(A.K.A. Non-Original Rants)

  • Okay, I just don't get it…..

    Cee Lo Green changes the words to John Lennon’s ‘Imagine’ when he sang it on New Year’s Eve and the world goes totally insane.  I’m surprised the Progressives didn’t call for re-education and a verbal lynching a la Tracy Morgan  at the blasphemy of stating that ‘all religions are real too’.  But the National Anthem… Continue reading

  • Polenta vs. Corn Mush

    As near as I can tell, polenta and corn mush are the same thing–just one is pretentious because it has an Italian name.  I did a side-by-side using a tube of Trader Joes polenta and a tube of Yoders corn mush.  The only difference is the polenta didn’t mash quite as much when cooked in… Continue reading

  • Shhhhh…. librarian at work…

    I took a couple of days off between Christmas and New Years and have undertaken a Labor that would have made Hercules weep with fear–alphabetizing the library.  This includes the integration of both of our rather extensive reading collections.  So far Himself and I don’t have a whole lot of duplicates, but as much room… Continue reading

  • Kudos and Prop Props for Evyl Michael Robot.

    One of Evyl Michael Robot’s (TheHolsterSite.com) holsters is going to be a major prop on the series In Plain Sight.  As an added bit o’ cool, it’s based on one owned by Old NFO.  Since he is a professional, he’s making it useable as well as camera-worthy, which is a lot harder than it sounds.… Continue reading

  • At least Argentina is blatant about it….

    So Argentina has ‘nationalized’ their newspapers.  Big deal–at least everyone knows and acknowledges what they did.  Our media and newspapers have been the willing tools of the government for years–hiding and just downright not reporting on issues, such as Obama’s qualifications (or not) to be president, the John Edwards kerfluffle (had to be broken by… Continue reading

  • Waste in the government

    Okay, it’s a given, but Old NFO has a bunch of stuff pulled from Sen. Tom Coburn’s Wastebook 2011.  And I thought of this scene from the movie ‘Dave’ (embedding disabled so you’ll have to follow the link).  So why can’t the government catch a clue or figure out that all of these things are… Continue reading

  • A football rant, kinda….

    Okay, I’m not what one would call a football fan.  I’ll watch a game if it’s on, I know the rules, etc., but haven’t been caught up in the game since ‘Da Superbowl Shuffle’ of 1984.  But apparently last night the New England Patriots, led by Tom Brady, beat the Broncos, led by Tim Tebow. … Continue reading

  • For Old NFO–getting into the Christmas spirit….

    This might help if you can forget the palm trees and Hawaiian Santas for a few minutes….  For some reason Linus’ speech never fails to jump start my Christmas spirit. If that didn’t help, maybe this?? Continue reading
