4. Andy flashback two years
”Move along there, you’re having far too much fun. Tuba Skinny confronted by police in New Orleans.”
You remember it at the time? Just coming out of the plandemic horrors, performing seals, standing on spots in supermarkets, 6 feet apart, never 5’10” … care home deaths etc. Then this, where bands had at least for a decade performed on Royal Street … wtaf? New Orleans cultural icons … grrrrr.
3. Steve drops at 855 … selections
MftWC 4: Dirty Mitch McConnell Attacks Trump and Rick Scott 2 Weeks Out from Election – Refused to Fund Scott, Kari Lake and Ted Cruz but Blew Millions on RINO Larry Hogan’s Losing Campaign
MftWC 3: Mayhem at Washington Post After Bezos Kills Harris Endorsement – Staff Threatening to Quit and Denounce Company

MftWC 1: New version of “hate speech bill” is rushed through Irish parliament; it excludes “speech” but includes a new crime of “aggravated by hatred”
2. Billy loves Kari! Billy loves Kari! Nyaa nyaa nyaa!
Did you catch his throwaway comment, Clinton, on Kari Lake being a looker, a good sort? She remarked in one of her campaign speeches that she was probably a bit old for Billy … didn’t he prefer interns?

Had a quick look through the interview … thing which came through to me was that it helps if the leader or the person you want achieving something has this element in the head of “couldn’t care less nutter”.
You remember the Sherlock Holmes eccentricity and someone said thank goodness he fights for good (as we might define it in eternal terms) … it does need that sort of person … today they might call it sigma … he’s flawed, too human in a way … that’s true.
So while there’s a screw loose, as Trump describes Bolton … it’s a case of what fruits result from that tree … look at Bolton … wars … Mattis, Kelly M.I.C. … there’s something necessary in having someone who’s eccentric and unpredictable … G Gordon Liddy was that but he was also willing to do highly dangerous things for the “gung ho”.
The ones you want are that ledger balance being for “good” … also usually hard workers, two speeds, stop and go … quite the untrusting loner … such that the observer (you, me), in order to decide on him, must look at the track record overall, how positions developed and why … esp. what his bottom lines are, his red lines? That’s where the confidence comes from in the observer … or not.
Many times I’ve written that in the final analysis, we’re only our track record and our positions on this policy or that. The Jewish-Arab thing is a perfect case .. what if your chief loyalty, after God, is your own country? So you judge behaviour according to eternal verities first, then to what’s best for your nation, your area, your family, friends, ultimately you … but not if it destroys other “good” people … everything’s a balance of positions developed over decades.
Tuba Skinny, that popped up in my timeline late last night. It caught my eye as I know you like them. What I didn’t notice that it was two years old. Anyway, it serves as a reminder of what we all went through in those ‘trance’ years.

JH: It does indeed.
Tuba Skinny. They are great at improvising. I hope they have a new foot-tapper with the lined, “take yo attitude yo gun n yo fat arse and Fark off”
JH: Their latest will be up here this afternoon, by the way, CL-F.
