State Of Emergency!

California's declared a state of emergency. Not before time, say the experts, just look at the Governor's hair. Remarkable, let's get a  closer look.

Weaponized

Whoa. Did the hair escape from a bioweapons lab? Is it an artificial weaponized virus from a P4 facility in China or something Newsom grew all on his own? It can't be natural.

Just look at it, terrifying. So thanks, "Governor." Californians can now look forward to some kind of lockdown, which obviously won't apply to illegal aliens because that'd be racist. The hair needs votes.

Virus

Perhaps you remember the halcyon days of the Soviet Union. The fortunate Communists weren't allowed to leave their countries because socialism was so very, very awesome.

A Private Update

The onetime Cadet, now Private, called in from Fort Gordon. He was in rude good health and enjoying the ins and outs of learning to be a tech warrior, though he wants to branch out into something kinetic with it. But first things first.

"Dad, I got punished last week."

"What for?"

"Left a Cheetos wrapper under my cupboard."

"Ah. Good. Attention to detail, right?"

A self-policing voice chimed in, "Don't wanna do that, man, gets roaches in the room." The Private agreed, manfully, "Uh, yeah, that's right," and then laughed, he'd had to write out a chapter of SOP and go on punishment parade for a week. 

I told this edifying tale to a teller at the bank in Whitney and she gave me a fist pump, "Yes!" Imagine the utter disaster if the Army allowed these malfeasants to behave according to their own devices. 

Cheeto skulduggery aside, all seems well in the kid's A School. He should graduate in June and get attached somewhere "network." This, he says, is typically "mobile." Which roughly translated means, "Dad, I want to be part of a Battle Group." His mother's not too keen on that, for obvious reasons.

Still, I get his point, I'd want action too if I was 19 and part of the greatest military the world's ever seen. Secondment to the GREEK LEGION? Just a thought, and let's have Constantinople back where it belongs.

Empty Soulless Shills

It's Super Tuesday and what have we here? Three contenders for the DNC throne of total, absolute power. Yes, the presidential nomination itself. So just who are these people?

Joe Biden, handle Groper. Net worth $9 million, a Socialist. Supports up to birth abortion. Age: 77.

Bernie Sanders, aka The Bern. Net worth $2 million, a Socialist, kicked off the commune for thieving from fridges. Supports abortion to the point of birth. Age: 78.

Michael Bloomberg, street name Mini-Mike. Net worth: $64 billion, a dwarven Socialist who hates guns and has no soul. Supports abortion to the point of birth. Age: 78.

Which one of these millionaire, sorry, billionaire socialists will claim the prize? Money's on Biden unless, of course, Michelle decides to run. And will the Anarcho-Marxist Bernists decide to riot? Hey, bring it on. 

Michelle, age 56, has a sturdy socialist net worth of $70 million and she's married to an anointed God King to boot. Roll over, Joe, and let the big dogs in. 

Is Liawatha even in this thing? I forget.

Super Tuesday

Go to the dam and fish, what a great plan, elegant in its simplicity. But how did it work out? Slowly, to be honest, with the slipway waters churning and surging and the fish not biting. Who can blame them, they were surely shell-shocked by the current.

Pedro wasn't having any luck either at the other end of the pier, so I watched the mighty Brazos for a meditative moment or two then headed over to Soldiers' Bluff. Maybe the bite'd be on at the Bluff, which isn't a bluff anymore since it was flooded by the dammed up river.

Reflections on Brazos and Bosque County history aside, the waters of the lake were still and tranquil under the big sky and the bank was empty, peaceful. It had that topwater feel, but I went with worms instead.

Nothing, then a chime on the phone, a text, "I'm hoping for Sanders with plurality, a contested convention at which they hand it to Biden, and then RIOTS." This obviously worked as some kind of trigger because there was vicious tug on the line and out it played.

Up came a predatory socialist bass who was clearly in the business of snatching up free stuff. I put him back to find some other means of production to appropriate, before going berserk when Comrade Bernie's cheated of the nomination yet again. 

One more bass later, a baby, it was time to head for home, mission accomplished. And that, fellow adventurers on the roiling seas of life, is the story of that.

Fish on,

Behold The Face Of Disney And Satan

This is Disney's first ever openly partnered lesbian character, a cyclops policeperson called Officer Specter.

You'll notice Specter stands in front of a crescent moon, signifying Islam, and has a horn, something missing from classical cyclopean portraiture. Could it be that the curiously named Specter is the victim of gender reassignment surgery gone disastrously wrong?

Regardless, the ancient race of Cyclops were notoriously known for their drunken brutality. Are Disney and Pixar issuing a sub rosa warning against trans dyke cops? Some would call it a hate crime and you can sign the petition here.

In related news, Drag Queen Story Hour continues apace, here's an infovideo:

This is why drag queen story hour should be banned. Not because children shouldn’t know what drag is, but because of this hyper sexualized crap. https://t.co/JbC8e7btIi

Wow. What kind of parents would do that to their kid. Look, if you can, at their gleeful faces as degeneracy cavorts in front of a child. "Better," says the Gospel, "that a millstone were hanged about his neck, and he cast into the sea, than that he should offend one of these little ones." (Luke 17:2)

With that in mind, we have to ask who and what is the driving force behind this hatred of children and their innocence. Perhaps "Specter" is telling, it connotes a wraith or spirit of evil aspect and intent. That would be our enemy, Satan.

Don't Fear The Reaper

OK, here it is. Thanks to a commie bioweapons lab in China the entire world's at risk from a weird airborne HIV Kung-Flu. The good news is this.

Don't Fear The Reaper, the virus isn't bubonic plague lethal, but be smart and get in food and water if you haven't already.

Trump Goes Christian For Lent

Preident Trump said this on Ash Wednesday:

Melania and I wish everyone observing Ash Wednesday a peaceful and prayerful day.

For Catholics and many other Christians, Ash Wednesday marks the beginning of the Lenten season that concludes with the joyful celebration of Easter Sunday. Today, millions of Christians will be marked on their foreheads with the sign of the cross. The imposition of ashes is an invitation to spend time during Lent fasting, praying, and engaging in acts of charity. This powerful and sacred tradition reminds us of our shared mortality, Christ’s saving love, and the need to repent and accept the Gospel more fully.

We join in prayer with everyone observing this holy day and wish you a prayerful Lenten journey. May you grow closer to God in your faith during this blessed season.

Simple, powerful and true. Well done, White House Chaplains. But hey, he said it. Then there's the magical, anointed Obama. Remember him? Here's what he had to say:

Today, Michelle and I join our fellow Christians across the country and around the world in marking Ash Wednesday.

Lent is a season of sacrifice and preparation, repentance and renewal. Through reflection on the teachings that guide us, we reaffirm our commitment to God and one another -- and we remember those who are suffering, including those persecuted for their faith.

Through reflection on the teachings that guide us. What would those be, you mountebank, the Koran? And note, not a single reference to Christ or the Cross. Christians made it in, but only just.

Christians, you have a choice. Vote for the man who defends your faith or the Party that hates and denies it to the point of killing babies at birth, all in the name of freedom. The same Party, you may recall, which took the Little Sisters of the Poor to court for not providing abortifacients.

Wake up,

Gurkhas!

Some say the British Army's dead and buried beneath cuts, the thudding hooves of the rainbow unicorn and BBC, Islington millionaire socialism. But that's not entirely true. 

The Brigade of Gurkhas, dam its colonialist soul, has had its largest intake of recruits in over three decades. You might enjoy their passing out parade. 

Open borders, all six of you readers, is a qualified thing.

Ash Wednesday 2020

Memento, homo, quia pulvis es et in pulverem reverteris — Remember, O Man, that thou art dust and unto dust thou shalt return.

Ashes to ashes, dust to dust all brought into stark relief as we kneel to receive an ashen cross on our foreheads. No, fool, you're not a God, you're mortal and destined to return to the earth from which you came. 

Remember, the memento mori is cruciform, in the shape of the same Cross which defeated death by death. Here we find life, our mortality shot through and transformed by eternity.

So Good Friday lives within Ash Wednesday and with it the green pastures and flowing waters of paradise, of the empty tomb and Easter. O death, where is thy sting? Still, before we dare claim the victory we must ally ourselves with it, or rather the Victor himself. And so to Lent.

ALMIGHTY and everlasting God, who hatest nothing that thou hast made, and dost forgive the sins of all those who are penitent; Create and make in us new and contrite hearts, that we, worthily lamenting our sins and acknowledging our wretchedness, may obtain of thee, the God of all mercy, perfect remission and forgiveness; through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.

Wishing you all a holy and blessed penitential season,

Behold The Glory Of The Raj

Richard Wellesley famously said that India needed to be governed from a palace instead of a country house. That happened and the President of India lives there today.

President Trump and America's First Lady were welcomed to Rashtrapati Bhavan by a ceremonial guard of honor and a 21 gun salute. The spirit of the Raj loomed large and you have to wonder at the thing; the Mall, Rotten Row, an Edwardian Baroque Blenheim Palace (?) and the Cotswolds all supersized and rolled in with India to fit the dignity of their Imperial Majesties and Viceroy.

So 45 was welcomed by Lancers, yes they still exist, Gurkhas and a formation made up of members from the three services. Stirring, at least for me, at every level. But was anything missing?

Yes, surely Trump and the First Lady would've looked better in uniform and in a carriage, more in keeping with their cavalry escort than the Beast, awesome as that is. Also, and it's a big also, the Viceroy wasn't there because there isn't one.

Too bad, Great Britain, for not realizing the Commonwealth vision that could have been and might still be. In the meanwhile, well done President Trump and Melania for flying the flag and keeping America great. Well done India too, for such a welcome.
