She says it was styled with no moose.
wyatt the rocker

This leads me to believe two things:
1. Beth played with dolls waay too much as a girl.
2. Beth has waay too much time home alone with the kids and is waaaay bored.

We love her anyway

Workout Challenge!!! http://cookiecrumbexpress.com/blog1/2010/03/03/workout-challenge/ http://cookiecrumbexpress.com/blog1/2010/03/03/workout-challenge/#comments Wed, 03 Mar 2010 02:18:56 +0000 Administrator http://cookiecrumbexpress.com/blog1/?p=543 It’s all Gr@ym@n’s fault! We are now offered the opportunity to jump in. This challenge will terminate in about a year when Gr@ym@n comes home from his favorite vacation site.

More details as available. Remember this contest will be like the last one … there will be several events. Everybody needs to pick some that suits them. It is open to girls and guys.

The idea is not to beat everyone in the competition. The idea is to beat yourself by the biggest margin.

For example I weigh 175 lbs … one goal I might pick is to lose 10 pounds. If I lose 5 I get .5 points. If I gain I lose points accordingly.

If I pick a three mile jog …. I take my time at the beginning … then at the end I find out how much better or worse that I did.

If I choose sit ups … same rule

I think Ner is gonna pick iron skillet jungling .. same rules .. measure at the start and the end.

Gr@ym@n might have the toughest time because he will be somewhere where they have events hard to duplicate here … like nuking a village .. or minigun field stripping contest.

We shall see.

More details as this thing unfolds. Many of you may remember out last challenge. It was fun and we all improved. I understand the entry fee (payable at the conclusion) will go into a pot and the most improved wins.

Why I carry a gun http://cookiecrumbexpress.com/blog1/2010/02/18/why-i-carry-a-gun/ http://cookiecrumbexpress.com/blog1/2010/02/18/why-i-carry-a-gun/#comments Thu, 18 Feb 2010 03:45:25 +0000 Administrator http://cookiecrumbexpress.com/blog1/2010/02/18/why-i-carry-a-gun/ This has to be the most clear and logical explanation ever posted on why a law abiding citizen would want to be armed today!!!

“Why I Carry a Gun”

My old grandpa once said to me, “Son, there comes a time in every man’s life when he stops bustin’ knuckles and starts bustin’ caps and usually it’s when he becomes too old to take an ass whoopin’. I don’t carry a gun to kill people. I carry a gun to keep from being killed. I don’t carry a gun to scare people. I carry a gun because sometimes this world can be a scary place. I don’t carry a gun because I’m paranoid. I carry a gun because there are real threats in the world. I don’t carry a gun because I’m evil. I carry a gun because I have lived long enough to see the evil in the world. I don’t carry a gun because I hate the government. I carry a gun because I understand the limitations of government. I don’t carry a gun because I’m angry. I carry a gun so that I don’t have to spend the rest of my life hating myself for failing to be prepared. I don’t carry a gun because I want to shoot someone. I carry a gun because I want to die at a ripe old age in my bed, and not on a sidewalk somewhere tomorrow afternoon. I don’t carry a gun because I’m a cowboy. I carry a gun because, when I die and go to Heaven, I want to be a cowboy. I don’t carry a gun to make me feel like a man. I carry a gun because men know how to take care of themselves and the ones they love. I don’t carry a gun because I feel inadequate. I carry a gun because, unarmed and facing three armed thugs, I am inadequate. I don’t carry a gun because I love it. I carry a gun because I love life and the people who make it meaningful to me. “Police Protection” is an oxymoron. Free citizens must protect themselves. Police do not protect you from crime; they usually just investigate the crime after it happens and then call someone in to clean up the mess. Personally, I carry a gun because I’m too young to die and too old to take an ass whoopin’.”

Author unknown (but obviously brilliant)

Remember the average response time to a 911 call is over 4 minutes.

The average response time of a 357 magnum is 1400 FPS.

Hat Tip to my friend Ken who is a police officer.

Amy Bishop Alabama Shooter AKA Moonbat http://cookiecrumbexpress.com/blog1/2010/02/16/amy-bishop-alabama-shooter-aka-moonbat/ http://cookiecrumbexpress.com/blog1/2010/02/16/amy-bishop-alabama-shooter-aka-moonbat/#comments Tue, 16 Feb 2010 15:19:18 +0000 Administrator http://cookiecrumbexpress.com/blog1/?p=527 What a surprise Amy Bishop is and was a festering Barking Moonbat, who was allowed to get away with murder. Naturally she was safe in the world of academia which is a total gaggle of wierdos.
Bishop’s husband, James Anderson, told the Herald his wife had been fighting the university for over a year about a tenure denial, and several months ago received a final decision. She was upset, but not overly emotional, approaching her appeal “like a game of chess,” he said.

A family source said Bishop, a mother of four children – the youngest a third-grade boy – was a far-left political extremist who was “obsessed” with President Obama to the point of being off-putting.

A former auto-body worker claims Amy Bishop put a gun to his chest and demanded a getaway car just minutes after she shot her brother to death 24 years ago in a controversial case that is now being reviewed.

Tom Pettigrew, 45, told the Herald he was working at the Dave Dinger Ford auto repair shop in South Braintree, near the former Bishop home, when he saw the gun-wielding woman run into the dealership with what he thought was a BB gun.
Pettigrew, of Quincy, who was 22 at the time, recalled telling his co-oworkers: “I’m like, ‘Did I just see what I just saw?’ ”
Pettigrew said he heard noise coming from where car keys are stored, so he went to investigate.

“I go over to the door and I can sense that she’s right near the door,” Pettigrew said. “I’m thinking it’s a BB gun. I open the door and she’s right there and we basically bumped into each other and I got a shotgun right in my chest!”

“And she’s like, ‘Hands up!’ and I’m like, ‘Yes ma’am’ ”

Bishop appeared agitated and nervous, Pettigrew said. The University of Alabama professor now accused of killing three colleagues Friday said she needed a car because, “I got into a fight with my husband and he’s going to kill me,” the worker recalled.

Pettigrew then watched as Bishop walked through the dealership looking at cars, all the while grasping the gun.
By then, police arrived and swarmed the parking lot. One armed officer climbed up on a nearby roof, Pettigrew said, and could have taken her out.

Why did she get away with all this stuff? Connections? Family? Other Progressives? Time will tell. However nothing will change in the rarified air of Universities.

TOTUS

AKA ROTUS Rock Star of the United States. Note the obvious .. the teleprompter. Jimmy Obama needs a teleprompter and an armed guard to make a presentation to a classroom full of 6 year olds.

Unbelievable.
