"An Iranian missile under construction, caught up in a mysterious blast in November, had a range of 6,000 miles, a senior Israeli official said Thursday in a speech outside Tel Aviv."
Get ready kids. We've been in conflict for most of our nation's history. Sometimes for good reasons. Sometimes not.
These control freak assholes are the types that stone their young for the oh-so-serious offense of wanting to hold a dance.... for wanting to have a fucking dance with dance grooves. Now, let me say this... I do not like teenagers (mostly). They're loud, know-it-all, dirty, foul mouthed, lusty.... oh wait, I might be describing myself there..... Anyway - they're a pain in the ass but you don't stone them just because they want to move their groove thang. Plus, I'm old enough to remember these ragheads holding our own hostage and getting all uppity about it. I knew a kid back in the day that had to flee with her family because her daddy was some low level guy within the Shah's government and the fundamentalist assholes who took over Iran would have loved to stone TiTi to death. By the way, TiTi was a totally smoking hot little Iranian thing who loved to wear jeans so tight, she had to lay down on the bed to get them on. Dark eyes, great Persian features, hair that was model quality and an ass that made jaws drop when dudes (and some dudettes) saw her walk by.... ok, back to present day... and these assholes would have loved to stone her because of what her fucking daddy did for a living and that she liked western clothes and wanted to look good. They'd rather fuck goats, I guess.
I spent almost 8 years renting a place after a costly and messy divorce.Because I wanted a dog again, I bought a house.It has had its good moments.But, it has also been costly, time consuming and sometimes irritating compared to renting an apartment.
My thought was to withhold judgment until I got my first year of taxes done as a boomerang “home owner”. Prior to renting a place, I had owned two houses previously but under very different personal circumstances for a few decades. I just got the results of my tax return (done by a CPA) and guess what?I’m getting the princely sum of $1,163 back from the Feds and the State combined. In my old apartment days, I generally paid additional taxes beyond withholding that ranged anywhere from $700 to $900 in any given year.So, that puts me generally $2,000 to the good. As of this moment, I don’t feel as though it has been worth it from a strictly financial point of view. I’m rather disappointed.
In case you’re wondering – Kenny Bing is a regular white Joe Schmoe schlepping his ass into his office gig and “doing the Dew” so he can go out on the weekend and “Do the Dew” with his Linda Lou or with Bing the Wonderdog or just go fishing and smoke a cigar and mind his own business.
I no longer listen to all the “screaming Mimi’s” of the world who yap endlessly about the racial and gender injustices done so that “whitey dude” doesn’t have to relinquish his ill gotten gains in life. In my case specifically – I was born poor to working class parents (daddy was a trucker and mommy was a lunch lady) and have worked since I was fucking 12 so anyone who wants to tell me how I wound up with any ill gotten gains in life based upon my skin color, please step forward and enlighten me… and then I can politely tell you to go fuck yourself.
No problem with it but I suggest you stop your endless yapping about the "inequalities"
Newsflash for you – most regular Joe Schmoe white dudes don’t want much more in life than to make a living, do their extra curricular activities on the weekend and live “a quiet normal life” (thank you Warren Zevon for a wonderful body of work).
It could be much worse - you could be under the thumb of some corn pone Nazi like this jackoff
"A growing number of states are seeking shiny new currencies made of silver and gold.
Worried that the Federal Reserve and the U.S. dollar are on the brink of collapse, lawmakers from 13 states, including Minnesota, Tennessee, Iowa, South Carolina and Georgia, are seeking approval from their state governments to either issue their own alternative currency or explore it as an option."
So, by "normal" labor market do you mean the kind of labor market driven by a debt fueled speculative bubble chasing real estate that inflates in “value”(whatever the fuck that word is supposed to mean anymore) year over year for a decade or more? Is that the kind of “normal” you and the Fed are shooting for, Ben?
Tell you what… you want that kind of "normal" again you better open a retail window at the Fed so that every Tom, Dick and Harry in the country can come on down to their friendly local Federal Reserve Bank and take out a low or no cost loan (with no underwriting criteria outside of the borrower being able to fog a mirror) so that said borrowers can go on a shopping spree over at your recently created bubblicious stock market and speculate with*cough* “invest” the money he borrowed from you in Facebook’s upcoming IPO… oh, but wait.. Then you’d be the direct lender trying to collect that money back from Tom, Dick and Harry…. Well, don’t worry – as you've stated in the past, you’ve got a printing press so you can just print more Federal Reserve Notes when needed, lend it to Tom, Dick or Harry and he can repay you with the fresh Federal Reserve Notes you just loaned him….problem solved. (You’re welcome, asshole)
Life has taught me that the best way to deal with wannabe fascist control freaks who are in fact actually nothing more than Little Lord Fauntleroy types is to give them complete control and then require them to deal with the aftermath of their decisions and actions --- on their own. More often than is not, they choke on their own hubris….or step all over their own dick….whichever you prefer.
