For your musical delight tonight we offer you a Shania Twain classic, You’re Still the One, as performed by the Petersen family of Missouri. In contrast, here’s the original as performed by Canada’s beautiful Timmins sweetheart.
Your best tips of the past 24 hours are much appreciated!

AFAIK, except in one occasion, tennis has not done anything overt in kowtowing to BurnLootMurder, so here goes:
Congrats to those of you Canadians who care. Three Canadian men advanced to the Round of 16 in the U.S. Open. I wonder if that has ever happened before.

All of you know what Lyndon said about securing the black vote with the civil rights act.
“We’ll have them (insert derogatory word of choice here, in plural) voting for us for decades.”
Add Leroy Tyrell and Bob Woodson to the list of great men that Limbaugh mentions.
Derek – great article by Rush Limbaugh. Hopefully enough black Americans can see what is going on.
Sometimes less-than-perfect music makes for the strongest message or memories. From a 2014 Japanese commercial. I don’t know if it’s for the music school, or the instrument dealer, but a powerful video.

Want to do your part for decolonization? Look at your….lawn!
Former VICE reporter turns your lawn into an aboriginal rights issue, or something.
https://www.theglobeandmail.com/canada/article-is-it-time-to-decolonize-your-lawn/
“Want to do your part for decolonization?”
Nope, not at all. the opposite in fact.
Canadians who have nice lawns are racist bastards. You must let the grass grow, put a rusted out truck on it, along with liquor bottles.
That explains the neighbours across the street.
So someone wants to turn the lawn at the house I inherited into an aboriginal rights issue, eh? Well, they’re welcome to it.
It’s looking scraggly because I can’t fertilize it because I’ll violate some sort of environmental ordinance. I can’t water it because of water conservation due to climate change or something.
In the spring, it’s covered with dandelions, but, then, everybody along the street has the same problem. Later, there’s clover, but I’d much rather have that. Clover’s good for the soil. Clover looks nicer, in my opinion, and bees like clover.
Pure and perfect grass needs so much expensive time consuming loving care to stay looking good. However my lawn is much greener in spite of my neglect (from sheer laziness, no watering, no fertilizer, no pesticides) because weeds and clover are hardier. Some of my neighbours fight every year to have a golf course look and still are afflicted with large unslightly brown spots(mostly from grubs)
My parents couldn’t do much with the lawn in their final years, for obvious reasons. I don’t have much time for it as I’m still clearing stuff out of the house and will be for at least another year.
One reason the lawn’s looking scruffy is that my parents and I planted several spruce trees in the yard and the needles that are shed aren’t too fussy about where they fall.
Most people cut their lawns too short. That’s where problems begin. The lawn burns and then turns brown.
Last Winter took a beating on mine. With a bit of aeration, dethatching, additional soil (mixed with a bit of sand) a bit of grass seed, one application of fertilizer and rain, I had a nice lawn all summer. Using a forked tool one can pluck out the few dandelions that dare to take root. (Get’em before they go to seed)
There was no cutting necessary except for once per week in June, twice in July and zero times in August. Then one final cut for the season last week. That’s it.

Your lawn is good for the environment, it is a carbon sink. The people at City Hall who make bylaws against having a lawn haven’t studied the issue well enough.
P.S.
I saw one place in Calgary where the people put white rocks (2″ size) on top of a thick piece of plastic at the front yard. In the middle of that, was a circle (6′ diameter) of brown rock. In the middle of that, a few plants like roses and a peony. It looks really stupid. But hey, they’ve no lawn to mow!
Just trivia—
I started reading this back in the 1970s — now this comes to mind:
The idea of decolonization of one’s lawn likely came from Heinlein’s sci-fi novel published in 1961:
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stranger_in_a_Strange_Land
This is grok:
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grok
Has anyone read it?
Seems he touched upon the concept in the future —
everyone’s lawn will be reduced to the size of ~ 2′ × 2′
Sometimes the suggested list comes up with real oddballs. That work. A bagpipe trio? Covering Heavy Metal?

No wonder Trudeau picked her for finance minister; Freeland is in charge of making this a freeland.
Sad to say, I look forward to when $2,000-a-month won’t buy a loaf of bread – and it’s coming for Canada as sure as night follows day, just like it did in Venezuela, Zimbabwe and Weimar Germany. Of course they could just order stores to sell food for 10% of what it cost to make – how well did that work out, Senor Maduro?
And this is the textbook illustration of holding-on-to-power-at-all-costs. Well played, Prime Minister Zoolander!
Meanwhile, at experimental farms across Canada, federal government botanists are hard at work developing several species of money tree that can grow in northern latitudes and survive throughout the year. Now word yet on what denominations these trees will produce, though there are unconfirmed rumours that those trees producing $10 bills will require further work as they still make the ones showing Sir John A. Macdonald.
B A, you could be a comedy writer, if only there were a dissident medium, in Canads, who could aftord to pay you. This post is priceless.
Thanks.
Ya, 2nd that.

@ Y. Knott:
That’s my fear as well, it will be especially painful for pensioners. However I don’t believe it will be as bad as the Weimar Republic’s experience. But I certainly think a yearly inflation rate of 15% to 20% is plausible for a while. Whatever, the fact is that Trudeau and his liberals are highly dangerous morons who are going to cause the ruination of Canada.
Well, we have debit cards now, so at least we won’t need wheelbarrows to cart money around.
Yep. Serious inflation is coming with the recovery. You can’t print and give away money like Turdeau and expect it to retain it’s value.
I’m so old that I remember when the federal budget would balance itself.
In my New Brunswick the liberal leader Vickers promised to balance our budget by 2023 if elected. What a laugh.
All the media in North America is excited this morning about the video of Blake in his Kenosha hospital bed. He gives greetings to his millions of followers, and looks forward to resuming his work on curing cancer and volunteering his time looking after kittens at the animal shelter.
“Curing cancer”? But didn’t Obama assign Biden to cure cancer?
This missive — Is it time to decolonize your lawn — made it to the top of the G&M s main page (I kid you not):
https://www.theglobeandmail.com/canada/article-is-it-time-to-decolonize-your-lawn/
Read the 400+ comments, to show how Globe readers — inured by the hard-left ptopaganda — are taking the drivel.
“Chief Supt Graham stated there was no suggestion the stabbings were “motivated by hate” or that it was terror or gang related with detectives now trawling CCTV and drains for clues.”
CS Graham speaking about the latest stabber in Birmingham UK. Though they have not caught the man who killed 1 and injured 7 he knows instinctively that this POS is just misguided.
Decolonize your house – remove the roof.
Yes probably just inadequate training in the proper use of a “knife” or had not received the correct interpretation of the phrase “bury the hatchet”.
And now the Political Scrum at Blackie’s CBC. Today the two socialists, fat indian, and black woman discussed Great Leader’s new plans. They want to see green energy projects, national baby sitting program, guaranteed income for everybody, laws to combat racism/Islamophobia, and of course a lot more money for indians.
California is looking forwards to glorious free energy as the heatwave brings in record amounts of harvestable sunshine! Uh, er, no, rolling blackouts will intensify for 100,000 customers.

I see in Rome today they are protesting the health dictatorship, thousands are in the streets, no masks no social distancing and we need to start doing that. We have to get people to think, this virus is not destroying the people or the planet, our dumbass actions are screwing things up.
I’ve been noticing several reports of missing children being found lately. Just this morning a missing girl found at a Texas border crossing.
The ultimate sorrow of our media is that they are more concerned with electing a hair sniffer and a black faced sock model.
Finding kids strikes me as real news.
Also, yesterday, Malice and Tim Pool suggested Ghislane Maxwell might be singing. Interesting if true.

‘It shouldn’t exist’: Rust found on the moon puzzles scientists

Another theory is the machinery sent was rusty when it left Earth.
Mike T – I blame global warming. Or it could be that the rust is all that is left of the alien ships/civilization. Both are equally probable.
Orange moon bad?
And, according to Neil Young, rust never sleeps.
Judging by his brain, that’s true.
A good essay on the history of the Democratic Party for the last 50 years, from Breitbart. Clinton was re-elected as tough-on-crime. Every time the Democrats have been the party of rioters they have lost.

“Rashford criticises UK MP Kevin Hollinrake’s ‘feeding children’ tweet”
https://www.bbc.com/news/uk-england-york-north-yorkshire-54047598
Yes indeed, start them on the dole early. Expecting a parent to feed their children is unconscionable .
‘Among those who also replied was the chief executive of First Days Children’s Charity, Emma Cantrell.
She said the MP’s comment was typical of the “type of ignorance that we encounter every day” and added: “We have also not come across a single parent who isn’t desperate to provide everything their children need.” ‘ Like mobile phones, perhaps ?
Great sound bites from Reagan.

Global News reports that the Parliamentary Budget Office has issued a statement that the current level of spending is unsustainable, and must be brought under control within the next 1-2 years. Meanwhile Great Leader is planning for massive increases in the deficit to pay for his big plans to change Canada.

I could have posted the original tweet but a comment in Levin’s retweet was sentiments I have read numerous times now. The first time I heard a similar story was an interview with Gene Ho, Trump’s campaign photographer 2015-16. He said when Trump talks to you there is no one else in the room. That was when I really started to come around for Trump. I recently purchased Gene Ho’s book TRUMPography.

Something that I have noticed about Trump is that if you engage in a conversation with him… he is not gonna let his eyes off you. Not even for a second until the conversation is over. No matter what happens around, his priority is talk to the person he has in front of him.
