Rule 5 Sunday

Update: Rule 5 salutes Manute Bol, and thanks Atlas Shrugs, again, for education.

The reward for your patience, as I was seeing the family and judging the iOwnTheWorld contest last weekend, is a double dose of Rule 5 goodness.

Starting From The Top


Chronologically the oldest in my “Rule 5” label in GMail. . .

The Conservative Dude Situation

  • Dr. Helen felt that Stephen Green got robbed on the Conservative Men roundup. At least he wasn’t playing socker.
  • Haemet was concerned at the dearth of legal hotties.
  • This blog absolutely Will Not Sponsor a charity groin wax. No. Charity only goes so far, and certainly not that far.

Accusations Of Stuffing Of The Non-Ballot-Box Kind

No one has asked whether my 44-inch chest is As Nature Intended, because the answer should be the same: no one cares. Yet a former VP candidate continues to be the all-purpose distraction for a failed Administration.

Like Strands Through The Hourglass, So Are The Days. . .Wait

A beach moment with Charlie Crist was popular for some reason this week, bringing out the Rule 5 in some unusual locations.

    God Bless Manute Bol-may his spirit forever remind us of why we fight against the evil-doers.

    I attended the march in 2006 and walked with Deng.

    During the speeches one speaker was this guy wearing rainbow lefty crap who believed himself as being a ‘defender of the oppressed’ made stupid fracking assine statement that ‘from Katrina to Khartoum blacks are oppressed’!

    I hissed and booed his bogus go-gooder BS for attempting to equate a hurricane (just because Bush was President) to mass enslavement and/or death of Christians in the Sudan!

    The road to hell is paved with fracking bogus go-gooders who bullshit humanity with their religiously irreligious agit-propaganda lies!
