‘The Werewolf Of… Hull?’ (2016)

leeduigon(patty)May 14, 2024

‘The Werewolf of London’… starring Henry Hull. Hmmm….

You don’t expect to find werewolves in Yorkshire. You don’t expect to find even one. But several thousand people out there, over the past few years, have claimed to have seen a werewolf.

The Werewolf of… Hull?

They’ve dubbed the werewolf “Old Stinker.” They say he sneaks into the city through the storm drains. Have you ever tried to do that? I have. It’s not habit-forming.

If werewolves aren’t real, why do people say they’ve seen one?

You could hold a whole conference, trying to answer that question.

Parakeets and Mirrors

I’ve always loved parakeets, although I’ve never had one. But most of them, when they talk, sound like a radio program in a foreign language.

Bobby Bird, who lived across the street from my family, used to go bonkers over small hand mirrors. He could keep it up for hours, berating his reflection.

How Democrats Win Elections

He’s got a lot to laugh about, doesn’t he?

Here’s a study that clears up a mystery that’s bugged me for a long time.

According to a study by Just Facts, some 25 percent of non-citizens are illegally registered to vote–“potentially high enough,” say the researchers, “to overturn the will of the American people in major elections” (https://www.justfacts.com/news_non-citizen_voter_registration).

I knew it had to be something like that. Didn’t you?

Wow: 81 percent of them voted for Obama.

Yes, there had to be a reason why Democrats are shouting “Come on in!” to millions of border-jumpers. They’ll register as many non-citizens as they can, confident they’ll vote overwhelmingly for Democrats.

They really don’t care if they wreck our republic, do they?

We’ll still be a name on a map; but we won’t be America anymore.

Golden Globe winner Steve Buscemi before he was attacked.

With the DA having launched everything he’s got at President Donald Trump, trying to keep him from being elected again, New York City is turning into a hell-hole.

The latest incident: Actor Steve Buscemi (Reservoir Dogs, Boardwalk Empire), minding his own business as he walked along the sidewalk, was punched in the head by a passing stranger and wound up in the hospital (https://www.bbc.com/news/world-us-canada-69002525).

There’s more and more of this, these days–random attacks by people you don’t know.

Why does it not seem to bother Democrats that the cities that they govern are going down the tube? Why are attackers released without bail 20 minutes after they’re arrested? New York, Detroit, St. Louis, San Francisco, Chicago, etc., etc.–do they want their cities to be crime capitals?

New York officials say their city’s crime rate is down. Honk three times if you believe that for a minute.

Or ask Steve Buscemi.

Where Was I?

So where have I been all day? Physical therapy, an hour and change. Grocery shopping, an hour and a half. And then I just had to sit down and smoke a cigar, because I was already dog-tired.

As I sat, a blackbird came walking up the sidewalk toward me. It was a stiff walk–the kind of walk you see from someone to whom you owe money and have been rather careless about repaying. Was he going to peck at my shoelaces? Or maybe fly onto my lap and give me a piece of his mind?

When he was about five feet away, he suddenly took off and flew out of the picture.

Still tired, but a lot calmer, let’s see if I can get this blog in order.

‘We Don’t Have to Take This Anymore!’ (2016)

In 2016 the town of Hiram, Georgia, erected crosses to commemorate Hiram residents who’d died in America’s wars. Then the inevitable happened.

An unidentified atheist complained.

The town officials backed down and removed the crosses.

And then something unusual happened.

We Don’t Have to Take This Anymore!

Tired of micro-minorities running your country into the ground? We all are! And we don’t have to let them do it!

Memorial Day is coming up. The wokies will try to take it over.

Let’s not let them do it.

Kittens, Listen to Your Mother

leeduigon(patty)May 12, 2024

In honor of Mother’s Day–I wish my mother could see this–we show a mother cat instructing her two kittens. We don’t know what she’s saying, but I guess they do.

Many years ago, on a dark and stormy night, we admitted a stray cat into our home. She immediately had two kittens. Instant family for us!
