Borgward

 

We had one of the models once … Goliath.

Curious thing, this, but every subject, every history has some curious details but it’s only when the curious details of one are combined with the curious details of another that a third truth emerges, of curiosity value.

My dad fought in the war … as far as I can gather, with two armies, and so did I years later, but in peacetime. Those two, my parents, were of an era when gollywogs were fine to have, Noddy and Big Ears was the reading and my parents warned me to have nothing to do with credit cards, as it was giving money to the Js. I have no credit card today.

Now that’s interesting, given that my father was in active combat against the Germans and Japs. He never told me his views on the commies but I noticed that when they (parents) went to Australia, he used to watch some man called B.A. Santamaria on the box, part of a party called DLP. Third party of the right in other words. So what he made of my youthful, student Fabianism I have no idea … we did not talk much.

Another thing was he bought a series of German cars, feeling, as many people did, that German engineering was superior. I had this attitude in Russia. As for myself? Always anti-communist … just how I reconciled that with my student leftism I’m not sure. My dad went back to Austins, then onto Hondas … think he was always after workable tech.

There’s one story which must have dashed dad’s confidence in German engineering. When I was 14 and at that time in Oz, we went for a trip Melb to Gold Coast and the car broke down halfway … was it the Goliath or VW? Can’t remember. We took an overnight coach back to Melb and that’s this other tale some know of where I spent the night on the back seat with two nineteen year old lasses, discovering the joys of female proximity, which set my mind forever.

B.A. Santamaria was a curiosity, as he was very pro-Catholic and we were nominally CofE, mother going Methodist as that church was nearer, geographically. Father was a Mason for awhile.

Just been looking up Goliath. Seems likely that my father was looking at VWs and/or smaller Beemas in Britain and Oz and I’d say the dealer, who may have been German, might have persuaded him. Just guessing. Curious parents, my parents. No wonder I’m a curiosity.

Father was at one stage a carpenter, a good one, saw him in operation, old style tools, never a toolmaker though, so my boat some years back was not entirely amateur … I’ve built fences, sheds but not a house yet. I did build a large pyramid once.

Friday [6 to 10]

(0534) Curious time, 5 to 7 a.m. as it’s rush hour on the Oz east coast, bedtime for North America, whilst Brits and Irish are just waking up and getting ready for the big commute. France is really the only news in these hours. (0649)

 

10. Moosh corner


9. Inside terrorist organisation Antifa?


8. Now the good stuff is starting to trickle in at 0638

I don’t mean my own below here, I mean n9 above.


7. Money laundering


6. DAD at 1155

a) For the second time in eight days, the French have voiced their discontent with their leaders with a day of strikes and demonstrations following on from the Bloquons tout! (“Let’s block everything!”) movement launched on Wednesday, September 10th.

b) September 18th demonstrations: a “clear” message to the government, unions to be received “in the coming days”. “Today, France vibrated [in] a single impulse to say ‘No to injustices’,” wrote Fabien Roussel (PCF) on X.

c) The European Commission has admitted that it channeled more than €600,000 of taxpayer money to the U.S.-founded Organized Crime and Corruption Reporting Project (OCCRP), sparking outrage among critics who accuse Brussels of financing leftist, biased journalism designed to discredit Eurosceptic and conservative voices.

d) UK PM Keir Starmer, Canadian PM Mark Carney & Australian PM Anthony Albanese. The new Script just dropped for the Western WEF Owned Political Puppet Leaders.

Friday [1 to 5]

(0418) To readers and/or contributors … there’s a certain amount of govt visitation this morning from about 0900, which means of course that I have from now till then to do various domestic chores. Going to divide the time as blogging and Xing until 0700, then a mix till nine, at which point who knows how long the hiatus will be. Just hoping nothing happens to the connection during the time. (0449)

 

5. Eternal victims


4. Plod again


3. Antifa


2. This is in the light of Johnson trashing Reform

… not sure if at the conference or at some special event.


In the light of all that … it’s clear that Farage has no real differences from the Uniparty … why can members not see how they are betrayed? On the other hand, with the best will in the world … Advance? Sadly, “the right” are split, being a cattery of unherdable cats … it’s in our nature. And we’re not “the right”, we’re just anti Woke, anti Globopsychos “above”.

Thursday [16 till close of play]

(1547) Not quite night. (1759) Getting closer though.

17. Corrosion from corruption


16. Rolf at Now and Next

“The German tripartite school system was abolished only a few years agobut it’s worth noting that the historian Correlli Barnett says Britain’s economic decline is partly attributable to the failure to modify its education system to train people who could turn scientific and technological discoveries into profitable commercial enterprises. Too many classical scholars, not enough engineers. Even now, in Britain engineering is a white-collar job, whereas in Germany it’s a profession and you put letters before (not after) your name, e.g. “Dr.-Ing”.”

Thur Mat

 

“Richard Basehart has moved on from his womanizing days in the US to steadier waters in the UK with wife Faith Brooke and now works as a successful producer for his wife’s father Roger Livesey. During the production of his latest project, which stars one of his former flames Constance Cummings, he receives several letters from a person he doesn’t know, claiming they had an affair. Initially thinking it’s an attempt at blackmail, he shrugs it off.

But when his wife also receives a letter, they decide enough is enough, and they visit the woman, Mary Murphy. When she persists in her story, even in front of the police, Basehart starts to have doubts. Could he really have forgotten?! Soon things start to fall apart for him, as Murphy’s story, fabricated or not, starts to threaten his marriage as well as his career.

Released in the UK as ‘The Intimate Stranger’ and ‘Finger Of Guilt’ in the US, this movie starts off as a marital drama (told in flashback by Basehart), and slowly moves into thriller territories before culminating in a pretty exciting final 20 minutes inside a studio set. Written and directed by 2 men blacklisted by Hollywood, Joseph Losey (‘The Prowler’) and Howard Koch (‘Casablanca’), the story can be easily seen as a metaphor for what they endured.

But the movie never becomes self-righteous or preachy. Most of the movie is filmed in a matter-of-fact type of way, focusing squarely on Basehart (‘He Walked By Night’), leaving the viewer guessing about Murphy (‘The Desperate Hours’) and the truth. Basehart is solid as a man who’s confronted with a past he’s forgotten about, or has he?

Murphy however is great, she manages to come off as both lying and telling the truth at the same time, shrugging of his questions with ease, which in turn confuses him even more. The rest of the cast are also good, thankfully, as the movie is dialogue-heavy and has a pretty slow pace, especially in the first half.

Visually the movie combines 2 opposites. The opening scene as well as the climax are shot imaginatively, appealing to noir heads. The rest of the movie however is shot in a mostly shadow-less, almost TV-like, manner. Having said that, DoP Gerald Gibbs (‘No Orchids For Miss Blandish’) does a nice job.

The climax inside a studio set is beautifully shot, with some creative shots and angles, including a fist fight that moves in and out of a light illuminating a projection screen used for dailies, projecting a shadow fistfight. It stands in stark contrast with the rest of the movie but it also makes the climax more effective. All in all, it’s a good drama/thriller that skirts into noir territories.”

Thursday [11 to 15]

(1240) Afternoon all. Cunning plan is run some more politics, then a filum after that … not the second Bplus (tomorrow) but straightB. Then who knows? Medical things, plus house issues.

Incidentally, tomorrow morning, must finish blogging by 0900 as there’s a house issue involving outsiders after that … no idea how long it will be, so short blogging hiatus then. (1338)

 

15. Kate and Melania

On Melania’s site:

Kate is 5’9″ in stockinged feet but here has heels of what … three inches? Melania is about lvel with Donny in some pics but slightly shorter in others. I thought Donny was over 6 feet. Some reports had him at five-eight, five-nine. Anomaly here.

This is what you get when you allow 100,000+totally unvetted young men into the UK. Those who allowed this open door immigration are partly to blame for this and the other crimes that the illegals have committed, including murder. They literally have blood on their hands. https://migrationwatchuk.org/news/2023/01/26/horrific-murder-in-bournemouth-shows-how-illegal-asylum-abuse-threatens-your-safety/

France – A General Strike is called by the unions for today.

a) After “Block Everything,” [last week] union organizations are taking to the streets on Thursday, September 18, 2025, to try to sustain the protests. Up to 900,000 people are expected to take part across the country.

b) France’s outgoing interior minister Bruno Retailleau has warned that the imminent nationwide strike risks degenerating into violent unrest.

c) Emmanuel Macron has spent much of the war in Ukraine apparently attempting to present himself as Europe’s primary resister to Russia’s military plans.

d) I [DJT] am pleased to inform our many U.S.A. Patriots that I am designating ANTIFA, A SICK, DANGEROUS, RADICAL LEFT DISASTER, AS A MAJOR TERRORIST ORGANIZATION.

“Big government bad, small government good? Take a look at this, Runnymede Council apparently stealing a 32 acre farm from an elderly couple. Causing them to be sent to prison for longer than the average ki**y fi**l*r, seven odd years for him and five for her…..”

Continues there.

Thursday [1]

(0332) Thank goodness it’s not one minute later. All right, awake after first sleep, in good nick, surprisingly … that attack really was an internal attack, lasted its standard length but very Woodsy in the way it went. Let’s leave all that for now and onto the main things in September … CK. Meanwhile, I’m back to bed, looking at a 7:30 a.m. restart or thereabouts. (0423)

 

Gathering some of what we have

Readers all … we have to read and watch I’m afraid, plus I can’t overly plainspeak. Poor old Redacted was caught out that way, it’s not his milieu but the NOWP thing was certainly factors to be added. In a few moments, I’ll look down my comments lists again and point to some links here.

Ladies first and this is Toodles … first where two chaps discuss it all:

HERE

… and then the BLG:

HERE

He describes it as “we keep going down and down in a downward spiral”. Yes, agreed. In the upper link, it’s pointed out that there are so many theories about, many which do seem to hold at least some water.

In this matter, as it is worldwide like TR’s now, there are some things we must do first:

Preliminaries:

a. Take care of ourselves first, meaning health, inc. mental, of ourselves and our nearest and dearest. Remember that it can be externally interfered with from jabs to Gates cloud to food to water. Overall health too … we simply can’t think straight if we’re not living right … stands to reason. Not as some health nut but that we have people at least partially dependent on us.

b. At the same time, the cyber world we inhabit, apart from pumping radiation into us 24/7, has other characteristics … it changes our stance, body position if on a phone, it removes our constant scanning for danger stance, it removes (un)common sense, vigilance, wariness, patience, postponement of intended reactions to provocateurs.

c. Everyone has a starting bias … it’s clear that IYE and Steve have opposite ones on the same country in the middle of all this … go to Jstack, look at Mark’s same constant warning. But to say, as many do, that it’s not also the deathcult … that’s stoopid. Of course it is. Plus China, India. It’s also techies like Elon v plebs like us. We have to allow for a priori biases, ok?

Let’s continue with some links:

THREE … both Redacted and Steve there

FOUR

Then to our main HQ coverage since the shooting, meaning links within posts, plus comments below the posts. In the same way, if you look at the clips, vlogs, always go into comments.

There are also things at other blogs, plus X but I’d suggest you really do need to know biases first in each case … they affect what’s included, skipped over, left out.

Then there is the end time scenario … don’t just dismiss that, not that we can do much … although the CK effect is that so many of the young are turning back to the gospels, which does not suit Ben Shapiro, who always twists that the Jewish way or Israeli way or Nethanyahu way … the three are not the same, nor equivalent..

And never dismiss the Triune God v the man with the tails, which involves an antiC who uses the hegelian dialectic principle.

There’s a hell of a lot of reading and watching just in those, before going more widely.

And that’s before we start the day’s doings … DAD has already dropped.
