Shipman, I am Super Hose because the Army of Steve was full. My nickname is Super Hose from time gone by when I hosed the pavement of Sea World of Ohio during the summer break of my high school years where my under age status to work third shift was overlooked because I was the best to ever hose vomit, ABC gum, cigarette butts and duck pooh down the sewer holes that bleed a goulash of refuse into the greater Geauga Lake.
I was the best that ever opened up a nozzle on straight stream, I could hose four stadiums in one night even if one was just a pint sized arena where Boomer preformed his doggie tricks. I was so good that they gave me my own Cushman vehicle to pull my hose reel and gave me assistant lead status without extra pay or anybody to lead. I think the “promotion” mostly allowed me to drive the Cushman, but it wasn't like anyone else was using it at two in the morning.
Then there was the night where Super Hose faced his greatest adversary other than the ones with duck feathers that crapped on freshly hosed blacktop - no respect. The hose was laying a fine spray pushing discarded paper products around the holding tank where Shamu swam throughout the night, when Shamu decided to investigate the commotion.
Being a thorough show off in all occasions Shamu came us with his big scary face extended above the retaining wall and watched me for a bit. Then the hose noticed that the clowning orca had opened up his mouth and was extending his tongue for the hose to give him a flossing pet on his bristling red mouth organ. I considered briefly, but the fact that the pool was deep and no safety monitor was present made my contemplation an illicit tongue pet a non-starter.
Feeling slightly embarrassed at my lack of bravery I considered also very briefly giving the great big ham a free dental cleaning with my 100 psi Water Pick, but that evil act I did not do and instead shrugged him off and continued my work. The hose didn't abuse animals other than a few quick occasional shots at the alligators who scared me by moving around in their swim hole in the middle of the night. No the hose was kind to animals for the most part and besides he knew that Shamu was the star of the show. Super Hose needed the employment for walking around money until he matriculated to the Boat School and began his naval service.
Thus ends the ballad of the Super Hose. Apologies for the misuse of bandwidth.

[ABCNEWS.GO] Mere hours after reliably Democrat Chicago, aka The Windy City or Mobtown ... home of Al Capone, a succession of Daleys, Barak Obama, and Rahm Emmanuel,... rang in 2016 with fireworks along its famous riverwalk, the city reported its first homicide.
A 24-year-old man was shot in the chest a few minutes after 2 a.m. in Chicago's Bronzeville neighborhood, according to police. He was pronounced dead at the scene and the shooter is on the lam, a police spokeswoman said. The investigation is ongoing.

Ebola virus and bats have been waging a molecular battle for survival that may have started 25 million years ago, according to a new study. The findings shed light on the biological factors that determine which bat species may harbor the virus between outbreaks in humans and how bats may transmit the virus to people. Article at link is pretty short but it looks like bats may be the long sought reservoir for Ebola.
[RT] A man in Russia’s Far East woke up in the morgue after having been declared dead, local media report. "Ohhhh! My head! I really put one on! I feel like I died!"
Before the incident, he had been doing vodka rounds with friends – and after the “miraculous awakening,” he went back to the party. "Shay! I wuzh jusht here! Wuzhn't I?"
The man who was mistakenly taken for dead passed out after drinking too much, local Khasanskiye Vesti newspaper reported Wednesday. "Hey, y'all! Hold my vodka and watch what happenzh when I do thish!"
However, it is not clear when exactly the incident took place. Khasanky Region is a coastal area in Russia’s Far East, which is home to some 35,000 people scattered over the territory of 4,100 square kilometers. It's in Primorsky Krai, and it borders North Korea and China. The primary activities noted in Khasanski Raion are guarding the border and drinking.
His friends called an ambulance "Hello? Hello? Is this the ambulance?"
"No. This is the driver!"
and medical staff hastily declared the man dead "Hmmm... What's your opinion, Dr. Quincy?"
"I'd say he was titzup."
before taking him to the morgue, according to the daily. [Clang!] "Have a nice sleep!"
However, the man eventually came back to his senses (somewhat) – only to find himself in a mortuary freezer. "Whoof! Colder'n a mortuary freezer in here!"
“That night the local morgue was filled to its capacity, "Shay! Wassha matta wit' youse guys? Dis is da deadest party I've ever been at!"
the bodies were not only on the shelves, but also on the floor of the freezer room, where our ‘dead’ hero was allocated,” Aleksey Stoyev, a police spokesman, told the newspaper. "Scuzhe me! 'Scuzhe me! Sorry!"
“At some point, the man woke up, failing to understand where he was. [Hic!] "Any o' youse guys know where we are?... Well, don't ever'body answer at once!"
It was very dark and cold. In addition his brain was foggy due to the influence of alcohol. "Whoa! M'brain feelzh all foggy! I wonder why?"
In the darkness, he felt someone’s completely cold limbs and in fear rushed to the door. But it was locked.” "Hey! Unlock th'goddamm door!"
He started screaming for help "Help! Help!... C'mon youse guys! Help me holler!"
and pounding on the door. His calls drew the attention of the morgue’s guard, "Hmmm... Noise. We don't usually get a lot of noise around here."
who reported the situation to the doctors. "Y'know, do, this is the noisiest morgue I've ever guarded!"
The latter thought that the guard was imagining things, according to the local report. Nonetheless, out of cautiousness the doctors called police. "Operator! Gimme the police!"
Opening the door police were met by the ‘resurrected’ man who in panic ran out of the room, according to the department of criminal investigations. Police questioned the man and released him. "What do you mean, 'you used a dead guy as a battering ram?' The door opens inward!"
Returning to the place of the party, he found his friends were still drinking, but this time commemorating him. "Poor Whatsisname!"
"Yeah. Poor Whatsisname! Pour me another!"
The person who opened the door was so shocked that he fainted, Khasanskiye Vesti says. [THUD!] "Is he... dead?"
"I don't think so!"
"Are you?"
"I'm not sure. Gimme a drink."
The commemoration ceremony was quickly revamped into a re-birthday party. "Happy re-birthday to youse!
Happy re-birthday to youse!
Happy re-birthday dear Whatsisname..."

I thought if you died at a Russian drinking party they just pitched you out on the tundra until it's time to clean up. The triage team must have been doing Jell-O shots.

No word on whether his kidneys accompanied him back to the party.
This will affect how prices get reported in This Week in Guns. This column reports on prices offered for certain classes of firearms in private sales. As I look over the listings, I also look over every exemplar for each state to determine if that sales proposal is indeed private. If the seller in the description requires the sale go through an FFL, it qualifies as a dealer sale, and thus not a private sale. A number of dealers post on Armslist as unregistered private individuals, much the same as used car dealers "curbstone" some of their inventory to make it appear the vehicles are for sale by a private individual.
As a rule prices for firearms for those dealers are much lower than for private individuals, and is sometimes a dead giveaway as to who is selling.
The effect will likely be the median price for each state market will rise considerably, and the total average price for all states will rise only slightly, but they will rise. At the moment I am already seeing much higher prices for firearms in both rifles and handguns, but at the moment I can't tell if the rise is seasonal or due to the new proposed rules. Only time will tell.
Payne was at the center of the controversy at Bundy Ranch almost two years ago. He and a number of other militia leaders effectively ran Oathkeepers from the ranch after they decided to leave because of a spurious report of a federal government armed attack. Payne called Oathkeepers cowards, so it is sufficient to say he didn't win any friends.
Another beef Oathkeepers have is that Payne claimed to be a former Army Ranger, when he was not. What Payne did, was to run government-hired snipers off from the Bundy ranch, effectively collapsing the government effort.
Mike Vanderboegh called Payne an agent provocateur, but what if it is true? If Payne manages another government backdown, bad guy or not he is achieving the goals of Patriots and militias alike.
Switching gears, you know the saying about why have a .45? Because they don't make a .46? It appears they do...
Loads.

[ABCNEWS.GO] Rwandan President Paul Kagame declared Friday he will run for a third term in office after his second seven-year term expires in 2017, a move opposed by the U.S., a key ally.
The announcement in his end-of-year message follows last month's constitutional referendum in which 98 percent of Rwandans voted to approve a revised Constitution to allow Kagame to extend his tenure in office.
"You requested me to lead the country again after 2017. Given the importance and consideration you attach to this, I can only accept," Kagame said
Kagame became president in 2000 after being Rwanda's de facto leader since the end of the country's genocide in 1994. He is credited with stabilizing the country and promoting economic growth after the mass killings, but critics say he is an authoritarian ruler who does not tolerate opposition and he is accused of human rights One man's rights are another man's existential threat. abuses.
Rwanda's political opposition criticized the referendum as undemocratic and the U.S., a key Rwandan ally, has opposed Kagame's bid to stay in power.
Appearing to address that, Kagame said "even misguided or deliberately harmful criticism can be the start of a conversation ... what is important is that we respect each other."
Other leaders in East and Central Africa have prolonged their rule.
In 2005, Ugandan politicians changed their Constitution, allowing President Yoweri Museveni to seek re-election in 2006 and 2011. He is running again in 2016.

[DAWN] The education department of Balochistan ...the Pak province bordering Kandahar and Uruzgun provinces in Afghanistan and Sistan Baluchistan in Iran. Its native Baloch propulation is being displaced by Pashtuns and Punjabis and they aren't happy about it... government has launched an inquiry to verify the appointment orders and educational certificates of more than 50,000 teachers across the province.
Provincial Secretary Education Saboor Kakar said that education officers of 32 districts have been directed to launch probe into educational certificates and appointment orders of the teachers.
Earlier, an anti-corruption court sentenced three government officers to seven years in prison over recruitment of fake teachers in Balochistan's education department.
The department has launched the verification process in the aftermath of repeated reports about presence of hundreds of fake and ghost teachers in Balochistan.
The scrutiny and verification process of teachers' appointments and educational certificates would take two months to complete. "We will not spare any fake teacher", said Kakar.
Deputy commissioners and treasury officers are also taking part in the verification process besides district education officers.
