Ramblings of a Jackhole

Chicago attorney William P. Smith, of McDermott, Will & Emery, appeared in the Southern District of Florida bankruptcy case before Judge Laurel Isicoff. Apparently, Mr. Smith didn’t think too highly of the her understanding of the situation at hand and decided to tell the Judge that her thinking was “a few fries short of a happy meal.”

Mr. Smith is to be back in Judge Isicoff’s court on June 28th explaining why he should not be suspended from practice before the court for violating the rules of professional conduct. If he doesn’t behave, the judge may just supersize her sanction.

A Sunday School teacher decided to have her young class memorize one of the most quoted passages in the Bible; Psalm 23.

She gave the youngsters a month to learn the verse. Little Rick was excited about the task — but, he just couldn’t remember the Psalm. After much practice, he could barely get past the first line.

On the day that the kids were scheduled to recite Psalm 23 in front of the congregation, Rickey was so nervous. When it was his turn, he stepped up to the microphone and said proudly, “The Lord is my Shepherd, and that’s all I need to know.”

Mexican Standoff

I don’t know how everybody else feels about it, but to me I think Hispanic people in this country, legally or illegally, made a huge public relations mistake with their recent demonstrations.

I don’t blame anybody in the world for wanting to come to the United States of America, as it is a truly wonderful place. But when the first thing you do when you set foot on American soil is illegal it is flat out wrong and I don’t care how many lala land left heads come out of the woodwork and start trying to give me sensitivity lessons.

I don’t need sensitivity lessons, in fact I don’t have anything against Mexicans, I just have something against criminals and anybody who comes into this country illegally is a criminal and if you don’t believe it try coming into America from a foreign country without a passport and see how far you get.

What disturbs me about the demonstrations is that it’s tantamount to saying, “I am going to come into your country even if it means breaking your laws and there’s nothing you can do about it.”

It’s an “in your face” action and speaking just for me I don’t like it one little bit and if there were a half dozen pairs of gonads in Washington bigger than English peas it wouldn’t be happening.

Where are you, you bunch of lilly livered, pantywaist, forked tongued, sorry excuses for defenders of The Constitution? Have you been drinking the water out of the Potomac again?

And even if you pass a bill on immigration it will probably be so pork laden and watered down that it won’t mean anything anyway. Besides, what good is another law going to do when you won’t enforce the ones on the books now?

And what ever happened to the polls guys? I thought you folks were the quintessential finger wetters. Well you sure ain’t paying any attention to the polls this time because somewhere around eighty percent of Americans want something done about this mess, and mess it is and getting bigger everyday.

This is no longer a problem, it is a dilemma and headed for being a tragedy. Do you honestly think that what happened in France with the Muslims can’t happen here when the businesses who hire these people finally run out of jobs and a few million disillusioned Hispanics take to the streets?

If you, Mr. President, Congressmen and Senators, knuckle under on this and refuse to do something meaningful it means that you care nothing for the kind of country your children and grandchildren will inherit.

But I guess that doesn’t matter as long as you get re-elected.

Shame on you.

Pray for our troops.

What do you think?

The Jackhole has gotten into SOCOM: Combined Assault. It has a cool Instant Action portion to the game where you can play cooperatively, or co-op, to earn “badges” by completing different missions in various tactical areas. Anywho, it’s difficult to keep track of what missions have been completed where. So to help other SOCOM geeks keep track of their progress to their badges, I made an excel template to keep a list of what was completed and what wasn’t, as well as those missions that you don’t have to do.

I added drop down selections so you can note if you completed the mission in either the Ensign, Commander or Admiral level. It will show at the bottom how many more missions for each type that still needs to be completed as well as how many more Admirals in each mission type is left as a badge is available for completing all of the missions in Admiral level. If you complete ALL of the missions in Admiral the column will turn yellow. Get all Admirals in a mission group, and the column will turn green.
And being a good Jackhole I’m happy to share it with every one. So here it is!
