Audacity of Truth

Vice President Joe Biden had his “oops” moment Wednesday speaking in a 49er-crazed SF when he told a crowd at a city political fundraiser that “the Giants are on their way to the Super Bowl.” - SF Chronicle, 1-18-12
Friday/Weekend open thread
Mini-rant: You never know how much email you’ve responded to until you start cleaning out your sent folder. UGH.
I’m kickin’ the weekend off with a video that always cracks me up when I see it. I wasn’t crazy about the song, though. It’s Greg Kihn and his song “Jeopardy”:
I wonder how many married male readers of this blog had visions of marriage similar to the one’s Greg’s character displays in the vid – before they got married? 
Update: BTW, on the heels of the recent story we heard about concerning a sword-wielding hero comes this one:
A man toting a 3-foot sword apparently met his match when he broke into his ex-girlfriend’s apartment: The woman’s roommate grabbed a sword of his own and sliced the intruder, police said.
The roommate, a sword collector, fended off the ex-boyfriend, who was cut on the arm, police said.
Elvis Javier Polanco, 18, was treated at a hospital and charged with burglary and aggravated assault, Beaufort County sheriff’s Capt. Toby McSwain said. He said Polanco broke a window and climbed on his friend’s shoulders to get into the apartment.
The roommate, Louis Delgado Hernandez, disarmed the intruder while the woman called police, McSwain said.
Skyler the Weird writes in response:
It shows before you break into a home you should make sure a relation of Don Diego de la Vega isn’t living there.
Heh.

Previously on armed conflict…….
911 operator: 911 what is your emergency?
Ex-GF: We need the Police and an ambulance. There’s a burglar bleeding out in my apartment!
911 operator: Is he armed?
Ex-GF: No not any more!
911 operator: Make sure he’s not armed, stay calm and wait. Police will be there soon.
Boyfriend: What’d they say!?
Ex-GF: …to make sure he’s not armed!
boyfriend: (seen in these photos- http://www.westerncircle.org/start.html) Well, okay! WOOOOOAAACCCKKK! (followed by more sceaming)
Just then a knock at the door and it’s Jack Bauer’s heretofore unknown baby sister, Jill. “Police maam! Let us in!
Jill: Why are this mans arms over ther…..nevermind!
To be continued…….
Now who didn’t see this coming?
Is there a reason the leeto yello sword dude on the LEFT has but one eye?
Hello, my name is Inigo Montoya, you stole my girlfriend, prepare to AIIIEEEEE that smarts!
Did it say what kind of sword he used to fend off the intruder? A well sharpened Scottish Claymore, for example, would pretty much have cut right through the arm with ease and if dull, would have broken it easily enough. An impressive and intimidating two-handed weapon.
I like the graphic of the two smilies fighting!
Not me – I was afraid she would come to her senses and change her mind! And I had already paid the mahari (bride price) for her!
In my wife’s tribe (she is from Africa) it is still customary to pay a bride price to the family before marriage. In my case, it was one cow and one goat (by tradition both female), two blankets and six kitenge cloth.
I never get tired of telling that story….’cause it’s 100% true!
Great story Mwalimu. I’ve been married 17 years and I’m STILL payin’!
Actually, I’m quite happily married. I’m not allowed to be unhappy.
No. Seriously. Everything’s cool. We courted for 7.5 years and it was basically a formality to tie the knot. No regrets. She’s got ‘em all.
No, but the reception in the video brought back some scary memories.
Actually, that’s an exaggeration – it was just a minor fight. Only two cops had to be called.
Fortunately, I eventually escaped alive.
And now for something completely different….

Personally, I hope the FBI hangs this anti-Semetic turd out to dry. But he is a filthy-rich Hollywood Democrat, so fat chance of that.
“Quo Vadis” is on Turner Classic Movies right now. Peter Ustinov’s portrayal of Nero is hands down the best I’ve ever seen. I can never imaging Nero without thinking of this performance. Insane, self absorbed, weak, whiny, treacherous, self indulgent, vicious and dangerous, Ustinov should have gotten an Oscar for his performance.
Oh George, what will we do when you’re gone?
Read the whole thing, he’s right on the mark. What are the libs going to do when they no longer have a boogie man to blame everything on in a immature, simplistic, childlike way? Grow up? Nah, they’ll come up with another simplistic villain, can’t actually grow up and recognize that the world is more complex than that and that the US isn’t responsible for all ills.
Refering to Severian’s post:
Actually, it ran into reality on September 11, 2001. Since then, Democrats have chosen to turn their back on reality. They have purged members of their party (such as Lieberman) who dared to remind them of their responsibilities.
If the MSM and their Democrat pets win the presidency in 2008 (and if they don’t lose Congress – both very big “ifs”), we can expect a return to the 1990s-style foreign affairs. al Qaeda and their ilk will once again grow as they did during the first Clinton administration.
Can someone explain why so many boneheads/bots refuse to use the caps key at the beginning of a sentence, while simultaneously trying to convert folks that grasp the reasons for punctuation?
Sorry, but whenever I hear about Greg Kihn, all I can think about is this song.
