OutPost Editor thought to be AWOL
I wondered what we ordinary folks should be thinking after the infamous shooting mass murder in Tucson a couple of weeks ago, so naturally I checked out our elite betters in the Gazette and David Crisp’s Billings Blog. Not much there, except for the usual visiting columnar suspects, which are not really aimed—oops, sorry—at us [… Read More]
Hu’s On First?
The old Abbott and Costello routine, Who’s on First, was brought to mind when seeing pictures like these and listening to the monologues of both. Why does Pres. Obama listen to the Paramount Leader of the People’s Republic of China as if he understood him? Do we have to wait for Saturday Night Live to [… Read More]
From the highways of Texas
I got this from my brother by the usual attachment to an email. He claims it is from Texas. Who started this? Us or them? The country people, the commoners v. the Ruling Class? Obviously we don’t much like each other. I don’t think it would have made much difference if we had picked Hillary, [… Read More]
It’s About Time
There is no reason to be surprised at a highway being named after our Community-Organizer-in-Chief. I mean, have you forgotten about the Nobel Prize that he won while running for his present job? That was for Peace. This one may be for Justice. Or is there a Prize for Bamboozling? If there is, then I [… Read More]
Going Rogue
2 December 2009 This was a fun book to read. Especially if, like me, you were alive and paying attention to the peculiar presidential political melee during the summer and fall of 2008. There were a lot of dogs that didn’t bark and thus the whole thing was more than a little puzzling. This book [… Read More]
Fun In Our Capitol
I can’t resist clever signs, on bumper stickers or in demonstrations like this one in Washington DC yesterday September 12th. It’s hard to believe ordinary people could pull this off. They must have had some help from their Leftist friends or the media, sorry for the redundancy there. There is an excellent series of pictures [… Read More]
The Return of Dr Muskett
I was getting worried when I hadn’t heard for what seemed like months from my favorite cardiac turned plastic surgeon, Billings’ own Dr Alan Muskett. I know I’ve blogged about him in the past but I couldn’t find the entries, though I did find in back pages of the Gazette a number of other good [… Read More]
Political Speech on Broadwater
I guess you could buy a lot of bath tubs cheap here. And maybe a lot of new and used junk and antiques too. Just to make sure the proprietor of this place has posted some nice notes on his fence, short and to the point. Good for him or her as the case may [… Read More]
Do We Still Call This Black Humor?
What will be the average age of those who understand or not the above cartoon? Who remembers Dinah Shore? See the USA in your Chevrolet. Black humor? Dark humor? I think gallows humor might be better but then there are probably many who would not know what a gallows was for.
What’s Going On at St Thomas’ Playing Fields and Dog Run?
Some new development going on here? Or what? Does this sign apply to the football and other nearby fields? Enquiring minds want to know.
