Well those photos were interesting but apparently that isn’t the half of it:
Sneed hears rumbles President-elect Barack Obama’s chief of staff, Rahm Emanuel, is reportedly on 21 different taped conversations by the feds — dealing with his boss’ vacant Senate seat!
Via the Campaign spot.
This would explain the milk carton bit. To paraphrase Arthur Dent; This must be a new usage of “No contact” that I haven’t heard of before.
Question what does the number of bids on my home offered tech services and the amount of dollars the SEIU spent on its charitable efforts for low income housing?
Both equal nearly one:
Union-founded nonprofit spent zero on its charitable purpose in two years
The Captain states an uncomfortable fact.
One has to wonder how the SEIU could have remained in the dark about its charitable arm for so long, unless it was a willful blindness and the unit had some other purpose.
I don’t wonder at all I think they as implied by the intercepts blog followed the rules of Larry in the stooges short Income Tax Sappy.
Moe: How much did you claim for charity?
Larry: $5,000
Moe” Who did you give the money to?
Larry: Me.
Moe: You?
Larry: Sure, charity begins at home.
Can’t find the clip online so you will have to settle for the python camel spotting clip again.
You know you would think that winning an election would be enough for some people , apparently not:
Investigators say arson caused a fire that badly damaged the former church of Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin late Friday night and into early Saturday morning.
The blaze at the Wasilla Bible Church broke out as a group of women made crafts inside. It is not yet known if the church was targeted because of Palin’s affiliation. Palin’s spokesperson, Bill McAllister, issued a statement on her behalf after she visited the church on Saturday.
“(Palin) told an assistant pastor that she apologizes if the incident is in any way connected to the undeserved negative attention the church has received since she became a vice presidential candidate on Aug. 29. Whatever the motives of the arsonist, the governor has faith in the scriptural passage that what was intended for evil will in some way be used for good.”
The Captain being his level headed self is not willing to state if this had anything to do with Mrs. Palin candidacy. In my opinion he is being very generous.
Gateway Pundit notes that the folks at Democratic Underground are in his words: “having a field day with this”.
Michelle Malkin however links to a fund raising page to help rebuild.

A few thoughts in the middle of the mess that is North Central Mass these days….
The troubles of a crook in Chicago don’t mean a lot when you can’t turn on your lights in Massachusetts.
I can’t imagine what people went through say 150 years ago when there was no communication when a storm like this hit. Then again they would have mostly cleared land and no electricity and generally had their own food supplies so it might not have been an issue in the days before the car and the telephone pole.
When you are a 16 year old kid and you are working in the only supermarket in town that has power, you are likely doing the greatest service for the general public that you will do during your teenage years.
The local Bishop gave dispensation for Catholics to skip mass this Sunday however we had it anyway and a fair amount of people turned up.
It’s kind of funny I’ve been disappointed that there have been no bites on my eBay offerings for remote tech support, but it turns out that I’m lucky because if there had been pretty bad to not be able to connect.
It is a real commentary on the state of television these days that I have not missed it in the least.
During my time when my family and another stayed at a friend’s house in Ft. Devins on Friday night we ended the evening with a game of Apples and Apples and started the morning with a game of Talisman. There is a real pleasure of 6-9 people sitting at a table together playing a game and enjoying each other company.
It very odd when you can drive 50 miles in a direction and there is absolutely no damage when your city looks like its been chewed up and spat out.
You know all those ads about firing your phone company with magic jack or the Comcast triple play sound great until you have no power to run your phone.
And I am very grateful that I decided to keep my second line as an old fashioned land line. It has been working the entire time.
And finally it is amazing what you can do without when you have no choice in the matter.
