Be Best Day in the United States 2021
Be Best Day was an initiative of First Lady Melania Trump during the Trump Administration to promote public awareness focusing on youth well being and advocating against cyberbullying and drug use. The drug focus was that of opioids which were widespread prior to the crackdown on physicians who were over prescribing them.

First Lady Melania Trumps Be Best Initiative

Mrs Trump decided the name of the inititative should go by the name "Be Best" and there was a proclamation signed in the Rose Garden of the White House on May 7, 2018. It is a broad scope dose of positivity for youth but had a slow start due to health problems suffered by the President.

Naturally the left had to attempt to sully this initiative with innuendo and false claims which were unsubstantiated in the usual and customary hate filled vitriol they spew as an activity of daily living along with CNN, their Counterfeit News Network.

Happy Be Best Day to you.

Lois ...
You can't spell love without LO
You can't spell is without IS ...


Lois Patrice Pewterschmidt Griffin    
Likely a remnant from my fantasy prone youth, I often indulge in adult animation to escape the harsh realities of living in a libtard dumb ass democrat infested country. It's amazing to think that in reality some of those characters I watch are individuals I would want to kill were they real life entities. Of all the many animated characters I've watched over the years I think I like Lois Griffin better than the rest by far.

Lois Patrice Pewterschmidt Griffin is the cartoon wife of Peter Griffin and mother of Meg, Chris and Stewie Griffin. Lois lives at 31 Spooner Street with her family and Brian, their anthropomorphic dog who wants to fornicate with her in the worse kind of way. I've always had an issue with this type of interspecies anthropomorphic schtick ... but that's another story. Lois is currently a full time mom who keeps house and teaches piano as a sideline.

She was brought up in a wealthy family with her sister, Carol. They also have an older brother, Patrick, who ended up in a mental asylum after becoming a serial killer.

Lois met Peter when he was a fat towel boy working at her great aunt Marguerite's country club in Newport, Rhode Island.

Her father, Carter Pewterschmidt, is extremely rich from many business concerns and cannot stand Peter making rude comments at each opportunity. It is likely due to the fact that she is unashamedly intimate with this big fat blivet he cannot stand.

Her mother, Barbara 'Babs' Hebrewberg Pewterschmidt maintains an uppity facade for the benefit of her husband, but is actually a down to earth, pleasant, and intelligent woman of culture who doesn't wear her heart upon her sleeve.

Some of Lois' proclivities and sexual innuendo are rather unabashed and positively shocking in nature as evidenced by many of her public revelations. She also has quite the dark side to her personality which surfaces intermittently. Peter seems to unintentionally do his absolute best to be a thorn in her side pissing her off at each and every opportunity.

I like Lois because she is a taut comely New England yankee gal who likes fat guys.

I know other women who don't particularly like fat guys per se but do like me — even though I am fat — because of who I am, how I comport myself, my attention to matters of personal upkeep, how I relate to them, and what I can do in multiple spheres of existence.
Lois may be a cartoon, but she is also a fat guy purist and being who I am I've always found that appealing.

Pravda began publication in 1912
One of several Pravda masthead variants

The so-called voice of the soviet communist party was a newspaper called "Pravda" (Truth) when it should have been called "Prest" (Spin) began publication on this day in 1912.

Persons in the US like Condi Rice who are fluent in Russian used to read the paper each morning to gain insight into what was allegedly going on in the Soviet Union.

Probably just another group of we 'crazy crackers' for her to monitor for the globalist traitor Bush liar control freak administrations.

Anyway, the bottom line is this was a state run purveyor of falsehood much like the mainstream media in the United States is today.

Pravda was sold by Boris Yeltsin to a Greek family business entity in 1996 and there has been some recurring controversy regarding use of the Pravda name regardless of the crock of lies they used to publish on a daily basis.

The Pravda newspaper these days is held by Communist Party of the Russian Federation. The online Pravda.ru is privately held and has international editions published in Russian, English, French and Portuguese.

The shitbird United States democratic party which is an arm of communism may well be reading this falsely prophetic drivel to get ideas regarding taking over the world for personal gain as they continuously endeavor to accomplish.

Boo Pravda. Boo Communists. Boo Democrat libtard turds who should be sent to the gulag.

Fiber and Me
All Bran Buds box    
    digestive system

Having just reached the big six five ...

yeah, I'm really old ...

I have grown to appreciate the dietary fiber I choke down frequently during the week.

Even though I detest eating bran I feel it is a concentrated dose of just what is required to push that which nourishes me right on down the tube and out — if you will.

Despite the kinjite (forbidden subjects) 禁手 of certain human functions here in the United States I'm one of those to push that envelope and offend your ass at the drop of a hat.

Trust me.

So when you are regular you are better suited for each and every task set before you.

I am one to dose psyllium powder every day. I try to do two glasses. I was doing four daily but found that to be quite a bit much. However, the activity is far less than that of the bran.

Yes, the great massive poop flows from my henious anus because of the bran component in my diet.

Yes, I have no qualms with discussing such personal topics.

Yes, I believe you should be able to both give and take a joke.

Don't judge me.

Madeleine McCann disappeared Portugal in 2007
    Madeleine McCann
I remember the Madeleine McCann disappearance. For a period of time it was all over the news all the time. I recall the disdain I had for her parents. I felt they had shirked their responsibility to their children by not providing adequate childcare while they were carousing having dinner and what have you ...

I recall how they were these miscreant media darlings and that they had received unwarranted accusations which did not stand the test of time. Still, I am left feeling that they did not provide that which was necessary for the welfare of their children.

A young child named Madeleine Beth McCann who was born May 12, 2003 disappeared May 3rd 2007 from her bed in a vacation apartment at a resort in the town of Praia da Luz, Portugal.

She was vacationing with her parents and allegedly noticed missing at 10:00 on a periodic check by the parents who were said to be dining 180 feet away.

The investigation of this disappearance became a protracted affair in the media and all they did was make matters worse without anything contributory coming from their coverage.

Bottom line here is this is the type of thing bound to happen when you are a slack parent and leave your children to fend for themselves while you go stuff your stupid face.

You can never tell who is watching either near or afar or just what manner of criminal intent may be afoot.

The McCann parents should have both been sterilized as the result of this hideous affair.

The press and the twitter idiots too should have suffered severe consequences but did not for their parts in reeking havoc by interference and obscuring the facts with their baseless innuendo.

However, there is no excuse for the poor parenting exhibited by the folks of Madeleine McCann who should have provided a sitter with the wherewithall to stop a kidnapping dead in it's tracks.

Osama bin Laden Killed in Pakistan in 2011
Osama bin Laden    
I recall the day in 2011 I heard that Osama bin Laden born Osama bin Mohammed bin Awad bin Ladin, 1st General Emir of al-Qaeda, had been killed by SEAL Team Six in Abbottabad, Pakistan.

It was rather anticlimactic for me personally given the damage he had already done.

Also, those circumstances seemed to lend themselves to capture from the description of the operation and I was curious as to why they could not have taken him alive.

I recall the testy Pakistani government having chastising words for the alleged invasion of their sovereign territory and indeed this sheds light on just who your friends are internationally.

He is said to be the founder of the pan-Islamic militant organization named al-Qaeda.

In retrospect, the manner of this incident has become less and less significant in my mind and I surely believe he got precisely what he had coming.

He was the suspected mastermind behind the September 11 attacks and said to be the FBI's most wanted man ...

But nowadays the department of justice and FBI themselves are equally criminal.

I continue to rue the escaped criminals such as the brigands Obama, the traitors Bush, and the riff raff of the deep state such as Biden, Harris, Pelosi, Schumer, Schiff, Nadler, Durbin, the squad, and in particular the murderous shadow government who brag about their wish to kill the taxpayer.

As Osama bin Laden could have been they too should be shoved in holes in the dirt never to see the light of day again. It is said that bin Laden was buried at sea. I think they maintain his corpse in a jar of alcohol somewhere as a gruesome trophy.

The repeated failures of the character of the US government certainly leaves little impetus to believe anything the they claim anymore.

International Sunflower Guerrilla Gardening Day 2021
    Sunflowers
I've never been a gardner. My dad was a great prolific gardener with vegetables, and plants, and trees growing all around his place in Salley, SC.

My comparatively meager attempts were always fraught with failure.

Sometimes people like to engage in neighborhood beautification projects of their own design.

These individuals have become known as Guerrilla Gardeners and I suppose there are far worse ways to engage in unauhorized behaviors.

Today is the International Sunflower Guerrilla Gardening Day.

It happens each May first and is an annual international event when guerrilla gardeners plant sunflowers in their neighborhoods in those public places they feel may be neglected.

It has been going on since 2007 and was the idea of guerrilla gardeners in Brussels.

It has been championed by other such guerrilla gardeners around the world with growth in participation each year.

The temperate requirements of the sunflower has not dissuaded the planting of other flowers and such which tolerate places with more of a temperature shift this time of year.

Honesty Day 2021
Biden and Harris do not represent me    
Yet another Honesty Day is upon us. Celebrated each April 30th here in the United States the day is intended to encourage honesty and straightforward communication in politics, relationships, consumer relations and historical education.

Once upon a time I viewed all of this as possible. Now, with the liars Biden and Harris in the white house and the libtards running the show I no longer feel that honesty exists in the United States mostly due to the narrative spewing no facts or news providing main stream media.

One of those correlatives to which the day corresponds is the First inauguration of George Washington on April 30, 1789.

I'm glad that the founding fathers haven't seen the hot mess of deceit and immorality into which our political system has devolved.

The justice department is corrupt. The FBI is corrupt. The Supreme court is corrupt. Nobody wants to do their job. They all want to further their own political agendas.

Boo democrats. Boo Biden. Boo Harris. Boo justice department. Boo FBI. Boo Supreme court. I loathe the politicized nature of what were supposed to be apolitical adjudication and enforcement entities and anxiously await the eventual purge of these blights upon the Republic.

The stupidity of the electorate is at once tragic and astounding.

Feets
    Mrs Goodfoot
Tomorrow at 11:30 am I go to Mrs Goodfoot for a pedicure.

When you are a person with adult onset diabetes good foot care becomes more important.

The enclosure of the foot in hard shoes for the bulk of the day creates friction events and such providing opportunities for injury and fungal infestations.

The ladies at Mrs Goodfoot have whipped my feet into the best shape they've ever been in.

I never thought I could remove my shoes unashamed as I can right now.

It's amazing.

Dark Site of the Moon Number 1 on Billboard in 1973
Pink Floyd Dark Side of the Moon album cover



    
Back when I was a sprout just graduating from high school thinking I was a man, the album Dark Side of the Moon was on the air waves in pre release.

    Telefunken Stereo
Now, I was not a fan of rock, alternative or otherwise at that time having been cultivated on the AM crap and recently graduated to the FM 'no static at all' world with the presence of daddy's excellent Telefunken stereo he brought back with him from a Med cruise on the Enterprise.

I tell you, I did not have any inkling as to the sound of quality before that time and I was a FM radio afficinado from then on.

It was a wonderful time musically in my life.

Anyway, the album by Pink Floyd is called "The Dark Side of the Moon" and I always dropped the 'The' for some reason. Despite this it was the origin of several of my most favorite musical pieces from that era, in particular 'Us and Them' which likely stemmed from my confrontational existence as the fat new kid with acne. Somehow navy parents fail to recognize that navy brats persecute and torture each other for any passing reason and it turns you hostile for the remainder of your life.

Such it was and is with me ... but yet again I digress.

The album was recorded at Abbey Road Studios and went to number one on the Billboard charts on this day in 1973. I would graduate high school a scant 33 days later.

The Dark Side of the Moon by Pink Floyd enjoyed a record-breaking 741-week chart run at a time when I followed Billboard, Casey Kasem, and the whole top 40 bullcrap popular to that era in my life.

Critically acclaimed, the album was one I never tired of hearing and to this day I maintain several copies of it; some audio some audiovisual. Declared "culturally, historically, or aesthetically significant by the Library of Congress it appears in the United States National Recording Registry.

Suffice it to say that if I had a theme song it would likely come from that album. It has stood the test of a long time during my life.

Tomb of Herod the Great discovered
massacre of the innocents ordered by herod the great    
Since I was a child I would become immersed in Bible stories. The special time which Christmas brought into my life each year lent itself to those stories surrounding the birth of Christ and how Joseph and Mary's flight to Egypt to escape the massacre of the innocents imposed by Herod 'the Great' was thwarted while so many first born children were murdered.

Over the years I have viewed many examples of fine art depicting this event and the sadness they invoke remain to this day.

I have a problem with calling anyone who would murder children 'the great' for any reason. There are quite a few who disagree with me on Herod's place in history and attribute his other accomplishments to that sobriquet. Be all of this as it may my picture of Herod the Great is somewhat less lofty than some others whom I have encountered in my various interactions.

    Tomb of Herod the Great
On this day in 2007, archaeologists in Israel discovered the tomb of Herod the Great in an area south of Jerusalem.

Herod I aka Herod the Great, was a Roman client king of Judea, referred to as the Herodian kingdom.

He lived circa 72 – 4 or 1 BCE and he is known for his building projects such as the renovation of the seond temple in Jerusalem, northern expansion of the Temple Mount, the Tomb of the Patriarchs in Hebron, construction of the port at Caesarea Maritima and the fortress at Masada and Herodium.

He is is described in the works of Josephus as a tyrant and he appears in the Christian Gospel of Matthew as the Judean ruler who ordered the massacre of the innocents around the birth of Christ. When he died his kingdom was divided among his sons and sister.

The location of Herod's tomb is documented by Josephus but the exact location was determined by an Israeli team of archaeologists from Hebrew University. The discovery has been contested as "too modest" to be that of Herod the Great and the scholars at Hebrew University stood by the earlier claims of identification and discovery.

Parental Alienation Awareness Day 2021

The topic of parental alienation is one of those vacuous concepts that escapes a true wherefore or why in the course of related lives that part ways.

I once felt that I was estranged from my father. You can be all tough and morally superior in your own mind and not realize that there are two ends of a relationship — family or not and that both sides deserve to be heard.

So while dad was a tough disciplinarian and tended to bring his Navy home with him, I felt that he loved me despite all my faults nonetheless. In the end all this parental alienation of mine did was make me cry for 20 years after I lost him to the consequences of tobacco. I still grieve his passing.
 

    Mommie Dearest study

The distance that I placed between us didn't quell my grief when standing there unable to help him in his final moments.

So though we had no real family separation nor attorneys nor judges nor psychologists in the mix we were a mess of our own design and for that mess I took full responsibility.

In retrospect had our roles been reversed I probably would have been far worse than I ever imagined he was given my distinctly Type A personality traits and status as a "late bloomer".

Daddy was an excellent provider and all he got from me was a steady stream disappointment and episodes of failure ...

I was just glad to somewhat redeem myself in his eyes by teaching college for 20 years. In light of all my bellyaching at this juncture I'm glad I did it for myself because it gave me a retirement edge I would not be enjoying otherwise.

One Sarvy Emo (what an appropriate last name, snapperhead) who was a leftist libtard activist from Canada proposed that March 28th be proclaimed Parental Alienation Awareness Day. Instead of some assertive level headed individual planting their foot up his whiny ass the day seems to have taken; only the international awareness campaign is now held on April 25th.

Though I am sure that there is parental alienation and that some of these instances are indeed justified — the concept simply never should have been applied by me to my father as it was in error.

World Day for Laboratory Animals 2021
white rat    
Laboratory animals existing as experimental specimens many times lead a perilous existence.

Scientists it seems have no qualms at sacrificing a lab rat at the drop of a hat.

Though the defense of laboratory animals in science is far reaching and said to be utterly essential to progress and discovery those final death throes of the research subject du jour remains; bouncing around in my thoughts.

I've often pondered what the little critter thinks just before it's delivered to God at the hands of someone bent on discovery.

I've also wondered if scientific testing using reagents and modalities like chromatography or computed tomography or even magnetic resonance imaging — something non lethal to the test subject might be equally effective in the pursuit of science.

Today we have another World Day For Animals In Laboratories aka World Lab Animal Day.

It comes down each April 24th with that week also being called "World Week for Animals In Laboratories".

It is described as an "international day of commemoration" by the National Anti-Vivisection Society.

While I personally find the entire notion of vivisection is abhorrent ... it's use on everything we want to "study" is pretty much a given.

I recall the scene from the John Carpenter's 1984 film Starman the Jeff Bridges ETE character is supposed to be brought to an examination room with leather straps designed to hold him down while he is dissected.

It makes me wonder just how advanced a science we are and if that monster called the government might like to strap selected individuals down and cut them up while still alive just to stay in practice.

So think about the plight of that poor lab rat and the ultimate destination so many of them see at the end of their experimental projects conducted by the advanced scientific humans holding them hostage.

While I am all for biomedical research I simply feel that the methods should evolve over time with the discoveries.

International Pixel-Stained Technopeasant Day 2021
    Jo Walton

It is my personal belief that one should be adequately compensated for efforts delivered to another.

I suppose the world of writers has a gratis component mixed in it's capitalism and there are some writers who are more capitalist and less in favor of work provided on a gratis basis.

April 23rd brings us yet another International Pixel-Stained Technopeasant Day.

Meant to commemorate author Jo Walton's response to remarks made by Howard Hendrix stating that he was opposed SCIFI and fantasy writers posting their work on the internet for free.

The purpose of the day, according to Walton, was to encourage writers to post "professional quality" work on the internet free of charge.

The name of the day is derived from the assertion by Hendrix that the "webscabs" are changing the noble calling of writer into an existence of Pixel-stained Technopeasant Wretches.

There have been many contributions to this day by notable writers of the genres.

Happy International Pixel-Stained Technopeasant Day to you, wretches.
