Mueller Report is Finished.... How About a Laugh????

Have You Folks met Mayor Pete? You Should. Read These Two Articles....

An interview by the Guardian.

The latest poll has him in third place.


From the Guardian.

"He is the son of a Maltese immigrant, Christian, contemporary of Mark Zuckerberg at Harvard, Rhodes scholar at Oxford, city mayor before his 30th birthday, Afghanistan war veteran, piano player, polyglot, fan of James Joyce and, now, at the grand old age of 37, would-be first millennial president."

"Buttigieg speaks Arabic, Dari, French, Italian, Maltese, Norwegian and Spanish to greater or lesser extents but has a Midwestern understatement that seems to neutralise Trump-era sneering and anti-intellectualism."

"He goes up to the 14th floor office where John F Kennedy’s inaugural address hangs above his desk, a photo of Buttigieg with Michelle Obama sits on a sideboard, and Winston Churchill’s 12-volume history of the second world war shares the bookshelves with Making Gay History by Eric Marcus. There is also a fragment of blue stone from Buttigieg’s first trip to Iraq as a civilian adviser; he recites the inscription in convincing Arabic, then translates: “‘Not everyone who rides on a horse is a knight.’ I keep it here to remind myself, just because you have an office or a title doesn’t mean much unless you do something with it.”

Edit: He ain't got no bone spurs.

Do Yourselves (hmm, am I being a little too optimistic that anyone is reading this stuff?) a Favor, Read the Article and Watch the Video.

I've mentioned this fellow before.

Here's the article.

Thought I'd use this entry of Mike Huckabee as an example. Yes, folks, this is Sarah's dad.

#183: Mike Huckabee

Huckabee is a Baptist minister and former governor of the State of Arkansas. He was a candidate in the 2008 United States presidential election, representing the Christian Taliban. He is a young earth creationist, and therefore rejects certain controversial elements of modern science such as evolution, heliocentricism, gravity, and mathematics.

As a theocrat, Huckabee advocated changing the Constitution to incorporate Biblical values: “I have opponents in this race who do not want to change the Constitution. But I believe it’s a lot easier to change the Constitution than it would be to change the word of the living God. And that’s what we need to do is amend the Constitution so it’s in God’s standards rather than trying to change God’s standards so it lines up with some contemporary view of how we treat each other and how we treat the family.” He generally subordinates logic, evidence and governmental responsibilities to religion. As a presidential candidate he seems, interestingly, to have appealed mainly to the younger evangelical population.

Among his proposed policies are Covenant marriage and reinstating prayer in school (since its removal from school is, together with TV, one of the main reason for the current “moral decay”). He has also used the infamous bumblebee argument for the claim that science doesn’t understand everything. His argument against evolution is mainly Wilberforce’s (you are free to believe that you and your family came from apes, but I didn’t). He admits to not having been present at creation, however. And yes, his ignorance matters.

More here.
Diagnosis: The crackpots shall lead the ignorant, ‘tis said, and Huckabee is certainly a candidate for the position of kook supreme. He is extremely dangerous, and persistent assertions that he is unelectable don’t quite allay all of our worries.

Ahh, More New Age Bullshit? Or, Just New Age Folks Doing What New Age Folks Do?

What in the heck does New Age mean? Actually, I just glanced at this definition. 

I guess the way I view it, it's all the stuff that believers in astrology, psychics, energy healing, and so on latch on to. Obviously, my definition is biased. And, so be it. I guess I could also add, that it's the crazy crap that regardless of how absurd and ridiculous and worthless it is, well...the New Age folks open their checkbooks and get in line.

When I started this months ago, it was about yoga with goats...or, goat yoga! And, another link as it's in my state of Virginia.

The catalyst for my posting this was when I saw an article about cats and, yes, YOGA!!!!

For you New Age folks, the believers and for folks who just want to make money, Hey, how about yoga and pythons. Heck, there are plenty of them in Florida. Just come up with the craziest crap you can and the folks will lineup, with money in hand. Honest, they will.

As a bonus, and speaking of batshit crazy, have any of you folks heard of this woman, J. Z. Knight? Ahh, she sucked them all in, including Shirley MacLaine. Knight has a 12,000 sq. ft. home. As I always say, that crazy crap is often a money maker.

EDIT: I may have mentioned in passing that I've started at least 15 novels. Actually, could be as many as 25. Though I have at least a couple with 75,000 words, none are finished. And, well...most likely shouldn't be.

That said, I started on one and it was going to be Carl Hiaasenesque. Was about a group of friends that the protagonist got entangled with. Yes, they were all New Age whack jobs. Anyway, he was going to make a point and to that end, he was going to use his Bouvier pup to channel a long dead warrior God. How's that folks? Oh, well. I need some more coffee!!!!!! Or, maybe less....

There's Bat-Shit Craziness Everywhere.... Even, Yes, in New Zealand!!!!!

This is 2019...this surely doesn't speak well for us as humans. Aren't we supposed to be at the top of the chain????
Please read the article.

In the article it mentions the Iraqi government spending millions on bogus bomb detectors. Here's my comment about the ADE-651, yes, the so-called bomb detector.

From the State That Gave us Ted Cruz and Rick Perry..... Meet Judge Jack Robison....

"... he walked into the jury room after the jury's deliberations, said he had been praying about the case, and informed the jurors God told him the defendant was innocent."
