Ruth Buzzi Ginsburg Wasn’t ‘100 Percent Sober’ During State of the Union

Given who was giving this particular speech, I can’t say I’d blame her for trying to drown out the pain:

Ruth Buzzi Ginsburg Wasn’t ‘100 Percent Sober’ During State of the Union

Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg admits to sharing some wine with her colleagues and not being “100 percent sober” for President Obama’s State of the Union address in January.

During Obama’s speech, which lasted just under an hour, many viewers on social media pointed out that the 81-year-old liberal justice appeared to be snoozing.

“The audience for the most part is awake, because they’re bobbing up and down, and we sit there, stone-faced, sober judges. But we’re not, at least I wasn’t, 100 percent sober,” Ginsburg said during a talk at George Washington University on Thursday night, according to a report by The Blaze.

“Name something a doctor might pull out of a person” was a recent question on Family Feud.  Some reasonable answers might be “a baby” (in a Cesarean section) or “car keys” (which some kids might swallow).  My title kinda gives it away if you’re a South Park fan…otherwise, you might be as stunned as Steve Harvey at the first answer that came to one contestant’s mind:

Not content to let the well-documented racism of the gun-grabbers remain in the past, he’s slapping a fresh coat of paint on it and bringing it into the present:

Former New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg: Disarm Minorities

“[Former New York City Mayor, founder of Mayors Against Illegal Guns, financial backer of Moms Demand Action for Gun Sense in America and current jefe of Everytown for Gun Safety Michael] Bloomberg claimed that 95 percent of murders fall into a specific category: male, minority and between the ages of 15 and 25,” aspentimes.com reports. “Cities need to get guns out of this group’s hands and keep them alive, he said.” Yup, you heard right: Bloomberg wants to disarm [blacks]. That’s because . . .

“These kids think they’re going to get killed anyway because all their friends are getting killed,” Bloomberg said. “They just don’t have any long-term focus or anything. It’s a joke to have a gun. It’s a joke to pull a trigger.”

Maybe so. But it’s not a joke to deny law-abiding [blacks] their natural, civil and Constitutionally protected right to keep and bear arms because of criminal acts. And once again, the doyenne of civilian disarmament is pulling statistics out of his posterior parts.

On weight

DSCN5150I was going through my old pictures and found this.  This was from about five years ago.

It’d read a bit higher than that now…by about 35 pounds. :-P  Guess it’s time to get serious about shedding some of the excess tonnage.  Hashing once or twice a week isn’t getting the job done by itself (especially when I ended up missing this past Saturday’s trail due to the early start).  I have a treadmill; it’s been idle.  I have a nice neighborhood; I’ve not been out for a run (or even a bike ride) in a while.  Not doing these things has gotten me where I am…time to suck it up and get back in shape again.
