The Quotes of The Day


Quote I

“If I think something’s not factually correct or a misinterpretation of reality my job is to tell people the truth as I know it,”NYC Mayor De Blasio


Quote II

“In many areas, we are behind our competitors. The most popular messaging service in the U.S. is iMessage. The fastest growing app is TikTok. The most popular app for video is YouTube. The fastest growing ads platform is Amazon. The largest ads platform is Google. And for every dollar spent on advertising in the U.S., less than ten cents is spent with us.”Mark Zuckerberg


Quote III

My friends, this election is about more than who gets what. It is about who we are. It is about what we believe, and what we stand for as Americans. There is a religious war going on in this country. It is a cultural war, as critical to the kind of nation we shall be as was the Cold War itself, for this war is for the soul of AmericaPatrick J. Buchanan

Quote III, Pat Buchanan was right in 1992. The proof is in the pudding.

CBS News Poll: Majority Now Find Kneeling During the National Anthem an Acceptable Protest

A new CBS poll finds that a majority of Americans now believe kneeling during the national anthem as a form of protest is acceptable.

A stunning 88% of Democrats are ok with kneeling during the anthem compared to only 23% of Republicans.

CBS News reports most Americans view professional athletes kneeling during the national anthem to protest racial discrimination as an acceptable form of protest, but there are divisions along political, racial and generational lines.

Dr. Make Shit Up Fauci is at it again.
Americans can't seem to handle wearing masks to stop the coronavirus. Now, imagine if the CDC changed its guidelines to also call for "eye protection" like medical goggles to stop the spread of the virus (and protect your neighbor, as well as yourself).

Well, Dr. Fauci is apparently preparing to do just that.

During an interview with ABC News, Dr. Fauci said Wednesday that he may soon advise Americans to wear 'eye protection' to avoid being infected by COVID-19 as deaths along the Sun Belt climb to record highs.

"If you have goggles or an eye shield, you should use it," the doctor said, before adding that it's not universally recommended, "but if you really want to be complete, you should probably use it if you can," he said.

If you thought things were bad at 29. Just wait until you're 30.

In the mid-to-late-20th century, the American economy and culture were ripe for 30-year-old men, who — more than European and Japanese — typically landed well-paid careers, bought homes, and supported large families. But since then, getting ahead has become much harder.

Sometimes, crime pays. And sometimes it doesn't.

David Tyler Hines is the Florida man accused of using money from the Paycheck Protection Program, which was established to help business owners pay their employees amid the coronavirus pandemic, to buy a Lamborghini and other luxury items for himself.

Hines is facing federal charges for bank fraud, making false statements to a financial institution and engaging in unlawful transactions, according to a Department of Justice news release. Hines appeared before a judge in the Southern District of Florida on July 27. He was released from custody later that day, according to federal inmate records.

It's time to leave Afghanistan. Now.

In his yearly Eid-ul-Adha message, Taliban emir Mullah Haibatullah Akhundzada issued a rallying cry to his fighters, saying the Taliban is “on the threshold of establishing an Islamic government” after two decades of fighting.

The Taliban has been adamant that the only acceptable outcome for the country is the return of the Taliban’s Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan with Haibatullah at its helm. In his statement, Haibatullah yet again called for the establishment of a “pure Islamic government” and an “Islamic system” for Afghanistan.

His message was released on July 28 on Voice of Jihad, the Taliban’s official website. Haibatullah mentioned the return of an “Islamic government,” “pure Islamic government,” and an “Islamic system” five times in his short statement.

Now, after signing a so-called ‘peace’ deal with the U.S. that facilitates the Americans’ withdrawal from Afghanistan, Haibatullah says the Taliban is finally close.

But contrary to the popular opinion that peace will be at hand once the Taliban conducts “intra-Afghan negotiations,” Haibatullah says that there will be peace once “a pure Islamic government” is established [emphasis ours]:

We do not hold personal vendetta against anyone but have raised arms to defend the sovereignty of our homeland and establish a pure Islamic government. We seek a peaceful life with everyone once those objectives have been met.

Message of Felicitation of the Esteemed Amir-ul-Mumineen, Sheikh-ul-Hadith Mawlawi Hibatullah Akhundzada (may Allah protect him), on the occasion of Eid-ul-Adha, Voice of Jihad. July, 28, 2020. [PDF]

Reason 872 not to visit Pakistan.

A Pakistani man on trial for blasphemy has been shot dead in a courtroom, in the latest violent incident connected with the country’s blasphemy laws.

Tahir Ahmed Naseem had been in prison since his arrest in 2018, allegedly after claiming he was a prophet. He is a member of the Ahmedi sect, which is persecuted in Pakistan where they have officially been declared non-Muslims.

The shooting took place at a high-security complex next to the Peshawar high court.

“I was sitting on my seat in the office around 11.30 when I heard the firing,” said Saeed Zaher, a lawyer, who rushed to the site of the attack, and said the victim appeared to have been shot once in the head. “The killer was caught by the police and the body was lying on a bench within the courtroom.”

As Pakistan should not be on your Bucket List of places to visit. You may want to put Williston, ND on that list of places not to visit either.

I've never shot a motor vehicle. Yet.

Imagine you’re on your daily commute to work, driving along a crowded highway while trying to resist looking at your phone. You’re already a little stressed out because you didn’t sleep well, woke up late, and have an important meeting in a couple hours, but you just don’t feel like your best self.

Suddenly another car cuts you off, coming way too close to your front bumper as it changes lanes. Your already-simmering emotions leap into overdrive, and you lay on the horn and shout curses no one can hear.

Except someone—or, rather, something—can hear: your car. Hearing your angry words, aggressive tone, and raised voice, and seeing your furrowed brow, the onboard computer goes into “soothe” mode, as it’s been programmed to do when it detects that you’re angry. It plays relaxing music at just the right volume, releases a puff of light lavender-scented essential oil, and maybe even says some meditative quotes to calm you down.

What do you think—creepy? Helpful? Awesome? Weird? Would you actually calm down, or get even more angry that a car is telling you what to do?

Scenarios like this (maybe without the lavender oil part) may not be imaginary for much longer, especially if companies working to integrate emotion-reading artificial intelligence into new cars have their way. And it wouldn’t just be a matter of your car soothing you when you’re upset—depending what sort of regulations are enacted, the car’s sensors, camera, and microphone could collect all kinds of data about you and sell it to third parties.

Usually taking the dog for a walk is an uneventful experience. Unless you're a Genius Award Winner.

HOPKINTON – An early morning nude walk on Monday eventually led to a fight with cops and a Hopkinton couple facing numerous charges, authorities said.

Police arrested Mariel Kinney, 32, and Kevin Pinto, 30, after the 6:30 a.m. incident on Hayden Rowe Street.

“It was kind of wild,” said Police Chief Joseph Bennett. “It wasn’t the typical day in Hopkinton, that’s for sure. They were buck naked.”

Police went to Hayden Rowe Street after receiving calls about two naked people walking a dog. Officers saw Kinney and Pinto, who were completely nude, walking down the street with a medium-sized black dog named Lucy.

“According to the officers she is a very good dog,” Bennett said.

Questioned if they were OK and why they were unclothed, Kinney and Pinto either said they didn’t want to answer or answered incoherently, Bennett said.

Capitalism, alive and well in a 13 year old. Tonight's Feel Good Story of The Day.

Gabriel, 13, mows as many yards as he can to earn money. He was buying mowers at yard sales and pawn shops to keep him going, only to have them break down.

Then he met Shannon Ingram, who works at Lowe's in Cleveland, TN.

Ingram and Gabriel chatted in the aisle while the teenager browsed the store's lawnmowers.

"Y'all know how hot it was yesterday. He mowed 7 yards yesterday and his mower died," Ingram wrote in a Facebook post. "So, he went to help level a yard for a pool, working until 11:00pm. Needless to say, when he came in to buy a mower, we were going to sell him this one for what he had saved."

But Ingram and her team at Lowe's decided to reward him for his hard work and gave him the mower for free.

64 Looking back on the years since then, Pat Buchanan was the man the US needed in 1992.


He was for defending the American economy, wanted to keep American kleptocrats from looting Eastern Europe, and wanted nothing to do with China.

Well...the whole Israel thing wouldn't have been great....but I presume Pat's response to 9/11 would have been a lot of Islamic rubble....and not that many boots on the ground.

67 The Williston, ND link is pure bull sh*t. This guy goes around the midwest baiting libraries/cops/park employees, etc. The library here asked him over and over to please move out of a prohibited area. He forced the staff (a bunch of 90 pound women) to call the cops for assistance. He then refused to show them any id as required buy North Dakota law. He had already set up his equipment so the confrontation could be filmed. After his release on bail, he has attempted to dox and harass the employees. You might want to view some of his other videos on what he does before hailing him as a "hero". He is an assh*le and we can hardly wait for him to leave our community - or better yet do jail time.

Apparently in a lot of states, it's illegal to hang a mask from your rear-view mirror, because it can...obstruct your vision while driving. Or something.

This is another example of BLM getting co-opted by someone who is not black, who will ultimately profit off of the backs of this movement. She has made this about her when the very core value of all of the walls groups has been that this is not about us it's about black lives.

Posted by: ALH at July 29, 2020 10:29 PM (Y0bLv)

Two completely different voices and styles.

Cass had the the "bigger" voice, and a personality to go with it.

Karen's contralto was simply one of a kind special, but not the kind of a voice that could fill a room.

217 Tcn,

One thing that drives antisemitism is the catholic concept of replacement theology, whose influence was also passed down to some Protestant denominations as well. Its the idea that the church is not meant to coexist with the Jews but replace them altogether. From that stems a lot of hatred for the Jews such as calling them Christ killers and is why many would joyfully fap themselves with glee at the thought of them being wiped off the planet.

For those with nominal religious backgrounds or atheists the hate is incoherent. They somehow think Jews are the reason for everything wrong on earth including their control of the weather..

249 Mama Cass probably did die of an OD, but as someone pointed out , she had been accepted by the "establishment" so they probably whitewashed that fact.

Same with Elvis. He died a typical rock stars death, but he'd always had a reputation as not even a drinker so it was soft-pedaled until it became obvious.

Posted by: tcn in AK at July 29, 2020 10:43 PM (qQnCr)

It is stupid, but I don't think it's difficult to understand the origins. In Roman times, Jews were resented because they didn't recognize the gods of other people and had customs (like circumcision and not eating food prepared by gentiles) that other people considered inhospitable and weird.

In the Christian era, they were a small minority in every country they lived in and those countries were ethnically and religiously homogeneous. The practice of using Jews as moneylenders (because Christianity barred usury) was advantageous for aristocrats because it kept the public from being angry at their rulers and focused the anger on the middlemen. Then add to that the misinterpretation of the Gospels ("his blood be on us and our children") and you have a potent mix for hatred.

Middlemen are always hated. So are successful minorities. The Chinese who settled in other far eastern countries and became successful were also hated by the locals. But the anti-Chinese hatred didn't have the religious component and the Chinese were not stateless like the Jews.

Then again, my father's side of the family had Irish ancestry and some of his aunts were still pissed at the English about the Potato Famine. Which they weren't, you know, alive, or in Ireland for.

331 Top pic is sensational.

Elmore James - had me at the opening riff. Great stuff. Pretty good voice, too.

Mama Cass - Sammy intro, Cass's outfit, and the song itself were altogether so screaming 1960s Pop ... also seemed like her voice was past its prime, but I just couldn't listen very long. Should dig up some great old Mas&Pas like 'i call your name' to make up for it.

It is strange, years after, to listen to what one once enjoyed, now tinged with knowing all about the sexual nasties and drugs and eventual deaths - it was still a good harmony group. Not Spanky and Our Gang, but good.

Posted by: Vanya at July 29, 2020 10:49 PM (BAsqb)


Bullshit.

Catholic dogma is clear and clearly stated. Christianity is the fulfillment of the OT, not the replacement of it. The NT is pretty clear on the topic as well.

The fact that Catholics behaved badly over the years notwithtstanding, it isn't a tenet of the faith that we hate Jews. In fact, were we to do so, we would hate Jesus Himself, which would negate our entire system of belief.

And yes, I am fully aware of the horseshit that Catholics have engaged in over the centuries and I excuse none of it. However, the rabid Jew-hate really is more Protestant. Read Martin Luther, particularly his treatise on the Jews, or Calvin when he gets a full head of steam up. There really is nothing else so vile.

Would be nice to read Catholic history sans the "enlightenment" overlay, which is rabidly anti-Catholic and projects all sorts of crap upon actual Catholic history. It is no more enlightened than the dark recesses of the mind from whence it grew.

413 CBD if you're still here, if you haven't yet you might enjoy a book - The Brigade, by Blum - about the British Army's Jewish Brigade in WWII. There's also a very good documentary, same topic, on UToob (I think, I should check) - probably interviewing a few of the same people the book drew upon. Like much about early modern Israel, there's an incredible, theatrical dimension to the audacity, skill, and spirit of the guys and the amazing stuff they pulled off.

416 I'm surprised at the support for Israel and the lack of anti-semitism in the conservative movement in light of the percentage of the Jewish vote that goes to the Left. Another reason the charge of racism against conservatives is ridiculous.

It was the Romans who did the torture and crucifixion. Logically, if Catholics should hate anyone it should be Romans.
Now, I know the reasons behind that. Rome pretty much ruled the known world so sucking up to them meant survival. I do not and shall not ever believe in collective guilt or punishment.

If anyone needs someone to be mad at, they should be mad at...

Wait for it...

Wait...

The Helvetii tribe of Gauls.

What's that, you say?

Well, the Helvetii decided to migrate their people, which brought them into Gaul, and into the areas controlled by Roman allied Gaulish tribes, who appealed to Rome for military assistance, which kicked off Roman military involvement, which catapulted Gaius Julius Caesar to riches, fame, political success and the Dictatorship, which ended the Roman Republic...

...And led to his assassination, but he willed his name to his adopted son (actually nephew) Octavian, who became Caesar Augustus after yet another civil war, who married a woman named Livia who had two sons named Tiberius and Drusus from a previous marriage, and he adopted them but Drusus died and he killed and exiled all his own bio-kids so when he died Tiberius became emperor...

...But Tiberius was kind of a crazy asshole chomo who retired to Capri to drink and eat and fuck twelve year olds and left running the Empire to a guy named Aelius Sejanus who gave out positions to all his cronies including the governorship of Judea to his bro Pontius Pilate, who wasn't very good at his job, but then Tiberius found out Sejanus was plotting to shiv him and take over so he had Sejanus and his wife and kids and friends and pets and drinking buddies and his entire Christmas card list fucking killed...

...And Pilate is in Judea thinking OH FUCK OH FUCK and the locals are restless and he *CANNOT* risk an uprising and then the Sanhedrin comes to him and says, Bro, can you take care of this heretic for us and he thinks... Well, if it's this or riots and rebellion...

So yeah. It's all the Helvetii's fault. Fuck those guys!

BTW, the now defunct "Riot Ribs" in Portland has accounted for some of the $300,000 they got in contributions, but nowhere near all of it. They used part of the money to buy two mobile cooking vans that they will use to deploy at demonstrations - in California.

Apparently they take the threat of the Portland gangbanger who took over their business that he'll kill them if he sees them again, seriously.

Also, there's no indication that they formed a 501(c)(3) organization, so someone has just gotten $300,000 in taxable income. That's enough money for the IRS to notice.

Posted by: Doof at July 29, 2020 11:31 PM (mZUr4)


It depends. I mean, top two ever is easy:

Sazerac 18, now unobtainable except with huge money, but about 8 years ago, it was sitting on the shelf at my local liquor store for around $70. Best rye I've ever tasted in my life. I still have one bottle, waiting for the right occasion to open it.

Whistlepig Old World Cask. This was a splurge when got a bonus. Really really nice.

But that's fantasy stuff. For normal consumption, the basic Sazerac is a go-to, and the best possible choice for its namesake cocktail, which is one of my favorites.

Blame Hannibal.

If he doesn't cause the Second Punic War then Rome doesn't destroy Carthage in the Third. They don't have as strong a hold in Africa. And likely don't get involved in Numidia, which likely prevents Marius and Sulla's rise which was a precursor to causing the Triumvirate, which is how Caesar gained his power.

one, died on the Cross for our sins, and was resurrected 3 days later?

Because the only possible just punishment for sin is death. And we can only die once, and sin much. So God appointed a sacrifice worth all the sins we do, and not burdened by sins of His own.

If anyone needs someone to be mad at, they should be mad at...

Wait for it...

Wait...

The Helvetii tribe of Gauls.

What's that, you say?

Well, the Helvetii decided to migrate their people, which brought them into Gaul, and into the areas controlled by Roman allied Gaulish tribes, who appealed to Rome for military assistance, which kicked off Roman military involvement, which catapulted Gaius Julius Caesar to riches, fame, political success and the Dictatorship, which ended the Roman Republic...

...And led to his assassination, but he willed his name to his adopted son (actually nephew) Octavian, who became Caesar Augustus after yet another civil war, who married a woman named Livia who had two sons named Tiberius and Drusus from a previous marriage, and he adopted them but Drusus died and he killed and exiled all his own bio-kids so when he died Tiberius became emperor...

...But Tiberius was kind of a crazy asshole chomo who retired to Capri to drink and eat and fuck twelve year olds and left running the Empire to a guy named Aelius Sejanus who gave out positions to all his cronies including the governorship of Judea to his bro Pontius Pilate, who wasn't very good at his job, but then Tiberius found out Sejanus was plotting to shiv him and take over so he had Sejanus and his wife and kids and friends and pets and drinking buddies and his entire Christmas card list fucking killed...

...And Pilate is in Judea thinking OH FUCK OH FUCK and the locals are restless and he *CANNOT* risk an uprising and then the Sanhedrin comes to him and says, Bro, can you take care of this heretic for us and he thinks... Well, if it's this or riots and rebellion...

So yeah. It's all the Helvetii's fault. Fuck those guys!

Yeah the fantasy unobtainium stuff is fun when you find it but it's always good to talk about stuff that you can actually find and afford.

I too enjoy "Baby Saz" - the normal Sazerac rye. Got a half full bottle from a year ago that I found just outside of Baltimore for $25.

Whistle Pig 10 year is probably my favorite as far as smoothness and flavor.

I'm a huge fan of Bulliet Rye (not so much Bulliet bourbon) - especially for the price.

And if you are in KY or the Cincy area, New Riff makes a very nice rye.

It wasn't an original or widespread belief nor did it originate with the Church so naturally it took some time to address. The first Christians were "Jews". Theologically non-Jews are the ones being grafted into Christianity, those Jews who did not convert being the branch that was broken off and to later be restored. Rome is significant to Catholics because both Peter and Paul were martyred there, Paul especially has a colorful history.

546 Ha! So a journalist named Daniel Funke has decided to doxx the doctors in the HCQ video in the crappy online piece of shit called Polifact in which he now says all these "doctors" are essentially quacks and physicians who have made erroneous statements in the past.

Well, Dan, allow me to doxx you...

Dan Funke is a openly gay German reporter for Hubert Burda Media - he's actually the head of it. He is nominally married (to the degree that you actually can be) to a dude named Jens Span who is a politician for the CDU which is a party that sided with the Nazis during WWII - thanks Dan!

Dan and his gay lover got into a love spat with...Ric Grennell and his partner and have been exchanging hate mail ever since...had enough Dan? Or should I go on? You want to doxx folks as not normal? You had best not be a complete wackadoo yourself...

549 > She was staying at Harry Nilsson's London flat when she died.

It was the same bedroom that Keith Moon died in a few years later.

Nilsson had acquired the flat so he'd have a place to stay when he was in London, and had handed out keys to a number of his musician friends.


He sold the place after Moon died. I guess having two friends die in your guest bedroom kinda took the appeal off the place.

They got signed to Motown, but Berry Gordy dropped them after he found out that Rick James (real name: James Johnson) was actually an American who had deserted from the U.S. Navy.

Several tracks were recorded, and an album was in the works, but nothing was ever officially released (one or two appeared on Motown compilation albums).

The big advantage of shooting in a 4k, 8k or 12k format is so that directors can actually *crop* a moving picture image, just like a still photograph can be cropped, and still retain a very high-definition, highly detailed electronic image to throw up on the giant CinemaScope screen.

628 617 Romeo, I don't believe the human eye can discern much of any difference between a 4k and an 8k image projected on a TV screen.

The big advantage of shooting in a 4k, 8k or 12k format is so that directors can actually *crop* a moving picture image, just like a still photograph can be cropped, and still retain a very high-definition, highly detailed electronic image to throw up on the giant CinemaScope screen.

633 Old Overholt is the classic rye bars have used forever. Sure it is not the greatest thing ever, but at least they kept making rye while pretty much everyone else gave up on the stuff. There is a reason so many brands that sell rye source it from Indiana. When Rye got hot 8 or so years ago, no one had any. They had to buy it from LDI, now MGP. The exception to this is Wild Turkey, they have always produced a decent amount of Rye.

Some decent rye's that don't cost too much are Sazerac and Rittenhouse. The Sazerac used to be a six year but they dropped the age statement like most of the whiskey makers. The Sazerac 18 is a trophy bottle that can be more rare than Pappy depending on the year and the state. I have had it a few times and it is good stuff for sure. I don't know if it is worth it but it does cost less than Pappy if you can get it. I never got a bottle of Van Winkle Rye, though I tried.

Now companies are producing more rye but most of it is young stuff. The young stuff can be quite good though.

And all he had to do this time was to talk about the mental incompetence of he who confronted Corn Pop. His is a role player. And as soon as his failure theater is over, he turns attack dog.

His anti-Biden spiel recently is, I think, his version of Jackson going on to Fox and intentionally saying he would cut the nutless wonder's nut off. In both instances, imbecile so called undecideds are supposed to conclude that the candidate is middle of the road.

655 Since I was a kid and heard blame-the-Jews, it never made sense to me. Whut? They were all Jews, Jesus, the Apostles, Judas, the crowds, the big shots gunning for Jesus. With a dash of Roman."

since this was brought up - it always struck me (and I believe any truly devout Christian) that this entire idea violates the fundamental tenets of Christian theology; or in simpler words, there is no way a devout Christian would believe this. (a fake Christian who doesn't know what his pretend faith is about, yes, that person could)

This is why: Christian theology teaches that the entire purpose of Christ's life and death on earth was to serve as the perfect Sacrifice for mankind's collective guilt, over all time. He died for me, and for you, and for all the rest. No one can say "the jews were at fault" because ALL of mankind was at fault! And of course, his death was pre-ordained, or else the New Covenant could never have come about.

This is not some fringe belief, this has been one of the most basic core beliefs of all Christianity for 2,000 years. All of mankind bears the guilt, and the only way free is forgiveness and grace.

It also degrades at a decent pace (film from 40 years ago -need- remastering when put on blu ray or they look horrible) and is -expensive- to store in a location to help slow the degrade, which is also why so much old material is gone as it was ditched when studios didn't see the profit in keeping it, which is why the BBC got rid of so many old Doctor Who episodes.

As well as still smuggle out survivors from camps up in that region, including one mass transfer of hundreds in two back/back 30-hour convoy trips to Marseilles.

722 685,

I hosted a very interesting "Model Shot" one weekend back in the day on the sound stage at Panavision. The primary photographer was using a Hassleblad H6D with a multitude of Zeiss lenses. During a break I was curious and asked to look through lens to see what he was seeing. He smiled and handed it over and just as I put it up to my eye, he quietly intoned, "Be careful, that's 75,000.00 worth of camera gear your holding." It was a VERY QUICK look indeed and a slight tremble in the hands as I handed it back.

736 Muldoon - have you seen the Band of Brothers episode "Why We Fight"? Which was itself a nice borrowing of the classic propaganda film. Landsberg "Arbeitslager", I think, was the camp depicted, which the 506th liberated.

Related - as the Brigade was transiting German on the way to Belgium, there were, uh, irregularities. As in depredations against German civilians. Concern about this had been the reason the Brigade was not moved into Austria after the surrender, but kept in Italy.

The book doesn't go into much detail. The officers usually strived to prevent or stop such things - but the revenge blood-lust was obviously completely understandable.

I checked my sympathy meter as I read that part of the book and, sure enough, it had not recorded any movement.

Ditto for the earlier actions, in which a few members of the Brigade went out and did extra-judicial executions of Nazis, SS, and others involved in crimes against Jews (in Austria). Some of those were described in the documentary I think.

738 > By cultural norms, Ishmael should have been the favored son, but God chose Isaac.

That's one.

Another is that supposedly when Muhammad had his great revelation, he wrote it all down and sent it to the rabbis.

The rabbis said, more or less, "It's that crazy fucking Arab again. Ignore him and maybe he'll go away."

Mo continued sending his latest, the rabbis continued ignoring him.

One day Mo had had enough, and suddenly, during prayer stopped facing Jerusalem, and swung around to face toward Mecca (which up until then had been the center of various pagan Arab cults).

The rest is history.

There's a famous mosque called the Mosque of the Two Qiblas in Medina. The qibla is the mark that shows the direction of Mecca (or, in this very old mosque, both Jerusalem and Mecca).

They finally destroyed the Jerusalem qibla, but not until 1988.

The part I'm thinking of - a US infantry unit pulls into a village. One of the soldiers' family is from there. The Sherman tank hatch flies open, the guy starts speaking in Italian to the locals, and in seconds they're all hugging and carrying on.

763 Back on May 29, during the breakout from the beachhead:


May 29, 1944
Goodhan took me flying today. A "message to Garcia" sort of thing. A Lt of the 91 Recon was out on the point of II Corps advance and didn't know the situation. So he radioed for some help. Army turned the problem over to the Arty section and we sent Goodhan[d] out to look. He buzzed a few towns trying to find out who owned them till he finally saw a jeep parked in Norma, a little town built right on the top of a 1000' sheer cliff. He found a cow pasture up there and landed (not an easy job). Sure enough - there was his Lt - with 2 or 3 men, and they were all between Norma and the Germans. Goodhan[d] promised him a situation map and came back to the CP to get one. I went back with him on the second trip. As we circled the town to land the Italians started pouring out into the field. By the time we stopped rolling at least a couple hundred were gathered around shaking hands and raising a fuss in general.

And so, by that story (since Ishmael is claimed to be the founder of the Arab race), they Arabs have hated the Jews from the days when there was only 1 arab, and only 1 jew, and they were both toddlers.

Someday, probably after I'm dead, antisemitism will be explained to me so that I understand it. What, on earth or in heaven, did any Jew ever do to Buchanan to cause that kind of a reaction?

It's a form of pathological stupidity. Has to be.

776 There's a famous mosque called the Mosque of the Two Qiblas in Medina. The qibla is the mark that shows the direction of Mecca (or, in this very old mosque, both Jerusalem and Mecca).
They finally destroyed the Jerusalem qibla, but not until 1988

This is one of those fascinating artifacts that stuck around for a long time. In it one could see the huge gap between *actual* history and the mythical history that had to be built to "explain" it.

The Two Quiblas was testimony to the time when *both* Mecca and Jerusalem were given equal reverence by the earliest version of Islam, during Mohammed's lifetime. (if there actually was a Mohammed) For the first 150 years, almost NO written records exist as to what was going on, even the first complete Quoran we have dates to almost 150 years after the time it was supposedly written.

There's a very good historical case to be made that there was a general revolt against the Byzantine Empire by the monophysite Christians, the remaining Jews, and new Syncretist religion founded by Mohammed, and they all lived in a rather fractured unity for the first 100 years. Then, a powerful Arab dynasty finally arose and consolidated all of that, and began forcefully erasing all the remaining elements of Christianity and Judaism, in order to cement their hold on power, and to create the Caliphate.

In this interpretation of history, it was the court writers of this new dynasty who, in the late 700's, put together a bunch of disparate writings and called it the Holy Quoran, and who ascribed it all to a warrior-preacher named Mohammed who had lived 150 years prior to most of it being written.

in other words, it was all a gigantic fraud meant only to cement one dynasty's hold on power.

778 Arabs claim to be descended from Ishmael, but they have no genealogical records to prove it, never did. Descending from Ishmael is another lie they tell to give themselves legitimacy.

779 Well, I got the the clutch for the Panhard finished today. Drilled out the rivets holding the hub to the web, on both the original and the donor part.

Drilled the holes in the hub out, and tapped them for 5/16-24 screws. Had to open up the holes in the donor web, too. Eight 5/16 bolts, coated with red Loctite, and the excess ends cut off, and staked. Won't be coming apart.

Determined that the bind in the pressure plate was where the release fingers bear against the steel ring that the carbon bush throwout bearing presses against. Took the ring off, flipped over the steel shim the fingers slide on, and lubricated it with moly spray. Used spray grease, sparingly, on the other pivot points.

Not having a dummy shaft to align the disc with the pilot bearing, I hit upon a work-around. Set the pressure plate on the bench, laid the disc on it, and shifted it around until the exact same amount of pressure plate was visible on all sides of the disc. Then I took my hot glue gun, and put little beads of glue around the perimeter (not between pressure plate and disc!). Stuck well enough that i could turn the assembly upside down, and the disc stayed put.

Reinstalled the assembly in the flywheel. Have yet to put the engine back in the car. Other things need to be done, first.

Remember - the origin of this was that a guy in Springfield has had a Halloween skeleton hanging from a noose in his yard for years. Antifa decided that this was racist,

Eugene Antifa decided to send a mob to the guy's house to intimidate him, and discovered that they had bit off more than they could chew, both from the cops and the locals.

Exhibit A of why Antifa can't operate outside of blue cities.

785 I was reading about cat horders, who keep 30 or more cats in their house. The cats tend to be in poor health.

When they are asked about it, "well at least they are not out on the street where people would abuse them." They imagine that it is very likely that any cat might be caught by a torturing psychopath. If you asked them what percent of human beings are like this, they would give an outrageously high number.

796 I missed CBD's comment in reaction to my Jewish Brigade comments, but more to JT's addition up above.

The book says that before the executions, the Brigade members would say "in the name of the Jewish people, I condemn you to death".

And it seems they were pretty careful, and pretty calculating, in how they did it. The book says that the central Brigade figure in this aspect took to heart advice from an US Army intel soldier with whom he consulted on info - work your way up the chain, don't settle for the small fish.

The one detailed story in the book about this is pretty amazing, and crazy. The Brigade had a German-speaking, Aryan-looking guy who actually had trained to impersonate a German soldier as part of a special group prepared in case Rommel wasn't turned back, and the krauts got to Palestine.

This guy went into an SS beer hall in an Austrian town not far from the Brigade's Italian base - hunting for the top guy who was running the rat line for SS escaping from that part of Europe. Convinced them he was SS looking to skedaddle. And then led the top guy to his doom not far away after closing time. Amazing.

The most serious High School Girlfriend I had, was a Niece of William Friedkin, of Excorsist fame. Kind of girl who at her Bat Mitzvah, the singer hired was Karen Carpenter.

Girl's Grandpa was a retired USAF Colonel, University of Texas Alumni, and a direct report to General LeMay in the immediate post WWII years.

I don't know how she ended up on the Jewish liberal/conservative spectrum.

But HE was the most TurboCharged, ass-kicking, anti Democrat Jew I've ever known.

He and I even kind of got along, after a fashion.

But I was soon pushed to the side, being a Gentile, and all.

That was more than forty years ago. And I'm not going to spend the $ to do the web crap to find out now, who is what with who.

Anyway, bed time for tired Peons. I did my good turn for the day, and mowed my neighbors' yard while they are on vacation. Grass was a foot high because his riding mower burned to the ground about a month ago. Took me three and a half hours to mow less than an acre. Had to make 4 passes over some spots, and it's still pretty rough-looking.

I was in the audience for Moshe Dayan at VA Tech in 1975. He would definitely not be allowed on campus today. At that time, the audience respectfully listened to Dayan and he took many audience questions, calmly asked, after his talk, too. It was interesting to hear his take on then recent history (1967 and 1973 wars), being someone who lived it.

As I learned in history classes, to understand History, always go for the source documents. Dayan was a helluva source document.

I'll never forget that we were had a walk a few blocks to get to Broadway, and the Ladies we were with got PARANOID as we crossed into a certain neighborhood, and then relaxed after we crossed a street just a couple of blocks away.

Well... Me and my Bud? had already been in Shitistan a couple of times, and noticed their behaviour.

Funny part? When we asked them about it? They had no idea what we were talking about. It was so part of daily life, they were not even cognizant of their own behavior.

Taught me a lot about City life, right there.

Illegal Alien Numbers Revised

"Demographer Jeff Passel notes that ESTIMATES of number of illegal aliens in the US have fallen while the actual NUMBER increased. For example, estimates of six to 12 million illegal aliens were common in the late 1970s, even though it was later estimated that about 2.1 illegal aliens were included in the 1980 Census.

But sure, it peaked at 12M in 2007.

923 Wait a minute. What Zuckerberg was actually saying was that almost ten percent of every advertising dollar is spent with "us". Funny how statements like that evolve when you start unpacking them.

Never mind who "us" is. The way he worded it, "us" could be just FB or it could be all the social media he cited together. It's a nebulous, meaningless claim from the left.


Guttman estimates 2020 advertising spending at $263 billion. You do the math. Then decide if you feel sorry for poor Mark.

America is becoming unrecognizable. The basic rights to life, liberty, and property are under siege. Government is turning its back on citizens, leaving them vulnerable to violent mobs. City councils are actively disarming and defunding police, and prosecutors are going after innocent people for defending their homes. Our elected leaders heap scorn upon us. Almost nobody in authority is telling the truth. Every institution except the local police is arrayed against normal people.

>Carlson is not a policymaker and he is not the president. But nobody has stuck his neck out like he has, night after night, standing up for America against those who want to destroy it. Nobody talks about what is happening to the country with more bravery, more precision, or more rhetorical power. His monologues are the works of a master craftsman. Amidst the confusion, they have the arresting clarity of a fireside chat.

Yes. After January we will all of a sudden have a vaccine and then the news will stop talking about it. Soon after that the masks will go away, quietly, as people realize they have been had...or not. The vaccine will just be a "face saving" device so the media can stop yammering about it...because if they just drop it on November the 5th it will look too suspicious.

956 As the country unravels, Republicans are out to lunch. President Trump, in spite of his good instincts, does not have the theoretical understanding to articulate the threat with any consistency or coherence. Partly this is a weakness of will, but it is also a failure of imagination.

>This is the visceral level of the danger we face: civilized life and the rule of law are at stake. Lives and property are in danger. Black Lives Matter is an anti-American faction that must be vigorously opposed. Now is not the time for navel-gazing or the hand-wringing accompanied with supposedly clever rhetorical traps about the racism of the Democratic Party 150 years ago.

>The continuing clueless rhetoric of the Republican party won't do. Those political leaders who still claim to represent the United States should be talking about the violent insurrection that is happening right now and confronting it, with the kind of urgency and candor that Carlson has done.

The Right knows this. The Left knows this. It is the only reason it even occurred to the New York Times to doxx him.

>These people don't see us as human beings, let alone as friends and fellow citizens. They see an opposition to be crushed by any means necessary. What they have done to Carlson, they would happily do to anyone who stands in their way. It's time for the Right to stop acting surprised at all of this. We have to see what's in front of us. We can either adapt or die.

They love their fans, and their performances were ALWAYS all about the music and their fans.

WP has been pushing the all Whites are the same and every Whitey is racist to the bone, except for the good Whites who recognize their racism and make up for it by condemning other whites...but not going so far as to inconvenience themselves or their kids' rights to go to the best schools.

Gene Simmons during an interview described how the members of KISS would do their normal wild debouchary even night afterward, and tried constantly to get Neil, Geddy and Alex to join in.

All three preferred to stay in, and continue to write songs, and talk to their wives on the phone.

Gene respected them very much, but could not understand turning down all the free Kooze to write songs, and talk to their families.

My own most common misspelling is "gave" when I intended to type "have". Has autocucumber ever caught and changed it even once? No. Does it recognize the error even if I highlight the word? No.

Let's not get me started on how erratic the cursor placement has become when I attempt to make corrections. It is infuriating.
