I love this hymn, and it’s been too long since I last posted it: traditional Scottish hymn, sung by Godfrey Birtill–Behold the Mountain of the Lord. It stirs my soul. I hope it stirs yours.

Dogs as Excavators
What do dogs expect to find when they dig holes in the beach? Yeah, I know–it’s like asking “What song did the sirens sing?” Well, whatever it is, they haven’t found it yet.

The Selfie From Hell
Can you answer this? True or False: You don’t roll down the window for a selfie when the bear comes up to your car. Sorry, no hints.
It used to be general knowledge: “Don’t mess with a bear who has cubs.” Everybody knew that.
Fast forward to “What’s wrong with this picture?”
A woman from Scotland and two of her friends, on a vacation to Rumania, were driving through a wooded tract when they saw “a group of bears.” So they pulled over because the driver wanted to get a selfie with the bear (https://www.yourtango.com/self/woman-mauled-bear-taking-selfie). This is not to be confused with the person who fell backward into the boiling geyser, trying to get a selfie, or the one who took one too many steps off a mountain.
The tourists told the press they think the bear tried to climb into the car because “he” (with cubs? no way!) overheard them talking about food and it made him hungry. Did the bear understand Scottish English? Maybe he took a correspondence course. You’d think bears in Rumania would speak Rumanian.
But back to the selfie. “I thought he (there we go again) wanted to be friends,” she said as she rolled down the window. The bear got hold of her arm and mauled it. She’s lucky she wasn’t killed. They were all lucky they were still in the car when it happened.
How can this be? Three grown women, and not one of them had ever heard you don’t bother a bear with cubs? Public education at work! Do they think Goldilocks was a real person? I mean, this is ignorance on a monumental scale.
‘Ocean of Time’ (Sneak Preview)
Kirk DouPonce has done it again! Can this guy whip up a book cover, or what?
I hope Ocean of Time will come out in time for Christmas this year. Meanwhile, take a good long look at that cover. Does that say “Pick me up and read me”? Does that say “Don’t you wish you knew what that’s about”?
After Ocean of Time, we’ll be going back two thousand years to another era of Obann’s history. I don’t intend it as a one-way trip… but we shall see.
‘There’s Only Stupid Stuff Left to Protest’ (2016)

They don’t know what they’re protesting anymore. It’s sort of an end in itself.
A few years ago, in Spain, we were treated to the spectacle of idiot vegans dousing their nude bodies with “blood” to protest the government’s failure to make people stop eating meat (https://leeduigon.com/2016/05/23/theres-only-stupid-stuff-left-to-protest/).
Now we’ve got Far Left morons all over the world “protesting” against Israel and for the terrorist group, Hamas. Queers for Palestine. Goofy for Gaza. The fact that Hamas on Oct. 7 launched an all-out orgy of murder and chaos somehow seems to have slid past them unnoticed.
They have gone from protesting for stupid stuff to being too damned stupid to know what they’re protesting, or why. Like they’ve been in love with Palestine all their lives. Tell me another one.
You could get these college ninnies to protest snark-hunting on Mars if you got some doofus with a ponytail to start the ball rolling.
By Request, ‘The Peace of Jerusalem’
Requested by Erlene: The Peace of Jerusalem, sung by Kirk Dearman.
Yes, pray for the peace of Jerusalem. These days it’s hard to come by.
Best-Ever Cat & Dog Video
I know, I know–I’ve posted this before. Today this wacky video is a birthday present from me to me. It’s one of my all-time favorites.
What I wouldn’t give to know what that dog was thinking! I think the cat thinks the dog is crazy.
DeSantis Bans Fake Meat
“I’d like some more, please!”
Amazon.com zillionaire Jeff Bezos recently moved to Florida and invested $60 million in plans to create and sell “meat” created in the laboratory–and on May 1, Gov. Ron DeSantis banned it (https://nypost.com/2024/05/06/business/jeff-bezos-moved-to-fl-and-invested-60m-into-lab-grown-meat-then-ron-desantis-banned-it/).
“Cultivated meats” is the operative euphemism. It’s all to Save The Planet From Climbit Change, of course. Feed us on lab-grown funny foods and… insects! Makes your mouth water, eh? Yeahbut, yeahbut! We’ll be “eliminating the need to farm animals”!
Frankenfood… Where’s Boris Karloff? He ought to be in on this.
I will not eat bugs. I will not eat “meat” grown in a freakin’ petri dish. I am a human being, and I intend to live like one.
And while they’re at it, they can take their electric cars and stuff those, too.
GOP Mulls Defunding Universities
Your tuition dollars at work!
So… is enough enough already?
Republicans in Congress, led by Rep. Jim Banks (R-IN) are talking up a plan to defund colleges and universities for allowing and encouraging antisemitic speech and rioting, the whole ball of wax (https://www.cnbc.com/2023/12/18/ivy-league-crackdown-house-republicans-plan-to-defund-top-universities.html).
It’s about time! In 2021 Harvard received $625 million in federal funds–in other words, taxpayer money. And what are we getting for this? It only hurts when I laugh.
Banks has a three-stage plan: defunding assorted elite colleges would be the climax. The public is getting a bit tired of anti-Israel “encampments” rallied by non-students and Far Left professors. Harvard, Penn State, and MIT are already under investigation: that’s Stage One. Stage Two is more subpoenas.
Of course, this has little chance of going forward with Democrats in charge of the Senate and an almost 50-50 House. But that could change, big-time, if President Donald Trump is returned to the White House by the voters.
We are getting fed up, though: that’s a fact.
