Say it ain’t so Joe

And I approve this message because I am Joe Biden…and you’re not!

Picture this:

Trump reroutes pharmaceutical manufacturing
from China to New York Kodak plant

The Trump administration has awarded Kodak a $765 million government loan under the Defense Production Act to help speed the domestic manufacturing of certain medical drugs. A new division, Kodak Pharmaceuticals, is expected to create 350 jobs, senior administration officials said during a call with reporters Tuesday. The move is billed as part of a larger effort to secure a United States supply of critical pharmaceutical ingredients and modernize the Strategic National Stockpile. The U.S. International Development Finance Corporation, the agency that engineered the deal, has been working with the Department of Defense to relocate important supply chains out of China for months at the president’s direction.

Heard in passing: “…but, but…he’s a racist, a bigot, a whatever phobe…I tells ya. Imagine trying to secure our drug supply? Madness! The cartels are freaking out over this!”

You read it here first:

Oops sorry. I meant NFL.

My new category on this blog. It is called…ta da:

Liberal-Speak:

“Elect me and I will get rid of the GST” Prime Minister Jean Chretien said during the election campaign of 1993. After 27 years the GST consumption tax is still with us.

Forward to 2001 in Ontario: Dalton McGuinty

“If you elect me Premier I will not raise taxes.”

Once elected he implemented a health levy on every person and family in the province. For me personally that came in at $1100.00 per year. When asked about this he responded: ” That health levy is not a tax. It is a levy!!??”

Forward to 2018. Trudeau implements the Carbon Tax. But, but

“Its revenue neutral.”

See the source imageAnd…this is the best part Gerry. Hahahahaha, Canadians think the Carbon Tax is…hahahah, wait for it….revenue….neutral. Hahahahahahahahahahah.

And in the US Democrat (liberal) Senator Jerry Nadler says that riots in Portland and Seattle and elsewhere in the US are a myth, brought on by Trump.

And Here I Thought It Was Doritos

The Law of Unintended Consequences:

$80B – yes that’s a “Billion”- CERB program may hamper recovery by being a disincentive to work, provinces warn. Various premiers have warned that the private sector has struggled to rehire some workers due to the hard eligibility cut-offs under the program. For the un- initiated this CERB is a Canadian government initiative to compensate workers with $2,000 per month who have lost their jobs or have had their hours curtailed due to Covid. The program also allows employees to earn up to $1,000 per month to augment their benefit.

“Yo? Why work, Dude. Me and my partner can bring in almost 6 Gs a month almost tax free. Why work…loser. Yo, bro, lets spend it…on cannabis.”

Government communists, AKA Liberals and NDP, want to make this a permanent benefit, as in a Universal Basic Wage. They tried this in Finland but they had to cancel the program cause they couldn’t find anyone to work it!

Following on with this theme is another wonderful program brought to you by your local government…Glory Holes or how to have safe sex in this era of a panned-demic. I am not kidding.

Glory holes? Glory Be! Are youse kidding me? Says it all don’t it. (see grammar item below). If only I should be so lucky with a hole that big.

Yo? Dude? Dat hand ain’t no black hand dude ain’t it? Black Hands Matter!

And if you are using one of those Gloreeee Be Holes don’t forget to wear you’re mask:

Glad these holes are not see thru!

The English department at a public university declared that proper English grammar is racist.

Rutgers University’s English department will change its standards of English instruction in an effort to “stand with and respond” to the Black Lives Matter movement. In an email written by department chairwoman Rebecca Walkowitz, the Graduate Writing Program will emphasize “social justice” and “critical grammar.”

Walkowitz said the department would respond to recent events with “workshops on social justice and writing,” “increasing focus on graduate student life,” and “incorporating ‘critical grammar’ into our pedagogy.”(why can’t they just say educational programs?). The “critical grammar” approach challenges the standard academic form of the English language in favor of a more inclusive writing experience (like for who dude?). The curriculum puts an emphasis on the variability (and viability) of the English language instead of accuracy.

I hear that math is next on the chopping block to be deconstructed as a form of “Western imperialism”?

A young woman describing herself as a teacher, Ph.D. student, and “social justice change agent,” recently gained notoriety for tweeting, “The idea of 2+2 equaling 4 is cultural,” a product of “western imperialism / colonialism.” “It’s racist I tell youse.” said the English Gramar and Speling admissions rep at Rutger’s University.

Yes, even mathematics, held up as the most objective and neutral of disciplines, is being reshaped by critical theory, which claims that all ideas are social constructions by groups using their power to advance their own interests.

Ya dude, I always taught dat 2+2=22. Why shouldn’t it be bro? Just think if the Egyptians had fallen to this madness:

Or the space program:

Or this: 1+1=11…yessss!

Karma!

Although chips and cannabis are often considered the ultimate combination, the pairing resulted in a patently unchill situation involving both an arrest and a PR snafu.

This is my personal blog. While I have had this site up in my mind and “to do list” for a very long time, this is day one. But hey, I live for procrastination – and sailing! I cancelled this blog about a year ago due to some bad publicity coming my way but I had to reset myself as the world has really gone bizarro and my only defense against the madness out there is this blog. It keeps me sane.

I live in British Columbia. That’s Super Natural BC. Hippie-dom’s last vestige in Canada and probably on earth. Canada’s Greenie Province of protestors and environ-mentals – the wet coast and the left coast of Canada – Birkenstock paradise – land of fleece vests, Tilley hats, granola crunchers, tree huggers, cappuccino suckers, and…Salt Spring Islanders. Long skirts and gum boots. Hoelay Cliche! And, I am also a poor speller!! I repeet: I am also a poor speller. Live with it.

The site’s header reflects one of the island’s  great views – looking east – across the beautiful Saanich Inlet, and the rest of Canada. But don’t eat the shell fish here. It will kill you. And you can’t swim in the water. It will freeze your bollicks, and other things, off. But hey, that is progress. This land of septic tanks and red tide.

From this viewpoint you can see the Saanich Peninsula in the distance: Cole Bay, Pat Bay Airport, Brentwood Bay and the famous Butchart Gardens (infamous if you suffer from environmental allergies) down the way south a bit. US Gulf Islands in the near distance, beyond the peninsula, with majestic snow capped Mount Baker on the far horizon towering majestically and menacingly over us all. Just hope the big one never comes. We will be screwed. But then again winds are westerly here. Ha, whew! Vancouver and points east??…you’re screwed. Perhaps the environ-mentals can clap their hands and change the plate tectonics, tsunami dynamics and vulcanology …er.. volcanology of the area, just as they arrogantly claim that they can control the weather and climate. If only they could just increase taxes, destroy the economy and donate everything to Gaia. If only they could just…wait…that is already happening. Destroying the economy that is…covidly speaking of course.

I am a retired Naval Officer. Just about 37 years of dedicated, loyal, unadulterated, blemish free service to her Majesty, the Queen. Yes, her Majesty the Queen, I am proud that I served my Queen and my Country – Canada. By the very essence of the military’s left, right; left, right; left, right cadence I am non partisan but I am very relieved that Harper signed my retirement scroll. I retired as a Lieutenant Commander, or a Two-and-a-Half in the vernacular lexicon of naval life. Being the second most senior Two and a Half in the Navy when I retired I like to think of myself as a Two and Five Eighths!

Writing this blog is somewhat therapeutic. Hope you enjoy it. Please contribute.

Peter Green, a founding member of Fleetwood Mac, died yesterday. Never heard of him no doubt as he was not part of the California version of Fleetwood Mac. Here is an example of his music with the British version of Fleetwood Mac. This song was said to be an inspiration to the Beatle’s Abbey Road “Sun King.” David Gilmore of Pink Floyd loved it as well:

RIP Peter Green.

Slow to get started back. Almost a year. Great break. Wrote my third book. Coming out soon on Amazon. It is called Monk’s Orchard. Here is the cover design. Just mouse over and click the link.

It says I am married in the bio but I am not. I am a widower but the publisher thought it best to just leave it that way in the bio. So I complied. It took me a year to write this thing. I enjoyed it immensely. It is my hobby. I know….Covidly weird. Some people like to protest and destroy things as a hobby but I like to create stories….It;s like…well…I don’t know…good stories matter…so to speak, or write.

This will be short. My last post way back last August has some points that are still relevant for me. I will repeat them here:

I am an old fart. No doubt. I have always thought of myself as a people person, non racist. Over the years I have come across many people of all colours and races. My brother in law is black. My other brother in law is Japanese. I think they are great guys yet if I ever think of criticizing any one of their colour, as in Black Lives Matter, on the same grounds and on the same moral standards as myself, then I am attacked by the progressive crowd and considered a racist, a bigot, intolerant, red neck asshole…

I am a Christian. I am proud of the fact. I am unapologetic about my faith. Yet because of that I am considered as someone who must be absolutely stupid, irrational, imbecile, idiot. How can you even consider something like God as being relevant if you cannot see him or her, or feel their presence, or believe in their incredible legacy of love and salvation for all of us? Well, it is a matter of faith. Something that is lost on so many people these days, especially the Governor General of this great country of ours. Someone who has ridiculed my beliefs only because those beliefs are non scientific or rational in her eyes…

I used this video on my last post over a year ago. I love this song. The riff, the beat, were well ahead of its time. Came out in the 60s. It is a song full of paradox in today’s world. It is a song of Christian faith, psychedelic in nature and  written by a non Christian Jew by the name of Norman Greenbaum in an era of peace and love and drugs . Covered many, many times. Enjoy it:
