Bride Humiliated in Hotel Snub is Actually Smokin' Glamour Girl on British Adult Television
What a story.
Here you have this average looking bride-to-be who had her wedding reservations rejected by a hotel turning out to be a busty "glamour girl" on British adult television.
Holy cow!
What a sizzling hot vixen.
See: "British Bride-to-Be Snubbed by Stoke Park Hotel as Wrong 'Type of People' is Adult Star on 'Red Light Central TV'."
She was first notified of the rejection by email, which said she and her groom weren't the "right kind of people." Maybe they were referring to the lady's side gig as as a racy star of adult channel bodice rippers!

Vote early, vote often?................from Rico
Noted 'nutritionist' and 'economist' Moochelle O was featured on Matt Drudge's website today as saying people should 'vote early' (forgetting the other half of the expression 'vote often') because your "toilet may be overflowing" on election day.
- I guess we should add 'plumber' to her list of qualifications.
Hey, Moochelle! Honey!
- Thanks to you and your hubby, America's toilets have been completely clogged for years already! Put a cork in it babe.
Smokin' Natalie Portman Sizzles on Set of Latest Film

And rarely do you see Ms. Portman busting out that kind of plunging cleavage, but there it is.

Hot momma is putting it mildly. By the looks of her with those extremely tight maroon jeans, you wouldn't even know she was a mom!
Freakin' hot.

Islam's Many Murders of Americans
By Alan Caruba
Editor’s Note: This commentary was
written prior to the third presidential debate.
Moments in history are markers from
which we are expected to draw some lessons. Thus, October 23, 1983, twenty-nine
years ago, was the date of the bombing of the U.S. Marine barracks in Beirut,
Lebanon. It had been preceded by the bombing of our embassy there on April 18. A
year later, our CIA station chief, William F. Buckley was kidnapped, dying after
15 months of torture by Islamic “militants.”
You can Google the lists of attacks
on Americans, our embassies, hijackings of commercial air flights, housing
abroad of U.S. military, and embassies in Nairobi, Kenya, and Dar es Salaam,
Tanzania. The USS Cole was bombed in the port of Aden, Yemen in 2000, killing 17
U.S. Navy sailors. Other lists are of Americans killed by various Muslim
jihadists here in America.
A key date worth remembering is
November 4, 1979 when Iranian Islamists seized our embassy in Tehran, taking 52
American diplomats hostage for 444 days. Then-President Jimmy Carter offered
such a weak response to an offense against our nation and international laws
that he was voted out of office and replaced with Ronald Reagan. Until Barack
Obama came along, he was known as the worst president the nation ever
had.
Americans tend to think of attacks in
terms of September 11, 2001 when commercial aircraft were flown into the Twin
Towers in New York and the Pentagon. A fourth was brought down by passengers in
a Pennsylvania pasture. Nearly 3,000 Americans died.
The truth—the fact--is that America
has been under attack for 33 years at this point, at home and abroad, and we
still can’t bring ourselves to speak the name of the enemy, Islam.
President Obama whose first and
middle names are of Arab origin is testimony to a lethal capacity to forget just
how many times America has been attacked by its Islamic enemies and his term in
office has seen the Middle East become a bastion of even greater Muslim
militancy, culminating with the murder of our ambassador to Libya and three of
his staff.
Americans are understandably weary of
war having been drawn into conflict in Afghanistan after 9/11. We are still
there to no effective purpose. Twice America waged war on Iraq, first to lead a
coalition to force it out of Kuwait and then to depose Iraq’s dictator, Saddam
Hussein. It took over a decade to finally withdraw our troops from Iraq and, in
neither nation, can we point to anything resembling a successful outcome. Both
the Taliban and al Qaeda have returned despite the occasional drone
strike.
The problem, however, is that Islam
in general and the Middle East, along with other Muslim nations in Africa and
elsewhere, continues to pose a threat to America and the West. In the past Islam
was stopped at the gates of Europe and Crusades were fought against the Muslims
in the Holy Land.
A cult built around Mohammed has a
“holy book” that requires them to make war without end until everyone is under
their domination and all the advances of civilization are reversed. There are
more than a billion Muslims in the world and it is not likely they are going to
convert to some other religion any time soon.
As for terrorism, much of it is
directed out of Iran these days and Iran is perilously close to making its own
nuclear weapons. Iran must literally be stopped before that happens and, so far,
the only nation intent on actually doing that is Israel.
The Saudis continue to fund all
manner of Islamic activity worldwide to the detriment of America and the West.
Having rid themselves of dictators,
Tunisia, Libya, and Egypt do not appear to be likely allies in the future. The
conflict in Syria threatens to escalate and intrudes into Lebanon. The so-called
Palestinians remain a festering problem, kept going by nations in the region and
the United Nations. Africa remains ripe for increased Islamic conflict.
In his book, “The Audacity of Hope”,
President Obama said, “I will stand with the Muslims should the political winds
shift in an ugly direction.”
America is closing in on an election
that poses a choice between the most pro-Islamic President to ever hold office
and a challenger who is on record as saying he will support Israel in its effort
to avoid nuclear annihilation.
There is no real “choice” here except
between four more years of a presidency that actually encourages Islamic
militancy, sinking further into an abyss of national poverty, the loss of our
position in the world as a power for freedom and democracy, and a life of misery
for the present and future generations of Americans.

“Fifty Shades of Grey Hair”
The missus bought a Paperback
down Dymocks, Saturday,
I had a look in her bag;
T’was “fifty shades of grey”.
Well I just left her to it,
At ten I went to bed.
An hour later she appeared;
The sight filled me with dread…..
In her left hand she held a rope;
And in her right a whip!
She threw them down on the floor,
And then began to strip.
Well fifty years or so ago;
I might have had a peek;
But Doris hasn’t weathered well;
She’s eighty four next week.
Watching Doris bump and grind;
Could not have been much grimmer.
Things went from bad to worse;
She toppled off her Zimmer!
She struggled up upon her feet;
A couple minutes later;
She put her teeth back in and…
Said…. I must dominate her!!
Now if you knew our Doris,
You’d see just why I spluttered,
I’d spent two months in traction
For the last complaint I’d muttered.
She stood there nude, naked like;
Bent forward just a bit ….
I thought what the hell,
Stepped forward,
and stood on her left tit!
Doris screamed, her teeth shot out;
My god what had I done!?
She moaned and groaned then shouted out:
“Step on the other one”!!
Well readers, I can’t tell no more;
About what occurred that day.
Suffice to say my jet black hair,….
Turned “fifty shades of Grey”.

Worth-less. Stimu-less. Clue-less...................from Rico
Do ANY voters 'remember' the promises made with stimulus?
Let's see. In exchange for spending trillions of taxpayer Dollars, credi, jobs, and housing would ALL be stimulated!
- NOPE. Perfect trifecta of FAIL. The only ones 'stimulated' were the TBTF banksters that 'own' the cesspit a.k.a. Washington.
The media kept-whores meanwhile barrage the sheeple with fake data as part of the MOPE (management of perception economics) hoping that enough dummies will buy this pre-election mirage that they won't notice they got shafted and might as well grab their ankles and assume the position because even more BOHICA is headed their way.
Some things cannot really be hidden, however, and that pesky reality is one of them.
- One third of Americans have NO savings.
- Four of ten Americans (that's 40% for Barry supporters and other Dim-ocrats) have less than $500 saved.
The vaunted and hyped stimu-less was in fact worth-less, as is a huge swath of the American public [read: worth less, much less].
- We'll see in a few weeks how many of them remain CLUELESS.

Spotting Guide.........................from Rico
I still have a couple enemy aircraft "Spotting and Identification" guides from WWII that were handed-out to civilians of the period.
Today, the government hands out EBT cards, Food Stamps, and 'free' Obamaphones with 'free' minutes.
Thanks to a friend of mine who is a mole in the bowels of that most Nazi-sounding Department of Homeland Security, here is their offishul "Terrorist Spotting Guide" which has been issued to TSA (Thousands Standing Around) to assiste their efforts in the War on Terror.
- This goes a long way toward explaining why they are acting like Stasi goons in East Germany.
Of course, it's (a) for our own good, and (b) we can 'feel' safer now, and (c) best be prepared to "show your identity papers, please."
- Jawohl, Herr Kommisar.
As I Age . .
As I approach my twilight years, I am struck by the inevitability that the party must end. And one clear, cold morning after I'm gone, my spouse will awaken in the warmth of our bedroom and be struck with the pain of learning that sometimes there isn't "anymore."
No more hugs, no more special moments to celebrate together, no more phone calls just to chat, no more "just one minute."
Sometimes, what we care about the most gets all used up and goes away, never to return before we can say good-bye, say "I love you."
So while we have it, it's best we love it, care for it, fix it when it's broken and heal it when it's sick.
This is true for marriage.....And old cars. And children with bad report cards, And dogs with bad hips. And aging parents and grandparents. We keep them because they are worth it, because we are worth it.
Some things we keep -- like a best friend who moved away or a sister-in-law after divorce. There are just some things that make us happy, no matter what.
Life is important, like people we know who are special. And so, we keep them close!
Suppose one morning you never wake up, do all your friends know how you really feel? The important thing is to let every one of your friends know your true feelings, even if you think they don't love you back.
So, just in case I'm gone tomorrow, please vote against that asshole Obama.

As expected.................................from Rico
Just as 'expected' the Mothers of Intervention (with apologies to Frank Zappa) hammered the metals immediately upon the opening of the access market Sunday night. They did not disappoint me and have paper-induced artificially lower spot prices yet again.
- Gold has just waterfall dropped to 1714.50 from Friday's close of 1724 as of this chart.
- Silver has just waterfall dropped to 31.71 from Friday's close of 32.13 as of this chart.
We'll 'see' if today is truly as fugly as I think it will be before very much longer, but I rather think we'll have to suffer this horribly bad Kabuki theater a bit longer before the wise guys decide to make even bigger money by reversing the trade.
- Of course THEY'LL know when that will be, but most others won't until it's far too late to catch the runaway train if (as is hoped) the Cartel can shake the Muppets loose from their positions beforehand.
For now, the apocryphal words uttered in 1775 just before the Battle of Breed's Hill seem to apply:
- Don't fire until you see the whites of their eyes!
Gee, you'd "think" somebody had a vested interest in how the upcoming election turns out!
