Text of the page (random words):
ill focus on ending the horrific human trafficking practice which you d think would mean solving the problem right silly rabbit solving the human trafficking epidemic which is what it is is a priority for my administration we re going to help out a lot solve is a wonderful word a beautiful word but i can tell you we re going to help a lot solve beautiful word who could argue with that so maybe actual solving isn t going to happen but trump and his highest levels are going to help how much are they going to help a lot in what way are they going to help a lot so glad you asked trump is going to have his people take a hard look at the resources and personnel that they re currently devoting to this fight a hard look you guys not a soft look fuck no what you think he s obama no he s going to have them take a hard look at those resources and personnel is that enough to solve help out a lot with this horrific problem well okay maybe not is there anything else trump and his levels can do yes they re going to talk about it it s a very very terrible problem it s not talked about enough people don t know enough about it and we re going to talk about it and we re going to bring it out into the open and hopefully we re going to do a great deal to help prevent some of the horrific really horrific crimes that are taking place man once trump and his highest levels start with that hard look and the talking you re going to see some serious preventing hopefully because human trafficking is horrific also terrible credit where it s due and all that trump had the grace to thank the people for showing up at his daughter s party important meeting i cannot thank each of you enough and the dedicated men and women who run my staff and your staffs in getting everybody together was terrific i was so glad i was able to be here and in conclusion i really can say in this country people don t realize how bad it is in this country but in this country and all over the world so thank you all for being here it s really bad in this country really really bad but in this country and all over the world trump can really say that out loud comrade trump taking a hard look at well resources also personnel still there s this boom another problem solved a horrific practice solved nobody realized how bad it is in this country and in this country also the world but in this country nobody realized until his daughter told him but now horrific practice ended or solved or helped a lot with the staffs and the highest levels and all those hard looks those are some really hard looks the best believe me and really is there a more beautiful word than solve c mon okay maybe horrific that s pretty good too posted in comrade trump politics stupid fucking people 3 replies cows and weird ass giant ice cream cones posted on february 22 2017 by greg 1 i live a quiet life these days and i m glad of it for years my professional life was busy and important sometimes a tad risky often very strange now i mostly deal with words and images now i take walks last week i had breakfast at a favorite joint directly across the street from the iowa state fairgrounds which is one of my favorite places to walk there s usually something going on there a gun show a llama alpaca event a swap meet for car enthusiasts something last week it was a cow thing this is where i confess to being almost completely ignorant about farm stuff i know this is a hereford bull i know it s a hereford because 1 people on facebook told me it was a hereford and what the hell i ll take them at their word and 2 i have another photo of this creature in a stall with similar animals and there s a small sign identifying them as herefords i know it s a bull because this guy had massive cojones that were the size of cantaloupes i declare i don t know how he was able to walk i spoke with the guy for a while he was quietly pleased this particular bull had just been sold at auction for enough money to buy a used harley sportster here s a thing i ve learned about farm folks they tend to be quiet and sort of shy around strangers but if they find you re really interested in them or in what they do they re incredibly friendly they re also pretty tolerant of the odor of large mammals and large mammal shit i mean they clean it up right quick farmers are not lazy people but when you have that many cows lounging around and being moved through the building you can just count on getting some cow shit in the treads of your sneakers while i enjoy the agricultural stuff that s not why i walk the fairgrounds i do it because it s quiet and because there s always some sort of unintended beauty to be found like a lot of photographers i find something attractive in the gradual degradation of buildings falling into disrepair abandoned factories old barns decrepit houses but there s something different about the way a fairground degrades it s different because the disrepair is mostly temporary the fairgrounds is active all year long but it really only comes alive for a couple of weeks around the end of summer a few days before the fair begins folks arrive and start tidying up and re asserting their footprint on the grounds then of course you have a week and a half of the fair after which there are a few days when folks are breaking down their businesses and moving on to the next fair gig then for eleven months things slow down eleven months of wind and rain and snow and heat and cold and storms and hail and all that leaves its mark temporarily for a photographer it s like renewable decrepitude the thing about a fair is that it s meant to draw the eye and ear every corndog stand and deep fried twinkie booth and beer emporium and barbecue joint is competing for attention we re not talking about gentle competition here this is a sort of economic combat it s a tawdry affair all flashy color and noise survival depends on it but when it s over the bright garish vulgarity starts to fade and it fades quickly this is a big part of what i love the visual memory of cheap glitter and the chance to look behind the make up and see the bone structure there s a surprising amount of beauty to be found some places not many but a few manage to withstand the onslaught of neglect even though they re closed for the season some places remain loud and gaudy and weirdly attractive jalapeno pete s for example i ve never been inside jp s during the fair it s always much too crowded i ve never had a margarita in their rooftop cantina but the sheer audacity of the colors and the name itself jalapeno pete s makes it impossible for me to walk past the place without wishing i had we won t see jalapeno pete s open again until august 10th when it does reopen it s unlikely i ll be willing to bang my way through the crowds but i can enjoy it now it s still february the fairgrounds is empty except for the farmers and their cows and the occasional guy wandering around with a camera it s february not as cold as it should be and quiet but the fairgrounds offers constant reminds that it ll eventually be hot enough to warrant ice cream but in truth i don t really care i m not here for the ice cream or a margarita at jalapeno pete s or the hereford bulls with their astonishing testicles i m here for the weird ass giant cone like i said i live a quiet life these days and i m glad for it posted in photography what i saw where i went 1 reply enter promo code to honor george washington posted on february 20 2017 by greg 2 today is presidents day in these united states well sorta kinda in some of these united states it s president s day it s an apostrophe thing but there are some states that do away with the apostrophe altogether in which case it s presidents day but a lot of these united states don t hold with lumping all those presidents together they re more exclusive in a lot of places the day is all about george washington and abraham lincoln both of who were born in february so those states call this holiday washington lincoln s birthday or in some places washington and lincoln day in alabama they dump lincoln and substitute jefferson so they re celebrating george washington thomas jefferson birthday and in arkansas it s both george washington s birthday and daisy gatson bates day and if you don t know who daisy gatson bates is i recommend wikipedia originally of course this was just george washington s birthday and there are still four states including the one where i m currently parked that have stuck with the original version and that s why in iowa today we re celebrating the birthday of the first president of fuck wait okay it s not actually his birthday george was born on february 22 1732 a century and a half later in 1879 congress decided we needed to honor the first president so they decided to make his birthday a federal holiday folks working in the federal government could take the day off to well it s not exactly clear what they were expected to do on george s birthday but not going to work was a big part of it also to honor our first president many shops closed their doors and conducted no commercial business at any rate that s why we re celebrating george washington s birthday fuck wait okay turns out george washington was officially born on february 11 1731 not on february 22 1732 the problem was george was born in virginia and virginia was part of the british empire and the british empire was still using the julian calendar because the british empire wasn t a catholic empire and even though the catholic countries of the world had switched to the better gregorian calendar in 1582 the british empire wasn t about to give in to calendar fashion because dammit it was the british empire don t you know then in 1752 they decided there wasn t anything terribly wrong with the gregorian calendar so they adopted it and george washington s birthday went from february 11 1731 to february 22 1732 and that s why every february 22nd we celebrate fuck wait okay in 1951 this guy named harold stonebridge fischer formed something he called the president s day national committee his plan was to create a holiday to celebrate all the presidents not just one he wanted the holiday to be celebrated on march 4 because that was the traditional date on which new presidents were inaugurated not george washington of course because he was the very first president and we were basically just faking everything back then hoping it would all work out somehow fischer pimped that proposal for something like twenty years with absolutely no success whatsoever but some congressional folks liked the notion of fucking around with federal holidays and in 1971 they passed the uniform monday holiday act the uniform monday holiday act essentially said hey america we don t really care what day washington was born on or when world war one ended or what day y all have been celebrating memorial day and does anybody even know why we ve been doing columbus day on the 12th day of october seriously so we re just moving those holidays to a monday so we can all have a long weekend you can thank us later granted some of those holidays have been re shifted back to their original dates because we re still just basically faking it hoping it will all work out somehow anyway that is why we celebrate the first president or some of the presidents or all of the presidents or some of the presidents and maybe some folks who weren t president at all on the third monday of february and that s why all the mattress stores and shoe emporiums are slashing prices at least that s what we re doing now who the hell knows what s going to happen now that comrade trump has parked his ass in the oval office and republicans run both houses of congress that business of faking it and hoping it still applies but hey at least some folks get a three day weekend so there s that posted in current events despicable behavior historical crap 2 replies trump haiku 3 posted on february 15 2017 by greg reply parting the weeds a wink of frog s feet and splash the pond is rigged posted in trump haiku leave a reply the logan act with optional pirate stuff posted on february 14 2017 by greg 2 right there goes michael t flynn out the back door of the trump white house now that we re finished applauding his resignation folks are wondering about a couple of things first can he be prosecuted under the logan act and second should he be prosecuted there are of course problems at least three problems the first is the logan act is of questionable constitutionality it s never been really tested in court nobody has ever been prosecuted for violating the logan act not even george logan after whom the law was named the second problem is more political the recently appointed attorney general of these united states is jefferson beauregard sessions iii who is undoubtedly tickled pink that the logan act is of questionable constitutionality it gives sessions the perfect opportunity to practice looking severe without having to actually do anything the third problem is this just what the fuck is the logan act and what was it intended to do the logan act is a perfect example of how history which can be singularly cool has a reputation for being mind numbingly dull i mean we re talking revolutions and piracy on the high seas and that s some seriously exciting shit right there but reading the logan act well it s not long enough to actually put you to sleep but it ll make your mind wander anyway here s the history not actually a french ship attacking a u s merchant vessel but c mon it s pirate stuff we and by we i mean these united states had us a revolution i m assuming you already know this a few years later france had its own revolution france had been pretty helpful to our revolution and they quite understandably expected the new u s to give them a reach around we didn t at least not to their satisfaction so france got pissy and authorized french ships to plunder american merchant ships president john adams sent some envoys to france to straighten out the mess the french listened to their arguments then politely told the envoys s il vous plaît uriner une corde or words to that effect the envoys returned to the u s reported they d failed miserably then went to a bar and made rude remarks about the french i m not entirely sure about that last bit with the bar and rude remarks but it s what i would have done if the french had told me to go piss up a rope enter dr george logan a philadelphia quaker logan decided he couldn t screw things up any worse so he sailed to france chatted with charles maurice de talleyrand périgord and the good folks of the french directory and hey bingo the french changed their minds and stopped the plundering yay sounding of trumpets release of doves everybody wins right dr george logan quaker and freelance diplomat right except for the
