Sunday Brunch

Nothing fancy this week. Think I’ll just stick to a cheeseburger…

Celebrate Human Achievement Hour! (Al Gore UPDATE!)

To correspond with, “Earth Hour” The Competitive Enterprise Institute has organized Human Achievement Hour. So, when the leftards are turning off all their lights – an hour from now – I’m going to boot up all four computers in the house, connect them all to my AirPort Extreme Base Station, have one monitoring my eMail, one downloading pr0n, one streaming audio, and I’ll surf on the remaining one (The PowerMac G5 2.3 GHz Dual Core/23″ Cinema HD Display model that draws about 250-300 watts of electricity), while watching TV in a window to the right.

Simultaneously, I’m going to turn on every light in the house, turn the thermostat up to 78 degrees, and open every door to the outside so I’m heating the entire neighborhood. Then, I’ll fire up the gas grill in the back yard and grill a couple of steaks.

I HOPE I’m setting a good example for CHANGE.

UPDATE: Evidentally, Al Gore, that champion of Teh Earth, followed my lead and left his tree-illuminating flood lights on during Teh Earth Hour.

“The kicker, though, were the dozen or so floodlights grandly highlighting several trees and illuminating the driveway entrance of Gore’s mansion.

I [kid] [shit – Beef] you not, my friends, the savior of the environment couldn’t be bothered to turn off the gaudy lights that show off his goofy trees.”

I’m only shamed by the fact that Al used more electricity and emitted more carbon than I did during Teh Earth Hour.

The Richard Ryan Files #6

NOTE TO RICHARD RYAN: You have been warned many, many times in the past 12 months that if you keep up your harassment of people on this blog, we reserve the right to print selected comments of yours in full, including your various email addresses and IP addresses, and also to contact your ISP(s) and/or other relevant authorities.  The fact that you have continued even after that warning would seem to imply that you consent to these comments being made public.

Part #1

Because of a huge recent influx of vile comments from the same deranged idiot (Richard Ryan, who usually  uses IPs in the Telstra/Dodo 58.163.13x.xxx and 149.135.11x.xxx ranges but has since expanded his IP ranges), I thought it prudent to continue documenting the worst of them in one place.  To keep the pages from taking ages to load, I’ve divided them into sections.

So, here are a few select highlights of the hundreds received thus far.  Not reprinted are those pre-July ’08, before we realized what a persistent, obsessive madman he would turn out to be, or the many that Tim Blair, Andrew Bolt and others continually have to delete from their blogs (both are aware of the stalking that’s been going on for almost a year now and the games Ryan plays, including impersonating a “normal” commenter (often myself) and complaining about “that awful Richard Ryan” among other weird things in an attempt to get published – who knows how the insane mind works…).

I would ask that if any of my fellow editors see any more like these in our comment/spam queue, either send me a screencap (press “Ctrl” and “PrtSc” simultaneously to put it on your clipboard, paste it into a graphics program and save as a .jpg)  – I’m collecting them in case things get even more out of hand, i.e. especially if he succeeds in finding me “in real life,”  as it appears attempts have already been made in that direction.  Thanks.

Just FYI, the comments referring to cancer are aimed at the fact that he knows that yes, I have been ill, and no, I am not interested in blogging on it just now, preferring in my case to keep the Internet a CFZ (cancer-free zone).   The comments referring to “Ash” refer to our main blog administrator, who tragically died in a car accident in January ’09.

Oh, and you can click on the .jpg clips to see them full-size in a new window.  Behold the Leftard maniac in all his vileness.
