    1. I only saw two Star Bores movies: the original (which I liked the first time I saw it, but saw how lame it was when I watched again a few years later) and the third one. After that, I didn’t give a rat’s patootie about the whole concept.

      1. I like the original trilogy. I suppose it is an acquired taste. You missed the second one which was arguably the best one (Episode V Empire Strikes Back). The prequels were awful but not as awful as the rebooted SJW all inclusive edition. Here is a brilliant review of the second last (I think) abortion: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LPsRp7uUXUk

    2. How ‘Star Wars’ was secretly George Lucas’ Vietnam protest

      Vietnam, it turns out, was a strong undercurrent in the thinking of Lucas (who was rejected for the draft because he was diabetic). Even before he made “Star Wars,” he wanted to make a documentary-style antiwar film on Vietnam that was to be called, in a title devised by his friend John Milius, “Apocalypse Now.” …

      Back in a 1973 note on “Star Wars,” Lucas made clear which side he was rooting for in the Vietnam War: “A large technological empire going after a small group of freedom fighters.”

  1. Bring Back Dueling. We would quickly see a more polite people in society.
    Besides it would quickly sharpen the minds of our greasy politicians if there were line ups of insulted tax payers at their doors everyday, waiting to slap their face and challenge them to a duel.
    CHAPTER VII. Arms, and Manner of Loading and Presenting Them.
    1. The arms used should be smooth-bore pistols, not exceeding nine inches in length, with flint and steel. Percussion pistols may be mutually used if agreed on, but to object on that account is lawful.
    2. Each second informs the other when he is about to load, and invites his presence, but the seconds rarely attend on such invitation, as gentlemen may be safely trusted in the matter.
    3. The second, in presenting the pistol to his friend, should never put it in his pistol hand, but should place it in the other, which is grasped midway the barrel, with muzzle pointing in the contrary way to that which he is to fire, informing him that his pistol is loaded and ready for use. Before the word is given, the principal grasps the butt firmly in his pistol hand, and brings it round, with the muzzle downward, to the fighting position.
    4. The fighting position, is with the muzzle down and the barrel from you; for although it may be agreed that you may hold your pistol with the muzzle up, it may be objected to, as you can fire sooner from that position, and consequently have a decided advantage, which ought not to be claimed, and should not be granted.

  2. What a wonderful film. Quentin Reynolds to narrate just makes it even better. Spitfires, bedding down in the Tube, English churches. Be still my heart. Thanks for putting that one up.

    1. “Juthtin “diverthity ith our thtrength” Queerdeau is going to have to give a lecture.”

      – He already did. Roughly summarized, it boils-down to “I’m SOOOORRRY, Great Leader Xi, that Canadians are racist bastards!”

  3. A discussion on CNBC business news this morning mentioned that a poll showed that 55%:NYC firefighters said that they would refuse to take the China virus vaccine, if they were allowed to opt out.

  4. Another Trudeau lie that the media won’t mention. Blacklock reports that Canada’s public health agency was surprised when Adolf announced back in June that the government was ready for a vaccine roll out. The agency complained in internal memos that a vaccine task force had not even been talked about yet.

  5. And now more stories you won’t see in the Canadian media. Blacklock reports that Adolf’s government threw out millions of dollars in PPE to avoid leasing costs at buildings. The PPE was sent to landfills. And Adolf’s representative in the Senate states that taxes will keep going up until carbon targets are met.

  6. How to bypass youtube ads.
    Most of my utube watching consists of documentaries and music. I have a visceral dislike of ads, so in order to view programs without ads, I download the shows using an app and watch at my convenience. The app I use is JDownloader 2, but there are others out there.

    1. I occasionally visit / buy from on-line outfits that advertise on sites I frequent. But after their blatantly biased censoring of the election, I will not be buying from anybody who advertises on Youtube – anymore than I would buy anything “Made in China” if there was any reasonable alternative – except I’ll buy everything I’m looking-for from Taiwan if available from them. I recall looking-over a floor-model air conditioner during one heat-wave. It took several minutes of minutely scanning the box to locate a very small “Made in PRC” (a 2′ x 2′ x 3.5′ box, and the writing smaller than it is in this sentence). I didn’t buy it.

      – The which, a(n unpaid) freebie for Big ‘n Tall; I was in there and noticed a display stand of socks, all roughly the same, but two-of-the-three styles were “Made in China” and one was “Made in Canada”. You can guess which style I bought-out – and which style I’d pay a lot more to buy from Big ‘n Tall than cheap “Imported for Walmart” department-store socks. Sorry for the advert, Kate – Buy Canadian!

      P.S. Brave sieves-out most of the ads already.

    1. They can go both ways (but they really only ever go up) – EVERYTHING increases temperatures.

      You didn’t know? 😉

  7. Welcome To Emperor Justin Trudeau’s Canada. The New Globalist Feudal System. This is what YOU VOTED FOR 2X Canada.
    According to the projections of the WEF’s “Global Future Councils,” private property and privacy will be abolished during the next decade. The coming expropriation would go further than even the communist demand to abolish the property of production goods but leave space for private possessions. The WEF projection says that consumer goods, too, would be no longer private property.

    If the WEF projection should come true, people would have to rent and borrow their necessities from the state, which would be the sole proprietor of all goods. The supply of goods would be rationed in line with a social credit points system. Shopping in the traditional sense would disappear along with the private purchases of goods. Every personal move would be tracked electronically, and all production would be subject to the requirements of clean energy and a sustainable environment.

  8. What does it mean to be a free man anymore? Am I truly free when the money I pay in taxes goes to support the excesses of a profligate, overreaching, and immoral government? Am I truly free when the scum that make the rules do not abide by them? Am I not free then to ignore the rules?

  9. Angry Adolf The Gay Nazi and China Patty visited an Ottawa hospital this morning for a photo op. It will make great propaganda for the election. Later on he held a presser for his loyal media. First he explained how wonderful he is. Then made an announcement that the first Moderna vaccine shipment will go to Inuit up north, and indians on reservations. We must prevent another genocide. He then praised himself for giving half a billion dollars to buy vaccines for shit hole countries. Then ranted on about missing indians. Questions from the media included why aren’t indians getting more free stuff.

  10. The Santa Claus covid19 vaccine express arrived…where else but in quebek.

    The first among equals didn’t disappoint. Quebekkie got the first dose.

    In these most uncertain of times it’s reassuring to know that at least some things remain unchanged…

    1. Wouldn’t it be awesome if Queerbec COVID stats went through the roof right after and they went through the streets calling “Bring out your dead”?
      I’d build a wall.

  11. The G&M is just reporting that fashion mogul Peter Nygard has just been indicted, in the U.S., for racketeering and six trafficking. Could Mr. Nygard, as a Canadian, ever be charged by our justice system in Csnada? Oh, wait.

    1. “six trafficking” should read “sex trafficking”. He was also charged with having sex with a minor, trafficking a minor across state lines for sex trafficking, etc.

  12. And now your whiny indian story for today. Post Millennial reports that a university professor in La La Land B.C. is demanding that the Vancouver Canucks stop using indian symbols as it is stealing from indian culture. This comes after the goalie had to apologize for having indian drawings on his mask.

    1. The Cultural appropriation can’t be the letter C because Indians didn’t have an alphabet. Indians didn’t invent the orca. The orca is slightly stylized. Just changed it the tiniest bit and they’re gravy. Give it shark teeth.

    2. I suggested when the nhl capitulated to the burn murder loot crowd that they would be back for more.Well, if it worked for the n*ggers why not the injuns.

    1. I take it, then, that xim/xer/xit considers a certain song written by Jerry Leiber and Mike Stoller, first recorded by Big Mama Thornton, and made famous by Elvis as a personal anthem.

        1. I do too.
          I had to redo post,
          when I played it back it there was
          an error and Mama disappeared!
          P.S. Elvis who? Before our time eh?

  13. The virus plot thickens once again.

    https://www.zerohedge.com/political/emails-reveal-scientific-effort-engineer-natural-origin-theory-dispel-fringe-lab

    Apparently equally strong arguments for both Covid being of ‘natural origin’ and being of ‘engineered origin’.

    Sars and Mers both had a delay of about 7 to 10 days where one would notice them and could start taking medicines to combat them.
    Covid 19 has no delay and starts to work immediately, which is why it is deadly to weakened immune systems.

    Some have described it as being designed to kill people quickly as would be desired in bio-warfare.
    In any event, it doesn’t look like this Bad Genie is getting back in the lamp quickly.
    The UK has found new quicker acting strains already.

  14. And now another superior indian culture story. National Post reports on a new Aztec find in Mexico. The tower of skulls consists not only male sacrifice victims, but also women and children.

  15. The Great Reset Marxist Revolution
    “A revolution never brings prosperity to a nation, but benefits only a few shameless opportunists, while to the country as a whole it heralds countless deaths, widespread impoverishment, and, in the gravest cases, a long-lasting degeneration of the people.” – Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn

  16. Is there better proof that we are a fundamentally unserious country:

    http://acecomments.mu.nu/?post=391685

    I’m embarrassed by that slop. The old canard that Canadians are “nice”. Total BS. Some of the snottiest people I’ve met while traveling are Canadians, whereas the friendliest and most social are – wait for it – Americans.

    We are a joke and a parody with this garbage.

    mhb23re

    1. Some of the friendliest hams I’ve spoken with over satellites were Americans.
