Sexy Asian Farmhouse Antiques

by Smitty Fish Fear Me has a picture of a folding sign in his neighborhood that is right off of Engrish.com. Sort of brought the mighty Tap to mind: Maybe it’s too subtle for some, but mocking the over-sexed nature of rock’n’roll by trying to find innuendo in common agricultural objects is, to my twisted […]

To the Reader Who Bought the Foodsaver V2244 Vacuum Sealer from Amazon

About a week ago, somebody clicked on one of the several Amazon links on our blog and ended up purchasing the Foodsaver V2244 Advanced Design Vacuum Sealer ($79.50) plus several packages of Foodsaver bags ($24.45 and $9.97). The result of your purchase through my Amazon Associates links was a $4.56 commission for me. Thanks! Instapundit sometimes […]

World’s Youngest Blogger Needs Name

by Unborn Son of Smitty Checking in a little early with you readers. I’m not due for launch until July-ish, but already the dark clouds of crisis hang in my future, the way bricks don’t. I need a name that doesn’t suck. My father has suggested “Tiberius Claudius Drusus Nero Germanicus Smith” , which caused […]

I Dig Getting Paid, But Which Is Cheaper: Five Months Pay Lost, Or ObamaCare?

by Smitty Again cribbing the Mighty Instapundit, “I’ll believe it’s a crisis when the people telling me it’s a crisis start acting like it’s a crisis.” Up to the plate steps Michele Bachmann, and the baseball (not to mention the foppish excuse for a pitcher cluttering the mound) weeps in fear: “Because of this discrepancy […]

GOP Hopefuls Will Halt No Whine Before Its Time

Via Protein Wisdom, we have Charles Gasparino in the New York Post: Sure, the candidates offered vague praise for Ryan after the plan’s release on Tuesday. Mitt Romney said Ryan is “setting the right tone for finally getting spending and entitlements under control.” […]

by Smitty (h/t Pirate’s Cove) Lawmakers voted 184-240 against Rep. Henry Waxman’s (D-Calif.) amendment to a GOP-led bill that would strip the Environmental Protection Agency’s power to regulate greenhouse gases. The amendment from Waxman — the top Democrat on the Energy and Commerce Committee — reflects Democratic efforts to cast the bill as an outrageous […]

The Progressive Hits Just Keep On Coming. The GOP Wasted Money?

by Smitty Alan Colmes continues to be a more refined form of silliness than the SOL/PuffHo. The other day I was noting the sanctimonious concern for the poor. Now we observe him, get this, fretting that “GOP Shutdown Threats Already Costing Us Money“. This is hysterical, in both the ancient and modern senses of the […]

Insty’s Sarcasm Exceeds Caustic Level

by Smitty Here: I can predict that President Obama will do something that his supporters used to think was stone-cold evil and unAmerican, and most of them will be fine with it. Oh, wait, that’s already happened? Never mind, then. I blame Fukushima radiation. Oh, and did I mention the #Obama2012Slogans hash on Twitter? Heh: […]
