We've Moved!

The new blog site is www.anti-strib.com

The RSS feeds shoud be working and most of the bugs have been worked out, mostly.

Under construction, but open for business

The new island themed Anti-Strib 2.0 is now open. Please go to www.anti-strib.com and register to comment.

It will be a mess for a while but we hope to be pretty functional by next Monday.

The Cooling Off Period

I can see that some people still don't get what I'm trying to do.

This week was supposed to be a cooling off period. I hope to allow access to the new blog soon and those that don't mind the contstruction can start posting and commenting soon.

For now, note the stories you would like to blog on and we'll get everything up and running next week.

The new site will be at www.anti-strib.com. Right now that link goes right back to here but that will change in the next day or so.

I hope everyone has comepleted their island research. If that is done I suggest some study on time travel and exotic cocktails.

I may open a final insult thread to allow everyone one last therapuetic jab before joining the civilzed people on the new Anti-Strib 2.0 Island.

Is this a great country or what?

Memorial Day

Anti-Strib 2.0



A sincere thank you to all of the men and women who have served this great nation in any capacity, be it the Armed Services, as a law enforcement officer, fire fighter, EMT first responder, etc.

Most of us serve this country in some fashion, but those who put their lives on the line deserve extra respect and admiration, regardless of their motivation. Freedom is not free, and history has proven time and again that it is not guaranteed. DO NOT take it for granted.

And just for the Anti-Strib community, a special reminder of what we hold so dear:



God bless America.

Sayonara Suckers!

I wish I had time to do an appropriate good bye, but as usual I don’t. I started this a long, long time ago in a galaxy far, far away (Santa Clara County) with a simmering rage at the Red Star for ignoring me and over ½ of Minnesota. (Tim Pawlenty is our governor)

I added some kick ass writers along the way and some clunkers. They are all one and the same, it just depends on the day and the post. I pissed a whole lot of people off and that’s good. You need to have your views challenged if for no other reason than to dust off those rebuttals that you haven’t used in years. For a while we added something to the blogosphere and then one day we didn’t. Time had come for a change.

To quote someone who knew something that few people ever will “We had to kill the village to save it”. The Anti-Strib had to die. The time had come and I knew it. So it shall be.

Thanks for all of the time and effort and even emotion everyone invested in this endeavor. It wouldn’t have been anything without all of you and no one knows that better than me.

And one final note: I have some bad habits and one of them is to get what I want. I got more than I expected from the Anti-Strib and yet somehow a bit less, if that is possible. There were mistakes made that were irreversible. You only learn by doing and if you are doing anything worthwhile you will fuck up. (Eberly’s Rule #1). So with that knowledge I have 2 choices. I can take what I have learned and piss it away like a trillion dollars in an Obama budget, or I can put it to some good use.

I don’t have time for this, I really don’t need this and at times I don't even want it, but sometimes things just need to be done. (you artists should at get that part)

So watch this space for the Anti-Strib 2.0. Re-booted, Re-vamped, yet still reviled. I’ll be back, stronger, meaner, tougher and with much more ammo. The left hasn’t won, nor has the jelly spined "moderate right". I just decided to change the game and up-end the existing apple cart.

No fear, no apologies, no explanations, no regrets. No shit!
