intarweb researcher smarter than I (not difficult to believe) can do all the math for everyone else. If it comes down to it our chickenhawk leaders might need to forfeit one or two more days of their personal pecker-hardening overseas adventures. Surely that is a contribution worth making?But it's time for those "compassionate" conservatives to step up and prove that their compassion can be showered upon those who don't live in oil-producing nations. And its time for them to prove their compassion can come from somewhere other than the barrel of a gun on an armored vehicle.
George?
