Weekend Open Thread

Ryan Pitts selfie

I’m guessing that most of you got the swag from TSO in regards to our little fund raiser a few weeks ago. If you didn’t get anything and you were expecting something, please let us know. My book keeping sucks. TSO and I were at the horse barn on Fort Myers, Virginia on Wednesday and then he went to the Change of Responsibility Ceremony for the new Regimental Command Sergeant Major of the 3rd Infantry on Thursday.

I got to take a selfie with Ryan Pitts. The first time I met him, he wasn’t yet a Medal of Honor recipient, so I got to congratulate him finally.

So that’s one of the things that went on behind the blog this week.

Lucky pure luck !!!!!

Oh and first to say, FUCK YOU DANNY BIRDBATH!!!
And Dullass and Psul’s Mom.

Hack Stone

Don’t be dissing on Psaul’s Mother. It isn’t her fault he grew up to be an asshole. All that evil came from the lucky sperm. Just remember that he screwed her out of $50,000 when he declared bankruptcy and defaulted on the money she loaned him.

By the way, today is his birthday. You could send him a birthday card, but I don’t know if he left a forwarding address when he vacated Wilson Lane.

Silentium Est Aureum

Birthed, or excreted?

A Proud Infidel®™

I bet on excreted. That or his was the rotten egg that still hatched.

ChipNASA

Vacated? Reston?
I’d be afraid it would be delivered but because his receptacle is door-less, it would probably just blow away.

Here’s wishing that Psul would get the greatest gift ever for his birthday.

Maybe someone could find it in their heart to send him a mailbox door?

Hack Stone

The mailbox on Wilson Lane now has a mailbox door. I think they call that “curb appeal”. Curb appeal also includes calling the guy who tacks those poster boards on utility poles to pay you $50 to haul away a collection of rusting Jaguars.

A Proud Infidel®™

A couple of days ago I saw THE shortest book ever published. the title is “Successful People That Drive Rusted-Out Junk Jaguars”.

RM3(SS)

Believe it or not, SOMEone might have actually sent him a mailbox door for Christmas. But being the drunken lout he is, SOMEone never even got a Christmas card from Asstech or whatever he calls that internet scam of his.
So, Fookem.

Hack Stone

Who was the genius that thought of setting up a Go Fund Me for Psaul to get a mailbox door. I wish that Hack would have thought of that.

Fscky-fsck

John Giduck – the turd with a face!

B Woodman

Fourth?

Silentium Est Aureum

Finally, a weekend off, and I worked “only” 68 hours this week.

Then back to it on Monday. Everyone on your heads!

MCPO NYC USN Ret.

10th … getting closer!

And with respect to that photo above, that is the worst PHOTOSHOP Jonn has ever done!

HA!

PS: Wee bit of a headache today, the bartendress over-served me yesterday!

HMCS(FMF) ret.

Question? Was she a Ginger with Boobehs?

Skippy

Crap I missed it again !!!!!!
Why so early

Daylight savings time, Skippy. You know, that time thing we boycott!

Skippy

Happy birthday Psul!

Jonn: Like the picture of you and SSG Pitts.

What an honor of you both posing together.

Thanks for sharing.

ChipNASA

OH, and THANKS TSO.

I know I donated right off the bat and then requested you send nothing but I do like the two signed posters.
They will be (eventually) matted and framed and hung in the home.

Hondo

This just in:

According to the CA Bar, Daniel Allen Bernath is STILL “Not Eligible To Practice Law”.

Sparks

Good things come to those who wait.

Silentium Est Aureum

Sadly for Lawn Dart Danny, the AlGoreNet knows all, sees all, and calls him on his bullshit.

Third class felony in Florida, Danny. Just a gentle reminder.

Hack Stone

Sounds like Carl Spackler at the end of Caddyshack when he blows up the golf course.

MCPO NYC USN Ret.

Jonn,

He is truly brilliant!

HMCS(FMF) ret.

Jonn, his courtroom demeanor should be a required class at every law school around the world… it should be called “Courtroom Conduct and Ethics 101” (aka: How not to show your ass in a room full of people).

Aysel

I just laughed out loud at the very dry recount of his leaving the court, and the fact that one of the foot notes has to explain some of his actions.

Reb

First, Glad you got to meet SSG PITTS. How awesome for you both. I read the PDF and any day I’ll get to send you a bottle.

A Proud Infidel®™

OH, so Daniel A. Bernath has not been disbarred YET. May his car horn suddenly be stuck on and his headlights be on high beam while he is right behind a band of the meanest 1%er Outlaw Bikers that have ever lived. May his wife eat matzo crackers in bed and may he roll in the crumbs!

Hondo

Patinence, API. “The wheels of justice turn slowly, but grind exceedingly fine.”

As I understand the setup in CA, formal disbarment is imposed by order of the CA Supreme Court. Apparently that can take a while after the Bar Court judge has recommended same.

Silentium Est Aureum

There are many such biker organizations in Florida, IIRC, like the Warlocks, Outlaws, Sons of Silence, and maybe even Vagos?

Hack Stone

As long as he says that he knows Phil Monkress and Keith Big Dawg Keeton, he should good to go.

Reb

Sons of Silence ?

MCPO NYC USN Ret.

That will change soon enough!

Hondo

From your lips to God’s ears, MCPO.

From your lips to God’s ears.

On this one, I sit at the right hand of God himself.

It was nice see he mentioned his catheter on court documents one more time.

Ex-PH2

Missed the opening. Oh, well.

Can any of you diesel sailors recommend a guide to diesel-powered ships?

Dennis - not chevy

I wouldn’t know from a diesel-powered ship if someone launched me out of a torpedo tube; but, if you’re anywhere near a military base, the base library will probably have a copy of Jane’s Fighting Ships. It would be in the reference section under a thick layer of dust. Some city libraries might have a copy written about the time of the Mayflower.

Dave Hardin

A helpful tip when watching EX-PH2 argue with Libtards and Sock Puppets.

Glad I could be of service.

The pooch has left his hootch.

Hack Stone

The fuel gauge reads empty. I say again, the fuel gauge reads empty. Over.

2/17 Air Cav

It’s okay. I looked for a warning sticker but found none. Therefore, you should have no problem keeping aloft. If the a/c engine couldn’t run w/o fuel, there would be a warning sticker on or near the gauge.

OWB

Jabberwocky.

Over, Red Rover.

Hey man, some dude’s talkin’ bad about Roger, man!

(Sarc on)Poor guy. What’s he gonna do now? Its not like he can support himself by crashing planes for a living. (Sarc off)

2/17 Air Cav

He can always go into the ‘sploding pineapple business. I hear there’s a hungry market for them.

OWB

With coconut?

2/17 Air Cav

Dagnabbit. I meant coconut.

OWB

Dunno ’bout that. ‘splody pineapples with a side of tiny coconuts floating toward Earth suspended from itty bitty parachutes is a rather nice visual.

A Proud Infidel®™

Is he still going coo-coo over coconuts?

Sapper3307

Make a video with Hulk Hogan.

nbcguy54ACTUAL

John – please pass a heartfelt thanks to TSO for the posters. Our shop is moving into new offices Monday and since the majority of my immediate co-workers are retired AF, they’ll get to see a couple of genuine Army studs on my wall every time they drop in.

Dave Hardin

You never know what shows up on Facebook

http://199.204.87.17/jonn/berbon.jpg

It will be spring soon, he should sober up about any time now.

LMAO AGAIN!!!!!

Poor Jonn.

38th!

HMCS(FMF) ret.

I may be poor, but damn it, I’m 92nd this week and PROUD OF IT!

Another Friday is here and here’s my weekly shoutout to Dickless Danni-boi Bernath (aka: Old Man Scrotum Face) and his buttbuddy, QuEeFeRs. Remember Danni-boi not to get QuEeFeRs too liquored up this weekend so he doesn’t go chasing the neighbors Pom trying to “score” with it. Also, remember that the letter “F” is your friend, especially when in command of an aircraft…

Bet you just can’t wait to get that “special letter” from the CA state bar, can’t you. It’s a matter of time… and I’m hoping there’s a set of special silver bracelets in your future.

Mick

Looks like I’m sliding in under the tag tonight at 93rd.

A very long and pointless day today; I’m way behind the power curve…

Reb

HAPPY BIRTHDAY OL TIMER ?

Sparks

Number 47!

Sparks

Ah, to be 47 once more. The things I would do…again.

2/17 Air Cav

Hey, Sparks, Do you know how many 80 year olds would love to be your age? Of course, they might want a different body to go with the age.

sj

Might as well join in this convention of geezers. Hola from deep in Mexico in my RV. Doing things before I start drooling and craping my pants…oh wait, I sometimes already crap my pants. But, not drooling, yet. That makes me better off than a essentially disbarred lawyer in Fla.

Sparks

That’s a thought there 2/17 Air Cav. I still have the body of a…well, I still have a body and I’ll just leave it at that. 😀

2/17 Air Cav

No matter, Sparks. The cemeteries are full of people who would love to have your body, if only for one more day.

Twist

This is one of the things I love about TAH and the Vet community. A lot of civilians wouldn’t understand why I feel a closer bond with other veterans that are 20-30 years my senior than civilians that are my own age. My wife used to complain that my late Father-In-Law (who was a Vietnam Vet) would spend the entire time that they visited talking to me. My Mother-In-Law once remarked that in the 40 years that they had been married he never loaned one of his guns to anybody, but every time he came over he offered to let me borrow one to try it out.

OWB

Hmmm. Am thinking that it might be time to do some preliminary planning for a DC gathering in about a year. Given that the lefties are so fond of anniversaries and reenactments, this week next year will be the 50th anniversary of their little sashay to the Pentagon across Memorial Bridge. They did a superb job (yeah, that sarcasm) nine years ago on the 40th anniversary. Well, except for the part about them being outnumbered by patriots who behaved civilly while facing down the lefty slobs. Yeah, not only do they stink, they leave a lot of trash in their wake.

Just a thought.

RICHMOND, Va. (CN) – A disabled veteran claims in court that an entirely unwarranted siege at his home by law enforcement officers caused him to try to kill himself.

Buffalo wings, spicy chili, lukewarm draft beer and March Madness at the pub.

I went into the men’s room and saw a staggering pile of Phil Monkress overflowing the toilet.

I tried to flush it but it was backed up. The Phil Monkress flowed over the bowl.

It was horrible. I hustled back to the bar and had a few shots of whiskey to clear the sight of all that Phil Monkress from my mind.

I may need therapy.

Time will tell.

Hack Stone

Political candidate is attacked by the daughter of his opponent. Yet again those Republicans cannot act civilized. Whaaaaat? It was Demicrats? How could that be?

Ex-PH2

It’s Chicago politicians at their finest, Hack Stone. It harks back to the days of Mayor John ‘Boss’ Daley’s (Richie’s daddy) elections when the campaign workers would threaten voters with no trash pickup if they didn’t vote for Hizzoner.

Navy: 8 sailors aboard USS Eisenhower injured when cable breaks during E-2C Hawkeye landing

http://pilotonline.com/news/military/local/navy-sailors-aboard-uss-eisenhower-injured-when-cable-breaks-during/article_3c6c930d-3784-5ec0-84b2-966b4b38cfc1.html

Once again, we see that the flight deck of a U.S. Navy aircraft carrier can be one of the most hazardous places to work in the entire U.S. military.

And some people actually begrudge the Sailors who work up on the flight deck the relatively small amount of extra flight deck/hazardous duty pay that they receive every month.

Godspeed to the injured Sailors.

Semper Fidelis.

Ex-PH2

They are lucky to be alive. I wish them all a speedy recovery.

One thing leads to another. I was reading today’s feel-good stories and used the link. From there I jumped to another WV site and saw that West Va University just won its 18th NCAA Rifle Championship. Whaaaa? Guns? NCAA? Yep. There are some 32 schools (DI, II, and III) that field teams. Included among them is MIT (ssshhhh!)There used to be many more teams, as you would guess, but academia and guns don’t mix well nowadays. And, yes, for DI schools there are scholarships. The teams are coed, although the sport is categorized as male. So, if you, your son, or your daughter is interested in a college scholarship that is politically incorrect, get to plinking!
