PROGNOSTICATION

I awoke at 3AM and began playing on my PC.

Rather than closing a tab, I clicked the weather channel on my TV.

Weather approximations are given for each hour of the day.

Temp and wind and chances of rain....

6 AM seemed ominous.

I BE MAD AT GOD!

I have been viewing West Wing again. (Season 2, Ep 22)

In this episode Mrs. Landingham purchases a brand new car. And yet, as she drives this automobile home, she is killed when a drunk driver misses a light and runs right into this brand new car.

The episode goes retro and sends us to the fifties or sixties when President Bartlett is either in prep school or college. It was during his youth that our fictional President first met Mrs. Landingham.

LIBERTY AND THE REPUBLICAN PARTY

There are many evils in this world, the fact is that we are not always confronted by these evils--mostly because we wish to ignore these evils.

Lately the subject of ‘anchor babies’ has been discussed; every hour of every day; and every day of the week.

This subject has arisen many times before, but Trump has appeared on the horizon as a beacon shining light upon this subject.

LIVE TAKE ON FIRST REPUB DEBATE; FOX

http://www.uspresidentialelectionnews.com/2011/09/fox-newsgoogle-republican-debate-tonight-at-9pm-et/

If Mike W or Mike M wishes to take over, fine. I will take this down.

I really am wondering how this goes down, as they say.

I DO NOT KNOW HOW TO DO THIS ANYMORE

A picture of an old man sitting alone on a straw chair with his head in his hands, evoking intense sorrow.

They just took away my Microsoft 365.

'They' do not even know who I am.

I cannot contact them.

Hulu threatened to erase me just recently.

I could not contact them.

I paid them all the money they asked for every month.

Paypal pays them every damn month.

SHELTER FROM THE STORM

I have come across several sites recently that show Eliz II giving the NAZI salute in the company of her Uncle (Edward VIII) as well as with the future Queen Mum.

I also recall rendering my theories about the abdication of Ed VIII, in previous unnoticed posts.

(of course most of my posts go unnoticed, and for good reason. Hahahahahah)

There are so many sites out there enthralled by a newly released picture of King Edward and the latter Queen Mum and the future Queen Liz II (as a child) giving the NAZI salute. Hahahha

It turns out that the British One-Percenters kind of liked this ‘new Germany’ in the 1930’s.

TRUMP IS TRUMPED

There are some things that politicians running for the President of the United States of America cannot say if they wish to win the nomination from either party.

GODDAMN AMERICA

Well that ain't gonna work.

And if there is anyone you once knew who actually is quoted as saying that….well.

I am viewing THE BIG CHILL

I can hardly handle it.

ARGUING WITH DUCKS

Duck Dynasty is currently filming some movie about the importance of JC in our lives. During this interview with one of the ducks, we are informed that every time we ‘sign a calendar’, we affirm the existence of not only the ‘True God’ but our belief in JC.

I do not know about you folks, but I cannot recall the last time that I signed a calendar.

There is some truth in what the duck says, as we can discover by examining our current calendar.
