About Joel

You shouldn't ask these questions of a paranoid recluse, you know.

So you want “medical professionals” more in bed with the Fedgov than they already are?

Give a man serious power over other people, and to some extent he will start trying to force those people to live the way he wants them to. I’d do it, and so would you, and probably neither of us … Continue reading

It’s for your own safety.

Just keep telling yourself that while you watch your daughter being molested. Or…you can contemplate it while sitting in jail. A Clarksville mother allegedly lashed out at airport security agents Saturday when they attempted to pat down her teenage daughter. … Continue reading

Larken Rose on “Limited Government”

Seen here. SCARED OF FREEDOM There are a lot of people who consider themselves freedom advocates, who, with righteous zeal and indignation, vehemently rail against the injustice, corruption and oppression “government” continually spews forth. However, many of those same people, … Continue reading

“The sky is falling! And it’s all THEIR fault!

I don’t know why I’m spending so much time writing about the Big O.  He’s a foul, lying, theft-fueled lowlife politician, and more than that we really don’t need to know. On the other hand I love a good snark, … Continue reading

Forget the Lair – I shoulda built an ark!

It’s been raining without pause for two hours, and shows no sign of slacking off.  I thought it rained a lot yesterday afternoon, but that was just a little drizz compared to this.  Most monsoon rains are just squalls, but … Continue reading

*SNORT* He said “Manual Hummer Cocker”…

I’ve been enjoying what Ian’s doing with his Forgotten Weapons site.  He’s getting better, smoother, faster with his informational videos, such as the most recent on the Mannlicher 1901 carbine.  Old oddball firearms really aren’t a passion of mine, but … Continue reading

J’Acuse!

Running a little low, I looked for some matches last time I was in a town. Yeah, I also carry Bic lighters but when you just want to start a fire (I was nowhere near Arizona at the time!) nothing … Continue reading

They’re sad pandas. Real quiet, too.

So if I hooted something about crushing your enemies, driving them before you, and hearing the lamentation etc., that probably wouldn’t be polite discourse. Would it?

Don’t Be Evil.

You guys really ought to take this down and come up with a slogan you actually originated. You’re pulling money out of the pocket of the person who thought it up. Sincerely,Joel* *I posted this review at WND, but since … Continue reading

I’ve already got mine, Barry.

Just so you know. And may I say, Barry – if this is true – that it’s about frickin’ time. We’ve been expecting you to pull this shite since the moment you were inaugurated. Probably should have done it while … Continue reading

If only symbolically, this is a depressing day.

So maybe today the last Space Shuttle will launch and do…something expensive. Maybe tomorrow, who knows? Depends on the weather. And parts breakage. And whatever. What is certain is that when it goes, that’ll be the last Shuttle launch ever. … Continue reading

Does your mouth move when you Tweet?

Did Obama lie about White House salaries in Twitter town hall? Sounds like a silly question, doesn’t it? If the subject came up at all, the answer is probably… DUH! During his Twitter town hall, Barack Obama wanted to let … Continue reading

I guess you can’t un-notice a bimbo.

Is it bad that I never heard of … um … that broad. With the trial, and the dead kid. Yeah, that one … before yesterday? I think it must be bad. Because in hindsight, it felt really good. I … Continue reading

Oh, yeah. I’m livin’ the dream now…

It’s summer in the desert. Also the Monsoon has well and truly begun. All that means if you want to get some hard work done you’d better get it done in the morning before it gets too hot and/or stormy. … Continue reading

Hey, guys. Looks like we were wrong when we made fun of that Libya war thing.

It seems the Big O is just trying to save us all from Hitler. Yeah, I’d doubt it too. But it was a republican senator what said it, so I guess it must be true. Huh? I mean, a republican … Continue reading

War On Guns – Notes From the Resistance Radio

While I’m plugging stuff, check out David Codrea’s new radio show. It’s pretty unique (in my experience, at least) to hear a real gun-rights advocacy show on broadcast radio.
