It's not surprising that President Obama has reversed himself on his promise to pull out of Iraq. Now we're leaving four divisions (roughly 50,000 troops) there.
Our goof-ball president (left) in his role as Messiah/Mahdi, and his gang of misfits, are working hard to enact legislation to ban firearms. All it succeeds in doing is disarming the honest. Criminals are criminals and keep what they have, making it much easier for them to prey on the disarmed public. I understand that not all countries are like the US - but in the US, statistics show that only 2/100th's of 1% of all firearms in America are ever used to commit a crime. The number is completely insignificant. Yet the liberal agenda calls for their elimination in the hands of the law abiding.
Let's face it, none of us will live forever. The Japanese Oboe has become the solution to eternal remembrance. (sort of a creepy Japanese thing)
On this date, 837 AD, Halley's Comet reached it's 15th perihelion (recorded) in its ongoing journey between the inner and outer solar system. The first recorded visit of Halley's Comet to the inner solar system took place at 240 BC. The most recent visit took place in 1986. The next will take place in 2061 and I won't be alive to see it. The comet returns every 75 to 76 years.
The movie is not for the faint of heart, but it's well done and the acting is first rate. It also accurately depicts a Russian Mafia Family operation in Great Britain.
Joe (Slow Joe) Biden seems to put his foot in his mouth every time they hand the poor, senile fool a microphone. Now he went an insulted the President's homosexual voting block. Yesterday the president showed how little he thought of the economic recovery (stimulus package that isn't) program by placing Slow Joe in charge of it. This guy is a heartbeat away from the presidency. 
On the morning of February 25, 1779, Lieutenant Colonel George Rogers Clark accepted British Lt. Gov. Henry Hamilton's unconditional surrender at Vincennes. Hamilton rewarded local Indian tribes for attacking colonists and was indirectly responsible for the murder of many women and children along the frontier. Following this victory, Colonel Clark and his militia marched on and invested the British fort at Detroit.
30 April commemorates the historic battle between 62 French Foreign Legionnaires and 2,000 Mexican infantry 146 years ago. Could I be forgiven for not eating blood sausage and singing Le Boudin? - if even in the privacy of my home - 
Is it true that women don't like snakes, lizards, toads, frogs, rats, mice and other pets that men tend to like? If true, why?
No, I'm not making this up - it comes from the Jet Propulsion Laboratory website. The comet's green color comes from ionized cyanogen and carbon gasses emit radiation in the green wavelengths - a green comet. JPL scientists believe this is the first time this comet entered the inner solar system. Tonight will be the best night to view the comet (through binoculars) when it's 38 million miles away. It will be visible in the southeast in late evening below the planet Saturn (see image above). A green comet? Who would have thought?
Wave Adaptive Modular Vehicle - You have high expectations from my blog. I work not to disappoint you. When you thought you'd seen it all in the world of watercraft... The WAM-V conforms itself to the ocean. It doesn't require the ocean to wrap around a hull. The frame is flexible and based on manufacturer claims, it more or less dances over the waves. For those of you who have problems with sea sickness, I suspect that the radical flexibility won't be enough for you to actually enjoy a day at sea. I can't say that it's "cool", but it's clearly interesting.

San Francisco Board of Supervisors member Harvey Bernard Milk and SF Mayor George Moscone were shot to death by fellow city supervisor Dan White on November 27, 1978. It may be cruel to say that Dan White may have saved them a lingering death due to Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome (AIDS). I'm not say that Dan White did them favors, but by killing them, he made them martyrs on the altar of gay rights. Milk lived in the Castro District of San Francisco. Tonight Sean Penn won an oscar for portraying Milk.

Bernard Madoff ran a Ponzi scheme, disguised as a successful Wall Street business, stealing a whopping $50 billion dollars from investors. Today he's under house arrest in his luxury villa, only able to go out to dinner in his local neighborhood (in NY's Financial District) and meet friends in lower Manhattan. A hundred fifty years ago, another, less costly solution would have presented itself.
new year, celebrated February 25, is coming soon. It is the year of the Earth Ox. People born this year may have unusual features because of the nature of the year. However, better to have a child born this year than in the year of the rat or snake (personal opinion only).
The New York Post published this on February 19th (yesterday). I'd say that in some areas of New York, the love for President Obama is gone... it didn't take the press long to turn on him.
I don't own a cat, but there are some useful household cat items you might want to consider as gifts for the cat owner in your life. This CAT PENCIL SHARPENER, for example. Simply stick the pencil where the sun doesn't shine on your kitten and a few grinds later it will be sharp and ready to use again.
