Best of The Tick

In honor of The Tick being on Toon Disney at 11pm, starting Monday, June 13, I bring you some of The Ticks best quotes “And so, may evil beware and may good dress warmly and eat lots of fresh vegetables.” “Life is a big wild crazy tossed salad, but you don’t eat it, no sir! […]

Sorta Blogless Sunday Pinup

Flag Day is Tuesday, 6/14. It was first celebrated in 1877, which was the 100th Anniversary of our Flag, hence the cutie pie with the 37 Star Flag. The Pledge of Allegience was first said in 1892, the 400th Anniversary of Columbus discovering America. Woodrow Wilson established Flag Day as a national celebration in 1916. […]

Congratulations all around!!!

A big shout out to Firewolf at Firewolf’s Blog and Jody at Steal the Bandwagon on hitting 6 months of blogging. Great going, folks! (h/t to Janette, though I would have seen them sooner or later.) For Firewolf: Figured we could share.   For Jody. No explanation needed :)

American Flag Bidness

Just a little note. The American Flag League has grown quite a bit since I first started it back in January. As of today, the AFL has 103 members, excluding the AFL site address. Thank you everybody!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

One for the lovely ladies

On this day in 1714, the pirate Anne Bonny beat the snot out of a young man who was making unwanted sexual advances so badly that he was stuck in bed for weeks.

More Muslim Desecration

But, see, once again, it is Muslim’s who are doing this, as Cao tells it: Shah showed the undercover agent how he had fashioned his prayer beads into a weapon that could be used to strangle a person. Now, Shah is one of the Muslims who was arrested in New York for joining Al Queda, […]

9/11 Spin Control

How many times will this be quoted by the Bush haters? In the weeks and months before Sept. 11, 2001, the FBI had some clues, but didn’t see them. It had a lead from one of its own agents, but didn’t follow it. That’s a funny start to the AP story, isn’t it? Would I […]

I freaking give up

OK, I have spent hours searching for a good map of the interior of the US Capital Building. The best, and only, ones I could find were really worthless, since they were so tiny. It is really starting to not only tick me off, but amaze me, that I cannot find one. So, I am […]
