| Overnight Open Thread (Mætenloch)Good evening morons! Tonight as part of Veteran's Day we honor those who have served. New Trailer for HBO’s “The Pacific”HBO has released a new trailer for “The Pacific”, an epic mini-series about the war with Japan from the creators of “Band Of Brothers”. You can see the first trailer here. The miniseries is based on E.B. Sledge’s With the Old Breed: At Peleliu and Okinawa, a book that I highly recommend. It's a honest matter of fact account of his experiences in the Pacific and yet it's also haunting and even poetic. It has a 5 star average rating and deservedly so. Also here is a partial interview with E.B. Sledge himself. Remembering Wing Commander Jack Rose They're not going to accept your hate any more. And how can we forget the poster child for douchebags: ![]() All pretty much true. But the one that's always bothered me is that most RoComs end with the happily-ever-after wedding scene. The truth is the wedding is just the semi-shaky and stressful start to the real story. And most of the work and payoff lies in the future. Oh and if your boyfriend doesn't marry you, please don't call 911 repeatedly. VW Van Stolen 35 Years Ago Found in Shipping Container I can beat this though. A friend of the family had his MG TD stolen back when in the mid 60's when he was in college. Two years ago police in OH found it in someone's basement and returned the car to him. He's now restoring it 44 years after last driving it. Which Drugs Are really The Most Dangerous Soooo...I guess I won't start that heroin habit after all. Tonight's post brought to you by American soldiers: ![]() Comments1
Okay, which one of you morons is Andy Levy, 'cause his response to a possible conservative meet-up was just freakin' awesome.

I also saw Law Abiding Citizen today. Not as good as Taken. It's a little more predictable, but it's a decent vigilante flick.

I did the happy dance last night. The 16 year old came home from work. Normally, she has zero interest in talking to the parental units but last night was one of those rare nights she felt like chatting up Mom and Dad. Got on the subject of what she was doing in school (private Catholic High School). One of her classes was "Social Justice". Explained they had to do a paper on if it was o.k. to help illegal immigrants. Her answer "Hell No, they aren't here legally, we have enough problems with our own people, ship them all back to where they came from." Mrs. Mallamutt, being the bleeding heart liberal, just slinked back to the bedroom to avoid the sight of me high fiving my daughter. I did not gloat. I merely walked backed to the bedroom, and doing my best Darth Vader impersonation (which sucks) told my wife "Soon, her journey to the dark side will be complete.".

My Great Grandfather served in the Civil War with a New York Calvary Unit. His job was to protect DC from Johnny Reb. He never saw action, but it's cool to have an ancestor who served the U.S. in this way.

I am hesitant on "The Pacific". I am sure it will be good, but I doubt it will be as good as Band of Brothers. Part of what made BoB so good to be was that it didn't involve the conventional Hollywood plot lines. It was simply about the men during the war, preparing for war, and their conversations and interactions while in the field. The only love interest was when the Medic fell in love with the French nurse, but it took up maybe 5 minutes of the episode and wasn't over the top sappy. My concern is that they will turn "The Pacific" into something more like "Pearl Harbor"/"Flags of our Fathers" than BoB or "Letters from Iwo Jima". It will be more about the mens lives states side as well as in theater. It will be more hollywood, than semi-documentary(i use that term in its loosest sense).
I don't know if that makes sense to anyone, but that is the feeling i got from the clip. That said, I will watch it, I will probably love it, but I am not expecting Band of Brothers level entertainment. Posted by: Ben at November 11, 2009 10:06 PM (bftbi) 19

#13. WASHINGTON – President Barack Obama does not plan to accept any of the
Afghanistan war options presented by his national security team,
pushing instead for revisions to clarify how and when U.S. troops would
turn over responsibility to the Afghan government, a senior
administration official said Wednesday.
I remember during one of my ROTC classes that there are 3 possible decisions to make about any situation - the right decision, the wrong decisions, and no decision. In this case, Obama's making "no decision". This is probably the worst decision. Or, as another poster said, Obama is voting "present".

He did the wreath laying at Arlington. Of course, at one point during the ceremony, Michelle our Belle and Sheriff Joe were laughing about something. On camera. I guess no one told these 2 clowns it was supposed to be a somber ceremony. Of course, what do you expect from an Administration that does a "shout out" before addressing the tragedy that was Fort Hood. Posted by: Mallamutt at November 11, 2009 10:11 PM (V9SYy) 28

Oh for the love of God. Did these people not see the camera rolling? Do they not know that even though they don't care, they should at least PRETEND? I'll give Slow Joe a pass. He's an idiot and mostly harmless. I expect Michelle to be better at holding her nose since she sleeps with Barry every night and has to stroke his ego all the time.

Let me be clear, I was for the war in Afghanistan before I was against it. Major Hasan has made it clear that we are wrong in this war and I must vote present until Sheriff Joe can figure out how to split Afghanistan peacefully in three sections. Congress must also pass the legalization of Opium so we can undercut the Taliban's source of income.

Mallamutt-
I've felt the same way with all of my neices and nephews, who despite being the product of public schools have all gone conservative. Examples: Two of my nephews pop up on Facebook as having joined the group "Dora the Explorer is SO an Illegal Alien." Another nephew in a Facebook update describes his nightmare as being stuck alone with Barack Obama. A neice is in trouble in college during her Freshman year for arguing a conservative point of view with an ultra-lefty professor...and winning! Since my wife and I don't have kids, these are my precious little vicarious moments. Posted by: Winston Smith at November 11, 2009 10:27 PM (MFbfZ) 65

And as far as Obama's "none of the above" move on Afghanistan: it's a prelude to a retreat. No doubt or question. He'll blame it all on Karzai and the corruption in the Afghan government, of course, like Afghanistan has ever been anything other than a completely corrupt shit-hole. Alexander the Great even mentioned how unreliable and corrupt the Pashtuns are. It's not like this is a new phenomenon.
For Bammer, it's purely politics. This war looks primed to drag on far beyond Bammer's POTUS horizon, bringing him only grief with no countervailing glorious victories to use at election-time. This is a President who has almost no real grasp of foreign-policy at all, and is ignoring the advice of his senior military men in favor of political appointees and State Department hacks. And the Paks, ever sensitive to the winds of change, will see this (correctly) as American fecklessness and will pull back their own assaults into the FATA -- why bother agitating the Taliban if they can just run over into Afghanistan? And the ISI never has been all that keen on putting the blocks to the Taliban anyway; the Taliban are good allies for the ISI in many ways. And of course it will re-ignite the meme that Americans are always weak, they always run from a tough fight: the lie we thought we laid to rest in Iraq once and for all. Mr. Obama: you may not be interested in our enemies right now, distracted as you are with your domestic agenda. But our enemies are interested in us. We swore eight years ago to bring the perpetrators of 9/11 to justice -- that we would not falter or fail. Well, from where I'm standing, this certainly looks like faltering...and our enemies will see it that way as well. Posted by: Monty at November 11, 2009 10:36 PM (nTxjg) 76

If you can wait for the DVD, avoid HBO if you can. It's always been left, that I know. But I got it a month ago for Curb Your Enthusiasm. Since then, they've been showing this documentary every Monday night about the mistreatment of homosexuals in every aspect of life (and I'm gay friendly (for lack of a better phrase) but it's a bit much-even for me). Oh and then there's this documentary on the damn erection over election of President All Eyes on Me. Vomit worthy. Because I've become a complete paranoid over the past year I'm convinced they held off on showing until now as they knew at some point his ratings would take a noise dive and they're trying to recapture the magic that was 2008. Sounds like a project right up Kumar's alley. I don't even flip over to HBO except for Sundays at 9m-total waste of $15 p/month. Posted by: laceyunderalls at November 11, 2009 10:40 PM (ixcr8) 84

I have many Asian American friends. Some have mentioned isolated incidents of prejudice, but for the most part never complain. Most of them just work hard and succeed- As all Americans should! Posted by: GregInSeattle at November 11, 2009 10:41 PM (B5cM9) 87
For what it's worth, South Park officially sux. Everybody knows it, we've seen it deteriorate for some time. Somebody should make the decision to put it out of its misery, because it's an embarrassment to keep using the same characters to do what has essentially nothing to do with their previous seasons. Your critizism follows this formula 1. Make comment 2.?? 3. make a fortune. Posted by: Ben at November 11, 2009 10:41 PM (bftbi) 88
Th biggest story of the night is that wicked-smart genius Barack Obama has decided to preemptively lose the Afghan War by refusing his General's troop requests. WHOO-HOOO, now Vietnam isn't the only war the U.S. has lost. Hey, the Left and the Democrats (but I repeat myself) tried their best to lose the War in Iraq but that dang BusHitler stayed the course and refused to go wobbly and won the damn thing. Not that Barack and his pals didn't do all they could to lose it also. Posted by: Hughie at November 11, 2009 10:42 PM (KAa2W) 89

If you can wait for the DVD, avoid HBO if you can. It's always been left, that I know. But I got it a month ago for Curb Your Enthusiasm. Since then, they've been showing this documentary every Monday night about the mistreatment of homosexuals in every aspect of life (and I'm gay friendly (for lack of a better phrase) but it's a bit much-even for me). Oh and then there's this documentary on the damn erection over election of President All Eyes on Me. Vomit worthy. Because I've become a complete paranoid over the past year I'm convinced they held off on showing until now as they knew at some point his ratings would take a noise dive and they're trying to recapture the magic that was 2008. Sounds like a project right up Kumar's alley. I don't even flip over to HBO except for Sundays at 9m-total waste of $15 p/month.
yeah i love a show on Showtime called "dexter" but i refuse to pay for it. i go to this site ch131(dot)com, it has all the shows the day after they come out. Posted by: Ben at November 11, 2009 10:43 PM (bftbi) 91

Greg, yeah Asians aren't really complainers. Something about being disciplined and knowing life ain't fair so make the best of it. That's probably also part of having most Asian countries having been taken over by genocidal Communists the last century. That gives you some perspective.

You know what my favorite rom-com was? Lethal Weapon. Those two guys loved each other. It was tender, revealing, funny, and heart-warming. I think everyone should watch it. And Kill Bill, where the two lovers overcome their differences in order to meet one last time. It was a wonderful moment.

Good night all. Back to the grind in the AM. Maybe Obama will have changed his mind again.

the 1000 suns thing
I think the phrase originated with Robert Oppenheimer's quotation of a line from the Bhagavad-Gita during the testing of the first atomic bomb in 1945. Robert Jungk then used the line in the title of a book he published in 1958 about the history of the Manhattan Project, called Brighter Than a Thousand Suns: A Personal History of the Atomic Scientists. So the phrase has been around for awhile as a description of apocalyptic wrath. Seems a bit extreme to use about a kitteh, though. Posted by: PA Cat at November 11, 2009 11:00 PM (zVthp) 126

mystry,
Downtown LA is a shithole, but the libs are doing their best to gentrify it and are moderately succeeding. There's not a whole lot abandoned there. When we were in Downtown Syracuse, I'd say about 80% of the buildings are abandoned and the store fronts are empty. It all looks like everything stopped somewhere in the 60s and 70s. I see lots of commercial for sale signs and otherwise abandoned warehouses. It's so depressing. Posted by: wherestherum at November 11, 2009 11:12 PM (GZnia) 153

Sledge's "Breed" is an amazing book. In the niche of "combat as seen by the point-of-the-spear soldier" it's about as good as it gets.
There's a section that I can't get out of my head. His unit lands on Okinawa and works towards the North end of the island. The North wasn't strongly held. After that, they were needed in the South and walked there. He describes the walk and what he saw on the way in a few pages - it's like Dante descending deeper and deeper into the Inferno. They'll probably overlook that in the HBO series - too bad. I'd love to see it. If you want another book that's similar to "With the Old Breed", check out Manchester's "Goodbye Darkness".

whoa. Pittsburgh is doing just fine. We lost a large part of the steel industry in the 1980s, not 2000s. However we still maintain a lot of steel jobs here. We have US Steel's largest plants here, Clairton, Irvin, and Edgar Thompson. We have AK Steel's Butler Plant which is the best plant AK has. We've got Arcelor Mittal, Kennemetal, etc. Pittsburgh is actually doing alright right now compared to the rest of the nation. Pittsburgh's decline happened between 1970-1990.

I'm having a bad relationship week. I'm fairly certain, based on the number of times I have now been told "it's not you, it's me" that it actually really is me. I've been reduced to listening to the Carpenters and eating butterfingers. I'd become a crazy cat lady, but I don't really care for cats that much. Instead I'm thinking of becoming one of those crazy QVC ladies, the kind you hear on QVC calling in late at night and making up stories about who they are buying the 6 sets of Marie Osmond dolls for because everyone knows that they live alone and their family doesn't talk to them and the boxes they order just pile up in the spare rooms and hallways.

PGIS - don't let the guys get you down. You just haven't found the one. It only takes one. And it usually happens when you least expect it. sorry to sound cliche, but that's usually the way.

Speaking of relationships I think it's over for my wife's sister and her hubby. She moved out back in March but the hubby has been holding out hope. Well, today he changed his relationship status on Facebook to single. When asked about it he replies: Read 1 Corinthians 7:15-16. It's a shame. He wasn't the greatest hubby for a long time (bought a freaking car they couldn't afford without consulting her for example) but finally gets his act together and she decides to go nuts.

#152 WTR. Went to the LA car shown about threee-four years ago. Didn't seem that bad, but that is only a tiny part of the city. What seemed different, is all the vendors grilling food on portable grilles, and people walking aimlessly in front of cars. BTW, what were they usually cooking?

Good night, Sassy!
mystry, yeah, I've noticed the prevalence of taco trucks and food carts popping up all over LA. Even in the Valley. It truly is something imported from Mexico, although I know it's a NY thing to have hot dog stands on every corner. In LA it's taco or fruit carts. The Powers That Be and the Developers have poured billions into LA to revitalize it. Like the new LA Live thing, which I think is a building filled with clubs and restaurants, but I'm not sure. I think it opened last year, but I didn't really follow the publicity on it. The only problem is, with all these new cool places to go, they either don't have enough parking or you have to take a mortgage out to pay for parking. Or you can't even get down there because there's just too damn much traffic. Posted by: wherestherum at November 11, 2009 11:45 PM (GZnia) 211

To the m'nettes with guy problems- Take comfort in the fact that you're not alone (okay that's not a comforting though but misery loves company). Two things: (1) if you're here--you're amongst friends (and I say that not being a touchy feely kinda girl. in fact I hate that shit) and (2) it's pretty obvious if you can keep up here, you're probably pretty quick. go to other blogs--you won't find the same level of intelligence (ironic considering s it's Moronville around these parts).

Did you see the article that said disabled groups were complaining b/c the guy who plays Artie isn't really disabled and that Glee should have casted a real paraplegic? This episode got a little preachy with the diversity thing, but since it features 2 handicapped kids, I don't see what the disabled groups were bitching about. It put them in a good light and who's going to know that Artie isn't really disabled?

Girl Thursday! You're here! You got off the Carrie Prejean sex vid thread too fast last night for me to tell you... She was VERY wise to have left. I just assumed that, at some point, a man gets tired of seeing the same naked woman all the time ... so maybe it's best to limit exposure to keep him interested? Heh. No, they never tire of the same body, but they also like to see them ALL. Men are just more visually oriented when it comes to sexual stimulation than women are. Scott's right, the visual variety doesn't lead them to stray; a man is either the faithful type or he's not. As the sexual aggressor, men are less likely to be seduced if he's not already infidelity-prone, whereas women, who are used to being pursued, are more vulnerable to seduction.

I peeked in on that thread. It was pretty ugly.

Okay, just popping in since this week in crunch time at work.
Finally caught Glee for the first time tonight. I did not think to see it, but after watching an ad that showed me that the actress (I confess to not knowing her name) who played the hilariously ribald supervisor in The 40 Year-Old Virgin and the occasional appearance on 2 1/2 Men as the crazy shrink --plus the recommendations of others here-- I gave it a shot. *SHRUG* I wasn't that impressed. It had some funny bits, but really, where the hell did the creators of this show go to high school? Cheerleaders and football players in the fucking glee club? My high school did not have a glee club, but no football player or cheerleader there would have been caught dead on even the debate or forensics teams, never mind a glee club. An invasion of alien reptile babes is more realistic. I may give it one more week. Posted by: logprof at November 12, 2009 12:21 AM (I3Udb) 287

"Probably the best place is Home Depot... or any hardware store. You just walk up to the cutest guy and say 'Do you know where I get nailed? I mean nails? Pardon me, I've been drinking all afternoon.' And that way he knows: one, that you're easy, and two, that you like to drink." Posted by: Girl Thursday at November 12, 2009 12:24 AM (wi8eD) 298

Well, I'm 46, still muscular from my weightlifting days, but starting to gain weight, (thanks to Mrs. Sam Adams I might add). But can't tie a knot with a cherry stem or suck the chrome off a trailer hitch. My vision is really starting to suck, and my testicles are getting longer. Fucking sucks getting old.

291, I'm 43 and overweight as well, and I can also tie a cherry stem in a knot with my tongue (and teeth). And not by tying one beforehand and hiding it in my cheek either. Yes, it is difficult, but it can be done.
It's funny how many women are actually impressed by that now that I'm older, overweight and married. When I was a young trim single squid I couldn't get spit on with that trick. 289, that's not an accurate quote mind you, but it is indicative of how one commenter started out posting.

You know what my favorite rom-com was? Lethal Weapon. Those two guys loved each other. It was tender, revealing, funny, and heart-warming. I think everyone should watch it. And Kill Bill, where the two lovers overcome their differences in order to meet one last time. It was a wonderful moment.

My first car was a 2000 Ford Focus. I loved that car and now my dad drives it. It's also the dog car so there's dog hair all over the backseat. That car still handles beautifully, but it needs a bigger engine. It struggles so hard to get up hill with it's tiny, underpowered 4 banger.

Also "Why do men have nipples?"
To confuse women. They think that since they like them to be manipulated, surely the men will like it as well. Of course, I could make millions selling women beachfront property in Arizona if they believe that. Posted by: Samuel Adams at November 12, 2009 02:03 AM (nxUYP) 492

I started playing NTN trivia games on their sports bar TV. they only allow,and still do, only six characters for their handle. So. if you see mystry in a BW3 bar on the screen, its me.

Seriously, are you being coy or serious? We men are easy. Yeah, we can be assholes at times, but it is so easy to please a man. Not just sex either. If you can just be patient with us and let us be men, it's really not that hard. EG: Say I'm watching a Dallas Cowboys game, and I jump off the couch and scream when they either score a touchdown or they fuck up a play or get a stupid penalty. Some women will yell at us and say "how can the T-V hear you acting like an idiot". But the women who gets us will say "wow, that's kind of childish, but that is how men act sometimes and I love him for being so passionate". If you're in the latter camp, then you are the perfect woman for us. Again, simple really. Posted by: Samuel Adams at November 12, 2009 02:53 AM (nxUYP) 546

I gave my 24 year old daughter some advice on her wedding day. I told her, that men are vastly different than women, and that if you can recognize that fact and respect that they are men, and let them be men even if you think it goes against all of your female principles, (I don't mean abuse, infidelity, etc.) then he will love and worship you forever. Not hard. Posted by: Samuel Adams at November 12, 2009 03:02 AM (nxUYP) 553
552- It's not hard in theory, but it does take a while to adjust your mind to the concept that someone else's brain works completely different from yours. We all see the world from our own perspectives, after all. Good advice, though. I was just telling a friend that it benefits women more to live in harmony with men then to constantly be at war with them.

BEAUTY
Have seen dawn and sunset on moors and windy hills Coming in solemn beauty like slow old tunes of Spain: I have seen the lady April bringing in the daffodils, Bringing the springing grass and the soft warm April rain. I have heard the song of the blossoms and the old chant of the sea, And seen strange lands from under the arched white sails of ships; But the loveliest things of beauty God ever has showed to me Are her voice, and her hair, and eyes, and the dear red curve of her lips. - John Masefield Posted by: somejoe at November 12, 2009 04:33 AM (SSWdi) 583

Good Morning Morons – post about Mr. Psychotic Hasan
They were discussing Hasan on F&F this morning and how psychiatrists at Walter Read had thought he was “psychotic” and how Hasan’s attorney was just eating that up and how those psychiatrists rather than deal with the problem shipped him off at the same time they were providing his future defense.
Psychotic is just another buzzword that people like to throw out there and by itself means nothing. It literally means that he wasn’t playing with a full deck, or in the CA police jargon, he was 51-50. There should have been some other thing to go with that “psychotic” BS to say exactly what type of psychotic he was. We will probably never hear that.
But the reason I wanted to post on this is what it means to be a Muslim terrorist and psychotic. This reminded me of a course I had to take many years ago as part of my career path. The course was titled Aberrant Behavior and it was taught by a teaching psychiatrist from the University of NC. It was intended to teach us how to recognize the signs of someone who wasn’t firing on all cylinders and for signs of drug abuse.
Part of the course dealt with administering and scoring the MMPI (what we called the looney bin test). This test was given to all employees in my category and it was intended to root out the people who were significantly different from society’s norms in the test. And that my fellow Morons is the key to his stupid “psychotic” label. All of this mumbo-jumbo is based on society’s norms. When you give a test like the MMPI and you ask 100 people in the general population if, as a child, they wanted to kill their mother, the overwhelming majority of them would say NO regardless of whether they had periods where they were mad and wanted to. When someone responds yes to that question, and a number of others like it, they will fall outside of society’s norms. This then called for a personal one-on-one interview and evaluation of the individual.
Dr. XXXX told us when he first started administering this test to the potential hires who were all ex-Navy (and there were a lot of us) most of the people fell outside of the norms. E.G. people who spent a long time separated from society (and in a lot of cases underwater) just did not respond as the norms. He was forced to re-zero the “norms” for ex-Navy personnel.
That brings us to the point here. Do you think that people who have attended radical Muslim mosques and who have been taught by radical Imams preaching Jihad are going to score within the “norms” as the rest of society. The answer to that is hell no. They will ALL show up as psychotic on these kinds of tests and interviews.
After all, how many normal people strap 20 pounds of C-4 to their chest and blow themselves up for their religion? So this label of psychotic is pretty much useless and I am sure an Army prosecutor will destroy any attempted use of it.

I have no idea what the appeal is with bucket seats. Bench seats are far more convenient IMO,
My Chevy truck, that i unfortunately don't have anymore, had a bench seat. And it was cloth too, not leather or vinyl. It was by far the most comfortable car seat i've ever had, it was like driving while sitting on a mattress. Another good thing about that truck was there was no carpet on the floor, just rubber (or vinyl, whatever it was). So you could get in it with your shoes covered in mud, paint and hobo blood and then just wipe it down with a wet rag and it would be as good as new. I miss that truck.

Hah, my daughter is the curve breaker in her class and she's only half Asian. Her professor wants her to apply for some sort of minority scholarship (she's in grad school in the sciences), so I told her to ask him "which half?" I told her to be creative, wite a sob story about not being able to understand her own mom because she came from another country and has an accent, about her grandparents surviving Hiroshima... There's no way she'll get the scholarship, unless we can guilt them into giving her the money. It was funny because he's from China, the other professor is Caucasian, and the class is is evenly divided if you count my daughter on both sides.
