What The Fux News – “We distort, you abide.”

Goodevening Chet, we’re back here at the Occupy Firth Lake movement head quarters on the beach at Sportsmen’s Camp, with a follow-up interview with the movement’s organizers.

Geraldo:  What’s going on with this burgeoning worldwide protest of Lazy Human Debris on this 5th week of illegal socialist anarchy?

Lazy Human Debris (LHD): It’s not going well. Fish populations are being eradicated all over North America. The Commercial Fishermen have driven thousands of small local fishermen out of business by their bombing lakes practice. This is also starving thousands of subsistence fishermen who feed their families fish over the winter months. The commercial fisherman have now incorporated so that they don’t have to fish anymore. They just hire the ruined small time fishermen at a pittance to bomb the lakes for them.

Geraldo:  But the commercial fishermen are only hardworking entrepreneurs! They are creating vast wealth and creating hundreds of jobs for the community. They are the saviors of the fishing industry! Why are you trying to ruin these fantastic engines of economic wealth and job creation.

LHD:       Yes Geraldo, the jobs are there. The ruined small time fishermen used to work hard, 80 hours a week on their own boat, near home, to make a meager living – they were tired but happy. Now they make half of what they made before, working 12 hours a day seven days a week, bombing lakes in remote locations away from their families. But they have no choice, they must provide for their family. Where there once were thousands of people working in the fishing industry there are now only hundreds and, there is now no job security. When all the lakes are bombed out in North America the workers will be discarded like so much human debris.

Geraldo:  How can you spout such absolute nonsense? The commercial fishermen bombing the lakes are creating wealth and jobs. Anyone willing to work hard will advance in the organization. Its EFFETE LAZY LIBERAL MALINGERERS such as yourself that are RUINING THE ECONOMY. You’re just mad that the EFFICIENCY OF UNBRIDLED FREE MARKET CAPITALISM has found a new more effective way to fish and has reduced wasteful labor costs by reducing the number of workers necessary to catch vast quantities of fish! Its people like you that are ruining America for hard working people! If it weren’t for these valiant commercial fishermen the price of fish would rise in the winter again, starving poor families across the globe!

LHD:       Yes Geraldo the short term supply of fish has been increased over the winter months keeping the prices down below past winters, but the poor families of the small time fishermen that are out of work have to purchase the cheaper fish with our tax dollars in the form of subsistence assistance from the government. It’s just another way for the commercial fishermen to steal our tax dollars. It also benefits them by creating a nearly unlimited pool of dirt poor labor that they can exploit in their fish processing plants.

Geraldo:  I have never heard such nonsense! The commercial fishing industry has just posted RECORD PROFITS and are EMPLOYING MORE PEOPLE than ever before. It is one of the only businesses contributing tax dollars, employing people and PROVIDING GROWTH to our economy! What do want? Do you want these captains of industry to be strung up? Do you want to kill the goose that laid the golden egg?

LHD:       No Geraldo, nothing can be done to prosecute these criminals – they have incorporated and thus have made it legally impossible to call them to account and they give millions of dollars to our duly bribed “representatives” to make sure they are free to do as they wish. We are only here to level the playing field and to demand that this rapacious cycle of greed be broken!

Geraldo:  Well there you have it Chet. THEY CALL FREE MARKET CAPITALISM A CRIME! I thought the cold war was over and that UNGODLY COMMUNISM was on its knees! But here it is on our doorstep or should I say beach! While here I have also heard that they were providing free health care to the protesters! Do you know what this means Chet???? They must surely be ABORTING UNBORN CHRISTIAN BABIES here on the beach!!!!! THROWING DISMEMBERED FETUSES INTO THE PRISTINE WAVES!!! I have also PERSONALLY WITNESSED them lighting their hobo fires to stay warm and heat pan-handled food with cardboard from American manufactured goods (a scarce commodity indeed) which is tantamount to BURNING THE AMERICAN FLAG!!!! They also have signs posted around the protest area urging each other to “remain nonviolent” – that is to say they have TAKEN EVERYONE’S GUNS AWAY!!!! THEY HAVE SUSPENDED OUR SECOND AMENDMENT RIGHTS! Before you know it they will be PERFORMING LEGAL GAY MARRIAGE!!! I have even heard people talking about SOCIALIZED HEALTHCARE for everyone, EVEN THE LAZY POOR HUMAN DEBRIS!!!! What do they think this is, some IDEALISTIC COMMUNIST UTOPIAN HEAVEN????

LHD:       No Geraldo, its not heaven it’s Canada. A civilized nation.

It was the Party of…

The better part of a century!  After all it was Jim Hogfish Baxter’s 60th birthday.

Everything was fantastic! The food was amazing (Lucia, it was almost Glee-like!). We had savoy cabbage rolls (aka bundles in hogfishese), Sharon’s delicious hunky cabbage rolls, rough cut coleslaw, redpotato salad, smoked chicken, smoked ribs, pulled pork, baked beans, special birthday cake from a paleolithic diet recipe, carrot cake and on and on. There was any liquor you cared to drink and only about a dozen micro-brewed beers-lagers-ales-alembics-barley wines-etc and a 50 liter keg of Spaten Premiuuuuuummmmmmmm! (Please note pint glass in my hand in the picture) That is to say there was a barely adequate amount of food and drink for the swarms of dignitaries from all over the world. I didn’t get to talk with Gore Vidal, Al Gore or the Dali Lama (but I’ll get an audience at Hogfish’s 70th). Even the ever elusive Tom Masoian was there to name drop but a few – several of the guests were incognito and I am duty bound not to report their attendance. (Mark Rhinehart)

I stated in the previous blog that I would take my camera and post pictures but alas my camera was smashed by Cher’s body guards!!! I will have to resort to posting one of Val’s pictures of the crew tasked with draining the remains of the Spaten after the bulk of the guests had departed.

It was a perfect day – we got to fell and cut a dead tree for the fire at the party, burn cabinetry, eat above average fare and drink excellent beer all whilst Hogfish regaled us with stories. I even heard two new ones! Who woulda thunk that all these years the bastard was holding any in reserve!! An absolutely delightful day – thanks for making it to your 60th Jim so we could have such a great celebration!

So we journeyed back to Pennsylvania from the festering Ohesian bastion  republicanism. The only thing bad about the party was that Baxter and Bart were unable to attend. They had a play weekend scheduled at their god parents Pat and Carol and had to beg off. So Janet and I drove to Pat and Carol’s to retrieve the boys. After an excellent Elk dinner we headed back home. On the way home we were treated to a massive flare of aurora borealis! It appeared as though a section of the northern horizon was afire! There was a huge column of blood red color and various spikes of greens and blues. It was only the second time in my short yet eventful life that I have seen such colors. So it was twice in a lifetime experience! The display lasted for only about a half hour after we detected it. Janet texted several people to check it out, so if you missed it – we weren’t shitting you.

A great and noteworthy weekend. Sorry for so few pictures – you may direct your angry comments to Cher.

Looking forward…

To this weekend.

This weekend is Hogfish Baxter’s birthday. So we will be making our way to the conservative bastion of Porkopolis where Jerry Springer was a former Mayor! It also happens to be the corporate seat of the evil Satan directed home products powerhouse – P&G! To attend a massive gathering of intelligent liberal humanists. It is completely possible that on the date of Hogfish’s birthday that the forces of evil will crack open the earth and swallow all that is good on earth! After all me, the Evil Janeeto (of the planet Janetron) and Sled will be in attendence. This event may just cause critical mass – so watch the news for a “tunguska-like” event coming to an Ohio city near you this week end.

At any rate I will take our camera and try to get some good pictures before we are possibly consumed by the molten fires of doom! Barring any armageddon like event I’ll post them on my next blog. Be afraid – be very afraid.

Goodnight and Goodluck!

Alas dear reader we are poised to leave camp for the season, tomorrow. Its always a bad day for me (if its not snowing). On the way home I always think about getting to see all the friends I haven’t seen over the summer but I still would rather be back at camp.

Its been a very busy couple of weeks – but it always is. There are millions of things that have to be done prior to camp closure and hopefully I have hit the high points and haven’t forgot anything critical. But that’s always a niggling thing at the back of my mind – gee you forgot something! I generally have a huge list of things to do and end up adding things as I cross things off! I also do a lot of  small things on my way to doing other things and then stop when I get to my destination wondering what I was going to do here???? Yeah ya know why I am so fat? I am a Alzheimers bulimic! I eat and eat and then I forget to throw-up!

The weather today was cool clear beautiful – below freezing last night and tonight again. I’ll be checking on northern lights when I let the boys out prior to bed tonight. The stars were fantastic last night when I let the boys out but no lights. Yesterday it was a screaming northerly with big waves crashing onto the naked beach. I got some pictures of the waves- I’ll put them on when we get home.  Good bye summer!
