Re-Baiting a Castroid

Wednesday, July 27th, 2005

I think the Barking Commie Moonbat that Tex has been baiting is a tad confused about a few things, such as:

over 12 U$ presidential terms,

Yes, because we actually have elections, instead of the having the same rat-bastard murderous thug remain in power until he dies. (c.f. Arafat)

5 DEAD U$ presidents,

Well, we do tend to elect older men to the office. Only one of those five died in office.

2 impeached U$ presidents,

Err… one impeached. Nixon was never impeached. B.J. Clinton, however, *was*.

and Fidel Castro is still kicking U$ ASS !!

Right, I can’t even begin to tell you how much shame we felt when castro gave free rice cookers to people with no electricity, clean water or food. We had a national day of mourning when the oh-so-enlightened fidel refused foriegn aid for the damage from hurricane Dennis. The shame we felt when we saw the enlightened state of political discourse in the socialist paradise. Yes, fidel is truly kicking our asses.

Now go pound a banana up your ass, chimp.

Likewise, you dictator fellating commie fuckwad.

Hey, Val, when the cuban people finally rise up and overthrow the bastard and his murderous thugs, can we call it the Mojito Revolution? ‘Cuz that would be kinda cool.

I didn’t take that many this year, but the better one’s are up on flickr.

Gratuitous Respone To Musikal Posting

I’d forgoten I’d taken this picture in Dublin.

The G.F. Handel Bar, somewhere around here.

I took the picture because it seemed odd that a pub in Dublin would be named after Handel, but it turns out The Messiah had it debut there in eighteen-mumblety-something. Can’t remember. Robert’d know since he’s got a book.

FEH!

It’s 3 AM and I’m still awake.

This is part of my body’s plot to drive me insane.

I need a new host body.

Possibly The Best Line Ever Uttered On The Internet

New Design Defeats Masters In DEATH MATCHES!

Sunday, July 10th, 2005

Yes, kids, that’s Count Danté up there. Master of the Black Dragon Fighting Society, Defeater of the world’s top masters of JUDO, BOXING, WRESTLING, KUNG-FU, KARATE, AKIDO, etc. in Death Matches.

Yes, Count Danté.

Why? Because when you come across something THIS FREAKIN’ COOL:

well, obviously something Must Be Done. And since I’ve been in a near-terminal blog funk lately, well the power and sheer deadlieness of Count Danté was just what I needed to get my Chi centered again.

Now, admittedly, the design still needs some work. I need to find a good Chop-Socky font so I can make some badges for the sidebar. And the link colors need changed. And there’s probably other crap I need to fix. But Count Danté could not be contained. His Forbidden Secrets of Dim Mak had to be unleashed on the Interwebs. Also, it’s late and it’s going to be a busy week, what with Comic-Con starting Thursday and no leave time remaining to yours truly,

Count Danté Will Not Be Denied!

In fact I think it’s safe to say that Count Danté would sweep the leg, even at risk of disqualification.

You can even order Count Danté’s book.

“Yes, this is the deadliest and most terrifying fighting art known to man- and is completely without equal. These maiming, multilating, disfiguring, paralyzing and crippling techniques are known by only a few people in the world. An expert at Dim Mak could easily kill many Judo, Karate, Aikido, and Gung Fu experts at one time with only fingertip pressure using his murderous Poison Hand Weapons.”

For $15.95 that may be the best deal on the internet.

Heck, these guys approve.

(Count Danté introduced to Bad State of Gruntledness by Chris’s Invincible Super Blog. Chris has my eternal thanks. I’m truly a new man. Also, I snagged the completely bitchin’ Knight Rider piccy from Chris. That may actually be among the top-ten things ever posted to the Intenets.)

Chili Reflux

Tuesday, July 5th, 2005

I made some changes to my chili recipe this weekend. I may have outdome myself.

Combine in large pot:

2 large (15 oz.) cans Red Beans or Pinto Beans (I prefer Red beans, just for color)
1 24 oz. Bottle Young’s Oatmeal Stout
2 cups beef broth
1/2 tsp. thyme
1 Tbsp. Seasoned salt
2 bay leaves
5 Tbsp. Chili powder
1 Tbsp. Cayenne powder*

Cook the above over low heat while you prepare:

1 lb. Beef chorizo.
Just go ahead and dump it all in, grease and everything.

2 lbs. ground sirloin or ground chuck
(Course ground works better)
1 medium sweet onion, finely chopped
1 head garlic, minced

combine beef and onion in a skilett and cook untill beef is just cooked through and onion is limp. Add the garlic in the last two minutes of cooking.

Combine meat with beans and cook over low heat until thick (about 2- 2 1/2 hours)

I took this batch to a party on Sunday and people were raving about it. I may have achieved perfection.
