16. Now, this Chas 3 thing

My hope was sacking the govt, calling a GE. Someone thought it was abdicating due to cancer. Another though it was Ginge, Whinge and family, inc. Airmiles. 🍿🍿🍿.

15. Sorority mania going viral across the US

… in the wake of Sydney fever:

This is now getting way out of hand:

Dang these sorority dance offs just keep getting better and better. Some look like professional dancers.

14. Coming up to 811, here’s 911

[RG911Team] There’s a reason why this 9/11 clip is never shown on TV.

The NBC reporter says some things that blow a hole through the middle of the official story.

11. West to Alaska

Now, the obvious thing is to get the ingredients in before Friday’s summit in Alaska … you’ll need to drink a toast of course on the feast of Mary:

Krovavaya Meri or Bloody Mary

Ingredients: Seven in all: vodka, tomato juice, Worcestershire sauce, black pepper, celery salt, Tabasco and lemon juice. You’ll also need to prepare nibbles ahead of time.

Method: Combine all bar the vodka, pour the mix into the glasses … now comes the important part. You need a hunting knife or other large bladed knife, point at the top of the mix, blade at an angle. Very careful drip the vodka in along the blade so that it sits on top of the mix, so that it does not sink in and become part of the mix. After the toast, sink the vodka, feel the burn, followed by the mellow mix. Nibble.

За здоровье, friends!

 

When pushed for time, which jazz group would you revert to for three quick tracks? For me, either Tuba Skinny or some manifestation of the Ramblers … especially approaching the Russian summit in Alaska.

 

Time is the issue now … not enough left this afternoon for a film but I did find a Poirot plus an original Maigret. There are politics but best get this episode up, then find some jazz, then do a final polit-post, including Steve’s Alaskan summit sshot.

 

What all who visit here, plus I, am looking for is some sort of authentic information on the topics we look at. Rather than boasting that we have it yet, better to say that if we find something still up which was factually wrong, as distinct from interpretation and opinion … it doesn’t stay up. That can take years.

A second point is that clearly and openly biased people are often of more use to readers … look at what he or she puts, then look at what the detractor puts. Then evaluate against other things you know. Laura Loomer is one of those … a known-known. This Chinese guy below … might be originally Hong Kong, might be mainland, might be nationalist … clearly anti-CCP … fine, we know where we stand. Better to post than not to post. For the CCP eulogy, go to South China Press or similar.

(0911) Putting together the collected things for Sunday, none are classical or baroque music … that would involve going searching … fine, but later. On the other hand, there’s much in the way of politics, plus some interesting feature youtubes, one coming up after this. (0929)

 

10. If I’ve no immediate music to run

… then maybe this might suffice for now:

9. It cannot inexorably continue

… a reckoning of some kind or other must come.

Naturally we have to look at it … Roob already has.

My deeply thought through treatise on the summit is … 🍿🍿🍿.

1. DAD at 1128

Sorry, DAD, crashed and awoke after 0600, had things which had to be sorted right then in RL.

a) Corruption: France and the EU complicite with Algeria. According to ‘Libération’, Chems-Eddine Hafiz, rector of the Grand Mosque of Paris, adopts a double discourse: moderate and republican in France, but aligned with the official positions of Algiers when he speaks in Algeria.

b) Critical minerals needed to build ‘green energy’ technology such as solar panels, nuclear power stations, electric cars and wind turbines could run out within 10 years, researchers have warned. The Times has the story.

c) This is the second of two articles on the dawning of an uncomfortable new strategic reality for the West, which is that the primary threat to its security and well-being today is not external but internal—specifically, civil war.

d) A foreign Royal Family own more of London than King Charles as worrying trend laid bare…

e) Opinion from ‘Kent-on-line’: Call for Kent independence by Spectator’s Toby Young may be tongue in cheek – but that it’s being floated at all is telling.
