pesky browser issues

I just lost a whole post. Not sure how, but I guess I hit the wrong key, and suddenly, poof.

Beats me. And then when I published this little post, it too went off into the ether. I don’t get it. So I did a PC scan, did a reboot, cleared the caches and reloaded Firefox. At least this time I was smart enough to copy the whole post to the clipboard. So haha on you, evil Windows gremlin.

The gist of it was, the alternate domain name of this blog has been renewed. So you can get here using barkingmoonbat.com as well as barking-moonbat.com. Or you can make a bookmark, which is even easier.

And now it’s lunchtime. In the lost post I wrote a taste tempting paragraph about the yummy dish of burritos I just made. I’m too hungry to write that all again, but try some enchilada cooking sauce and some Rotel diced tomatoes and chilis on yours next time. It really makes a nice difference.

hanging in there, help wanted

I’m getting a lot more work lately, which is fine by me. And it’s time to get the garden going. And the wifey has had quite a bit of time off from her job lately too. All of this adds up to me not having the time to devote to this blog that I usually have. Sorry. Life has to come first.

Pieper also has some pretty strong demands on his time these days too, getting the house fixed up and so forth.

Doc leads a busy life, and I’m grateful that he can post when he gets the chance.

We’re doing what we can, and none of us is getting any younger.

What I’m saying is, I’m amenable to taking on another guest blogger or two. I know quite a few of my regular BMEWS readers really stay on top of the news and frequently have comments to make. So here’s your chance if you want it. Send me an email. I am actually checking the email almost every day, and responding to nearly everyone. We’ve got several new members I haven’t had time to introduce, so a big welcome to them, and I’m sure you’ll get to know them better as they make comments about this or that.

New Villagers Join The Mob

Three new BMEWS members so far this month, and we’ve got a week to go!

Joining our maddened crowd of Villagers With Torches™ are RedneckGeezer, Jimbo 49, and Greendragon. Yayy!!

( Mark Matis, Cents, and Dr. Gonzo joined in January and February. Don’t want to overlook them. Welcome aboard the crazy train! )

We’ll do what we can to make posts worth commenting on. Or they can always just put in an unkind word about leftists, commies, hippies, Obama (but I repeat myself), excessive government (still repeating myself), PC, or those jackwad jihadis.

Custom avatars! Why yes, you can! Anything not pornographic or grossly offensive is allowed. Downsize a simple graphic to 80x80 and upload it in the My Account area over on the right sidebar.

Makes Me A Sad Panda

Fox News’ O’Reilly Admits: Conservative Media Is Us, And Op Ed Pages Of Wall Street Journal

I was watching the bloviating buffalo, Bill O’Reilly, yakking it up with my favorite TV guy, Charles Krauthammer, on how their channel Fox News, and the 2 or 3 pages of the Editorial section of the Wall Street Journal, were pretty much it when it comes to center of the road/Conservative journalism.

I guess all those thousands of right wing web sites count for nothing. The blogs, the forums, the social media pages. The entire “VRWC”; the so-called tongue in cheek Vast Right Wing Conspiracy.

I suppose we’re all just preaching to the choir, talking to each other in a great digital circle jerk. No outsiders welcome or allowed. And maybe that’s the truth. And a shame. From Michelle Malkin to American Thinker to Instapundit to Bill Whittle to Atlas Shrugs, and Jihad Watch, and all the countless medium and small opinion outlets in between. Shooting the breeze to each other while the rest of the world ignores us.




Speaking of shooting the breeze ... now that the VRWC is pretty much done with the latest anti-gun story, that of the ATF banning the green tip, steel core, M855 5.56 NATO military surplus cartridge because it MIGHT penetrate body armor when fired from an “AR style” pistol ... this one has been kicking around for several weeks now, right? ... anyway, NOW that the internet - the invisible unfathomable unknown impotent and inconsequential internet - NOW that the right wingnut gun happy internet has chewed this story to death (rmeinder: get those ATF letters in by March 16!!), now it’s breaking news at Fox News. And Townhall.com is running an EXCLUSIVE.

UPDATE: ATF calls stripping ban exemption for AR-15 “green tip” ammunition a “publishing mistake.”

On Friday February 13 at 4:00 pm, the Bureau of Alcohol Tobacco and Firearms released a proposal to ban commonly used M855 “green tip” AR-15 ammunition under the guise of law enforcement safety. The same day the proposal was released, on a Friday of a three day holiday weekend, ATF opened up a shortened 30-day period for the public to submit comments about the new regulation.

But it turns out, ATF has been working on a ban of AR-15 “green-tip” ammunition for quite some time and has already issued the ban in its new, 2014 Regulation Guide. For reference, ATF Regulation Guides come out approximately every ten years.

This is the ATF fucking with you. Like the IRS and the EPA, they are another overpowered out of control branch of the government, operating without oversight and with impunity, with a high likelihood of being used as a revenge tool by the current regime. Pretty much any rifle bullet is going to penetrate all but the heaviest human wearable body armor, “steel penetrator core” (ie a bit of needle 3/16” long).  They do this kind of crap for no other reason than to give apoplexy to all the gun people, ha ha ha ha. But back to my post; now that us “little fish” have worried this story to closure, the “big fish” are claiming original ownership, and even the TV news guys are discovering the story. So it seems to me, still smarting after last night’s diss. Hey O’Reilly - who the heck do you think watches your show in the first place? It sure ain’t HuffPo readers!

Now Playing: Fair and balanced debate on WH’s proposed AR-15 ammo ban

It looked like the fix was in. But the ATF says it was just a misfire.

As the ATF faces a firestorm of controversy for seeking public comment on a proposal to ban a popular type of bullet, critics last week claimed the agency may have decided in advance how it would rule.

They pointed to the ATF’s latest “Firearms Regulation Reference Guide,” released in January 2015. The guide, curiously, did not contain an exemption for popular “.223 M855 ‘green tip’ ammunition” that was included in earlier guides. Without that exemption, the ammunition is illegal to sell. (The change in language was first noticed by Fox News contributor Katie Pavlich at Townhall.com.)

So did the ATF already make up its mind? 

No, the agency claims. The ATF has responded that the reference guide is not legally binding, so the bullets have not actually been banned yet, and has apologized for leaving the exemptions out of the guide. They say it was an innocent mistake. And the proposed ban is apparently still under consideration.

Right. Whatever. It’s just kind of a kick in the nadgers for so many of us citizen journalists and pundits in the Samizdat Networks to be so quickly and easily dismissed by Big Media, even when that Big is really Little “faux snooze”, and we know damn well that they farm Drudge, Insty, and several others for headline fodder all the time.

Oh, and one thing I really do hate about Fox News is that they force a “fair and balanced debate” even when one shouldn’t exist. Some things are right, some things are wrong, and if you can’t see the difference then your eyes should be donated to the Cornea Fund for others who really do want clear vision.
And this is one of those situations. If it shoots out of a gun and doesn’t explode, then it’s fair game and hands off. End of story.

Welcome Dr. Jeff

I mentioned this in a comment, but it deserves a welcome post all by its self. Dr. Jeff is the latest BMEWS admin.

Good choice Drew and peiper. I’ve been trying to get wardmama on board. I won’t stop, think we need a female opinion/influence.

Needs Better Embed Code

Yes indeed Chris. I’d send you an email, but I can’t find your address, and it isn’t on your new web site anywhere. I know you come by here once in a while.

Got to rebuild the embed. The Horizontal one displays your entire page but not the comic; you can keep the page, all I want is the comic.

Your “old school” new embed script displays the comic, but without any scrolling. Oops. The link to your page works on either embed, but I’d prefer my readers to look at the comic from my blog.

Oh, and the comments don’t work on your page yet.

Keep working on it.

Dusting things off here in the back room

My goodness.

There are something like 16 people who have the power to write posts here. Admins, Super Admins, and Posters. Posters? I’m pretty sure I’ve never assigned anyone that category.

And some of them still visit. Some have stopped by within the month.

Rancino, you can write stuff. Miss your comments and links, buddy, even though you come by all the time. And thanks again for your support. So how about it? Want to sound off about anything?

Somnambulist57, you can write stuff. Wait, who? Not sure I know who you are.

Mr. Christian, of course, can still write stuff. Remember Mr. Christian?

Severa, bless her heart, can still write stuff. If she would ever stop by. It’s been a few years now.

John C and Tim C (no relation) can make posts too. At least I think they can. They’re in an old old category called Posters, which I think might be left over from when the back room here had that little forum.

Ronald Reagan’s Ghost not only can post, but he has an email account on the server here. How about them apples? Golly gee, remember him? Takes me back to Yellowdog days, and Tannenbaum, OCM and Annoying Little Twerp. Times gone by.

OCM remains the one and only truly banned forever twice member. Sorry Guy, I wish it didn’t have to be this way.

Guess I should vacuum and dust more often.

Sgt Schultz

Home now, but only to eat and change. Then it’s off to work. Then to sleep. And tomorrow to work.

So I really won’t be back here until late Sunday, or perhaps Monday.

At which point I’ll only be looking forward. Or, as Sgt. Schultz used to put it, “I zee nutting! I zee nutting! Nutting!!!”

Oh, and my mother saw the cucumber bit. “Aaaaaaaaaannndrew!!” Gee, thanks for that.

Just so you know ... mom is always watching. Always.

Blogger, Explain Thyself

To: Drew
From: Peiper
Subject: Ach, Crivens

What’s with Christopher? Weird? Wierd? and cucumbers used as ...

at least it was below the fold with a warning.




To: Peiper
From: Drew
Subject: Ach, Crivens

I just saw that. Jumping Jesus on a pogo stick, WTF is wrong with that oaf? Damnation, I have a bit of life for a couple of days and he starts acting like a 10 year old. AGAIN.

Wassmatta, he never ever saw the cucumber trick? Is he new to online porn just this week? Do we get the ping-pong balls and the baseball bats next? That’s all out there too, and has been for decades. String of pearls dude. String of pearls. It’s even an animated .gif these days.

Same goes for the “topographic map”. I feel like I’m dealing with a little boy who has just discovered how he pee-pee works, instead of a 60 year old man. I can only be grateful he didn’t put in any semi-naughty snaps of his wife or his sisters this time. Seriously, WTF.

Even the redhead with the machine gun. You do know that the weapon is an MG42 right? The one the Nazis used to mow down tens of thousands of Allied troops during WWII? Sure, it’s just a tool. Sure.

And he didn’t even downsize the picture to fit and then use a link for “embiggenification” as is our style. Much less give any credit to Oleg Volk who took the picture - and it’s OBVIOUSLY a Volk photo - the guy who does all those super pro-2A pictures for women and firearms.

I’m really getting tired of his passive/aggressive behavior. “Oh look, I’m being naughty, haha, whatchu gonna do? Neener neener!!” Tiring.

With all the terrible news stories out there, with all the rancid political stories out there, with all the glorious art, beautiful nature, and wondrous moments in life out there, he has to go out of his way to put up offensive juvenile crap like this nearly every time he posts. I didn’t mind the “I won a chess match” stuff, and the chess problems were interesting. AND I was really starting to appreciate how he was stepping up and posting more while you’re sick ... but he just couldn’t resist poking a stick in my eye, hoping for a reaction. Grow up.

Do I have to ban this jerk AGAIN?

Son of a bitch.

So I’ll just delete both those posts, and edit the other one. And hope somebody, somewhere, gives him the spanking he wants so badly.

UPDATE: Friends, Romans, Countrymen, people who leave comments; lend me your thumbs! Up, or Down?

Paying The Bills

FINAL UPDATE: PLEASE, NO MORE MONEY THIS YEAR

THAT’S HOW GENEROUS BMEWS READERS HAVE BEEN. The Blegging is over; expenses are fully covered. FULLY. You guys are bloody fantastic.

If you still want to toss a quarter in the tip jar, that will be set aside for next year. And I do keep a pretty careful accounting of funds and expenses, just in case some snoopy tax dude thinks this is some kind of job. It isn’t. I don’t clear a dime on this blog. In the very, very rare case where I have too many donations one year, I roll them forward and sometimes even delay asking for help until I need it. So we’re good for 2014. 100% great in fact.

Golly, I’m nearly feeling woozy. It’s either the generosity of my readership, or the acetone I used to do a final wipe on the windshield. I go with the generosity and let Sally say it for me ...

UPDATED UPDATE: The outpouring of support from the BMEWS readership has simply been tremendous. I am overwhelmed. Surprised. Amazed. Impressed. Verklempt, even! We’ve had more people Give A Click this year than ever before. I guess we’re doing something right after all.

I’m going to float this post at the top for today into tomorrow, then let it sink downwards. I don’t want to harass or bleg too much, but I do want to keep up a big running THANK YOU to those who have, and the tiniest reminder to those who might.  And come Monday, I’ll shut up about this for a full year.

Ok, I have to go try and clean my windshield today. I’ve got my Sunday job to do, cleaning offices, so I’d better be able to see to drive there. Maybe I’ll take photos and compare 3 or 4 solvents at a time.

UPDATE: One HUGE round of applause for them what put in a contribution. We are humbled, and most unctuously grateful. A little help, a lot of help, any help at all, it all helps a lot. Thank you so very much!

It’s the time of year once again when all the bits and pieces that make up BMEWS show up at my door, looking for money.

Server fees, domain registrations, a couple of widgets. That sort of thing. Actually, BMEWS is going to cost a bit less to run this coming year, since the lovely widget we had for mapping out folks online is gone. That company went under, and they shut down and vamoosed months ago. And still owing me at least half a year of service too.

Meh. What can you do?

So this hobby blog costs just under 80¢ per day. A bit steep, but I’ve got unlimited storage capacity and unlimited bandwidth. Which is probably a bit excessive, but I’ll never run up against a wall.

In the meantime, I’m trying to cut whatever expenses here that I can. And give thanks once again for all my readers who have helped out in the past.

some comments from bmews readers in 2013

Things don’t always work out as planned.  I originally wanted to post these over two days.  Wasn’t possible for a number of reasons.

I wanted to do this or something like it long ago, for one reason or another I never got around to it.  But it was always in the back of my head.

I’m not sure if those of you who post your comments here, are fully aware of just how good they are.  OK, so there a few that aren’t home runs. But over all, you really do make an impact. 

OK so .....  I have to give a fellow I call The Bmews Tiger, and who posts in comments as, ARGENTIUM G. TIGER , total credit for this end of year post from me, to all of you here.  It was a comment he made at the start of this year 2013, that finally shoved me into gear thinking okay ... I can not put this off or ignore it anymore. 

Over time, I have been educated and entertained by your comments in equal measure. So it’s fair to say I appreciate you, and I know Drew does as well. 

With the Tiger’s comment that got me going, I started saving things you folks had to say, with the idea of ending the year with a salute to you.
I wanted to do it over two days, but between the storm and pc trouble and personal matters, yesterday never happened and so all I collected are here.
There are many comments I never got to. I read all but my time and health and wife’s health and hours I keep just don’t always allow for me doing all I might do.  Or want to do.  So believe me, I am aware there are lots more that could have and perhaps should have been included here. 

So ok, here we go. Again my thanks to the Tiger and to all of you. Here’s the comment that got it going.

Congress has already pissed me off multiple times, and it’s only the first day of the year.  Posted by Argentium G. Tiger

The networks are like politicians.  They have different titles and claim different philosophies, but they all crawled out of the same sewer.
Posted by grayjohn

Each time our elected representatives put forth and pass an amnesty (this will be the 3rd), we reinforce the idea that a person can come here illegally (a criminal), hide outside the laws of work and finance (not paying taxes), and eventually gain citizenshipAs with the debate on gun control - this is obfuscation of the core issue. Why do people break the law to come to the United States? Because, they will eventually become citizens.
Why do our elected representatives continue to ignore our wishes on these subjects? Because they are the ones in control - not us.

It’s the damnedest thing. No matter how successful they may be, no matter how many millions, billions, trillions get spent on Special Programs to lift Certain People up, no matter how many extra chances and opportunities are provided, no matter how much the general culture shifts to a Black perspective (ie all things Black are cool and desirable), it makes no difference, and their hate festers more and more with each generation. That boil is going to burst at some point, perhaps soon, and the result is not going to be pretty. And if it doesn’t burst, it will be lanced from without, and that result could be far uglier.
It’s lose-lose, not win-win. And it is not our fault at all. Posted by Drew458

Upon the passing of Mrs. Thatcher, among much else, LyndonB said;

This comment from Red Five was in reply to a post about pc head teacher who wrote parents at a school demanding that the kiddies be available for a school trip to a muslim museum or some such place.  She even threatened suspension for children who did not go, and btw … there was even a charge to go.  Common sense prevailed and the teacher was overruled by school authorities, who took much flak from parents. At a guess?  Someone probably threatened a law suit.

Viewing “religious artifacts” at an Islam workshop? What are they going to see, Arafat’s kaffiyeh? Leon Klinghoffer’s wheelchair? The remnants of an Israeli bus after a suicide bombing? Rubble from 9/11? A picture of The Rock? A burka?

Vilmar moved on to his own blog some time ago, and Allan ran this place alone until his sudden and unexpected death partway through 2006. We all miss him. A lot. Even though he is gone this site will always still be more than a little bit his. We who are left to carry on the BMEWS tradition owe him a great debt of gratitude, and we hope to be able to pay that back by following his last advice to us all:

1. Keep a firm grasp of Right and Wrong
2. Stay involved with government on every level and don't let those bastards get away with a thing
3. Use every legal means to defend yourself in the event of real internal trouble, and, most importantly:
4. Keep talking to each other, whether here or elsewhere

It's been a long strange trip without you Skipper, but thanks for pointing us in the right direction and giving us a swift kick in the behind to get us going. Keep lookin' down on us, will ya? Thanks.
