Tampa spared, to the disappointment of reporters

By comparison to the end-of-the-world predictions not much happened in Tampa last night, so local reporters were reduced to breathless coverage of trees harmlessly downed in vacant parking lots, pointing out how bad it COULD HAVE BEEN if there had been cars parked there.

One girl showed us how massive she estimated one tree was, by pointing out that "the trunk is three times as big as me and I'm 5'7"." That cracked us up.

The reality was that she could have put her arms around the tree and touched fingers.....not a big tree at all, but that's all she had to report on. So I guess that's good news for Tampa.

Here are our latest creations from SteelwoodDesigns, all made from welded metal and reclaimed wood.  

Top: post-mod, industrial-chic bar stools made from polished metal and wood taken from a building demolition site here in B'ham. 

Middle: At almost 5 feet long and 30 inches deep, this massive, gorgeous coffee table dominates any room it's in. It weighs like 75lbs. 

Bottom: A small lamp table commissioned by a woman who wants it for her prayer room at home. The top table is 17" across and stands 24".

If anybody's looking for industrial-chic furnishings like this, hit me up either by e-mail if you can find it or leave yours in the comments thread. 

Even animals don't appreciate animal rights nuts

Liberal activists aren't useful for much, but they sometimes make up for it by providing us with laughs at their own expense.

Now I'm not a fan of bullfighting, but it is legal in places like Spain and parts of southern France. It's a tradition dating back centuries and as with most fondly held traditions, militantly intolerant moonbats find it intolerable and want it erased from the culture altogether.

Recently an animal-rights nut decided to jump into a ring during a fight in France and was promptly attacked and gored by the bull he was trying to protect.

It doesn't get any funnier than that.

I've included this helpful picture of what an idiot progressive might look like running from the bull who is about to gore him....hilarious, am I right?

The Left's version of the fashion police

Meet Lynn Yeager a fashion editor at Vogue Magazine. This half troll half clown started the hysteria over Melania Trump wearing heels when she left DC for Houston. 

Melania had on sneakers and work clothes when she landed, but that didn't matter to Yeager who was going to criticize the First Lady no matter what.

Perhaps the hideous Ms. Yeager should take a gander in the mirror before she deems herself a fashion critic who tells other women how they should look.

Charlie Hebdo just lost me

You may remember the French satirical magazine Charlie Hebdo from the time Islamic maniacs slaughtered half their staff a couple of years ago for publishing a cartoon of the pedophile Mohammad. 

Americans by the hundreds of thousands, including me, stood with CH and defended their right to satirize anything without fear of physical harm. 

This is how they repay us, with a cover that translates into "God exists, he drowned the neo-Nazis in Texas". 

What a bunch of despicable vermin! I still defend their right to publish this and nobody has the right to physically harm them for it, but I reserve the right to not send them any more money and to call them despicable vermin.
