I denounce myself — 16 Comments

  1. A fantastic book, ‘The Caine Mutiny”, follow the logic to prove the crazy as things start coming apart bit by bit because strawberries. A saying we had in the Army was that those in command are seldom stupid but that does not mean the are not crazy.

    Memo to self Susan, go by the book, one more loose thread to start pulling to see what unravels.

  2. We all knew you must have done it, Neo. For if not you, then one of us must be guilty, and that, that we could never admit out here in comment land. As to the strawberries, I’m allergic to them and I can prove it. This rash . . .

  3. I ate an omelette for breakfast. Scrambled, not stirred. Served on a bed of marble rye, covered with pure Canadian maple syrup. It was a religious experience with multinational influence.

  4. I was stationed at Key West naval base for seven months in 1953, but don’t remember if I ever ate or stole any Key Lime pies.
    Had a few beers on Duval Street though, and got to shake Pres. Truman’s hand.

  5. First, they came for the brownies, and only people with a sweet tooth noticed. Then they came for the strawberries, sprinkled with adulterated carbohydrates, and it was mayhem, it was breakfast at Wimbledon.

  6. When one reads the Rice memo, it’s a bit odd because she emailed it to herself, but after that it’s easy to get lost in the legal-bureaucratic weeds and nod out. Even with Andrew McCarthy’s able explication it’s still kinda weedy and noddy.

    However, given neo’s and AmmoGrrrll’s reducto ad absurdum versions, it’s much more clear what’s going on, as well as fun.

    What a disgrace Rice was as UN Ambassador and National Security Advisor.

  7. I grew up in the Daytona Beach area. Our favorite family restaurant was the Ranch House (apparently defunct) which served a marvelous Key Lime pie, even better because they used no food coloring. (I eschew Key Lime pie in which the filling looks like nuclear waste from “The Simpsons.”)

    Anyway, a hamburger, coffee and Key Lime pie at the Ranch House was the standard meal when my family picked me up on return visits.

  8. Rice’s email has but one purpose; it is intended to provide Obama with ‘plausible deniability’…

    He knew about everything and ordered it from the beginning. That’s a virtual certainty because no one in his administration was going to do anything illegal without his express approval. They worship the very ground “the lightbringer” walks on…

  9. They worship the very ground “the lightbringer” walks on…

    GB: The guy who coined that one for Obama, Mark Morford, lives on and continues to write his “enlightened” little screeds at SF Gate.

    The flipside to his Obama worship is non-stop viciousness towards all Americans to his right.

    “Daily Caller” has an update:

    At it happens, he was one of the yoga teachers at the studio where I once took lessons. I was surprised at what a nasty person he turned out to be.

    Most yoga teachers are left-ish of course, but they present themselves as friendly and compassionate. They avoid harsh judgments, if for no other reason, it detracts from the loving persona which is congruent with teaching yoga and the New Age.

    Not Mark Morford.

    Nor as he ever demonstrated in my reading even elementary open-mindedness that maybe the other side might have a point or two occasionally.

    Curious. I don’t think he’s typical, but I haven’t been to a yoga class in a long time.
