Important Stuff -- Or Not: Update

OK, I promised an update, so I am typing through drowsy eyes. I managed to get a few hours sleep this morning. At one point, I turned on Laura Ingraham to see if she could lull me to sleep, but Ginger took, exception to it. She jumped onto the bed stand next to my radio and started yowling until I turned it off. Then she went back to sleep. I drove to Maryland to look at THE CAR and it turns out they moved it to another location for some sort of inventory. So that was another 30-minute drive. But, once I got there, I knew the deal was in the bag. I didn't even take a test drive. Got all the paperwork taken care of and took off. It has a heads up display on the windshield! So I don't even have to look down to check things like my gas and speed. The first time I pulled away from a stop light, I nearly broke my neck. I was constantly trying to hold it down to 55. It seems that all I have to do is think about something and it does it. One thing I don't like is the convertible top. On my old car, it was a one button process. So I could put the top up at a red light if it started to rain. But with this car, I have to get out, push a release button, pull the top half down, lift a panel that conceals it in the trunk, stuff it into the trunk and slam down the panel. The opposite goes for putting it up. It has no spare tire. I'm told I can drive on a flat if necessary. I'm keeping my AAA membership up to date, just in case. So, tomorrow, I get some stupid inspections done and register it in a few places. And then the hassle will be over. Right now, I'm just dead tired.

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.

4. It is a small mind that has no room for God.

5. You can take Stalin out of the gene pool, but you can't take Stalinism out of liberals.

6. The best way to sabotage a bad plan is to follow it to the letter.

7. The race card is the first refuge of people who have nothing to say.

8. Ignorance is the cornerstone of arrogance.

9. Which is more racist, to hate someone who is not white or to assume someone is racist because he is white?

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.

11. To express righteous indignation, one must first be righteous. And that's a label that doesn't stick to liberals.

12. Profanity is ignorance made audible.

13. An open mind is a liberal's worst enemy.

14. Paternalism is the purest form of racism.

15. People who bend the truth, usually bend it in their favor.

16. If you always stand in opposition to liberalism, you will never be wrong.

18. Life is simple. People who make it complicated usually have an agenda.

19. Getting your news from the corrupt, liberal media is like sticking your head in the sand, except you don't get grit in your teeth.

20. Liberals' emotional development stops at the age of 16.

21. To anger a conservative, lie to him. To anger a liberal, tell the truth.

23. Those who don't hate communism have never lived it.

24. This was a much more civil country when men walked about heavily armed.

25. This economy will never heal as long as Obama keeps picking at the scab.

26. Liberals don't think outside the box; they ARE the box.

27. You cannot change the hearts and minds of liberals, because they possess neither.

28. There is no such thing as a kind liberal.

29. Reading Democratic Party platforms is like reading the history of human rights abuses and crimes against humanity in this country.

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.

Congrats...; 8:50 PM
tugboatcapn said...: My hero!

Did you keep your other car?

If not, I would suggest that you look around and try to find an older, small pickup truck that you can get cheap.

You will need to move larger things than will fit into a Corvette more often than you think...

Congratulations! You're gonna love this car!; 10:02 PM
Lone Ranger said...: Film? What's that? I wouldn't take you for a ride, I'd let you drive it. That's the only way you can experience what this vehicle really is.

Nope, I traded my other car in. My parking slot costs $50 a month, so if I ever need to haul something big, it would be cheaper to hire someone -- not to mention Virginia's odious car tax.; 12:46 AM
Trader Rick said...: Post some pics asap! Don't tell us you are going to drive the vette in the WINTER!!!! What are you thinking??; 4:35 AM
Trader Rick said...: PS--I've got two older Pick-ups (Not much to look at) in the yard that run. If you want one, come and get it!! Tired of mowing around them...; 4:37 AM
Lone Ranger said...: I still have five days. If you're worried about winter, maybe I can trade it in on a Hummer. Besides, if Al Gore is right, winter is a thing of the past. My rule is if it is at least 40 degrees and not raining, I have the top down. It isn't like not being able to wear white shoes after labor day.; 6:45 AM
Anonymous said...: Congratulations! I'm kind of surprised you have to go through all that with the top, though. Seems a bit old-fashioned in today's automatic world.; 10:03 AM
Justin said...: Congrats, you deserve it!; 1:36 PM
Salar37_Shushan said...: Changing vehicles -even swapping privately - always seems to be a complicated process. We can especially relate this week as we are trying to swap a classic car for a camper. The swap ought to have been finished Monday! Everybody thought they had their titles ready immeditately, but each time it came time t turn up with each vehicle with titles, something snafu-ed. Hoping today will go better.

Your new car sounds cool :)

Definitely keep up your AAA. It has saved our backsides several times!

Ms.Green said...: I can see you'll never be the same again...

Awesome car. Congrats.; 8:53 PM
Lone Ranger said...: And where have YOU been, young lady?; 9:51 PM
Ms.Green said...: "And where have YOU been, young lady?"

Who? Me?; 8:12 PM
Lone Ranger said...: Never mind. I read your blog. Welcome back.; 1:55 AM
