SwampMan decided, since he was going into surgery Monday and would not be visiting restaurants for awhile, that he wanted to go to Red Lobster.

I saw most of the pilot episode of a new series last night on AMC. The promo had this tagline: “Not every conspiracy is a theory.” That’s pretty good. Right up there with, “Just because you’re paranoid doesn’t mean they’re not all out to get you.” Last night, Swampie asked if there were any back [...]

Illegal Immigrants Deported from Duval County between 10/28/08 and 7/14/10. Click to enlarge. I’d like to point out that Duval County, Florida, has been quietly deporting people that have criminal offenses for two years. So, is enforcement of immigration laws racist? Well, look at the picture. While Mexico had the single largest number of illegals [...]

We all thought Congressman Hank Johnson (D-GA) had it all wrapped up for his assertion that “Guam may tip over and capsize.” The Jeanyus of the Year award was all his, hands down. But, I suppose he just did it too early in the year. It’s like leaving too much time on the clock, and [...]

This came out when I was in junior high and was a sock hop favorite. I wish *I* was a sock hop favorite in junior high but, at 5’8″, I was about a foot taller than all the young men my age. By high school, I was a big AC/DC fan.

The key word is “recoverable.” Some coal cannot be recovered. Some is [...]
