Play nice!

There are other myths besides the Greek myths. But if you want to cite the Greek myths, he could be Proteus, the Old (yet hair-dyed) Man of the Sea, who could assume any shape.
He could be the Sirens, who lured
sailorsvoters to their doom with their irresistible song “electable….electable…”He could be Procrustes, the ogre whose bed fit any guest, because he would lop off anything which protruded over the edge or rack the guest out to fit the bed—much as Romney does to his political positions.
He could be the Shirt of Nessus, the shirt soaked in the blood of the evil Centaur Nessus who tried to carry off Heracles’ wife and, when Heracles killed him with a poisoned arrow, Nessus told her to soak a shirt in his (poisoned) blood, and that she should give this shirt to Heracles when she feared he was losing his love. The shirt, of course, poisoned Herakles and stuck to his skin, ultimately killing him—sort of the way the MSM hopes to kill the GOP by wrapping it in Romney’s Mormon underwear.

iOwnTheWorld is running a funny caption contest for my Manhattan Mini Storage photos.
I have to judge the winners.
So far I like ‘More Secure Than Eric Holder’s Job.’

That’s hilarious!!

I wish I was good at photoshop!
Since this is an open thread. Remember that raging racist guy I videotaped the first day of OWS?
The video went sort of viral and is now over 100K views and nearing 4 thousand comments and counting. Well now since he’s famous on youtube now, he actually made this response to it and sent it to me saying: “Perhaps I’m a little more difficult to dismiss in this one…”
I’m going to include it in an end-of-the-year blog post about OWS. Take a journey to the center of the OWS mind…come along if you dare..

I thought we already sold them F-15′s back in the Reagan and Daddy Bush days.
A friend who was in USAF over there told me that the Saudis are totally dependent on US and Brit and Euro contractors to maintain their aircraft as the young princes thst make up the Saudi AF all want to be pilots and think maintenance work is beneath them and they don’t trust their countrymen who aren’t in the royal family not to sabotage the aircraft.

And this is why all islamic immigration needs to stop. They can’t even trust each other…they use US as a buffer. Screw that. Let them all stay over there and fight it out amongst themselves.
I mentioned earlier that her super PAC shifted to Romney. Now this…

WTF is going on???
@ The Osprey:
It’s not just their air force. The entire Saudi military is like that. They like to fly jets, and ride around in tanks, but they have no idea how to maintain any of it.
If they think the western contractors are going to follow them into combat and keep their stuff running for them, they’re delusional.
@ lobo91:
Fancy seeing you at this hour! Saudis have a lot of slave labor, but I would be surprised if they trained them to do anything skilled. When the Arab Winter shows its true face, I imagine the Royals will cut and run, leaving the radicals to turn it truly Islamic and dysfunctional.
Did you get another MRI? Have you asked anyone in the ex-pat community where you should get surgery?
@ yenta-fada:
I got the second MRI on Christmas Eve, but the doctor’s on vacation until January 6th.
On the plus side, I think that suggests that he’s not a Muslim…

You should ask the vet next door. Not to do the surgery, but he may know the local medical people who have pets.

Sounds like the battle tactics of the gall-monging Tin Cans from back in the day. They terrorized the alien populations, but couldn’t hit the broad side of a barn when it came to the Humans. Maybe that’s why they fought for a thousand yahren!

Wouldn’t it be appropriate if said contractors turned around to their employers, threw down their tools, and ranted: “Now you will be at the mercy of the JOOOOOOS!” just as the Air Raid sirens go off!

Sounds like a good contingency to me.
The Osprey wrote:
I know someone who was one of those contractors. He made his money (a lot) and got the hell outta there. When his contract was close to expire he said he could feel the pressure and distrust from the Sauds.
Oh, and manual labor, Saudis, forgittabboutitt!
