VE Day [10 till close of play]

(1616) Almost evening, all. (2006) I’m off to zonkland, mateys and mate-ettes.

 

17. DAD at 1043 on Léon Quatorze

Robert Francis Prevost, nommé Léon XIV, is the new Pope as Leo XIV.

JH: As bad as the last, maybe worse … also see IYE in comments:


IYE’s link:

”Individuals in the Chiclayo diocese would later accuse Prevost of failing in 2022 to open an investigation into their accusations of abuse against two priests. The diocese vigorously denied the claim when the cases made international headlines in 2024.”


16. Roobeedoo (url left column, brolls)

Brian Cates on the Granny Harmer deal: “The globalist cult would have never allowed this deal to go forward if they still had control of the UK. This is how you know the strings have been cut.”

10. Steve on carriers

As far as I know there are two US Carrier Strike Groups in the Middle East, one in the Red Sea (USS Harry S. Truman) the other in the Eastern Mediterranean (USS Carl Vinson). The latter has the F-35C. With regard to F/A-18 losses we should cut them some slack as they are in a zone of conflict and with an upward tempo things do go wrong. A huge ship like a carrier, executing hard-a-port to avoid an incoming missile? Well if it’s loose it’ll roll. The second where there was a problem with the arresting hook could be a simple malfunction due to extended use – it was a night landing but I don’t know it that had any bearing. The Yanks had been bombing the shit out of the Houthis for six straight days and nights. Here’s some vid:

  1. The US Navy has been defeated and Trump has the wits to call it a day rather than convert it into another sodding “forever war”. Well done him.

    • If you think the US Navy has been defeated then why does it continue to fly sorties against targets in the Middle East? Also, a third US Carrier Strike Group is moving into the Mediterranean.

  2. Summer troubles

    I can offer no real, tangible aid. But am compelled to state my mind and try to encourage you to fight the good fight.
    never tire of doing right.

  3. New American Pope

    “Congratulations to Cardinal Robert Francis Prevost, who was just named Pope. It is such an honor to realize that he is the first American Pope. What excitement, and what a Great Honor for our Country. I look forward to meeting Pope Leo XIV. It will be a very meaningful moment!”

    Why isn’t he Pope Robert? Never did understand why they chose another name. Hey ho…I could look it up but I don’t care enuff.

  4. Redacted….
    James, is always walking near the edge intended or not. When one gets up against the edge of anything, possessing a keen and clear insight, a discerning spirit is a blessing. An alertness is needed as well as consistency…but not so stuck in the same ole that things cannot be learned or discovered. Searching for Truth is the focus.

    I appreciate the contributions and comments here by terrific people with sharp and thoughtful minds and dear souls. Much food for thought is presented daily by the unofficial (but known) team.

    James has such an ability to have a thread going, sharing much thematic info and insight. There is also much coveted stand-alone tid bits. Along with that we are provided by him and several, several others, of whom we are aware, great entertainment via music and film, radio plays, etc. We are provided info regarding history, geography and more using links and certainly using historical photos and videos. Among those things we have how-to videos and quizzes although much is beyond my ability level….especially those horrid matchstick puzzles that used to be featured on occasion! Gardening and crafting ideas and results are provided as well which inspires and calms the spirit.

    In a slightly lighter time we were provided wonderful plans about James’ boat building project. He discussed his plans and redesigns, improvements for years. People from other lands who sailed the seas and/or built boats were introduced to us.

    Das boot may have not have been completed but it was a grand time keeping up with it all.

    I recall some kill-joy insisting James was too old. Heaven’s to Betsy! It kept him young and his mind click clicking! Times change. The world changed drastically and health and age did take him out of that particular game as the kill-joy insisted. So what he didn’t get to finish! The planning stage along with the anticipation of the boat and travels is half the fun! So he had half the fun. And quite a bit of the project got done. We were able to be a part of it all if we wanted which kept us clicking along too.

    There are standards here but not to the point of too much prudishness whereby we would miss important info, thoughts, and humour.

    Grabdad’s passing is sad. Prayers for his wife, daughter, grandchildren and friends. It will happen to each of us. That is a sure thing. May God rest his soul. He be will be missed.

    Prayers for all who visit and contribute to and read this blog.
    And 🙏s even for those who don’t care one iota for prayer…DMe. 😽

    Oh…and ju…ummm…Redacted it is fun having a fresh face and input by you!

    • Miss Toodles…

      I am humbled and blessed by you and your reply.
      Almost speechless ( which would shock my wife!)

      those horrid matchstick puzzles that used to be featured on occasion!
      And about boats- I am late to the party. No doubt I would’ve enjoyed them as well.
      You also gave some meaningful insight into Mr JH’s background. Seems a most blessed, fortunate, intricate man.

      Grabdad’s passing is sad. I am unfamiliar with him. I hope he knew The Lord.

      Redacted it is fun having a fresh face and input by you!
      I appreciate your kindness and time maam.
      I tend to be overly serious, long winded, see in b&w, avoid patience & tact, and more ( or would that be less? 🤔). Underlying my many shortcomings, I wish to point out, remind that Judgment Day is fast approaching us all.

      May G-d bless, preserve, protect you and yours maam.

    • Checks are in the mail, Toods and Redacted. 😎

      🤭

      I won’t cash it.
      I’d far rather you use it as you see fit for your own purposes.

      Would that I could send a little your way.

      Again, you are appreciated Sir.
