Black Day in July

Let’s see how the beautiful game is doing today:

I told ya that there is more going on in the stands than on the pitch:

‘Get knocked up by FIFA players, win $$$ and Whoppers’: Burger King shamed for offensive ad”

‘Get knocked up by FIFA players, win $$$ and Whoppers’: Burger King shamed for offensive ad

“Bobble heads,” one woman shrieked, then laughed when she saw what she was dealing with. They sure ain’t whoppers.

“Hey, put that Gulag on hold” Russia beats Egypt 3-1. Wow. Russia has scored 8 goals in two games: 5 against the Saudis and now 3 against Egypt. That is impressive for football. But what is even more shocking and perhaps less impressive is that this is the most goals scored in a World Cup by one team since 1974? Are you kidding me?

“And Sergio kicks the ball over to Dmitri”

June 19th: 10 goals scored by 6 teams!

June 20th: 3 goals scored by 6 teams. I mean Portugal has Renaldo but they only beat Morocco 1 to zip. C’mon guys.

Now let’s get back to that whopper! What do ya say?


From the “History” repeats itself file comes this:

Erdoğan Warns of “War between the Cross and the Crescent” following Austria’s Plan to Deport Imans

Hey, remember 1529? Does 1683 come to mind Erdogan? The Sultan arrived at Vienna on 27 September 1529. The Siege of Vienna begins. The sultan lost that battle and left with his head between his legs. Literally and figuratively.

But, hey let’s try again, again as in 1683: The Ottoman (Turkey) Empire’s Pasha and his/her or zey, zit or zat siege of Vienna.

The Pasha struck again with his transgendered army wearing their silk white dresses. The Pasha got pashed around, lost bigly to the cross and had his crescent Adam’s apple wrenched and removed permanently by strangulation. Dastardly.

So Erdogan thinks he should try again. Turkey!

See, this blog isn’t always a waste of reader’s time.


From Maggie’s Farm: Where “No Ending a Sentence With a Preposition’ rule comes from. Some guy named John Dryden, a literary tour de force back in the day. So what are we talking about here: “You talking to me. Are you talking to me?”  No, no, no Robert. Profound use of the English or American language talk perhaps but totally wrong according to Dryden. You should have said: “With whom are you talking? Huh, hey, you, to whom are you talkin.”

See the source image “Yeah” F*&K Trump!” Profound!

I know, I know, it lacks punch, profundity as only a Hollywood actor like De Nero can dish out at Award Shows. He should have said: “With whom are you talking? Me? Me? To whom are you talking? Me, to whom?” or is that to who? No idiot, who’s on first.

But can you imagine talking like Dryden suggests and using his preposition rule downtown in a city close to you. An inner city perhaps.

See the source image  “With whom are you talking?”        Which, naturally led to this:

See the source imageBlack day in July.

The beat goes on. 1967!

Song of the day:

“With whom do you riot Sir?” With whom do you talk? Me?

Have a nice day.

SJ……………………………………….Out

 

Tuesday Afternoon

Vezelay is coming soon. First to the Netherlands though to see family and friends:

See the source imageHey World Cup. More excitement:

First Day: 5 goals scored by one team. Not bad. Things look promising for exciting football.

Second Day: 8 goals scored among 6 teams for over 280 minutes of play. Things are going south;

Third Day: 8 goals scored among 8 teams for over 370 minutes of play. But Croatia and France account for 4 of those goals. Things are getting really exciting now;

Fourth Day: 4 goals scored among 6 teams. Some upsets though. 3 matches for over 270 minutes of play but only 4 goals. Wow:

Fifth Day: 7 goals among 6 teams, 3 matches for over 280 minutes of play. Manly;

Sixth Day: In progress.

So for over 5 days we have 32 goals scored among 28 teams. Just over 1 goal per team per 14 matches. Exciting stuff. Won’t lose any sleep over this one.

See, even this guy is excited. I told ya that more action is in the stands than on the pitch:

Shocked I tells ya, shocked. This gal just returned from the World Cup in a state of shock over all of the excitement. You can see it I’m her face:

Image may contain: one or more people and text

Take a good look at her sign. “I had to get home right away to protest?”

“What are you protesting,” a CNN reporter asked:

Her response: “You talking to me? Yeah you. Are you talkin to me?”

The look on her face says it all!


Religion of Peace!

Clashes in Kashmir after Eid prayers, one deadClashes in Kashmir after EID prayers. Their team failed to qualify for the World Cup! All hell broke loose. Hey can you say that?  Hell I mean.


FIFA states that Israel must compete in Europe not Middle East for World Cup qualifying, which is code for saying: “we don’t want you here.”

Meanwhile over in the Middle East, where many a World Cup participant hails from, comes these headlines:

Priest stabbed by Palestinians in Bethlehem. It would appear that the priest was rooting for the Saudis, a team that got butchered by the Russians, 5 to zip yer head off.

Another Saudi supporter, this time a woman, uses box cutters to stab two French people in France. She was yelling Allah Akbar while doing this nasty bit of business. When interrogated afterwards she told police that she was upset that France won their first match in the World Cup and her fav team, the Saudis, lost 5 to zip off their Russian heads.

Israel foils Hamas plot to bomb Jerusalem and Tel Aviv. This over the Saudis recent loss to the Russians at the World Cup. The Saudis lost 5 to zip off their Jewish Russian heads, don’t you know….wow.


Meanwhile back in Canadastan:

Why is it that when a Canadian Caucasian family starts a fire while camping it can be construed as a potential fire hazard and could cause this?:

See the source imageHang that Caucasian family

Yet when a First Nations family starts a fire while camping it is construed as a “Sacred Fire”. Perhaps, but it could still do this:

See the source image       “Yes, but it is still a sacred fire. To expunge the dark spirits of the land and bring new life, new birth.” Okay……………..Geesh.

“Sacre Bleu!”

“After all we, first nations people are nature’s caretakers. We harbour a great love for nature:”

Geesh

Have a great Tuesday…..Afternoon.

Song of the day…A Classic!

 

 

 

Right….On!

Seems that Saudi women are now allowed to drive but cannot change the way they dress. So, how would you like to see this behind the wheel of a car on the highway, coming straight at you or trying to pass:

See the source imageTesla is all in a tizzy over this one.

Of course we all know what had happened to their driverless car:

See the source image Don’t think I’ll ever drive in Riyad. I’ll stick to this, thank you very much.

See the source imageWhere everyday is “hump” day in Saudi Arabia.

Of course women in Saudi Arabia can now drive but they (thanks to RT):

  1. Must adhere to a strict dress code and wear an ankle-length garment called an abaya;
  2. Cannot associate with men to whom they are not related;
  3. If they want to leave the home, travel, work, rent an apartment, make a legal claim or access certain healthcare, they must be accompanied by, or have the permission from a wali – a male guardian who is usually their husband, father, brother, uncle or even son;
  4. Must seek permission from their guardians to marry or divorce. Women who want to marry a foreigner must obtain approval from the Ministry of Interior. They are not allowed to marry a non-Muslim;
  5. Are not allowed to have their own bank accounts or control their finances without permission from their guardian;
  6. The Saudi legal system says the testimony of a woman is only worth half that of a man;
  7. Daughters only receive half the inheritance that their brothers receive; and
  8. In cases of divorce, they are only allowed custody of their children until they reach the age of seven for boys, and nine for girls.

Hmmm? Maybe moving to Saudi Arabia wouldn’t be a bad idea after all. Hmmm? Just saying that’s all. So why are so called feminists here in the Western World so uptight about these woman’s rights anyway? THEY HAVE NO RIGHTS.


Arnold Schwarzenegger burns Trump’s plan with one brutal tweet about protecting the coal industry and his relentless criticism of everything Trump does. Of course this criticism is coming from a guy who states that he would strap every climate change denier to the tailpipe of his SUV to see how they like CO2?!?!?! Say what:

Arnold Schwarzenegger on global warming ‘deniers’: ‘Strap some conservative-thinking people to a tailpipe for an hour and then they will agree it’s a pollutant!’

Update: ‘Carbon dioxide, while a greenhouse gas, is not toxic and it is not noxious. It’s probably carbon monoxide that will be responsible for the [tailpipe] genocide’ that ole Arnie talks about.

Geeesh. Of course all of the green environ – mental whackos will believe Awnold and not some crazy Harvard physicist named Lubos Motl. Stick to acting Awnold. (to think that this guy was once the Governor of California. Then again…………………?

Arnold Schwarzenegger on global warming deniers: ‘Strap some conservative-thinking people to a tailpipe for an hour and then they will agree it’s a pollutant!’

On another note: Trump is hugely criticized for taking the US out of the Paris accord, yet the US has reduced greenhouse gas emissions more than any other country on the planet. UN response? They welcome North Korea and Nicaragua’s signing of the Paris accord. Ignore US emission reductions.

The UN’s logic? Take this guy at his word:

See the source image  or this guy: See the source image And that is why Canada should get out of the UN cartel……………………………NOW!

See the source imageUN’s Chinese point man on the ground!


In China janitors are now the new millionaires. This was just announced after “Mr Clean” was introduced to the Chinese economy!


Breaking news coming out of Toronto: A listing for a home in the Upper Annex of Toronto has some people scratching their heads over photos showing an exposed toilet and shower in the main-floor living room, right beside the fireplace.

The charming, semi-detached home — listed at $898,000 at 1231 Bathurst St., near Dupont St. — certainly has an unusual layout, and an unusual smell about it but real estate agents say that likely has a good explanation.

“$900,000 for a load of crap” one potential buyer remarked. “It’s a dump!”

“Shit happens” the realtor remarked.

The current real estate market in Toronto could see this potential deal go down the toilet…………………….groan.


Trudeau calls Trump’s tariffs insulting and unacceptable. Ooooo.

Both Trudeau and Foreign Minister Chrystia Freeland have called the imposition of the tariffs under American national security legislation “absurd.”  Oooooo!

When asked whether Trudeau will say that to Trump face-to-face, he nodded. “And I have”……Ooooooo

Of course when the issue of the huge Canadian subsidies of softwood lumber  and the supply management protectionism held by Canada, especially the Quebec dairy monopoly, there was dead silence within the ranks of the Canadian Nafta negotiating team:

Oooooo

vs the US Team:

One English born Canadian was heard to say: “Naf said, Ta!”


From the absurd file: I see the French are at it again: a Frenchman is swimming  “9,000km to raise awareness of ocean pollution”. they describe the pollution as being “Texas Sized.” Texans were not amused.

See the source imageSo let that French sunnamabitch try to come and swim over here. We’ll have a big surprise for him: French Fried Hali-butts: Note: The French swimmers is known as “Hal.”

I really think that when the Darwin awards were first initiated that the organizing committee had the French (France’s French) in mind:

That’s all she wrote today.

Song of the day:

Evolution

Very disappointed that my team – the Las Vegas Golden Knights – are down three games to one. Game 5 on Thursday. One can only hope and pray to the hockey gods for a win. Even Michelangelo agrees with me with this recently discovered work of art found in the Sistine arena, er chapel, in Italy.

And then God made man and he looked down and he was happy.

Except in Canada eh?See the source image                                        Darwin’s theory as being taught in Canadian schools. Hey, if Gore can change things so can I. (SJ)


Fantasy thought of the year:

AND THE LEAFS WIN THE STANLEY CUP!

That is about as dead as Darwin’s theory of evil-ution is in Canadian schools. “It is an evil thought” one Toronto fan was heard to say. “Darwin had it wrong all along”! “After the current age of “Homo Erections” surely we will have evolved into the Homo “Slap Shot!” ”


What else is going on. The sheer hypocrisy of BC Premier John Horgan, his puppet master Andrew Weaver and the ever so popular Justinian Turdope of the Kinder Morgan Pipeline fiasco. Typical BC political posturing and logic. Horgan to Alberta Premier Notley:  “We do not want your oil. But” – and in a way that only a politician can say and get away with – “We want your oil and if you don’t give it to us we will sue your asses off.”

And in keeping with our Darwin theme this was heard recently at a BC morning caucus meeting:

See the source image

Oops that’s 4. Perhaps Turdeau’s climate Tzar is in there somewhere.

BC and Canada’s economy is soon to be on life support.

See the source image Hey but we are saving the planet after all – from ourselves!…………………Geesh


And if you still believe that we or the UN is responsible for  Climate Change, or global warming or the evolutionary human progression of hockey players then have a look at this: (thanks to SDA)

The sound of settled science:
“Nobel Laureate DESTROY Global warming during EPIC Lecture. Gets a standing ovation”

So much going on today:

This just in: ATLANTIC CITY, N.J. — The Miss America Organization is dropping the swimsuit competition from its nationally televised broadcast, saying it will no longer judge contestants on their appearance. So they’re opting out for this:
See the source image       That’s the burqa swimsuit organizing committee in the background.
“We want to be all inclusive here” the “I – a – told –  you – so” remarked.

Does anyone see the irony here after the segment above:

Daughters born to Prince Harry and Meghan, Duchess of Sussex will not inherit their title, it has emerged.

The royal pair wed in May (18) following a three-month engagement and rumours have been rife that children won’t be too far behind. But the newlyweds have had to accept that any daughters born to them won’t inherit the dukedom, with the title instead falling to their firstborn son irrespective of age.

And the title will die out completely if the couple have only girls.

In keeping in tune with that bit of Darwinian fluff, the couple will soon move to Saudi Arabia. The only place on earth where girls can be girls.


That’s all for today.
