15. More on Hungary


14. Moo corner


13. How does Britain escape all this?


12. IYE corner

a. There used to be a sign in the staff room of my F-I-L’s shop – “ You don’t have to be mad to work here, but it helps!” Wonder if it also applies in the Trump admin?
“ Waffle House employees in Rome, Georgia, say they have never laid eyes on Gregg Phillips, a top FEMA official who claims he was once teleported there……”

https://web.archive.org/web/20260407064818/https://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/americas/us-politics/gregg-phillips-teleport-waffle-house-employees-b2951959.html

“ Despite the criticism, Phillips doubled down on his supernatural account this week, claiming that the incident occurred while he was “heavily medicated” and that the incident was a “miracle” performed by God.”

Uh huh.

b. Dddddd“ Operation Epstein Fury: From Clinton to Trump — Israel’s Blackmail of U.S. Presidents From Melania and Kushner to Adelson and Trump Jr.’s Israel-linked media machine, the buried Epstein Files reveal a wider system of war, blackmail, and control.”

|https://phantompain1984.substack.com/p/operation-epstein-fury-from-clinton

Excerpt:

“ Trump’s attacks on NATO make more sense once you see where Netanyahu’s war line is heading. Netanyahu has already started naming Erdoğan (Turkey’s president) as a problem and accusing him of accommodating “Iran’s terror regime and its proxies.” If Turkey is being prepared as the next confrontation after Iran, then NATO becomes a barrier to Israel, not a shield — because under Article 5, in a future direct conflict, America would be bound to stand with Turkey against Israel.…”

c. China, The Middle East & Russia On The World Stage of Peace”

“ Iran has $100 Billion in frozen assets. Scattered amongst a handful of countries, the US controls their release… Originally frozen by Carter after the Shah was ousted by the Iranians and Muslim students took 66 Americans hostage in 1979. While the hostage crisis is often cited as proof of Iran’s terrorism, the reason for the hostage crisis is rarely discussed. 

The CIA created the crisis when they intervened in Iran’s sovereignty: On 19 August 1953, Prime Minister of Iran, Mohammad Mosaddegh, was overthrown in a coup d’état that strengthened the rule of Mohammad Reza Pahlavi, the Shah of Iran. It was instigated by the United Kingdom (MI6), under the name Operation Boot and the United States (CIA), under the name TP-AJAX Project or Operation Ajax. The Motive? Oil. ….”

The more things change the more they stay the same.

d. I rest my case: Follow the Money – Scott Bessent
The Soros Protege. The Tax Dodge. The Buddy Bailout. The Epstein Blockade. A Deep Dive Into the 79th Secretary of the Treasury. It’s a doozy.“

11. Paul Oosterhuis on X

Why were Australian Airforce drones and surveillance and targeting assets dispatched over the Geelong refinery around the time of the fire? If it turns out they were dispatched before the fire, this would indicate foreknowledge ( or complicity ) and would put paid to the “equipment failure” narrative. Something worth checking.

British 250s

 

Sometimes we do give away our age with posts like this … I started out with 125s … my fave was what I thought now was the BSA shaft drive … though I may be mistaken, it may have been chain … S7, S8 had shaft (?) … but the first I legally rode was the Triumph 350, with eyes on the Bonny 650. Thought 350 when Kawasaki arrived but then decided CB500 was my thang as an all rounder bike … city, some touring.

6. Another shocking appointment by Donny?

Trump’s pick to head the CDC, Erica Schwartz, would likely be a disaster (says Aaron Siri on X).

Schwartz led nationwide Covid-19 vaccine deployment and her long track record of directly issuing rights-crushing civilian and military vaccine mandates, including mandating injection of smallpox, anthrax, and flu vaccines into U.S. Forces, and discipling those that refused, reflects she lacks the basic ethics and morals to lead the CDC.

This agency does not need another cheerleader for industry; it needs a regulator over industry. Her prior promotion, let alone mandates, of nearly a dozen different vaccines leave little hope she will objectively oversee CDC’s vaccine program which has, between 1986 and the 2026, gone from 3 injections to 29 injections, including in utero, by an infant’s first birthday, while chronic childhood disease has gone from under 10% to over 40% of children, most related to immune system dysregulation.

SOURCES: For examples of Schwartz mandating vaccines, see:

Meanwhile, Peter Sweden:

This is not a “conspiracy theory” It appears that Pfizer and Moderna used a technology that was patented by Monsanto in the 1980s for use in GMO crops They reportedly used this to make the c*vid vaccine Source? Bayer who owns Monsanto is SUING Pfizer, Moderna and Johnson & Johnson for royalties So they used a technology that was originally developed for genetically engineered crops? I’m sure people would have liked to know this.

Further:

Very bad move by Donny … what is wrong with the man? Who is advising or pressuring him? Remember “Warp Speed”? Also look at RFK Jr sidelined, now doing podcasts like the rest of us.

Grrrrrrr….

3. DAD at 1355

a) Although the French presidential campaign for the 2027 elections has not yet fully kicked off, the Rassemblement National (RN) is already facing funding difficulties due to French banks’ refusal to grant it loans, forcing it to look elsewhere in Europe….

b) Canada. A 27-year-old Muslim woman was seriously injured Tuesday morning in Sainte-Anne-de-Bellevue, in Montreal’s west end. According to several police sources cited by the local press, her own father allegedly tried to kill her….

c) France. Following an intense parliamentary battle, French MPs have voted to permanently abolish Low Emission Zones (LEZs), which were supposedly intended to limit pollution from combustion-engine vehicles in urban areas….

d) 60% of French people believe that we are witnessing “a replacement of the French population by non-European populations, primarily from the African continent.”….

2. And the view of a colleen

I partially disagree with her … just on one point … in various ways, men can’t reach ladies’ heights, highly skilled … in others, the chaps do it better. And her accent … swoon.

1. Ireland last night

Thursday [16 till close of play]

(1403) Just finished training (tris and back), which was after a long conversation with MMutR whom I’m hoping is preparing an article for us. Before that I had to prepare a beef lunch, (fish later), as protein is the order of the day. Before that long conversation were around 10 to 14 topics to talk to him about … which followed the regular blogging you see before you at elevenses and earlier. In other words, full on until this moment now, when I start this evening’s blogging and Xing. Going to add a few of the 14 topics at a time, then rest up, perchance to snooze … you have your routines too of course.

 

30. Pringles

Another curiosity. I’ve given way to my Pringles addiction in the past few days … this morning, guess what was at the top of the recommended youtube list? Yep … analysis of all substances used in them, plus reconstituted potato … go ahead if you’ll still eat them now.

My interest is how did youtube know? The only way would be to access my supermart order online. Unless, of course, Someone else Above decided to warn me. Hmmmmmm.

29. A point of view


28. Saw this too


27. Saw this


26. It’s not just Moo I run


Quick quiz question … what fragrance does gorse give off?

25. Hard disks

If you’re a techie, you might be looking for 24Tb drives or multiples of that. This is not about the tech per se … more about the cost. A while ago, a 20Tb was around £200 … today £500. What seems to be happening is that the higher the ask in Tb, the higher the price shoots up … but there appears to becan upper limit to size, space.

If that is the case and tech is approaching its zenith about now … what then of AI demands?

24. Cirkear caught out, sneaky bstd?


23. At NOWP 1355

One from DAD, one from IYE … interesting viewing.

22. Viktor and this Magyar character

Well, for a start, Magyar is the ancient name for Hungary, rather than just a person’s name. Then there was Viktor conceding so easily, no insults, to someone from his own party offshoot. Who has now refused to open borders.

Uh huh. Was the whole thing a rightwing put up job … and now his successor has a supermajority? Interesting, eh?

21. A fellow Xer, Sophia

… the narrowboat ex-nurse, vaxx refusenik etc. (good girl), wrote a piece on X, warning off certain types … and I replied:


That’s not the part which intrigued me … it was that she reposted both parts.

20. Back to those topics from pre-midday

Giorgia, the clown and Italy … X is full of G and clown embracing … this sums up part of the nausea in Italy which I’ve already posted sshots on. Here’s another:


Giorgia has been taken, outmanoeuvered.

19. Moo corner


18. Karoline Leavitt

This is an exercise in not jumping before exploring. You’ll notice things in this:


It’s from a Johnny Midnight, using a Fox broadcast which I’ve taken a sshot of … presented by ILAN … did she really call Obama out by name? And in what context? I must go back to X and check.

……

Ok, I just rewatched it … yes, she very much did say it, she laid it out in detail what Obama did and when. Uh huh … now that precludes the influence, mishearing or whatever of JM and ILAN … she said it all right.

Ok … many have said this over the years. Yes, but this is KL at her presser, broadcast by Fox. Different other thing. Anything KL says is ok’d by the boss first. So … indictment?

17. Miranda

I mentioned the film, that there were two versions, one either side of the pond. He picked up on “Miranda” and said … and I scribbled some notes whilst listening … Miranda is connected to Serenity, which is part of the Firefly universe, which concerns an interplanetary govt experiment with widespread drugs which are designed to turn people compliant and meek … but instead turn them into monsters … a bit like globopsycho and the political class right now. He also mentioned The 27th Day … maybe that’s the film he was speaking of.

16. Redacted thumbnails

Youtube did a strange thing. If you look at the Wimpy post (thanks for the comments, chaps), you see a picture before you start it. All right but in my history queue, the picture is different:


In fact, YT warned me with a note, saying this video’s thumbnail has changed. Hmmmmm … what’s going on?

Thur Mat

 

Some interesting names associated with this film:

“If it weren’t for the fact that the two films came out around the same time in different countries, I’d say the other either copied the British Miranda or the USA’s Mr. Peabody and the Mermaid. Both William Powell and Griffith Jones go fishing and get themselves a fetching young mermaid for their troubles.

Ann Blyth’s Lenore in Mr. Peabody is a silent young lady, but that’s definitely not true of Glynis Johns in the title role of Miranda. She not only talks, but is rather well read on human kind. Of course one does not learn everything from books, especially some of the interspecies facts of life.

Because it’s a man that Miranda is seeking. The mermen of the oceans seem to be just not her type. And though Griffith Jones is married he is taken with her. 

Being a doctor, Jones concocts a wild cover story involving her being a paraplegic patient who has come to live with him and wife Googie Withers. He has dresses made an extra foot long to cover her tail and has her in a wheelchair for the most part. And she’s on an exclusively fish diet. Unusual doctor’s orders to say the least.

Miranda is a nice little fantasy and Glynis Johns practically glows in the title role. Besides Jones and Withers, other performances of note are David Tomlinson as their butler and the irrepressible Margaret Rutherford as the practical nurse who is engaged.”

Thursday [11 to 15]

(1059) Elevenses already, folks. DAD has a video up at 1355. (1059)

 

15. Important story from IYE today

There used to be a sign in the staff room of my F-I-L’s shop – “ You don’t have to be mad to work here, but it helps!” Wonder if it also applies in the Trump admin?
“ Waffle House employees in Rome, Georgia, say they have never laid eyes on Gregg Phillips, a top FEMA official who claims he was once teleported there……”

https://web.archive.org/web/20260407064818/https://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/americas/us-politics/gregg-phillips-teleport-waffle-house-employees-b2951959.html

“ Despite the criticism, Phillips doubled down on his supernatural account this week, claiming that the incident occurred while he was “heavily medicated” and that the incident was a “miracle” performed by God.”

Uh huh.

14. In the absence of Moos

Just reminding myself that I should roll with what we have at any given time. Being recently bereft of shorts such as Holmes, Dragnet, suddenly I’ve come into a surfeit of shorts on all sorts of topics … oh thankee, YouTube. Films also seem to be around … interesting ones.

Thus, I need to rethink the Moos until they start rolling in again.

13. Criminals of the west


12. How to stop the bstds?


11. Seems to be all over the world just now … coordinated

Wimpy

 

In 1980, I went on a trip to Oberammergau by bus … the bus stopped near or before Dover … at a Wimpy’s … in Paris, later, I was confined to my hotel room, as sick as a dog. It put me off Wimpy forever. Never had that issue at Little Chef.

Just on presentations for a mo … not sure about this man’s voice … is it real? AI? And this mania for drowning out presentation with music, however subdued … grrrrrrr … no matter.

Thursday [6 to 10]

(0852)(0926)

 

10. Epsom

Also on the networking theme … with mainly ladies and some chaps reporting from different parts of the west, it can take us out of home territory for some time each day … which is why I’d largely missed the Epsom story:


9. Moo corner

She only just started posting just before this post … I was out of Moos.


Someone commented on Moo’s pics not always being sharp and light … for me, it’s what she writes, the sometimes quaint manner, more than the pic itself. Sometimes it’s the pic.

8. Was contemplating whether to mention this or not

… as it’s personal … there are many agendas online and in my X profile, I write not to DM me (direct message) unless already a friend. This was summed up some time ago by Elon:


X, to me, is a networking site … our chaps make much of the running, e.g. Sadbutmadlad, the chapesses see things and go off exploring, then reporting, many gals are good sleuths … along the way, we not only make friends but miss it when someone hasn’t checked in for awhile, Dearieme at HQ. I do not use DM for contacts … always en pleine on the timeline:


It’s kept at a certain “cocktail party” or out for a walk level, unless someone has trouble, e.g. Deryl’s hubby’s heart attack, in which case, many of us will kick in with support … same goes at HQ here … I’m not sure why it’s all important but it is … wondering if Andy’s ok at this point.

7. More on the blaze … it’s a definite “thing”


6. Warning from a youngster
