In 1982 the late Klaus Nomi appeared on French television to sing the Nomi Song. To this day, no one outside of Germany knows why.

Interesting.. He appeared when he was “late”.. Sorry, I don’t believe in ghosts.
Ohmygod but that song was underwhelming. Nice to know that not all the nuts are in California. There are definitely some nuts on the European courts just like we have on our supreme courts.

Too much green and not enough foresight could lead to some nasty surprises if we get a traditional (or worse) winter. Perhaps it’s needed for a reality check.

Is it still required to hate mimes? That trope has been overused for some time now. Or maybe it’s a meme. I’m confused.
I didn’t realize that John Goodman was a piano player? 🙂
Time to do my annual plug for Canada’s Christmas carol the Huron Carol which I have yet to hear on the radio. A million versions of Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas and I’ll Be Home For Christmas though which I used to love.

Socialists starting down the slippery slope of eugenics all over again. This is how it starts.

And here I thought “Dumb and Dumber 2” just came out a few weeks ago; I hadn’t realized we were on “Dumb and Dumber 3” yet.
Time for Ms. Wynne’s Alison Redford moment. Like Ms. Redford, Kathleen never grew up and has no conception of responsibility. You’d think that it might have occurred to her that one of the reasons she got a (tepid) majority was because folks were tired of her blame-shifting onto a minority parliament. I guess not.
Back a few months ago wsaw some useful idiots led by Al Gore and his little brattiness Robert Kennedy Jr march through the streets of new York and blabbering about this Global Warming poppycock and calling for Socialism today we see useful idiots rioting and calling for a communists revolution Joe McCarthy was right about these sinister leftists scum

“Mann’s tree ring proxy train wreck”
“Mann’s thermometer spliced hockey stick has taken even more damage in the last few days, with Steve McIntyre helpfully providing reconstructions based on tree rings which demonstrate how, without the benefit of Mike’s scientifically dubious “nature trick”, the hockey stick simply disappears – tree rings demonstrably don’t correlate with temperature.
According to McIntyre; “The new information shows dramatic failure of the Sheep Mountain chronology as an out-of-sample temperature proxy, as it has a dramatic divergence from NH temperature since 1980, the end of the Mann et al (and many other) reconstructions.”

Kate: here’s a juxtaposition that you might want to run with:
Margaret Drabble, in full froth over the Bush administration in the Daily Telegraph, May 8, 2003: “My anti-Americanism has become almost uncontrollable. It has possessed me, like a disease. It rises up in my throat like acid reflux, that fashionable American sickness. I now loathe the United States …. There is another America. Long live the other America, and may this one pass away soon.”
Reuters, Dec. 6, 2014: “Obama, complaining of sore throat, diagnosed with acid reflux” — http://www.reuters.com/article/2014/12/06/us-usa-obama-throat-idUSKBN0JK0RA20141206
