The Occasional Observer

Here's his review of the other Tennessee Whiskey:

Seeing as how our newest contributor is Raekwon, I figured I'd bring back an oldie (but goodie)

Had the opportunity to taste this fine spirit thanks to Beetz. A wonderful review from a website I'll be sure to visit again.

Just asking.

"The euro is burning, the EU is falling apart and yet here they are, highly paid, highly pensioned officials trying to deny us the right to say what is patently true."

I'm not even making this shit up.

Good times.

I love learning about the amazing world of nature.

From the Honey Badger Wiki entry:

Because of the toughness and looseness of their skin, honey badgers are very difficult to kill with dogs. Their skin is hard to penetrate, and its looseness allows them to twist and turn on their attackers when held. The only safe grip on a honey badger is on the back of the neck. The skin is also tough enough to resist several machete blows. The only sure way of killing them quickly is through a blow to the skull with a club or a shot to the head with a powerful rifle, as their skin is almost impervious to arrows and spears.[26]

Now I can give you up to the minute updates from my cell.  

Hoping the extra fiber will get things moving.

More to come...

A wretched hive of scum and villainy.

Now this, my friends, is change you can believe in. Maybe W knew what he was talking about when he said he could see into Putin's soul: a world where hot Russian chicks are looking to get after it. Anywhere, anytime.

Any guesses?

Here are mine:

Scenario 1 (Newt wins FL):

Santorum/Bachmann: After Iowa (1/4)
Huntsman/Johnson: After NH (1/11)
Perry/Cain: Few days after SC (1/24)
Gingrich: Late April
Paul: Never drops out, takes it right to the convention to enjoy another 15 minutes.

The main question here is how solid is Cain's support? If he remains in double-digits through FL, Newt will have a hard time winning FL, and Mitt might sew it up early. If Cain drops out after SC, Newt might win FL, and that would sustain him through super Tuesday and beyond, only to bow out after the winner-take-all primaries on 4/24.


Scenario 2 (Mitt wins FL):

Santorum/Bachmann: After Iowa (1/4)
Huntsman/Johnson: After NH (1/11)
Perry: Few days after SC (1/24)
Gingrich: Mid-Feb (after CO)
Cain: Late April
Paul: Never drops out, takes it right to the convention to enjoy another 15 minutes.

Did Kubrick and Clarke see this coming way back when? Is this the true message behind 2001?

This is a message that will resonate with the base. It is a differentiator, and it has the added benefit of being provable based on track record. It separates Newt from both Cain and Mitt.

Don't look now, but MB's pushing for some intrade profit...

Anyone just feel like we're living in bizarro land? The last few weeks have been even weirder than the exceptionally weird last couple of months, with an emphasis on the dangerous.

David Axelrod's Pattern of Sexual Misbehavior - HUMAN EVENTS

Isn't it just coincidental that, despite the fact that Herman Cain has never lived there, all of his accusers come from... wait for it...

Chicago.

Many of you have met them both personally.

Raekwon the Chef is a co-worker of mine, and also a cigar-smoking, card playing, booze swilling degenerate. Additionally, as he pointed out, he is a "neoconservative" voice on this blog, which apparently means he is also an "investment banker" who "likes to charge interest." #OWS #KKK

Michaelangelo Merisi suffers from borderline personality disorder, and shares sexual appetites with Jerry Sandusky. OK, that's probably taking it too far. But he has played lacrosse, and also gone to Duke. You be the judge...

An Occasional "Welcome" (lukewarmth intended) to you both.

Watch the video... song is hot...

Just take all of my money. Buy someone else a green car, organic food, and solar panels to heat their house I paid for.

A rather large asteroid is apparently coming really close to the Earth later today. Like, inside of the moon's orbit close.

Scientists tell us there is NO CHANCE it will hit the planet.

Which is surprising because I kinda figured that scientists would be saying




"RUN YOU ARE ALL GOING TO DIE!!!!!!!!"

As Byron York reports here, there is a Gingrich boomlet in Iowa, with an outright boom potentially around the corner.
