Does everyone know that "NINCOMPOOPERY" was used in Auntie Mame by Dwight Babcock, the trustee of The Knickerbocker Bank set as a watchdog to curb the influence of the Bohemian antics of Auntie Mame after she "inherited" young Patrick from her highly conservative brother?
ReplyDeleteThat's the first and only time I've ever seen the term used until AOW started to feature it here.
NIncompoop, itself has been around for a looooong time. Don't know whether it's English or purely American, do you?

I heard that about the Daughters of the American Revolution, really hard to believe but a sign of the times I suppose.

FT,
ReplyDeleteAlthough I still enjoy music, I can't enjoy it as much as I used to because of the side effects of gabapentin, the medication that I take for my back and leg pain AND to keep my left leg working.
I am certainly not looking forward the neurological tests that I'll shortly be undergoing (more about that in a post on January 25); however, I have a wonderful neurologist, and maybe he can offer some changes in my medication. I haven't mentioned the side effect about interfering with music, but I will now that I'm going to be undergoing neuro tests anyway.
AOW,
ReplyDeleteIt is good that you are well aware of it. Many people don't, including that oftentimes strange DC( are using the same nasty tactics in Creeping Sharia to silence criticisms of moslems) who used to drop by on your blogsite throwing ignorant and insulting opinions.
By the way, I read about your oncoming neurological test and hope it goes well.
Hope I can continue having conversations people like yourself who are more aware and not afraid to point out the present unpleasant reality.

WLIL,
ReplyDeleteI've seen some of DC's comments over at Creeping Sharia. Yes, in effect, he is silencing voices -- and planting doubt in the minds of those not well informed about Islam.
On January 25, I will have a specific post about my neurological tests. Not looking forward to it! I'm hoping that my physical problems don't worsen. I can live with the situation as it is now, but living in a worse condition would be hell for both Mr. AOW and me. All my neurological problems stem from a car accident I had in 2005 when I was rear-ended at a four-way stop sign by an illegal. Get in an accident with an illegal, and expect no settlement or a puny settlement.
AOW,
ReplyDeleteI just replied to one of DC belittling and threatening comment to me, though it was a depressing task and waste of time to reply to any of his pompous comments.
Indeed, he appear to be planting doubts and also confusion. I have a suspicions that he is out to silence criticsm of moslems and to promote particular group of moslems. To me all groups of moslems are the same, whether they are called salafis, radical or moderates. they are all equally dangerous. It is depressing that in this time and age, there is still people like DC who tried to silence crticism of moslems, due to their own vested interest and ignorance.
Just hope that you and Mr AOW will continue in stable health and continue to live life to the fullest. I know it is not easy to cope, if one is not in the best of health.

The top people in CAIR should be imprisoned for being involved in genocide, as they are indeed a fund-raising front for HAMAS.
ReplyDeleteHowever, it must be pointed out that these nuts are in a long line of various kooks claiming to discover American before Columbus and the Viking settlement on Newfoundland. Check into the crazy claims about the Kensington stone and Newberry stone.
WLIL,
ReplyDeleteDo you have a link to that thread in which Damien Charles belittled and threatened you?
Dmarks,
ReplyDeletethe Kensington stone and Newberry stone
I'll look those up.

ReplyDeleteWLIL,
ReplyDeleteI went to that thread at Creeping Sharia. I see that DC is still saying the same old things. Blah, blah, blah. He absolutely refuses to look at the EVIDENCE!
I am sure that DC is ruining many sites with his comments, which amount to little more than spam. Sheesh.
AOW,
ReplyDeleteThis DC person shaken me abit. He is such a horrible person. He even make me feel afraid of criticising moslems. As you know moslems are extremely intolerant of any criticism, especially any part to do with their islamic faith and would even go into violent frenzy. IT seems like he only can be critical and us are not allowed to be critical. I just hope he don't know where I am located in. As it is, it is a big risk for me to criticise islamics because the area where I am living is surrounded by depressing islamic culture and horrible moslems. He is certainly a very ignorant person who just because he is a fan of some moslems, us and others are not allowed to be so critical of moslems. As one of your logo rightly point it out: truth is not hate speech.
WLIL
WLIL,
ReplyDeleteOne of your comments was trapped in Blogger's spam folder.
In all likelihood, DC cannot find you or impact your life in any way! A while back, he threatened me with legal action. Nothing happened. Just hot air.
His goals are intimidation and silencing voices.
I'm curious as to why Creeping Sharia hasn't banned him. DC has been banned from numerous sites, including Jihad Watch and Infidel Bloggers Alliance. I also surmise that he has been banned at Atlas Shrugs.
