Bomb the bastards for about 444 days

 I am of an age where the Iran hostage "crisis" is a clear memory. Jimmah Carter's failure to wreak retribution remains, to me, a sad moment in United States history. 

I have no issue bombing the Mullahs straight to Hell where hopefully they are subjected to the same abuses they dream for the seventy-seven virgins. I hope dogs piss on them and pigs eat their bodies. 

I don't care of we declare war or not. Congress hasn't been called upon to exercise that option since 1941 and generations of American military have died in Korea, SE Asia, and the Mideast anyway. 

I say sink every Iranian ship and speed boat. Down every aircraft. Destroy every base, fort, bunker and any other site we even suspect is part of the government or Iranian military. 

Iran shouted "Death to America" for more than forty years. They spread terror throughout the World.

Eventually the bear gets sick of being poked. 

And while we are dishing out retribution we can pack up our wares and close our bases in Spain and Great Britain. If you don't want us then we will leave. And good luck to you both when the Russians or the Chinese or even the Germans come calling. Mr. B says it better.

I Can Only Laugh

 You may remember I had jury duty back in January. I finally got my $30 check in the mail yesterday. The whole thing is a perfect examp!e of government efficiency. *

No, the fault lies not with the county government. They did their job. They mailed my check JANUARY 28th. 

It took the post office THIRTY-FIVE DAYS to deliver a letter less than four miles. 

Read that again, 35 days to go four miles. 

I weep for our future.

* yes that is sarcasm

Did anyone mention you should not take the brown acid?

How About That?

 I made the book promo post at Sarah Hoyt's place. My blog buddy Fuzzy Curmudgeon not only has s book mentioned, he Also has given my book some great promo. Thanks to both.

What? You haven't bought Hoosier Flats yet? There is an Amazon link over there on the right. Or just press on the link in the previous sentence. 

Fuzzy has a bunch of books you should Go read.

Ungrateful Curs

It seems most European countries are more terrified of their Muslim immigrants than the US. Once again we will do the dirty work in stopping Iran from getting and using nukes. As for Great Britain, screw you. We beat your ass twice and saved it two more times. There won't be a third time. In addition, we took in Harry and Megan. 

As for France, we would not be a nation but for you. We paid you back twice over. I spit in your direction. 

Monday Gripes

 Ugh, we have a couple inches of snow on the ground. I'm ready for winter to go away. Fortunately, it looks like warm, but rainy, weather is heading our way. 

Fellow Hoosiers are not surprised we got snow; it is sectional week. Of course sectionals have been meaningless for three decsdes. but it always seems to snow during the week of the high school.basketball tournament.

After nearly five decades we finally did something about Iran. We should've bombed the country back to the stone ages when they took the hostages. 

All you appeasing Democrats can go @#$% yourselves. and before you go shouting War Powers Act you probably should read it and shut up.

Stomp stomp

 

Why is it appropriate, you ask? Because it is the greatest march in cinema. Why wouldn't you expect a march today

get it while its hot

In rural 1930s Indiana, a fifteen-year-old boy becomes the least-suspected bootlegger in Polk County.

What begins as a way to save his family’s farm pulls Matt Wyatt into a world of loyalty, violence, and impossible choices — where one wrong run changes everything.

Hoosier Flats: A Novel of the Greatest Generation spans the final days of Prohibition through Pearl Harbor and World War II — a coming-of-age story about duty, family, and the cost of growing up in hard times.

I’m proud to finally share it.

If you enjoy historical fiction with grit and heart, I invite you to grab a copy — and if it resonates, please leave a review.

A Boomer Thing

 Back in the day, whenever I made a mixtape (or later burned a “mixtape “ CD),  I always took great pains to insert the clip from the Lynyrd Skynyrd album One More From the Road where Van Zant shouts “What song do ya want to hear?”.

It amused me to no end.
