Have you heard the Good News? 

The USA is Winning the WAR ON CRIME

We now have 1% of the adult population behind bars. (I already feel safer, but lets push for 2%)

Thats over 2.3 Million people, or 1 out of every 99 adults. (Maybe if we put more children in jail we can stamp out their life of crime early?)

This gives us a statistical advantage over both Russia and China, our closest rivals. Our incarceration numbers are far higher then the vastly more populated China and on a per capita bases we are besting Russia 750 to 628 per 100K. ( Let us be vigilant, for we dont want an incarceration gap to form)

But shamefully we have fallen from 3rd to 6th place in use of Capital Punishment, now trailing Sudan. (Lets kick it up a notch Texas, BAM!)

As an added bonus for those that live in CT, we are one of only 4 states that spend more on incarcerating people then on higher education. Lets break out the party hats!

GOD BLESS AMERICA

There some debate about this going on in VT as costs go through the roof because we don't have enough cells and other states make a mint housing out of state convicts. Also this separates the prisoners from their families. Anyway, the talk is mostly about getting drug users treatment instead of jail time.

a large part of the problem is our "rehabilitation" programs. they either don't work or they're nonexistent. of course, the other side of the coin is that i don't want money i earned going towards an attempt at straightening out people who have decided to be counterproductive to society, so it's kind of lose-lose.

britain was onto something with the whole australia thing. maybe we should take a worthless state like kansas, nebraska, or oklahoma and just fence it off into 1 big prison. then we could divide california in half, and still have 50 states.

Rockin' Party Dude Strongly Recommends Additional Drinking 

LOUISVILLE, KY—Self-described party dude Phil issued a strongly worded recommendation to fellow houseguests at 3:15 a.m. Saturday, urging the universal consumption of one to two additional brewskis in order to keep the assembled partygoers from totally wussing out. "Come on, where's everybody going?" said Phil, who according to witnesses was wearing a 1980s-era Iron Maiden T-shirt in what appeared to be a non-ironic manner. "Drink up, you lightweights!" Observers noted that Phil's strategy of shaking the keg and citing the resultant sound of sloshing liquid as evidence the party was not yet over might have been effective had he not lost consciousness moments later. As of press time, Phil has still not resumed rocking.

From the onion of course

Ok, thats it, play time's over... i'm taking my ball and going home 

Ok branci, chill, i've removed your admin privileges and changed the password. dude that lasted what, like 10 minutes? and you're calling tim names? i can't think of anything more unpatriotic then telling people they can't do something. go fuck your self. you can all do what ever the fuck you want. last i checked, they still tell us this is a free country. yes, we are elitist assholes, how many of us went to study in china? none. how many of us send money to starving kids in africa? none, (well, with the intent of full disclosure, i should say that i have a microloan for a starving african country. i'm not sure which one, but i've ear marked it for small, manual, water pump projects, its really very fascinating, but thats another story). we're all the same douche bags we claim to rally against.

Tim, i'm not sure the world is ready for full colored action shots of what happens on friday nights. maybe black and white. and stop stirring up trouble for no reason.

and which one of us is drunk, fat AND stupid? i'm not going to say any of us aren't drunk and fat (well maybe ron, pussy.) but there are still plenty of countries where anyone of our intellects would be hailed as godly.

this blog was created to bring an audience to the crazy ranting of my drunk ass. i invited you all along, now behave. booya!

A couple clarifications on my part:
1) "Fat, drunk and stupid..." is a direct quote from Animal House and wasn't meant as an insult...just quoting a scene.
2) I was kidding about deleting Tim's account. That was supposed to be funny because he was ranting about censorship!
3) Your mom
4) I've actually had Administrative privs for years now. Its good to have a backup and i've only used them to delete spam and shit in the past.

No more Tim 

I took the liberty of deleting his account off of workermonkey. I just feel that his unproductive negativity was bringing the site down. It was a hard call but necessary in my opinion. Let us move forward.

You're crazy. "My" unproductive criticism. What about the fucking cry babies who complain when their feelings get hurt. Or when some one has a different opinion on something. Or when something is mispelled. How about the people whose lives are better 90% of world and then complain that lives "not fair".

I still think this site should be the champion of democracy and put decisions that effect all of us to a vote. If everyone wants anym removed then so be it. I could at least live with that.

By Blogger NoBrainRequired, at Wednesday, February 20, 2008 5:45:00 PM  

I hadn't checked the site in awhile and am confused. I think I should wait until I'm drunk to read what I've missed and try to piece it together.

Elitist Facism 

Grammar aside, there is nothing wrong with introducing new opinions into this blog, in fact we need it because a lot of us have similar perspectives and ideas on how things are, and it is in fact kind of boring and staid without it. I think learning about cultures and countries outside of our own couldn't be more important right now. The U.S. is in bad shape right now we cant just seal ourselves off and fester like a septic tank. We need to educate our youth and send them elsewhere to absorb/steal what everybody else is doing better. Look at India/China/Europe there must be 100 times more students/workers sent here than we send to them even though it is a lot harder for them to do so. Our problem as a whole is that we the people are fat, lazy, stupid and content not to see the big picture, instead we like to sit on our super power laurels and wonder why our counrty has a super defecit while other countries buy our businesses and assets for 80cents on the dollar. Not to mention our staggering economy. I'm sorry i got really politcal with this but its true.

And Tim, come on if we were truely facists wouldn't all traces of your posting that disagrees with the powers that be and yourself dissapear overnight.

Vote for the Rock
We're gonna ride this train till the F#$%^&* wheels fall off!

oh man, i miss this comic, id forgotten about it.fuck yeah

Fascism! 

Booooooooooooo!
Booooooooooooo!

Put it back! This should at least be put to a vote! This is so undemacratic it's almost American. And what about people who don't have or want an account? Think of all the discussion it generates. You're isolating us from the societal extremes. Which, I remind you, is a demographic many of us prefer or are an active member of. These people deserve a voice, and the right to opine (its a fucking word, look it up, you grammer nazi. Have a sense of humor about the nature of communication, and focus you energy on something productive) with the rest of us.

Furthormore, as I member of this community, I'm outraged by this new restriction on my freedom of speech. I don't want to login. Call it what you want, but I don't want too and I shouldn't have too. If I want to call myself T or No Brain or Jesus, I should be able to. You're also stealing some hilarious comic value from the comment section.

Then's there the matter of the "Elitist Comment". That was me. Or at least likely me, I'm 90% sure, anyways. While I don't remember doing it, I was able to put together the following evidence:

1) When I was reading the post that morning, I had a terrible hangover.
2) When I read it, I thought it was funny ( I do find myself to be hilarious).
3) I agreed with it.
4) The "study a broad" joke is an old family joke my father has used for years.

Now, I'm not going to apologise. I don't feel I need to. I felt it was an elitist comment, and I'll stand by it. "Asshole", admittedly, was harsh, but, come on. The idea that everyone should go overseas for any reason other than pilliging gold, women or oil seems elitist to me.

I propose the opposite. No one leaves until every problem is solved. Except, maybe, like the bottom ten percent should be allowed to come and go as they(we) pleased (out with the lazy, in with the hardworking!). Or maybe, the poor could just rise up and send everybody in the upper middle class and higher back to Europe (or Africa or whatever). Oh, wait. Their just too lazy and ignorant to ever achieve such a goal. Why don't we just get rid of the second amendment while we're at it. I mean, why would I need to defend myself from my government, they're clearly well intentioned and honorable. All right, that was a bit of an irrelevent tangent. Whiskey's kicking in agian.

I am not, however, the grammer nazi. That idiot pisses me off more anything. Just another kind fascism. If the people I'm communicating with understand what I've communicated, was I not successful? Does it matter in what way it was done? Is that somehow more important than why who or what is an asshole? Or anything else for that matter? Who care's if "some" people have difficulty understanding it. "Some" people are also assholes. And one of those people is me. Mr. Grammer guy, go fuck yourself, the horse you rode in on, your cats and anything else that keeps you company in your cold, lonely existance.

And finally this last note is Matt, Mo and Jesse. I'm going to throw the next "you know what" for our Friday "um, bible study, would that somehow be less lame?" up on my blog. I'll post a link when its done. The rest of you will be advised to not look, or what little respect you have for any of us will evaporate. I feel it makes the whole thing more official and maybe a little classier.

Fat, drunk and stupid is no way to go through life son.

By Blogger Brancibeer, at Wednesday, February 20, 2008 8:59:00 AM  

I was refering to the previous one about us being elitist assholes in regards to the map of the world or how americans see the world. The grammar one i could really care less about, it was the "go suck a dick" comment which if it did come from you (tim) i would have laughed at it and set you straight, you ignorant hobbit, haha just kidding.

Here is my point, just cause matt may know who it is posting these comments does not give me the warm happy feeling when some Anony. feels like saying stuff like that. That attack seemed pointed toward Damon specifically but i took it the wrong way because it was from anony.. Furthermore this is all Tim's Fault who i think should be shunned for 4 years, also kidding. the real problem is just miscommunication and apparently bitterness for the fact that damon likes to study females in scandinavia.

By the way matt you cant argue without differing opinions, you sound like george bush defending the war saying i like it when there is conflict in a war.

That all Betches

By Blogger Tino, at Wednesday, February 20, 2008 12:59:00 PM  

Sorry That's all Betches



Dictated not Read

By Blogger Tino, at Wednesday, February 20, 2008 1:05:00 PM  

Oh. I forgot about "Go Suck a Dick". Sounds like something I would say though. That is a little harsh, so I'm sorry for telling Damon to go suck a dick. I guess I wouldn't appreciate my sexuality being called into question either.

I still say anonymity is part of free speech and that it should be brought back.

As for Brancibeer's point. I may fat, I may be drunk and I may be stupid, but .. well I'm not sure where I was going with this point. Oh yeah, at least I was smart enough to buy home that won't end up underwater due to global warming.

No more douchebag Anonymous comments 

Although i'm not fully convinced that they were not just members in disguise, i still took the liberty of changing that option. They brought no value to the blogs. Actually, I would argue that they brought the opposite of value. They brought non-value. Chump, i hope you are ok with this since i also took the liberty a while back as making myself an administrator to the blog...haha.

nice. i second this move. anonymous comments are useless. i just hope everyone has (or remembers) their valid login info (i'm looking at you here, tim). haha

By Blogger josh, at Tuesday, February 19, 2008 6:09:00 PM  

seeing as how i didn't notice... i can't really complain. i would like to allow the anonymous comments, i know who leaves most of them and i'm alright with it. its not a really bad idea and it does keep us honest. plus, it allows new people to see this place. i know wwe don't have a ton of outside readers but we do have a few, and a handful of people who check this thing randomly. plus, i like arguing with differing opinions. but thats my two cents

By Blogger Supreme Monkey Overlord, at Tuesday, February 19, 2008 7:09:00 PM  

Haha, good discussion! I think that was Tim's first post over 20 words. Hey, I wasn't upset by the grammar comment and it was just a catalyst for my dramatic action. In fact, if one of you had actually signed it, i would think its sarcastically funny...because i know you. I do, however, still feel that most anonymous comments on this site have been detrimental toward our kinship. And thats why this site was created...to stay close. So if you have a problem with what someone said you should put your name behind the response. The anonymity facilitates unneeded tension and irresponsibility in our communication, which i still feel is a negative response we could do without.

By Blogger Brancibeer, at Wednesday, February 20, 2008 11:18:00 AM  

if you want to get technical, this site started as an extension of my drunken late night rant mass emails from college. i wanted to stop using email after i accidentally sent a very bad rant to a parent of a student in our class.

i agree about the negative responses, but aren't we supposed to learn from that and not continue with it?

By Blogger ron, at Sunday, February 17, 2008 8:51:00 PM  

I second Brancy, and Ron's payment comment. What does that thing get for mileage? Gonna like it when you're still making payments and gas costs exceed those? For comparison, I sometimes borrow a '94 Corolla that gets 39 mpg and used to have a '92 Civic that got 41. Those totally paid off, cheap to run, cheap to insure cars are where it's at. Oh and one more thing, in 2008 have American car companies finally realized how useful it is to have the back seats fold down in a sedan?

By Blogger Damon, at Tuesday, February 19, 2008 7:29:00 AM  

not to mention that you just lost 20% of it's value in depreciation driving it off the lot, i for one will never buy a new car, but thats me.

Anyway anonymous must must be an 8th grade english teacher, and i hope not the same as the one that left the elitist asshole comment last month, cause my elitist foot is gonna find it way into that self righteous grammar correcting Ass.

P.S. Ken (Matt) where is Barbie? But honestly have fun with the new car, drive fast and take chances with faster women.

By Blogger Tino, at Tuesday, February 19, 2008 11:11:00 AM  

I'm aware of my inconsistent grammar usage thank you. I forgot that this was a blog after all....how terribly ridiculous of me.

By Blogger Brancibeer, at Tuesday, February 19, 2008 2:35:00 PM  

a '94 corolla getting 39mpg? i don't think so. i took amazing care of my 2000 corolla. at it's peak i got 30-33mpg. but then it died on me. on it's own. for no reason.

plus, old cars are cheaper to insure because people usually don't get collision/comp/rental on them and if they get into accidents they're usually totaled.

cars are a crapshoot. congrats to matt for getting the one he liked best.

By Blogger josh, at Tuesday, February 19, 2008 6:07:00 PM  

wow, what a warm response. hey it come down to this, my Malibu is a good, solid car, i got a nice supplier discount, i was looking at used cars that cost almost the same and have no warranty, it looks awesome, its good for me and i need a reliable car. the cost wasn't crazy, it was totally affordable. the gas milage is good, but it doesn't matter, it around the same as my old car, a little better, and i agree that gas is going to sky rocket, but it hasn't happened yet and i don't see it crashing in the next 4 years. my insurance went up less than 200 dollars a year and this was a smart move for me. so go fuck all y'all. i like it

By Blogger Supreme Monkey Overlord, at Tuesday, February 19, 2008 7:15:00 PM  

Josh you doubt my mileage numbers? You do know I'm an energy engineer/geek and employed in transportation research? Yours may get worse mileage because it weighed more, having more safety equipment and/or features. Many older cars are more efficient than newer ones (especially those designed and built with the oil embargo in mind.)

Aside from not getting collision old cars are worth less, so cost less to insure. And in CT the property tax on an old car will be laughable, but could be annoying at least if not painful on a new one.

Matt Barone: Crackberry User 



well, now the man knows where i am at all times and i have my digital lifeline. A blackberry device has been bestowed upon me for work. Its a nextel as well so its uber-functional. i'll be forwarding my old numbers calls to the new one starting shortly. the new phone has a new number as well but i'm not giving that out here and if i cancel my verizon line i loose the old number. the thing really is very nice and can do way more then i'll ever use it for. it a newer model but its not super fly. it is now attached to my hip, literally, belt clip. i've been over due for a phone upgrade and this was the perfect opportunity for it.

on a slightly related note, does anyone use somekind of software for contact management? i've been introduced to Plaxo and it'll be good, but it ties me to microsoft office, which i guess i'm already tied to for work. i now have to enter a ton of contact information into a new device designed to hold a ridiculous amount of information. if i'm going to spend the time to enter contacts into a computer, i might as well do it right the first time. any suggestions?

My suggestion is to go fuck yourself.

By Blogger Brancibeer, at Friday, February 15, 2008 9:10:00 AM  

after you go f#*& your self. figure out how to not have to manually enter contacts. it seems ridiculous to have to do that, i mean with my razr and mac i just sync them with blue tooth. if your old phone is the problem then figure it out cant you swap out the sim card copy the numbers and info and then put the nextel one back in? im not sure about this but it seems stupid and ironic to have to chisel stone or cuneiform on clay just to use a stupid ass blackberry

By Blogger Tino, at Friday, February 15, 2008 12:59:00 PM

maybe i wasn't too clear. i'm typing contact info into microsoft outloook, then uploading it to the web and my new phone at the same time with plaxo.

By Blogger josh, at Saturday, February 09, 2008 4:48:00 PM  

Me, Jesse, Matt and Mo were coming back from dinner in Vernon. We were on a main road behind another car, maybe 8:45pm. The car in front is 2-3 car lengths up from us. Without using a blinker they veer to the right, into the park and ride. However, instead of going straight into the lot, they continued to turn and u-turned right in front of us. We T-boned their car pretty good. It was something I hope I never experience again. Needless to say, thank god for air-bags and safety belts. Aside from a few bumps and bruises, we are okay. As I mentioned above, my madness continues unabaited.

No one was seriously injured in the accident.

By Anonymous Anonymous, at Sunday, February 10, 2008 3:02:00 PM  

glad every bodies ok. however tim's condition, known as dissociative identity disorder seems to have plateaued referring to himself as "T" on the blog was the first sign.

By Blogger Tino, at Sunday, February 10, 2008 9:51:00 PM  

Rest assured that the "T" has its origens rooted firmly in laziness. Mild anonimity is a nice side benefit.

Then again, if I'm spending time carefully dissecting my own paranoia, perhaps your diagnosis is closer to reality.

Suffice to say, for reasons unrelated to the accident, I've lost my ability to log in as NBR (as I am occassionally so handled in other forums). In due time, I will register a new identity with the machine, and once again rejoin my fellow commiserators in full capacity.

A Good Week 

this week has been good. It started with a nice little vacation from life at the looney's and an unlikely super bowl victory by my favorite team, which also won me a cool 500 bucks in the office pool. fuck yeah! The quality guy at work who i've been pleading with people to fire, is leaving under his own free will. double fuck yeah!! and today i had a nice sit down chat with the "black ops project hitman" as he's become known around work. he's impressed. triple fuck yeah!!!Generally he sits in the back of meetings and just watches everyone, or he's ripping me apart. either or. i know what his marching orders are because i know too much, i hear many things not ment for my ears with out trying. and people seem to have a lot of confidence in me. thats something i've never, ever been able to figure out but thats a different story. this guy has spent the better part of two weeks ripping me apart top to bottom because this project i'm working on was doomed from the start. He's starting to spend more and more time in the plant as the dead line approaches and it my head if it's all fucked up. oh yeah, and as of 2 weeks ago i'm now running this project. but he didn't know that. as far as he knew, i've been leading the way the whole time. until today. this week he's been noticing the people i've got working for me. one is an intern, who's from africa. not much help there, but he really is trying. i give him credit. the other is a grumpy old man who's building a serious machine for the first time ever. wonderful. all the others are my bosses. they've been asking why i haven't been using other "resources" around the plant. i have. i'm out. i've got like ten people working full time on this project and there aren't any more people. at most times i feel like i'm the boss around the place because i'm directing a bunch of people and just managing them all day. we've had a bunch of surprise visits all in a row the last few weeks from customers so its been very hectic. i don't have time to do my own work because i'm ansering questions and helping people out all day. today the "black ops project hitman" figured out what i was doing with all the people because he watched me all day. from his seat in the conference room across the way he can catch the corner of my cubical. and watch all the people in and out all day, and i had a bunch of work done extremely well for a meeting. take that FMEA's!!! Thats when i impressed him. He took me aside and told me about it. It felt good to earn his respect. i was happy. this evening a bunch of us from the office threw a party for the departing secratary. She likes to joke that i'm going to marry her daughter and i'd be a perfect son-in-law. well, thats what the whole party was about when she got drunk. it was a lot of fun and i discovered there are a bunch of people there who would love to have me marry into the family. a nice ego boost.

so far, its been a good week. fuck yeah.

nice! my week's been mostly the opposite. work piled on because more people were out of the office than usual. also, shitty weather affects my job, so the snow and rain didn't help this week. so it's feeling pretty good right now.

congrats on all the recognition. long deserved, it sounds like.

congrats 

just as i would gloat if the pats won, congrats to all you giants fans. the giants were better tonight, mainly because our offensive line played like shit. brady's numbers were actually pretty good, as were welker's and moss was ok too.

but that's neither here nor there. enjoy it. see you in 2009. time for baseball.

oh also, tom petty was pretty cool too huh? about time they catered the halftime show to actual football fans (this decade has seen the likes of britney spears, shania twain, janet jackson, prince, etc).

suck it down Pat's fans. You could probably send the Giant's blood thirsty defense over to Iraq and end the war in 2 quarters. Boo-YA!

Pat's line played like shite? Yea right sucka. There isn't an O-line in the league that can handle the G-men front 4.

Where better then the desert for a honeymoon?

Besides we enjoy outdoor activities such as skiing, and Indiana Jones style photo ops.

And we are not afraid to wear funny hats, its like Tim's house, but with more sand.
