Ad Rem Puddy highlights a Tip from the Tip Line
Treeper Jello provides this lengthy consideration for your review:
I think I’m finally pretty up-to-date with the posts on this site, and I haven’t seen anything related to what I’m about to say. But if it’s already been discussed, and I’ve just missed it, sorry. I guess I’ll just have to be embarrassed that I went to all this trouble for nothing. 😉  Oh, and another thing, I partly agree with this recent comment by Sundance:

“… we know that the details surrounding the shooting of Trayvon Martin are no longer the matter at hand in determining the outcome for George Zimmerman.   Indeed, if those details or facts ever truly were what mattered, they are not now.  That train has long since passed the station of justice.”

As for public opinion, at least for the majority of people in this country, I think that’s right. But I still think a whole lot of people can be convinced they’re wrong (as evidenced by how many have seen the light over just the past couple weeks). And when/if this case ever goes to trial, these kind of details are gonna be VERY important, at least if we get a fair jury empaneled. So I hope you’ll bear with me with what I’m about to say, since it very much DOES involve “details and facts” of the case. (more…)

Ohayo Minna!  Today the Treehouse celebrates the birthday of another admin…“zmalfoy”, or Zophiel as she is known to her friends amongst the branches.  Her gravatar lists an impressive array of talents:  vocal performance, bellydance, alchemy, theology, and survival skills.  If she had more room, she could have also included interests in geology, physics, the skills of a Starbuck’s Barista par excellence, and the uncanny ability to always get an “A”.  Yep, she’s even smarter than Sarah Palin’s favorite red shoes!

One of the most interesting aspects of Zophie is her knowledge of all things relating to Japanese Anime (the abbreviated pronunciation of animation).  It’s a style of animation originating in Japan, characterized by colorful graphics and often featuring themes intended for an adult audience.   Zophie’s gravatar is the young “meister” or craftsman named Maka Albarn, who’s one of the lead characters in the Japanese manga (cartoon) called “Soul Eater”.  The story revolves around three teams consisting of a weapon meister and (at least one) human weapon. Trying to make the latter a “death scythe” and thus fit for use by the academy’s headmaster Shinigami, the personification of death, they must collect the souls of 99 evil humans and one witch, in that order; otherwise, they will have to start all over again.

Lovitz might have voted for Obama in ’08, but it looks like the love affair is over. In an interview that was part of a series on Lovitz’s podcast called “The ABC’s of SNL”, Lovitz lets his true feelings out, criticizing not only Obama but the Occupy Wall Street movement as well.
“This whole thing with Obama saying the rich don’t pay their taxes is f*cking bullshit, and I voted for the guy and I’m a Democrat. What a f*cking a**hole,” Lovitz said.
Yeah, Mr. Lovitz, “…that’s the ticket!”  😀   Oh, you might want to prepare yourself for an IRS audit too… one that goes back about 20 years.

Mark O’Mara just finished speaking with Anderson Cooper and disclosed that George Zimmerman, although out on bail, will not receive police protection.

A South Carolina county’s deputies say a McDonald’s employee spit in two customers’ cups of iced tea after the drinks were returned because they weren’t sweet enough.
Authorities say 19-year-old Marvin Washington Jr. was arrested Wednesday and charged with malicious tampering with food.  Time for the Justice Bros?

Is the cat out of the bag?  Rubio says, “If I do a good job as Vice President….”.

Test #1:  A Woman Running

Look at the spinning woman and if she is turning right, your right side of your brain is working. If she is turning left, your left side of your brain is working. If she turns both ways for you, then you have a 160 or better IQ.
Perhaps you’ll find the spinning cat a little easier?  (Hint…focus on the tail.)

Bobby Rush proves that big D after his name stands for “deliberately dense dipwad”, when he decides to strike the radical pose… and in the meantime ensure his reelection in 2012.  According to Rep. Gregg Harper (R) — Rush was violating the rule against wearing hats.

“The chair will ask the Sargent of Arms to enforce the prohibition on decorum,” said Harper, acting as speaker. “Members need to remove their hoods or leave the floor.”

You can fast-forward to 2:35 for the unveiling.

Rush insisted that just because someone wears a hoodie that doesn’t make them a hoodlum.  (Has anyone pointed out the similarities in these two words to Congressman Rush (Big D)?

Fox & Friends spoke to a passenger from the JetBlue flight that had the pilot freaking out.  Don Davis was seated in the 4th row and was one of the first to notice the captain’s strange behavior. 

(TheSun)…A PILOT was wrestled to the floor by passengers yesterday — after running around a packed jet shouting: “We’re all going down — say your prayers.”   (more…)

The New Black Panthers think they’re above the law.  Why?  Because of one man…Eric Holder.  If this stuff isn’t met with resistance, what person or group will be next on their list?  Putting bounties on citizens heads, as well as soliciting kidnapping while traveling over state lines is a felony in Florida.  So, where’s the Florida Attorney General?
