NYPD Advises Women to Avoid Wearing Skirts

The Several Kinds of Congress, According to Kamasutra

According to Kamasutra:

Congress is of the following kinds:

Loving congress
Congress of subsequent love
Congress of artificial love
Congress of transferred love
Congress like that of eunuchs
Deceitful congress
Congress of spontaneous love

Question is, which kind is the US Congress?

I guess it takes all kinds.

A Curs-ory Look at 18th Century Vocabulary

I suppose that when the going got tough, even the Founders started swearing.  But how?

Here is a dictionary of 18th century vocabulary.  That source is light on swear words, but some other sources (more emphasis on 19th century, but you can extrapolate some of the words used early in or throughout the 19th) are located: here, here, and here. 

Some of my favorites:

• damn: a more powerful swear word in the nineteenth century than now. Acceptable euphemisms included blame, dang, darn, dern, ding, and others. Gol was sometimes used as an euphemistic prefix, e.g., the Golderned idiots.
• nation/tarnation/tarnal (euphemism for damnation): tarnal: a Yankee swear word, ftom the 1700s on. 1825: 1 know your tarnal rigs inside and out, says 1. John Neal, Brother Jonathan, i, p. 158. 1801: The Americans say, Tarnation seize me, or swamp me, if I don't do this or that. Colonel G. Haner, Life, ii, p.151
• blame: euphemism for damn, used throughout the century and especially in New England. 1840s: I wasn't goin'to let Dean know; because he'd have thought him- self so blam'd cunning. Mrs. Claver's Western Clearings, P. 70
• dad: a euphemistic form of God, e.g., dad-blame it.  1834: I'll be dad shamed if it ain't all cowardice
• Nancy, Nancy-boy: an effeminate man, from 1800 on. 
• Jesse: hell. To give one Jesse is to give one hell or to beat the hell out of him.  1845: He turned on the woman and gave her Jesse.

While we at times speak in the Founder's tongue, let us also put our own stamp on the nation's language.  I've been using DEMONRAT for quite awhile, and more recently DAMNOCRAT, and now I might add NANCY-CRAT.

New Self-Defense Tool for Hikers (Recommended by OC Sheriff Hutchens)

Depicted at left is a new self-defense tool recommended by OC Sheriff Sandra Hutchens. Hiking? Just spray this stuff on your kids to protect them from wild animals! (Use liberally.)

-----------------------------------

From a new article by Prof. John Lott, published today by Fox: Why We Shouldn't Fear an End to the Ban on Guns In National Parks:

Police are extremely important in deterring crime — according to my research, the most important factor. But the police almost always arrive after the crime has been committed. In national parks, with vast land areas and few roads, this problem is exacerbated. Even if one can quickly reach park rangers by using a cell phone, it can be hours before they can arrive at the crime scene.

Wild animals also sometimes do attack humans, and guns can come in handy...

It may sound absurd. But President Obama signed a bill into law Wednesday that requires passengers who carry firearms aboard Amtrak be locked in boxes for their journey. It's a mistake in the law's wording. But for now, the clerical error is the law of the land.

Seasoned Citizens Frolic in Fountain of Youth

Email from concerned citizens:

Working people frequently ask retired people what they do to make their days interesting.
Well, for example, the other day my wife and I went into town and went into a shop.
We were only in there for about 5 minutes. 
When we came out, there was a cop writing out a parking ticket.
We went up to him and said, 'Come on man, how about giving a senior citizen a break?'

He ignored us and continued writing the ticket.  I called him a Nazi.  He glared at me and started writing another ticket for having worn  tires.

So my wife called him a sh*t-head. He finished the second ticket and put it on the windshield with the first. Then he started writing a third ticket. This went on for about 20 minutes. The more we abused him, the more tickets he wrote.

Personally, we didn't care.  We came into town by bus and the car had an Obama sticker.  We try to have a little fun each day now that we're retired.  It's important at our age.

Difficult Times

 

As the CEO of this organization, I have resigned myself to the fact that Barrack Obama is our President and that our taxes and goverment fees will increase in a Big way.  To compensate for these increases, our prices would have to increase by about 10%.  But since we cannot increase our prices right now due the dismal state of the economy, we will have to lay off sixty of our employees instead.  This has really been bothering me, since I believe we are family here and I didn't know to choose who would have to go.

 

So, this is what I did.  I walked through our parking lots and found sixty "Obama" bumper stickers on our employees' cars and have decided these folks will be the ones to let go.  I can't think of a more fair way to approach this problem. They voted for change, I gave it to them. I will see the rest of you at the annual company picnic.

Res Ipsa Loquitur, as Applied to RKBA?

            One morning, the husband returns the boat to their lakeside cottage after several hours of fishing and decides to take a nap. 
Although not familiar with the lake, the wife decides to take the boat out. She motors out a short distance, anchors, puts her feet up, and begins to read her book. The peace and solitude are magnificent. 
Along comes a Fish and Game Warden in his boat. 
He pulls up alongside the woman and says,
                  'Good morning, Ma'am. What are you doing?' 
             'Reading a book,' she replies, 
                                       (thinking, 'Isn't that obvious?'). 
            'You're in a Restricted Fishing Area,' he informs her. 
'I'm sorry, officer, but I'm not fishing. I'm reading.' 
           'Yes, but I see you have all the equipment.
                      For all I know you could start at any moment. 
                                   I'll have to take you in and write you up.' 
'If you do that, I 'll have to charge you with sexual assault,' says the woman. 
    'But I haven't even touched you,' says the GameWarden. 
           'That's true, but you have all the equipment. For all I know you could start at any moment.' 
           'Have a nice day ma'am,' and he left.

Atheist Holiday Coming Up! (:-)

In Florida, an atheist became incensed over the preparation of Easter
and Passover holidays.  He decided to contact his lawyer about the
discrimination inflicted on atheists by the constant celebrations
afforded to Christians and Jews with all their holidays while atheists
had no holiday to celebrate.

The case was brought before a judge.  After listening to the long
passionate presentation by the lawyer, the Judge banged his gavel and
declared, 'Case dismissed!'

The lawyer immediately stood and objected to the ruling and said, 'Your
honor, how can you possibly dismiss this case?  The Christians have
Christmas, Easter and many other observances.  Jews have Passover, Yom
Kippur and Hanukkah...yet my client and all other atheists have no such
holiday!'

The judge leaned forward in his chair and simply said, 'Obviously your
client is too confused to even know about, much less celebrate his own
atheists' holiday!'

The lawyer pompously said, 'Your Honor, we are unaware of any such
holiday for atheists. Just when might that holiday be, your Honor?'

The judge said, 'Well it comes every year on exactly the same
date---April 1st!  Since our calendar sets April 1st as 'April Fools
Day,' consider that Psalm 14:1 states, 'The fool says in his heart,
there is no God.'  Thus, in my opinion, if your client says there is no
God, then by scripture, he is a fool, and April 1st is his holiday! Now
have a good day and get out of my courtroom!!

How do you answer that, Mr. Heller?” The initial answer certainly wasn’t expected – Dick Heller laughed. Ruefully. Pointing at the Mayor who was making his way across the plaza, surrounded by at least six DC police officers, Heller said, “the Mayor doesn’t know what he’s talking about.” “He doesn’t walk on the street like an average citizen. Look at him; he travels with an army of police officers as bodyguards – to keep him safe. But he says that I don’t have the right to be a force of one to protect myself. Does he look like he thinks the streets are safe?” There was no follow-up question.

Anekdoty Only Remaining Antidote

A joke circulating among Russians these days has Vladimir Putin and Dmitry Medvedev waking up in the Kremlin in 2023 with a vicious hangover.

Putin says to Medvedev: “Which of us is president and which of us is prime minister today?”

“I don’t remember,” Medvedev replies. “I could be prime minister today.”

“Then go fetch some beer,” Putin says.

and this:

Putin takes Medvedev to a restaurant and orders a steak. “What about the vegetable?” the waiter asks. Putin looks at Medvedev and says, “The vegetable will have steak, too.”   

Starbucks' Liberal Promise of Perfection

This reminds me of a recent article in CRPA's Firing Line, about how conservatives recognize the world is not perfect and use ISO Standard 9******** ("very, very good"), whereas liberals use a standard of "perfection" -- a beautiful model since the inevitable failure of liberal solutions inevitably results in ever more need for additional liberal solutions.  BTW, several Starbucks regulars told me when they stopped by Starbucks this morning, after last night's meeting to achieve the promised perfection, their Starbucks could not provide them with coffee due to failure to start/clean the machines the previous night.
