As you’ve no doubt noticed from my previous blog posts, I’m no fan at all of the TSA’s new scanner machines and “enhanced pat-down” procedures. I think they’re an affront to the Constitution and a gross violation of many other rights. The public is in an uproar about the whole situation and rightly so. If [...] I got an email about this from Dad. Morale appears to be falling among the Transportation Safety Officers (TSOs) of the TSA and it’s directly connected to the perverted body scanners and “enhanced pat downs” that have been introduced lately. Here’s a couple of bits of the story from boardingarea.com: In the past few weeks [...] This might be funny, but it’s far too true. OK, it’s funny All humor has some truth to it and this is packed full of it. I’ll take humor where and when I can find it, even if it’s dark humor. There’s too much darkness in the world to ignore the funny things in [...] I’ve held off a while on posting about the TSA for a little while to see how it would unfold. If I tried to cover every absurd thing the government does, I’d never sleep. The TSA’s latest offenses against the rights of the American public reeks of tyranny in so many ways I couldn’t list [...] I think I’ve figured out what my problem is. I keep thinking this is America with a First Amendment that actually means something. I keep forgetting that California has already seceded from the Union – they just haven’t made a fuss about it. From Fox 40 in Sacramento, CA: School Makes Boy Take American Flag [...] I got this in an email from Dad a little while back and I have to say that even I find myself floored. I mean intellectually I know California has a bigger problem with bureaucracy than the music industry has with drugs, but this is getting ridiculous. Now, I’m not in any way saying that [...] Borrowed from a Face Book Friend. Gives one cause to ponder, does it not? Railroad tracks. The US standard railroad gauge (distance between the rails) is 4 feet, 8.5 inches. That’s an exceedingly odd number. Why was that gauge used? Because that’s the way they built them in England, and English expatriates designed the US [...] Jeff is on vacation. Me and Kath have the Conn. Hmmmmmmmmmmmm! Saw this this morning. The alleged legal eagle known as elena “no experience” kagan is now a supreme court justice. Wow. Two vile, treasonous bitches on the court. Sorry folks, sonia “wise latina woman?” sotomayor does not get a free pass. At a later [...] I have my obligatory rant about Judge Bolton and AZ SB 1070 over at Old Retired Petty Officer. #mce_temp_url# This link will get you there as well as the one on the blogroll here at PHJ&F. Warning! The Old Retired Petty Officer is given to a certain saltiness of language from time to time. The likes [...] Racism. Works both ways. Today was the last clinical day and I cannot say HOORAY loudly enough to make it clear how glad I am that pediatric clinicals are over. Now, back to the title. I was at a day care again today. Day care in general tries my patience, because there is zero discipline [...] |
