What’s a Billion Anyway?

Maldives: Going, going, gone in 46 days, according to the UN.

See, even these guys are getting out of “Dodge”

Trump sentenced to death by North Korea……..Trump is shaking in his boots over this one. Perhaps this really is a new self defence move he is practicing:

Eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee-yahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh. Take that!

Another dire prediction comes out of Business Insider. We’re Fooked as a planet by…………you guessed it……………………..100 years from, now. So let’s start donating gazillion dollars to third world dictators run by the UN’s climate fund. Yup, even these guys are excited about it. Or are they just excited about their new washroom logo. Hey I have to take a “dump.” “Which way to the wo-or – mans washroom. I’ll keep the lid down after I go. I promise.” eeee gads.

Stick to business guys and stop trying to save the planet one stool at a time.

There is a God after all.

Robert Mugabe, 93, and the UN’s latest goodwill ambassador is apparently under house arrest in what appears to be a coup of some sorts in Mugabe’s Zimbabwe, His wife was seen fleeing to Namibia. “No story here” she touted. “Just going on a shopping spree. Tell my babe-we, my Muga-babe that I’ll be home for dinner. Now how many Ak 47’s did he want anyway?”

Soldiers take over ZBC – Zimbabwe’s state broadcaster. We here in Canada should be so lucky! Take note CBC!

Eatery in Chicago protested by cultural miss-appropriationists because it is not Mexican enough. No the owners are of Korean and Filipino descent, providing affordable meals starting at 7 bucks. Not good enough these SJWs commented. We want Mexican, Tacos, Nachos, Burritos. Black Olives Matter you know. Besides, they don’t provide free Keopectate to consumers after a meal, like the Mexican restaurants do.

“Can I have the Burrito Combo. You know a burrito and a Molotov Cocktail?” Someone SJW was heard to order. A dangerous combination!

Venezuela economic failure and humanitarian crisis. This is where the NDP’s Leap Manifesto and other radical left-wing policies want to take us:

All in their delusional effort to save the planet from ourselves. Wow!

It appears Canada’s finance minister – More-Dough – gets teary eyed while watching the  Lindsay Lohan “Parent Trap” movie with his family. I had only one word to say when I heard that one……………….”We’re doomed.” Oops that’s two words, but who says I am wrong here with the new math. See Monday’s post. Perhaps 1 + 1 is 11!

Oh, this is a good one: Typical Liberal financial smoke and mirrors:

Result Anticipated: Balance the budget over the long-term and continue to reduce the debt-to-GDP ratio. Italics are mine:
As noted in the 2017 Fall Economic Statement, the fiscal framework does not forecast a balanced budget in 2019/20. Important fiscal investments were made to kick-start the economy, support the middle class and address the long-term challenges that were limiting Canada’s potential – tax, tax, tax. more-dough for those Liberal Twins More-dough and True-dough. Especially True dough’s home cabinet drawers.

Canada is now seeing the strongest economic growth in the G7 and increased consumer and business confidence. Yeah, Italy is a good role model. But mommy my 6 other friends at school have all jumped off the financial cliff, so why can’t I? As a result, the current fiscal track shows steady improvements in the Government’s budgetary position along with a continued decline in the federal debt-to-GDP ratio. But it’s still debt you morons………..The Government will maintain this downward deficit and debt ratio track – preserving Canada’s low-debt advantage for current and future generations. Oh you mean Generation Screwed!……………………………Geesh!

That’s just the Feds. Now this coming from a province near you:

The official balance sheets of provinces across the country mask billions of dollars in debt related to a series of megaproject follies being pursued by provincial governments and government-owned power utilities. While their debt doesn’t officially appear on provincial balance sheets, taxpayers will be left footing the bill when the electricity rates needed to pay them off become so economically crippling and politically unpalatable that they will require a bailout.

The province(s) will hide that debt from its own balance sheet through a series of accounting and regulatory maneuvers.

It’s called the “Smoke and Mirrors” economic policy. That Keynesian shyte didn’t work so we have all decided to adopt the Venezuela model” one financial minister was heard to say.

Do you know what one billion is?

  • A billion seconds ago it was 1959;
  • A billion minutes ago Jesus was alive;
  • A billion hours ago our ancestors were living in the Stone Age;
  • A billion dollars ago was only 8 hours and 20 minutes, at the rate our governments spends it.

Now think about our debt to GDP ratio. That would probably take us back to the “Big Bang.” You know that shower of celestial natural gas shyte that exploded way back when and started all of this current shower of shyte that we are experiencing.

Canada has already given away about $3 Billion dollars to the UN’s climate change green fun…er fund. That equates to Jesus and two of his brothers or sisters.

Man, my head hurts

Show me the money (Zero Hedge)

30 million Americans who woke perfectly healthy yesterday morning are now suddenly in need of expensive hypertension treatments after the American Heart Association and the American College of Cardiology decided to lower the definition of “high blood pressure” to 130/80 from the previous trigger of 140/90.  According to Reuters, the change means that nearly 50% of American adults, or roughly 100 million people, now suffer from high blood pressure.

Colonoscopies are next!

 

Someone asked me once how can I come up with stuff everyday – well Monday to Friday anyway. This being the human condition it is very EASY. Daily news is the gift to me that just keeps on giving.

Don’t worry, be happy.

Lest We Forget: Dunkirk, Battle of Britain, Blitz

Image result for pics of poppiesLest We Forget………………………………………………………Never

Image result for pics of dunkirkThe Battle of Dunkirk was a military operation that took place in Dunkirk (Dunkerque), France, during the Second World War. The battle was fought between the Allies and Nazi Germany. As part of the Battle of France on the Western Front, the Battle of Dunkirk was the defence and evacuation to Britain of British and other Allied forces in Europe from 26 May to 4 June 1940. See latest movie….excellent.

The Blitz was a German bombing offensive against Britain in 1940 and 1941, during the Second World War. The term was first used by the British press as an abbreviation of Blitzkrieg (lightning war). The Germans conducted mass air attacks against industrial targets, towns and cities, beginning with raids on London towards the end of the Battle of Britain in 1940, a battle for daylight air superiority between the Luftwaffe and the Royal Air Force over the United Kingdom. By September 1940, the Luftwaffe had failed and the German air fleets (Luftflotten) were ordered to attack London, to draw RAF Fighter Command into a battle of annihilation.[4][5] Adolf Hitler and Reichsmarschall Hermann Göring, commander-in-chief of the Luftwaffe, ordered the new policy on 6 September 1940. From 7 September 1940, London was systematically bombed by the Luftwaffe for 56 out of the following 57 days and nights.[6] Most notable was a large daylight attack against London on 15 September.

Battle of Britain

The Battle of Britain (German: Luftschlacht um England, literally “the air battle for England”) was a military campaign of the Second World War, in which the Royal Air Force (RAF) defended the United Kingdom (UK) against large-scale attacks by the German Air Force (Luftwaffe). It has been described as the first major military campaign fought entirely by air forces.[16]

The British officially recognise the battle’s duration as being from 10 July until 31 October 1940, which overlaps the period of large-scale night attacks known as the Blitz, that lasted from 7 September 1940 to 11 May 1941.[17] German historians do not accept this subdivision and regard the battle as a single campaign lasting from July 1940 to June 1941, including the Blitz.

Lest We Forget: SE Asia 1941 / 42

South East Asia

The South-East Asian Theatre of World War II was the name given to the campaigns of the Pacific War in Burma, Ceylon, India, Thailand, Philippines, Indochina, Malaya and Singapore. Objectives for conquering these countries included the seizure of natural resources such as rubber and petroleum from European colonies in the region. Conflict in this theatre began when the Empire of Japan invaded French Indochina in September 1940 and rose to a new level following the Raid on Pearl Harbor, and simultaneous attacks on Hong Kong, the Philippines, Thailand, Singapore and Malaya on 7/8 December 1941. The main landing at Singora (now Songkhla) on the east side of the Isthmus of Kra preceded the bombing of Pearl Harbor by several hours. Action in the theatre officially ended on 9 September 1945.

Lost at Sea

Maldives? Forget about it, them, those islands and islets. They’re toast.

Just received this from a friend of mine in Ottawa:

http://prospect.emmatoro.com

It’s about a pill that will change everything. Stephen Hawkings says so. So what will happen if I take this?” someone said. “Well, if you follow the regimen then you too can look just like Stephen Hawkings.”

A famous TV personality was heard to say: “Take this pill for 14 days and you too can become a homosexual.” Even Holly’s Woody in the Morning People are in one this brain enhancing phenom. “Hey look what its done to old Weinstein.”

One review written: “We are very grateful to have this now,. I believe this breakthrough will take us to the next level in our evil-utionary conundrum.” Oh you mean like this:

And after taking this pill for over a month the following side effects were examined. I mean after all this pill will allow us to use total brain power and not just the paltry 10% that we are viewed to be using now:

All you millennials? Get this pill now and take it……..pah-leeze.

No, but this guy sure is!

Another one bites the dust. Soon, there will be no decent ones left:

Fats! R.I.P

 

Instead of flogging stuff like the brain teasing pill above there is another get rich scheme that Canadians should think about. Go to Syria or some other tin pot shit hole country, stay for a few months, return home, say you were tortured, take the Canadian govt to court and viola: ten million bucks coming your way. Only in Canada you say……………..shitty! Gawd! I can’t believe this country of ours with our leaderless leaders. Imagine these guys being in charge during the First or Second World War. We’d all be speaking Japanese and wearing Lederhosen!

Hey Trudeau, how about the families of the two Canadians murdered by Philippine terrorists? Or Khadr’s victims: the Sheer family? Don’t they deserve $10M as well?

 

 

Two new “Darwin Award” Candidates (Italics mine)

A planned voyage from Hawaii to Tahiti aboard a small sailboat didn’t start off well for two Honolulu women. One of their cellphones washed overboard and sank into the deep blue water on their first day at sea. Cellphones in the middle of the Pacific Ocean. Are you gals daft?

The women, architect Jennifer Appel and her friend Tasha Fuiava, both of Honolulu, set sail on May 3, but lost their engine in bad weather four weeks later. They believed they could still reach Tahiti using their sails. Yes that’s what sailboats are for ladies – sailing – at about 5 or 6 knots per hour if you’re lucky! BTW, do not give up your days jobs.

What was meant to be a month-long trip stretched into 176 days, and took them roughly 8,000 kilometres off course. Oh you mean they ended up near the Mariana Archipelago?

Take a look at this chart. A chart is like a map at sea ladies. Marianas is about 1200 nm south of Japan. Hawaii is about centre right and Tahiti is in the South Central Pacific.

I mean c’mon now. Heading west when you should have been heading south. Didn’t the sun sets give you a clue? Being almost dead ahead of your track instead of being off your starboard side. Or the sun rise. Ever heard of a sextant? Celestial Navigation? Dead Reckoning. GPS perhaps? I do hope you don’t design buildings or houses like you handle seamanship. Or perhaps this is one of your designs – for our Canadian Prime Minister:

“Whatever I do I just keep getting disorientated.” The architect was heard to say.

Have a great weekend.
