(Bad news at the physical therapy shop this morning: if I’m not measurably better in four weeks, it’s sayonara, out the door, nice knowin’ ya… Sorry, not ethical for us to treat losing cases… And so forth.)
Well, I can use a hymn, about now. This is the first one I thought of: In the Name of Jesus. Bluegrass version.
These look like very clean cats; and they have access to a washing machine. How carefully do you check the machine before you start your laundry? I mean, I heard about a guy who found an armadillo in his washing machine…

Supposedly, opinion polls tell us where the country’s at, politically–what’s in, what’s out, who’s up, who’s down, etc., etc. Supposedly the research that goes into them is Scientific. So we can believe it–right?
So… Here are a passel of “Trump is winning!” polls; but on the same page, we also find a Fox poll claiming that “Now it’s Biden who’s winning!” Which of these totally contradictory polls are we expected to believe?
Yeahbut, yeahbut! Fox has Biden winning! Apparently American voters are in love with Bidenomics, wiped-out borders with hordes of illegal aliens swarming in, teachers’ unions urging children to at least try switching genders, “Try it, you’ll like it!”–the whole Democrat DeLuxe Fun-Pak, we really dig it! (How many looniversity faculty lounges did they have to visit to get that result?) It seems this is the stuff that floats our boat.
What we have is a plethora of polls, no two of which are alike, and that’s supposed to help us make up our minds when it’s time to vote. (Remember Election Day? Whatever happened to Election Day?) Which poll are you going to believe?
They can’t all be right, because they contradict each other.
But I do find myself thinking that they can all be wrong.
From our “Nothing Works” Dept.–
Yesterday it was dreadfully hot by suppertime and we wanted something cool to eat–we wanted sub sandwiches. So we ordered a couple from the Italian restaurant a few blocks away. And they delivered it to our door.
Here’s the order:
1 roast beef sub, no vinegar, no cheese, no tomatoes, lettuce and onions only.
1 turkey sub
My roast beef sub came with no lettuce and the whole innards drowned in… ketchup! I used to have a job making subs, must have made at least a thousand of ’em. And not one of those had ketchup on it!
Patty’s turkey sub came slathered in mayonnaise, which of course she never asked for.
It took an irate phone call to get the supper we asked for and paid for.
That’s twice in just a few days that this restaurant screwed up an order. We’ve been customers there for at least 30 years. The old owner died last year, and the new regime shows no interest in keeping the restaurant’s customer base.
What gives? Do they just not pay attention anymore, when the customer is ordering a meal? Or is it part of a general national malaise, affecting everyone from the White House on down–nobody gets it right. Nobody cares. Nobody tries.
It’s one of those things that happens to a society when evil people get control of its politics. Mangle the politics, and you can trash everything else with it.
A few years ago this character, who’d held a post in the administration of President Batteries Not Included, ran for elective office in California.
Part of his platform was taxpayer-funded abortions for… You guessed it! For men.
Need it be mentioned that this dindle is a Democrat? I wonder where in the government he’s hiding out now. What further mischief is he planning?
He’s putting the cart before the horse. The great god Science still hasn’t found a way to make “trans women”–aka “men”–pregnant.
Even harder to find, perhaps impossible: a reason to do that in the first place.
They play this on the bells of St. Francis’ Church, right across the street from me.
Requested by Erlene, sung by Anne Murray: Whispering Hope.
P.S.–Shortly after I posted this, the church bells played it.
If at first you don’t succeed…
Look how hard these tumbly puppies have to work, to get the adult dog to play with them. Well, heck–if puppies can’t break down your resistance, it’s time your soul got a tune-up.
No, I am not going to post any pictures of this. It wasn’t the dinosaurs’ fault they went extinct–but it will be ours, if we do.
Lots of loopy nooze out there, these days. For instance:
Has Instagram been feeding “overtly sexual adult videos” to children as young as 13? Yes, it has–according to a study by The Wall Street Journal and Northeastern University (https://ca.finance.yahoo.com/news/instagram-is-reportedly-recommending-sexual-reels-to-teens-as-young-as-13-121626058.html).
Why does anybody do this? Does it rake in profits? Does somebody at Instagram honestly believe that children are better for watching videos of women pantomiming various sex acts?
What the devil are we doing to our civilization?
I can’t think of any way for this to turn out well. Can you?
[Not a satire! 100% pure idiocy, and government gone round the bend]
I confess I found it very hard to make sense of this phrase in a headline: “Luxury Hi-Rise Homeless Shelter.” What in the world is a luxury hi-rise homeless shelter?
It’s another utopian scheme for California taxpayers to pay for.
Taxpayers Build Luxury High-Rise Homeless Shelter in Los Angeles with $600,000 Units
The cost to the taxpayer is some $600,000 per unit. The building itself–Weingart Center Tower–cost $168 million… with two more such buildings on the way.
Residents–I guess that’s what we’ll call ’em–will have all sorts of amenities provided: movie nights, library, personal TV, gym. You name it, you’ve got it!
Suddenly “homeless” means enjoying a higher standard of living than the poor devils who have to pay for it.
I wonder what they’ve got lined up for “migrants.”
