Biggest Loser

Marginal air quotes, celebrity, air quotes Jesse James cheated on his wife.  Jesse James’ wife is Sandra Bullock.  Jesse James is an idiot.

Hangin' on the telephone...

While her songs really seem to be blending into one long mix, Lady Gaga once again strikes video gold, this time with a little help from her friends. This one’s goin’ out to David Marcoe and his sophomoric lines about lesbians and -fritz-, who may or may not find value in this mini-movie…

In the words of the almighty Sen. Blutarsky

Ho-ly shi-tuh!!! Depending on what day it is and my mood – am I blues Eric or eclectic Eric? – my choice of favorite album ever vacillates between Exile on Main Street or London Calling (Fair Warning if I’m in a particularly pissy mood, but due to its miniscule-but-packing-a-powerful-punch length, must hit play again after [...]

You asked for it, part something or other

Veruckt, please enter drool phase…

Right Now, Back Then

I believe the statute of limitations has passed for the guys that did this flying. Who doesn’t love low passes by supersonic jet fighters? I mean besides commanders, safety folks and humorless tree hugging hippies.

What A Hero Really Is…

H/T The Jawa Report

Harold Estes, Real American Hero

The sad thing about it is, the person this letter is intended for would consider him a tired senile old man…

Dear President Obama,
My name is Harold Estes, approaching 95 on December 13 of this year. People meeting me for the first time don’t believe my age because I remain wrinkle free and pretty much mentally [...]

The New Miss England

From The Jawa Report

A soldier who has served in Iraq has been officially crowned Miss England after the original winner relinquished the title last year to clear her name.

Congrats to L/Cpl Katrina Hodge! Jawa has a link to a bikini video if you are at all interested.

Yeah, I’m back in Iraq for those who [...]

When They Come Back

When They Come Back is a campaign that was started by five ladies from Texas who ask for everyone to put themselves in a Soldiers shoes boots. They combined talents and resources to express their gratitude to those who serve so we can enjoy the simple freedoms of daily life. Their vision is brought [...]

Healthy dose of BS

Call me kooky (or worse), but something tells me Tiger Woods wouldn’t have as much fun listing his tabloid rumors as Spears’ team did. Hate to admit it, Brit: pretty damn clever way to go on the defensive offensive.

The list culled mostly from U.S. and British websites, celebrity magazines and newspapers, included various reports of [...]

Don’t call it a comeback, though we’ve been here less than a year (BUMPED)

“On the 3rd planet from the Sun, I’ve been trying to get the funky job done!”

Wow!  Mighty Skip has just made my month!  And in a month that includes Christmas that’s sayin’ something’.  I really like James Brown and I am a big fan of his song, “Gravity.”  I hesitate to [...]

Flora Takes Revenge On Fauna

According to Live Science, more plants are meat eaters than originally thought. The list may include potatoes and petunias.

“We may be surrounded by many more murderous plants than we think,” said botanist Mark Chase, Keeper of the Jodrell Laboratory at the Royal Botanic Gardens at Kew in England.

I would say more about this topic, but [...]

A Graduation Speech

This speech is 12:10 long…and is worth every second. You owe it to yourself to watch the speech given by LTC Randolph White at the graduation from Basic Combat Training by America’s newest Infantrymen.

It’s a little old (circa 2006) but it’s still relevant and true…every single word.

Marisa Miller Thanks Me

…and a bunch of other folks, but mainly me. Yeah, I’m sure of it.

Thanks Harley Davidson and Marisa Miller for your support of those who are serving and have served in the past. You’re pretty cool even if South Park does call you “FAGS”.

Photos From The Front

Makin’ Her Daddy Proud

Sure, we could ask questions. We could wonder how anyone thinks of trying this in the first place. We could speculate on how much practice it took to perfect the technique and how much drinking was involved. We could consider whether or not her hips should be registered with the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and [...]

Ed Montana – Obamanation

I don’t think that many fellow Threedonians share my love of C&W, at least based on some of the comments in the past, but I guarantee that you’ll enjoy this one no matter what your musical tastes:

We Report – You Decide!

Veruckt asked for some hotforwords.com hubba-hubba and we are always happy to accomdate the V-Man – times 2. We also give you a question to accompany the above graphics. It will eventually be possible to imbed polls like the following directly into this here bloggy-thingy. For now, Floyd has set my level permissions [...]

These Are American Soldiers…

From ABC comes this STORY of an outpost being over-run and a fight to the death.

Flying into the besieged Afghan base during a nighttime firefight this weekend was a harrowing mix of overwhelming noise, stomach dropping maneuvers and shadows hurrying through the gloom.

When the chopper lifted off moments later with three wounded soldiers, it [...]

“Nostalgia is a way for people to feel safe.”

Hmmm, sounds a lot like good ol’ conservative values to me, in more ways than one. Suck it, ACLU.

This is what they want, this is what we get

International Olympic Committee, Threedonia salutes you!!! Ladies and gentlemen (guys), start your 2016 engines …

Finally, A Useful Study At a Major University!

Central Florida News reports that the University of Florida published a plan on how to respond to a zombie attack. The full story is here. This gives you the gist:

The author or authors of the report discussed the science of “zombie behavior spectrum disorder,” or ZBSD, and even encouraged university administrators to create a “UF Zombie Response [...]

Friends of “Weird Al”

Break out the wacky white man dance moves, America — they’re baaaaaack!!!!

“We have two audiences now, two distinct audiences, and it’s great. We have a college audience that discovered us by watching YouTube…and we have the people that were around that remember what Devo did to begin with, when we were some kind of cultural [...]

This Is My Office

These are some short clips of the AH-64 Apache, the aircraft I have flown for a little over 10 years now. I assure you that these clips are not of me, nor do I know who did it.

I do know that the US Army frowns on such behavior and for a good reason…it’s dangerous. [...]

Friday Night Fight

Rarely is a YouTube video as appropriately titled as this one. From the movie The Undefeatable (yes I know).

No offense to Salma, Ally or Molly…

…but I believe Kit might have been looking for something like these instead.

Caroline, wo-man, Sixteen Candles

Sometimes, the Doctors Don’t Know Sh%t

Here’s a question. Who’s the toughest person in the world? Fireman? Navy SEAL? Ultimate Fighting Champion? No. The toughest person in the world is a premature baby.

A premature baby declared dead by doctors was found to be alive hours later when he was taken home for a funeral wake.

The baby’s [...]

Goodness gracious, great something or other

Maxim Magazine, You Are Dead To Me

Niedermeir, DEAD! Marmalard, DEAD! Maxim, DEAD!

As I described in an earlier post on this very website, we here in Iraq read a lot of “literature” that would be considered fluff. The real world when we go “outside the wire” is enough mental stimulation for one day, so when a lot of us pick up a [...]

Palin Resigns: “We are not retreating, we are advancing in another direction.”

More here, and just about everywhere else on the Internet, including Threedonia’s Friday Open Thread.

(And for the record; we are all in a bar, celebrating Independence Day Eve.  Kriskey caught the news on one of those scrolls when he looked at the bar TV to check on the score of the BoSox-Mariners game (tied up [...]

Action Jackson!

Victoria Jackson is the most adorable political activist ever.

I am a beginner political activist.I’m doing everything wrong too, but at least I’m doing.  I called Howard Berman, and told his assistant to vote “NO” on the Hate Crime thing.  She belched, “Are you aware that Howard Berman is the one who created the bill?”  I said, [...]

It’s not a Whataburger but then again what is…but this looks like a damn tasty burger.

Top 5 Movie Twists

Though I searched for the Planet of the Apes photo in the Open Thread for a different reason (you can guess or Google) it also made me think of movie twists. I don’t know if it’s always been difficult to keep secrets in films, but I hurried to the theater to see The Sixth [...]

Jake Tapper is an Atrocious Journalist

Hey Jake, want some kool-aid to wash down that cake?

O.K., go here and read the article.

Let’s look at what’s going on here.  Jake Tapper, a man who collects a paycheck from ABC as a reporter/journalist writes, “A bizarre and inaccurate meme is circulating among conservatives that President Obama referred to the [...]
