Names
What's in a name?
What happens when a product is renamed? It's usually because it was crap and it wouldn't sell.
What happens when a company renames? Usually not much. They got bought out, had to restructure because of financials, etc. No biggie.
But what happens when the rename...I mean rebrand themselves after a scandal.
Ah the light comes on a little brighter now.
They have been bought out by the same people again and now carry the name of...

After all that has gone on in the USA in the last week with NDAA and the drone thing in N. Dakota and this and that. Or HERE or HERE or HERE.What happens when a product is renamed? It's usually because it was crap and it wouldn't sell.

Do I need to keep going?
It doesn't matter what you cover it with. It stinks like horse shit under it all.
So if these folks who are all about training & such can do this to some local Iraqi
So like I posted earlier about False Beliefs. Don't think for a minute you are exempt.
I saw them personally light up civilian cars in the Green Zone because a car got to close as they PASSED the car.
Lost Traditions
I was talking with Bill Nye this morning about butchering hogs. It reminded me of all the old traditions being lost.
Today, most kids if they are asked where meat comes from they will say the grocery store. They have not a clue as to how it gets to that point.
My wife grew up more hick-i-fied than I did. When she was 6 or 7, was her job to scrape the hair off of hogs that were being processed. You had to do that so you could render out the lard.
They didn’t use a 55gal barrel. Her Pappy had a 150gal cast iron kettle. They would lower one side of the hog in, let it set and while the other sitting they would start scraping.
Can you imagine the horror of CPS if the saw a 6 year old using a 12” razor sharp butcher knife. OMG!!!
Once they split the hog open, the casing was pulled out and taken to the creek to be washed out for sausage. The head was cracked open for hogs head cheese. The whole animal was used.
The same went on with deer. At the end of the day all the deer were strung up from the 7 family hunters and the processing line began. Again all were used.
The same thing with ducks, rabbits, squirrels, chicken, etc.
One delicacy was the squirrel brains. My wife would remember her Granny sitting down with a plate of squirrel heads and a small metal mallet.
WHACK…WHACK…slurp. I don’t think so.
The traditions of our ancestors are a treasure trove of information for us. All we need to do is take the time to talk to them. Let them mentor us. I have also found that used book stores are a good hunting area for old books that cover these things.
Irregardless of how & where we learn them, we must not let them die.
Texas Group Sues to Allow Confederate Flag License Plates
Just like Brock said they would.

The L.A. Times reports the Texas division of the group called Sons of Confederate Veterans, a 30,000-member group out of Tennessee, is now filing suit saying the state DMV infringed on the group’s right to free speech by rejecting their plate.
“The 1st Amendment clearly protects controversial speech,” the group said in a statement to the Times. It cited the DMV board’s approval of a plate that “is offensive to Native Americans” because it honors the Buffalo Soldiers, the all-black cavalry that fought Native Americans in the 1800s.
“The board seeks to bar the Texas SCV from expressing their viewpoint while allowing all other groups to express their viewpoint. This type of restriction is exactly the type which the 1st Amendment is designed to erase,” the statement said.
I UNDERSTAND HIM COMPLETELY
Hi Sweetheart,
I am sorry about getting into an argument about putting up the Christmas lights.
I guess that sometimes I feel like you are pushing me too hard when you want something.
I realize that I was wrong and I am apologizing for being such a hard-headed guy.
All I want is for you to be happy and be able to enjoy the holiday season.
Nothing brightens the Christmas spirit like Christmas lights!
I took the time to hang the lights for you today and now I will be off to go hunting.
Again, I am very sorry for the way I acted yesterday.
I'll be home later.
Love you……
False Beliefs

All you have to do is look at what is happening all around the world.
Danger Room has a post up this morning about the "secret drone war" in the NWT of Pakistan. They don't care if they kill children, blow up houses, etc.
The epicenter of global terrorism, and the CIA's highly classified drone war against extremist groups, is a black hole on the map -- a region of Pakistan off limits to outsiders, and especially Westerners. It’s an area so dangerous that even the Pakistani military avoids it. The CIA may have launched 70 drone strikes in tribal Pakistan in 2011 alone. But Americans, like the rest of the world, have no idea what the area looks like, or who lives there.
Before posting Behram's photos we took a number of measures to confirm as best we could what was being shown. We verified Behram’s bona fides with other news organizations. We sifted through the images, tossing out any pictures that couldn’t correlate with previously reported drone attacks. Then we grilled Behram in a series of lengthy Skype interviews from Pakistan, translated by Akbar, about the circumstances surrounding each of the images.
Hell, the folks in North Dakota saw just this happen this past weekend. All for some missing cows. The only thing missing was the Hellfires on the drone.
David Koresh thought the same thing. Just like Randy Weaver at Ruby Ridge.
Just give it some time.
