My young ‘un came in from Las Vegas this past week to spend a few days here, meet his new nephew, and try the Old Guy’s cooking. My absence in comments this morning is attributable to me running him up to Buffalo for an early flight out. He’s grown into a tall and rangy lad, hard working, quiet, and unfailingly polite. I have no idea where I went wrong.
Birthdays today include the king of frankenfood; a guy who tried to be a worse president than Wilson and almost succeeded; a guy who will be forever remembered for an oil can; a guy who should have been a lawyer; a guy who probably never played a Les Paul; a guy who should have been in Rocky; a guy who actually wanted to see the sausage being made; the reason that the Indians will never win a World Series; and a guy who always pisses people off when I use him in Old Guy Music.
Something else that pisses people off is Links.

And you failed to implement the OMWC Plan: leave, allow them to have any “government” that results, let them do whatever they want with their Egypt and sea borders, and announce that the second rockets start flying, you’ll level the entire region immediately and without remorse. Then do it, and do it quickly. This is the Middle East, not Canada.
Just curious if he bought his cuck chair at Ikea. I mean, she has made her living at complaining about him publicly for over two decades.
This band was a favorite of the ’60s people who would today be called hipsters. The Old Guy was one of them. Sadly, they are largely forgotten today. Nonetheless, this tune has been much imitated.
I’m sure he played other brands of guitar.

It must be admitted at this point that the entire point of language is to destroy original clarity in favor of contemporary ignorance.

““Everything will be great if we pretend that things are completely different than they are.””
I hate this new style of writing. Get to the point asshole.
I am very annoyed by the seemingly recent overuse of the word “sit”, especially in sports. Examples:
“He was sitting spin” = “He was waiting for a curveball”
“His fastball sat 94” = “His fastball averaged 94 MPH”
“I sit in the [city name] office” = “I work in the [city name] office”
Shut the F up and go eat your avocado toast, effing millennial hipsters.
Also, the recent trend for article headlines to begin with the words “How” or “Why”, as if I’m such a drooling moron I need a journalist to explain it to me.
Prime example:
https://gem.cbc.ca/about-that-with-andrew-chang
Ahh, the classic Voxsplaining.
I think the word “set” has more definitions than any word in English.
MSM feels compelled to use clickbait headlines now. Also the line between news and “analysis” is now nonexistent.
Combine the two and headlines like you describe are the result.
Here’s why that matters.
Btw, that’s not for the benefit of you, the reader. It’s so that the midwit J school graduate who wrote a “wet streets cause rain” piece based on Wikipedia summaries can feel smugly superior. The readers are supposed to assume they are also part of the elect, and the headline is directed in absentia at the flyover country peons who are too stupid to understand. Think: people who watch John Oliver.

And as long as you aren’t part of any of the other out groups the religion of peace doesn’t like.

How can the Air Force Academy possibly be expected to scrape by with 50 fewer civilian administrators?
Also, not for nothing, but if you’ve got that many civilian employees, maybe just privatize the academy and contract with it for the naming rights?
How many faculty versus how many administrative?
There’s a reason we used to mockingly call the Air Force “USAF, Inc.”
Something tells me the Space Force says, “hold my beer” here.
I’m sure the Army, Navy, and Marines are so much better.
There’s gotta be any number of jokes about the Marines not having a (dedicated) service academy.
The Marines tend to do better, because they are chronically impoverished, being the step-children of the Navy.

“a guy who should have been in Rocky” – When I was a young ‘un, I wasn’t allowed to watch it at home, but I absolutely loved “The Rockford Files” when I could catch an episode at our (older) cousins’ house. Part of it was the relationship b/w Rockford and his dad; a bigger part was just how cool James Garner was.
I think I’m going to rewatch that whole series now. Gotta see where I can find it.
(I also like the slightly apocryphal story of how Garner told Bronson to quit welching on a bet and backed down Bronson).
Curious why you weren’t allowed to watch it at home?
I was pretty young back then (5 in late-1974 when it came out) and I think Dad probably thought it wasn’t age appropriate. (Parenting was a thing back then). It may also have aired past my bedtime.
But we visited older cousins a lot and I would get to watch it with them while our parents played cards.
Somewhere on the youtubes is a video of a guy with one of the screen used Firebirds. From memory it might be with Leno.
They actually updated it as GM released new model years for the cars used in the show.
It was Leno, and the guy had one of the sound cars.
It’s on Get TV, which is one of the digital sub-channels that may be in your area.
Supposedly available in my market but nowhere to be found on cable. I thought all broadcast channels were supposed to be present but apparently not.
you think Rockford Files is cool But there are some things that you would change If it were up to you
Ditto, I bought the series on DVD during the pandemic. Did not disappoint. Although when I was young, dad did let me watch it in syndication when I was about 8 or 9.
Our late lamented Wonder Dog was obsessed with that show- she loved the car chases. If the TV was on, as soon as the theme would play, she’d come running into the living room to sit in front of the set and wait for her favorite part.

“A 2-year-old missing Oklahoma girl allegedly suffered a nightmare of abuse at the hands of her parents, who shot her with a BB gun, beat her with a paddle that had “The Last Resort” written on it and finally sold her to a meth dealer, according to local reports.
Ashley Ceejay Rowland, 39, and her boyfriend Joshua Denton, 40, were arrested on Aug. 5 in connection to the abuse against their poor tot London Kerr, who was last seen in the arms of the mother’s methamphetamine dealer in 2022, according to The Oklahoman.
Rowland confessed to police that she gave the poor child to a man identified as “Carlos” in exchange for drugs, the report stated. That man claimed that he was going to travel to Mexico with the child.”

God hates ‘Sconies, it is known.
It’s always kind of boggled my mind that adventurers and explorers crossed vast oceans in wooden ships, then trekked across a continent with no roads, by horseback, wagon train, or boat, fighting off wild animals and hostile natives along the way, surviving on whatever wild game could be caught on the journey, and eventually stopped in the middle of the Great Plains and went “Here it is: paradise! Plant the flag.”

“Six suspects have been indicted on charges related to a violent attack on two people in downtown Cincinnati, Ohio, that occurred late July. The six suspects are facing eight charges each: three counts of felonious assault, three counts of assault, and two counts of aggravated riot.
If convicted on all counts, each suspect faces nearly 30 years in prison, per WLWT5. In announcing the indictments, Hamilton County Prosecutor Connie Pillich said, “What I saw on video is not the Cincinnati I know and love. These charges hold those involved in the attack accountable.”

After Lions safety Morice Norris was taken off the field in an ambulance early in the fourth quarter of Friday’s preseason game in Atlanta, Falcons coach Raheem Morris spoke with Lions coach Dan Campbell, and they both agreed to stop playing.
Morris said after the game that he and Campbell talked on the field in the aftermath of Norris’s injury and felt that out of respect for Norris and his family, it would be best not to play anymore. So the Falcons took one snap with 14:31 remaining in the fourth quarter and all the players on the field just stood together and let the clock run out.

At first, the memes flew fast and furious. The WNBA’s largely LGBTQ+ fanbase was quick to claim the prank as being by and for their community, and emblematic of just how queer the culture of the league is. Some players even joined in on the jokes, with Sydney Colson, an Indiana Fever point guard, tweeting, “Sorry I did NOT mean to throw that so far y’all,” and Kierstan Bell, a guard for the Las Vegas Aces, adding, “Damn how my sh– get there.”
But as the objects kept coming, it got less and less funny.
As someone who writes about the intersection of sports and LGBTQ+ culture, I’ve been watching the story unfold but hesitated to write anything about it because there was a nagging question I couldn’t shake, one that would determine exactly how I felt about this story: Who was throwing the sex toys?
To be clear, I don’t think it was a funny prank regardless of who was doing the throwing, as it both sexualizes and endangers athletes while they are at work. But the dynamic of power is wildly different between queer women fans of the WNBA throwing sex toys onto the court, and men throwing sexual objects at a women’s sporting event
So existential anguish.
“As someone who writes about the intersection of sports and LGBTQ+ culture”
That’s like writing about black people in the Winter Olympics.
The intersection happens 90% at the L, with the remaining 10% being in Men’s figure skating.
A man throwing a sex toy shaped like a male anatomy at a women’s sporting event is perpetuating rape culture, plain and simple.
“This has been going on for centuries, the sexualization of women,” Minnesota Lynx coach Cheryl Reeve told the media earlier this week. “This is the latest version of that. And it’s not funny.”
I’m pretty sure women have been willing participants in this “sexualization” business, for the most part.
ZZZZZZZzzzzzzzz snort ZZZZZZzzzzz….Whut? Huh? Was someone talking?
You would have to be one HELL of an athlete to rape someone by throwing a dildo from the stands. Like Nolan Ryan arm, with Tom Glavine aim level.

“Consider the case of M.A.R., a Cuban man who came to the United States legally in 2024. He was a political dissident in Cuba, as outlined in a recent ruling from the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia, where he faced “threats, harassment, and retaliation from Cuban authorities” for his views. After arriving at the border, he was granted humanitarian parole, obtained a work authorization, and married a U.S. citizen. He has no criminal record.
But when M.A.R. attended an immigration hearing in May of this year, he was detained by Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) officers directly afterward, even though he had met the legal obligations of his parole and his case had not been dismissed at the hearing. He soon found out, according to his attorney, that the government would subject him to expedited removal—a fast-track proceeding with a much less robust process, including no hearing in front of a judge.”

Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth is a fan of a Christian nationalist pastor who believes women should no longer be allowed to vote.
On Thursday, Hegseth, who oversees the US military, reposted a CNN video on the social media site X about Doug Wilson, co-founder of the Communion of Reformed Evangelical Churches. The video notes that Wilson views women as subservient to men and says that in his ideal Christian society, they would not be able to cast ballots.
Hegseth, according to the clip, is one of Wilson’s parishioners. He “very much appreciates many of Mr. Wilson’s writings and teachings,” Pentagon spokesman Sean Parnell said Friday when asked about the secretary’s repost.

These “jokes” and casual comments could have serious consequences. In April, the House passed the Safeguard American Voter Eligibility Act, or SAVE Act, which would require voters to prove their citizenship with documents like a birth certificate or a US passport. Critics worry the change, if passed by the Senate, would block many married women from voting—because tens of millions of women don’t have birth certificates that match the surnames they adopted from their spouses, and more than half of Americans don’t have a passport. “This voter suppression bill will disenfranchise millions of voters, especially married women,” warned Democratic Rep. Ilhan Omar of Minnesota in a social media post in April.
