Friday [14 till close of play]

(1636) Evening all.

 

16. Unconscionable the way it’s still being pushed


15. Nancy gives herself away a bit

Posobiec clearly has it in for Mace but on the other hand, as he points out … the internet remembers things and they’re easily retrieved from archives. If she were sensible, she’d say right, that was so back then, is no one allowed to learn along the way?

But she didn’t do that … she doubled down and started counterattacking. Not a good look. She might be right on the current issues or not … point is … not a good look.


14. Steve has a few things up

… an item at 913:2 on dishonest pollies, another at 913:3 with war room:

a. Mike Davis: Fani Willis’ Case Of Arrogance, Corruption And Greed. Nathan Wade Billed Time With Biden Whitehouse Council 16 Hours At $250/hr.

b. Brian Glenn: The Base Couldn’t Care Less If This Tyrannical Government Stays Funded.

c. Natalie Winters: “We Are Fully In Support Of Shutting Down This Illegitimate Weaponized Regime”.

d. Mike Benz: Reuters Received Tens Of Millions Of Dollars From The Government To Lie.

Plus: “Elon spreads the word.”

Try these

 

  1. Who rides in a $190m Aurus Senat?
  2. What stopped in 1784 in Edinburgh’s Grassmarket?
  3. The out of control eyepatcher in US politics?
  4. What’s track tamping?
  5. Which party is offering £10 memberships to U25s?
  6. Nearly all domestic ducks are derived from which ancestors?

Friday [5]

(0740) Still dark so late in the morn. Lighter now, bleah out there. (0811)

 

The Christmas programme from Unherdables HQ

These are the carols in the queue right now … just have to slot them into some order:


Thinking out loud here … Bleak Midwinter tomorrow, natch, there are two children’s carols, one British, one North American …. hmmmm, where?

We three kings is post Chrissy Day, Wenceslas (not pictured) is the 26th, the day itself has the Bulgarian children, 24th is Stille Nacht, 23rd is O Holy Night.

All right … let’s go by theme … While Shepherds Watched (Kings Bollege, Bambridge) is on or before the day … Sunday 22nd?

O Little Town or Dame Kiri today? Dame Kiri more serious after yesterday’s children but O Little Town somehow seems better pre-Christmas.

Dame Kiri on the 27th? IYE’s French music 28th?

The Baroque? Hmmmmm. 29th, as Sunday music? Thinking I might finish the Christmas season on the 29th, start the Slavic New Year 30, 31, 1, 2.
