“Don’t think you have a corner on all of virtue, vision and the country.”
It’s no secret that my favorite series on this blog is Fridays for Friday, my continuing homage to one of my great heroes and role models, Mr. Jack Webb.
Well, I found this excellent verbal reprimand of some long haired liberal punks made soft by their instant orange juice very relevant today! Enjoy!
In Webb We Trust!

Related PostsTiVo to Serve Domino’s Pizza On Demand

TiVo, the Alviso, California, maker of the eponymous set-top box on Monday announced it teamed up with Domino’s to offer its 3.6 million subscribers pizza on demand.
Those people will now have the ability to order pizza for delivery or pick-up, and track delivery timing right from their TV sets using the service, the companies said in a joint statement.
TV watchers will see an ad for Domino’s and will be able to click “I want it” from their TV remote. Viewers have to pay when the pizza is delivered.
The companies are hoping that the alliance will help with declining sales and customer losses.
TiVo, whose stock plunged 30 percent this year, lost 178,000 subscribers in the second quarter while Domino’s, the second-largest U.S. pizza chain, reported a drop in third-quarter profit and has seen its stock drop 71 percent in the last 12 months.
The set-top box maker already offers customers the ability to buy movie tickets and products on Amazon.com.
Adding a new dimension to the word ‘invincible’
And that new dimension is ‘overrated hack.’ Losing in 14 seconds to a guy who had an 0-2 record in the UFC? “The most incredible victory in the history of mixed martial arts?” How much did CBS pay the announcer to embarrass himself?
The backstory is that Kimbo’s original opponent was to be Ken Shamrock, who had to bow out because of sparring injury. Seth “The Silverback” Petruzelli was the last minute substitute, with a MMA record of 9-4-0 going into last night’s event, including a lackluster record of 0-2 in UFC competition.
He ended the night flattening the internet sensation, Kimbo Slice, an athlete that was marketed as a fearsome, invincible fighting force, mostly because he was a scary looking big black man.
The biggest loser had to be Ken Shamrock, who blew his last decent payday. Given Kimbo’s performance, the old man might have even won, giving him a few more high profile paydays.
An exiting night at EliteXc Heat!
Dick Morris proclaims a Sarah Palin victory, and her to be a ‘Superstah!’
Bill Clinton’s magic pollster and adviser, and notorious sucker of prostitute’s toes, has been a Fox NEws analyst for quite a while. The movers and shakers at Fox called him in to share his wisdom
The author of Condi vs Hillary may not be very prescient in that case, but her didn’t disappoint last night - he called this debate perfectly, noting Governor Palin’s strong showing in the debate and proclaimed her the winner.
But he really knocked it out of the park when the slow witted Alan Colmes tried to rely on some oddly disjointed talking points. Morris called him on it, and Colmes didn’t know what to say.
Bawney Fwank can’t get past his speech impediment to lie enough
Fox News’s Bill O’Reilly has been hot about the difficulties in the financial sector of late, and instead of using the more commonly accepted ‘plenty of blame to go around,’ he has outed the names of those most responsible.
Among them, Representative Barney Frank from Massachusetts. Poor Barney wanders into the No Spin Zone, hoping to weave his usual magic. What he found was Bill researched, ready, and prepared!
Wow, that was fun! Barney Frank, you suck! But those of us that know about your prcivities knew that already!
In Webb We Trust!
Well it’s been a while since my latest entry in the Fridays for Friday series of posts. Originally intended just for the Fall of 2007, I do like to revisit it now and then when something good crosses my desk here at the world headquarters of The Silver State Chronicles.
So when I found this great short video of Mr. Jack Webb introducing The Story of Old Glory! Enjoy!
Kick their asses, kiddo!!!!
Barry & Revoltin’ Joe won’t know what hit them!

What a massacre…
US Weekly didn’t waste any time in publishing a cover story/hit piece on GOP VP Nominee Sarah Palin. Fox News rising star Megyn Kelly did a brief interview with a forgettable US Weekly editor, Bradley Jacobs, who ostensibly came down to defend the magazine but it quickly becomes clear that he is largely unfamiliar with the content of his own magazine’s cover story.
It’s really something to see this nervous, quivering fool haplessly try to defend US Magazine’s story, when it’s obvious that they didn’t have much of a commitment to publishing a fair story about the VP nominee.
If this was a boxing match the referee would have stopped it sometime after the first 30 seconds.

Obnoxious news personality Andrea Mitchell was caught in a very difficult spot at the Republican National Convention. Reporting from the floor, she fell victim to a swarm of runaway red, white, & blue balloons!

Related PostsTrue Confessions - A secret about my vast knowledge base….
Well, those that know me well know that one of my areas of expertise is the oil business and the energy industry as a whole. Indeed, now and then I will get calls from friends and acquaintances near and far, all across the fruited plain and even abroad. I have always been flattered by their reaching out to me when they have a question about the oil business or energy policy!
Well, now the truth can be told: everything I know about the oil business I learned watching the classic tv series Dallas in its first run! My education starts way back at the tender age of 10, when Dallas first debuted in the Spring of 1978!
For 14 long seasons I stuck with the folks at Dallas, through thick and thin! It’s really something that the series finally wrapped things up in 1991, when I was in my first year of law school!
The formula was simple - adapt the basic daytime soap opera approach to a weekly nighttime series, load up the cast, deliver pathos and PG rated sexual situations, and watch the ratings soar! And soar they did!
