- Dick Van Dyke became a libtard
-
When I was a child Dick Van Dyke was a favorite actor. I watched the Dick Van Dyke show religiously and enjoyed the antics of Mary Poppins and other appearances set before me. Later in his old age a leftish libtard streak came forth and I have now lost all respect for him.
It is said that I should end using the term because it is "highly offensive". I say libards are highly offensive with their skewed attitudes and counterproductive efforts in and of themselves.
Richard Wayne Van Dyke was born December 13, 1925 at West Plains, Missouri. He was trained at Danville High School and became an actor, comedian, singer, dancer, writer and insufferable litard. He is a veteran of the US Air force.
Some of his public statements are infuriating and insulting. It is quite possible that he may have had some infarct as the result of passing age and does not realize what a toad he has become.
He stated publically that he would rather die that see another four years of President Trump.
Now I get a fair amount of grief over calling select members of the left "libtards" because they are "liberal retards" but indeed, I stand by this labeling of the morons populating our country. I just never thought I'd ever be forced to include Dick Van Dyke in their stupid numbers ...
I simply cannot help it should the moniker offend some of my more hoity toity cohorts on the right.
In other words, kiss my ENTIRE ass.
His attitude toward Mr Trump is very unpatriotic and projects an unawareness of who has been good for the country while the democrats absolutely were not.
Today is his birthday. He is 99 and therefore pushing a hundred, an unseemly and ignorant asshole, and unaware of the politics of our nation.
Die libtard die.

- National Poinsettia Day 2024
-
One of those decorations I look forward to during the Christmas holidays is the beautiful poinsettia plant. These come in a variety of colors and shades and verigation combinations.
They make me think of an old acquaintance, one Ms Jeanette Bodie whom I haven't seen in some 40 years. Her family lived in Monetta and was engaged in a floral business and as such she was a horticultural wonderkind. My mother was a big fan of her mother, Rheunette H Bodie and her work back in the day.
Their motto was "Say it with flowers. Say it with Ours."
Fittingly enough today is National Poinsettia Day which happens each December 12. I view it's proximity to Christmas Day as totally appropriate. Congress created this national day in 2002 in honor of Paul Ecke Jr., and the work that he did developing the poinsettia industry through marketing and grafting. The plant is actually named for Joel Roberts Poinsett a US minister to Mexico who introduced the plant to the United States in the 1820s. This tribute to his foresight is a big part of Christmas cheer in my life.
Nothing says Christmastime louder to me than a bunch of poinsettias around the house.

- International Mountain Day 2024
-
Early in my teaching career I became enamoured with the mountains of the blue ridge chain up around the Pigsah Range, Asheville, NC and points beyond.
I made it a point to travel there regularly and I loved to get high up in places like the watershed and craggy gardens and call people on my cell phone.
It was thrilling for me personally and I never forgot the feeling of being high above my cohorts in all my self-ascribed glory.
Mountains are a geological feature which occur when the layers of the earth engage in upheval and they provided a respite from those concrete jungles I always occupied during that time. Nowadays I am content to sit on my acre in the city limits and just fritter away. I am someone who has always needed something to do but it simply hasn't been happening of late.
Maybe tomorrow.
December 11 brings us International Mountain Day.
It is a celebration of the geology of the earth and those blessings it bestows upon those willing to take the trip to where they are. That is me and indeed, I shall return — someday. Happy International Mountain Day to you !

- Woke Pope 2024
-
The pervert toad LGBT Activist Pope Francis has declared a "Special Jubilee for LGBTQ+ Community".
This heretic has taken it upon himself to discard canon and go off on a carnal tangent for all to unholy see.
The so-called "special jubilee pilgrimage for gays and all LGBTQ+ people" needs to be squashed by the church in favor of what is actually in the Bible.
It is said that the Catholic Church considers homosexual acts to be "intrinsically disordered".
The Pope has this need to disorder the church.
He is the actual disordered one.
Catholic homosexuals be damned the Pope needs to be taken out as the heretic he is.
On September 5, Catholic members of the LGBTQI+ community will hold a vigil service hosted by the Jesuit Church of the Gesù who are just another group of heretics infiltrating the Catholic church.
You cannot reconcile “homosexuality and faith" because it is beyond the purview of mankind.
Queer Catholic priest Father David Esposito should also burn with the rest of these heretics.
Boo perverts.

- National Blue Collar Day 2024
-
When I was young I saw my career ambitions as strictly blue collar.
Later in my career things got all lofty and I pursued that which was beyond my grasp given my submediocre public school education and the fact that none of it ever really mattered anyway once I became and adult and surpassed the dull and commonplace skill sets around me.
So when I embarked on 'plan b' I was sure to concentrate on the skills and subject matter expertise in an effort to see myself beyond the lamer advanced degree holders who were, by and large dullards and imbeciles anyway talking about all they were yet unable to do the most rudimentary elements of practical systems integration and management.
So, being surround by those less than competent I rose to the top of my field. I engaged those with college credentials who performed far beneath me. I was finally vindicated when the director of the local 4 year college was quoted as saying that their computer degrees weren't worth the paper upon which they were printed.
Now, in my retirement my bills are paid and I maintain a server cluster in my home to keep me from going stir crazy. Yes, I ended up white collar and in a carer of purely intellectual pursuits ...
But I remain a blue collar man conversion.
Today is National Blue Collar Day. It is an annual December 8 observance since 2019 under the auspices of one Todd Sohn to the workers of America in honor of those who work with their hands and use physical labor to earn a living. The term blue-collar originates from the fact that most workers wore blue uniforms whereas white collar is a rather uppity reference to those with degrees as though they really mean something in the end game.
So happy National Blue Collar Day to those of you who work in the trades. I consider my profession a trade as well. It's just that the world does not recognized it as such.

- National Pearl Harbor Day 2024
-
Yesterday, December 7, 1941—a date which will live in infamy—the United States of America was suddenly and deliberately attacked by naval and air forces of the Empire of Japan.
This day commemoriates the Sunday morning December 7, 1941 attack of the Pearl Harbor Naval Station by the Imperial Japanese Navy. The Japanese had been attacking everyone around them in the name of domination but this particular transgression of peacetime decorum became their downfall.
President Franklin D. Roosevelt
Address to joint session of the US Congress on December 8
The attack on Pearl Harbor killed 2,403 US personnel, including sailors, soldiers and civilians. Another 1,178 people were wounded. 129 Japanese soldiers were killed. Half of the dead at Pearl Harbor were on the USS Arizona. Today the sunken battleship serves as a memorial to all Americans who died in the attack.
My beloved biological father was interred at Clinton United Methodist Church in Salley, South Carolina on December 7 at 5 p.m. with full military honors because his passing was an equally devastating event for our family.

- Richard Speck Passed in 1991
-
The American mass murderer named Richard Benjamin Speck was born on December 6, 1941 in Kirkwood, Illinois the seventh of eight children. He was from a broken home whereby his beloved father died when he was six and his stepfather abused him unmercifully.
He died on December 5, 1991 in Joliet at age 49 after getting over on the criminal justice system for most of his life. He is known for killing eight female nursing students in a Chicago town house in 1966. He went largely unpunished dying of lifestyle disease instead of the electrocution he so richly deserved.
Prior to his life sentence incarceration he was arrested numerous times for things like check fraud, murder, rape, and yet he was set loose upon the earth beyond all of that to commit more acts of murder and mayhem.
He was sentenced to death in the electric chair. Then the libtard Supreme Court declared capital punishment unconstitutional in 1972. This commuted his sentence to eight consecutive terms of 50 to 150 years.
He was denied parole a number of times and died of a heart attack at age 49 after a life of homosexual debauchery and drugs in prison — some of which was filmed at Stateville Correctional Center in Joliet, Illinois and shown on broadcast television under the auspices of journalist Bill Kurtis.
It makes me wonder just how someone like this may slip through the cracks and actually enjoy his incarceration while those families who remain of his victims receive nothing in the way of justice. If anyone is truly in Hell as punishment for misdeeds in life it is surely this man.
Burn in hell.
Gloria Davy, Patricia Matusek, Nina Jo Schmale, Pamela Wilkening, Suzanne Farris, Mary Ann Jordan, Merlita Gargullo, and Valentina Pasion
were murdered by Richard Speck with a knife. - Comments (0)

- Krampusnacht 2024
-
Nothing like a nice soothing monster to temper the holiday season. This brings us to the mighty devil Krampus, a monster which is half-man and half-goat who captures naughty children on the night prior to the feast of Saint Nicholas whereby he chastises them roundly and swats them with bundles of 'ruten' (twigs) by which they are to remember him.
Krampusnacht is celebrated on December 5 and represents that notion that that which is given may be taken away due to our own short comings.
Saint Nicholas bestows gifts which Krampus may take away from those who are deservedly naughty.
While the origins of the Krampus are unclear, I would guess they are pagan in their roots with the general appearance of devils and such.
I for one could never forget an entity depicted as being hairy with large horns cloven hooves, red eyes, and fangs. I suppose some of us are less influenced by what we see in these days of incorrigible youth who grow to be societal rejects.
Now I have personally been entralled by more involved encounters with Krampus whereby the naughty children are taken away for physical punishment and from what I have seen it is quite effective with the younger incorrigables among us.
I suppose it is a viable alternative to ending up with a child which the world could have done without who has no redeeming value for society whatsoever. This may be why the observance grows increasingly popular both abroad and here in the United States.
So feel free to get out there and drink and be merry. Your children may suffer but you likely will only get hung over.

- Santa's List Day 2024
-
He's making a list and checking it twice
Gonna find out who's naughty and nice
Santa Claus is coming to town !
Today is Santa’s List Day.
It happens each December 4.
While I keep copious lists myself this one is both beyond my purview and much more important than any I may conjure up in the heat of the moment.
The list is of Dutch extraction and Sinterklaas, the name for Saint Nicholas in that area of the world.
Be all of this as it may I hope you fall with the nice people and that Christmas is everything for which you could ever ask.
May the eternal child in you come forth with joy during this holiday season !
Merry Christmas.

- National Roof Over Your Head Day 2024
-
I am fortunate to have a roof over my head. My beginnings were sparse and let me say ... somewhat irresponsible. It was as though I were never going to amount to anything.
Then I enlisted in the Navy, evaluated my life, attitudes, and opinions then began to straighten up. I sought what was above and beyond my druggie cohorts. I pursued excellence in a field where there were few peers.
Now I have completed a successful career. It wasn't 'plan A' or even 'plan B' — but some variant I never anticipated.
So today is National Roof Over Your Head Day. It proposes that we give thanks for what we have, particularly the roof over our heads since so many lack this basic necessity. Food, clothing, and shelter. The three needs of mankind and all to many of us are unfortunate in the provisioning of their lives.
So as you lounge around your home this holiday season I hope you'll give thanks for those tender mercies related to home ownership.

- Today we put up Mom's Christmas Tree
-
We continued the tradition of Mom's Christmas Tree today.
We placed her 4 foot National Tree Company fiber optic magnifique example of manufacturing up in the far corner of her living room.
The tradition has been ongoing since she moved into her new house.
We're having those memories as they come and wishing for a joyous Christmas season.
We then pulled the cover off of her couch and placed it in the wash.
Next we sprayed all the furniture and rugs down with our special home made dust mite killer and allowed it all to permeate the room and get those essential oils in the mix activated.
The fragrance is very pleasant.
So now we are a vision of holiday loveliness ready for the season to commence.

- National Bartender Day 2024
-
Back in the old days I knew a fair number of bartenders.
They populated the various watering holes I sought out to imbibe the various spirit concoctions they would proffer for that altered state of consciousness I sought.
Bartending as a profession has been around since ancient times. The bartender crosses cultures and ethnicities and oh so many establishments designed to water down your attitude and relieve you of your cash.
Today is National Bartender Day.
It happens each December 2 in an effort to recognize those who mix your drinks and provide them to you on demand. Mixology is a late manifestation of their craft and it is no trivial task to remember how to mix the various drinks requested at any bar.
So Happy National Bartender Day if you like to get out their and have a drink on occasion.
