Weekend open thread

| May 8, 2015

I’ve been involved in a couple of distractions all day, most of them blog related, so sorry, I haven’t been paying much attention to you. But, here’s a picture from Pinto Nag that she took on her trip to Yellowstone a few months ago.

First comment?

Sure has been a good day so far with the Canadian Poser-Hoser.

Claw……I’m all done with FORMER step daughter. Judge signed off. All is good for me. Next thing is to change my will! I’m sure I will never have another conversation with step daughter and her hubby, Mr. Starving arteest!

CLAW131

Great!! Sounds like you have it all under control and things are going well.

Have a Blue-Bird kind of a day. I’ll be here all weekend for conversations.

BTW, I did hoist a small one yesterday in memory of your friend, the KIA WO. In July, I will be hoisting a toast in memory of a KIA WO from my RVN company. Hope you’ll join me then.

3/17 Air Cav

Claw…..you bet! Looking forward to the toast in July. I think it’s important not to forget those that did not make it back alive. We need to keep their memory alive. Not just a statistic or a faded photo!

John Robert Mallernee

Will you be having butter and honey on that toast, or cheese and bacon?

John Robert Mallernee

Well, you guys enjoy your toast.

I would prefer biscuits.

CLAW131

JRM, I know there may be times that your medications muddle and befuddle your mind, but:

I found your two comments about 3/17 and myself raising a toast in memory of our fallen comrades to be disrespectful and inappropriate.

To you they may just be names on the Wall, but for me and 3/17 they were real life individuals. For you to try and make jokes about our solemn ceremony in toasting their memory is just wrong.

Take this as you will, but please next time think hard about what you are saying and how it may effect the people involved.

So, in the words of Forrest Gump: That’s all I have to say about that.”

John Robert Mallernee

@ CLAW 131 and 3/17 AIR CAV:

You have my sincere apologies for any offense I caused.

I meant no harm.

3/17 Air Cav

Claw……thanks for taking care of business!

John…..apology accepted! Your still loved!

3/17AirCav, make sure you put a specific exclusionary clause in your revised will. Just to be on the safe side.

so happy for you 3/17!

Free advice is worth what it costs you, but I would specifically name them and leave each one 20 bucks. That way they can’t claim they are were left out or overlooked. Also leave arteest boy a gallon of milspec M274 Mule engine coolant. 🙂

CLAW131

Or even better leave the arteest boy a six-pack of warm Fresca and a vegetarian MRE. (since Ham & MFers are no longer available)

HELL YEAH, give him a “Spicy Penne Pasta” vegetarian MRE, it’s THE least favorite, and if he DOES eat it, he’ll be farting himself inside out for three days!!

A Proud Infidel®™

Hey, if I really wanted to be a turd, I’d say give him a sixpack of warm Fresca to wash it down with!

MA2USN

I disagree, the Spicy Penne Pasta was the best MRE! Add that in with a little Jalapeño cheese spread on the “Wheat Bread” it was a feast fit for royalty

Ex-PH2

I’d leave him a gift certificate from Dick Blick for art supplies, and stepdaughter can have some kitchen tools from Bed Bath & Beyond.

But that’s just me. 🙂

I wouldn’t give him Dick Blick, he doesn’t deserve that kind of quality.

Leave him a box of crayons and a Big Chief drawing pad.

Better yet, a nearly dry magic marker and a beat-up cardboard box!

It’s not necessary to leave them a token bequest if you don’t want to; explicitly disinheriting them works just as well. Something like “I disinherit Mr. and Mrs. Dumfuk. It is my intent that Mr. and Mrs. Dumfuk receive nothing under the provisions of this will.”

We are all eagerly awaiting your news on the distaff members. Mad is the one thing we are all good at. Please shine some light on them so they don’t become martyrs on the alter of Social Justice. Remember that sunshine is the best disinfectant. I have a vested interest in this because my nephew is a Ranger officer and I don’t want his job to be more dangerous as a result of PC BS.

Meh. Basically more of his bullshit. I haven’t said anything to or about him even his warped little mind would consider threatening, so he has to make up shit along with the same old rehashed crap he’s been slinging for the past year.

Been on jury duty this week. Every time the defense lawyer opened his mouth all I heard was Bernastys voice. It sounded like his TSA support radio interview. But I did not laugh once in court. Can I sue him for mental anguish?

Flagwaver

Speaking of our good buddy(fucker) Bernath… I’m not sure if anyone realized there was an update on the California Bar. He filed a response.

The only downside is that it looks to have been filed by an actual attorney who knows what legal documents, spelling, and grammar are.

http://members.calbar.ca.gov/courtDocs/14-O-00699-1.pdf

GDContractor

So if scumbag lawyer #2 agrees to represent scumbag lawyer #1, which one is the bigger scumbag?

Flagwaver

Here’s the highlights:

He states “Respondent has directly asked Bar attorney Joyee what the involvement of Terrence B. Hoey is upon these ill-considered charges and she has failed and/or refused to answer.”

Next, he states that he is going to call the State Bar Prosecutor as a witness because he believes she illegally brought frivolous charges against him. If that isn’t the pot calling the kettle black, I don’t know what is.

Not to mention, he is now holding himself out as a journalist now, and is trying to claim that the charges violate his First Amendment right of news gathering and reporting.

On the bottom of page 8, he again uses his typical sympathy line about having to cath himself.

I wonder if he asked them to call him Chief Petty Officer.

A Proud Infidel®™

Does he still claim to be the 13th POTUS?

Ex-PH2

He was not in attendance, API.

That doesn’t surprise me even one bit for some reason or another!

One report that was leaked (and is still unconfirmed) is that he slammed the phone down when he was cut off by the judge for talking out of turn. He later called back and claimed the line was giving him problems.

JAGC

That “response” to the bar is one rambling mess. When your audience is “the Bar,” one would expect at least some measure of competence. The only argument I can ascertain is I solicited clients, I said I was a attorney, but I really didn’t say I was an attorney… And people pick on me… Or something… Basically, I think he never informed potential clients outside CA where he was licensed (most state bars require this), and he basically admits this in his rambling statement although I’m not sure he realizes that he did incriminate himself. Because some words were spelled correctly, I wonder if this was another Mrs Bernath legal document?

HMCS(FMF) ret.

I bet the Mrs. did – she probably a better lawer than him (and possibly won a case or two in the process)…

Ex-PH2

‘rambling mess’ – That does explain why I couldn’t make any sense out of it, even with a dictionary, a guide dog, a map and a compass.

I do like the fact that he claims to be his wife’s lawyer.

Maybe legal, but cheesy as hell.

The forecast for the Plains is winter warnings, for snow from Colorado to Montana, Wyoming to the Dakotas. 50 tornadoes went tearing through the Plains yesterday, more to come. So much for global whatever-it-is.

It is raining in my kingdom. I am looking forward to a quiet weekend with several good books.

I had a thought today, I’ve toyed with the idea of opening a 50’s themed Diner, and I thought of one sign that would definitely be on the entrance, tell me what y’all think:

Pinocchio, Snow White and Superman are out for a stroll in town one day.
As they walk, they come across a sign:
“Beauty contest for the most beautiful woman in the world.”
“I am entering” said Snow White.
After half an hour she comes out and they ask her, “Well, how did you do?”
“First Place, “said Snow White.
They continue walking and they see a sign:
“Contest for the strongest man in the world.”
“I’m entering,” says Superman.
After half an hour he returns and they ask him,
“How did you make out?”
“First Place, “answers Superman. “Did you ever doubt?”
They continue walking when they see a sign:
“Contest! Who is the greatest liar in the world?”
Pinocchio says “this is mine.”
Half an hour later, he returns with tears in his eyes.
“What happened?” they asked.
“Who the hell is Hillary Clinton?” asked Pinocchio.

I spent a good part of the day with some outstanding warriors, now instructors at a premier Army School. Not a lot of appreciation for the Alex Jones followers who think that our military would abdicate their Oath of Enlistment.
Like me, they are sick of these dopes.

Trust me Frankie, there are also A LOT of us everyday “Legs” who feel the same way!

Frankie, could you pull a search for me please? Dalton “bunny love” coldiron made the claim that he went back into the army and is now a Ranger. Could ya post something to shut him up for at least the next few months

AMEN, Brother!

Preach it!

USAR54BH

I have a question that I can’t find an answer to that satisfies me.

Can you earn a device on the NDSM if you served in both OIF and OEF campaigns? My reserve discharge is basically a form letter. NPRC sent me an NDSM with device.

I appreciate any help with this.

CLAW131

I’ll try to help. To start with,what are the starting and ending dates on your total term of service?

CLAW131

If your active duty start date falls into the Desert Shield/Storm eligibility period (2 Aug 90 – 30 Nov 95) and then from 11 Sep 01 – Present Day, Yes, you would be authorized a Bronze Service Star for the NDSM.

Hondo

Actually, CLAW131 – since 2 Aug 1990, active duty other than for training/boards/med exam is technically no longer required. The NDSM is now also authorized for members of the Selected Reserve (TPU/IMA) in good standing who served during the defined periods of NDSM eligibility. See para 2-10. of AR 600-8-22.

Not sure about IRR service with active participation (e.g., a member of the IRR who wrangles funding for attendance at AT or who performs “points only” IDT). I think the answer is no, because if I recall correctly the IRR is technically not part of the SELRES. But I could be wrong. Was never able to find a definitive answer regarding that particular “corner case”.

USARBH54

Thanks for the replies.

I was active duty during Desert Storm and then was active Reserve during OEF and OIF.

Kinda old ET1

Short answer… No.
If your service is only post Sept 11 2001,you only qualify for one award of the medal.

I have the NDSM w/one bronze star…Gulf War 1 and Gulf War II.

Hondo

Yep. Gulf War I fell in the Aug 1990 – Nov 1995 NDSM qual period. Gulf War “II” – AKA OIF – fell in the GWOT NDSM period (Sep 2001 – present).

You and me both brother.

If you haven’t followed the quake news about Nepal, here is some.

This morning, the count of confirmed dead was 8,005. This will probably increase over the next few weeks as roads are reopened to traffic and remote areas are reached. There are a lot of people still missing who were climbers and hikers and may never be found.

In addition, per this article, the northern end of the range that Nepal sits in, the Lagntang Himal, dropped by 0.7m to 1.5meters and the southern end rose by as much as a meter. This has to be confirmed by a geosurvey, but the satellite that monitors these things has indicated these shifts in height.

A meter is 3.3 feet. That is a massive drop, if it’s confirmed. I have not seen anything yet about strong aftershocks, although they were predicted last week.

I’m sure it was caused by fracking or global warming or George Bush. /sarc

Ex-PH2

I note your /sarc, but those mountains are constructed by the activity of megathrust faults, with the India plate pushing against the Asia plate.

Wrong geography AND geology for fracking, and that’s kind of a snub toward the people whose lives are either gone, or in complete turmoil. Some villages are so remote that even though they are badly damaged, the aid workers haven’t been able to get to them yet to help those people. They are living at heights that have beastly cold nights and now they have no shelter from it.

Now I know that I spent too much time with an infantry unit.

Feeling a little homesick looking at that photo. I can almost smell the sagebrush.

Read something about the Garland shooting today. An overhead photo showed a trail of evidence markers for the police officers expended cartridges and the position of the dead bodies. It appears the officer cut one down away from their car moved forward and sliced the pie to get the other hiding behind the car. My hope is that at least one of them had few second to know that he was going to die and that he was a big fat failure at jihad.

I also read that the LEO’s identity is still being kept under wraps, and I’m all for that. As long as they do so, he won’t have to worry about goat-molesting fleabag jihadis coming after his family.

I’m still surprised nobody is claiming the officers were racist for turning to their weapons first against two black men.

If anyone is interested, I’m having a Kindle Countdown Sale this week. I have a Cold War thriller short story, “Flight of the Fantasy” (which has gotten some very good reviews) on sale (http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00RU1YST6) and along with my latest photo book, “A Different View: DJ, Doura, & Arab Jabour” (http://www.amazon.com/Different-View-Doura-Arab-Jabour-ebook/dp/B00Q6SC22O/). Both are currently at $0.99, but the price will rise over the next few days. Don’t have a Kindle? Get the app — I did for both computer and phone, and also took advantage of the opportunity to download several free volumes that give me the complete works of Kipling (along with a lot of other good works).

Yes, I’ve been quiet here of late. Part is having some go after others for things I write, say, think, or they imagine I do (I’m a hit man! Is that why people keep hitting me?) or say. Most part has been working on the charity, working for me, and working on a new phase of my writing career that has given the opportunity to put a novel directly on a publisher’s desk. Now, to convert a short story into the novel people seem to think it should be…

http://www.breitbart.com/big-government/2015/05/08/obama-ignores-slain-white-police-officer-while-honoring-gray-and-brown/

“The Washington Post reported Obama sent three government officials to Michael Brown’s funeral: Johnson and two officials who worked in the White House Office of Public Engagement, Marlon Marshall and Heather Foster. Brown robbed a convenience store before his fatal encounter with Officer Darren Wilson.

Both Gray and Brown were black.

Yet at the funeral on Friday for Officer Brian Moore, 25, a white NYPD officer who was cold-bloodedly murdered by a black man, Obama sent no one, according to New York 1, despite the fact that tens of thousands of uniformed officers stood in formation outside the church and hundreds of others attended the funeral inside.”

I bet my “surprised” face looks similar to yours.

I read that Officer Moore had been a cop his entire adult life, came from a family of cops and already had four awards for outstanding service.
RIP Officer Moore.

The efforts to bring DAB to national attention can only be credited to himself, what he does and most certainly what he says.

I had read the doc previously and I too was struck by the time traveling assertions. Timeline ALWAYS gets these assholes.

OT – I ran across a fine Irish joke. Apologies if it has already made the rounds.

Paddy had been drinking at his local Dublin pub all day and most of the night celebrating Ireland’s football victory. Mick, the bartender, says “You’ll not be drinking any more tonight, Paddy” Paddy replies “OK Mick, I’ll be on me way then.” Paddy spins around on his stool and steps off. He falls flat on his face. “Shoite” he says and pulls himself up by the stool and dusts himself off. He takes a step towards the door and falls flat on his face. “Shoite, Shoite!” He looks to the doorway and thinks to himself that if he can just get to the door and some fresh air he’ll be fine. He belly crawls to the door and shimmies up to the door frame. He sticks his head outside and takes a deep breath of fresh air, feels much better and takes a step out onto the sidewalk. He falls flat on his face. “Bi’Jesus… I’m tanked,” he says. He can see his house just a few doors down, and crawls to the door and shimmies up the door frame, opens the door and shimmies inside. He takes a look up the stairs and says “No way!” He crawls up the stairs to his bedroom door and says “If i can just make it to me bed.” He takes a step into the room and falls flat on his face. He says “to hell with it” and falls into bed. The next morning, his wife, Jess, comes into the room carrying a cup of coffee and says, “Get up Paddy. Did you have a bit to drink last night?”. Paddy says, “I did Jess. I was tanked’ pissed. But how’d you know?” “Mick called. You left y’wheelchair at the pub.”

Aside from the gobbledygook language, why is it that this dipstick failure finds it necessary to remind everyone within striking distance that he has a penis?
Is he that uncertain of it himself?

MCPO NYC USN Ret.

Possible Answers:

1. Some may suggest (like in mental health books and journals) that his bevavior and language, with respect to your question, may have a direct correlation to past and or current perverted criminal acts.

2. Seemingly so!

But what do I know.

A Proud Infidel®™

Just look at the things Daniel A. Bernath accuses others of doing and being, I perceive that as what Psych Professionals call “Projection”. It was described by Sigmund Freud as when one feels so intimidated, threatened and afraid of their own thoughts that they “project” them onto others like a convicted rapist accusing a Psychologist he’s seeing of wanting to do the same.

MCPO NYC USN Ret.

Yeah … Thank God we have an “Army” of Genuine CPO’s just peeling away at THAT onion.

The CPO Mess is deep and powerful. The power resides in the collective.

It is legitimate power that is given when you are initiated, used when needed and never abused. It is THE most effective way to get something done. Why do it alone when you can recruit 10’s, 100’s or 1,000’s Genuine CPO’s?

Stolen Valor is supposedly a victimless crime

Adam B. Appel of Anchorage, Alaska claimed for years to be a qualified member of the US Army Special Forces. When confronted, he later claimed that he had been an 18X SF candidate but failed out and remained an 11B. None of this is true. The evidence from NPRC is that Adam Appel never served in the military

https://adamappelfraud.wordpress.com/2014/12/14/an-open-letter-to-adam-appel-of-anchorage-alaska/

Adam Appel has advertised from donations for at least one fake “non-profit” in which he made false claims that the donations were tax-deductible.

We parked it up at camp Navajo, camping world did a lot of work on it last fall for winter, this past March we went up to Vegas via flagstaff to help a friend out. While at Cp Navajo we could not find our Trailer Lol… 🙂 it was under 7 feet of snow Lol….

The winter of 1977-78, my car was buried in a snowdrift outside my apartment, with three other cars. I have learned the hard way to put a fluorescent red or pink or green flag on the top end of the antenna if I want to find it when things are that bad.

Wesley Wilson AKA Enigma4you

I had a blow out on I 80, donner pass, Big truck in front of me thew a tire chain it was dumping snow and no place to pull over. Tire was shredded and wrapped around the axle. Side as torn up shocks were broken. underbelly was shredded I had to cut the remnants off the axle.

My rig is a 38 foot 5th wheel with three slides pulled by a one crew cab ford dually.

I limped it into Sacramento, the owners there are great people I was originally going to be there for a week and ended up being there 6 while I made repairs. My insurance company was very good to work with I had originally gires a company to fix it and they kept screwing me around so I did it myself.

I added a Tire pressure monitoring system to all 4 tires on the camper and all six on the truck, money well spent.

Long story short that blow out did just south of ten grand in damage.

I have to respectfully dissent with you, “Cow pies” fertilize soil very nicely, that makes manure useful. Phillip Monkress is one of the top
five most worthless pustules on the lower posterior of humanity!

We are rapidly approaching the two year anniversary of being introduced to The Genius Of Paul. To commemorate this historic event, I plan on removing the doors to all of the mailboxes on my street.

What is the latest on the Seal Man? I see all kinds of buffoonery from his ex-employee and his Oregon lawyer friend, but we never see ol Phil anymore. How about a where are they now series, John?

My wife helped me out of bed and now we are off to see a historical site.

Good luck, Master Chief, and may God go with you.

Are you still in D.C.?

I used to live there in the Ol’ Soldiers’ Home, and Washington, D.C. is a really dangerous place for an Irishman to be, or anyone who even looks like an Irishman.

I’ve had threats against my life, too, (i.e., many years ago) and it always amused me that anyone thought I was important enough to murder!

Threats? They wouldn’t be coming from a lawyer, a drunk, and a clown, would they?

On the Stolen Valor page, it has three of the known dirtbags listed as being in jail.

I might be mistaken, but isn’t BH Austin locked up as well for taking pictures of nude women and kids?
