(1431) How bout that, eh? First post on new ipad air … took some setting up.

Let’s see if any pics came through:

Awwwww, ain’t that sweet! Nuff for now, still some setting up to do. Film coming up.

 

Narrator’s not bad and the footage is good but as one commenter writes … he repeats the same points over and over. Given that … maybe still worth a look:

14. Sidelights on the vaxx and lockdown years

… in which we were the guinea pigs.

Grinning Hancock, Fauci and Birx, Gates and Brock, Pence and Pepfar, DJT’s stupid Warp Speed, the heads of the FDA and their other interests, nightingale tent hospitals, dancing tiktok nurses, empty wards and clinics, single point of truth Ahern, Northern Territory, Oz concentration camps, thug plod, armed, accosting women and children in parks and on beaches, standing on spots in the supermarket after queuing 6 feet away from anyone, never 5’10”, masks while eating out.

Care home deaths, Fredo’s brother in NYC … the most horrible people at large … Whitty, Ferguson … it goes on and on … and then the Karens. Oh yes … the Karens, inc. Andrew Neil and others here, Kimmel across the pond. The dark side of human nature.

13. Tsunami?

12. Some Brit news

11. Eyes open

I’d not generally dwell on tales of someone who was taking an acceptable line but then who started asking difficult questions or quoting Revelation 3:9, nor would I bury a link somewhere in the complex, maybe in the least likely place, of someone asking such questions … so I shan’t.

a) According to a study conducted by the CSA Institute for the JDD, Europe 1, and CNews, 72% of French people want a referendum on immigration policy in France. (…) That’s three points more than in April 2024.

b) For months, Anne Hidalgo, the socialist mayor of Paris, has refused to disclose her expense reports to the public, as required by law. Forced to do so by the courts—thanks to the tenacity of a journalist…..

c) More trouble for Macron in Africa. France has decided to expel two Malian State Security agents stationed at the Malian embassy in Paris.

d) Evil. Is Lord Brooke, sitting one seat along from the sponsor of the Bill, advocating for assisted dying as a tool of population control?

“Meet Patricia Kirkman-Scroope, a Queensland magistrate. Earlier this year, Aldwin Serrano, a family man in Queensland faced a terrifying home invasion. A gang of thugs smashed a window and attempted to break into his home, threatening his wife and children. In a desperate bid to protect his family, Aldwin used pepper spray to defend them and stop the attack. But instead of being commended, Aldwin was charged with unlawful possession of a category R weapon. At his court appearance, this judge didn’t just rule against him, but ATTACKED him. She called his act “a misconceived attempt to protect your property” and lectured him: “You should know the law and know that these things are prohibited.” Translation: he should have stood there, letting his family be terrorised, because in her worldview, your family’s safety is less important than the rights of hardcore criminals. Despite a clean criminal record, he was placed on a six-month $250 good behavior bond. (Yes, really). There is no justice in this country. The Department of Justice and the judiciary exist to protect criminals from you. You’re not allowed to protect your family.”

Perfectly acceptable to look it up.

This is a most unusual way to do it … to review something before it’s even posted, mid-afternoon Sunday … but it was intriguing to me in ways mentioned below … sorry to be a bit mysterious and cryptic ahead of time.

Essentially, a Louisiana city’s famous busking band visits a city in France, they find the square where it seems buskers hang out and they play a nice number (track one) but even so, just to my ears and eyes, they’re slightly off the boil these days. Look I could be completely wrong on this and please set me straight but there’s just something with the boss girl cornetist and sidekick trombonist which is ok, no complaints … hmmmm.

Track two is a local band, similar setup, usual instruments … it’s pretty clear these two bands need to meet each other. This local band plays a nice number, almost exactly where, in the square, the Louisiana band do. One person I did not like at first was the tall beanpole girl trombonist who seemed to me to be trying to dominate. As I found out in the third track though, I was wrong … she was just a nice gal, anxious that it all went nicely and everyone got along … and she does play well.

The third track is the intriguing one … both bands meet, arrange themselves to play another nice number … there are teething issues, they get it sorted, they start. Ok, one expects it will take them some time and by the end, they’re all on song and they finish well together. If it were only that, I’d enjoy it but oh … it was so much more than that … interpersonal stories.

Look, I might be so, so wrong but it did seem to me that the Lousiana cornetist boss gal was slightly miffed and the sidekick trombonist was not too happy with his “rival”. The bands played two recorded numbers (only one of them on Sunday) and the L boss gal was not joining them in the second. Uh huh.

However, the other band members of both bands were fine … you could see the washboarders chatting, smiling, the rhythm section had it sorted, the local tuba gal was great, the clarinets and cornets were fine. Our beanpole trombonist, right in the middle of the line, could really play.

All up? A most intriguing Sunday jazz afternoon to be sure. Of course, you might see it quite differently, ha ha. Just listened to/watched that combined track again … oh that was so much fun … something going on bretween the two washboardists and that beanpole trombonist is a sweetie.

This is why I vastly prefer ensembles to orchestras, 20s to 30s directed, blended musak … gimme please solo after solo, all coming together at the end. Easy, Jimbo, time for your meds.
