Every Sunday night back in the day, the whole family gathered 'round.

Obama's "leadership"

This is what it amounts to:

The Western Channel

Having a very hot summer here and shut in a lot more than usual, so I've been watching The Western Channel a lot. I grew up watching a lot of those old TV Westerns. Good stuff.

One show that I get to see Monday-Friday is "Paladin."


TV shows today have lousy theme songs. Well, except for "Two and a Half Men."

How's that workin' out for ya?

Have Obama supporters in Detroit learned a lesson? I doubt it!

Settle down!

From Stogie, who made the scooter graphic on my sidebar:

Another reason not to like Muslims

A friend of mine walks his dog every day. And guess what? Every Muslim who sees that dog looks daggers at the dog!

Fill your yard with dogs - and pigs! Muslim repellant!

A Bible verse for Obama

Let his days be few; and let another take his office. - Psalm 109:8

Warning! Strong language!

And one of my favorite "church" jokes:

Fun with match sticks

Armenian boxer Bagrat Grigoryan has an interesting hobby:

To make a St. Nicholas Church which is situated on Aktobe he needed 26 days, 34 000 matches, 4 litres of glue and 3 litres of lacquer.

Happy birthday, America!

Time for humor

With thanks to Big Bubba, who mailed me this great bit of advice

A guy is walking along a Florida beach when he comes across a
lamp partially buried in the sand. He picks up the lamp and gives it
a rub.

A genie appears and tells him he has been granted one wish.

The guy thinks for a moment and says, "I want to live
forever."

"Sorry," said the genie, "I'm not allowed to grant
eternal life."

"OK, then, I want to die after the Democrats balance
the budget and eliminate the debt.

"You crafty little bastard," said the genie.
