NO MO’ “HO HO HO” THIS CHRISTMAS

Steve Kelly cartoon

An Australian company that trains prospective Santas for Christmas has advised its employees to avoid the traditionally festive phrase "ho ho ho" because the term ho could be construed to be demeaning to women. No, really.

What’s up with the Aussies? They’ve turned into worse PC pansies than our most liberal American home grown nannie-thugs.

More details here.

FAVORITE QUOTES:

"But I think it is an imperfect document, and I think it is a document that reflects some deep flaws in American culture…it also reflected the fundamental flaw of this country that continues to this day."– Barack Obama on the U.S. Constitution

Suppose you were an idiot. And suppose you were a member of Congress. But I repeat myself.--Mark Twain
______________________

There can be no more fundamental civil right than the right to self-defense, because in some circumstances it *is* the right to life. If someone doesn’t recognize the RKBA [Right to Keep and Bear Arms], they don’t recognize an individual’s right to life, period. Those who talk about "Society’s" rights have no concept of - and thus place no real value on - the worth and dignity of the individual. People like that build re-education camps and gulags.--Voolfie, a blogger

There is danger that, if the Court does not temper its doctrinaire logic with a little practical wisdom, it will convert the constitutional Bill of Rights into a suicide pact.--Justice Robert H. Jackson in Terminiello v. Chicago
(Emphasis added.)

Bersa Thunder 9 Ultra Compact 9mm Semi-Auto Handgun

This is my choice for everyday concealed carry and self-defense. It’s affordable, concealable, 100% reliable, and comes with a lifetime warranty. New stock ships with two double stack 13 round magazines (10 shot magazines are available). The first shot is double-action, subsequent shots are single action and it has an ambidextrous hammer de-cocking safety and slide release. It’s designed for easy take-down for cleaning and quick and easy reassembly. It has an automatic firing pin safety and will not fire accidentally if dropped or bumped. Recoil is minimal and easily handled. I took my daughter shooting and we fired 4 different handguns. This was her favorite.

More Favorite Quotes

Freedom of speech does not confer upon anyone the right to be published. Nor does it impose on other citizens the duty to listen or to acknowledge the speech. Most importantly, it does not grant an immunity from criticism for the speech one gives -- because that would also constrain free speech.--Ed Morrissey at Captain's Quarters

...Columbia University won't allow U.S. military recruiters on campus because "Don't ask, don't tell" discriminates against homosexuals, but it will invite Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, whose government beheads you if they think you're bebottoming.--Mark Steyn

"Certainly one of the chief guarantees of freedom under any government, no matter how popular and respected, is the right of citizens to keep and bear arms. … The right of citizens to bear arms is just one guarantee against arbitrary government, one more safeguard, against the tyranny which now appears remote in America but which historically has proven to be always possible." --Hubert H. Humphrey

My Financial Guy, Jason Payne 801 226-6036

When I retired from Qwest in January 2004 I didn’t have much going for me in the way of financial advice. I made several mistakes that I wouldn’t have made if I’d had Jason F. Payne advising me from the outset. In a volatile turbulent market environment, Jason has managed our investments carefully and wisely and we’ve prospered, even to the point where we were able to finance the purchase of a new home with no other income than what we can take from our retirement funds. I don’t know where we’d be without him. If you’re considering retirement now or in the future, or if you have large sums of cash and aren’t sure how to manage it, other than just spend it, I recommend you contact Jason. Jason and his wife Joey have four children and live in Spanish Fork. Give him a call at 801 226-6036
