Wherein Weasel shows her ass to the internet

Phew. Sorry for lameness this week. I’ve alternated between screaming busy and lying on the beach like a clubbed baby seal.

One more ordeal — we have to go to London for the day tomorrow — and then I plan to revert to the useless sack of wastrel mustelid you all know and love.

Oh, the Scottish thing? Absolutely neck and neck. The latest polling has it 48/48 among Scots. But the voting is not just among Scots, it’s any EU citizen living in Scotland, and the outsiders are slightly inclined toward No. It’s a bit nerve wracking.

A Yes vote could have some ugly short-term financial consequences for us. It could have better medium- and long-term consequences for us, as the rest of Britain moves a big step to the right by process of elimination.

You should hear some of the hare-brained socialist booshwa they’re coming up with up there, should the Yes campaign prevail. They think they’re going to float a lefty utopia on whisky and North Sea Oil.

They only joined the Union in the first place because Scotland went bankrupt. The nobles lost their kilts in South American investments in the late 16th C and graciously accepted an English bailout. In other words, they’ll be back. Plus ça change.

Good weekend, all!

I love the Scots, but I like socialists getting their comeuppance even more. Whatever happens, here’s hoping the good good guys benefit and the bad guys don’t.

Being a voyeur I would like to see independence for Scotland succeed, just because it would so interesting to watch for the next 5 years or so. Having said that, I suspect that a lot of people who are talking so boldly for Independence in public won’t be quite so brave in the loneliness of the voting booth. Add in the fact that the free press will alway try to make an election look close just for the click-bait value, and I am willing to bet a reasonable amount on the failure of the independence movement.

Looks like the ocean is going to run off the edge of the world :+)

I hope they vote ‘No’…there’s enough turmoil in the world right now.

So, any good eats planned for the big city visit or just MickeyD’s burgers and fries?

Vogon magazine claims it’s the year of the ass or some shit, but I think that started 20 jan 2009.

If we will not zoom in, Dame Stoat will ex-sanguinate a bunny, six pheasants and a partridge in a tree.

Every week.

Hey Stoats,

Here’s a HopeNChange comic that you might get a little kick out of…

I’m sure His Oneness was greatly disappointed that he didn’t get to see any whales at the summit he was present for over on your side of the pond. He was probably looking for them when he was late to the first meeting. Then he has to go and do that stupid wave at the camera thing again. Gawd! What a never-ending embarrassment that POS is.

We had *planned* to have some good eats, Pat. We were scoping out either a Chinese or steak house. Then it got late and we decided we’d go back to Victoria Station and just have a Burger King (I haven’t had a Whopper in *years* — we don’t have one in the area). Then when we got to the station, our train was in and we thought it wasn’t worth catching a later one for the sake of a burger and fries.

So now we’re home and STARVING.

I will punish him for raising me with those weaker cards
by playing more hands. It generally is a signal he thinks they’re
inside with a good hand. It is unique, efficient along with a nice place to
ploay is simply perfect site for the on-line poker communities.

It would seem that your fine mustelid posterior has attracted a following among the on-line poker community. Congrats.

Dude, for all you’re seeing of my ass, that might as well be a picture of Uncle B.

Not surprising. After a spell of cohabitation, there is a degree of automorphism within the same sett, or maybe it is that Colonial visitors revert to Islander matrix, who knows.

That barge on the horizon looks like it wants to slide down. I wonder if the native herring shoal watchers feel a twinge of vestigial fear caused by Viking longships, bringing vibrant diversity enrichment to the Isles. Same thing occurs when one flies a kite over a flock of chickens. They squawk in terror even without seeing a real raptor bird in their lives.

If one trains a weasel to perform CPR, I wonder if it is necessary to encase the recipient’s neck in some cast iron sheath. Especially the vein below ear.

No offense, Stoaty, but given my preference for the opposite sex, I’d rather see Unk’s ass. Nothing personal, however. I’m sure yours is just dandy. It’s just not my thing.

The ocean, however, I never get tired of looking at that!

I’d oblige but it wouldn’t fit on the screen, Nina 😉

Beware: more than one link in a comment is apt to earn you a trip to the spam filter, where you will remain -- cold, frightened and alone -- until I remember to clean the trap. But, hey, without Akismet, we'd be up to our asses in...well, ass porn, mostly.
