Looks like they’re bi-weekly now. Or maybe they always were. Anyway, their back catalogue is online.

Fun read. Try it.

Somebody was just horribly murdered in the field next door. It sounded like a pig, though I don’t suppose we have any here.

I say that guardedly. There *are* wild pigs in the woods two villages over.

Do you have wild critters big enough to take out a pig?
Maybe stray dogs?

Smithsonian and National Geographic used to be enjoyable, and now they’re not. NatGeo apologized for pretty much its’ entire print run to date right here:

SJW’s — is there no wholesome thing they cannot pervert?

Not even the FBI is immune… although FIB may not ever have been “wholesome,” just, uh… as you were.

Anybody hear that Trump met with Lady May? At that same cHecquers place. And apparently convinced her to go Brexit despite everybody resigning in disgust at her negotiating ability.

The balloon was a joke, very small, and very unimpressive. Most people talked about the too high slit in the back of Mays dress. Or the crappy wood gate in the background. Churchill was born there – the gates should be iron, 10 feet tall, and majestic. Not something from Home Depot.

Don’t know how to post photos, sorry.

Also check out American Scientist magazine, non-stupid science reporting. Articles by the wonderful Henry Petroski.

This is because, as we have progressed, we have become smarter, wiser,
And amazingly stupid.

Full of feelz about things the 15 words in the headline, the 20 words on the chryon (cry-on!), or maybe the meme, gave us absolutely complete and accurate details on. Things we didn’t even know about 5 minutes ago, and won’t remember next week.

OMG!!!! Volcano!!! (eh? what volcano?),
World to be destroyed by super nova black hole (in 52 million years)
World can be destroyed by mega volcano at Yellowstone exploding WHILE it is sucked into a super nova black hole!
Chinese have super duper new thing that will destroy everybody else’s super duper new things!
Supreme Court pick will reverse Brown vs Board of ‘Educashun’!
Trump will turn back time!
GLOBAL WORMINGS! ICE AGE! RUNNING OUT OF OIL! Germans bomb pearl harbors!

Half our “news” is gossip, poorly done and thoroughly bogus paid for ‘studies’ and the other half is Kim Karcrashian taking her clothes off, again, today.

We might as well be sitting in a medieval tavern getting our news from itinerant minstrels, travelers, and local farmers who’s cow Boggie predicts the weather and various other man made or natural disasters.
“She shat right on that old church cornerstone in my field! And did you know, that very day in Rome, the Pope died! Omens it is, I tells ya!”

and rants from loonies.

I will say – sorry about our President walking in front of your Queen. Complete, though really not surprising, breach of protocol.

Now…someone please apologize for your queen “shooing” our President.

Which, on the whole, is why I really really like Queen Elizabeth the second. I hope she keeps her health, and her throne, for many more years.
God save, and bless, your Queen.

I think there’s a good chance both The Donald and The Elizabeth worked at “common” physical labor in their younger days.
I’m just wondering if the President was able to give an Ipod of his speeches to her maj.
And, given that Trump owns a bit of property in the UK, he’s in the unusual position of a yank politician paying taxes to the crown.

Feeling a bit bored and/or voyeuristic, check out #GuGate on twitter. The notorious Eugene Gu crashed and burned big time. First he got fired half way thru his residency and then his ex came out with proven allegations of the numerous sock puppet accounts he uses including one to stalk her. Last, she claims sexual misconduct by him. I can see why Vanderbilt canned him. Besides trashing Vanderbilt patient care online numerous times, they hint that he is not quite the great doc he claims to be. They of course can not discuss it without Gu’s permission. LOL

He’s crazy and a liar. When his past DV case was revealed, he told someone that the Republicans had hacked into the computers of the courthouse and planted that false information.

Try wild jaguars! Well, wild as in the Audubon Zoo — but this young jaguar got loose this weekend and went on a slaughter spree: https://tinyurl.com/yahgk4fy He killed 4 alpacas (bet they wish they’d stayed in South America), an emu, and a fox! So it wasn’t that he was hungry, it was that he freakin’ wanted to kill something. The zoo people say there was a hole in the fencing that wasn’t there last week.

Personally I think there are going to be some jaguar keepers posting their resumes on Indeed [dot] com.
