For this Cat Blog Friday...

... a kitten pondering a nihilistic universe. The results of the last election got you down, kitty?

*sigh*

Cheer up, kitty, it's Friday.

Mary Tyler Moore: On Her Own, Single And Singular

Sadly, Mary Tyler Moore died yesterday. She's with Chuckles the Clown now.

RIP Mary.

Pink Horror

I bet you thought that "Pink Horror" referred to the walking vaginas at the recent march in Washington D.C.

;)

Idiot March

Faith Goldy of TheRebel.media reports from the Women's March in Washington, DC, protesting Trump's election.

Where were these mental pygmies during the Clinton years?

Holy moly! The depth of herd mentality-driven drivel that I witnessed on this video is beyond belief.

Got Yours?

What are we going to do about high fashion now?

Oh, the angst!

Save Leia

Disney Negotiating With Carrie Fisher's Estate To Bring Back Leia

I do wish Disney comes to an equitable agreement with Fisher's estate and bring her back because Leia belongs in the Star Wars saga.

I don't think it would be strange that Leia's role, which began as a hologram, also ended as one in the scheme of things.

Katherine The Great... White

She's Back: Katharine, A Great White Shark, Now Swimming Off Florida's East Coast

What Katherine looks like in my mind:



The good news for me is that she's not in the Gulf of Mexico anymore and on the other side of the state.

Airport Shooter Converted To islam, Identified As Aashiq Hammad Years Before Joinning Army

From Shoebat.com:

Photo Evidence Reveals Ft. Lauderdale Shooter Is A Muslim Terrorist


But for purposes of not making obama's legacy look bad, "better to portray this atrocity as white Hispanic Alaskan mental Iraq war vet gun violence.”


Now, move along.

Welcome Back, Winston

BUST OF FRIENDS: Donald Trump Has Asked For Bust Of Winston Churchill To Be Put Back In The Oval Office After Obama Replaced It With Martin Luther King

I guess there wasn't enough room in the Oval Office for two busts.

We'll Be Back

I'm definitely not calm today so please don't tell me orange is the new crimson...

Yet Another Lone Wolf?

When will we tire of the "lone wolf" descriptor and finally realize we're awash in packs upon packs of "lone wolves" all having islam in common?

Ft. Lauderdale Shooter Used Alias ‘Aashik Hammad’ And Recorded Islamic Music In Social Media

If zero can get away with saying race relations are better than ever, then he can get away with avoiding the condemnation of the real culprit here, which is, once again, islam.

Black On White Crime

The recent hate crime on the disabled white man by four evil blacks evokes the horrific crime of ten years ago perpetrated on an innocent white couple by five evil blacks.

Ten Years Later: Christian/Newsome

Chances are you don't know about this horrific crime from Knoxville Tennessee, because the news was kept as a mostly local story. Why inflame the nation with a story that doesn't fit the preferred liberal agenda of white on black atrocities.

This unequal media coverage, whether it be a black vs. white cause, or a liberal vs. conservative one needs to change.

Tampa's First College Football Championship Game

This is how Clemson fans treat Alabama fans...

It's all in good fun as long as Bama wins.

Roll Tide!

UPDATE: At game time, as Little Big Town sang the National Anthem, Challenger, the bald eagle (Haliaeetus leucocephalus) flew over the Raymond James Stadium, while the 6th Air Mobility Wing Honor Guard jets flew overhead... love seeing the jets in real time from my carport.

It's different every day.

Cubular Birthday Greetings

Happy. Happy. Joy. Joy.

It's my birthday and I can do anything I want...

Um, I want chinese food... and world peace, yes, that too.

Wait...

UPDATE: Why does GOOGLE have a birthday motif today? I have no idea.



No *sigh* I have just found out it has nothing to do with me.

Yeah.

Nevermind.

Advance Apologies

Saw the above graphic on Facebook...

Reminds me of a quote from Pradeepa Pandiyan...

“Either offend or represent, don’t be a spectator.”

Yeah, what she said :)

A Fresh Start

I haven't been this revved up about new beginnings in, oh I don't know, about 8 years :)

Carpe annum.

Happy New Year!

Wishing you all a new year filled with blessings and joy.

2016 Heroes

There are many heroes who will be missed in 2016. Here's one excerpt by Leif Reigstad from the Texas Monthly People We’ll Miss 2016 :

Bretagne the Dog
1999 — June 6, 2016


"We tend to define our lives by moments of achievement or emotional highs. Once we’ve reached these zeniths, there is an inevitable drop-off, a loss of identity that can make our lives seem like nothing but a struggle in search of another big moment. Think of a parent sending its youngest child off to college, or a novelist who has just finished his or her pièce de résistance. It can be unbearably distressing to finish something. This dilemma is particularly poignant for people who were part of something a little bigger than the rest of us: an ex-world leader spends his post-presidency painting sub-par portraits; a former star quarterback whittles away the rest of his days in a vacuous mansion, occasionally doing spots for local TV commercials peddling used cars or above-ground pools.

It makes perfect sense, though, that Bretagne is the rare exception to the post-heroism struggle. Bretagne was always good at finding things when others couldn’t. During her long career as a FEMA-certified disaster search dog, Bretagne and her handler, Denise Corliss, responded to a number of the nation’s worst disasters, including Hurricanes Katrina and Rita. But her defining moment came in September 2001, when she traveled to New York City with Texas Task Force 1 in the days following the terrorist attack on the World Trade Center.

For ten days after the 9/11 attack, then two-year-old Bretagne sniffed through the wreckage working twelve-hour shifts. She and the other rescuers found only human remains. But Bretagne became a sort of therapy dog at the scene, as responders would often pet the golden retriever and share their personal stories with Corliss. They spoke of loved ones, friends, and family they were searching for. For a few moments there amid the mass destruction, they found some comfort and strength in Bretagne.

Bretagne retired six years ago, but she remained a fixture at the Cy-Fair volunteer firehouse and continued to be an important member of her community, making public appearances and regularly visiting an elementary school in Waller County. “Each week, she would visit a first grade classroom and listen to young readers, providing a non-judgmental ear, and soft paw,” the department said in a press release after Bretagne passed away in June. “Her calm demeanor and warm heart helped the young and old through their own difficult moments.”

Bretagne was widely recognized for her service. In 2014, she accompanied Corliss to the “Hero Dog Awards” in Beverly Hills, California. In 2015, she was honored by a dog charity and invited back to New York City for her sixteenth birthday, where she enjoyed a ritzy hotel room, a gourmet burger, toys, treats, and a personalized welcome message on a billboard in Times Square. She was believed to be the last living rescue dog who responded to 9/11.

Once back in Texas after her New York trip, Bretagne’s age began to catch up with her. She slowed, stopped eating, and became anxious. On the night of Sunday, June 5, Corliss slept alongside the dog, a touching role reversal that undoubtedly provided Bretagne herself some comfort and solace. The next day, Corliss took Bretagne to the vet to be euthanized.

When Corliss arrived at the vet with Bretagne in the back seat of her car, the pair was greeted by a line of firefighters gathered to honor their beloved Bretagne. The dog trotted slowly, stoically, past the firefighters as they raised their arms in salute. When Bretagne, this time in a casket draped in a Texas flag, exited the vet’s office later that afternoon, the firefighters again lined up wearing black armbands. Members of the rescue unit served as pallbearers and walked with Bretagne for one last time, a fitting send-off for a hero."

*sniff* it sure is dusty in here *sniff*

We Won, Not You!

Obama's Ulgy Bid To Snub Voters And Tie Trump's Hands

Under obama, democrats have lost :
13 Senate seats
69 House seats in Congress

and on a local level, dems have lost:
12 governorships
30 state legislative chambers
900+ state legislative seats

That’s the worst showing for an incumbent president’s party since the Richard Nixon years, due to the taint of Watergate.

Yet the king of denial still doesn't get it.

Debbie Reynolds 1932 - 2016

'I Want To Be With Carrie': Last Words Of Hollywood Legend Debbie Reynolds, 84, Who Died Of A Suspected Stroke, Just One Day After Her Daughter Carrie Fisher Died Of A Heart Attack

Unbelievable, isn't it? To quote Yogi Berra, "This is too coincidental to be a coincidence."

I hope they're together now, doing their witty, razor-sharp schticks, and enjoying eachother's company. My best wishes go out to their surviving family members and friends for their loss.

RIP Carrie and Debbie.

WOO

Deepak Chopra Doesn't Understand Quantum Physics, So Brian Cox Wants $1,000,000 From Him

You can't make money if nobody buys your BS. As such, "woo" that has zero paying customers is more like just ordinary batshit crazy.
