Amusing hoax and gullible media

Posted by David Hardy · 10 June 2008 12:19 PM

Here's the story of "The Arm the Homeless Coalition"

It sent out press releases with pics of a guy in a Santa suit with a sign reading "100 percent of contributions will be used to provide desperately needed protection for our country’s homeless." The Columbus Dispatch editorialized against the group, the story was picked up by AP, Rush Limbaugh, and others, newspapers buzzed with angry letters to the editor.

And as you might guess, it was a hoax. Apparently, the idea has been tried elsewhere with similar results.

Great headline

From, appropriately, the Bangkok Post. Great last words, too.

Funny video

Posted by David Hardy · 6 August 2007 10:35 PM

One of those aw, &&^! moments with a .50 Browning.

Blogging will be light for a few days as I'm on vacation...

Just a reflection on the Browning Ma-Deuce. Here's a gun designed nearly 90 years ago, and still in use. Of course so is his 1911 design. And most of his others. American troops still use firearms he designed in the time of their great-grandfathers, or great-great grandfathers.

An old joke

Posted by David Hardy · 1 February 2007 02:45 PM

Just remembered something I circulated when I worked at Interior, representing Fish & Wildlife Service, which had a captive breeding project for condors. It got all the way up to Secretary Hodel, whom I'm told almost fell out of his chair laughing. It was a handwritten note, with the pen held clenched in my fist to make it look "crackpot." It read:

PLEASE PLEASE PEASE HELP ME.

I AM BEING HELD IN A GOVERNMENT LABORATORY, AND FORCED TO PERFORM SEX ACTS WHILE GOVERNMENT SCIENTISTS MAKE NOTES AND TAKE PICTURES.

PLEASE DO NOT THINK THIS IS A CRANK LETTER

A CALIFORNA CONDOR

Bit of Friday night levity

First, a YouTube animation of Calvin and Hobbes. The morning comics will never be the same.

Second, proof that the Aussies share the British sense of humor. A story about a fellow caught in a romantic interlude with a sheep. Note how they carefully blanked out the face of the victim, and her mate, to maintain their anominity.

Takes the record for clueless story

Posted by David Hardy · 22 July 2006 10:56 AM

It really does. We're told two men were arrested for illegally, possessing a "cop killer" gun (that 5.7 mm), then that Schumer is *trying* to have it outlawed, and finally "Between 1994 and 2003, 425 police officers were killed nationwide with a "cop killer" gun."

By gosh, we oughta find that gun and throw it in the ocean!
