Got Hubby off to the airport. Also found another sax ensemble piece from another of my favorite classics – Dvorak’s “New World Symphony”.
This Japanese group is outstanding. I was watching a UT (gag me a little) sax ensemble do my fave “Jupiter,” and reading the comments, I agreed that saxophones could be surprisingly good at replacing brass and some strings.
Another commenter said that Adolph Sax was trying to create an instrument that could do just that – replace other instruments in an orchestra. Something about a French group of musicians or instrument makers squashed him, and that’s why you don’t see saxophones in orchestra pits.
They should. The mellow tones of the saxophone would blend well with the other instruments.

Here’s the large Japanese sax ensemble playing “Jupiter”. Outstanding.
When I think of the Japanese, I don’t immediately think saxophone, but there ya’ go.

And today’s “Return to Tradition” podcast reveals the real purpose behind the “Synod on Sin,” as Stine calls it, and rightfully so. “Heretic Biships Announce That the Church MUST Abandon Apostolic Tradition”.
The Four Marks of the Church are: One, Holy, Catholic, and Apostolic. The apostolic succession of priests from the original apostles is one of the defining elements of the Catholic faith. Along with that comes what we call the Deposit of Faith – those things that were taught by Jesus but weren’t written down. To abandon that mark is to basically create a new, different, schismatic religion.
Like they’re not doing that already.

Elections have consequences! Oh and I’ve not been much for reparations but I’ve decided that I want reparations from all the dumb Bastards that voted for the Doddering Old Fool in the White House.
Have you been to the Grocery Store lately?! What about your light/gas bill?And yes this is minor compared to the all mayhem in the world and our open border. You recon how may Jihadist have crossed over into the us in the last 3 years? ~SPITS~

1957 Rambler Rebel with a 327 v-8 fastest passenger production car in 1957. FWIW; The Fuelie Vette (283) was the only US production car that beat it. Is it just me or is that Rambler BUTT Ugly? 😉
-
SuperDave, it’s pretty ugly, alright… maybe after I get my eyes all the way open and some coffee in me, I’ll be more opinionated about just HOW ugly…
-
There never was a pretty Rambler.

Oh my – a lost load of watermelons on the SW freeway… sounds like something I’d expect out here in Monkey County – it wouldn’t be any fun out here either but at least it wouldn’t ruin a few thousand folks’ morning commute.

Good morning fellow couch dwellers, it is now 0812 on Tuesday, the 3rd day of the week.

Only in Alabama;
Rehobeth’s Erin Starling earns scholarship to join Montevallo archery team.
Erin Starling first picked up a bow-and-arrow as an 8-year-old at a church event and immediately had a passion for shooting bows.
Now 10 years later, that passion has led the Rehobeth High senior and Dothan Archery Club member to a college scholarship in the sport of archery at the University of Montevallo.
“It felt amazing,” Starling said Monday of signing with the Falcon program. “It is really an honor and I am really excited.”
Starling has an impressive resume in archery, including three state titles during the current season, and holds a No. 82 national ranking in the 15-18 age group. She won Scholastic 3-D indoor and outdoor state titles as well as the U.S. Archery state championship during this season.
She earned the state’s S3D Archery of the Year Award for the season. A year ago in 2022, she was the Archers Shooters Association Shooter of the Year and also the Bowhunters of Alabama Association Shooter of the Year.

Uh-oh.
Alabama Transgender Candidate Reveals How She Can Win in Republican State
Sylvia Swayne, the 26-year-old transgender Democrat running for the vacant role in Alabama’s House district 55, wants to prove to the rest of the country that there is more to the state—a key battleground in the Republicans’ culture war on trans rights—than its reputation would suggest.
Montgomery-born Swayne told Newsweek that politics is new territory for her, but is hoping to take the seat once occupied by Democrat Fred Plump after his resignation in May during his first year in office. She is a fresh face to Alabama’s politics—and yet she has already achieved something historic in the traditionally conservative state.

BELLE’S BOOGALOO ☙ Tuesday, October 24, 2023 ☙ C&C NEWS
Good morning, C&C family, it’s Tuesday! Your roundup today includes: deadly Superfog strikes New Orleans; Trump lawyers file solid motion to dismiss in his Election Interference case; Washington Post explains how it really got covid right even though it was wrong about everything, or something; more bad news about covid jabs and people’s hearts; SADS rapper; SADS airline pilot; SADS A-list actor; and discontent in the happiest place on earth.
News:
Skipping the fun snark about the “super fog” and moving on to Trump news:
Trump’s newest motion to dismiss the DC Election Integrity case was filed late last night, right before the midnight deadline…
This new motion joins the previous motion to dismiss the case. The earlier motion argued Trump’s presidential immunity covers official actions taken while he was in office. Last night’s new motion added three more arguments: First Amendment free speech, double jeopardy since Trump was already acquitted for the same conduct by the Senate during his second impeachment trial, and lack of fair notice that his complaining about democrat cheating would be considered criminal conduct.
I thought you’d enjoy, as I did, the way Trump’s lawyers began their new motion. Here’s my lightly-edited version (only edited for brevity):
The prosecution opens its indictment by stating that President Trump “had a right, like every American, to speak publicly about the election,” including his deeply held view that there had been fraud and other irregularities “during the election and that he had won.” These points are not in dispute. Nonetheless, in an astonishing display of doublethink, the prosecution simultaneously claims that President Trump—simply by speaking his mind and petitioning for a redress of grievances—also somehow conspired to “defraud the United States,” “oppress rights,” and “obstruct an official proceeding.” Attempting to explain this obvious contradiction, the prosecution argues that there was no “outcome-determinative fraud in the election” (whatever that means), and that President Trump supposedly knew this because some government officials “notified” him “that his claims were untrue.”
If there is any constant in our democratic system of governance, it is that the marketplace of ideas—not the mandates of government functionaries or partisan prosecutors—determines the scope of public debate. Countless millions believe, as President Trump consistently has and currently does, that fraud and irregularities pervaded the 2020 Presidential Election. As the indictment itself alleges, President Trump gave voice to these concerns and demanded that politicians in a position to restore integrity to our elections not just talk about the problem, but investigate and resolve it.
The first section begins with the First Amendment, and appropriately starts by citing the Supreme Court referencing George Orwell: “Our constitutional tradition stands against the idea that we need Oceania’s Ministry of Truth.” The 9-0 decision, which is significant far beyond Trump’s case, also explained, “The mere potential for the exercise of (a broad government censorial) power casts a chill, a chill the First Amendment cannot permit if free speech, thought, and discourse are likely to remain a foundation of our freedom.”
Indeed. They could have been arguing the Missouri v. Biden case. It’s a fascinating confluence of issues.
Despite the WaPo’s snide commentary, it’s a terrific motion, and in a fair court it should be an easy winner. Here’s the link to the whole thing, which I found very entertaining and think is quite accessible for non-lawyers. LINK: President Trump’s Motion To Dismiss The Indictment Based On Constitutional Grounds (31 pages).
The phrase “in a fair court” is the important part.

Next up: patting the back while eating crow.
Speaking of the Washington Post, the paper also ran an unintentionally hilarious pandemic performance review yesterday, or maybe it’s a limited hangout, or a partial sideways apology, or something, headlined “How We Got Covid’s Risk Right But the Response Wrong.”
See? They were right, even though they were wrong. More Orwellian double-think! It’s all so very, very nuanced.
The article author, Justin, tried to pass his ability to read charts into journalistic excellence, or some such argument.
Obviously feeling very generous, Justin credited himself for his 2020 estimate of a 1% covid fatality rate, since he didn’t fall for the obviously-wrong CDC and W.H.O. and their much higher 2-3% estimates. Of course, one percent is a chucklesome exaggeration all by itself, but the rest of the article swelled with even more belly laughs, like Justin’s claim that the CDC’s covid death estimates were “almost certainly undercounts, because in the early days the lack of testing meant many Covid-caused deaths were attributed to other maladies.”
Hahaha! I’ve personally reviewed hundreds of covid death certificates and coroner reports. My favorites are the covid gunshot wounds, covid tumbles off of roofs, and covid motorcycle accidents, but the great variety of covid nursing home trip-and-falls comes in at a close second.
Justin also tried to used Bill Gates as an epidemiologist [snuffle, snort!] and the salvific quality of lockdowns.
But anyway, after all that, Justin got down to brass tacks, the hideous point of the awful apology tour. After congratulating himself so many ways, and whole expressing great magnanimity and praiseworthy open-mindedness, Justin ultimately allowed that “the US did an awful job of balancing Covid’s risks with the costs of fighting the disease,” and even conceded that Sweden “ended up with one of the most successful and sustainable Covid management efforts among Western countries.”
Sweden was so much more right than all of the Western world, yet they get only a slight, sideways mention…/sigh

Childers finally catches up with me, re the heart cell study I referenced recently:
Epoch’s article reported on a peer reviewed German study, published on October 12th in the British Journal of Pharmacology titled, “Cardiac side effects of RNA-based SARS-CoV-2 vaccines: Hidden cardiotoxic effects of mRNA-1273 and BNT162b2 on ventricular myocyte function and structure.” (Unfortunately, it’s paywalled.)
The researchers tested the both mRNA jabs, Pfizer and Moderna, on rats. Kind of like doing an animal study. You know, an animal study like Pfizer and Moderna should have done but didn’t. They opted for the population-level study.
When considering these new results, remember that the CDC … does not understand the mechanism of injury.
The CDC is completely baffled. It’s still completely baffled.
If researchers actually identify an alleged mechanism of injury, their research then becomes testable and most uncomfortably risky, it becomes falsifiable. So it is significant and bold that these German researchers pointed out the mechanisms of how they say the mRNA jabs are injuring the heart.
First, the spike proteins showed up in the rats’ hearts within 48 hours. “…and I don’t need to tell you that the heart muscle is precisely one of the places you really don’t want spike proteins floating around without adult supervision.”
Next, the researchers discovered that the mRNA was distorting cardiac cells and making them act funny. And not the good kind of funny. The bad, not-actually-very-funny-at-all kind of funny.
Pfizer spikers made the heart cells “manically” operate, with unnaturally long & strong contractions. Moderna spikers, however, just made them a little schizoid, contracting in weird ways. If you go to the link, you should be able to see the videos of the heart cells doing their weird dances. It should freak you out, after it scares the poop out of you.
The authors explained that either disruption to RyR2 or increased PKA protein levels “are risk factors for sudden cardiac death, ventricular tachyarrhythmias, and contractile dysfunction,”…
Gee, ya’ think?
… Instead, the injuries look more like cardiomyopathy, where heart muscles suddenly become structurally and functionally abnormal — but without any underlying heart disease.
For the story, Epoch quoted cardiac expert and study-publishing giant Dr. Peter McCullough for the story. He agreed the newly-discovered effects on heart cell function suggest something other than garden-variety myocarditis is at work. “Myocarditis will present with a dilated heart and patients having trouble breathing and heart failure,” Dr. McCullough said. But “what we’re seeing with vaccines is not heart failure. It’s actually cardiac arrest, which is primarily an electrical problem,” he explained.
Well, that explains the “Suddenly and Unexpectedly” aspect of these mysterious deaths.
-
Speaking of “Suddenly & Unexpectedly,” there’s a new list. Among those incidents are the previously mentioned here item of the airplane pilot who tried to shut down engines mid-flight. Friends and neighbors are shocked and flummoxed, trying to make sense of this bizarre abdication of the pilot’s usual good sense and normal behavior.
Childers shares this headline:
No link to the study, but if the spikes wreak havoc elsewhere in the body, why is the brain immune? AFAIK, the virus can cross the blood-brain barrier, but I stand to be corrected.

#7 Shannon – I beg to differ… When my cousin got HIS Rambler, and I got to ride to school with him instead of my mother driving me, I thought that was the most gorgeous pea green car I’d ever seen 😉

I remember Mom having a green Rambler for a while. She could almost pack all of us inside of it.

Okay my day is now complete. Michael Berry was talking about famous peoples feet. Yes sir great radio right there. So who does these famous feet belong to? No cheating.

When I tried to open it in Youtube, I kept getting “you’re using an ad blocker so you can’t see the video” message, though I checked and there was no ad blocker running. Other YT videos play just fine.
I guess YT doesn’t like OMG.

Morning, chickadees! I’m ready for some more cool weather, preferably with rain.

#19 TT: The local gov’t officials in LaHaina are likely in on the land grab. That fire and the local response stinks bigly; almost like it was intentional to kill as many as possible and make it impossible for any of the residents to reclaim their property. Something tells me that this sort of thing to one degree or another happens in the isolated communities all over. Rampant. Corruption.

I’m going to attempt some treadmill time. My blood sugar was surprisingly low, given recent readings, even though I didn’t work out yesterday. I get that sometimes, but on a regular basis, the walking helps. I did cut waaaay back on the carbs yesterday, so I guess I need to keep doing that.
The knee feels better, but that’s a kinda low bar. I have the joint cream and I took the pain pill this morning, so….I shall endeavor. After that’s done, I may load Elsa with her next load, which is mostly beef and chicken stock. I may venture out for some shopping before the rain hits, which I think is tomorrow.
Hubby should be between St. Louis and the dealer about 40 miles away by now. He should be hitting the road home in the new (for him) truck in a few hours. He said the guy was shocked that he wanted to drive it back, but he – and a lot of others – don’t realize how much Hubby and I enjoy the drives between destinations. Since Hubby wanted to eyeball the truck before finalizing the purchase, it just made sense to drive it back and enjoy the scenery along the way. He doesn’t sleep well in a bed, so no motels along the way. He’ll find a quiet corner in a truck stop or rest stop and rest inside the vehicle.
Then the real work begins: transforming the new truck into his work truck. Then selling the old one.

Oh, and I cut some more basil for Fred to digest, too. Gotta load Fred up. Maybe next year I can get more herbs in the dirt. This has really been a …. challenging….year for gardening. Had to start late because of the back surgery, then couldn’t really do much strenuous stuff because of the back, and now the knee. And since I’m looking at having my mouth in pieces for the next few months, that’ll be an issue as well.
Like the Astros, I just have to hope for better outcomes next year.

I just got a call from our insurance agent about adding a new vehicle to our policy. I guess Hubby has accepted the truck and is driving it home now.
On the home front: a load of Hubby’s laundry in the machine,(including his towels from the bathroom upstairs, since he keeps forgetting to bring them down), a load in Elsa, a load in Fred…
I guess I’m really loaded today! ;D

BSue has started using CBD products for her aches and pains. Being the loving doting husband that I am I apply the creme to her aches and pains in her back and shoulders. It has been said you cannot get high from CBD cremes or oils. But danged if my hands don’t start craving Doritos and bean dip along with a Mountain Dew when I rub that stuff on her.

Nope not Richard Simmons. He is the lead singer of a band.

I done killed the blog

-
According to this news story, the Alaska Airlines pilot was on mushrooms when he tried to kill the plane’s engines, and all the riders with them.
-
Mark Tipton would be horrified by what y’all have done to this blog.

I think Mark would be happy that so many are still participating with his creation.
-
Texpat
No he wouldn’t. He’d sit back and pop another Lone Star crank up the tunes and rest confidently knowing the weirdos were where he could find them and not lurking around his home.

I like this image of Liv better.
Family values, doncha know.
-
Squawk
Maybe.
But I think you probably crossed the Hamousian line of no cat blogging with the kitten thing in #46.

Ron Paul is the latest name for Speaker.
Wow. That’ll be a hoot.

It seems that a lot of Trump’s inner circle are getting turned against him in court.
Not speculating on the whys and wherefores, just the outcomes. Will Trump survive the court case and still be able to be elected?

I haven’t been keeping up with this case in Georgia because, well, there is just too much else going on in the world and I never took it seriously.
I don’t understand it and it does not make any sense in a constitutional sense. I need to do more homework on it.
-
Since being a member of the House is not a prerequisite, I am considering going down to The Swamp and running for Speaker of the House.
I will only do it if Squawk agrees to be my campaign manager and bodyguard and Dr Phil Good will be my spokesman/communications director.
I will sacrifice it all for my country.
-
No he wouldn’t. He’d sit back and pop another Lone Star crank up the tunes and rest confidently knowing the weirdos were where he could find them and not lurking around his home.
Yup, I think Squawk hit the nail on the head.

About Squawk’s #18 and whose feet? Looking at those long skinny toes it would have to be female. BUT you say it’s a dude?! Oh and of course I have NO IDEA who Stephen Tyler is. 😉

Texpat

Whoohoo let’s do this. Wait. Do I get the couch in the office?
-
Well, if Trump is out, I wonder who’s gonna win?
If DeSantis can hang in there…
-
Since I really don’t like Trump’s name calling, it would give me some sense of satisfaction if “Ron DeSanctimonious” won.
-
Trump may run again but he will not win. He still has his faithful MAGA HAT Trumpkins but he does not have the other groups that helped him get as far as he did before. i do not think he has the message in hand that he had before. He is running on pure personality now and that can only go so far.
-
This morning I was going to suggest Texpat for Speaker.
But I’m worried about his temper and at his age he wouldn’t last long trying to beat the crap out of those elite, POS poseurs in the Capitol.

CBS, in its relentless attempt to salvage the reputation of our elite Federal law enforcement agency, has yet another FBI show which recently premiered.
The format is documentary-style, covering the most outrageous crimes of the recent past.
Tonight’s episode covered the details of the killing of and apprehension of the Boston Marathon perpetrators.
It was quite riveting. A story that I never before knew all of the details.

I don’t know if I’ve mentioned this, but Fr. Chris Alar, one of my favorite priests to listen to, did a retreat recently on Mary and the Blessed Mother’s relationship to the Eucharist. The Eucharist was displayed in a large monstrance.
I’ve described a monstrance before, but in case you forgot, a monstrance is a large, circular, gold holder with a clear glass center, in which a consecrated hose, aka “Eucharist,” is placed for adoration.
During the retreat, while the Eucharist was in the monstrance, an image of Mary appeared and pictures of the apparition were taken. In this video, Fr. Alar discusses this event.
There was no statue of Mary from which a reflection could be cast on the glass holder.
Father Alar also mentions Our Lady of Akita.
In San Francisco. We are told that the last battles will be against the family and marriage.

Here’s a photograph of the Marian appearance mentioned above.
