Headlines From The World Of Greasywrench...

we wish we could read. I have a terrible problem with insomnia and I was up all night again so I thought I'd have a little fun with Jasc Paintshop Pro. Here's something I did to pass the time. There wasn't a hell of a lot on TV tonight anyway. View the image full size or you'll miss my ridiculous comments. I just love fucking with the Tabloids.

PMS-NBC Pontificates .... again

Posting this viral video is appropriate since it's Memorial Day. Once again we have another profound example of the thought processes from the shit-stains of PMS-NBC. Here's douchebag Chris Hayes blathering on about what is a "hero". He claims to not want to "disrespect or desecrate" the memory of our fallen Veterans and then he does exactly that by suggesting that calling them heroes IS the very justification for war.

Anyone who signs on the dotted line and joins our Armed Forces knows the distinct possibility exists they could someday end up in a far away combat zone. One doesn't have to be Audie Murphy or Chesty Puller to be considered a hero. By putting themselves in harm's way all Men and Women of our Armed Forces qualify. For some reason the progressives of PMS-NBC are unable or unwilling able to grasp this simple fact. Just my opinion...

A Safe Memorial Day

Have a safe and sane Memorial Day and always remember its meaning - to honor the sacrifices made by the Men and Women of our Armed Forces who paid the final price for ALL of America. God rest their souls.

RevRearEnd Al "Not So" Sharpton Strikes Again!

Ani-gif by Greasywrench

The RevRearEnd Al Sharpton is at it again ginning up racial animosity between white and black folks. And before ANYONE accuses me of racism because I made this Chimp graphic of Al, remember how many times George W Bush was called and drawn as a Chimp by the far-left douchebags of America. Now on to my post...

This morning on American Thinker I read this story about Al Sharpton and his race hustling pandering ass is once again making reckless and incendiary accusations. Sharpton actually had the balls to claim Republicans are trying to "wipe out black people". Coming from a man who is directly responsible for the deaths of several White and Hispanic people the statement is breathtakingly stunning in its hypocrisy. Then again it is Al Sharpton AKA an American democrat. Need I say more?

The fact that Sharpton made this absurd statement isn't the issue here. Al Sharpton says ridiculous and racist shit all the time and has made a career along with a wonderful living out of it. The problem is he gets away with this crap over and over and no one in the far-left dominated media calls him on his shit. EVER!

Remember - this type of self-righteous puke and drivel is coming from a man who has blood on his hands. He's already arguably responsible for the deaths of eight people at the Freddie's Fashion Mart fire via his agitating and anti-semitism in Harlem. Al also played a large part in the Crown Heights Riots that ended in the death of Yankel Rosenbaum by stirring up anti-semitism and racial animosity. And as he often does, the RevRearEnd Al just washed his hands and walked away from these deaths and claimed he played no part. Does anyone see a pattern here? Al is a blatant fucking racist and yet the democrat media never calls him on it. He's even been rewarded with a slot on PMS-NBC.

More of Al's Douchebaggery: I guess I could/should throw in the Tawana Brawley case for good measure. This is the false rape incident that brought Sharpton to the public's attention in 1987. Al knowingly supported a phony story of rape and racism (again) that was later proven in court to be fraudulent. As always, Al just walked away with no accountability or apologies. When he was ordered to pay damages by the court for falsely accusing local prosecutor Steven Pagones of playing a part in the abduction and rape Al still was unrepentant. Lawyer Johnnie Cochran and others payed the $65,000.00 fine for Sharpton. Once again Al crawled away with no consequences.

Over and over in his career as a race-hustler and far-left pimp Al Sharpton has been responsible for death and destruction and time and time again has never had to pay a price. Sooner or later there WILL come a time when Al Sharpton DOES pay. How it will happen is anyone's guess. Perhaps someone will get tired of his shit and put a bullet in his fat head. Maybe he'll go just a bit too far and bite off more than he can chew and finally be legally held accountable. But - justice is coming for this scumbag and it can't come soon enough for me. This fucker is despicable and I eagerly await the day when his karma bites him in his big fat ass. Until that day comes I'll just have to create some more animated gifs and cartoons.

Brett Kimberlin Wins Teabag Award!

Note from editor - AKA Me. "The Teabag Award is not to be confused with the Douchebag Award. The Douchebag is usually reserved and awarded to celebrities and politicians. The Teabag Award is specifically given to especially egregious Anti-American trash. We hope that clears things up" - Greasywrench

Until a few days ago I had never heard of far-left domestic terrorist, convicted bomber and felon Brett Kimberlin. Now he's become quite the progressive rock star and celebrity chic. And because it's Award Season and in keeping with the tradition of all left-wing celebrities shit-stains it's time to give Brett an award. Here on The World Of Greasywrench we strive to be fashionable ... so let's give Brett a prize....

Introducing The Inaugural "Teabag Award"

It's not only an award: The handy Teabag is not just an award - it also doubles as a convenient beverage container. The Teabag Award's handy size allows for convenient travel and simple storage. Air travel carry-on is also no problem. And - it can also hold more than just Tea! It makes quite a lovely Kool-Aid container. Because of its light weight it can also be used for camping and backpacking. The "Teabag" also comes with a handy flexible "drinking straw" for quick sips in tight places. All in all this is one hell of a useful beverage holder and we think Brett Kimberlin will find a use for it. Drink up Pal.

If You Control The Bully Pulpit... You Get To Bully!

Click to enlarge

Recently the topic of bullying has been quite popular. Here's a wonderful example of bullying masquerading as teaching. BTW, I took the liberty of modifying the image featured here. I couldn't find a picture of Tonya Dixon-Neely on the Web so the Hitler cartoon I just downloaded will have to do. I confess to editing the blackboard. Was I wrong?

I've been reading this story for the last two days, and as with many stories concerning the blind admiration and submission for Omama it pisses me off! I'm talking about North Carolina teacher Tonya Dixon-Neely who berated  fifteen-year old student Hunter Rogers for daring to argue with her about the legalities of criticizing Berry Omama AKA "Dear Leader" ( North Korea anyone?).

What may be done to remedy the situation?
First: I suggest this ignorant excuse for an educator learn the difference between the words "criticize" and "threaten". It is NOT against the law to criticize a sitting president. If that were the case, most of the Lame Stream Media would have been jailed four years ago. A healthy course in honesty would also come in handy. Using lies (no one was arrested for criticizing GWB) to advance one's personal political viewpoints seems to be a favorite tactic of the progressives. I.E. when you can't win an argument on facts just dazzle em with bullshit.

Second: using a teaching position to promote and advance personal political views is nothing short of propaganda. Our schools and grades are falling and failing in many cases because of the advancement of progressive agendas in lieu of real education. What happened to teaching the three R's and other sciences? Dixon is a bully and needs to STOP with the progressive talking points in class. Save it for the Union meetings or fire her ass!

Third: after listening to the rant of this teacher I've come to the conclusion SHE is the one who needs further education ... in civics and English. Could she be an undereducated affirmative action teacher who is in way over her head and out of her league? Just asking since she doesn't sound very well educated or articulate to me. The young man she argued with pwned her ass in my opinion. And - he could teach this instructor a thing or two about the First Amendment. I wonder just what other misinformation she's blathered on about in her classroom rants? After all - this is the only incident that was recorded.

This "teacher" has subsequently been suspended and is NOT responding to phone calls. Hiding out much?

Happy Anniversary Lynda - Love Rich

Thirty years is a long time. When we were married I had my doubts if I would even live thirty more years, much less be married that long. Thanks for the memories. If we stay married another thirty years do you know what that'll mean?

We'll be pretty damned old!

RIP Robin Gibb

I just read that Robin Gibb is dead. This is another sad reminder that so much of what I enjoyed growing up and as a young man is now fading fast. Anyone who hangs the "Disco Singers" title on the Bee Gees doesn't know shit about Pop music. These guys were out making great music nearly fifteen years before they ever cut the Saturday Night Fever soundtrack (which was a great album) or any other disco type music. Sad day for Pop Music. Now there's only one brother left. And yeah - I considered Andy Gibb a Bee Gee too, so there were four Brothers Gibb all those years ago.

 Lynyrd Skynyrd - T For Texas

If Lynyrd Skynyrd ever could be said to have peaked, it was right here, with this performance, and this song. This is one of their songs that seldom got airplay. In my opinion the "day the music died" was October 20, 1977. Sorry Buddy Holly and sorry to the reformed Lynyrd Skynyrd. You're great but....

Angry Janitor Complains About Turd (Prank Phone Call)

You have to listen to the next one. For a long time I thought this was the Jerky Boys. I'm not sure who it is now.

Hanoi Jane Fonda? Screw You Yahoo...

for your "big story" about Jane Fonda and her seventy-four year old body. With all the classy older women who still remain in Hollywood, Yahoo features this traitor?

I wouldn't piss on Jane if she were on fire. She STILL owes a sincere apology to the Vets who served in Vietnam. And take a good look at her face if you click on the link. More likely than not she needs a bead blaster to get her makeup off at night.

I clicked on the link because I had a feeling from the backside-shot it was Hanoi Jane. What I really wanted to read were the comments. And yes, despite what Yahoo driveled on about - Jane IS a hated woman in America! Read the comments on the story link and you will see what I mean.

It's Official!

This Blows!

I spent all day long yesterday trying to run down a problem in my Son's computer. I build and repair the damn things to save some money and ensure that control of the content of what's on the machine is my Son's and his alone. When you buy a P.C. from Best Buy, Target, Walmart, etc they're always proprietary. IOW, the O.S. and whatever software packages pre-installed are often dependent on Microsoft and Dell, HP, etc... and other vendors - so I build my own.

Anyway, the computer would start up... shut down. Start up... shut down. All this would happen in the course of a couple of seconds. I have computer parts laying around the house from all of my former builds so I do have plenty of components to use in diagnosing. I pulled the machine completely apart to clean it out. Tested the power supply, CPU fan, Rom Drives, etc...

So - I finally decided to get a can of compressed air to clean out the Motherboard, fans, CPU, heat sync and other internals that are critical to good operation. Compressed and canned air must to be used to clean these things. You can't just run down to the local gas station or auto shop and use one of their air nozzles. Shop air is full of moisture which is a no-no to any electrical component. Canned air contains propane so it will boil as soon as you spray it. That way electrical goodies won't get wet and be fried.

So I buy a can of compressed air for TEN DOLLARS and what do I get - four or five good squirts and then jack-shit! Ten fucking dollars for damn near nothing! Which leads me to another point - when did American made begin to mean "good enough" instead of "outstanding"? I've used canned air before and cleaned out entire systems with one can. This one lasted four or five squirts. WTF! Maybe I'm being a whiner here but something is wrong with this scenario. Okay - I'm done bitching.

BTW, the problem with the computer was the power button in the front of the case that turns the computer on. There's a dead short in it. Now I have to worry if I'm gonna go out and throw ten bucks down for a power button that will only last six months. Sometimes I just can't win.

Update: On the advice of Alltech Computer Supply in Lomita, Kalifornia, where I buy my computer parts, I switched the reset pin connector with the power button pin connector on the motherboard and solved the power problem. Now - instead of using the power button to boot the computer I just hit the reset button. Thanks Camille.

Steely Dan - Turn That Heartbeat Over Again

Great song from a great album. The song takes me back to what was probably the last year of my life when I had no sleazy politicians to obsess over, no worries, no problems, no complications, blah blah blah.... then I had to grow up.

Where were you in Seventy-Two?

Eastern Sierra Trout Season

You can say what you want about Kalifornia. But there is one fact that can never be denied - we have some of them most beautiful back country anyone could ever imagine. It's just too damn bad this lovely State is so full of ... of ... of ... Kalifornians!

Anyway - it looks like I'm gonna miss another year up in the Eastern Sierra. I haven't been up North for the Trout season since 2006. Then again, the season just began and I've got until the end of October. I'll just have to wait and see. But for anyone who wants a vicarious thrill here's a link with some great photos.

I've fished most of the major and many of the smaller lakes and streams in the Sierras over the last thirty-five years and had very good success. As a young man I used to backpack on my vacations and spent time in the back country of Yosemite. In 1978 a good friend and I hiked into Merced and then Washburn lakes and absolutely killed it catching Brooks. Click here to see some nice photos of the Merced and Washburn area trails. Here's a slideshow I made of my last trip in 2006 with my Son and my Buddy Kevin (RIP)

At one time (1992) I had my picture on the "Wall Of Fame" at the Fern Creek Lodge in the June Lake Loop holding a five pound Rainbow brooder I caught with a Rapala floating minnow. Great looking fish - lousy eating. I should have released it. I'm not one of those guys who preach "catch n release". That's up to the individual. I fish because I enjoy being in the mountain environment and I love the taste of Trout. But I'll never keep anything over pan-size again. The brooder I caught had flesh with the consistency of mushrooms. I guess that's the trade-off for catching and eating hatchery raised Trout as opposed to wild. I'll take the wild fish anytime. Anyway, check out some nice fishing links below.

One Absurdity Deserves Another

Click to enlarge

In honor of the ridiculous cover on Newsweek declaring Barack Omama the "First Gay President", The World Of Greasywrench presents our equally ridiculous and "edited" version of  "The First Gay President". 

By proclaiming Omama "Gay" and picturing him with the absurd halo above his head, Newsweek, along with most of the democrat media have now officially lost the last few shreds of credibility they may have once had.

I've often joked that some asshole in the media will sooner or later picture Omama walking on water, healing the blind, or raising the dead.

After this - I'm not joking anymore.
