Tuesday [21 till close of play]

(1628) Evening all.

 

26. Just caught this now


25. At the UN

24. One of the many cons forced on us


23. Eccentric but still loved by many


22. To whom are our loyalties?

For me, numero uno is in the metaphysical realm, as we feel was manifested on earth. In short, the Triune God … and therefore … we are both for this Power but we’ve also been taught we must love our neighbours, our fellow humans as well, difficult though that is.

Which humans? Just our tribe? Is Viktor Orban of my tribe? Was my ex-gf? I can love people in other tribes as long as they’re neither culturally exclusive, nor wanting to kill and harm us … that there are sufficient areas where we can see eye to eye. Those wishing us harm, and are in attack mode, we stop them. Those not particularly interested in us but not particularly wishing us harm, e.g. Buddhist monks … well there they go.

Within our own tribe … and mine flies under the flags of these isles … my loyalty is to these people first. But within our own tribe, too many have gone bad and become enemy, e.g. antifa retards. They need stopping, while we welcome the Eva Vlaars and Toodleses from outside the isles, as the culture is so similar.

All of that is par for the course, shirley. We each have our sacred cow sources, also those anathema to us … you’ll see ones this site does not countenance on the Bookmarks page. Again, par for the course.

So let’s get to this unherdable group of sites … what’s the prime directive? To ferret, deep dive is it not? With neither fear nor favour. What if we don’t like the truth we find? We still need to table … somewhere in the complex. Why? Good question … should we not just shut up shop, waiting for Godot? Wot … with known victims out there, real ones we should be helping? Sorry … this site is not ascetic, is not cloistered away … we must do these things … some of us gaining strength from Above.

21. Steve and Hearts of Oak at 1159

Hearts of Oak: Jan Jekielek – Uniting America: Reflections on Charlie Kirk, TikTok Dangers, & CCP’s ‘Kill to Order’

Was getting to some Baroque for DAD when suddenly, this film came up and as I had no film, thought it best to lasso and play … looks like western … until it started … restaurant, a killing … away we go.

“Producer: Maurice Geraghty. Copyright 17 March 1944 by RKO-Radio Pictures, Inc. New York opening at: 17 March 1944. U.S. release: March 1944. Australian release: 20 July 1944. 5,910 feet. 64 minutes. 

SYNOPSIS: When a wealthy cattleman dies in a New York nightclub, the murdered man’s fiancée, accompanied by The Falcon, entrains for Texas.

NOTES: Number eight in the sixteen-picture “The Falcon” series. (The numbering in the book The Great Movie Series is incorrect. There is a teaser for The Falcon in Mexico at the end of this movie, although the heroine in the movie itself is actually enacted by Mona Maris, not Zedra Conde).

COMMENT: A novel entry in the series. True, the identity of the killer is pretty obvious. So obvious indeed that most audiences will discount that suspect as a possibility and look for someone else. So the suspense is well maintained nonetheless, and there are plenty of thrills on the way. Also the western setting allows for some new wrinkles on the urban mystery formula. An edge-of-the-seat stagecoach ride comes as a standout. And we like the way The Falcon handles himself on the box seat and in the saddle.

Romance is provided by an attractive trio, headed by Carole Gallagher (a new girl on the block, this is her only starring role. In fact she is credited in only two other movies: Hit Parade of 1947 and 1948’s The Denver Kid, in both of which she has only minor roles. A pity! She’s a lovely girl and fine actress). 

Edward Gargan (pronounced “Garrigan”) makes the most of some worthwhile material handed him by the scriptwriters and holds up the humor end with ease. We love his running gag with the educated Indian. 

Tom Conway, the perfect Falcon, maintains his usual suave composure, and receives excellent support from Cliff Clark (the detective), Donald Douglas (the lawyer), Minor Watson (the chief suspect), Barbara Hale (the suspect’s pretty daughter), and Joan Barclay (the murdered man’s ex-wife). 

The direction by William Clemens is highly competent (if unobtrusive), while Harry J. Wild contributes the creative, consistently skillful photography.”

Tuesday [11 to 15]

(0931) Nice out there mid-morn. (1017)

 

15. Toodles on the fairway

Finally, I did get out the door and to the links. You wouldn’t believe my shots. I could have been a professional. Right down the middle.  Pretty shots.  My putting caused me to go one over par called a bogey. The next home was a double bogey. The third was 3 over par.


Suddenly I  lost steam. I had gotten very hot. The hat I wore was more of a negative than a positive. I was sweltering. On the 4th hole I sat under the trees and just sat.  I could not hit another ball. I could not. Spent. However my game until that point was the best I had done consistently since we started playing last April.


(JH: Was speaking to MMutR about Toodles’s feat and he was most impressed. My only contribution to this is I only ever played 9 holes once, for 58. Don’t think that matches Ms Toodles … frightening really.)

14. She’s not the only one saying it


13. It came to a head in 2014


12. The stylistic error of Sparkle


11. This ostrich farm thing in BC, Canada


Not so sure it was just on a whim … there was something in it for the dreeps, either monetarily, satanically to stress people out … or both … maybe to inure people to callousness, to have us in a daze:

Tuesday [6 to 10]

(0734) Morning all again I think, seems bright out there. (0802)

 

10. She’s a porter, Moosh?

9. We had that issue, resolved class by class

… afa the teacher him/herself saw it. My view was that if warned far enough ahead, it was fine, I could package a light bit of reading and questions for the child. I valued the goodwill of the parents more … but not as a soft touch.


8. Not sure who this woman in govt is

… but think you get the idea.

7. Chris Morrison for TDS (navbar)

“Further dramatic scientific evidence has emerged to show that the UK Met Office’s 387-strong temperature network is hopelessly corrupted by unnatural heat influences and is effectively useless in providing credible guidance on many individual measurements and average trends. Since the Met Office has so few stations in pristine, uncorrupted CIMO Class 1 and 2 locations, where no errors are likely, nationwide ambient air temperature averages are impossible to gather, but Dr Eric Huxter has done the next best thing. He has examined over half a million 60-second measurements over the year at the Class 1 site at Rothamsted and produced a benchmark database against which the obviously unnatural ‘heat spikes’ that litter junk Class 4 and 5 sites can be compared. His results are truly shocking. One set of junk sites declaring daily spiked maximums since late April are on average well over 2°C higher than that expected at Rothamsted.”

6. This Tylenol thing

Fauci all over again … ok, says Donny, Tylenol bad but don’t worry, I have an eminent pharma here to give you this new wonder drug instead. What is it with the Donald? In thrall to Big Pharma?

Tuesday [1 to 5]

(0533) Dark out there. (0633)

 

5. With apologies to Bob Dylan

… on the hormonal misses running departments just now, imagining a time when their Chuckette reign of terror finally comes to a close.

Once upon a time you dressed so fine
Robbed people’s last dime in ministerial prime, didn’t you?
People call say ‘beware doll, you’re bound to fall’
You thought they were all kidding you
You used to laugh about
People of the land stressing out
Now you don’t talk so loud
Now you don’t seem so proud
About having to be scrounging your next meal

How does it feel, how does it feel?
To be in tears, striking wild
Like a stymied beech, like a pouting child

4. Like a pouting child

a) Have the French fallen out of love with elections? Or have they decided that it makes no difference – the politicians always do what they want – not what the voters want?

b) Tusk [is] weakened by the dawn raids and brutality of his government.

c) Through the night of September 9th, Polish airspace was invaded. Flying from Ukraine and Belarus, between nineteen and twenty-three (Russian?) drones drifted westward into Polish; and, therefore, NATO; airspace (JH: repurposed downed Russki drone shells).

d) The loan of the Bayeux Tapestry to the British Museum [suddenly promoted by Macron] represents a “technical challenge,” acknowledged Philippe Bélaval, the advisor tasked by the Élysée Palace with the operation…..
