Maggie's Farm

We are a commune of inquiring, skeptical, politically centrist, capitalist, anglophile, traditionalist New England Yankee humans, humanoids, and animals with many interests beyond and above politics. Each of us has had a high-school education (or GED), but all had ADD so didn't pay attention very well, especially the dogs. Each one of us does "try my best to be just like I am," and none of us enjoys working for others, including for Maggie, from whom we receive neither a nickel nor a dime. Freedom from nags, cranks, government, do-gooders, control-freaks and idiots is all that we ask for.

Weds. fun links

Orangutans threatened by Green Movement (h/t Jungleman). Orangs are almost people, aren't they? Without clothing, haircuts, etc.? See our photo of a well-groomed female Orang lounging at the beach.


The Great College Hoax. (h/t, Dr. Helen)


How is your fastball reaction time? (h/t, Theo)


If movie posters were honest (h/t, Wall St. Fighter)


Checklists for everything. I could not live without them. Especially my travel checklists. Without them, I'd end up at the beach without my flip-flops, in the woods without camera and ammo, in Italy without walking shoes, and in Nantucket without my red shorts.

You simply cannot post a picture like that without some explanation, even if you have to make it up.

I don't know why, but I was going to say the same thing.

Title was Fun Links, wasn't it?
I do most of the photos around this joint. My prerogative, as Editor.
#2 bd on 2009-01-21 11:26 (Reply)
Orangs definitely have the most human eyes of all the great apes. It's striking.
#3 rightwingprof (Link) on 2009-01-21 11:29 (Reply)
not again i don't believe it but i bet as editor you get to have fun links with these tarts and if you ever came to my humanities classes you would see just how utterly vacuous these tarts are as they are all sybarites in disguise looking for a wealthy man such as yourself to give them sand to lie about upon while you bring them margaritas and cover them in lotion and it is time for my nap.

.14 seconds... Home Run!
#5 The Distributist (Link) on 2009-01-21 12:35 (Reply)
14 seconds? You cad. Don't you believe in foreplay? You do realize, I assume as I assume assumptions about everything I know about, that a woman not pleasured by foreplay is not pleasured and is merely suffering for the sake of her man's happiness and manly feelings.

Disgusting hussy.

That was point-one-four seconds - .14, I say!! Not fourteen! My goodness, she was throwing the high heater from the mound! I had to swing the bat fast or getting around the bases was not even going to be an option! Taking balls was not a possibility. If it is any consolation, the home run was attained by skimming the foul pole.

Now, what inning was it? The 3rd base coach is sending some confusing signs... gotta pay attention.
#5.1.1 The Distributist (Link) on 2009-01-21 13:43 (Reply)
Nicely done. Best I could get was 0.18

Swing and a miss.
Swing and a miss.
Base hit!

Well sure it's your prerogative but 'Fun Links'? How about: "Tina, a waitress by profession, is studying to be a brain surgeon. She lives in Wasilla, Alaska and thinks blog commenters are wonderful. She...'

faculty wife did a great job. The "bring them margaritas and cover them in lotion" may send me for a nap too. The "utterly vacuous" bit was a trifle irrelevant of course, because nobody wants to speak with these ladies.

But please, do not let my minor quibbles stop you from further Fun Links. This one is as good or better than anything Theo Spark ever did.

Now now, faculty wife... Remember "consider the lilies of the field. They toil not, neither do they spin, but Solomon in all his glory is not arrayed as one of these..."

She may or may not be studyin' to be a brain surgeon, but on this day after the grandiose Inauguration, she certainly cheered up my 83-year-old husband's viewpont on life.

Why, I am just home from church filled with the spirit of Jesus and what do I see! What would Jesus say? What would Jesus do?

I am going to pray for BD.
#9 abigail on 2009-01-21 13:24 (Reply)
Abigail dear, do not fret. It is most obvious even to the newly ensconced on this blog of Fleshdom that the men, our editor included, adore those rounded mounds of flesh and those pert bosoms with their rocket, tanned nipples and those long slender legs that make a man blind to the goodness of all that is good and very good. Damned be him who cries, "Enough!", because for them there will never be enough wanton delights. I am going to church. I feel the need upon my own flesh to wash it clean with pure thoughts.

Todays email laugh from my crazy cousin. Everybody has at least one crazy cousin. Right?

One day, long, long ago, there lived a woman who did not whine, nag or bitch. But it was a long, long time ago, and it was just that one day. The End
#10 Patina on 2009-01-21 13:33 (Reply)
I bet she was bitching about not getting any foreplay.

Abigail? Do you get down on your knees to pray? I bet the men here get down on their knees to worship at the altar of sandy snatch.

Oh my. Did I say something naughty?

I love Ladies Day on the Farm!
#11 The Distributist (Link) on 2009-01-21 13:46 (Reply)
Pity she'll have such a tan line.....

Did someone say there were other links in this post?
#12 Gwynne on 2009-01-21 14:20 (Reply)
men don't stand a snowballs chance...

..women own 90% of the money & 100% of the good thing.

not to mention their superior intellect, & feisty / ballsy attitude here on the farm... and some of 'em shore smell purdy

Always good to hear from The Sisters of The Holy Rosary. A tad misguided, but I'll be praying for all of you. As the newly appointed Chairman of the Board of Directors, BD has to get my permission to show these beautiful woman.

I give it to him every time. Please pray for the frost bite in his hands. I think Jesus would give BD two thumbs up!!

The man runs a damn fine site.
#14 jappy on 2009-01-21 15:15 (Reply)
Perverts all! Why, I truly believe everyone of you turgid neanderthals would give that sand sluice a bit of foreplay. How you crow and snort at that moistened flesh - bodies undulating to
take into hand the glory of prolonged touch and tongue while your wives slave and toil over dinner and your sweatened laundry. For her, who once held you in thrall, a quickie while she's brushing her teeth. I never!

That's hot. I think I've read your work before. Where have you been published?

You forgot 'turgid'.

I'm on my Blackberry in the Romance section at the library looking for the latest Priscilla Plantagenet. Oh my she writes the most dripping romance ever but I still do not allow mine eyes to envision the actual act of ripping the bodice and surely never would I allow my cinematic mind to see the flesh. This blog should be ashamed of itself as you get the men in a lather and they pay no attention to the important stories in the links and that is just a shame and why I'm in the library in the first place to get important information in case you were wondering.
