Poor old Jake McCrann has really been off his meds recently.
Our fearsome millionaire hand-to-hand sniper chemical weapons researcher is still flooding cyberspace with his jabberings. Below the cut are some excerpts from his latest efforts. Enjoy!
God of the 9/11 ‘truther’ conspiracy kooks, Alex Jones, has a love-in with the one and only David Icke.
David Icke, for those who don’t know, is the fella who thinks the earth is secretly being run by a race of space lizards, and that cancer is a kind of “fungus” that could easily be treated if only the Rockefeller corporation would stop the giant cover-up.
They talk a lot about how we have reptile brains.
Along with kooks like Jake McCrann, these are the mouth-breathing freaks who assure us that 9/11 was an “inside job”.
Says it all really.
I’m not religious, but Christmas is a pleasant tradition, wonderful for kids, great for consumer spending and it upsets commies. It’s all good.
Merry Christmas to you all!
Last weekend, I was given this as an early Christmas present:
Glen Moray Single Malt – a ‘budget’ single malt of the Speyside variety.
I must say I do enjoy a dram of this in the evening. It doesn’t have the depth or richness of an aged single malt, nor the lovely peaty qualities of the Islay Bruichladdich. But it does have a very ‘drinkable’ sweet/smooth quality to it that encourages…er….further sampling.
Not bad at all, m’lud.
Some time back, my better half purchased one of these things:
An EasiYo yoghurt maker.
They aren’t lying about the ‘Easi’ part:
That’s it. No power cords, no thermometers, no refrigeration devices, nothing.
You’ll end up with a litre of fresh calcium and acidophilus-laden goodness, for the grand cost of around $3.75 AUD.
OK, so it’s convenient and cheap (the entire boxed product costs only $20-ish), but what’s the actual yoghurt like?
Quite superb actually.
It comes in different permutations: sweetened flavoured yoghurts, drinking yoghurts, special low-fat, skim and greek varieties, plus some special probiotic versions.
I always have some Greek handy for my breakfast smoothies, but by far my favourite to eat as a yoghurt is the probiotic nectarine variety, which might be the most delicious yoghurt I’ve ever eaten.
Great product. Recommended without hesitation, especially at such a low price.
I have never fathomed why people have need for their imaginary gods when the mere physical existence of the universe itself is so utterly awe-inspiring:
Watch it in full screen.
Glorious
This is simply beyond parody:
Copenhagen: The moment of truth
FIDEL CASTRO
December 22, 2009 – 12:09PM[...]
The Danish police are resorting to brutal methods to crush resistance; many protesters are being preventively arrested.
[...]
I asked him who those people were that the Danish police suppressed with such hate, twisting back their arms and beating them repeatedly across the back.
[...]
Even though all of the official delegations are to take part, only “invited guests” were allowed to express their views.
[...]
the world has been able to see the fascist methods used against the people in Copenhagen. The protesters, young people in the main, who have been repressed, have earned the solidarity of the peoples.
Trust the Sydney Morning Herald to publish this shit. Do those idiots have any shame?
From Other People’s Money (1991).
The Scene: a final stockholder meeting to determine the fate of a dying company, New England Wire & Cable.
Two men take the stage in turn to make their case: company chairman Andrew Jorgenson (Gregory Peck) and corporate raider Lawrence Garfield (Danny De Vito).
Jorgensen goes first, with a speech to warm the heart and stir the soul:
The crowd cheers. In most movies, this is the point where the mushy music would begin, the heartless corporate lizards would crawl off in disgrace, and the happy ending would occur.
But then, something remarkable happens. For once, reason triumphs over mawkish Hollywood sentimentality, when Larry the Liquidator takes the microphone and delivers his devastating riposte.
“Amen” indeed
Wasn’t Labor getting elected going to save us all from retarded social conservatism?:
The Federal Government will introduce compulsory internet filtering to block overseas sites which contain criminal content, including child sex abuse and sexual violence.
Communications Minister Stephen Conroy announced the changes today following a controversial trial to filter the internet which was conducted earlier this year.
[...]
In March, an alleged list of about 1,000 sites already banned by the Australian Communications and Media Authority (ACMA) was leaked online, revealing that harmless sites had also been marked as unacceptable.
Nine ISPs originally agreed to take part but iiNet pulled out of the trial in March, saying the filter would not work and was a dead parrot.
Well, just as long as they’re protecting the children.
