Hoping this finds you in a good state of mind, having enjoyed a wonderful Christmas with your loved ones. As this Boxing Day begins, we travel back to simpler times and enjoy these commercials from the 1940’s.
Feel free to leave some tips or just share how you spent your Christmas and what the main topics of conversation were.

1991-12-25/26–the Soviet Union is dissolved by Mikhail Gorbachev:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dissolution_of_the_Soviet_Union
I recall that I watched part of his speech mid-morning on the 25th, but the date in Moscow would have been the 26th. When I saw that, I switched on my shortwave receiver so that I could at least hear a bit of it direct from Radio Moscow, catching the last few minutes.
That’s when the Second World War ended. The USSR lost.
(Unfortunately, no Nuremburg trials of the Soviet war criminals after they lost the cold war.)
Physicist Dr. Ed Berry rips UN IPCC’s ‘climate fiction’ – Explains ‘why the IPCC is wrong’
“human CO2 is only 5 percent of today’s atmospheric CO2, not 30 percent as IPCC incorrectly assumes” “IPCC counters that human CO2 stays in the atmosphere longer than natural CO2 causing the human portion to be 30 percent…This IPCC claim is absurd because human and natural CO2 molecules are identical, so they flow out of the atmosphere at the same rate”!
“Even the 2021 emissions reduction due to COVID did not stop the inevitable CO2 increase caused by natural CO2, further proving climate treaties and green energy are useless because they ignore that unstoppable nature is the dominant cause of the CO2 increase”.
On this bone-chilling December 25th, I don’t think any type of C02 is making the planet warmer.

Ben Shapiro: The Left’s War With Biological Reality
“…This is one of the paradoxes of pregnancy: something alien is usurping your body and sapping you of nutrition and energy, but you’re programmed to gleefully enable it and you become desperately protective of it. It’s a kind of biological brainwashing.”
“Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, D-N.Y., the spectacularly dull Instagram star, characterized opposition to abortion as the legalization of “forced birth.” …biology itself is an imposition on women…; ending a pregnancy by killing an unborn child is a restoration of the natural order”.
https://www.conservativedailynews.com/2021/12/ben-shapiro-the-lefts-war-with-biological-reality/
So biology is sexist now?
BAD – Just ask J K Rowling.
Biology is not an abstract concept.
It just slays me that these idiots who claim to be of “The Party of Science” couldn’t recognize a fact if it slapped them upside the head.
“Ontario reports more than 10,000 daily cases of COVID-19 for the first time. Public Health Ontario is also reporting another four deaths linked to the virus. ” That’s a pretty flu-like ratio.

Notice that COVID cases started spiking in late November in Ontario but …the death rate, below, hasn’t budged.

Approximately 800 people die every single day in Canada…
Yes, Buddy and that is based on Stats cans numbers, I think 823 is about the exact average.. The US number is about 8,000 a day. I attempted to make this point several times. With about 10% of their population why are we not seeing 10% of the vax problems, because as of Dec10th, 20,244 people died from the vax in America. We should be seeing at least 2,000 deaths. I wonder who is lying by omission? There is no damn way we are not having the same problems as we are not superhuman. Unless we are not vaxxing the numbers we are saying we are.
Oh dear!

Love it. It is apparently spreading around the world.
I don’t know if this has been posted earlier, however let’s never miss a chance to embarrass the Turd:
Justin annoyed at “Little Potato” reference during Question Period.
The Opposition should create every opportunity to keep picking at this festering sore.

Well Rob, here is what that ” Black Little Potato ” and it’s sibling think of Christmas.

Look carefully at both of their sweaters.
They mock and troll us.
I’m looking forward to his Ramadan sweater. 🙂
Maybe it will ” blow up real good “.
Big Jim McBob- Happy New Year!
The link, BTW is not to 40s ads, but rather to 70’s cop show intros.
He gets applause from his imported constituents and a pat at the back from his Chicom masters. We’re being conquered his choice of attire is just a reflection of that.
Breaking on CBC News! Montreal and Ottawa are both stolen lands, stolen by whitey settlers:

Shut down your idiot box…
It’ll only make you more stupid and pissed off with ‘breaking news’ and stupidity reporting.
Our politicians want Choas to be happening as it detracts from what is REALLY ABOUT TO HAPPEN.
I figure it a MASSIVE FUEL SUPPLY SHORTAGES as our politicians stay the current coarse as EVERYTHING shuts down.
Notice how the Chinese Coal supplies collapsed and Germany is still on coarse for MASSIVE ELECTRICITY OUTAGES.
No internet means, no communication and no supply chain to follow.
No Bitcoin or banking as well.
China bought our politicians decades ago with trade deals that we’re not allowed to know about.
Hence, everything made in China all over but that too has come at a cost of using up massive amounts of fossil fuels.
But our governments want choas and distractions as this system collapses on itself.
So, expect more propaganda designed to drive you crazy.
When you no longer create your own vital infrastructure supplies…

Any discoveries are pipe dreams waiting for government approval.
Trudeau and our politicians are just puppets in this board game.
3 more footie ballers die from heart attacks in the last 5 days.
All are relatively young ( compared to me ).
And yes, all are jabba, jabbed.

Speaking of people dieing, seems a New York Times editor has died of a heart attack ,one day after getting the sweet life saving goo booster.
Janssen Fueled and Moderna boosted.

Karma , anyone ?
John, schadenfreude at the very least.
Trudeau is trending, again. It’s not so much China is clever it’s more like Trudeau is an idiot. When is he going to ban Hauwei?

China is using commercial interests to “cleverly play” Western nations against one another, Justin Trudeau says, urging a united Western front. “We need to do a better job of working together and standing strong so China can’t play the angles and divide us one against the other.”
“Desmond Tutu, anti-apartheid leader and voice of justice, dead at 90”
https://www.cnn.com/2021/12/26/africa/desmond-tutu-death-intl-hnk/index.html
Funny how the “press” and all the right thinking talking heads proclaimed Dear Desmond as a saint..
All I ever saw was a mouthpiece for justifying tribal homicide.
And a preacher of Marist Murder.
After the passing of the years,What did the Bishop achieve..
Are Rhodesians and South Africans better off?
Where be,that thriving African culture?
How is that “Enlightened Tribal Leadership” working out?
Remember the Bread Basket of Africa?
And now,as our Progressive Comrades impose Apartheid onto western civilization,where are all these talking heads and do-gooders?
In my mind,Desmond Tutu is with Tommy Douglas…Not dead enough.
I was going to write something before but you John summed it up perfectly.
Thanks.
Politics and the cowardice of elected dimwads costs us all.

Partially the politicians but mostly the bureaucrats. Many don’t realize that there is a cost to regulations, the not so hidden tax. Many regulations are proposed without any inkling of impacts on cost, constructability or timelines. An additional cost is that of delays. Canada can boast the longest times to obtain a permit. Other countries which exhibit similar laggardly timelines at least have the potential of well placed bribes to expedite matters. Canada is mostly honest. If politicians want to reduce the cost of their projects they can ask the developer community what regulations and procedures are holding them back. They will get an earful.
Fauci reacts to Trump’s vaccine comments
Fauci’s reaction is just a sidebar to this story. The choice of headline demonstrates that Trump’s name still sells clicks for major media. The story also highlights that many Trump supporters and detractors don’t understand his stand on vaccines.

Is the word “low” when mentioned in a weather forecast also “racist”? Cancel-culture meets climate alarmism?
What is a record-cold high?

Good question.
If we use the Waukesha protocol employed by the corporate media, shouldn’t we be saying “a phone pulled a prank on Biden and got him to say Let’s Go Brandon”?
Absolutely. Just like here in Canada, where guns get up, go outside and randomly kill people.
And forks jump out of the silverware drawer & force food down people’s throats. Experienced it myself yesterday…
Yeah, that one is particularly hard to swallow. Happened to me too and I was the cook.
A porch pirate was injured in the filming of this scene. If a little vigilante justice offends you, don’t watch, its rather effective corrective action.

Perhaps the “victim” will think before he tries to do it again.
Maybe one more saved from the life of crime.
Or maybe he will refine his technology, look at the politicians.
All I could do was just laugh.
Made my day.

Jerome K Jerome wrote humorous articles in the latter half of the 19th century. ‘On the weather’ illustrates the divide between urban and rural people when it comes thinking about the weather.
Ironside’s intro was the best, but a strong second to Hawaii Five-0.
I remember watching all these shows in the 40’s. And I wasn’t even born yet!
Now that’s funny, I don’t care who you are.

A great tune to end the season on.
A very interesting read. Ever wonder who rules the world?

B A and others who love Gilbert and Sullivan Musicals, we were reminded of an anniversary today, Boxing Day:
http://www.smalldeadanimals.com/2021/12/25/december-25-2021-reader-tips/#comment-1553465
Had no idea about any lost musicals. In honor of Boxing Day here is… a bit…from “Thespis”…just a wee bit:
Watch “Thespis” by Gilbert & Sullivan

You may recall posting a YouTube URL for the movie Eroica a few days ago. It was about the premiere of Beethoven’s Third Symphony. I dipped into my supply of round tuits and watched it.
Thanks for the tip.
Bitteschön.
It looks like the province of Alberta is leaning toward the liberals. That being the case that should finally put a nail in the country we used to call Canada. Socialism has arrived.
How Big Of Kick Backs Are our Politicians getting From BIG PHARMA.
