San Francisco’s Fleet Week

SF Fleet WeekAstounded that SF still allows this to occur, considering its anti-defense and Sanctuary City stance, Fleet Week survives.

Which means that the Blue Angels will still be performing this weekend over San Francisco Bay — at the altitude of a few hundred feet and over the various ships and yachts of those privileged enough to put themselves there.

And that’s where ol” BZ will be, ladies and gentemen.  On a 175-foot yacht in the middle of San Francisco Bay.  And I’ll be there with cameras and video.

I can’t wait.

Pushing The Envelope, Part XII:

Ken Block Ford Fiesta HFHV[Hat tip — a huge hat tip — to Chris!]

The human being has always pushed the envelope into and beyond the realms of danger.  This is the twelfth of various weekend postings illustrating how restless Man is with the mundane and how he purposely crosses the threshold into danger willingly — and sometimes unwillingly.

So there I was, working on two posts for Monday and one for Sunday — when I’m writing this now.  The internet at my wife’s house had failed miserably until she figured out how to plug the ethernet directly into the Vaio laptop.  I, admittedly, am the House Druid when it comes to anything techno.

Furthermore, I installed a WordPress plug-in about 10 days ago, which caused this blog to disappear entirely from the Blogosphere — much to the thrill of Leftists the world over.  After Bushwack was able to resurrect BZ from its formerly-moribund state (and no, not Fornicalia), I now appear to have issues with some persons visiting via Internet Exploder.  I, myself, use Firefox.

Then, an e-mail to my in-box via one of my EVOC instructors: check out the new Ken Block video.  Ken Block, sponsored by DC shoes, managed to shut down much of downtown San Francisco on a Sunday in order to film Gymkhana 5.  So, Ken Block, take it away (please expand and turn up the sound):

There is no doubt that this man has bushels of talent.  You will note that Ken Block starts on the upper (westbound) deck of the older SF Bay Bridge — which is entirely CLOSED just for this video.

Ken Block Ford Fiesta HFHV InteriorThose familiar with San Francisco will note that he drives up iconic Lombard Street — this is against normal flow.  He also catches sideways air and tags a barrier with his butt.

Ken Block Ford Fiesta HFHV Jump ForwardAbove, Ken Block in a scene right out of the 1968 film “Bullitt,” when the Mustang and Charger crash downhill directly past this same wood-paneled home on the right.

Next comes the Travis Pastrana motocross duel, with a brilliant finish on the road to the Mt Sutro overlook.  The flourish on the cargo barge is a nice touch as well, particularly as it nears the Bay Bridge itself.

Technically, Ken Block drove a 2012 Ford Fiesta HFHV with 650 horsepower, capable of 0 to 60 times of 1.8 seconds.  You will note that the black lever closest to him is for manual shifting, and the silver lever locks the rear brakes, allowing him to drift in oversteer.

Block drives for the Monster World Rally Team.

For the rest of my “Pushing The Envelope” series — and they’re all great ones — please go here.

Have a wonderful day.

The little boy who started a sex change aged eight because he (and his lesbian parents) knew he always wanted to be a girl

Lesbians and Their Boy TammyThis, ladies and gentlemen, is absolute insanity writ large.

And, with the bulk of drugged and greedy and insouciant Free Cheese gatherers in the United States, no one seems to care because — as per normal — the American Media Maggots refuse to cover the story.

Yes: I found this story on UK media.

From the UKDailyMail.com:

The lesbian parents of an 11-year-old boy who is undergoing the process of becoming a girl last night defended the decision, claiming it was better for a child to have a sex change when young.

Thomas Lobel, who now calls himself Tammy, is undergoing controversial hormone blocking treatment in Berkeley, California to stop him going through puberty as a boy.

But Pauline Moreno and Debra Lobel warn that children with gender identity disorder forced to postpone transitioning could face a higher risk of suicide.

Because an 11-year-old is so much in touch with themselves and clearly recognize, at that age, what they wish to be and do in their future.

The mothers say that one of the first things Thomas told them when he learned sign language aged three – because of a speech impediment – was, ‘I am a girl’.

At age seven, after threatening genital mutilation on himself, psychiatrists diagnosed Thomas with gender identity disorder. By the age of eight, he began transitioning.

This summer, he started taking hormone-blocking drugs, which will stop him from experiencing puberty.

Of course, naturally, none of that or those conditions were aided and/or abetted by its lesbian “parents.”  Nah.  Don’t even think about that.  Nothing to see here.  No agenda.  Completely impartial.

The hormone-suppressant, implanted in his upper left arm, will postpone the 11-year-old developing broad shoulders, deep voice and facial hair.

The couple faced intense criticism from friends and family as a result, Ms Moreno told MailOnline.

‘Everybody was angry with us. “How could you be doing this? You might be ruining his whole life!”

Citing a statistic from the Youth Suicide Prevention Program, Ms Moreno noted over 50 per cent of transgender youth will have had at least one suicide attempt by their 20th birthday.

Well, of course, let’s recognize up front that stats mean everything and, when used in conjunction with a Leftist agenda, they can buttress the literal slaughter of a small child.  Ooops.  Sorry.  Politically Incorrect.  Did I just actually write that?  Sorry.  My mitsake.

But here’s the actual Truth:

The couple were married in 1990 by a rabbi and have two older sons and grandchildren. But they insist their sexuality has nothing to do with it.

Okay, I admit: biased.  What the holy fuck was I thinking?  This youth needs to be physically and hormonally and chemically slaughtered.  Oh stop.  Stop.  Did I just write that?  That’s so wrong.  Sorry.  I shouldn’t be writing that.  It’s all about Sugar Mountain.  The skies are purple on their planet.  Filled with sweetness and love and no reality whatsoever because they’ve doomed that child to a lifetime of torture and conflict and mental anguish.

Stop!  Sorry!  Did I just write that?  I am so sorry.  I shouldn’t be writing that.  It’s all about Sugar Mountain and purple skies and goodness and love and understanding.

Thank Gaia, the female lord, for this:

San Francisco, right by Berkeley, is one of four cities in the United States with a hospital that has a program for transgender children.

The University of California San Francisco is home to the Center of Excellence for Transgender Health.

People, when you have new neighbors in your community, you should immediately ask them if they’re from Fornicalia.  If they admit they are, you should shoot them in the head if you wish to not tear your state apart.  Unless, of course, it’s already sundered.

No.  I’m not making this up.
