Who Is IOZ?: Operation Barkarossa

Operation Barkarossa

Those who think I view the Occupy folks in too rosy a light may have a point, although, as with my view of the Tea Party wheezers, a positive opinion shouldn't be taken as a wholesale endorsement. Nevertheless, I defy anyone to tell me that this isn't fucking awesome.

mark r. said...: It's funny - but I fear that when it's time to close down that camp, it'll end be done the hard way instead of the easy way.; 12:00 PM
Happy Jack said...: It's nice to see Michael Moore acting as an inspiration for something besides his bank account.; 12:11 PM
NutellaonToast said...: Man, "Who's the new leader?" is so much better than the riddle that I always ask them: "Who's a good dog?"

I wonder if she enjoys answering that one as much as they enjoy trying to figure out mine!; 12:16 PM

Was that the entire horse or just the hindquarters?; 2:39 PM
Eerily Lackadaisical said...: I posted this in another thread today, then realized it was relevant to this one too.

From Whitman's "Song of Myself":

32

I think I could turn and live with animals, they are so placid and
self-contain'd,
I stand and look at them long and long.

They do not sweat and whine about their condition,
They do not lie awake in the dark and weep for their sins,
They do not make me sick discussing their duty to God,
Not one is dissatisfied, not one is demented with the mania of
owning things,
Not one kneels to another, nor to his kind that lived thousands of
years ago,
Not one is respectable or unhappy over the whole earth.

Flying Piigs said...: Dogs apparently take direct action instead of blogging.

I was unaware Bulgakov did the dog. I thought large black tomcats were more his thing.

The margaritas are on the house.; 1:16 AM
Anonymous said...: Quick question for Eerily since he has no shame: why in that blawg o' yours, the one you never want to talk about, is it that anne holds long conversations with herself and attempts to engage you in dialogue, while you generally ignore her many contributions and instead talk strictly to other dudes? Is it force of habit -- blah blah lady speaking tune out til the boys get here -- or something more sinister?; 4:40 AM
Anonymous said...: You brought the fuckin' Pomeranian occupying?; 8:10 AM
Eerily Lackadaisical said...: to Philboyd - I hadn't thought of IOZ's masthead - but I think you're correct - there is something of Whitman's attitude in IOZ's "dog's don't blog" ...; 8:42 AM
Eerily Lackadaisical said...: to FP@1:16 -

So you liked Behemoth, eh? I first read the novel in the Glenny translation around 1975 and laughed my ass off at his antics. But in 1995, I bought a copy of a different translation for a friend, and I was surprised to see how flat this different translation was. So I agree with the opinions of those cited in the Wiki page for the novel - his translation is really the best, if you're not a purist ...; 8:43 AM
Eerily Lackadaisical said...: to anon@4:40 - why bring up your question here? why not over there?; 8:44 AM
Sorry said...: At another confluence of three rivers, Talkeetna, Alaska (which is about as populous as the Occupy Pittsburgh camp), the mayor is a cat named Mr. Stubbs.

Sun Sunny said...: You are not the one who should just look at other's develepment, you should be the one who make and change the histories. Nobody wants to be normal and live a flat life. So, it is the time now, to do something! As a World of Warcraft player, you should not only focus on the wow power leveling, you should also do more practise to increase your weapons. Farm as much World of Warcraft Gold as possible and get as much rewards as possible. It is the time to make the history now.; 1:45 AM
