* – for the first time in ages I went bowling. The other night Cookiemaker, Little Man, and I went to a local alley and gave the big ball variety a whirl. It cost a bit more than I expected (around $30 for three pairs of shoes and a string of bowling for each of us), but Little Man was excited as hell and had a great time, so it was worth it.

How’d I do? Well, I bowled a 107. I did throw one gutter ball. My lowest frame was a 5, and I did have four spares. No strikes, though. Not bad for the first time in years.

* – according to this week’s Entertainment Weekly, this was the #1 movie in America this time 20 years ago.

Oh, how the mighty have fallen…

* – ok, now I just might start watching Dancing With the Stars.

* – lingerie for KIDS?! Are you fucking kidding me?!

* – did you catch the Harry Potter Universal Orlando ad during the Super Bowl?

* – as long as we’re talking about Super Bowl ads – come on, pro-choice crowd, was the Tim Tebow ad really that bad?

* – on the other hand, at the rate we’re going, that “Green Police” ad might become reality sooner rather than later.

* – I really don’t have anything snarky to say about the Megan Fox ad. I posted it because… well… because it’s Megan Fox!

* – speaking of the Super Bowl, congrats to the Saints. After everything that city’s been through, they deserve some unbridled joy.

* – if you’re a dinosaur geek, you ought to find this link and this link interesting.

Unreal, huh? We actually know, pretty much for sure, the color patterns of a couple of dinosaurs!

* – why couldn’t I have been this talented when I was 13?

(hell, why couldn’t I be that talented now?)

* – cell phones are gender specific?

* – exactly how the fuck is sex-change surgery tax-deductible? Huh?! It’s one thing if a surgery is necessary. It’s quite another if it’s elective, and I’m sorry, but in my book a sex-change is elective.

* – for those of you who can’t possibly understand why I’d like Glenn Beck, Rush Limbaugh, Lou Dobbs, Jerry Doyle, and the like, believe me, I feel the same way about Keith Olbermann.

And here’s a good example why.

* – sheesh, if it’s not Joe Biden or Obama himself, it’s some member of Obama’s cabinet sticking his foot in his mouth.

* – although, as referenced above, it’s not as if Obama can’t do a perfectly fine job of sticking his foot in his mouth himself.

Did you catch that bit of hypocrisy? “When times are tough, you tighten your belts. You don’t go buying a boat when you can barely pay your mortgage. You don’t blow a bunch of cash on Vegas when you’re trying to save for college. You prioritize. You make tough choices. It’s time your government did the same.”

That from a man who just proposed a $3.83 trillion budget?! From a man who repeatedly insists the only way out of this recession is to spend our way out of it?!

What a fucking joke…

* – and what of The One’s proposed plans to reign in government spending? Well, while I’m certainly willing to admit that every little bit helps, let’s take a look at what his proposed spending freezes are really going to accomplish.

* – so, if Nancy Pelosi was so concerned about jobs creation then, why hasn’t she been for the past year or so?

* – bet you never heard this stuff about the response to Katrina.

* – a friend of mine just sent me this e-mail: “What organization is this – 36 have been accused of spousal abuse, 7 have been arrested for fraud, 19 have been accused of writing bad checks, 117 have directly or indirectly bankrupted at least two businesses, 3 have done time for assault, 71 – repeat, 71 – cannot get a credit card due to bad credit, 14 have been arrested on drug-related charges, 8 have been arrested for shoplifting, 21 currently are defendants in lawsuits, and 84 have been arrested for drunk driving, all in the last year!

NBA? NFL?

Nope. The 535 members of your current Congress – the same group of idiots who write and pass laws designed to keep you and I in line!”

The DoubleMint Twins edition!

     (All right, so those aren’t the real DoubleMint Twins, but whatever. It’s my blog and I’ll post whatever pics I want, so there! )

So, you thought with no JARM last week you were getting off the hook, huh? No way, baby – it just means that this week is twice the pleasure and twice the fun!!!

* – I believe this pretty much sums CookieMaker’s perception of our marriage:

Is that my perception of our marriage? Well, no, of course not. I’m not saying she’s wrong, mind you, but perhaps just overstating things. A bit. Sorta. Kinda. Maybe.

*ahem* Let’s just move along, shall we?

* – I clipped this out of today’s paper for Cookiemaker. I’m pretty sure she’ll be looking at Little Man this way in about ten years or so:

* – well, it’s better than him making another movie, isn’t it?

* – I hope they don’t use this thing to stop you just for failure to wear a seatbelt!

* – whaddaya think, folks: Fresh Prince for Prez?

* – OK, I understand the brouhaha surrounding Tim Tebow’s upcoming pro-life commercial during the Super Bowl. I also understand the brouhaha surrounding a gay dating website also wanting air a commercial during the Super Bowl. What I don’t understand is if Tebow’s ad is going to be allowed to air, why isn’t the gay dating site’s?

* – so, if FoxNews isn’t a news organization, then why is it the most trusted source of news in the country?

* – so, if Obama was supposed to be this great uniter and champion of bipartisanship, why is he the most polarizing president ever?

* – wanna fact-check The One’s State of the Union speech (and/or the Republican response)? Go right here.

Note that link is CNN, folks. Not some “kooky right-wing nutjob” site – CNN.

* – speaking if the SotU, I noticed that B.O. called out to his fellow Dems about health care again. Now, lemme get this straight, one of the biggest reasons why the Left supposedly wants their version of health care reform to go through is because they’re worried about health care costs, right?

Well, what if the American people aren’t worried about health care costs?

Sounds ridiculous, I know. However, according to a survey printed on the front page of the January 19th, 2010 edition of USAToday, only 27.3% of the 1,003 adults questioned described their health insurance costs as “expensive.” 42.5% answered “fairly priced,” and 25.5% answered “low cost.”

(4.7% answered “don’t know”)

So, only roughly 1 in 4 Americans think their health care is too expensive, but we need to blow the system up and replace it with something that takes 2,000 pages to describe and will cost $2 trillion?!

* – speaking of fact-checking, just how much of a deficit did Obama inherit from Bush? And just how much has The One really increased the deficit since he’s taken over?

Here’s one take (again from CNN).

* – speaking of the SotU address and fact-checking, didn’t Obama say something about freezing spending and trying to reduce the deficit and blah-blah-blah? Think he was serious about that? Then why did he just submit a $3.83 trillion dollar budget for next year? A budget that will produce record deficits?

* – say, how’s that TARP working out for ya?

* – maybe those political bigwigs are starting to listen to the people, at least in one regard, anyway.

* – speaking of KSM, here’s a real-life preview of what his trial could wind up looking like.

* – “ba-da-bum-bum-bum – another one bites the dust“…

* – hey, guess who’s fault it is that Coakley lost to Brown last week?

That’s right – George W. Bush.

(what hasn’t this guy been blamed for yet?)

* – remember Lt. Col. Allen West? I posted a video of him in a JARM a couple of weeks ago. Well, he believes the GOP needs to embrace the principles of the late, great Dr. King.

* – I don’t know about you, but I sure am (and I don’t even watch him all that much).

Yes he can!!!

It is NOT Teddy Kennedy’s seat! It is NOT the Democrats’ seat. It IS the people’s seat now!

Congratulations, Senator Brown!

* – what won’t they think of next?

* – now this is a cool app for the iPhone!

(I can only hope they come up with something similar for my Droid Eris!)

* – everybody knows who Anne Frank was, but did you know who Miep Gies was?

* – they’re just now getting around to building a memorial for Martin Luther King?!

* – exactly how the hell does an 8-year-old get on the terrorist watch list?

* – for those who might be all up in arms about Rush Limbaugh’s two comments on the earthquake in Haiti, here’s what he actually said.

* – now, Pat Robertson is another matter entirely. What an effing moron.

Not that Danny Glover sounded any better with his comment.

* – an Associated Press study shows that all the infrastructure work being paid for by the stimulus plan has had zero impact on unemployment numbers.

God, I’m glad we spent that $787 billion dollars (that we never had in the first place), aren’t you?

* – regardless of who you think won the debate or how decisively you think they won it, the exchange between Jon Stewart and John Yoo (a legal adviser to G. W. regarding “enhanced interrogation techniques) was fascinating.

* – yeah, I mean, why do a silly American thing like vote on health care when you can just pull some legal chicanery and get what you want regardless of what your constituency says?

* – if you haven’t been paying attention to Massachusetts as of late, a potentially historic vote is going to happen there tomorrow, January 19th. A special election is being held to fill the Senate seat held for the last 46 years by the late Ted Kennedy. The Democrat candidate, Attorney General Martha Coakley, was thought to be a shoe-in to replace Teddy. She’s a Democrat, after all, and this is Massachusetts, after all. At one point, fairly recently, she held a double-digit lead over her opponent, Republican Scott Brown.

That was then. This is now.

One recent telephone survey of 600 potential voters in Massachusetts has Brown ahead by three points.

What’s helped Brown’s surge? How about statements like this:

Did you catch that? About 40 seconds in? Allow me to repeat it: “With all due respect, it’s not Teddy Kennedy’s seat and it’s not the Democrats’ seat, it’s the people’s seat.” 

The only time in my life I ever wished I was a citizen of Massachusetts was at that moment, if only so my citizenry of that state could last long enough to legally cast a vote for Mr. Brown.

How has Coakley responded to the challenge? Well, she’s misspelled Massachusetts (apparently there’s another “e” after the last “t”), looked down at Brown’s willingness to stand out in the rain and meet his potential constituents at Fenway Park, and accused Curt Schilling (a fierce Brown supporter) of being a Yankees fan.

Oh,  and then there was this incident.

Great. Chicago-style politics in Boston. Perfect.

Best of luck to you, Scott Brown.

* – I’m a little late throwing some attention this guy’s way:

That is former Army Lieutenant Colonel Allen West, a candidate for Congress in the state of Florida.

What do I like about this guy? First and foremost, he pulls no punches. “Political correctness” is not in his lexicon. Check out his response to Harry Reid’s “light-skinned Negro” comment.

‘Nuff said.

* – finally, here’s a great visual breakdown of exactly who’s paying how much of the income taxes in this country:

But the rich aren’t paying enough. Uh-huh. Yeah. Right. Sure.

* - 100 quotes every geek should know.

* – At first I couldn’t believe this guy couldn’t find a job. I mean, I thought it was pretty obvious. Then I saw what he wasn’t willing to do in spite of his, ah, “God-given talent.”

Hey, buddy – pride doesn’t put food on the table.

* – my sincerest condolences to VP Biden.

* – want another reason as to why we shouldn’t try KSM & Co. in a civilian court?

How about $400 – $600 million reasons?

* – can somebody please explain to me exactly how the fuck the “Crotch Bomber” is an “alleged suspect,” how the fuck he gets a trial in civilian court, and how the fuck he’s even allowed to enter a “not guilty” plea?

Are you fucking kidding me?!

Now, allow me to throw a couple of quotes at you regarding the whole “shock” thing that people like President Obama and his counterterrorism advisor, John Brennan, say you should be feeling in regards to the system allowing Umar Farouk Adbulmutallab to board Northwest Flight 253 onChristmas Day, 2009:

“At regular intervals Dee would aggregate the RFIs (requests for information) and input them into various databases to see what information was available on each topic. Incredibly, the multitude of government databases were not (were referring to 1998) – and still are not (are referring to 2008) – linked. Therefore, finding key and essential information is still like a game of go-fish: you have to ask the “right” system or you’ll never get the information that may make the difference between mission success and mission failure.” Pete Blaber, The Mission, The Men, and Me

“The officers in charge weren’t motivating the enlisted men (note: that’s a euphimism for airline executives and their security personnel. You know, the people who are supposed to be keeping bombers off of the airlines you and I fly on), and it showed. An example? You want an example? Okay. Your safety depends on the security guards who man the metal detectors and X-ray machines, right? Right. And how much are those people paid? Minimum wage.

So how do you motivate them? I’d give them a big fat bonus for every piece of contraband they discover. But that solution is too simple for most airlines. What they do is yell and scream. So, what you get is a security guard who doesn’t give a rusty fuck whether I’m carrying an attache’ case full of papers or an attache’ case full of grenades.” Richard Marcinko, Rogue Warrior II: Red Cell 

It has been said many times by those in a position to know that all the intelligence the United States needs to keep itself safe is gathered on a daily basis. The information is there. The problem is getting it to the people who can do some thing with it or about it. There are many intelligence-gathering agencies in the U.S. federal government (CIA, DIA, FBI, NSA, DEA, INS, etc., etc., etc…) and they are all in competition with each other for federal budget dollars. As a result, they guard the intelligence they gather jealously, national security be damned. It’s not about national security – it’s about being able to claim that some vital piece of info was gathered by my agency, and therefore my agency deserves a bigger budget instead of your agency.

Petty? Yes. But it is what it is, and it’s been that way for a long, long time. It shouldn’t shock you. The ten-year period Blaber was referring to is a drop in the bucket. Blaber, by the way, was a commanding officer of Delta Force. The RFIs he was asking for in the quote above were in regards to Delta’s first tasking in coming up with a plan to capture or kill Usama bin Laden.

I give you the Marcinko quote because of the current administration’s reaction to the Flight 253 debacle – let’s bring in more technology. Full-body scanners and more restrictions on what can and cannot be brought on board a plane and all the machines that supposedly can detect explosives and WMD material and so forth. Bottom line? Technology don’t mean shit if the people manning it don’t give a fuck, and if they’re poorly trained, poorly motivated, and/or poorly compensated, they won’t give a fuck.

Rogue Warrior II: Red Cell was written in 1994, but obviously not much has changed in the past fifteen years. Marcinko is uniquely qualified to talk about security and counterterror. He was the founder and first commanding officer of SEAL Team Six, the U.S. Navy’ equivalent of Delta Force. After he left Six, Marcinko commanded Red Cell, a special unit of former members of Six created by a Navy admiral to test Navy security by pretending to be terrorists and launching mock raids on various Navy installations. Even though those installations knew they were coming (something that wouldn’t happen in the real world), Red Cell always won.

Here endeth the lesson.

* – I’m not sure if this article from a recent edition of Newsweek is intended to be a fantasy, a comedy, or both.

* – gee, imagine my disappointment.

* – as opposed to the Left’s disappointment (which I find I can bear with great fortitude ).

* – hey, yeah, whatever did happen to that whole “transparency” thing?

* – as much as $9.5 million of your tax dollars, via the stimulus bill, went to 14 zip codes in Virginia that were either actually in other states or…

wait for it…

didn’t even exist!

* – another great example of “if a Republican had said this…”

I am an idiot.

To many of you out there (especially those of you who lean to the left politically), the previous statement was no great shocker, I’m sure.

But why I am I saying it right now?

Well, for quite some time now I’ve been linking to videos from pjtv.com under the assumption that you could see them. Finally, it came to my attention that you could not. Nevertheless, I continued to link to them anyway, in part in hopes that some of you might be encouraged to register with pjtv, at leat at the introductory (read free) level. Then the light bulb went off.

“Hey, dumbass,” it said, in its best Peanut imitation, “there’s this thing called YouTube. Ya might wanna check it out. Just sayin’…”

So, with that lightning bolt from the heavens, I will now annoy the living daylights out of the aforementioned lefties out there with a series of posts with YouTube links to PJTV videos, arranged by their various personalities (Bill Whittle, Andrew Klavan, Joe Hicks, Alfonzo Rachel, Sonja Schmidt, Steven Crowder, etc…)

Today, we’ll start with Andrew Klavan and his “On the Culture” series…

* – I forgot to mention another Xmas gift I got that I just absolutely LOVE – a new bathrobe. It’s fuzzy and fleece and soft and oh so warm! I’m wrapped up in it as I write this, with a steaming cup of coffee within easy reach, and yes, I am laughing at all the poor slobs who have to be out in the cold today.

Does that make me a bad person?

* – The Unit ROCKS!!! I can’t believe I didn’t watch this show when it came out. Yeah, sure, the tactical military stuff and the guns going off and the stuff blowing up entertains me on a base level, but I personally think the stories, acting, and character development are pretty damn good, too. I can’t believe CBS cancelled this show. I’m only halfway through the first season and just can’t wait to see it all.

Oh, and Dennis Haysbert’s character, Jonas Blane, kicks ass!

* – yes, they really are going to remake Clash of the Titans.

However, read this and then ask yourself if there isn’t some kind of higher power out there somewhere.

Somebody call Al Gore!

And now on to the political portion of our show…

* – the 10 most ridiculous uses of YOUR TAX DOLLARS in the “stimulus” plan.

France’s Sarkozy Now ‘Anti-Obama’

Soon after Barack Obama won the White House, French President Nicolas Sarkozy referred to him as “my friend” and strove to become the first European leader to meet with the newly elected American.

Now the honeymoon between the two leaders is over, according to The Financial Times.

Sarkozy has now shifted to “an anti-Obama position,” said Jean-Christophe Cambadelis, a spokesman for the opposition Socialists.

France turned down an American request to send more troops to Afghanistan, and Sarkozy has expressed frustration at what he perceives as Obama’s equivocation over Iran’s nuclear program and at the priority Obama has placed on the long-term goal of eliminating all nuclear weapons, the Times reports.

In a sharply worded speech

to the United Nations General Assembly in September, Sarkozy alluded to Obama’s disarmament goals.

“We are right to talk about the future, but before the future there is the present, and the present is two major nuclear crises,” he said, referring to Iran and North Korea. “We are living in a real world, not a virtual world.”

Jack Kelly wrote on the Real Clear Politics Web site that Sarkozy “was furious with Barack Obama for his adolescent warbling about a world without nuclear weapons” at a meeting Obama chaired of the United Nations Security Council.

Sarkozy is reportedly still miffed over Obama’s refusal to attend an event with the French leader during his June visit to France to commemorate the D-Day landings, and has made disparaging comments about Obama’s decision-making and lack of prior government experience.

“French frustration is aimed at Washington’s hesitancy or even weakness,” according to the Times.

But Sarkozy could be stressing his differences with the U.S. for domestic purposes, one senior French official disclosed, adding, “On the fundamentals we are much closer to President Obama than we were to President Bush.”

I thought Obama was going to make everybody love us?

Hey, this is The Eyrie - what were you expecting, political correctness?

* – thank you very much to everybody who sent me best Christmas wishes. They are appreciated and very warmly returned.

* – an early Happy New Year to all.

* – this past Christmas Day marked the third anniversary of the Eyrie. Where does the time go?

* – how’d everybody do with their Xmas loot haul? I came away pretty happy. New dress shirts, ties, and pants for work, a new pair of mocs, a big bottle of Blanche de Chambly beer, Season One of The Unit on DVD, Guests of the Ayatollah and Killing Pablo by Mark Bowden, The Lance Thrower and The Eagle by Jack Whyte, A History of the World in Six Glasses by Tom Standage, And a Bottle of Rum by Wayne Curtis, a new Atlanta Falcons baseball cap, and a new travel mug. 

I’m a little bummed I didn’t get Assassin’s Creed II, though. Oh, well. I certainly can’t complain.

Cookiemaker got new jeans, new PJs, Angels & Demons, Harry Potter & the Half-Blood Prince, Bram Stoker’s Dracula, and Mary Shelley’s Frankenstein on DVD, The Lost Symbol by Dan Brown, The Gathering Storm by Robert Jordan, and the entire Chronicles of Narnia series on audio CDs.

Little Man made out really well, too. An acoustic guitar, lots of books, plenty of Playmobil knights, soldiers, and dragons, a couple of sets of PlayDo, a couple of sets of Moon Sand, etc., etc., etc…

Oh, yeah, our trash man is going to love us!

* – after an ungly 10 – 7 win over the Jets just over a week ago and a 31 – 3 stomping of the Bills yesterday (that wasn’t quite as pretty as the score might indicate), my Falcons are just one win away from posting back-to-back winning seasons for the first time in franchise history.

* – I am my fantasy football league’s champion! After smoking Mrs. C.’s hubby 102 – 53 a week ago (sorry, Mr. C.! ), I eked out a 42 – 37 win this week.

* – here’s a trio of bits the teachers out there should appreciate:

NOT smarter than a fifth grader!

* – gotta love Bill Cosby

* – The Princess and the Frog was pretty good.

* – can’t wait to see Sherlock Holmes.

* – it’s the holiday season, so I thought I’d spare you all the politics for a week.

You’re welcome.

Good.

I made the mistake of reading the lyric/story synopsis insert that goes with the Trans-Siberian Orchestra’s The Lost Christmas Eve CD this morning and damn near broke down in front of my wife.

* – hey, yeah, just where did Rudolph come from?  

* – just to get in the spirit, here’s some of my favorite Christmas songs:

(that one’s for Cookiemaker – she’s half Polish. I know, I know - I feel bad for her, too )

(yeah, that one’s pretty much just for me. I mean, I’d give it to Cookiemaker, but it’d be for me. ;) )

Yeah, right!
