Unbelievable Magic Illusion Thingie
Look at the following image.Look in particular at squares A and B. A appears to be dark grey, B appears to be white or whitish. But in fact, they are the same exact color.Don’ t believe it? Me neither! Or at least, I didn’t until I went ahead and deleted most everything that is not A or B from this picture. When you do that, you get this: Continue reading Unbelievable Magic Illusion Thingie

Politicians acting badly (yawn)
Thank you Joshua Zelinsky for pointing out my error regarding the Florida Democratic Party. Yes, SuperKufr, you may not like the sound of the word “Punish” but as a Democrat (Active, Matt) I do.Throw the slob into the gravel pit. Then let the Floridians vote. Oh, and Hillary Campaign Guy? Kiss my ass. If Clinton wins, will you have a job in the White House?(Sorry, I’m a little pissed. I took someone’s word for this.)
Happy Birthday Surveyor One
McCain … do you trust him? I don’t.

Video of Alien Blinking Into Window To Be Released
A video that purportedly shows a living, breathing space alien will be shown to the news media Friday in Denver.”It shows an extraterrestrial’s head popping up outside of a window at night, looking in the window, that’s visible through an infrared camera,” he said. The alien is about 4 feet tall and can be seen blinking, Peckman said earlier this month.An instructor at the Colorado Film School in Denver scrutinized the video “very carefully” and determined it was authentic, Peckman said.source
I’m confused, but I think we are going to get to see the Alien this coming Friday. Unless, of course, other aliens intervene to make that not happen.
Hysterical Women and South LA Looters
Or should I say “Hysterical Woman OR South LA Looters”I spotted a video on Ed Brayton’s site (Hillary Supporter Comes Unhinged showing a woman at the recent Rules Committee meeting being very hysterical about the outcome of that meeting. The money quote from her tirade is
.throwing the election away…for what — an inadequate black male who would not have been running had it not been a white woman that was running for president.
(Video is below)Now, does anyone want to tell me what is wrong in this picture? Continue reading Hysterical Women and South LA Looters

Is the press constructing Clinton’s Campaign as the arch typical Hysterical Woman?
Or, is the Clinton Campaign painting that picture as a threat?Are women being pushed out of the Democratic Party by latent sexism bubbling to the surface everywhere? Continue reading Is the press constructing Clinton’s Campaign as the arch typical Hysterical Woman?
Democrats will be Democrats
The Party’s rules committee has met, deliberated, and decided to seat Florida and Michigan, but with only half a vote each. This is an odd compromise that serves to preserve and ruin democracy at the same time. it is a nineteenth century compromise that may be viewed as an anti-Clinton move, but in the end may serve to save Clinton face. In the short term Obama may gain (indirectly) but in the longer term there will be a cost for him.And, the Democratic Party leadership of Florida and Michigan need to be ashamed of themselves. They have served their citizens very, very poorly. Continue reading Democrats will be Democrats
