Harry Reid Gets a Pass.. Duh…

By jen

No one is surprised by this, but I always enjoy the left and their willingness to forgive their own people for transgressions.  No one loves a sinner more than the left; unless that sinner is a Republican of course.  The left loves their philanderers, racists, and felons.  Yes they do!  I never cease to be amazed with the double standard.  Yeah I am sure it exists on both side, but us conservatives are suppose to be narrow minded and evil.  The Left is suppose to be enlightened and forever sensitive to the injustices of the world.  Hell,they are so enlightened they elected a man based pretty much entirely on the fact he was black.  I say this because there is simply nothing in his resume to suggest he is presidential material.  We have hashed that fact over until the horse is long dead.

Harry Reid and his “negro dialect” comment is just another in a long line of racially derogatory comments from the left over the last few years.  We do not have to look past his Vice President in February of 2007:

“I mean, you got the first mainstream African-American who is articulate and bright and clean and a nice-looking guy,” he said. “I mean, that’s a storybook, man.”

Yeah, Joe… I cannot think of another mainstream African-American male who is smart, clean, and speaks well.  But not only did he get forgiven and barely called on the commentary, he was honored (if you want to call it that) with the Vice Presidency.

Robert Byrd former KKK Exalted Cyclops and Kleagal who has stood against just about anything related to racial equality that has come before the Senate in his career.  He is old though, remember?  He deserves some slack.  Right?  Well as recently as 2001, part of the enlightened age, he repeatedly used the reference “white n*ggers” on Fox News Sunday.  But really, that doesn’t count.  Besides he was on Fox News, I am sure they spiked his water bottle with evil conservative cooties or something.

The rush to defend Reid’s remarks by prominent Black Americans is fucking absurd.  The President accepted his apology, bfd.  Like he had a choice on that.  If he had said, “Fuck you, Harry.”  He would just be a bitter black man. All I know is any prominent conservative committing the same “error in judgment” they would be crucified in the media and the combined efforts of the Left would do everything possible to see their political careers over.

Saddest thing about all this?  You do not even have to point it out anymore, everyone knows how pathetic it is.  No one is surprised when a prominent Democrat spews some racial slur and no one is surprised with the prominent blacks in their ranks rush to defend them.  Just simply pathetic.

Yeah, Newark Airport Blows…

By jen

Duh… I hate Newark Airport with a passion I know for few things.  It is a shithole.  Now we have this… “Asshat ducks security to play tonsil hockey with his Girlfirend”

When a man ducked past security at Newark Liberty International Airport last Sunday to kiss his girlfriend goodbye, the breach in security shut down one of the country’s busiest airports, delayed flights through Monday and prompted an intensive manhunt from New Jersey detectives that ended on Friday evening on a street in Piscataway, N.J.

He is lucky I wasn’t at Newark that day I would have beat him to death for keeping me in that god forsaken shithole for one moment longer than necessary.

Another failure in the Airport security saga we live in.  Surprise!  Duh.  I was going through Newark once with a friend on the way to a vendor convention.  We were carrying on two bags full of metal (gold chain etc)  We were told we needed our bags searched and sent to a table to wait.  Watched they two bitches sit and shoot the shit instead of working and our flight was being called to board.  I said, “Ma’am that is our flight they are calling.  Can you check our bags so we can make the flight?”  She looks at me like I am insane and says, “Go ahead, you are fine.”  My hand to God!  Trust me, 9/11 didn’t surprise me, hell nothing that happens at Newark or any other Airport surprises me.

On Saturday, some of Mr. Jiang’s roommates described him as a “romantic” now trying to secure a lawyer after the dizzying turn of events.

I think he should be described as terminally stupid and immediately have a vasectomy and an anal probing with a hedgehog.  Did I mention I hate being delayed at Newark?

The senator said the trouble the security breach caused far outweighed the punishment: 1,600 people stuck in the airport for six hours; flights delayed and an “incalculable” loss of money. And then for five days after the incident, New Jersey law enforcement officials searched exhaustively for the man caught on a grainy surveillance video, one which Sen. Lautenberg had released on Thursday.

I say hang him at High Noon in the middle of the main terminal!  Fucking six hours!  ugh.

“He loves her very much,” Mr. Huang said on Saturday, outside the two-story house Mr. Jiang shares with five roommates. Mr. Huang added that his friend “just wanted to say goodbye to his girlfriend, so it was a very emotional moment. I don’t think he realized what he’s doing.”

Fucking pussy.  Now he can carry on his love affair from a jail cell with his new ‘boyfriend” Bubba.

How did he do it?

The video showed that Mr. Jiang was able to step past security last Sunday when a guard, identified by a law enforcement official as Ruben Hernandez, left his post. The guard has been on administrative leave since Tuesday, and he faces disciplinary action, according to the Transportation Security Administration.


Without Mr. Hernandez watching, Mr. Jiang was able to slip into an area of people who had already cleared security and embraced a woman in a puffy coat and kissed her. When security officials were alerted that someone had breached a secure area, they took steps to lock down the terminal.

Oh I sure Mr. Hernandez is not popular right now.  Hell if he isn’t careful Janet Nappypants might just come down and scare him with her hairdo and fashion sense.  I have to fly to DC in a few weeks and this is just another reason I a never flying through Newark again.

Back to Mr. Huang.. the poor misunderstood casanova.

“I think this man is very romantic,” Mr. Riu said.


Mr. Jiang, who comes from the Jiangxi province of China, said Mr. Huang, is a postdoctoral fellow at the Center for Advanced Biotechnology and Medicine, according to the Rutgers University Web site. He intended to find a job in Los Angeles after graduation so he could be with his girlfriend, Mr. Huang said.

He isn’t just a romantic folks… this is the act of a postdoctoral advance biomed tech and medicine guy aka geek.  It is probably the only piece of ass he will ever have a chance at and he was overcome with the lure of the panties.  Ugh.  I will say what I say on many occasions to men who are stupid about women… “no piece of ass is worth that…”

“I just hope this doesn’t affect his future career path.”

They hope it doesn’t affect his future career? With this on his resume I am sure he can qualify to lead a TSA team or at the very least run for President of the United State.  I fucking hate people.

Discovery of The Day…

By jen

I just watched the A-Team trailer:

Approximately 55 seconds into this is proof of the mad hip thingie Mr. Cooper possesses.  In fact the split second glimpse is probably enough to make me go see the movie because where there is a split second there must be more!!!  He dethrones previous best hip thingie King David Beckham.

A girl can never have too much hip thingie.  Like guys can never get enough tits.

I watched the trailer and while I will reserve judgement on Liam as Hannibal, I will did note the guy playing Murdoch looks way too much like Owen Wilson.  So much like Owen Wilson that I think the casting guys probably reallllly wanting Owen Wilson.  He looks enough like him and in the airplane portion of the clip he even has the same vocal inflections as Owen Wilson a la Armageddon.

None of that however matters!  Cooper has mad hip thingie.  I need to start a hip thingie blog.

BCS Championship, Project Schedules, Txting…Random Shit

By jen

So, I am watching UT play because well this is Texas and my girl at work is a UT grad and if I do not watch I will be in the doghouse and she is in control of my life essentially so I am watching.  It is mitigating the agony of the fact I am building a project schedule at the same time.   In between admiring boys way too young for me, but still hot enough to say oooo over, and entering tasks in a schedule i am getting txts from the above mentioned Jen Keeper every 30 seconds.

We have discussed how Josh Groban shouldn’t sing the anthem they should have had a country singer like Martina McBride do it.  We have discussed that even though I like red better than burnt orange I am required to cheer for UT or she will no longer uphold her duties as Jen Keeper.    I commented that football butts are the best.  Then we started a list…

Football butts
Baseball arms
Tennis Thighs
and of course…
Swimmer’s HIP THINGIE!

Let me know if you have any additions….

On to more stupidity…

Cell phones are getting to be sad.  Really sad.  Their inferiority complex over iPhone is just fucking ridiculous.  I do not give a rat’s red ass about Google android or whatever the fuck it is.  It is not an iPhone.  Worse?  That stupid commercial with the “projector” phone.  Really?  Who the hell is gonna use that?  I mean wtf are you going to watch for the 2.5 minutes it will probably take to run the battery down?  You want to give my cell phone a good function?  Make it do my fucking laundry.

Back to the BCS… McCoy had five seconds of a game and got hurt? Well fuck… walk it off and get back in the fucking game.  Just sayin’.

On to more random shit… Smart cars.  Look I get that there are pussies in the world who buy cars like this.  I just thought they were either all women or gay.  Was behind one on the expressway today… not a good thing… passed the wind-up toy and looked at the driver.  Big giant guy… oy.  Here is the rule:  If you are a male driving a SmartCar you immediately have your “man card” revoked.  You might as well start wearing a tutu.  In Texas a man in a SmartCar is just asking for a beatdown.

I have a fire!  I have been in my condo for two years and had two fires over that time in my lovely fireplace.  I have had 5 fires since Christmas!  W00t!

For the record, I can tackle better than these boys are doing right now… in my stilettos.  Just sayin’  Oooo a sack… see they heard me! Oh shit… nevermind… I keep getting texts that say, “pinche freshman!”  “WTF?”  “I will need spiked coffee to survive the office full of Aggies tomorrow!”  Pobrecita…

You know what this football game needs?  Vince Young, but since that isn’t an option I guess I will eat a jolly rancher.

I have been looking at the news and it is all rather stupid.  Janet Oogypants wants to scan us all and see america naked.  Bad idea for many reason.  beyond the obvious fact it is probably totally not reliable, wtf is gonna happen if some TSA worker sees something?  9 out of 10 TSA workers I see at security are 45+ overweight women sitting on a stool or some old guy with bad knees walking you through the metal detector.  Wtf are they gonna do?

Well this game blows… I am pondering watching a movie now.  Hmmm

Ok… have to finish this damn schedule… will write something that matters tomorrow.

Israelification: Great Idea, thus it Will Never Happen.

By jen

I have been spouting off since 9/11 about why the fuck are we creating another piece of shit government agency to deal with Airport Security?  Why are we not just writing the Israelis a nice big fat check and a open ended government contract to handle all our airport security?  Hubby sent me an article the other day that definitely makes the case for it.  Great stuff…

A couple of my favorite points the author makes, and many are made…

Five security layers down: you now finally arrive at the only one which Ben Gurion airport shares with Pearson – the body and hand-luggage check.


“But here it is done completely, absolutely 180 degrees differently than it is done in North America,” Sela said.


“First, it’s fast – there’s almost no line. That’s because they’re not looking for liquids, they’re not looking at your shoes. They’re not looking for everything they look for in North America. They just look at you,” said Sela. “Even today with the heightened security in North America, they will check your items to death. But they will never look at you, at how you behave. They will never look into your eyes … and that’s how you figure out the bad guys from the good guys.”

Of course they don’t look anyone in the eyes! This is America and that requires a fucking spine as a populous.  We have spent two generations weeding these horrible habits out of our citizens.  Do not make eye contact.  There is a fucking major corporation, which will remain nameless, who actually has a policy on how much eye contact is acceptable before it is “threatening”.  That number is less than five seconds.  Are you fucking kidding me?

“Do you know why Israelis are so calm? We have brutal terror attacks on our civilians and still, life in Israel is pretty good. The reason is that people trust their defence forces, their police, their response teams and the security agencies. They know they’re doing a good job. You can’t say the same thing about Americans and Canadians. They don’t trust anybody,” Sela said. “But they say, `So far, so good.’ Then if something happens, all hell breaks loose and you’ve spent eight hours in an airport. Which is ridiculous. Not justifiable.”

It is fucking sticking your head in the sand.  That is what this country has become of late.  How do I know this?  Because countries like Afghanistan and Yemen etc still fucking exist!  They haven’t be wiped off the map on sheer fucking principle for fucking with our way of life.  Prince Fuknut isn’t the problem so much as the culmination of the pussification of America.  He cannot even say the word terrorist.  He is so fucking politically correct and so fucking dickless that he cannot conceive of there being a scenario he cannot buy/spend his way out of.

We do not have a terrorist problem in this country, people!  We have a Healthcare crisis.  Yes yes we do.  Really, I mean it.  That is the central crisis we face.  Yes yes it is… move along now.. nothing happening here… nothing happening in Detroit… oh no no no that wasn’t a terrorist attack! It was an alleged attempted possible thingie to maybe on an off chance render a large number of Americans permanently unable to breathe on a day that misguided and uneducated masses celebrate the birth of the alleged son of some “divine” being.

It is Monday and I am Amused.

By jen

Let’s start off with the amusing stuff.

Lileks does some of the best tweets…

I have to do a video tomorrow on the fact that it’s cold. Next: a guide for coping with the strange inky blackness that follows “day.”

I was reading Geek Soapbox earlier and this made me giggle: Study Finds If You Have an iPhone You’re Nuts! I enjoyed the entire article but the I laughed aloud at this…

I own and adore desperately my iPhone.  Without it, I feel uncertain and anxious, as if a very part of me has been unplugged from life and I struggle to maintain focus and balance. It’s utterly ridiculous, but I guess I’m one of the people Strand Consulting is referring to when it declares that iPhone users are delusional.

OMG!  I am like a fucking junkie three hours past needing a fix when I do not have my iPhone in my hand.  It is fucking ridiculous.  It is so bad that I must actually get a “disturbed and distraught” look on my face when I am separated from my iPhone because, Sarah aka Jen’s Keeper at work seems to know what is wrong and says, “You do not have your phone, do you?”

At one point about a month ago we were all down at corporate working on a pretty intense deadline and had walked to the break room to get coffee etc.  When we returned to the office we all were piled into and working on a freakin’ briefing I suddenly realized i didn’t have my phone.  I was looking everywhere while a coworker was trying to tell me something important.  Sarah says, “You fucking cannot find your phone; just do the work I will find it!”  she starts walking and dialing the phone, listening for my freakin’ Beyonce All the Single Ladies ring-tone.  She returns like a huntress from a safari with big game to prove her might and yes… she was mighty in my eyes!

It is so pathetic that not only can I not imagine my life without my iPhone I cannot remember life BiP (Before iPhone)!   How did I function?  How did I check my mail 900 times a day?  How did I find a Starbucks while driving and desperate for coffee?  What is 411 for?  I cannot remember!  I just open Safari and google what I want and the zip code and voila!  There is the results and a number i can click and have my wonderful gadget ask me, “Call number?”  Yes yes yes, I say!

All you Apple haters out there can bite my ass and revel in the inferiority of your Windows Mobile 6 crap.  Google android?  Whatevah!  iPhone changed my life! Not sure if it is a curse or a blessing but I am so fucking happy about it, who cares?

Foodgasm: The Birthday Edition

By jen

I am happy to say Wildfish Seafood Grill is still one of my two favorite restaurants on the planet.  Today I can say that their dessert officially trumps my previous favorite dessert EVAH at Filomena’s in Georgetown, VA.  I will always love Filomena for a million reasons but their dessert has been dethroned.  But I am getting ahead of myself.

The Meal:

My drink: “Cosmo, Vince… make it sweet.”

IMG_0357

Appetizer: Ahi Tartare which was OUT OF THIS WORLD sorry I didn’t get a picture before the waiter mixed it up and cut up the citrus.  That is raw ahi which was sitting on a bed of diced mango.  He cut up the avocado, blood oranges, and mixed it.  It has some sort of slightly spicy chile vinegrette.  God love a good piece of sashimi grade fish.

IMG_0359

and of course… the Warm Wedge of Saint Andres cheese. The unequaled KING OF ALL CHEESE…

IMG_0358

Yes that is the freakin butter/fat/oil whatever that comes off the triple cream Saint Andres when it is heated.  They put some sort of herbs or something on it.  Dunno what… do not care… it is outstanding.

Entree for me was the Jonah Crab stuff tiger prawns (4).  I ate one before i took the picture, sorry.  I was hungry and feeling the cosmo.  Hubby had the Ahi steak with wasabi mashed potatoes.  The picture of that dish was super blurry but you can see part of if in the picture of the Hollandais and Asparagus.

IMG_0385

IMG_0384

Now… for the real reason we are at any restaurant and the aforementioned Dessert to End All Desserts…  For my birthday I got the Godiva Chocolate lava cake which they spiffied up for me, yay Wildfish!  That said, my husband ordered the Pineapple Upside Down Cake.

IMG_0388

It’s on FIRE!

IMG_0386

This is a scoop of Butter Pecan Ice Cream, individual pineapple upside down cake, fresh whipped cream with a caramel sauce… but wait!  They then light a boat of 151 and pour it over the top!  Ahhhhhhh.  Once the inferno is done further caramelizing the sugars what is left is a cake which according to the waiter, Vince… the pastry guy pours into ramekins that have clarified butter poured in the bottom before it is baked so when it is in the over it bubbles up and over coating everything in this amazing crunchy browned sugar goodness.  I can only say, Holy Fucking Shit!  It was a certified FOODgasm.

IMG_0387

My lovely chocolate cake with my little birthday message was also divine.  I like richer chocolate desserts so this was mmm good. They only thing it needed was walnuts.

IMG_0390

Yeah… we are going to hell…

I was wanting to take a picture at the table but if you haven’t been to Wildfish before you should know it is the darkest fucking place ever.  I didn’t have enough light to take a pic with my phone because the iPhone blows without a flash.  So i stood in the lady’s lounge area of the restroom and took a picture of me in that somewhat better, but not much light at the sink!  39 was much better the third time around!  My nose looks huge in this picture, but who cares?  :)

Happy Birthday To Me! Shoes!

By jen

I received a great coffee mug from my favorite co-worker aka Jen’s Keeper, Sarah.  It says, “My Idea of a Happy Birthday is shopping for New Shoes while WEARING New Shoes”  it is fabulous.  In that spirit I did visit DSW this morning and woot!  I was feeling my inner dominatrix this morning I guess.  I should have chosen that as a career.  I would be fucking making money money money.  In a way that is what I do here, no?  Maybe I should start soliciting people who want to be abused and do it on the blog?  Charge for it?  OMG i need a business manager!  Think of all the shoes I could buy!!
