The Lonely Libertarian

I need help

2013-06-19T17:36:00.000-07:00

Shaddup. I'm serious guys, don't make me smack you, I need some tech help.

I haven't been able to comment on wirecutter's blog, keep getting a message saying "You may have disabled javascript." Then when I try to enable javescript, my computer says, "Dudette! He's a caca-doody-head liar, your javascript is totally enabled!" And furthermore, I can comment elsewhere, it's just wirecutter.

So, after his last salvo this afternoon (see here), I am unable to comment my wrath. Are any of y'all having problems or is it just me? And if you have any ideas how to fix this, I'd be eternally grateful. Of course, wirecutter may not be as grateful.

It would appear that the issue is with wirecutter's site, so any help or advice y'all can give him would probably be welcome.

On an unrelated note, what the fuck happened at 7:41 pm?!

Mea Culpa for that last one

Thanks to WiscoDave,

there's something adorably wrong with you.

Texas Flood

2013-06-19T09:48:00.000-07:00

The storms started a little before 6 this morning, and just now started to clear up. We had almost 2 inches in under an hour, total is going to be around 4 inches. We're in a flash flood warning and there's water everywhere. This pic was taken in Clarendon a couple of hours ago, not too far from us.

Oh yeah, good morning y'all!

Better put some of the gals up before the dudes start bitching about the three dudes from last night.

Found this online. Amazing what we've forgotten that our ancestors knew so well. I know a lot of y'all have chickens and thought you'd find this interesting. How to keep eggs fresh for up to 9 months. Without refrigeration.

From WiscoDave, this shit doesn't even phase me anymore. The corruption of America's soul is so deep and pervasive, I'm beginning to think the "let it burn" theory is the only way to cleanse it and start over.

'You gonna own it,' he says in O'Keefe's video footage. 'But if you sell it, you can tell the person that they will have a phone for every month. Every month for the next year they will have a phone. They ain't got to worry about [a] phone. There's no bills.'

There are, in fact, bills, but they are covered by Americans who pay for their own phone service. Both land line and mobile bills in all 50 states and the District of Columbia include a Federal Universal Service Charge, a portion of which subsidizes the program.

That makes the program a handout to both lower-income Americans and the companies that supply the phones. To many on the political right, the enterprise has been twisted beyond any semblance of its original purpose.

Like industry leader TracFone, which has received more than $1.5 billion - including $440 million in 2012 alone - to provide phones to 3.9 million recipients, StandUp and Terracom behave more like corporate titans than good Samaritans.

TracFone is owned by Mexican multibillionaire Carlos Slim Helu.

Stand Up Wireless's parent company, Global Connection Inc. of America, has collected more than $38 million for its subsidized phones. The company itself is owned by Milestone Partners, a venture capital firm based in Radnor, Pennsylvania.

The Oklahoma-based TerraCom Wireless has harvested a total of $168 million for its participation across 23 states. Its self-described 'sister company,' YourTel America, Inc., has reaped nearly another

The Poison Fruit of Liberalism

2013-06-17T17:18:00.001-07:00

The only thing that burns me in this article is the equation of Conservatism to Libertarianism. They are NOT the same. Conservatives, in their way, are just as bad about wanting to remove personal freedoms and control the individual. Both Libs and Cons want to control your actions, choices and the way you think. Your morals from one extreme to the other, both sides want to make those decisions for you. A true Libertarian is about personal choice. Jeffersonian Freedom. I don't care what choices you make as long as you don't try to make me pay for the outcome. Your choice, your responsibility. Other than that, a good read.

"Things are pretty frustrating for conservatives right now. You could get really discouraged. But when the clouds are threatening and the world is dark it is well to remember how battles are won. They are won by the side that gives up last.

That's why Jonah Goldberg's recent column "Freedom: The Unfolding Revolution" is such a ray of sunshine. Liberals think that their government programs are the "wave of the future," writes Jonah, but they are dead wrong. Their politics, whether class politics for the working class or today's identity politics of race and gender, is nothing more than "gussied-up tribalisms, anachronisms made gaudy with the trappings of modernity, like a gibbon in a spacesuit." Adds Jonah:

The only truly new political idea in the last couple thousand years is this libertarian idea, broadly understood. The revolution wrought by John Locke, Edmund Burke, Adam Smith, and the Founding Fathers is the only real revolution going. And it's still unfolding.

How did this libertarian idea get started, two thousand years ago in the Axial Age? It was based on the notion of individualism, the responsible self, people thinking and acting for themselves and forming new associations rather than going along to get along with the tribe."

Seriously?! Banned?!
C'mon, people, are we that prudish?
I must say, however, I've never seen dogs do it missionary before.

Good morning, y'all!

One would think, considering the average American woman is a size 14, that there would be a plethora of curvy babe pics to post. One would think. However, that's not the case. I have to dig through the bone pile to find one or two tender morsels for your consideration and pleasure. You're welcome.

No Good Deed goes unpunished

2013-06-16T12:11:00.001-07:00

An 82-year-old man who has been giving free haircuts to homeless men for 25 years is harassed by local authorities. Seriously, I don't know why anyone would go out of their way to do a good deed, to be charitable to the less fortunate, when clearly that's the government's role. This shit needs to end and soon. We've gone from a country of individuals who take care of business as we see fit, to a country of dependents who get slapped down if we try to do anything on our own.

6 Primitive traps and snares for catching dinner

I'm about lost as a hunter, I'm more of a gatherer and planter. But there needs to be meat on the table, and here's some traps and snares that can help. I actually see a couple of these being adapted for perimeter security.
