Most healthy diet indeed!

The longest year??????????

We all remember the great movie about D-Day, "The Longest Day" starring every male star the US, Britain or Germany had to offer! And in black in white.

I submit that this year of 2011 will go down in history as "The Longest POTUS Nomination Race" in an off year........... as in -- it ain't even election year yet.

The quadrennial election year starts in just a few hours..... and that's when the presidential nomination race should start, in my humble opinion! I lay most of the blame on the 24/7 so called 'news' channels who are so desperate to fill broadcasting hours, they create polls, debates, headlines................. just so they can talk about them for hours and days on end!

In fact, all we have managed to do is turn Mr & Ms John Q Public off, keep a whole passel of qualified candidates out of the race because they already have a life and don't need the grief, and sell lots of drugs and soap on TV.....

I don't have a horse in this race yet.... or a dog in this fight! I reckon by March I'll have to hold my nose and vote for one of them because even the worst of them would be better for the country than the male version of Maxine Waters we have in the White House now. Only good thing I can say about his first three years - he's a man of his word! He said he would destroy the economy and the country, and he's doing a hell of a job of it!!

Here's to 2012! Things can only get better!!



Drive safe this evening - we need your vote next November, and only dead Dim's are allowed that privilege!!

Have public employee unions NO SHAME?

The Denver Police Protective Association is helping Denver policeman Derrick Saunders file an appeal because he was fired......................................... merely for being arrested for driving 143 mph in a 55-mph zone (that would be 88 MPH OVER THE SPEED LIMIT.... not to mention kicking a blood-alcohol level of .089 percent....

The Denver Police Protective Association apparently want Denver to give Officer Saunders back HIS GUN, HIS VEHICLE, and his BADGE!

And we wonder why public service unions are being held up to scorn??????? Duh!!

Here's a link! Check out that last sentence.... hmmm?

Thanksgiving at Christmas Time

Usually Thanksgiving comes in November, but for me it arrives today. I would like to extend my heartiest thanks to every guy and gal who visited this little site this year.

I believe the is the first Christmas in years where someone hasn't e-mailed me some lame parody of 'The Night Before Christmas!" I thank y'all for that....

In addition,

Nobody e-mailed me a link to some idiot YOUTUBE video of some jerk with too much money and too little sense.... who's house is lit up like the Las Vegas strip with the Boston Pops Orchestra playing the Little Drummer Boy in time to the flashing light strings or vice versa... I thank you again!

I noted this morning that a National Survey shows that 2/3rd of the American Public prefer "Merry Christmas" to 'Happy Holidays'. I kept that thought in mind as I drove by our local school and saw the marquis sign: "Winter Holidays Break" 19 Dec - 1 Jan

Ho Ho Ho

Self Grading - or - De Grading?

Who'da thunk it?

Kate Pavlich has a column on Townhall.com today that is succinct, on point and beyond argument, hopefully she (and Townhall) will forgive me if I don't chop it up here in Pecozbill.....

Guess Who Never Gave Into the Global Warming Myth?

By Katie Pavlich

8/11/2011

That would be Rick Perry, despite that he once worked with Al Gore.

Yes, Perry was once a Democrat and even served as Al Gore's state chairman during the 1988 White House campaign.

But conservatives who dismiss mandatory federal policies on global warming say they're willing to let Perry's Gore connection go. After all, his Austin track record has lately been all about blasting the Obama administration's green agenda, from lawsuits to daily praying for the president to reverse court on EPA regulations.

"If Perry was president, one of the things I'd not worry about is a carbon tax," said Grover Norquist, president of Americans for Tax Reform. "I'd worry about big spiders eating New Jersey first."

As one would expect from a Texas GOP governor, Perry often talks about his energy record by giving the obligatory props to the state's bread and butter industries: oil and gas.

"We've been providing energy for the world almost since Texas was created," Perry said in February 2010, announcing a lawsuit against Obama's EPA climate policies.

Texas under Perry’s watch has also become a thorn in the side of the Obama EPA, with the governor often accusing the administration of unfairly targeting the Lone Star State for political purposes.

Perry's Texas is a lead challenger to the EPA's “endangerment” finding that declares carbon dioxide emissions a public health threat, setting the stage for regulations. And last month, Perry lashed out against the EPA for including Texas in a rule aimed at blocking power plant pollution from drifting across state lines, calling it “another example of heavy-handed and misguided action from Washington, D.C.”

Too bad we can't say the same for GOP Presidential Candidates Tim Pawlenty, Newt Gingrich, Mitt Romney and Jon Huntsman:

The Muslims Are Not Happy!

They're not happy in Gaza.
They're not happy in Egypt.
They're not happy in Libya.
They're not happy in Morocco.
They're not happy in Iran.
They're not happy in Iraq.
They're not happy in Yemen.
They're not happy in Afghanistan.
They're not happy in Pakistan.

So, where are they happy?

They're happy in Australia.
They're happy in England.
They're happy in France.
They're happy in Italy.
They're happy in Germany.
They're happy in Sweden.
They're happy in the USA.
They're happy in Norway.
They're happy in every country that is not Muslim.

And who do they blame?
Not Islam.
Not their leadership.
Not themselves.

THEY BLAME THE COUNTRIES THEY ARE HAPPY IN!
AND THEY WANT TO CHANGE THEM TO BE LIKE THE COUNTRY THEY CAME FROM WHERE THEY WERE UNHAPPY.

Excuse me, but how dumb can you get?

(A fellow Vet sent this to me, but I note it is posted on blogs everywhere - so I can't credit any one individual or blog.... just passin' it on, so to speak)

Speaking of the infamous "3%" !!!

Of course I'm talking about the super minority three percent of the population that make enough noise to change the life styles of the rest of us..... I could be talking about atheists, peaceniks, OWS park sitters..... but today I'm talking about another group.

During your Christmas shopping at Target, Best Buy, Home Depot, some Giant Foods, and others, you may have missed the smiles of the Salvation Army Kettle Bell Ringers. Yep, they are noticeable in their absence. Now then Pilgrims, you may have wondered about their disappearance from the American Christmas shopping scene.

You can send your thanks to the LGBT (lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender) community in our towns and states. It seems they threatened these big retailers with a dreaded boycott if they let this Christian, charitable organization light up their doors. Some of these stores rationalize their corporate cowardice by bragging on the company donations to the Salvation Army - but that RINGS (pardon the pun) hollow!

So when you set off on these final days of Christmas shopping - why not buy a lump of coal for the LGBT folks, the cowardly retailers and listen for the sound of the ringing bells and red kettles, head in that direction to do your shopping there! Oh, and maybe drop a buck or five into the kettle.......!

Why let the Three Percenters win?

Couple of thoughts for this cool gray Sunday morning...

I note with interest, but no surprise, that Colt Firearms is thinking of moving their factory to Kissimmee, Florida shortly.

While that move comes as no surprise, the surprise is that the Connecticut gob'mint and UAW expressed surprise that such a move might happen! As my granddaughter would say..... "Duh!!!"

When you tax folks out of their ability to make a profit, regulate them to a point where it becomes impossible to do bid'ness.... what else would one suspect.

Moving from one of the tax capitals in the country to a 'right to work' state with no state income tax seems kinda like a no-brainer to me! But then, I ain't no Connecticut politician with my hand in the Union's pockets either.

'Nother thought!! Every four years I get plumb upset with the Republicans when they form their circular firing squad and all the presidential candidate start shooting each other down. This year - it appears that they have changed their tactics.... it's starting to look like a mutual suicide pact!!

Good Lord, three weeks before the first primary and Gob'nor Perry applies for retirement pay AND continues to draw his gob'nors pay at the same time.... Not a smart conservative move - Mr Gob'nor!!

Newt the Grinch, opines that if he is elected president and the Supreme Court rules on a Constitutional question in a way that he opposes.... he'll just ignore them.

Ron Paul, appears ready to step in and replace Ross Perot's 'crazy aunt in the basement' and be the new 'crazy uncle in the attic'.

John Huntsman is more concerned with impressing Joy Behar and whazzername with the dreadlocks on the View than he is in impressing Mr and Mrs Republicans.

And of course, who could forget that Romney feller. Been running for public offices for almost twenty years, only one once - Gob'nor of Taxachusetts and Romneycare - now wants us to believe he's an outsider by his choice, not the voters.

And that young lad from Pennsylvania and young lady from Minnesota, both running to be Homecoming King & Queen over the Tea Party -- need to quit looking in the mirror and start looking at the polls.

Oh well, Ole Pecoz has been sayin' that Obamanation was doing such a terrible job that the proverbial 'Ham Sandwich' could beat him next year. Maybe I'll be proved right and a Ham Sandwich will beat him!! Stay tuned.

Sorry 'bout my absence.....

Your humble host has been doing a couple of 'book signings' and working on a sequel to 'The Judge ...Is Not The Jury" this past week. We've kinda takin' a likin' to Chief Spenser and his Thai-American Police captain wife, so decided they ought to move on....... to other adventures.

(pssst, I'm told that "Booklocker.com" still has a few available if you are looking for that last minute gift....!)

Anyway, I apologize for my absence. I'll try to behave for a while.

Architectual Art or Arrogant Insult?

The Dutch architects of these twin hi-rise apartment towers to be built in South Korea deny any similarities to the twin towers of the World Trade Center that were brought down.

What do you think?

By the way, Pilgrims, the designer for these towers is Daniel Libeskind, the designer of the original architect for the new World Trade Center..... ???

Take a 'Cain' to her......

"If this woman claimed she was fondled by Herman Cain
instead of a TSA inspector, she'd have her own talk show
on MSNBC by now."

The picture of OOOOPS!

This is a picture of 'OOOOPS!',

This young felon (with a rap sheet) decided to hold up a car driver parked at the curb. Not satisfied with just the money given to him at the point of a gun, he ordered the victim out of the car.

Big mistake, the victim - a martial arts expert and 'ultimate' fighter, took action and the Chicagoland idiot ended up looking like this when the police arrived. Not to mention also shooting himself in the ankle!!

Not a good day. Click here for the rest of the story.

Rick Perry finally remembers.....

Here is an political Ad that only ran once...... but that I would like to see many more times............

Finally..........suspicions confirmed!!!

Researchers find poop-throwing by chimps is a sign of intelligence

If throwing poop on each other and the masses is a sign of intelligence as reported in this finding in PhysOrg.com, it could lead to the conclusion that we have the greatest collection of intellects in the world located on both ends of Pennsylvania Avenue in Washington DC!!

They have been throw'n poop on each other and us for a hundred years now.........

Let them eat their cake on the subway!!!

Last evening, Wednesday - November 30th - the annual Christmas Tree lighting at Rockefeller Center in New York City took place. This annual celebration and event, attended by tens of thousands, added to the usual evening gridlock that that great city suffers regularly. You have to have attended one in your lifetime just to see how crowded and locked down it actually is.

The White House staff, I'm speaking of the decisions makers here, not the poor Secret Service and other Protective services hirlings, were apparently the only folks in the free world to not know of this annual mob scene. So.... they scheduled Obamanation and his humongous entourage of limos, SUVs, and escort lit up police cars - to totally tie up Manhattan so that Bo could attend three (count 'em, three) different deep pocket fund raisers around the city in one evening.

Talk about locking down a city!! Last time I looked, there were 365 evenings in most years. Why in the name of Queen Antoinette would they choose November 30th for their evening of gridlock?

Why indeed? Unless it was simply to show they can.................?
