Haitian Hardship
It's hard to get a handle on what's happening in Haiti. I don't understand how such a horrendous earthquake can be so localized. And I've seen the Media reporting the death toll at 100,000 one time and 500,000 at another. Our prayers reach out for those unfortunate families in Port Au Prince.
Off the Wagon
I went off the wagon yesterday.
~
Big Time.
~
The first time in three weeks since I started this calorie counting business.
~
It started in the morning when I had some english muffins for breakfast and didn't work out on the Cybex because I had to leave for a customer meeting at 10:30 AM. We decided to work through lunch so we brought in pizzas for everybody. I had four slices and a diet Coke.
~
I still had a chance to salvage the day if I jumped on the Cybex when I got back to my office at 3:00PM, but had to get on a conference call at 3:30 that stretched for an hour.
~
By that time, I went up to see the grandkids with Joanne, and their uncle Mike showed up to have dinner with us. So I had roasted chicken, stuffing and salad that sent me way over the calorie budget. With a couple of after dinner drinks, I was completely busted, so I had a nacho snack before finally going to bed.
~
A 3500 calorie day when my budget is 2200 calories! I am weak and a bad man.
~
The good news is that I'm down 10 lbs. This calorie counting system works and I'm getting back in the wagon today.

Chicken Little
Remember two years ago??? We were supposed to all die of Bird Flu.
~
Then this year... we shifted to the Swine Flu which was supposed to be a global pandemic which would wipe a lot us out. Obama was teaching us to sneeze into our sleeves.
~
All the while, global warming was supposed to be killing us as soon as the polar bears were done in. Al Gore won an Academy Award because of it. The problem here is that it is freaking cold out there, and the European Global Summit in Copenhagen was snowed out. Florida fruit growers are going to be hit hard with frozen fruit due to the plunging temps.
~
Not to mention the myth that the American Health care system doesn't work, and that the Democrats will "fix" it.
~
Do you ever get the idea that the leftys are trying to scare the shit out of us? Kind of like, create a problem then offer themselves as the solution.
~
How many times do they expect us to swallow this Chicken Little, the Sky is Falling, Bullshit???
~
Let's send them a message from Massachusetts next Tuesday. They have the audacity to think that the US Senate seat that has been occupied by Ted Kennedy is their heirloom. Let's vote for Scott Brown and shock the shit out of these phonies.

- I am so glad that this blog supports Scott Brown. I cannot stand Martha Coakley!!!
Big Momentum
With less than a week to go in the Massachusetts US Senate special election, Scott Brown has tied Martha Coakley in the polls.
~
Obviously, the Nanepashemet Endorsement has put Scott in front of the Big Mo.
~
Coakley attack ads accuse Brown of being anti-liberal. That he actually doubts that Global Warming is caused by humans. That he wishes to kill Obama Health Care. Thanks for clarifying that.
~
Keep those ads coming Martha. We didn't give that seat over and over to Kennedy because he was liberal. He got the votes because he was a Kennedy, and you are no Kennedy.
~
Those lefty ads will sweep Brown comfortably into the seat.

Inflated Accomplishment
Martha Coakley keeps running these television advertisements about how, as the Massachusetts State Attormey General, she has saved taxpayers a Billion Dollars, tamed the banks and insurance companies.... yada, yada, yada.
~
Martha.... if you were that good, don't you think that you would have gotten the Nanepashemet Nod???
~
If you did all of the good that you say you did, it would be a tossup between canonization as a living Saint, or coronation as our new Queen. You would have been toasted and feted at every turn, instead of running scared as Scott Brown closes the gap in the polls.
~
So maybe there is a little Bullshit being slung here....
~
You should tell the people what you believe in, and what you would do as our United States Senator....not regale us with tales of your self indulgent superhero feats.
~
Don't embarrass yourself.

Half Marathon
Ryan put in 13 miles on the Fort Devens track in 1 hr. 49 min. today. I think his secret plan is to kick some Kenyan ass in the Boston Marathon a couple of years hence.
~
Or maybe he has another secret plan.

Let the Beatings Begin
Senator Harry Reid (D) , Majority Leader said that President Obama is "too light skinned, and only speaks with a Negro dialect when he wants".
~
Uh Oh. Free speech aside, he is about to get a "political correctness" old fashioned ass whupping.
~
It did seem like Obama would adjust his speech to fit the crowd during the campaign, but most Dems seem to pander that way. And Obama seems to have skin that would befit his caucasian mother and negro father. So his skin seems genetically correct.
~
Not sure what "too light skinned" would actually mean anyway. I hope I'm not "too light skinned".
~
So I guess the Senate Majority leader has entered the "political correctness shitstorm" with some questionable facts.

- I have an affinity for the precision of the moniker "douche bag". This chap is a douche bag. You know he got whacked upside the head playing kill ball, or dodge ball as it is referred to among the gentry.

Post Season Pats
Patriots lost to the Baltimore Ravens and are out of the playoffs.
~
It's not like I'm going to off myself or anything.
~
It's only Professional Football.
~
But it's still damn depressing.
~
At least we had a nice visit to FreshAyer this morning. Ryan was his usual upbeat, forward thinking, self. I guess life's not so bad if watching the Pats is more depressing than going to FreshAyer.

Lag Time
I've been spending a lot of time on the weight loss book lately. Since it's about me, it really holds my interest. Plus, there is nothing really screwed up going on.
~
Obama is saying a lot of nothing in his security speeches, and seems almost to be putting the health care fiasco on the back burner.
~
We're waiting to see if the Nanepashemet endorsement causes Scott Brown to win the Senate race.
~
The NFL playoffs are just getting underway.
~
Tiger's sex life seems to have blown over... so to speak.
~
So I might as well use this lag time to move the future New York Times bestseller along. I find the subject matter utterly fascinating.
Maria Rowen said...
Why stop there? You should probalby start thinking about the movie rights. Then of course, who will play the Mountain of a Man on the big screen...?
Excellent Point Maria. I'm thinking Clooney or Pitt.

Badass POTY
Because he is no longer local to the Boston area, quite a few of the Peeps have been bothering me with emails regarding details of the POTY, Jeremy Johnson.
~
Click on this Link and knock yourself out.
~
As you can see, Jeremy is no Pussy. He's a Badass Up and Coming Minnesota attorney.
~
Now you can bother Jeremy directly and leave me alone.

- Though not readily apparent, the essence of the Nuremberg defense is infused in this cop out. Let's start this off easy, low hanging fruit if you will. Has he ever provided a bottle of Lagavulin? If no, then should there not be an automatic yer not the peep of the year rule for such an ommission?

Maria Rowen said...
- Wow! This POTY also gets the PEEPle's Choice 2010, Maybe someday he will let us see his briefs!Now..let's all celebrate 'Jeremy' with a nice big slice of poor-loser-pie. __________________________________________________________________________________________
Amanda Johnson said.....Jay, I want names. Who the hell is questioning Big J Furious Esq's well-deserved honor and general roundhouse-in-your-eye-mutha-suckah-badassness? I swear to baby Jesus, I will crush skulls. ___________________________________________________________________________________________ Amanda - It was Piscatelli and Rowen. I had nothing to do with it! If you need their addresses, I'll look them up for you. Please leave my skull out of this. - J _________________________________________________________________________________________

- Ms. Johnson, with all due respect, I have the biggest, born-in-Lynn bada** in town (40 Badass Street, Swampscott, Massachusetts 01907-1903). Furthermore, I am 100% in support of 2010 POTY and I don't even know him. But, I respect the MoaM and the rules. And for the record, I am very attached to my head. __________________________________________________________________________________ Amanda - Since you live in LA and Maria lives in Swampscott.... and since both of you can probably kick my ass... I agree with Maria. Maybe I'll change my mind when you come back this way. -J
Nanepashemet Nod for Senate
It's time to announce the all-important Nanepashemet Blog Massachusetts Senate Race endorsement.
~
Since this will undoubtably decide the outcome of the race, I've had to deliberate long and hard. But with both Scott Brown and Martha Coakley pestering me daily and constantly, I have to put an end to the angst and speculation.
~
I've noticed that the Kennedy clan have thrown their support to Coakley, despite her grabbing at the nomination before Ted's corpse was cold. Even while holding their noses, the Kennedy's can't imagine that a Republican would occupy their family heirloom (ie Ted's Senate Seat).
~
In the end, our endorsement was fairly easy to make.... Scott drives a truck, might even be a Ford F150, and Martha dissed one of my favorite Peeps in the recent past by saying that she didn't need her help with her campaign. Plus Martha's lips look funny when she is talking like she has a mouth full of marbles.
~
So it's clear that Scott Brown gets the Nanepashemet Nod.
~
As our President has said repeatedly, "It's time for a change."
~
Don't worry Scott. This endorsement comes with no strings attached. Athrough if you could throw one of those no-bid fat government contracts to Nanepashemet Telecom, it would be kindly appreciated.
