#HailZardoz
About that, is ZARDOZ a God? Because I’m thinking he is wishing the worshippers of a different god a happy holiday. Yahweh and Allah would take a much dimmer view.
Well, per the script…
but, remember – Zardoz was Arthur Frayn too. So…Advantage Jehovah.
So ZARDOZ is the trinity. Got it. That explains him turning the other (stone) cheek.
There is a band I like that sample a lot from third-rate movies. Finally found out where this great line came from. Thanks.

ORDNUNG MUSS SEIN!
Backflip dumbass story:
“FBI spokeswoman Kelsey Pietranton declined to say if he would continue to work at the agency.”
My guess is “yes.” It must be nice to have the kind of job security where you can be an absolute drunk fucking retard and shoot someone and still not get fired. I’m sure he got a stern talking to and some paperwork filed by his supervisor. That’ll show him.
“Footage of the June 2 shooting at Mile High Spirits and Distillery shows Bishop dancing in the middle of a circle of people before doing the backflip. The gun falls to the ground mid-flip and discharges as Bishop picks it up. The agent then puts the gun into a waistband holster and walks away with his hands up.
“My whole goal in life is to care, protect and serve people,” Bishop said in court Friday. “I never expected the result of my actions to lead to something like this.”
I’m sure that’s true. The police usually intend to shoot you and if they miss the accidental recipiant is the family dog. Come to think of it, they’re usually aiming for the dog.
Snark aside, was their malicious intent? No. So I’m not too upset about the lack of jail time. Was doing a backflip while carrying a firearm a stupid fucking thing to do while in a crowded area? Yes. And he should be sued so hard his ass bleeds.
The backflip made the gun go off
Damn backflip control now!!!!
I just watched that video again, and I just realized that it the gun actually goes off when he picks it up because he apparently puts his finger inside the trigger guard. Fucking moron.
That’s even worse than I remember.
The worst accidental discharge I ever saw was the same thing. Idiot asks to see another idiots Sig. Idiot #2 hands it to idiot #1. Idiot #1 proceeds the rack the slide while simultaneously depressing the trigger. Missed a bystander by about 2 feet. Guns, alcohol and idiots do not mix.
*”same thing” as in keep your fucking finger off the fucking trigger you moron.*
Yes and you would think the fact that he doesn’t know basic gun safety would be the relevant part of the story rather than the dancing and the backflips.
Dance skills + his gun safety skills = accidental discharge?
Euphemism.
+2 nut punch
I agree. I’m more outraged that is seems like the FBI is keeping his sorry as employed. Like you said, he needs to be sued into oblivion.
I believe the victim’s lawyer has advised him to sue the tax payers instead.
Well, that is where the real money is, isn’t it?
Yeah, that lawyer’s no dummy.

How does a gun go off from falling? Isn’t that only a thing with hammer-cocked pistols?
It didn’t. It only goes off when he picks it up and pulls the trigger.

ZARDOZ’s humour-processing module must be offline. That was LOL funny.
I, too, have not gotten the opportunity to shoot either of my last two purchases. (an AR and a 1911 Commander in 9mm*)
*I am in the market for a CZ or something like it in order to have more round capacity while having a similar function to a 1911.
A buddy of mine had a para-ordinance double stack 1911……It was fun to shoot
I got my CZ cajun ‘d by Cajun Gun Works…It is so much nicer. Recommended.
I carry a CZ-75 Compact in 9mm. It shoots like a dream. The only downside is that it’s heavy due to the all-steel construction, but I’ve never carried anything else so I don’t really know what I’m missing.
The newer ones (P-07) have the Omega trigger. The DA is much nicer than the standard 75, and can be converted to decocker only if you are so inclined.

I have two complaints about the shut down.
1. It isnt really a shut down and everyone is on vacation anyway.
2. It wont last long enough.
This is the epitome of “window dressing”.
This. There will be hoopla about the plight of the (non-essential*) federal worker that really mounts to zilch in issues for them. I just hope we can avoid shutting down open air monuments and parks this time.
*if they are “non-essential” then their jobs (and departments) should not exist (because they are unconstitutional) and they should be fired.
Have some sob stories, shitlord.
Now I have a boner too.
Happy to help.
Oh FFS. They got paid last Friday. They’ve already bought Christmas presents.
If you are a federal worker and at this point you still haven’t figured out how to save money in the event the government TEMPORARILY stops paying you…you’re probably a moron.

Bonus day was today. It was a check as opposed to direct deposit so I was somewhat excited to be able to see the hot slavic (I want to say probably Russian) chick that I would usually see at the bank before my company joined the 21rst century and instituted direct deposit. She wasn’t there. Also, the state and federal gov’t thought they deserved over a third of of my bonus. So that was irritating.
Just remember you voluntarily agreed to give up 33% (or whatever the GOV decides) of that bonus check by virtue of being born here.

CA taxes capital gains as ordinary income. I’m fucked.
Welcome to the PRK.
If this is a recurring problem then why don’t you invest in commercial real estate?
I’m a substantial owner of a foreign biopharmaceutical company, which is in the process of blowing up.
My only real option, I think, is to move out of CA to take gains.
I think what Playa is trying to say is that now that he’s reached the upper ranks of the Los Zetas, he can’t spend too much time in Sinola Cartel territory.
That does explain some things.
My only real option, I think, is to move out of CA to take gains.
Good luck with that. California has full-time employees to tail you and look over any records they can find to see where you’ve been, made credit card charges, see where your kids are going to school, then even come and interview your neighbors, etc. And they will pursue you to the end if you lived in the state for even a few days.
If you want to take gains in a more tax-friendly state, move today, and take the gains in 2020.
It really, really sucks, but the State of CA will do anything they can to claim their share of your income. This coming from people I know who tried to get out, and my new accountant, who seems very sharp.
Yeah, I know. I would have to actually move my entire family out of state.
Staging a fake divorce would get me thrown in jail for a few years.
If you’re talking about something other than a 1032 exchange, I’m all ears.
I’m new to this.
I don’t know what you do for a living so I can’t tell if you are trying to shelter earned income or passive income. If it’s the latter then commercial real estate fits the bill because of depreciation schedules and interest deductibility. Current income can typically be reduced to 0 for years and you control whether you ever realize capital gains.

THE NAVY’S SECRET WISH: BRING BACK THE OLD F-14 TOMCAT FROM THE DEAD?
Why not modify the F-15 to be able to operate from aircraft carriers? It’s thrust/weight ratio is more than sufficient and it is a purpose-built air-superiority fighter.
That said, I have always liked the F-14 (which is a purpose-built high-level interceptor that could also do other things).
Because after Top Gun the F-14 is associated with homo erotica?
If they’re that concerned about Russian and Chicom 5th Gen fighters, perhaps they shoudln’t have shut down production on the F-22?
Based on the video, they’re also looking beyond the F-35 and F-22. I.e., generation 6. +1 military industrial complex.
The F-22 ran ~$226,000,000 a copy (without the true coat lining). Even an F-35 is allegedly only $36,000,000.

107 Facts About Star Wars Episode IV: A New Hope!
Only 107? Pikers.
Are any of those ‘facts’ that George Lucas had no idea what he was doing, but surrounded himself with talented people and rode those coattails for the next 40 years?
That comes in the sequel.
No, that came in the prequels.
American Graffiti remains an amazing movie. How much of that was Lucas? I have to think it was a lot.
Maybe it was his only one. By all accounts Star Wars was saved from his work in edit and then he didn’t direct again until Episode 1. He comes across more an idea guy than an auteur.
