I know I've posted this on more than one ocassion, but the message is so prescient, so timely and timeless, that it demands repeating over and over again, until hopefully somebody somewhere gets the message. Every morning we wake to news of some deranged act of hatred and senseless violence. Somewhere there always seems to be someone at war with someone else. If we all actually understood that our time here on this rock is so limited and should be treasured, maybe then we'd stop hurting each other.
Wake up, everybody
No more sleepin' in bed
No more backward thinkin'
Time for thinkin' ahead
The world has changed so very much
From what it used to be
There is so much hatred
War and poverty

Here we are in 1972, with five very pretty flight attendants who are ready to welcome travelers aboard an Air Florida 707 flight. Every one of the is probably a great-grandmother by now. How's that for perspective?

Former President Joe Biden got lost in his own closet at the White House, according to a Secret Service whistleblower who was assigned to Biden while he was the president.
Rep. Josh Hawley - 'I mean, the guy literally stumbling around in the White House residence couldn't find his way out of his own closet. The president of the United States. I mean, this is outrageous. We were lied to.'

Do you like a strong cup of tea?
I found this in Belfast a few years ago.
It's the best tea I've ever tasted.
It's not cheap, but trust me - it's worth it.

We all know - or at least should know - that polls are as worthless as the people who take them, or worse, the people that pay for them. Ya almost have to take for granted that every poll can be crafted and targeted to give the results that were set out to achieve in the first place.
Take this one for instance, per the-independent.com. On what fuckin' planet could these results be accurate if a broad cross-section of people were polled?
'Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez is more well-liked than President Donald Trump, former President Joe Biden, and former Vice President Kamala Harris, according to a new poll. The congresswoman was beat only by former President Barack Obama and his wife, former First Lady Michelle Obama.'

And here we have the Yankees organization trying their damndest to turn us all in to Red Sox fans. WTF is wrong with these pandering jerkoffs? And, more to the point, why do they think we could possibly care about gay pride month if we're not gay? Seriously.

Every year it's the same thing, predicting 'higher than average' number of named storms. Okay, so maybe I'm a fuckin' idiot, but if the numbers are higher every year, aren't THOSE numbers the new average? Asking for a friend...

That Yankee's "Pride" logo must have George Steinbrenner spinning in his grave .
ReplyDeleteThe quote on the Yankee's trying to turn people into Red Soxer's is a killer!

FWIW Thomas Sowell will tell you lack of navigable waterways is one of the reasons why sub-Saharan Africa (not enough navigable stretches) never paid off for the colonial powers. Or the Africans.
ReplyDeleteOur grandparents put up a pool like that for us 4 grandkids. We thought it was huge.
ReplyDeletePretty hard to pass a lie detector if you feel guilty for things you had no control over. Lots of. innocent people framed by a piece of junk.
ReplyDeleteI was not aware about the amount of waterways in the US, that's good to know. Thanks!
ReplyDeleteThe theoretical argument for everybody celebrating "Pride Month" is that theoretically everyone has a friend or relative who is "gay." Meh. I do, but if they were the types who wanted to bore the world about their personal lives for a whole month I wouldn't call them friends. Would anyone like to celebrate June as "Modesty Month"? In which all we say about our sex lives is that we are or are not married, and we all celebrate the achievements and take an interest in the interests of people other than ourselves?
