50 years ago yesterday the cultural icon was born in Frostbite Falls Minnesota. In his honor here’s the first episode, “Jet fuel formula”.

A while back The Whistler authored a few posts regarding cell phone usage while driving. I just ran across a post by Peter Gunn at Theo Spark that makes a pretty strong argument for banning cell phone usage while driving, although as he notes both parties were clearly reckless.

Verbatim:

The Honda crotch rocket rider was traveling at approximately 85 mph. The VW driver was talking on a cell phone when she pulled out from a side street, apparently not seeing the motorcycle. The riders reaction time was not sufficient enough to avoid this accident. Both drivers both made stupid decisions—their last.

The car had two passengers and the bike rider was found INSIDE the car with them. The Volkswagen actually flipped over from the force of impact and landed 20 feet from where the collision took place.

All three involved (two in the car and the bike rider) were killed instantly. This graphic demonstration was placed at the Motorcycle Fair by the Police and Road Safety Department.

Pass this on to car drivers or soon to be new drivers, or new motorcycle owners

AND ESPECIALLY EVERYONE YOU KNOW WHO HAS A CELL PHONE!!!!!

Watch from the safety of your computer, it’s pretty cool. But as always, don’t try this at home, especially inside the home.

At MSNBC They All Look Alike

Yesterday Contessa Brewer had “Rev. All Sharpton” on to offer comment on one of her bits. The only problem, It was really Jesse Jackson. Feast your eyes. The subtle change in Jackson’s expression is priceless.

“That’s a rather vulgar statement”. I’m not sure if he was referring to being compared to Sharpton, if so it’s a start.

More fun today when the rest of the MSNBC crew hammer Contessa.

Yup, that’s a “real” news outlet!

HEH, this ones for Ellinas!

Counting in Greek is a riot!

Oops, my bad. I guess he's counting in Roman, but what's the difference?

Janeane Garofalo Defines The Racists

This shows the absurdity of the lefty meme that tea party goers are racist.

Forgoing Fact Checking Isn’t Just Limited To Our MSM!

Two Bangladeshi newspapers have apologised after publishing an article taken from a satirical US website which claimed the Moon landings were faked.

The Daily Manab Zamin said US astronaut Neil Armstrong had shocked a news conference by saying he now knew it had been an “elaborate hoax”.

Neither they nor the New Nation, which later picked up the story, realised the Onion was not a genuine news site.

“We thought it was true so we printed it without checking.”

“We didn’t know the Onion was not a real news site.”

Photoshopped?

Is it real or is it photoshopped, what do you think?

Organizing For America Wants You To Make 2 Phone Calls On 9/11

Good idea although it’s a game both sides can play. Call your Senators office on 9/11 and voice your opposition to the public plan then call again on 9/14.

Tribute to Fat Bastard…umm I mean Ted Kennedy (Kennedy jokes here)

Spartacus — 2009-08-29T00:37:16+00:00

F’in aye, wouldn’t you know they plant him on Michael Jackson’s birthday? Chris Mathews is going to take an eyeball out of one of his cameramen if he’s not careful! Another national holiday the government gets to take while the rest of us support their lazy asses, just wait. Meanwhile put your Kennedy jokes here, they’ll only piss off those too insignificant to matter but will protest none the less, so enjoy!
