Pier Fishing

It was the first beautiful warm evening of the early summer, so I rigged up my casting rod and headed for the new pier down the lane in Gerry Playground.  Ryan had said that some guy down there claimed to have landed a keeper Striped Bass, so I thought I'd give it a try.
~
The new pier was blocked by a piece of plywood, so I had to give my overweight, overage body a little challenge in scaling the fence to get out to the end.  I did it... but it wasn't pretty .... either getting on or getting off.  When they get the floats in, it will be a lot easier.
~
Two fish jumped which was a good sign, but none were enticed by my offering as the sun went down past Salem Harbor.
~
I will be trying again.

Swinging Pendulum

The Washington Post doctors up a story about Romney in High School, manipulates witness accounts, and besmirches the reputation of the now deceased victim according to his family.... but Barach, his grade transcripts etc. etc. are untouched.  
~
I don't get it.   When I was a young man, I used to think that Liberals stood for truth and justice.  Maybe they did back then.  Maybe the pendulum has just swung.

Happiest Coastal Towns in the US

According to Coastal Living Magazine's new rankings based on sunny days, beach quality, low crime, commute time, education of residents and other factors the happiest Coastal Towns in the US are....

1.   Kiawah Island, S.C.

2. Naples, Fla.

3. Sausalito, Calif.

4. Lake Bluff, Ill.

5. Tiburon, Calif.

6. Laguna Beach, Calif.

7. Half Moon Bay, Calif.

8. Chatham, Mass.

9. Jupiter, Fla.

10. Lahaina, Hawaii

11. Marblehead, Mass.

12. Stinson Beach, Calif.

13. Cohasset, Mass.

14. Duxbury, Mass.

15. Solomons Island, Md.

These lists are always subjective crap shoots.  I know for a fact that there are numerous miserable bastards in Nanepashemet's home town of Marblehead.  And when we owned a condo in Naples, the Condo Commandoes never seemed too chipper either.  

On the other hand, when I did my work stint for a year out in California, I headed on the forty mile trek to Half Moon Bay as much as I could, and Sausalito, under the Golden Gate Bridge wasalso  stunning.

I guess when you get familiar with a place, you start to take it for granted,,,, so I have to agree, Marblehead is really the Balls.

Mitt the Bully

Now they're saying that Mitt Romney was involved in a bullying episode against a gay kid while he was in high school.
~
Romney says he doesn't recall, but that he did a lot of stupid stuff in high school and he's sorry if he offended anyone.
~
We'll see where this leads.  Wonder what nasty things will come out about BO growing up as a young Muslim lad in Indonesia?
~
I'd hate to be blamed for the stupid stuff I said and did in High School.
~
The Spindoctors have hit on a nice combo here though... bullying and gay bashing.  I don't agree with bashing gays, but I've seen a lot of times when Scumbag Girly men whine "Bully" because they are legitimately getting their clocks cleaned with some nice Payback.   It's OK for them to screw with people, but when it comes back their way, they are being "Bullied".  
~
Don't let the tears stain your Bib.

Total Recall

Every once in a while, I think that the Assholes are going to get away with it.
~
Then I remember the Law of Karma.
~
They are really screwed.
~
They can win a Skirmish, maybe even a Battle.  But they are doomed in the War.

"All warfare is based on deception. Hence, when able to attack, we must seem unable; when using our forces, we must seem inactive; when we are near, we must make the enemy believe we are far away; when far away, we must make him believe we are near. Hold out baits to entice the enemy. Feign disorder, and crush him."

Gay Marriage Time

President Obama came out in favor today of Gay Marriage.
~
When the ABC News political pundit,  George Stephanopoulos, was asked if there was a planned strategy behind this, he emphatically replied, "NO WAY!"  George is a lot smarter that the rest of us, and never shows his liberal bias, so there must be no strategy to this little proclamation.
~
Note to George:  When the POTUS comes out and declares his position on a highly charged and volatile issue like GAY MARRIAGE, it is definitely planned, rehearsed scripted, thought out, and strategized.  I was being sarcastic about the smarter comment.
~
We were born at night, George, but not last night.
~
I've already stated my position on Gay Marriage and am in favor because... WHO GIVES A SHIT!
~
If God didn't want Gay Marriage, he wouldn't have invented limp wrists and guys who talk with a lisp.
~
And don't give me the argument that marriage is only for a man and a woman.  It's for anyone who wants to give a life commitment to another person.  If you can't get it up for a woman, then you shouldn't allowed to be married?   That's stupid.
~
Plus, I love the gay couple on "Modern Family."
~
But back to the self-proclaimed 4th best President of the United States and Nobel Peace Prize Winner, Barach Hussein "I am not a Muslim" Obama.
~
So you are in favor of gay marriage????  Big freaking Deal.  I don't care if you're a Muslim.. don't care if you want Gays to get married.   I care that you bring this "nothing shit topic " up in order to get people all lathered up about it, while the economy stagnates with no policy and guys still get killed over some poppy fields and dry dirt in Afghanistan.
~
There's no strategy at work here, George.... NO WAY!

Mini Serve

I'll  be coming into some money soon, and I was thinking of buying one of those cool Mini-Poopers.
~
We'll be dropping by the dealer for test drive soon. Checking out the financing packages, talking to the management.
~
I heard it is a good place for service.

Anonymous Wild Bill Said...9:31 AM

Don't do it! The downside....The Mini is a POS. Poor reliability, won't last long with all the miles you will put on it. There is an upside...it is a cute girls car so when you pull up to the next zoning meeting and the libtards on the commmission see you drive one they will approve your request bacause they wont want to piss off the ghey guy driving the mini in fear of being brought to court on a sexual discrimination charge. Also they will give you a discount at the local bikini waxing place when you drive your mini there for your brozilian.

______________________

I hear you Bill.  But I'm primarily interested in the Mini for SERVICE.  There will be lots of SERVICE there at the dealership.  Especially for malicious destruction of property.


Anonymous Wild Bill Said....2:54 PM

Then you would be better off buying from a private seller, then going to an independent shop for service. At least you would be dealing with a businessman with a bit of self respect instead the losers that have to work at a stealership. We dont even afford car dealers or anyone that works at them membership at our country club.

_____________________


You may be right Oh Wild One.  Although undoubtedly, I would be blackballed at your country club as well.   The only thing resembling service will probably be civil suits and criminal warrants being served to stealership employees. But it's important that wages are paid so they can be garnished.

Cool Script for Matt Damon

You know Peeps... you never can show your vulnerable side.  Just as I lighten up on the evil liberal Damon, and confess that I like his acting and movies..... I get blindsided with this....

~
If you click on this link, you'll see that Damon is coming to the aid of the Poser Pocahontas, Elizabeth Warren.
~
How's this for a script, Matt?? .....

A tough savant from Southie, gets a job as a janitor at Harvard.... then tells everyone he's an Indian and qualifies for a job as a law professor.  He runs for US Senator and gets crushed like a bug by a "Brown" man.   The downtrodden "Brown" man gives Matt a broken down pickup truck and Pow Wow Damon heads west to a casino on the reservation... never to be seen again.
~
.......Fade to Black.

You have to admit, Matt ... this has Oscar written all over it.
You like Apples?   How do you like them Apples?

I should have never let my guard down.

Legal Inexperience

The other day, some AssWipe claimed to be damaged by this ridiculous Blog.  Naturally the DipShit says she will sue me for libel, slander and being a Big Meanie.
~
The great majority of People who threaten to sue have never been to court and never paid a legal bill in their life.
~
If they had, they wouldn't be so glib with their silly threats and exhortations.
~
As some of you know, I have paid a ton of money to  lawyers in my adult life, and seen the inside of a courtroom way too often.
~
So if you want to sue me...... Put up or Shut up.  And, if you don't like what this Blog says... don't read it.... it's not about you, Ms. AssWipe DipShit.  But just in case your enormous ego won't let you absorb that.... pay an Attorney to tell you.  My guess is that will be the first legal bill you ever saw.

Money Talks, Bullshit Walks.

My Confession

Peeps....
I have a confession to make.
~
And I'm not a little bit ashamed to make it.
~
This is wicked humiliating.
~
But being a Mountain of a Man means that you have to face your foibles head on.
~
This is it.
~
I like Matt Damon.
~
I think he is a great actor and I love his movies.
~
Yes... I know he is an asshole in real life and his liberal, "Matt Knows What's  Best for You" Dumbercrat politics is incredibly insulting and obnoxious.
~
But I like him anyway.
~
Yes.... I have flaws.
~
This is one of them.
~
I'm so very sorry.

The Old Bull and the Young Bull

Years ago, Ed Calnan, one of my mentors, told me the story of the Old Bull and the Young Bull.

~

The Old Bull and the Young Bull were walking in the pasture and looked up at a herd of cows at the top of a hill.

The Young Bull said, "Look at those Cows!  Let's RUN up and Fuck one of them.!"

The Old Bull paused, turned and responded... "That sounds good, but, Let's WALK up and Fuck ALL of them."

~

Over the years, I've often started out like the Young Bull, but then caught myself.

~

Calnan also was the first to admonish me with, "Don't get Mad... Get Even..." when I was a young upstart.

~ 

Now you probably think that this Old Bull is looking to Get Even, and you would be right.   Those old Lynn lessons are about to pay off.... once again.

Nanepashemet Nod for President

President Obama has begun his campaign for re-election that will culminate next November.
~
Rather than screw around with you hapless and totally disoriented Peeps, I think I will take an unprecedented action and cut through any drama and delay by giving the coveted Nanepashemet endorsement to his opponent, Republican Mitt Romney.
~
Normally, the Nanepashemet Nod ends all speculation and secures the outcome in favor of the endorsed candidate, but in this case, I must reluctantly say.... Not so much.
~
I say this because I haven't forgotten the training that earned me a Bachelor of Arts Cum Laude in Political Science from that esteemed institution of higher learning... the University of Massachusetts at Amherst.    At that school, despite intensive partying and other hijinx, I was introduced to the hypothesis of the Harvard Professor, V.O. Key  (March 13, 1908 - October 4, 1963) who wrote one of my textbooks and explained that Presidential Elections have historically been determined by a few simple factors.

• An Incumbent has the advantage.
• People make their voting decision based upon how they personally feel about their own economic security... not what the candidate says or stands for.
• If the Incumbent is running and the economy is on the upswing, the Incumbent will win.

So Peeps... even though I prefer Romney because of his intelligence and business acumen, I predict four more years of hope and change from the Obamanistas.  Yes... BO will win.
~
Why????   Do the math yourself !!
~
The War on Terror has run its course, and the cyclical nature of the economy has curative powers and will improve things as we come closer to November.
~
Since Obama is the incumbent, he will benefit from the good feeling that these trends will bring to the American Electorate.
~
Hence, BO continues his teleprompter based, remarkable hold on the Presidency despite his hazy history and complete lack of applicable experience.  I don't like it either, but it is what it is.
~
Course... the late Professor Key never knew about the power of the Nanepashemet Nod.
~
But I doubt he would have changed his hypothesis even if he was a Nanepashemet Peep.... which he obviously would have been.

1. B-Pops  saidMay 6, 2012 04:19 PM

   You, sir, are correct. BO will win in November, as we all lose. Can we even imagine what he might do this term with no thoughts of re-election?
