My Newest Post Is Over At My New Wordpress Site

I have a shit ton of work to do to it but I have already imported all the old posts and their respective comments from here to there.

The biggest challenge is going to be the Blogrolls. Holy Mother of God.

I tried using the import tool and got an error message back, "XML Error: Comment must not contain '--' (double-hyphen) at line 602",
whatever the fuck that means and wherever the fuck line 602 would be escapes me.
In case you haven't noticed, a Computer Geek, I am not. If I have to manually import both blogrolls then it is going to be a long time before it gets completely done.

The one thing I am going to miss about Blogger is the automatically updating blogroll, that is an extremely cool function that I am pretty sure Wordpress does not have anything to replace with.

So if you are reading this and have a blog with me on your blogroll then I am asking nicely if you could update it for me please.
The new site's address is right here,

The Vulgar Curmudgeon

Please be patient with me, it is going to take me quite a while to get the place dialed in the way I want it to look but I will get there eventually.
I have used Wordpress in the past but never really got the hang of it and now I have to relearn what little I did know.

Either way, I will be phasing out here and in the not too distant future this will be yet another archived site for me with a link to my newest adventure in blogging.

No matter what though, the writing is on the wall where Google is concerned.

Adios motherfuckers.

Current View, Laptop Screen And The Tips Of My Toes

Our little mini vacation is over but I took this one extra day off so I could just lay around and contemplate my navel.
The shit show I deal with every day at work will be there when I get back.
I know I needed some time off but I didn't realize how badly until yesterday when I went and had an hour long massage from the top of my head to my toes.

Holy crap, the guy found parts that were hurting that I didn't even know were hurting.
When I finally sat up I could feel the weight pile on each vertebra one at a time and all of them were sore.
My legs were really bad too.

After we had dinner last night I went back to the room and basically fell asleep before I knew what was going on.
Twelve hours later and it was time to get up, check out and get some breakfast.

So today is my one true fuck everything day and I am going to enjoy it.
Regularly scheduled insanity will resume tomorrow.
Thanks for stopping by.

98% From Portland ( Updated)

. Strange light effect on cheap cell phone at 98% of totality.

Updated, Actually, the wife informs me that we experienced a 99.2% eclipse so that glare on the lens is less than 1% of the suns full energy. I could see those red spots on the screen of my phone when I took the picture but thought it wouldn't show up when it was done.
I have no idea why it did that but it's a pretty cool picture anyway.
Notice the street lamp is on at the bottom of the picture at ten something in the morning on a normally bright, sunny day.

Even though we came close to a full eclipse and all we could see at maximum coverage was a tiny splinter of light right at the top, it was too much of an angle with too much visible light to see the corona.
It was still pretty awesome to watch and we had an excellent vantage point twenty minutes from home with zero traffic worries.
When it was over we just strolled down the grounds here at Edgefield and found some chairs to flop in underneath a covered area.

Now I'm going to take a nap, a couple of the women folk were up half the damn night keeping me awake and I got up at 7:30 this morning so we could get breakfast in the restaurant out of the way before the eclipse hit.

The Wifely Unit Has No Sense Of Adventure

Tomorrow is our wedding anniversary.
The same day as this big eclipse thing.
Thankfully we just head across the river to Edgefield in Troutdale every year so we shouldn't have to deal with the traffic.
Actually, she is already there and has been since Friday hanging out with one of her sisters who's birthday is today.

We were there last year too but I had to work so when I went to go over there, I took the little Sprite on it's maiden voyage out of town.
Here it is sitting in front of the joint.The first time in 20 some odd years the thing actually got me somewhere and back without breaking down.

That was all well and good until it was time to come home.
She had the kid drop her off and didn't have her car.
There is no passenger side seat in the Sprite.

So she had to call the kid to come get her. There was a certain amount of grief received over this.

Fast forward to this year, she has been over there since Friday again and it was the same deal, she had the kid drop her off.
There still isn't a passenger side seat in the Sprite either.

So she sends me a text message telling me not to bring the Sprite because she don't have a car.
The conversation via text went like this,

Ding, I get a message.

Her, Don't drive the Sprite down here, I don't have a car.

A couple minutes of fucking around on the internet and I sent her this,

Her, ?

Me. It's a milk crate.

Her, Why?

Me, For you to sit on in the Sprite.

Her, No.

Me, It's clean.

Her, No.

Me, OK, I'll put a cushion on it, Geez.

Her, No.

Me,

OK, Ok, damn you are hard to please woman but I am all over it.

Her, Whatever. ( She is plenty annoyed now)

Me, I'll even bolt it down just for you.
Should I put the top up?

Her, Dead silence.

Me, Alright, I'll be there later today with your little hoopty.

Her, K, I don't really know what you're talking about but whatever.

Me, Your car.
Lighten up, I'm just fucking with you.Smooch.

Her, Kinda figured anyway, bite me.


So she does have a bit of a sense of humor but no sense of adventure.

One of these days I'll tell you guys about the "Electric Van" I had back in the day and the time me and the old man got drunker than piss boiled owls at a family Christmas party and I had to take him home in the fucker.
It had a milk crate for a seat on the passenger side.
It's hilarious.

So posting might be a bit light, we shall see.

Oh, and BTW, I am getting the floor pans cleaned up and painted in the little POS so I can glue down some carpet.
The seats are going to be expensive no matter which way I go.
Over $2,000 plus freight to buy new ones and probably close to that to have mine redone.
$500 just for the seat skins but at over 50 years old, the frames are rusted and all the guts inside are shot.
I am going to throw that duct taped motherfucker in on the drivers side because that one is so far gone I am basically sitting in a bowl.

Smokin' Hot Aussie RedNecks?!

The cognitive dissonance level is way up there watching these two smokin' little hotties fuck with each other like pubescent redneck boys all over the United States do every day.



Gotta admit they have quite the sense of humor though.

Warm Up The Bulldozers!

This great idea received vial Email from a sweet little old lady.
I say go for it.

Derp Der Der!!

Oh you sexy baby, Lol!

Seattle Mayor Agrees That Statue Of Lenin Must Go Too

Take that ya fuckin' Commie assholes.

Seattle mayor hands Trump supporters big win

Right wing activists compare Seattle Vladimir Lenin statute to Confederate monuments

Seattle Mayor Ed Murray and a handful of President Donald Trump's most ardent supporters agree: It's time for Fremont's statue of Vladimir Lenin to come down.
During an interview with KIRO Radio 97.3 on Wednesday, Murray advocated for the statue's removal in response to a question, saying:
"In the last few days, Seattleites have expressed concerns and frustration over symbols of hate, racism and violence that exist in our city. Not only do these kinds of symbols represent historic injustices, their existence causes pain among those who themselves or whose family members have been impacted by these atrocities. We should remove all these symbols, no matter what political affiliation may have been assigned to them in the decades since they were erected. This includes both confederate memorials and statues idolizing the founder of the authoritarian Soviet regime. Both are on private property, but I believe the confederate memorial at Lake View Cemetery and the Lenin statue in Fremont should be removed. We should never forget our history, but we also should not idolize figures who have committed violent atrocities and sought to divide us based on who we are or where we came from."
Murray's statement came a day after a small group led outspoken Trump supporter Jack Posobiec demonstrated in front of the statue, equating it with Confederate memorials being removed on the East Coast in the wake of last weekend's deadly violence in Virginia.

Bye bye Vladdy old boy, ya Commie asshole.

Gas It!!

Just once, that's all I ask.

New York Times Calls For Outright Ban On Open Carry

Because guns are fucking scary man.
This latest bit of panty wetting was caused by someone noticing several people exercising their absolute right to protect themselves during last weeks little tête-à-tête in Charlottesville.

That someone would be a Mr.John Feinblatt, who it says in the fine print at the very bottom of this Op-Ed by the way, is the President of Everytown For Gun Safety.

I'm not linking to the fucking assholes.


This absolute horror and uncivilised practice is, according to this Op-Ed, a " legal loophole" that is prohibited in several states specifically already when done while protesting, especially political protesting, as it is a form of terrorism.

When militia members and white supremacists descended on Charlottesville, Va., last Saturday with Nazi flags and racist placards, many of them also carried firearms openly, including semiautomatic weapons. They came to intimidate and terrify protesters and the police. If you read reports of the physical attacks they abetted, apparently their plan worked.

They might try to rationalize their conduct as protected by the First and Second Amendments, but let’s not be fooled. Those who came to Charlottesville openly carrying firearms were neither conveying a nonviolent political message, nor engaged in self-defense nor protecting hearth and home.

Plain and simple, public terror is not protected under the Constitution. That has been the case throughout history. And now is the time to look to that history and prohibit open carry, before the next Charlottesville.

Historically, lawmakers have deemed open carry a threat to public safety. Under English common law, a group of armed protesters constituted a riot, and some American colonies prohibited public carry specifically because it caused public terror. During Reconstruction, the military governments overseeing much of the South responded to racially motivated terror (including the murder of dozens of freedmen and Republicans at the 1866 Louisiana Constitutional Convention) by prohibiting public carry either generally or at political gatherings and polling places. Later, in 1886, a Supreme Court decision, Presser v. Illinois, upheld a law forbidding groups of men to “parade with arms in cities and towns unless authorized.” For states, such a law was “necessary to the public peace, safety and good order.”

Someone grab a mop, there is piss all over the floor now.

Let me point something out here to this cowering socialite scold,

When the violence broke out there due to the coordinated actions of the police and the thugs of ANTIFA,

NO ONE GOT SHOT.

Whoa Nelly!

What the fuck ya know Poindexter?

Someone actually had some restraint.

I could go on here and rip this stupid fucking cunt a new asshole four or five more times but I am going to let that fact sit right there and speak for its self.

Oh who am I kidding, Fuck You Feinblatt.


Open Carry is very much the law of the land in many states and it should be in all of them.
Limp wristed little pansies like you can even do it.
Better yet, Concealed Carry should be the law of the land, period.

That way those punk ass bitches with ANTIFA would have to think twice about attacking people in the first place.
When everyone can carry for self defense, who is going to say who is and who isn't?
If you decide it's a great idea to go smack someone you oppose politically with a baseball bat then it's going to be like playing the lottery, with your life.

But anti gun little pricks like you don't have to worry about ANTIFA now do ya?
They is your peeps, right? (Cough cough, COMMIE RAT BASTARDS, cough)

Remember this the next time your panties start chafing your tender little bits because you are afraid of guns you asshole,

Now go home and make your wife a fucking sandwich ya fucking pussy.

A Definitive Zero Fucks Given Moment

Holy Crap. Elvis Has Been Dead For Forty Years Already?!!

Where in the hell does the time go?

Civil War 2.0 Is Upon Us

Unless you have been living in a cave the last few months it is hard not to see what passes for news around these parts,
That news has been saturated lately with reports of violent protests and counter protests with the unfortunate loss of life of one female ANTIFA member in Charlottesville Virginia being the first of what is now obviously going to be the death of many Americans in the upcoming festivities.

It is now out of control and the fight has been joined on both sides.


Government and law enforcement agencies have now been proven without a doubt to be backing these sometimes openly Communist motherfuckers and the bell continues to toll calling for more hostilities.

The Left in this country have crossed the line of no return at this point and every day you see more insanity run amok.

What is inevitably going to happen is that they are going to start what they can't finish and there is going to be retribution meted out in large doses.

Since one of their identifying traits is a complete lack of knowledge about history they don't have the ability to look to that history and see that Newtons third law of motion is a constant.

For every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction.

The pendulum always swings two ways.


Apparently they were also denied this little bit of wisdom as they were being spoon fed their Socialist Pablum,

"Old age and treachery wins over youth and vigor every time".


This ANTIFA bunch is going to fuck around and start pissing off large amounts of regular people and that is when they are going to lose.

Blocking major freeways and causing traffic back ups so they can show off is one guaranteed way to do that.

Visiting physical violence on peaceful protesters with a permit with the tacit approval if not active backing of a state government and it's law enforcement is another way.

Just to be clear here, I in no way condone anyone affiliated with Nazism or the White Supremacy movement.
Being white does not automatically make one supreme at anything and Nazism is just as bad as Communism in my book.


Trying to erase history is a pathetic attempt to deny your own heritage no matter what your family history is.
If you are an American then all that has happened in this country whether good or bad is part of your heritage and trying to remove the physical reminders of that across the country only proves to me that the education system in this country is broken beyond repair.

Education has been replaced by indoctrination and functional illiteracy.

You are just smart enough to be dangerous to yourselves.


That this great civil disturbance is being fomented by a bunch of fucking Commies, their sympathisers and wannabe's is what is going to be
what brings huge numbers of Americans together to remind you little assholes that we have burned entire cities to the ground over that shit before.


Just keep in the back of your ignorant little minds that We the People have enough weaponry that it scares the living shit out of our own government when they stop looting the place long enough to think about it.

I suppose if I think about it a certain way that you might actually be starting something that winds up being good for this country in the long run.
We might just be able to clean house and get rid of a whole bunch of useless and parasitic cocksuckers of all shapes and sizes at one go.

So here it is you Commie Fucks,

You want blood?
You got it.

Take A Wild Fucking Guess

A Timeless Message

Good on ya girl.

The first two jobs I ever had were in food service.
I started out washing dishes.
That didn't last too long.
The second job, of all things, was me being a Short Order cook at a medium sized restaurant that specialized in breakfasts at the tender age of 19.

I worked my ass off.

There were two waitresses and I kept them both running.
Not only did we do breakfast, I did lunches and dinners too.
Made french fries one fucking potato at a time in a little press cutter hanging on the wall, made hash browns by the pound, broasted chicken, made oyster stew and all kinds of shit.

To this day I can remember just how much fun it was to brick that hot motherfucking grill every day.

That place is still open down in North Bend Oregon, it's right across the street from where the huge chip pile was at the now closed Weyerhaeuser lumber mill my Grandfather worked at for 25 years.They tore down most of the mill that was literally a mile long years ago and now there is an Indian Casino there.
I stopped in there for breakfast a while back when I had to go down there for my Grandmothers funeral.
They still make a killer breakfast.


Since I have experienced the amount of work, stress and asshole customers these people have to deal with every fucking day, I ALWAYS tip well.
My wife tries to argue about it every time we eat out and every time I ignore her and tip well anyway.

I would have to receive extremely bad service before I wouldn't leave a tip and to be honest, if it was that bad I would be saying something right to the servers face first.

So good on ya Ashley, even if this was from years ago, someone raised that girl right and her date was a fucking jerk.

I'll Be Out In The Garage If You Need Me

I know a couple of career Drama Queens who will make shit up if they can't find something to be butt hurt about.
I have seen them do it.

Fuck that drama bullshit, I have neither the time, energy nor patience for that shit anymore.

The fact is, a couple of people I have to deal with on a daily basis are little drama queens and I have gotten to the point that I either ignore them or wind their little asses up to warp fucking 9 and send them off on their little way.

I have also been known to just point and laugh at their theatrics. Sometimes that really sets them off.

Like I said, fuck that drama bullshit.

Grow the fuck up.

It's shocking!

Y'all Pay Attention Here Now, This Is Real Food

I get a kick out of this guy but I'm going to get real serious here for a minute.

This, is how you cook a pork chop.

It is also THE EXACT SAME WAY MY GRANNY MADE GRAVY.

She's been gone forty years now but let me tell you, this is one thing I paid attention to while she was still alive and I make my gravy the same way to this day.

This here is the real deal now.
Ya gotta use a cast iron pan for this or it just ain't right and ya gotta use bacon grease despite what he says in the video.
I still have some of Granny's cast iron skillets and they are older than I am.
If you learn to take care of 'em they will last several life times.
She always had a little tin can of bacon grease right on the back of the stove and used it every day.

Now y'all be quiet and let the man talk.



Now that there gravy is good on just about everything, I ain't kidding.
It's good on mashed potatoes, biscuits, fried taters, rice, meatloaf, and pork chops obviously but it really shines on some crispy hash browns on a Sunday mornin' breakfast with bacon and sausage next to a big ol' pile of scrambled eggs.


Yes, sir.

The only time I ever get to eat like this is when I cook it myself.
I married a damn Yankee girl from Minnesota and she don't know squat about Southern cooking.
Don't wanna learn neither.

'At's alright, I knows how.

Seattle Police Pepper Spray Violent Left Wing ANTIFA Protestors

Quite the different outcome than Charlotte yesterday.
To say I was surprised to hear about this turn of events in that Commie infested liberal shithole up North of here would be a major understatement.





Love the squealing ANTIFA bitch who seems to be having trouble digesting a sudden double helping of pepper spray.
Nice pipes honey.


There is already blood in the streets over this freedom of speech fight because that is not what it is being portrayed as.
It is being painted in vivid images of being about race.

There is going to be a lot more blood in the streets coming soon I am afraid.

These ANTIFA goons seem to be pretty well armed for this close combat skirmish scenario, no matter what city they show up in.

Funny that.

Get fifteen or twenty feet away and it's called being down range then, you idiots.

In case you really haven't been paying close attention, I have been saying that a Civil War has been being fought behind the scenes for a long time, several years now.

It is now out in the open, the first official KIA has been registered and now all bets are off.


The Deep State, former President Obama, the Main Stream Media and The Left Wing party have been pushing this racial divide for years now.

The thing is, this is all a fucking distraction, something to keep the Plebeian's busy while they continue raping the planet of the last nickel under the cushions.

You don't seriously think those people give a flying double twist of a fuck about any of this do you?

Because they don't.

Prepare to defend yourselves.


You absolutely will not see my narrow little ass at any of these festivities, these things are a set up and they are just waiting for the patsies and the cannon fodder to show up.

They already have the script, they are just waiting for the actors.

I Think Maybe They Are Fucking Serious Dude.

Doomsday Preppers Hit High Gear Over Fears Of WWIII

Right at the moment I'm not too worried about it, especially the radiation aspect of it.
We are getting bombarded with radiation from the fucking Fukushima plant over in Japan every day and you don't see the government saying anything about it. Although if we went big enough over there I'm sure the fallout clouds would travel completely around the planet and we would be getting a big dose of that.

If one or the other of us does start lobbing nukes TS is going to HTF and I would be more worried about Sheeple Panic Syndrome than anything else.

There are hundreds of millions of people in this country who do not even know what a manual fucking can opener is anymore.

Products Flying Off Shelves At Army Supply Store As Shoppers Prep For ‘World War III’

ROYAL OAK (WWJ) – As the rhetoric ramps up over North Korea and nuclear weapons, the cash registers have been ringing at a local Army Supply store, where some are apparently prepping for a third World War.
Ben Orr, the manager of Joe’s Army Navy in Royal Oak, says he’s been selling a lot of “prepper items” over the past week or so.
“We’ve been very busy. Unusually busy, I’d say,” Orr told WWJ’s Sandra McNeill. “It’s definitely an increase, just in selling all the normal prepper stuff, end of the world stuff. A lot of water prep stuff, food, MREs — the military meals.”
And there’s been a substantial increase in the sale of a particular item they don’t sell much of — a so-called radiation antidote called potassium iodide.Ben Orr shows off a package of potassium iodide. (Credit: Sandra McNeill/WWJ Newsradio 95)
“It actually stops your thyroid from absorbing any radiation. So, it fills your thyroid with iodine, which it normally does anyways,” said Orr. “Your body can’t tell the difference between bad, radioactive iodine and acceptable iodine, so it actually will stop you from getting thyroid cancer.”
The antidote is usually hard to find, but Orr’s store carries two brands.
“It’s supposed to work. It’s FDA approved. But they also recommend you don’t take it unless the government says to take it,” he said. “Unless people are scared of something, we don’t really ever sell it.”
Another popular request: gas masks. But most people looking for those will be out of luck.
“Gas masks are a big thing too, but we only sell them as novelty,” said Orr. “A lot of them are out of date and we don’t guarantee them to work.”
Orr said most people come in and make their purchases without giving any explanation, but a few people have mentioned North Korea.
“Some woman came in earlier and said she had to get it because of little Kim (Jong-un),” he said. “I don’t know if she was making a joke or just got it mixed up.”

As for me, it's Friday, I had to work late last night and then got called back in again after that and didn't get home until four this morning.
It's off to work yet again and I will be turning my phone off when I get home tonight so I can fall down and get some rest.
Maybe tomorrow I will have time to worry about World War 3.

Trump Speaks Kim Jong Un's Language, Threatens North Korea With "Fire And Fury Like The World Has Never Seen"

Looks like The Donald has finally had enough from the little Banty Rooster Kim.

Trump warns North Korea of 'fire and fury'

Noah Bierman

President Trump, facing a growing nuclear threat from North Korea, warned the country on Tuesday against any new provocations and issued his own threat of "fire and fury like the world has never seen."
"North Korea best not make any more threats to the United States,” Trump told reporters from the clubhouse of his golf course in Bedminster, N.J., where he was being briefed separately on the opioid epidemic. “They will be met with the fire and the fury like the world has never seen.”
Trump added that North Korean leader Kim Jong Un “has been very threatening beyond a normal state, and as I said, they will be met with the fire and fury and frankly power, the likes of which this world has never seen before.”
The comments came after a report in the Washington Post on Tuesday citing a U.S. intelligence assessment that North Korea has successfully produced a miniaturized nuclear warhead that can be affixed to missiles, greatly expanding the country’s range and power.
Trump’s rhetoric in some ways mirrors his North Korean counterpart’s with its muscularity, though it is also in line with Trump’s blunt style.

Nobody wants a nuclear war but I'm thinking this is a message long overdue.
Li'l Kim has to know in his own mind that this is a No Win for him.
The question here is, does Donald Trump have the balls to pull that trigger?
From what I have seen so far, I would have to say yes.

This ought to let those who have been trying to talk the little nut job off the edge that maybe they should step up their efforts.
If one of North Korea's missiles gets detected veering even one degree towards the United States then all bets will be off.

Liberal Hemorrhoids Inflamed Anew Over Bruce Willis' Remake Of Classic Film Death Wish

These annoying cocksuckers are like mosquitoes buzzing you in the face constantly.

The first thing that occurred to me when I read all the hand wringing and virtue signaling from these panty waisted bitches was that in all likelihood, none of them had even been born yet when the original movie was released clear back in 1974.

When I did read all the negative items they had checked off as if by rote, it was indeed, a whole bunch of virtue signalling.

OMG, GUNZ!


Triggered!!

OLD WHITE DUDE!


WITH GUNZ!!

OMG! OLD WHITE DUDE IN CHICAGO, SHOOTING BLACK PEOPLE!!

WITH GUNZ!!


OMG!

FASCISM!

AND GUNZ!!

OMG!

BADZ!!


Etcetera, etcetera, etcetera, we've seen it all before.
Too many fucking times.

The best one was from some little snowflake who likened it to porn for conservatives.

"Eli Roth's Death Wish remake is so nakedly fascist that alt-righters will have an erection before the trailer ends"

You need to get up off your knees long enough to go take a walk through Chicago's West Side at Midnight on a Friday night there Sunshine and do us all a favor by not coming back.
A little bleach in the gene pool once in a while isn't necessarily a bad thing.


It's called Entertainment you weak little man boys.

It's the same shit they have been peddling since, oh maybe, NINETEEN SEVENTY FOUR YOU FUCKING MORONS!

Jesus Christ on a cracker you people get butthurt over the stupidest shit at the drop of a hat anymore.

I'll tell you what here little man boys, I saw the original when it first came out, I have seen it several times since then and I didn't think it was that great of a movie.
I know, surprise eh?

But I am going to go see this movie whether or not you like it for several reasons.

Number one, I like Bruce Willis, OK?
The guy is a Mans Man and I like almost every movie that guy has ever been in.

Number two,


I would go beg for money on the street if I had to so I could get a ticket to go see this movie, just to put your little man boy panties in a twist, twice.


Even though I never really cared for the original that much, I'm sure it has been modernized with much better cinematography, special effects that are light years ahead of what they had back in '73 when it was originally filmed and far superior sound quality.
One of the reasons I didn't care for the original is that it was too damn dark in some scenes.

And number three?

Umm, yeah.
That should be self explanatory even to the queer boy members of your tribe.

One more item here, a bunch of the negativity in this little tempest in a tea pot is being directed at my man Bruce.

Before all you pussy motherfuckers jump up in unison chanting your bullshit mantra that he is a hedonistic, one dimensional character actor who has been pigeon holed into action packed shoot 'em up movies and otherwise has no redeeming qualities or talents, Ol' Uncle Phil is going to school your ignorant little asses.

I want you to shut the fuck up for a few minutes, sit the fuck down here and watch this,

Records fall as excessive heat warning continues

PORTLAND, Ore. – An Excessive Heat Warning issued by the National Weather Service continues Wednesday as temperatures are expected to get into the mid-100s in northwest Oregon and southwest Washington.
Portland hit 103 degrees Wednesday and broke the record for August 2, which had been 96 degrees. Nearby Hillsboro (104), Troutdale (105) and McMinnville (105) also broke records.
Salem broke a record with 107 degrees on Wednesday.

Thursday's forecast calls for 106 degrees in Portland, which would also be a record.
The heat warning went into effect at noon on Tuesday and is scheduled to last until 11 p.m. Friday in the Willamette Valley, Coast Range, Cascade Foothills, Cascades, Columbia River Gorge and Upper Hood River Valley.
7-day forecast at a glance
At the Oregon Coast, temperatures soared into the 90s on Wednesday.

Friday could also reach triple digits. The extreme heat will end by the weekend, but temperatures will only fall back to the 90s.
The all-time heat record for Portland is 107 degrees, reached in 1942, 1965 and 1981.

I wouldn't be the least but surprised to see it get that hot where I work, it is basically straight across the river from Troutdale and as you can see up above, a bit hotter too for some reason.

Libtards Up In Arms Again, DOJ Rightfully Calls ' Illegal Aliens, "Illegal Aliens"

Damn, having your ass get chapped every other day must get painful after a while.
No wonder these SJW's are always so grumpy.

Heh, idiots deserve every minute of it too.

In the latest Outrage Du Jour, they are seemingly consternated and constipated by the Department of Justice calling Illegal Aliens, Illegal Aliens.

Not Undocumented, not Unauthorized, Illegal.

Alien is a legal term used to describe people who are living here without citizenship.

Even the On line Dictionary and the Online Thesaurus have gone politically correct I see.

While they do give the definition of illegal alien, they go out of their way to make sure you know that calling people who enter this country in a manner against the laws here or over stay their visa an Alien is butthurt territory and you really shouldn't go there.

Illegal alien, illegal, undocumented, and unauthorized are labels used to describe people unlawfully residing in the United States, whether by clandestine border crossing, visa deadline violation, or other means. But the terms are not interchangeable. Each has a unique origin and connotation.
Alien is a term used in legal language for a noncitizen resident, regardless of whether that person resides in the country legally or illegally. The term in the United States is inherited from British law, and has been a legal designation for foreign-born residents since the Revolutionary era. While the term continues to be used by the Department of Homeland Security and the United States Immigration and Customs Enforcement as a technical term in legal documents, it is not preferred in general discourse. As alien is a word that is also associated with extraterrestrial life, it is perceived as dehumanizing when applied to immigrants.
Illegal alien is a designation for unlawful immigrants that was previously widely used, but is now associated with anti-immigration policies and advocates.
Though the adjectival usage of illegal (illegal immigrant, illegal resident) may have an anti-immigration connotation, it is still largely accepted. However, as a noun, illegal is highly offensive. This noun implies deviance or emphasizes the criminality of an individual whose only crime would have been illegal entry into the country or an overstayed visa.

I put that little blurb there at the end there in bold just to point out that by going as politically correct as they possibly could, they still couldn't get around the fact that it is in fact, illegal.
As for calling them illegal and it being highly offensive, someone needs to point out to these knuckle heads that IT'S SUPPOSED TO BE!

Why is that so hard to wrap your head around?


Fuck you people.
Your word salad games are just that and by getting all wound up over it all you are trying to do is cover up the fact that all of these people are in this country illegally and you want everyone to overlook that by labeling it something, "less offensive".

That offends me you jackasses.
Of course my opinion doesn't count because I am an aging white skinned male and a hate mongering radical motherfucker with some sort of imaginary privileges.

Right.

Fuck you people some more.
Really.

There is no end in sight for this stupidity so you will keep seeing these little skirmishes until the day you die but I thoroughly enjoy rubbing shit in the faces of these ignorant cocksuckers so every once in a while I like to lob one at 'em just to stir the pot.

Dumb bastards anyways.

NASCAR Putting Tornado Strength Spin On Declining Sponsors, Fans

Check the spin of this headline and the ugly truth buried at the bottom of this article.

NASCAR cuts weekend schedule to save money, ease travel

LONG POND, Pa. (AP) — Kyle Busch usually wakes up around 8 a.m. or so on race day and just waits until he's needed for a meet-and-greet before he slips into the No. 18 Toyota.
But if he's up, he may as well as qualify before lunch. And if he wins the pole, well, he may as well go win the race.
Busch was the biggest benefactor in NASCAR's decision to try a reduced weekend Cup schedule at Pocono Raceway. NASCAR ditched the traditional practice and qualifying sessions on Friday and drivers made their run at the pole just a few hours before the start of Sunday's race. Busch won the pole and won a race for the first time this season.
"I wouldn't mind more days like that," Busch said. "With my Xfinity and Truck efforts getting cut back more and more each year, that's going to be more Fridays at home with my son. That's going to be more fun for us drivers."

NASCAR will try the two-day show again this week at Watkins Glen and Oct. 29 at Martinsville.
Pocono threw an infield fan festival on Friday night and a solid crowd turned out to watch Dale Earnhardt Jr ., Ryan Blaney, Kyle Larson, Kurt Busch, Martin Truex Jr., Daniel Suarez and Michael McDowell have fun participating in lip sync battles, cooking showdowns and the like.
Watkins Glen is holding its own fan fest and a country music concert Friday night.
The real benefit to the skinny schedule is that teams can save money and spend more time at home. The cash and days off add up over the course of one of the more grueling schedules in sports. Plus, it's hardly worth it for tracks to open the gates anymore on Fridays to draw a crowd not much larger than a minor league baseball game.

My emphasis.

Here is the real reason.

SPONSOR WOES
Kyle Larson, the top young driver in the sport, lost Target last week as his sponsor in 2018. Kenseth, Danica Patrick, Kurt Busch and Kasey Kahne are among the drivers with uncertain futures because of various sponsor issues. With TV ratings and attendance flatlining, teams are struggling to put together multiyear deals with a committed corporate backer that will fund the program
"I think the traditional model is going to go extinct soon, and it could be argued that it's here right now," 2012 champion Brad Keselowski said. "The traditional model (of just) being a consumer brand sponsor that just wants to see a car out there with their name out it will go extinct in the next couple years. That's not always a bad thing. There's other models that work and have proven to be successful."

Let me clue you corporate whores at NASCAR in to a little secret.

People want to see real racing.

I know, who'da thunk it, right?

We don't like having the rules twisted so that all we ever see are 200 mph parades.

Go back to run what ya brung, let the talent speak for itself and back the fuck away from the feminization of a traditionally male dominated sport targeting a predominantly male audience.

It's that fucking simple you morons.

Yesterday Was A Bit Warm

Today is supposed to be when the real heat wave starts and by Thursday?

Oh boy, I just can't wait.

Scaramucci Out, Already!

I just laughed out loud when I saw this breaking news headline pop into my Email.

Anthony Scaramucci out as White House communications director

MONDAY, JULY 31, 2017, 11:51 AM PDT

Anthony Scaramucci has been removed from his position as White House communications director, according to a person close to the White House. Scaramucci’s abrupt removal by President Trump comes 10 days after the New York financial executive joined the White House staff.

Ten days.
Is that some kind of new record?
Wait, even better, he hadn't even officially accepted the job?!

Anthony Scaramucci, who was announced little more than a week ago as President Trump's communications director, was ousted Monday before he had even officially taken the job.

John Kelly, the newly sworn-in White House chief of staff, told Scaramucci around 9:30 Monday morning that he was going to be replaced, according to a person close to White House.

In a statement officially announcing the move, the White House said Scaramucci "felt it was best to give Chief of Staff John Kelly a clean slate and the ability to build his own team."

Scaramucci, a former hedge fund executive who enjoyed the limelight, had come on strong in his brief tenure, highlighted by a profane tirade against colleagues delivered last week to a New Yorker reporter.

The dude was obviously not a good fit for the job from the outset.

After strutting around like a goose and shitting all over everything, he shit in his own nest and then his wife filed for divorce on top of everything else.

I see General Kelly is all over his new job though.

It's Going To Be Hotter Than Fuck Later This Week, 106-110 Degrees Predicted In Portland On Thursday

Depending on which forecast you look at, it's supposed to be hotter than Phoenix Fucking Arizona on Thursday.

One computer model predicted 113 for crying out loud! Thankfully the likelihood of that is slim.

That kind of heat kills people around here, we just don't see that kind of shit.

The latest predictions as of right now are shooting for 106 on Thursday but three or four days of over 100 is not good.

It's quite possible that multiple high temperature records could be broken.

It's going to be a miserable sonofabitch at work either way.

PORTLAND, Ore. – The National Weather Service has issued an Excessive Heat Warning for much of this week as temperatures are expected to get into the 100s in northwest Oregon and southwest Washington.

The warning goes into effect at noon on Tuesday and is scheduled to last until 11 p.m. Friday in the Willamette Valley, Coast Range, Cascade Foothills, Cascades, Columbia River Gorge and Upper Hood River Valley.

7-day forecast at a glance

KGW meteorologist Chris McGinness forecasts a high of 99 degrees on Tuesday, which would tie a record for Aug. 1. McGinness said Portland could get up to 105 degrees on Wednesday, which would be an Aug. 2 record, and 106 degrees on Thursday, which would also be a record.

"For some perspective, the 2009 heat wave brought temps at Portland International Airport over 100 on three consecutive days, including back-to-back 106-degree readings on July 28 and 29," he said. "This week looks similar, and a fourth 100-degree day is not out of the question on Friday."

The all-time heat record for Portland is 107 degrees, reached in 1942, 1965 and 1981.

"Right now it looks like even the coast will get quite hot. Winds will either die down or shift, allowing for at least one day -- Wednesday -- around 90," McGinness said Monday morning. "By Friday, onshore flow should cool the coast back to normal temperatures, but right now it doesn't look like that cooler air makes it inland until Saturday or Sunday."

When this heat bubble heads East then it is going to look like Eastern Oregon and Washington will be under a magnifying glass.

Just A Quick Message On This 'Cultural Appropriation " Bullshit I Am Seeing Lately

Listen up you permanently butthurt morons, you are really reaching with this crap.
"Cultural Appropriation"?

Really?

Take a look in the mirror you stupid motherfuckers and ask yourself where your clothes came from.
That hairdo you have?
How about the car you drive?
What about the music you like?
Do you like to eat?
Have you come up with your very own and exclusive recipes that no one else has ever heard of?

I thought not.

Just once I would really love for one of you pig ignorant cocksuckers to get in my face with your nonsense so I could absolutely destroy you in under one minute.

Go back to your safe space and try a little harder for something to get wound up about.
If you can't come up with something on your own then feel free to swing by and I will give you enough shit to be butthurt about to last you for several generations to come.


Stupid fucking assholes.

Take a big suck outta my ass and then go fuck yourselves silly.

Please Don't Judas Me

When is the last time you heard this bad ass tune by Nazareth?

Jesus, smokin' dope and rockin' out to this shit way back in the 70's.
Good times and a great tune.

They don't make music like this anymore.


Crank it up and break the knob off.

Starting With Your Name

I ain't kidding either.
For one thing I am damn near deaf in one ear and I can't hear for shit out of the other one either anymore.

It drives people crazy sometimes but it really drives me nuts because I have to ask people to repeat themselves constantly. It's really bad if there is a bunch of back ground noise, like at work.
Half the time I am half assed reading peoples lips when they are talking to me and if you aren't facing me when you are talking then I can damn near guarantee that I am not going to understand a fucking thing you say.
It does come in handy occasionally though when someone is running off at the mouth and not really saying anything.
I just tune their asses out completely and I will do it while looking them right in the face too.

When I say it starts with your name I'm not kidding for two reasons actually.
The first one is that I am committing your face to memory when I first meet you and don't even bother to listen to what your name is right away for another.

Names change easily, faces not so much.
I have recognized people from thirty years ago before, out of a crowd.
I can always ask you what your name is.

Here's a dirty little trick I read about years ago that you can use in a pinch if you can't remember someones name.

Ask them what their name is, really.
When they answer and sound put out shake your head and tell them you meant their last name. They will then feel better thinking that you hadn't forgotten their first name and will rattle their last name right off.

You will then have their first and last names.


Works like a charm.

Trump Announces Transgender Ban In U.S. Military On Twitter.

And like clockwork there is an instant shit storm.

Ya gotta love it.

Even Mad Dog Mattis didn't even know about it because he is on vacation, McCain stopped barking at cars long enough to say that it needs to be "studied" first.
Typical fucking politician move there.

Of course the Alphabet Activists vowed to fight it in the courts immediately.
I can't keep track of all the letters these people have added to the acronym they use for identifying sexual deviants anymore but it is approaching ten I think.

Another aspect of this is that it is a direct poke in the eye to Obama who implemented this crap to begin with.
Thankfully he is out gallavanting around the globe somewhere and wasn't available for comment, yet.

Anyways, back to the story.......

President Trump messaged Wednesday that he has decided to bar transgender individuals from serving “in any capacity” in the U.S. armed forces, a policy that could affect thousands of Americans now in uniform and others hoping to serve.

In a decision he disclosed on Twitter, Trump said the military would not “allow or accept” transgender service members, reversing a policy begun by the Obama administration last year.

It wasn't immediately clear what would happen to transgender service members now serving in the Army, Navy, Air Force and Marines. Estimates vary from about 6,000 to 16,000 members of the armed services are transgender.

A Pentagon spokesman described the decision as "new guidance" rather than an order from the commander-in-chief, and said the Pentagon would issue its own "revised guidance" to the military in the near future.

LGBT groups vowed to challenge Trump in court, and Sen. John McCain (R-Ariz), chairman of the Senate Armed Services Committee, all but urged the Pentagon to ignore the tweet until a detailed study is completed.

In a series of tweets, the president said he had consulted with "my Generals and military experts” in deciding to reverse the current policy.

“Our military must be focused on decisive and overwhelming victory and cannot be burdened with the tremendous medical costs and disruption that transgender in the military would entail," he wrote.

A study commissioned by the Pentagon last year found the expected medical costs to be negligible.
It wasn't immediately clear when Trump's decision might be implemented by the Pentagon.

Secretary of Defense James Mattis is out of Washington on vacation this week and the Pentagon appeared caught off guard by the president's tweet. Military officials referred all questions to the White House.

"We will continue to work closely with the White House to address the new guidance provided by the Commander-in-Chief on transgender individuals serving the military," Pentagon spokesman Capt. Jeff Davis said in a statement. "We will provide revised guidance to the Department in the near future."

Some members of Congress, including several Republicans, questioned Trump's decision or called for him to reconsider.

Sen. John McCain, (R-Ariz), chairman of the Senate Armed Services Committee, all but urged the Pentagon to disregard Trump's message, which he said was unclear.

"Any American who meets current medical and readiness standards should be allowed to continue serving," McCain said in a statement. "There is no reason to force service members who are able to fight, train, and deploy to leave the military - regardless of their gender identity."

He said the Defense department is conducting a study on the medical obligations, impact on military readiness and other questions regarding transgender individuals who want to join the military.

"I do not believe that ay new policy decision is appropriate until that study is complete and thoroughly reviewed by the Secretary of Defense, our military leadership and the Congress," McCain added.

The LGBT community vowed to go to federal court to challenge Trump's decision on transgender people in uniform. .

"We are going to fight for them as hard as they are fighting for the country," the OutServe-Servicemembers Legal Defense Network, a Washington-based group that seeks LGBT equality in the military, said in a statement.

The legal group estimates about 16,000 transgender individuals currently serve in the military.
