Yes, the Mine is open for business on Saturday! Had an extra shift to cover so...here I am...echo echo echo...
First order of business: Birthday shoutout to Plunda Claus; aka Apache Chief, aka 2-da, aka Dr. H.G. Oveur.
Second order of business: a "skiff of snow" does not a 24 hour snowfall measurement make. Just thought folks should know that.
And lastly, I grant you this fly Pinay, Nina Roxanne.

A trifecta of FAIL
This FAIL x3 (which I will highlight shortly) is brought to you by CBS5.com.
An [El Cerrito police] officer stopped Michael Perkins, a 45-year-old Richmond resident, at about 9:15 a.m. on suspicion of driving a stolen car, Garman said.The end.
The officer then discovered that Perkins had allegedly just stolen items from the Longs Drugs at 670 El Cerrito Plaza and, according to police, still had the stolen property with him.
Perkins was also allegedly in possession of crack cocaine at the time of the stop, [ECPD spokesperson Susan] Garman said.

Found on Jalopnik: N2A Stinger Mates Retro Style To Modern Corvette Chassis.
My Ford leanings aside, I approve this message. As the owner of an S197 Mustang, I revel in that my car is a more accurate representation of musclecar styling than the 2010 Chevy Camaro...which is also heavily pilfered from GM's branch in Australia, Holden...who sent the Monaro here and called it the last version of the Pontiac GTO...which, while a good car on paper, not only didn't look like a GTO, but was also about as reliable as the last version of the Camaro (i.e.: not very). And I must say, the only vehicles the Corvette engines ever worked in was the Corvette and the Impala SS, which amuses me greatly, but I digress...
This N2A Stinger, however, is a beautiful re-creation of the split-window C2 Corvettes. My only objection is the SS scoop in the nose, but overall, that's a trifle.
Instead of wasting their time trying to out-do Ford with the lardy Camaro, The General probably would've been better served with this instead. But then again, they call a FWD V6 an Impala, so what do I know?

Movie Fail : I Can Tell The Three Stooges Is Going To Suck
Sean Penn, Jim Carrey and Benicio Del Toro are The Three Stooges!?
Honestly, the casting says it all. While I'm not opposed to any of them as actors, their union feels like an unholy trinity (not the good kind).
Sean Penn (?!) has agreed to play Larry in The Three Stooges, according to Variety, and Jim Carrey is negotiating for the part of Curly. Reportedly, Carrey is preparing to gain 40 pounds so he can play the role. And to play Moe? None other than Benicio Del Toro is being targeted by MGM and the Farrelly Brothers.

That's a Big Burger, Too Bad Jeff's a Pussy
The Burger That Feeds a Family of Four
"five thirds of a pound" of beef, nacho cheese, chili, salsa, tortilla chips, lettuce, tomato and refried beans on an 8-inch sesame seed bun.
"The Fifth Third burger is not for the casual eater,"
Jeff could eat this. Jeff could eat 4 of these, if he wasn't such a pussy nowadays. Just be fat, live the dream.

Damn Fool
Jimmy Carter's crazy slavery theory: He thinks the Civil War was un-Christian
Well, duh. War usually is, but Jimm-uh the Rabbitslayer thinks that waiting it out would've been just dandy...
So, let me get this straight: leave the slaves to stay enslaved while "massa" gets his head right? Basically, do nothing and let the bad guys have their way (which is rather the summation of his administration).
Jimmy Carter: enabler of tyrants, past and present.
Well, duh. War usually is, but Jimm-uh the Rabbitslayer thinks that waiting it out would've been just dandy...
He [writes]: "A legitimate question for historians is how soon the blight of slavery would have been terminated peacefully in America, as in Great Britain and other civilized societies."
Carter's comments are so stunning that at a recent discussion about the new book at the New-York Historical Society, both the book's co-editor, Joshua Wolf Shenk, and another "distinguished American" who contributed to the book, Cynthia Ozick, distanced themselves from them. Shenk said he disagreed, and Ozick mocked the idea of negotiating with slave masters.
Carter holds up the British - who didn't fight a war over slavery - as an example, but a careful look shows that case to be thoroughly unconvincing. Parliament had acted in 1807 to ban the slave trade and in 1833 to abolish slavery altogether. By the time the Civil War began in 1861, America's legislature had yet to follow suit - and the Southerners didn't appear in any great rush to do so.
So, let me get this straight: leave the slaves to stay enslaved while "massa" gets his head right? Basically, do nothing and let the bad guys have their way (which is rather the summation of his administration).

Where's the $1.3 million in Kilpatrick war chest?
Ex-mayor, dozens others fail report on campaign finances
Ex-mayor, dozens others fail report on campaign finances
Former Detroit Mayor Kwame Kilpatrick has failed to file a required campaign finance report, violating state law and raising questions about what happened to the $1.3 million he had on hand at the end of 2007.I hear there's going to be an opening in Richmond soon, and a "City of Pride & Purpose" sounds like his kind of town.
