The MMA event hinges on that reality. It just would not look good having Catherine up against a man . . . even if Cookie65 turns out to be Pee Wee Herman.
Once again Steers I just wanted to remind you that it appears your getting crazier and crazier. Your little story about the old Democratic guy screaming inflammatory race baiting language is a good example.
I thought the same things reading what you say Richard. I’ll be at the Snooty Frog at 5 if you’d like to discuss it in more detail.
We’ve all heard about Papa John and Denny franchisee John Metz in Florida who both claim ObamaCare is going to hurt their business (Papa John is going to charge 15 cents more for his pizza and cut hours for his employees, while Mr. Metz is going to put on a 5% surcharge which customers can deduct from their tips to waiters if they wish). Well, guess loss of business has caused both to renege on their business plans. Papa John says it was all just a misunderstanding, and Mr. Metz has taken the counsel of Denny’s CEO John Miller and assures all that his Denny stores will not impose a 5% surcharge. Apparently, Denny’s all over the nation are getting heat from customers and Mr. Miller will not have it. Just two Republicans who wanted to bad mouth Obamacare, and now retreat because their business is down because of their desire to badmouth. Two American patriot heroes.
Meeting at Snooty Frog to fist fight is so high school. One point of caution: Marines, even old Marines learned and remember dirty fighting. That being said, I’ve eaten at the Snooty Frog and it was excellent. A surprise hidden in Cameron Park.
Steers, it looks like you were wrong about the Twinkies business, among other things, want me to bring them anyway?
I’m bringing both! See you there
Kinda got to agree with the Col. on this one…. As an old biker whose enjoyed spending the better part of his life drinking & fighting in bars & Roadhouses, I’d be just a little embarrassed to pick a fight in some joint called The Snooty Frog….
Funny RJ… I’ve seen your pic inside PJ’s Roadhouse, so yes, I can’t quite imagine you parking your Harley outside a joint named the Snooty Frog. Same for me with my Triumph. As for Mr Dan Smyth, sir, your cockiness is misplaced. The President won re-election by 1% of the popular vote – a lot LESS than his last election. His support HAS fallen. The House is still in Republican control and there are now 30 Republican Governors, more than at any time since 1960. Sure, you picked up a couple seats in the Senate, and what was the outcome? They have ALREADY said they won’t be passing a budget this year – 4th year in a row.
One other point about fist fights. They aren’t like they are in the movies where one takes multiple fists in the face and comes away with a little band-aid over one eyebrow. In a real fist fight, one good blow to the face can split it open with devastating effect. And, this is, of course, why the law considers the fist a deadly weapon.
But, this may make history: The Fight At The Snooty Frog. Complete with a TV movie. R.J., get down there and be a peace maker — buy them drinks until they pass out.
Steers, I assume when you make reference to “both,” you mean a weapon and a Twinkie. If that’s the case, and I assume it is, then you’ve crossed the line and I’ve made my point. I suggest you have your permit with you tonight, you’re going to need it.
Thinking about this fight and who would be legally responsible should injury occur. Under causation, but for the invitation to fight, the fight and injury would not have occurred. On the other hand, the Marine who has superior dirty fighting skills must accept some of the responsibility, because one does not hurt the other if one has superior capabilities. I think, given but for, the judge will go 51/49 on this one.
ADDED: MtDemocrat, get your photographer down to the Snooty Frog ASAP — this will look great on tomorrow’s front page. If one is knocked out, roll him over so we can see a full frontal view.
ADDED: And, in conclusion, isn’t this challenge to fight the silliest thing we’ve ever had on the MtDemocrat thread? Who calls for a physical fight unless they are a teenager, in years or in mind?
A change of topic. I recently said, somewhat in jest, that we can reduce our $16 Trillion debt by moving the decimal point making it a $16 Billion dollar debt. Tea/Republicans scream that we must cut or destroy all programs for the poor and middle class (the moochers and takers) because deficit reduction is the most pressing problem in the United States (forget that jobs are more likely to be the most pressing problem in the United States).
We have fiat money — all our Treasury Bill obligations are payment in dollars. Any government that controls its own currency cannot go bankrupt. We could today print (a wire transfer from the Federal Reserve to the Treasury for $16 Trillion) money to pay our obligations. Our debt gone and any new debt handled by another wire transfer. No government with authority over its own money can ever go bankrupt. So, should we take a pause and look to jobs first and deficit reduction second? Oh, inflation? I’ve heard this for years — a $16 Trillion debt should have caused inflation — where is it?
Ladies and gentlemen we have a split decision….Judge Dink Lane scores the fight 115-110 for the contender fighting out of the blue corner, “Round-house” Richard….. Judge Cookie65 scores the fight 117-111 for the contender fighting out of the Red corner, Ken “The Hurricane” Steers…And, judge James Longhoffer sees the fight 50-118 for the new undisputed Snooty Frog Champion Of The World, Ken “The Hurricane” Steers!!!…..
R.J., you got my score card backwards. It’s 118-50 for the new Snooty Frog champion of Cameron Park — the fighting Marine Richard with Semper Fi tattooed on his chest. Once a Marine, always a Marine. It was no contest.
Colonel, please put your mind at ease. My path in life has taken me through both the military and law enforcement retiring for another government agency and eventual my own business. I’m the father of three girls and have a wife of 30 years who is tougher than most republicans and a great woman. Over the years I have been taught to be in control of any situation and quite honestly my life depended the I do just that on many occasions. At this moment I’m ashamed of having pushed Steers buttons knowing very well what the eventual outcome would be, it was obviously bad judgment on my part. Mr. Garon and most others on this thread please accept my apology, as for the rednecks you are what you are, the vote was obviously rigged..
Apology unnecessary, but accepted.
insult to injury – LINK – Mediation between Hostess, union fails
Phil, any chance the judge will declare a fraud on the company? One can only hope.
Leave Ken Steers alone! Isn’t it obvious he is compensating for other shortcomings?
….A week after two states legalize marijuana the company that makes Twinkies goes out of business…Seems like horrible timing.. LOL.
Here’s a little reminder and momento of “Fair and Balanced” Wait did I mention Hypocrites…damn wel there ya go have at it b%tches! I still have 0 respect for democrats and liberals let alone the “Woosies ” of the republican party.

Gibney, are you OK? What’s your twenty? Need 911?
Well I enjoyed my Filet Mignon Oscar at dinner. The owner of the Snooty Frog is a fantastic chef. A couple of friends came over after a while because I was getting lonely. I didn’t order dessert because I brought plenty of Cup Cakes and Twinkies. Now I read that there was going to be a fist fight. This stated by the same crybaby who calls other people 5th graders. Richard the worst thing I would do is, as promised, to stuff you with Hostess products. Richard I’ve seen many like you. You are a coward, a hater and a liar. You never would have lasted one day in Marine Corps boot camp. As far as a bar fight? Pure school yard hyperbole. All you had to do Richard is come over and introduce yourself. You would have been a hero to all the democrat socialist in the County. But you didn’t, did you?
Phil there’s not a damn thing wrong with me…Vin Veritas…
Ken, sorry we missed you. had anther engagement to attend to. Alas, I wish all, despite my opinions politically, a Happy Thanksgiving…despite waht democrats reading Howard Zinn believe …heheh…giggle LMAO HAHAHAHA …sorry can’t help myself when it comes to reality…
Wait not done yet..hers a #1 samsh hit for my Maoist John Garon….

John all your dreams will come true FREE EVERYTHING FROM OBAMA !!! …stupid ass useful idiot….
Been drinking Gibney?
Crybaby? No, I’m a laughing baby. It’s the losers who are crybabies, as nothing is going to change that Barrack Hussein Obama crushed Willard Mitt Romney by the will of the people. Cry us all a river for the next four years, and eight years after that with Hillary as the President. Must be painful to see the people as winners. Let me say that one more time for emphasis — Mitt was crushed. P.S. Looks like the top 2% will be paying more taxes.
Yes Richard it’s true I have thus imbibed…why because the democrats made me do it! LMAO! Now I am awaiting a new prohibition…Thank God for good beer and booze (for now till you tax the crap out of it..)for you stupid rat bastards will make alcoholics of all of us sane people…heheh LMAO wooohooo!…stupid useful idiots.
Through the looking glass, Colonel . . . Welcome to the land of wish. Twenty eight years late, but still, welcome!
Phil, the latest 1984 rumor I’ve heard is that the EV electors will revolt and elect Mitt as President of the United States. I don’t know — sounds kinda desperate to me. But, guess hope springs eternal.
Steers, your obvious lack of empathy for me and others and your low degree of anxiety about consequences clearly indicates that you view your self as exceptional within your own world. I would like to collect your last dozen or so posts and ask a Psychologist friend to review them, but only if you would take the results seriously, what do say?
Mr. Gibney, guess the Navy no longer issues a daily ration of rum anymore. And, no booze allowed on board. As I understand it, only the doc has booze to give a little zip to injured sailors/naval aviators after an accident. Wonder if the Captain has a small supply? What the hell is a ship of the line without rum?
LINK – . . . As Winston realises he loves Big Brother he dreams of a public trial and an execution; however the novel itself ends with Winston, presumably still in the Chestnut Tree Café/Snooty Frog, contemplating the face of Big Brother
Had the book continued it would have revealed that Winston was not executed, rather assigned as a check out clerk at the local WalMart, forever destined to a part time minimum wage job with no benefits. Hell on earth.
Speaking of WalMart and their billions of profit and the four WalMart kids each having fortunes of $50 (?) billon, wonder why they couldn’t pay their employees a decent wage and benefits? Their business would increase with company PR advertising that “we don’t screw our employees anymore, so come on down.”
