Important Stuff -- Or Not: Shirker

Shirker

I'd like to say I haven't blogged for a few days because I'm preparing for my trip. But I was actually just too lazy to get on-line. The first thing I do today after I get home is to pack up the cats and take them to their hotel. That will leave the day free to pack. Since I'll be spending only one day there, I won't have to pack much. One problem is, I haven't gotten my new credit card yet. If it doesn't come in by Saturday, I'm going to have to use cash. I didn't get a credit card until I was 42, but now I can barely function without one. It's going to be a long, long drive without my XM radio. I'd thought about getting an ipod and ripping about 50 Lone Ranger episodes to it but -- no credit card. And I don't want to become one of those freakish people who always has either a cell phone or wires in his ears. I hope cash is still accepted in this country.

Cathy said...: Well, you won't have time today, but get an iPod... you'll never go back to XM.... we have XM and never use it... we keep it because we want to see want happens in a year when Sirius and XM combine their programming.

You can download so much to a video iPod... I have over 2200 songs-- from my personal cd collection--- I have purchased 2 songs on line, a dozen tv shows, and podcasts from Bill Bennett, Hugh Hewitt, and Dennis Prager on there... and I haven't used half the space available.

You can get adapters for your car so no wires in the ear...

Have a safe trip!!; 7:36 AM
Lone Ranger said...: I have XM for the old time radio shows and the conservative talk. Not much of a music listener.; 8:42 AM
Lone Ranger said...: As I was downloading updated software into my Garmin navigator, I remembered that it is also an MP3 player, so I downloaded 52 episodes of the Lone Ranger from a CD. That should keep me occupied.; 2:01 PM
Tonto said...: In the next life I want to come back as one of your cats...

Did you splurge and get them a hydrotherapy session?; 4:52 PM
Anonymous said...: I'm with Tonto--how do you get chosen as a Lone Ranger cat?

Have a good trip, and try not to look suspicious. While most places will still accept cash, Homeland Security might start a file on you. ;); 7:48 PM

Talking Points

I don't use talking points, I create them.

1. Hate makes people stoopid.

2. There is nothing so impenetrable as a closed mind.

3. A stupid person is not someone who can't learn, but someone who refuses to learn.

10. Children are not stupid. If a child is taught, the child will learn. If a child is not learning, the child is not being taught.

25 Immutable Truths About Liberals

Over the years I've been writing this blog, I've been throwing out little self-evident truths that seem to have no exceptions that prove the rule. I've made a list of some of them and will add to it as I remember them or make up more. Most of this list I've come up with myself. A few I've borrowed from others.

1. Always expect the worst from a liberal and you will never be surprised.

2. Never try to reason with a liberal. They disregard any evidence that conflicts with their beliefs.

3. You can always tell what liberals are up to by what they accuse conservatives of doing.

4. Liberals don't debate, they argue.

5. The only standards liberals have are double standards.

6. Liberals feel, conservatives think.

7. Whenever you don't understand a liberal's motives, just look for the money.

8. Liberals cannot be embarrassed. They lack the gene to blush.

9. The Liberal Golden Rule is, "Do unto others but scream bloody murder if they do unto you."

10. Liberals don't have leaders, they have demi-gods.

11. There are no honest liberals. If they were honest -- especially to themselves -- they would be conservatives.

12. A liberal's business is nobody's business, but everyone's business is a liberal's business.

13. Liberals have an inflated sense of self-worth. They are like house flies that criticize the air-worthiness of a Stealth fighter. (Sarah Palin, George W. Bush, ad infinitum are morons.)

14. Liberals lack a sixth sense that conservatives have in abundance -- common sense.

15. Liberals never stop hating.

16. There are only two types of liberals -- the deceivers and the deceived. The difficulty is telling them apart.

17. Every time liberals get on their high horse, they get bucked off.

18. Liberal programs are so wonderful that they have to be forced on people.

19. Liberals always choke on their own medicine.

20. When given a moral choice, liberals always come down on the wrong side of the fence.

21. The only way liberals can build themselves up is by tearing others down.

22. Liberals not only refuse to learn from their mistakes, they refuse to admit them.

23. Liberals have only two political positions -- blind devotion and blind hatred.

24. Liberals are incapable of attacking the message, so they always attack the messenger.

25. Liberal diversity is only skin deep.
