More Daddy State

http://www.sltrib.com/ci_11612979

When liberals do it, it is a nanny state, when conservatives do it, I suppose it is because they want to be your Dad.

Mad Rocket Scientist gave me a heads up on this because it is local.

I’ve met Waddoups. I expect better than this, but I shouldn’t be surprised. Utahn’s absolutely hate big government from the left, but we have a contingent here that loves big government when it comes from our side. Some people just aren’t happy unless their meddling in someone’s business.

Mojo Philter's first live gig. If you're in SLC, come on out

http://mojophilter.wordpress.com/2009/02/02/first-mojo-philter-gig/

My buddy’s band is playing their first live gig. Now I know that a lot of you automatically assume that some random dude’s band is going to totally suck, but I’ve known Tom for a long time. We worked together at Hugenormous-Music-Gargantua Inc.  I was an accountant and Tom was a high mackdaddy of all things guitar.  I know that he is absolutely amazing on a guitar, and I’m excited to hear him play.

Pork Pork Porkety PORK!

I’ve been told that because of the state of economy, the government has to do SOMETHING!!!!

 

Well, apparently, that something is the largest pork bill in history. This thing is made of pig stacked on top of pig, sheathed in bacon, bristling with radioactive pork chops, and cemented together with mortar made of Spam and aerosol cheese. Altogether it is a hulking behemoth of porcine evil capable of simultaneously kicking the living shit out of Godzilla, King Kong, and Gamera the Space Turtle without breaking a sweat.

 

This is the biggest single spending bill in history. Congress debated it for less than an hour.

 

I don’t know about you guys, but when I think about what will create jobs, I immediately think of $150,000,000 for bee insurance. I think about billions of dollars going to the frauds at ACORN. I think of 20 billion for foodstamps, billions for arts and entertainment, billions for abortion and contraceptives, billions going to already rich major universities, billions more to go to Pell Grant so that those major universities can just jack up tuition again, billions for every retarded moronic idiotic stinking stupid thing you can think of, and why the hell not? It’s only OUR money.

 

It isn’t a stimulus plan, it is just a giant list of stuff the Democrats have wanted forever and payoffs to the various douche bags who colluded to get Obama elected. So it is a tiny bit worse than the idiotic Republican plan that consisted of giving money to stupid companies so that the managers could still get their billions in bonuses.  Our government is insane.

 

We’re heading down a very bad road here and I’m not sure where it is going to end up.

MHI sample chapter just got Digged

Okay, I’m not really familiar with Digg, but I just noticed a bunch of hits coming in for my posted sample chapter of MHI.

If I understand it right, if you like something, you Digg it, so that other people will see that it is cool. So basically it is to share the love.

Okay, so if you’re an MHI fan and you’re registered on Digg, could you do me a favor and Digg it? I need to sell me some books!
