I don't have much use for Queens.


Not any of them. The borough. The English one. The ones that want to get married. The drama ones.

They tire you out with their bullshit.

Don't get me wrong. I don't mind the tirade or manifesto or screaming blow up. But I don't have much time these days to indulge people.

    Lem,

    Si usted lee este mensaje, por favor, dame una señal de algún tipo. Estoy en una misión muy importante: Misión Salvar al soldado Lem. Es decir, para recuperar Lem Angele y su levedad y regresar de manera segura tanto a la patria del blog Althouse. Nuestra inteligencia nos dice que está detenido y probablemente torturado. Por grandes matones culo gordo. La apuesta no podría ser mayor. Cualquier señal va a hacer, Lem. Hasta que se complete la misión: ser fuerte y saber que estamos haciendo todo lo posible para que librarse de los matones terroristas con los grandes culos gordos.

    ¡Dios los bendiga y buenas noches!

    su amigo y humilde servidor,
    Meade

    PS: Lem, si es necesario, patear ese viejo chocho, Aridog, en los testículos.

    Bueno.

    ¿Quién sabe lo que trae el mañana
    En un mundo sobreviven pocos corazones?
    Todo lo que sé es lo que siento
    Cuando es real, lo mantengo con vida

    El camino es largo
    Hay montañas en nuestro camino
    Pero subimos un escalón cada día

    El amor nos levanta a donde pertenecemos
    Donde las águilas lloran
    En una montaña alta

    El amor nos levanta a donde pertenecemos
    Lejos del mundo de abajo
    Hasta donde los vientos soplan claras

    Algunos se aferran a, 'solía ser "
    Vivir sus vidas mirando atrás
    Todo lo que tenemos es aquí y ahora
    Toda nuestra vida por ahí para encontrar

    El camino es largo
    Hay montañas en nuestro camino
    Pero subimos un escalón cada día

    El amor nos levanta a donde pertenecemos
    Donde las águilas lloran
    En una montaña alta

    El amor nos levanta a donde pertenecemos
    Lejos del mundo que conocemos
    Cuando sopla el viento claras

    Pasa el tiempo, no hay tiempo para llorar
    La vida que usted y yo, una vida hoy

    El amor nos levanta a donde pertenecemos
    Donde las águilas lloran
    En una montaña alta

    El amor nos levanta a donde pertenecemos
    Lejos del mundo que conocemos
    Cuando los vientos soplan claras

    El amor nos levanta a donde pertenecemos
    Donde las águilas lloran
    En una montaña alta
    El amor nos levanta a donde pertenecemos

    Tú y yo tenemos recuerdos
    Más largo que el camino
    Que se extiende por delante

    Dos de nosotros usando impermeables
    De pie en solitario en el sol
    Tú y yo persiguiendo papel
    Obtención de la nada en nuestro camino de regreso a casa
    Estamos en nuestro camino a casa
    Estamos en nuestro camino a casa
    Nos vamos a casa

  5. I think Chip is right, one gimlet, just made with a pint of gin.

  6. Maybe the shanty Irish lawnboy hired a Mexican.

    ReplyDelete
  7. I don't speak Mexican. Can somebody translate for us true blue Americans?

  8. It's like he is going 'all in' or something.

    ELB sought to preserve the evidence in case it disappeared from whence it came.

  11. Back when I used to indulge I would post song lyrics over there... so it could be an homage, parody, both. Who knows.

    ReplyDelete
  12. I have been carrying this idea for a logo for Lem's in my head so long I can see it clearly.

    It's frankly better than Troop's

    Can anyone suggest an inexpensive graphics program for Mac? They used to give away MacPaint which might work.

    ReplyDelete
  13. ELB sought to preserve the evidence in case it disappeared from whence it came.

    This is wise. There should be a permanent record or perhaps an ongoing series at Troop's called "Shit Meade Said".

    ReplyDelete
  14. That is correct Lem. I preserved it only since I figured it would be quickly deleted. I am guessing Merde got drunk and went on Google Translate.

    Sé fuerte, mi amigo. Conejito del polvo de la reina, perro Aérea y ndspinelli son tres de los más grandes de los matones más gordo assed. No temas. Pronto se le rescató. Una vida mejor en Internet que le espera.

    The only thing I get from this is Meade has us all living in his head. He has it bad.

    ReplyDelete
  16. I have been carrying this idea for a logo for Lem's

    A Red Sox font would be ideal... it would drive Trooper nuts.

    ReplyDelete
  17. You know I'm just messing with you Trooper. Just like you do with me and my liver... lol.

    When I first encountered Trooper over there, Trooper was so personable I was taken aback a little. I didn't know what to make of him.

    I had never meet anybody on line so aggressively friendly. So I would not respond for a long time until i got a better handle on my own sense of where Trooper was coming from.

    It was a good thing he was patient.

    ReplyDelete
  18. so it could be an homage, parody, both. Who knows.

    Closing in on Lampoonery, A written attack ridiculing a person, group, or institution.

    From my perspective, Meade's recent behavior doesn't resemble aggressive friendliness or anything close to homage.

    On the Fetid, Bleeding Pustule thread, Rhhardin cuts to the heart of the matter.

    ...the usual solution is just ask (Lem ask) Meade not to post on your blog if you don't think it's good for the blog. Say you're looking for a different kind of insight in comments...It works if the commenter has any character. Give it a try.

    ReplyDelete
  19. WTF? Geez. In their headz.

    Lem,
    I know you want to like them but they obviously have gone 'round the bend.

    Please don't go follow them. :)

  21. Seattle Slew won the Triple Crown on this date in 1977, and myself and better half got hitched that same day. My old man was a big horse player. We made sure there was time between the ceremony and reception to watch the Belmont, which was historic that day. He was very appreciative. As was everyone else, really. When we scheduled our wedding we just knew it was Belmont day. Even non fans watch the Belmont when the Triple Crown is on the line.

    ReplyDelete
  22. Lem...I apologize for any and all insulting things I have said to or about you. My anger gets the better of me once in a while. Some people just make me nuts...and nuts is the right word for it. You are not one of those people and I realize you have to deal with all of us...jerks like me especially. You do so with grace. Please know that.

    I appreciate your blog and intend to remain a supporter...even if I am not present much for a while.

    ReplyDelete
  23. Please don't go anywhere, Ari.

    If you do, and Sixty stays away, I really do feel that Meade will have succeeded in taking something away from us.

    I have a friend who always says to me "You know what they can never take away from us?" And I answer: "Us."

    ReplyDelete
  24. Great post by Darcy at Lem's.

    Check it out.

    ReplyDelete
  25. Darcy...I'll not be "gone" just more careful what conversations I join. I will no longer engage Meade...hence my "TILT" meme of late. Right now I feel comfortable here at TY's because of TY himself...ball buster and all that. Besides he solved my summer shirt dilemma ... pretty funny (to me) that now I actually revert to what my dad wore...but it is what it is :)

    ReplyDelete
  26. Hawaiian shirts are the best. Especailly these cotton ones. In a hot humid summer night they rule.

    I have about 100 of the now. Some of them have to be retired but I hate to give them up.

    ReplyDelete
  27. This is what I'm wearing this summer.

    ReplyDelete
  28. Aw crap, windbag. I clicked on that link.

    You look good. Waxed chest or shaved?

    ReplyDelete
  29. Darcy, cover your ears for a second. Thanks.

    Not joking here, but I think part of Meade's problem is that he hasn't had a good fuck in too long.

    Okay, you can listen now.

    He's angry and starts drinking around dinner time, and keeps it up until late at night. His posting seems to show it. Maybe he can't have a decent conversation at home, or maybe he's frustrated, or who knows what else.

    ReplyDelete
  30. Oh look. Inga just showed up at Lem's. Right around cocktail time.

    ReplyDelete
  31. Inga (here) or Annie (at Turley's) or whatever...she thinks no one can track her puppetry. All the while using that same photo that I am sure she thinks is lovely. And it just may be to some folks. Not my call.

    ReplyDelete
  32. Opps. I meant Inga at Lem's, not here.

    ReplyDelete
  33. Hey BTW Trooper...what is your current email address for regular folks? I've got about three different ones now and I'd like to clarify my contacts list. If it is something you'd rather not share, that's cool too. I noted the comments about the gmail, versus whatever sign ins and how that effects your identify, as if we'd not know who was whom anyway.

    Just asking, 'cause I am "dick" as well as just curious. Ppbbbfffftt.

    ReplyDelete
  34. Email me at jimdolan2@live.com

    That is my regular email address that I check all the time.

    ReplyDelete
  35. Waxed chest or shaved?

    This is a much more efficient method.

    ReplyDelete
  36. Ordered some Hawaiian shirts, can't wait to wear them.

    ReplyDelete
  37. I couldn't find the shirts on sale for $20. Did you find them, rc?

    ReplyDelete
  38. I think that was a sale they had last week.

    Now the good ones are around $39.95

    I prefer to pay more to get 100% cotton.

    ReplyDelete
  39. I got a couple of Christmas ones for $20 last week.

    Nothing says you are an idiot like wearing a Christmas Hawaiian shirt on July 25th.

    ReplyDelete
  40. Glad you'll be sticking around, Ari.


    ReplyDelete
  41. Trooper answered it. And I'm with him, 100% cotton is the way to go. I usually wear them in hot weather.

    ReplyDelete
  42. Silk hawaiian shirts are nice (the choice for formal occasions in Hawaii), but they seem to have an affinity for red wine stains.

    ReplyDelete
  43. If you would like to see Inga unhinged, go to the Fetid Bleeding Pustule post @ Lem's from 6/10. She went postal last night.

    ReplyDelete

  46. I notice that Inga urged Lem to close his site and go back to the Evil One. It is obvious they are pulling out all stops to get Lem to close up shop. It drives them crazy that he has a great blog with a bunch of great contributors.

    Now Meade is in every post stirring up trouble. Plus posting in Mexican to rile Lem up.

    They really are the lowest of the low.

    ReplyDelete
  47. I am sorry but I won't be going over to Turley's site. I had enough with liberal law professors. I hate professors to begin with and law professors even more.

    Sorry. Not my cup of tea.

    ReplyDelete
  48. Trooper, No sorry or explanation needed. To each their own.

    ReplyDelete
  49. That guy Brat in VA is a professor.

    ReplyDelete
  50. Haha! Michael.

    I deleted Meade on my post for a couple of juvenile comments insinuating something about blake and me.

    He seems a little desperate.

    ReplyDelete
  51. Desperate. Yes, that's it.

    He'd be better off drunk.

    ReplyDelete
  52. I appreciate your blog and intend to remain a supporter...even if I am not present much for a while.

    Thanks Aridog.

    ReplyDelete
  53. He is very desperate. He and now Inga are over there chumming the waters trying to upset Lem and get him to quit. He is now on every post and not in a good way.

    He will make a few innocuous comments and then stick the knife in.

    ReplyDelete
  54. Well, at least with no one responding to him his maliciousness stands out. That's a good thing.

    ReplyDelete
  55. I don't understand why the sheer juvenility of Larry's behavior doesn't embarrass a law professor at a reasonably legit university enough for her to tell him to stop.

    ReplyDelete
  56. I think he does it when it can pas by. You know. When she is passed out drunk. Sunday nights. Dinner time. Now it is in the middle of the day.

    Things are getting worse for them.

    ReplyDelete
  57. That explains the photo at TOP of her on her back in the front yard.

    ReplyDelete
  58. Wow!

    The return of Inga the Sock Puppet!

    ReplyDelete
  59. I deleted Meade on my post for a couple of juvenile comments insinuating something about blake and me.

    Score! (Well, for me. For you, em, sorry.)

    What I thought was interesting was after dropping a load, he then responded in what someone who didn't know him might think was a genuine post.

    I would've deleted that, too. But then, I'd nuke everything from space. (It's the only way to be sure!)

    ReplyDelete
  60. Unrelated, I was also gratified to discover that Father Fox doesn't respond to Ritmo either.

    Bruce, if you're still reading, I left a big message on your Tex Avery thread.

    ReplyDelete
  61. Also, FWIW, it's ridiculously easy to set up way better things than blogs these days.

    There is plug-and-play stuff that combines blogging, chatting, twitter, facebook, pinterest, etc.

    Just sayin'.

    ReplyDelete
  62. You have my attention, Blake. Examples?

    ReplyDelete
  63. I wanted to delete that last comment too, but even though I know it was made in bad faith (horrible, awful, mocking faith), I resisted because I'm stubborn. I hate that he gets the satisfaction of any reaction at all.

    But those two posts had to go. Sorry, blake. lol

    ReplyDelete
  64. That is Lawnboy's method. He drops in reasonable posts and then goes batshit. They there are either deleted or he deletes them himself. All the is left is all the people going crazy and going after him.

    ReplyDelete
  65. Dammit.

    There goes my Seduction Cred.

    Well...oh, yeah? You're...a stinkburger!

    (I think they call that "negging". You should be totally turned on by me now.)

    ReplyDelete
  66. Haz--

    I was thinking of something like Elgg, which is pretty simple but has lots of interesting plug-ins.

    But that's just from the hip. There are a lot of interesting options.

    ReplyDelete
  67. I'm trying to!

    Wait, me an Darcy or me and Haz?

    ReplyDelete
  68. OK, just as an example, I put this up in 30 seconds at my old RPG website:

    kingdomrpg

    This is all default settings, no plug-ins, etc. But it's really damn easy. You can link in your twitter and facebook feeds, have posts that are more active be up top, front-page comments, all that crap.

    This is Dolphin, not Elgg, but they're just two of many, many options.

    ReplyDelete
  69. If you go to krpg and click on the little blue button on the left that'll take you to a more full-featured demo of Dolphin.

    It's a little cluttered. I would crop most of it out, probably.

    But I ran krpg for a friend of mine who moved her community from Compuserve, and this was 10 years ago, and ran it on my own little box from my house.

    Tech has advanced a bit since then. Used to take hours to set up, and this is literally seconds.

    (Customizing is an ongoing affair but that's the fun part.)

  70. But I ran krpg for a friend of mine who moved her community from Compuserve, and this was 10 years ago, and ran it on my own little box from my house.

    I didn't really follow all that technical stuff there, but I did like Dr. Johnny Fever on that show. Was Compuserve a suburb of Cincinnati? Maybe over the line in Kentucky? Anyway, I always thought Bailey Quarters was hotter than Jennifer Marlowe.

    ReplyDelete
  71. Sure, why not.

    Agreed on Bailey.
