Fatwa Arbuckle: Misanthropologist

Happy Caturday (despite today’s thread pic; well done, TeX!), GN!

1096 โ€“ Peter the Hermit gathered his army in Cologne.

Huh…I had no idea that Peter Noone was that old. (They must have smelled pretty good, ‘tho…unless it was Drakkar Noir.) ๐Ÿ˜‰

They already have them in parts of the Valley. Dark-skinned fellers wearing sombreros and pushing little carts up and down the streets.

Them frozen burritos tho, not great tasting, but OK in a pinch.

Happy Caturday, Gerbil Nation!
Good morning, Fatwa!

Happy birthday, 3 of 7, BrendaK!
Today’s cake would also be suitable for use at KFH&BBQ

Is that, like, Lenin? I’m not sure about a Lenin cadaver-style cake.

I’m sorry I missed out on last night’s captioning contest. Teh Younger was performing in the student-directed one-act plays at his school. The performances were incredible, as was the quality of the writing (some are student written). It amazes me how many students who aren’t in the theater classes audition and land roles in the one-acts. It says a lot that they feel comfortable trying something different.

Lurve teh “cakedaver”…and we know that K8-E haz mad baking skills; just sayin’. (However, that concept might be a little problematic for Joooooish funerals; just sayin’ again.)

A spontaneous search just now for “kosher bbq” yielded that a local Atlanta synagogue has actually scheduled a kosher BBQ competition in October…HAR!

But will delivery be available out here on the Mexican-food-missing Texas prairie, is what I want to know.

TeX --

I know that TX is a geographically ginormous state, but it still seems really weird to me that you can’t find any palatable Mexi-food locally. Alas, delivery of same from SoCal seems a little impractical.

BTW -- K8-E gave us teh brief synopsis of your attempt to find Italian snausage during her visit; I truly appreciate your team effort. (But then, I knew prior to relocating that GA’s not nicknamed “Teh Italian Sausage State”…and for good reason!!!11farkingpeaches!!)

Hey…the relatively recent rise in resurgence of anti-semitism on teh Continent presents a fabulous cable TV programming opportunity: “Real Pogroms of Romania”.

If successful, spin-offs could include everywhere from Austria to teh United Kingdom.

It’s Saturday afternoon nap time, and Fatwa and Jackson are snoring away on their respective couches. There’s a cool breeze and sunshine, the flowering cherry tree is flowering…life is good.

Spent the afternoon out in Fatwa’s SoCal stomping grounds: Thousand Oaks. Me and a buddy showed up for an anti-gun/OFA event. They had about 45 people spread out on all 4 corners of TO Blvd and Westlake Blvd waving their signs and encouraging people to honk to Stop the Killing and For The Children. An all white crowd, mostly women, mostly middle aged. Polite tho, although they seemed a little wary of us-I was wearing my Front Sight cap and we couldnt be mistaken for supporters. Had some interesting conversations and we were respectful throughout.

My friend summed them up best: They all want something done, but they really have no idea what it is they want done or why.

” They all want something done, but they really have no idea what it is they want done” = the main reason for both the growth of gov’t and regulation.
My “Repeal Party” manifesto: No sending messages. No, there ought not be a law; we should be repealing at all levels. All regulations must be voted on by the elected officials. Create your ideal community on your own damn dime and time with voluntary association

Gosh…I’d probably want to sort that out before I had an event. (I’m sometimes accused of “over-planning” things.) ๐Ÿ˜‰

“What do we want?”
“Someone to do something!!! For teh chiiiildreeeeennnnn!!1idjits”
“When do we want it?”
“NOW!!!111!”
