Why bother?
Craig Murray continues to dissect the usual Deepstate false flag operations, as he did so masterfully with Skripal. I used to think that FBI-sponsored “terrorism” was meant to develop public support for more war against the countries we were going to attack anyway. Government-sponsored “riots” developed public support for more internal persecution of religious or…

Not a silly question!
Reddit has a Shitty Ask History section for intentionally stupid questions. Some are funny, some aren’t. This one is a damn good serious question! I’ve been reading Suttree by Cormac McCarthy, and it seems like back in the ’50s to ’70s there was a brothel district in every city. This impression doesn’t just come from…

Finally found its niche
In the Car Spotter section of the latest Collectible Auto mag. The poor old Pacer has finally found its true mission in life, 50 years too late. An absurd roadside advertisement. It looks drivable but I doubt that it drives. In 1975 it was an unjustifiable and atypical self-defeat for AMC. They already owned Willys.…

Vinyl siding again
Fire investigators, overloaded by Aaron Farinacci’s holocaust, finally have time to check on more ordinary fires. The apartment fire in July was caused by a tossed cigarette near the wall. A similar apt fire in mid Sept had the same cause. The article omits the other CONSTANT in these two. Both buildings had VINYL SIDING,…

Not just politicians
Evan Barker’s detailed description of ‘progressive’ political animals reminded me that I had seen the same critters when campaigning for Gene McCarthy in 1968. And they were already familiar in ’68 after reading a 1943 book by Max Shulman. I remembered the political types pretty well but forgot the rest, including the title. It was…

Reverse causation
Common opinion seen online: Is it just me, or has mainstream music not only gotten so bad, but it’s also kinda matching up with how dumbed down everything feels now? Like it’s conforming to people who don’t want any depth anymore. It’s a highly understandable conclusion but I think the causation is backwards. First, most…

Carrots as teachers
Carrots trigger productive thoughts. Bugs Bunny was right. Earlier I noticed that carrots in a bowl in the fridge were frosty though the ambient temp in the fridge was 38. The same thing happens to surfaces like roofs when the outside ambient is around 40. This forced me to recognize that ambient, like all statistics,…

FADFO
The stories on today’s Nieman website show an industry working HARD in every possible way to drive away its customers and empower its enemies. The N. Y. T. i. m. e. s. lost a libel suit because it followed the perpetual Yankee tradition of seeing all Southerners as Klansmen. They couldn’t imagine that a Southerner…

Wha’ if?
This week’s weather news is full of the Nor’easter in the Northeast. What if other local weather specialties followed the same fake poetic spelling? Twisters are Kan’ans. Hailstorms are O’ies. Hurricanes are Flori’ans. Earthquakes are Cali’ans. Lake effect snows are Bu’alos. Graupel storms are Spo’anites. Fog is Fri’an.

HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA
Shiny Hunters hacks FBI, exposes list of employee data. Shiny Hunters cost me $3600 through no fault of my own. FBI has been letting the hackers run free, obeying the Ellison law “Let The Fires Burn.” Now the torch has burned the witch-burners. Eat it, vicious vile Lady Edgar. You’ve been hacking the world for…

Excel dreams the impossible dream
Microsoft proudly announces that Excel can now accept a group of values or things in one cell. For instance you might want to show an item and its price, or a name and address. Congrats! You’ve accomplished the dream of every paper and ink bookkeeper! Those 1812 bookkeepers for the Lewis and Clark crew only…

Bidets
Spending too much passive online time this week, recovering from some tiring stuff. Reddit and Quora are packed with Euro Bidet Snobs who look WAY down on gun-totin 300-pound Murcan Neanderthals who aint learned nothin bout indoor plumbin. Murcans still use them ancient primitive “toilet” thangs and still wipe with primitive Sears catalogs. I finally…

First halfway effective law
While everyone is busy disputing the wrong questions about apocalypse, one Congressman hits the correct end of the problem. I don’t know if it will get through Congress, but it certainly looks like a partial solution. Darrell Issa has introduced the American Copyright Protection Act, narrowly aimed at foreign copyright pirates. It misses the threat…

Yoots to roots
Author Daniel Williams notes that several mainline pastors are running for Congress this year with a good chance of success. This hasn’t happened in many decades. From 1776 to 1946, nearly all politicians were mainline. Very few Catholics or Baptists or Jews. After WW2 the other religions moved into politics, crowding out the mainliners. Mainline…
