The Other McCain

Fratricide Mastery Jolts Resting Agriculture

by Smitty The Sherrod story either belies the whole notion that the Administration has its act together, or these Progressive overlords are so many moves ahead of the observers as to be playing chess, when we think the game is checkers. This week’s FMJRA lets the chips fall on the former theory.

Fail Mosque Jokers Really Annoy

by Smitty This week’s FMJRA offers Scalia body language to New York City Minor Bloomberg, who loses the respect of the title ‘Mayor’ from this blog, due to a pattern of invertebrate cretinous behavior. To Brussels with your dhimmitude, Bloomberg. Over in the comments on the Geller post, Kn@ppster makes a straight libertarian play on […]

Friday’s Marriage Jubilee: RSM’s Aging

by Smitty FMJRA celebrates Stacy McCain’s first marriage event as a parent, quite a corner to turn in the life of a man. Will grandparental possibilities threaten to curb the gonzo flame?

Flight Made (Grand) Junction Re-direct Adroitly

by Smitty Catching up on the usual chores. I’m in Idaho, visiting family, having been delayed due to Heap Big Winds around Denver. United Airlines did a fine job of managing safety and timeliness. We can all gripe about being herded about, but being alive to do the griping is the main feature.

Four Megahits of Joy Reliably Anticipated

by Smitty This weeks FMJRA notes that we will cross the four million hit mark either this weekend, or soon into next week. Woo hoo.
