The Ninja Hauler

Saw this the other day. Here's a snippet from (supposedly) a real Craigslist ad for a used car.

NINJA HAULER: 2005 Nissan Xterra - $12900 (Ronan / Lake County )

OK, let me start off by saying this Xterra is only available for purchase by the manliest of men (or women) . My friend, if it was possible for a vehicle to sprout chest hair and a five o'clock shadow, this Nissan would look like Tom Selleck . It is just that manly .

It was never intended to drive to the mall so you can pick up that adorable shirt at Abercrombie & Fitch that you had your eye on . It wasn't meant to transport you to yoga class or Linens & Things . No, that's what your Prius is for . If that's the kind of car you're looking for, then just do us all a favor and stop reading right now . I mean it . Just stop .


If you want to keep reading, see the post HERE.

Now that's a real car. lol

Change. Has. Come.

A friend of mine just blogged:

My former command [USS Port Royal] - and home for 3 years - is stuck in shoal water next to Honolulu International Airport. This is easily one of the five worst things you could ever do to a ship. Read more.

RADM Walsh, according to the KHON2 article, said: "[An] investigation will determine exactly why the ship got to the point where she was in shoal water."

Little do they know that making that determination might entail traveling back in time to June 3, 2008. For I am personally convinced that this tragic comedy surrounding the USS Port Royal is a victim of the law of unintended consequences.

As he promised us, President Obama is affecting the oceans. I'm quite certain the Naval investigation will find that the "rise of the oceans began to slow and our planet began to heal," rendering previous depth charts unfit for navigation. What used to be a 35-feet plus sounding of water has apparently receded to a mere 22-feet. This is the result of the planet healing, global warming trends reversing, and the oceans shrinking back up into the polar ice caps. It's not the ship captain's fault - he was acting on information that was deemed to be reliable. It's the ocean's fault. Or is it...?

Clearly, the Navy will need new charts.
Change has come.

(P.S. Does this make President Obama a national security risk? What will be affected next?)

Looking for something to watch?

Received the following message at my Twitter account from freshman Congressman Jason Chaffetz (R-UT):

" http://tinyurl.com/dh8zj9 Bit about my CNN freshman project. "

In case you weren't aware, CNN.com is doing a weekly series, following two freshman Congressman (one Democrat, one Republican), who largely self-produce this content by carrying around a Flip video camera and documenting their activities.

The article, linked above, goes into more detail.

Want to see some greenies/n00bies/freshman Congressman during their first year on the Hill? Check it out at CNN.com

Stay tuned for more items of interestand intrigue.
