If you were ever a fan of the old Lampoon or the original SNL, there’s a pretty good documentary that’s been on HBO or Showtime called “Drunk, Stoned, Brilliant, Dead The Story Of The National Lampoon”. Stuff 40+ years ago that they did, so politically incorrect, and funny. Good stuff if you were a fan back then.

STOP COMPLAINING! Write to the WSJ.
Big article today, Friday, 5-11, on Big Man Rahm
Running for 3rd term as mayor. He's 58 yrs old,
Raised $7.1 Million, and election will be Feb. 2019.
All you insiders, with the juicy stories on this blog,
please let the nation know what The King Tut is all
about.

This blog is good for local venting, but the national media
has absolutely no idea who Rahm Emanuel really is.

That's some good stuff.

It seems the paper folks desperately want unions and (you motherfuggers better be listening or else!) subscribers.

God bless 'em, but being a journalist does not mean that you work for a corporation.

Being on TV does not make you credible.

Oh, the old school will insist that it's about how a report cites quotations or how you this is dotted or that is dashed. But that is not what journalism is about.

Journalism is about reporting the best information you can, giving fair shakes, and (here it comes) not bending to pressure, influence, or access.

SCC started this wave and I am more than happy to surf. Let's go.

They also ran a parody ad of Volkswagen when vw said its cars were so tightly built they would float. The ad said " if Ted Kennedy had driven a Volkswagen he'd be president now"-it was later forced to be removed, but as a subscriber, I got a copy with the ad intact. Glad Kennedy will not be our next governor-they are like a bad rash that won't go away- and I know that will piss off the st ignatious alumni, but I have a functioning brain and am not forced to vote democratic because some old fuck or a parent tells me to.

It was a very nice Police Recognition Lunch today. Many deserving Officers receiving awards. One thing that made my stomach turn was see that Police Hater Lori Lightfoot there. You know she didnt pay for her ticket. I wonder what she though of the Officers who received awards after shooting offenders using baseball bats as deadly weapons.

She probably hired someone to do this.

I realize that half the Starbucks are good to the police but we need use extreme extra caution when responding to any potential Starbucks call for service from now on. I'm sorry but Starbucks corporate believe anyone is welcome and they can do or say or stay as long as they want even if it's homeless camping there from open to close. Do not be the next cop sacrificial lamb who enforces any infrraction on Starbucks property. The company and media will throw you to the wolves! Any job of service at any Chicago Starbucks immediately call a supervisor and do not engage especially if anyone involved is of African American persuasion or Muslim faith, have all complaints completed filled out in entirety and then have conplaint sign and have them sign it voluntarily in front of your worn body camera: Do not let Starbucks put you in a trick bad even if they are cool with us , take thousand precautions on any Starbucks call of service. Unless you live to be on Twitter million times and have c r s generated and have your reputation ruined for ten minutes of simply doing your job. I pray for all police officers they can get through each day safely and without nonsense and media and hateful politicians and citizens who don't know what this job entails. Get to retirement day by day avoiding any minority confrontation especially one to do with liberal losers and Starbucks embracing homeless people camping there for 12 hours. Sorry not our problem. It's the new Starbucks policy! Let the shit and unwashed thugs smoke their weed and sell it in Starbucks and fornicate in their bathrooms And have the bums take an hour to shower in their sink Sorry. This is what Starbucks wants! Btw funny thing is the two black guys who started this whole movement failed to mention that they have past felonious criminal histories but they will never be reported in CNN fake news or any where else. Them having past warrants for felons means nothing. I'm so happy Starbucks gave them a free asu university education ! How about they just offer them a job as a cashier at Starbucks but that would assume they would show up for work without being stoned on weed. I won't spend a penny more at this business.

Scraped windows on the fly. Some believed they were unsafe, a sure coffin in an accident. Took air cooled bug off market because of engine noise. 😔

For the same reason they closed comments quickly in 2008 when the Heller versus DC decision was made and their editorial declared the need to repeal the Second Amendment..

Because even their own readers wouldnt set idle in the face of their ever increasing idiocy anymore.

See, their "journalism" is getting SPANKED in comments sections, and they know it.

For a time, they couldnt resist the clicks that comments sections brought them(and the ad revenue that comes as a result).

But now, with actual sales/subscriptions dropping off badly, the clicks do not command the revenues they once did.

Additionally, the culture control once exerted is literally lost when comments sections destroy the articles nefarious and egregious premise.

This creates a lose lose for them. So they close comments trying to regain their preacher podium, not realizing that their last throes are futile.

News, reporting, journalism, is changing...returning to TRUTH actually mattering. And they are fighting a losing battle trying to maintain their ability to lie with impunity.

The commie dems took control of media, much as the whigs did in their way and day. The D party is meeting the same fate and for much the same reasons now as the (W) party did.

Thats why.

Had an air-cooled VW. Great traction. Once the fuel injection system got fixed, started right up. The heat wasn't that bad. You had to run it one gear lower to spin the fan fast enough to push the heat up front. And if you didn't the thing got cold as an icebox real fast. And if you used the windshield washer a lot, your spare tire would be flat.
