    1. YAY!!!
      I was totally oblivious today.
      Wasn’t even watching the clock.
      *channeling my inner ex-OS2

    1. Congrats to Willy. I roll away for mere minutes to write an anti-Soros screed, and look what happens…

      1. As long as the open thread is here, I did spend about 30 minutes on the phone yesterday with the FBI in DC. I had made two calls over the last two months to the NM office regarding my pos brother, David “Doc” Shrum. At least the guy in DC actually took down the information I was giving me and put me on hold a couple of times for a few minutes, I hope he was checking out my information? The strange thing is, he said they will not return calls and give me any kind of status on the investigation into all of his fraud bullshit! What does it take to get anyone to take action and arrest this sack of shit!

  1. Why did mine get “Your comment is awaiting moderation.”?

    This is a FAKE NEWS SITE!!!!!

    🙂

      1. I can’t believe that you’re a Terrorologistphobe!!!

        I’m calling for a boycott of this site until I come in first!!

        I’m taking this to a higher power, where’s Mrs Terrorologist.

        Yeah you’re in trouble now Mr So Called John.

        You haven’t heard the last of this!!

        Well, maybe you have, I’m late for my early afternoon nap, not to be confused with my late morning nap.

        Love ya all.

    1. “fore”? Fore? This ain’t no damned golf game, this is dead serious blogging. We have major things to discuss, like recipes, pilots who don’t think that fuel is one of the 3 keys to ignition, and picking on stupid people, serious stuff. Fore, p’ffffft.

    1. Casey Kasem, in-country Korean War veteran disc jockey on Armed Forces Radio.

      Finally was buried six months after his passing in 2014 due to family members squabbling over who was going to get the biggest cut out of his net worth of 80 million dollars. So sad.

      RIP to him. Always enjoyed listening to American Top40 each weekend on AFRTS while overseas.

      1. Give away / donate / transfer the bulk of your estate while alive.

        Boobytrap the will “and anyone who bitches about their share, or litigates, gets ZERO”

        1. Nobody fights over an estate that has no money. Speaking of having no money, I work for a “proud woman owned business” that was formerly located in Bethesda MD. The Vice President of the company has his 61st birthday coming up in mid March, and I have no idea what to get him. I was thinking of getting him a watch, but then I realized that it is not as if he has to be anywhere at a specific time to attend a business meeting. Maybe a gift certificate to a local Goodwill store. I hear that they have real bargains there; I know a guy that purchased a few suits there for $5 each.

    1. Bitches in Ditches gettin’ Stitches cuz they’re Snitches.

      Gettin’ down with my bad self.

      Yeah.

  2. This just in: per the State Bar of California, former lawyer Daniel A. Bernath IS STILL DISBARRED!

    If anyone is interested, the reason why may be found here.

    Yo, Danni-boi:

    Too bad, so sad
    Sucks to be you
    Received your due
    Court said, “Screw You . . .
    . . . and the horse you rode in on.”

    (Warning: image at last link may be NSFW/around prudes, clergy, or children.)

    1. This just in: per the laws of gravity, Daniel Bernath is an idiot.

      What’s the difference between Daniel Bernath and a vulture?

      A vulture can fly more than 200 yards.

  3. Hey guys, what’s with this (expletive deleted) auto-play audio with no way to turn it off? This kind of thing drives me up the wall!

  4. And I don’t care. I was heavily involved in putting together an article that will give you something real and more to bitch about. How much do you want to read since I’m not adding pictures to it, just linkie thingies?

      1. Isn’t it mostly the weekends now when Comissar Poodle the Piuperdink shows up to make a pest of himself?

        I’m saving my ‘thingy’ article for the right moment. I’m under the impression that he saves himself for the weekends.

        1. I’m just gonna enjoy the absence of him until the next time he shows up to screech for any attention he can get.

    1. I look forward to reading anything you put up on here, always a good story, but I do like pictures?

  5. The caption under the picture should have read:

    “A man walks with camels across the Hameem desert, some 105 miles west of Abu Dhabi in that United Arab Emirates on February 24, 2017,… stops, puts his hand up to his forehead, looks around, and says to his camel….”Where the fuque are we?!””

    1. Thus giving birth to the naming of the wellpknown and popular Fuqawi tribe of Abu Dhabi.

  6. There’s a fine line between a numerator and a denominator.

    Only a fraction of people will find this funny.

    The remainder will be divided on the total amount of humorous content.

      1. Is that like saying there are only 10 kinds o people in the world – those who understand binary and those who do not?

        And everyone knows the correct answer is 42.

          1. 78.461948263858361537483625184957255867253388442&3618838488496835264963 if you figure it with a Pentium chip!

  7. Hate to be serious, but could use some help. Two young teens were killed recently near Delphi, IN while hiking a nature trail. 14-year-old Libby German obviously saw that something bad was about to happen, and had the clarity, courage, and composure to not only activate the video feature on her phone, but to hide it after getting some video, and it recorded all that happened to her and her 13-year-old friend Abby Williams. The police and FBI are trying to get the photo and a short loop of audio (all they plan to release for now) hoping someone, somewhere, will be able to identify either. They want it out nationwide, as this may be someone not from the area. Photo and link to the audio at http://www.laughingwolf.net/2017/02/23/do-you-know-this-man-or-voice/ If you can, help get both out. The bastard(s) need to be caught.

  8. All joking aside, I have a story to tell you all.
    I’m sorry about being a bit long winded on this.

    I’m keeping names, places, etc., generic because I’m waiting to see how this plays out.

    On Monday, I called one of my buddies (retired from Army Reserves but also served active duty Navy prior to his reserve time) just to see what was happening in his world. He lives about 30 minutes from me. He is also the sec/treasurer for his local small town AMVETS chapter. We BS’ed for a bit & he said he had someone at his door. We hung up and then about an hour later he called back. The first thing out of his face was….”I just had the guts kicked out of me”.

    A bit of background. My buddy introduced me to his Chapter’s present Commander a few years back at this person’s bar/restaurant, and told me this guy was a former Navy SEAL. I never met a SEAL before, so I was pretty impressed. This guy is a loud, boisterous type person and told me he was also a Viet vet.

    I had on occasion since, visited this place a number of times with my buddy & his wife for a meal.

    This guy was impressive. He did a lot of good things for area vets, gave free 1 year AMVET memberships to newly joined folk, said the Lord’s Prayer at a couple of gatherings before the meal, and seemed to be a decent guy. Back in last year July, he just received two awards from the State AMVET’s and also and was elected State Pro Marshal.

    Back to my buddy.

    Turns out that that it was the new incoming Commander and said that someone had anonymously sent in info that this guy wasn’t who he said he was. Turns out he was never a Navy SEAL, although he had three years active duty in the Navy for three years and left as an E-3.

    Apparently this info was verified by this incoming commander & the State AMVET’s. According to my buddy, so far he has been stripped of the awards & position he received last year and the local chapter was having an emergency meeting on Thursday to confront this individual. I haven’t contacted my buddy yet, but will later today to see what happened.

    I did some internet research on this person and found his Facebook page. He has a pic posted of him wearing the Navy Dress Blues (?) where he is wearing Chief Petty Officer rank, and five longevity stripes while holding a Navy white dress hat. He’s also wearing black jogging shoes, has no awards pinned on, no nameplate,wrinkled uniform, raggedy ass beard & hair; just an all around douche looking picture. He is listed in our state Circuit Court on-line website as being three times DUI, a couple of restraining orders, and quite a few (small & large) fillings from creditors.

    Talk about the rancid cherry on top a shit sundae!

    My buddy is really hurting from all of this. He valued this guys friendship, considered him a military brother, trusted him only to be shit on.

    I’m waiting to hear what my buddy has to say as to what happened at last nights meeting before I post any more detailed information. At that time, I will contact you Jonn, to find out what info you may need to run a records check on him and also am considering contacting Senior Chief Shipley about him.

    If what the AMVETS have found out is true, this guy needs to be burned!

    Again, I’m sorry about the long read/rant, but I needed to get this out.

    He pissed me off when he did what he did to my buddy and all legitimate vets.

    1. Sorry about misspellings, sentence structure,and repeated stuff…..I’m just pissed and ranted without proofing.

        1. “This guy is a loud, boisterous type person and told me he was also a Viet vet.” Those are the type that raise my radar. I’ve found that those who have been there and done that don’t need to attempt to impress others. He picked up enough of the mannerism, lingo, etc. to pass himself off as a SEAL, Vietnam veteran and CPO.
          Toad

          1. Ditto that, I grew up near a Military Installation in the seventies and eighties and having met and talked to WWI, WWII, Korea and Vietnam Vets I can say from personal experience that the ones who have been there and done the most talk about it the least.

          2. HMC, I probably somewhat overlooked all of that because he I felt he was doing good things for vets.

            Course this was before I was “corrupted” by TAH since I became a part of it a little over a year ago. 😉

            I have to somewhat admit, my spidey sense did go off at times, but I guess I choose to ignore it because of my buddy’s friendship with this guy.

            No easy way to say to a friend that this guy may be bullshitting him. That’s on me, and in introspect, I should have said something.

      1. Sky, I totally understand your anger, I had to experience the same thing, except it was learning the truth about my own brother and the pain he caused my father, a real WWII hero and devoted his life to the VFW! That is why I will not rest until this shit stain is back in prison where he belongs! Eat shit and die, David “Doc” Shrum!

        1. Willy, I guess never knew, considered, or even cared much before about the effects of stolen valor before I found this site. It just wasn’t really in my thought process.

          Now after I have seen & read about all of the damage it causes emotionally/monetarily, it ticks me off to no end.

    2. Did the poser physically assault your friend? If so, why hasn’t he been arrested?

      And yes, contact Don Shipley ASAP. He’s THE man for the SEAL verification and I would think that Jonn et al have enough on their plate right now.

  9. I’ve read a few articles lately talking about Chelsea Clinton being groomed to run for Congress. JUST WHEN we thought we’d seen the last of the Clintons, here they come back like a bad case of Herpes!

    1. The Clintons: The gift that keeps on giving. Or a terminal illness with no known cure. I’ve read the stanky liberals are opposed to anything Clinton and are particularly opposed to Chelsea, whose only ‘qualification’ seems to be that she is a Clinton.

    2. Zero qualifications and a “I’m a princess” attitude, from all I’ve read. I say bring it- she can be a two time loser too, just like dear old mom.

    3. Well, if the ‘stanky liberals’ are opposed to her, that is one point in their favor. They’ll do more to shoot her down than anyone else.

      1. People talked about “Clinton Fatigue” to describe people’s attitudes about them in 2008, I’m sure it’s up to “Clinton Exhaustion” by now!

    4. Maybe Webb Hubbell’s daughter, Chelsea, can run with, like, ya know, um, uh, like, um, Caroline Kennedy. Then the dems will have two females utterly unqualified for anything on one ticket.

      1. I’ve also heard rumor that Chelsea Clinton is a “Foster Child”, knowhutimean?

    5. I often wonder why the Clinton’s couldn’t afford to give that homely child braces? She could eat a ear of corn through a picket fence.

  10. Keeping the name of Ol “Stretched” up in lights, here is the latest on him:
    Kyle Christopher Barwan is one pitiful, useless dope. He has brought all this on himself. There are 4 charges now, and likely more to come, and from a different county, so that no matter the outcome of these charges, he will be handed over to the next county, with the possibility of Federal charges as well.

    1. Bubba & Thor gots ’em one more and it looks like they’ll have him for a while, nice work, Frankie!

    2. So, he will be passed around from one county jail to the next? Much like how he is being passed around the Polk County Correctional Facility by the inmates.

    3. I offered a picture of Bubba, The Stretcher, Mr. Tiny, and Julio. that I found in public images, but it hasn’t shown up here as yet. I didn’t see one of Thor.

  11. Friday evening’s dinner will be:

    Chicken Piccata with Pasta & Mushrooms
    Ingredients
    • ⅓ cup all-purpose flour, divided
    • 2 cups reduced-sodium chicken broth
    • ½ cup white wine
    • 2 teaspoons butter
    • 6 ounces whole-wheat angel hair pasta
    • ½ teaspoon salt, divided
    • ¼ teaspoon freshly ground pepper
    • 4 chicken cutlets, ( ¾-1 pound total), trimmed
    • 3 large cloves garlic, minced
    • 1 10-ounce package mushrooms, sliced
    • 2 tablespoons lemon juice
    • ¼ cup chopped fresh parsley
    • 2 tablespoons capers, rinsed

    Preparation
    1. Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Add pasta and cook until just tender, 4 to 6 minutes or according to package directions. Drain and rinse.
    2. Meanwhile, whisk 5 teaspoons flour and broth in a small bowl until smooth. Place the remaining flour in a shallow dish. Season chicken with ¼ teaspoon salt and pepper and dredge both sides in the flour. Heat 2 teaspoons oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add the chicken and cook until browned and no longer pink in the middle, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Transfer to a plate; cover and keep warm.
    3. Heat the remaining 1 teaspoon oil in the pan over medium-high heat. Add mushrooms and cook, stirring, until they release their juices and begin to brown, about 5 minutes. Transfer to a plate. Add garlic and wine to the pan and cook until reduced by half, 1 to 2 minutes. Stir in the reserved broth-flour mixture, lemon juice and the remaining ¼ teaspoon salt. Bring to a simmer and cook, stirring, until the sauce is thickened, about 5 minutes.
    4. Stir in parsley, capers, butter and the reserved mushrooms. Measure out ½ cup of the mushroom sauce. Toss the pasta in the pan with the remaining sauce. Serve the pasta topped with the chicken and the reserved sauce.

      1. “Bring a large pot of water to a boil.”

        Somebody makin’ a pot of Gumbo? KEEYAW!!!

        1. No gumbo, but gonna do a pot of jambalaya tomorrow… a bit far from the south, but will do what I can. gotta work an extra shift next week, so I’ll miss the crawfish boil with some friends, and i’m not the least bit happy about it!

  12. Any update on BRANDON BLACKSTONE, EX Marine and total shitbag? He was supposed to be sentenced in Feb, but I can’t find anything new. He was featured here, but I want to keep this dirt bag in the front until he gets to his new home. Not many days left in Feb… Hope he gets the full 21 years and loses anything given to him. Hope his new roommate plays Gilligan’s Island with him. “You be Gilligan, I’ll be the Skipper. Now c’mere little buddy…”

  13. Taking a break from some plumbing work here at the Hovel.

    Question:

    Does anyone have an ad for “Men’s tights” located at the top of this page, right below the “home/stolen valor” button? I do.

    Sooooooo, for the helluva it, I clicked on it.

    I just placed my order for 15 pairs of tights after seeing pictures of them. I’m going to be soooooo popular with the ladies!! 😉

    http://koalaswim.com/ko_Tights_and_Leggings_master.htm

    1. I have it….and have to look at that ad every day, no matter how often I cleared the cache…

    2. I figured that it was a product tie in with a “proud woman owned business” since the Vice President of the company has a preference for spandex. In fact, he started a 1980’s tribute band with the employees of the “proud woman owned business”. The name of the band? Spandex Ballet, of course.

    1. OOh God please! if it’s true, lets start a go fund me page, I’ll be happy to contribute if it means it gets his good for nothing floppy eared ass out of this country!

    2. I did read that. The problem is that you do have to be French to be the French president, and That One can barely communicate in English.

      1. You have to be American to be President in America, and that didn’t seem to be a problem for him. Or at least that is what they say on the internet.

    1. PUH-LEEZE don’t conjure the UC Berzerkely critter I refer to as Babbles McButthead!!!

    1. “…There speaks the voice of a generation: celebrate diversity by enforcing conformity….”

      “Conformism leads to uniformity rather than unity.”

      “Social justice cannot be attained by violence. Violence kills what it intends to create.”

      Pope John Paul II

  14. Well, here’s an interesting little bit that might involve Stolen Valor as well: it turns out one of the ‘experts’ that Fox had about Sweden the other day not only has no connection to Swedish security, but also has a record, and claims involvement with Naval Special Operations (unclear if this meant US or Sweden):

    http://www.dn.se/nyheter/varlden/fake-sweden-expert-on-fox-news-has-criminal-convictions-in-us-no-connection-to-swedish-security/

    And the Google cache of the now-deleted company webpage:
    http://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:8hSHTLPDKfwJ:www.modus.world/Team/Nils-Gustav-Bildt+&cd=1&hl=en&ct=clnk&gl=se

    1. Jared Stern will vouch for his qualifications. Anyone here from Jared lately? I would imagine that following his being featured her at TAH, his urinating in Gatorade bottles is more of a matter of economics than of convenience.

    1. Rumor is that Jerry Foster aka “Cocksucker Extraordinaire” sucks cock behind dumpsters at the DAV Chapter 55 in Simi Valley dressed as a Navy Commander Hull Technician.

    1. Well, I looked at that, entered my name, and found that there are several hundred other women with the same or similar name, and nothing about my personal stuff is in there.

      1. Even with your birth year? If you need to narrow it down even further, put in the city and state of your current (or previous) residence. I keep things pretty private (I mostly use aliases online) but I still found a ton of stuff on myself and my immediate family, even down to a college dorm and room number, all of it taken from public records.

      2. I’m only going to say that it had only my residence in one state, not where I was born, where we lived after that, how many times we moved until I left home, and not my residence in other states at all. Still, I did the ‘opt out’ thing because of some crapweasel who likes to annoy people.
        And I keep most stuff private, too, because of websites like that one.

  15. I spent some time on Infowars tonight – probably too much time – and came across this bit of disturbing stuff.

    http://www.infowars.com/cnn-host-blames-intolerant-father-for-12-year-old-girl-not-wanting-to-see-a-penis-in-the-locker-room/

    Now, I have difficulty with a grown man like Chris Cuomo labeling a father ‘intolerant’ when a child does not to be in the same locker room with a naked teenaged boy. When are these libretard crapweasels going to have even a smidge of understanding about the impact of this kind of thing on children?
    I think the intolerance is entirely coming from the left side of the fence, the smug, smarmy, sleazoids who deny reality and who want us all to be same-same when we are not. I have said before that if I can’t shut my bathroom door, you’ll have to wait outside the house.

  16. Since this is open thread, I’m taking over/under if certain disgraced and disbarred attorney will either 1 Weasel out of his Court Appearance on the 3rd or 2 Try to get a continuance.

      1. EX-PH, thats a strong possibly, followed up with a 20 page incoherent babbling of an excuse to the court saying that his catheter was inadvertently shoved up his asshole,there were tacks on the tarmac of the airfield, there was water in the gas line or there were rustling bushes.
        All followed up with conspiracy theories of “self murder”, Etc

    1. Regardless I’m betting that he will continue to gracefully self-copulate while he makes himself the laughing stock of every courthouse he enters.

    2. If he does show up, I’m betting that he’ll go Chernobyl in the courtroom and get himself cited for contempt of court… and get to meet some new friends in jail.

  17. Remember the riots in WDC on Inauguration Day? Store windows smashed, trash cans set on fire, stuff like that?

    Well, it seems that over 200 of those silly protestors were arrested for felony rioting and property damage, among other things which included setting a limo on fire, and are now facing hefty fines up to $25,000 and up to 10 years in jail.
    http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-4144360/Anti-Trump-protesters-face-10-years-prison.html

    But wait! There’s more! There are additional charges, including assaulting police officers, which carries additional fines up to $10,000 and up to 30 years in jail.
    http://wtop.com/dc/2017/02/charges-indictments-added-inauguration-day-protests/

    Oh, those ‘day out’ strikes last week? They were supposed to go for two days, but after the first day, the crowd petered out to barely 200 on the 2nd day in Manhattan and elsewhere, equally poor attendance.

    https://www.usnews.com/news/top-news/articles/2017-02-17/more-anti-trump-rallies-planned-in-us-cities

    Reality hurts, doesn’t it?

    1. President Trump DID declare himself to be “The Law and Order Candidate ” during his campaign and it looks like he’s intent on living up to that promise as well.

  18. So the DNC has elected former Secretary of Labor Perez to take their helm while he chose Ellison to be his second fiddle. So now they have a Marxist and a owed racist at their wheel with a Muslim who is affiliated with tha Nation of Islam next to him, it looks like they’re still plunging off the proverbial cliff as fast and hard as they can!

    1. They’re running scared, API. I expect to see more turmoil and more arrests like the January stuff.

      Google and YouTube and others are trying to stifle opposite opinions by refusing to place ads by Infowars and Breitbart. Stuff like that. Now while no one is obligated to carry your ad placements, it does smack of strident hypocrisy that InfoWars and others were OK before the November election and now are not.

      1. I heard that the DNC honchos have forwarded the idea of Al Franken and Jill Stein on their Presidential Ticket next time around, they want FRANKEN – STEIN 2020.

    2. I have no real issue with either of them personally as I do not know really all that much about them.

      What I do find interesting is the fact that the Democratic Party got routed (and that is a nice way of saying it) in the election(s) and they still have not figured it out.

      The Old Guard (Pelosi, etc.) hanging on, divisiveness in the ranks, liberals attacking moderate democratic (and mostly decent in some cases) politicians because they are willing to work with the status quo, inability to galvanize and push a position in a logical manner outside of protests and of course, my favorite, the newly elected chair stepping and trashing the Trump establishment without even knowing what is going on (and a lot of GOP folks trash Trump as well).

      Liberals versus Democrats. And most of the players are still sounding off. And these are the very same players that helped (in some cases) create and facilitate the demise of their party due to ignorance, greed, radical feminism, apathy and lack of tolerance for others with different beliefs.

      And lets not forget the media. After a eight year break they now find themselves working overtime to assist their brethren in the political arena. just like in March Madness, it ain’t over until its over. They should have followed that in the election.

      But don’t sweat it! In the end, its someone else fault! Political and Economic Liberalism 101!

      I would be curious if the status quo in the party establishment had a figure or number for all of those that have abandoned the party because of the infighting? Loosely translated, all Liberals are Democrats but not all Democrats are Liberals. They seem to have forgotten this…..

      1. Oh.

        And the False Commander “Phony” Phil Monkress (CEO of All-Points Logistics) works balls as he steals from taxpayers through his fake Native American, Navy SEAL and Law Enforcement claims.

        Phil Monkress (CEO of All-Points Logistics) = Thief.

  19. Late in the weekend, but I just tuned into an ad that is somewhere between hilarious and disturbing. Had heard it before, but never listened to it until a few minutes ago.

    There’s this fat Boo Boo kid screeching (sounding sort of like a used car salesman) about her fat mother’s new reality show where she apparently lost some weight and had some restoration work done.

    It’s funny because I have no idea why I should care, and disturbing because enough people must care to make it worthwhile making whatever it is. Why?

    Oh, well. Another one of those things I will not be watching.
