What Will They Screw Up Today
I received a few nice comments this morning from a woman that has a blog called:
Actually, the comments came in a few days ago but I’m running behind on that sort of stuff. The basketball season is in fever pitch at the moment, and last night Syracuse beat U Conn in a six, (count em), 6 Overtime game. That one just wore me out, and I’m even further behind than usual.
Maryland is still keeping hope alive, and they play Wake Forest at 7 PM tonight, so I’m going to have to get a nap in somewhere if at all possible. As we say around here, “FEAR THE TURTLE!”
The other thing around here to fear, other than mooks, is…kooks, and there are enough of them in Washington now to start handing out leashes. Or straightjackets, depending on your point of view.
The PBO was quoted the other day as saying that he had more important things to do than worry about the economy.
Yeh…like what?
Maybe it was when the Earth, Wind, and Fire concert started, or what days all those huge fundraising parties held by the lobbyists he hates so much were on. Or maybe he was thinking about where he could hide Fat Al from debating Vaclav Hamel. (Fat Al is still learning how to sigh in Czech…HINT: It’s universal Al, you can look like a dope in any language.)
Pelosi’s defenders were all over TV yesterday explaining just how important her job was, and why she needed to have a military plane waiting to whisk her home at a moment’s notice. “Her home is in San Fransisco!” they cried. (Actually, it’s in Marin County, across the bay.)
And she hasn’t lived there in over 20 years. Her primary residence is Washington, D.C., just like all the other honyocks in Congress.
The PBO’s mortgage plan is a disaster.
His treatment of the British Prime Minister was a disaster.
His Secretary of State’ s gift to the Russians was a disaster.
His Treasury Department has people jumping ship faster than off a boat going down.
His appointments are slowing to a crawl because they can’t find anyone willing to go through the process, or they haven’t paid their taxes.
He let Pelosi and Reid walk all over him in the two stimulus bills.
He can’t speak without a teleprompter.
Maureen Dowd and Howard Fineman have already turned on him.
Can things get worse?
Youbetchya.
Let me try and answer a question sent in recently about the best weapon to use inside a house… mace or pepper spray?
You don’t really want to use anything that doesn’t stream. Foggers are out, and what I think is this:
The best thing to use inside is the the Mace Pepper Gun. It has a range of 25 feet. I have demo’d this myself using the water can that you should be using for practice. (It comes with the package.) I put a target on the wall in my office, stood at my computer, and hit the target 17 1/2 feet away with room to spare. With the idea being to keep someone away from you, this is tops.
This person also asked about a steel baton.
That’s good too, but you have to be close to use it. And you don’t want it taken away. If you use a steel baton you use it to inflict maximum damage.
You want to break a hand, or wrist, shoulder, knee, anything to incapacitate the mook, or mooks.
But most important is that you have a plan, or plans. There should be tools all over your living space that you can access quickly, or on the run. Think about your capabilities, and get your tools accordingly.
You want to be like my friend Susan in California who says with confidence, “You don’t want to make an uninvited appearance in my house.”
I can tell you unequivocally that no one would put that dumb Humpty Dumpty back together again.

Stay aware, alert, and have a damn good plan.
