Hope everyone made it through the storms ok.
It's finally made it to the north east, thankfully it will just skim my state but RI and the Cape will have it ruff.
Still diggin out from the last one.

Looking at some of the commie Democrats currently in office at many levels it seems we are close.

A few weeks ago I finished reading "Mao: The Unknown Story" by Jung Chang and though an American Mao hasn't shown up in the public eye, the useful idiot mob willing to mass murder on his/her behalf is forming before our eyes. This true story makes Orwell's imagination look like a sweet dream. I highly recommend reading it.

Complete power at any cost. That's where they're at. There are times when I realize that we're not very far from putting people on cattle cars and shipping them off...

Huge article with a lot of technical information, but worth reading as much as you can - I ran out of time to read it all in depth and had to skip along to the end. The political gist of this as I understand it is our very own Big Brother wanted a back door into our communications infrastructure so it could spy on us, but in so doing it provided a tunnel for foreign Big Brothers, mainly the Chi-Comms, to spy on our Big Brother and on us at the same time. Mad magazine's Spy vs Spy at high speed.

Quite so, FFA. The Dems are afraid of their crimes finally being adjudicated. A reason why they fought so hard to keep Trump out of office the second time was their fear of this issue, and since he won they are doing all they can to disrupt and deflect from their crimes. And the Chi Coms and the globalists are taking full advantage.

Excellent overview article. Each succeeding paragraph is an "If-you-thought-that-was-interesting-take-a-look-at-this!" added topic. The author, Kunstler, lays out the multi-pronged attack on Western Civilization and what's left of Free America. Many topics we've discussed among ourselves in the Gulch. It's a smorgasbord of tidbits the reader can research more deeply if desired.

I enjoyed the writing style used to cram a lot into a short article. I even picked up a couple of unfamiliar words (immiseration, adumbrate) where immiseration isn't even in my spell checker, but it is a real word being underlined in red.

You have it correct - a peek into insanity. How can thinking people post this kind of nonsense?

Wonderful, and thanks!

From the article:
"And so, American women — and not a few mentally feminized men — have become the foot-soldiers of the Democratic Party in its increasingly desperate campaign to keep its criminal rackets going — or, at least, not end up in prison over them — while the party has become the collective “useful idiot” of the Globalist / Marxist forces seeking to destroy Western Civ and hand North America over to China."

Right! My father and I collected stamps, and Dad was a bit of a "language nut", and pointed out to me that the word Magyar in "Magyar Kir Posta" on the stamps was pronounced Mud-year. It meant Hungarian Royal Post Office.

Remember him from the "Blackadder" Series. He was great in all 3 series! Comedy in the trenches of WW1 .... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RcIV5...

Thanks for the posts OGC!!! My Faves - You can't have Greenland - yet.... disparaging Elmer Fudd by comparing him to T Tim.... and I did rush over to the Oreo website, and am now waiting ....for all my cookies!!!

Thanks, again, for a wonderful selection for our amusement! Nicely done, OUC! Always welcome Star Trek memories and Greenland/Venezuela meme cracked me up!

Thumb up! (I don't know how to get the thumb up emoji on this thing so I have to spell it out, LOL)

If your TV can connect to the internet (check your settings) then it should have a base operating system like Amazon Fire or Roku (or Chrome?) and should be able to get YouTube. I connect an external AppleTV box to mine using a HDMI port to get YouTube - the real old Apple boxes can't connect to YouTube anymore. The Apple connects to the WiFi on it's own so as long as you have a TV (even a dumb one) with an HDMI port you're good to go. I have all my DVD movies and shows transferred to a disk on my Apple computer which the AppleTV box can access so I can watch them on any of my TVs without having to dig out the DVD. Getting YouTube, Prime, and other stuff on the Apple box is just a bonus to me.

Got it, LOL!

In my much younger days I collected stamps and I recall Magyar Postes was Hungarian so I had a hint.

Agreed, Thanks again for your contributions.

I have the Oreos and the Greenland/Venezuela ones tied for my best.

Atkinson has a mole or some other kind of a dark splotch on his left cheek.
Tonight I learned he is still making movies but it appears most are staying in Great Brittan.

Thanks, but I wasn't thinking of John, I was thinking of the other guy in the silly walk video. I just watched it and realized it wasn't him.

Have to remember Mr Bean.

Ten or so years ago I tried out a Methodist Sunday service but the hearing aids I was wearing did not overcome my tinnitus very well.
Too many loud noises in my past. 24/7 I hear what sounds like a constant droning of electronic crickets. I've got it lucky compared to others with the same affliction. I can pretend I'm camping in a forest when I feel like taking an old dino's afternoon nap.

You be wrong. That would be John Cleese of Monty Python. I'm a long time Python fan and never seen Cleese wear a mustache.

But then I never seen Rowan Atkinson's Mr. Bean character wear a mustache either.
His name just now finally floated out of me dino memory banks.

Dino, I would recommend the Episcopal church to you, but because it had gotten so Liberal, I won’t. The only reason that I still attend is that I have been an Episcopalian for so long that it’s hard to change. Besides that, my priest is a Conservative Republican. I don’t think that the bishop likes him much, but we in his flock do.
Great bunch of funnies today, OUC!

Not only does Tampon Tim resemble Elmer Fudd, but he looks like Jessica after Greg absolutely blew her away on The Five yesterday.

I saw that british officer and thought: Minister of silly walks.
Probably wrong but that's what my brain brought up.
