        1. Sheeeet, man, that honkey mus’ be messin’ my old lady got to be runnin’ col’ upsihd down his head!

      1. So it turns out. They flew under my radar (bad pun, I know), and I have only learned about them when watching this video. The whole channel has a lot of interesting material about rare and often forgotten aircraft.

    1. It’s a nearly scene for scene remake of an earlier movie called Zero Hour, but that’s not important right now.

  1. A few weeks ago, the spaghetti western comedy They Call Me Trinity was the featured video. It seems, however, that because of that film’s success, Italian film companies caught on that using the name “Trinity” in a movie title made it more marketable.

    I’ve got two examples of that. First, there’s a somewhat disorganized spaghetti western comedy Stay Away from Trinity….. When He Comes to Eldorado:

    It has nothing to do with the aforementioned Terence Hill/Bud Spencer flick.

    Then there’s Trinity Sees Red:

    This one was made before TCMT, with Terence Hill playing a hired gun and it’s a bit better. The cast also includes Fernando Rey, who’s perhaps best known for playing the drug kingpin in The French Connection.

  2. Shirley you can’t be serious.
    I am serious, and don’t call me Shirley.

    1. The CBC finds prostitution “empowering”

      And here we thought it was a synonym for journalism.

    1. I watched it some 20 years ago on Bravo, before it became the CTV re-run channel. I’m sure someone can guess why I did…..

    1. An on-line financial dominatrix? And here I thought I might have seen everything….

      1. Men spending money on women, and the only thing they get in return are insults? That sounds a lot like dating…..

    1. Who reads a child’s picture book as a news article?

      Our prime minister?

    2. Ah yes, more climate change swill from the CBC. Here’s a paper written by prof. William Happer of Princeton and prof. Richard Lindzen of MIT that was submitted to the SEC in June. Not sure if it has been through the ringer on SDA yet but i haven’t noticed it in my fairly regular reading. My apologies if its a repost.

      This should be required reading for all.

      Part of the title…
      “As career physicists, science demonstrates there is no climate related risk caused by fossil fuels and CO2…”

  3. Years ago, I came across a movie called “Zero Hour”, and it was uncannily like a serious version of “Airplane”. Turns out they used that script, sometimes word for word, as a basis for this iconic comedy. I believe they even used the actual prop engine sound effects from the original movie for their running gag throughout “Airplane”.

    If you are an “Airplane” fan and get a chance, watch “Zero Hour”, I found the similarities both eerie and fascinating to witness.

    “Looks like I picked a bad week to quit anphetamines.”

    1. Zero Hour was actually a movie adaptation of a TV play (written by Hailey) broadcast by the CBC. The Dana Andrews role was played by a pre-Star Trek James Doohan.

  4. So how exactly did Ivana Trump fall? She suffered injuries to the torso. Ordinarily in a conscious fall, you would put out your arms to break the fall. Could she have been unconscious when she fell? I know 4 people who have had mysterious and unexplained falls since the vax. One person was cycling, and he has no recollection of what caused his dangerous fall. Are the vaxes causing blackouts?

  5. Now the little ecofreaks are deflating SUV tires in Waterloo . I wonder how long it will be before someone gets hurt . SOS ….

      1. They can’t do that. Their precious little darlings will be scarred–traumatized!–for life.

    1. It’s a good thing that I have my father’s shop compressor in the back of my truck. I can always inflate the tires if some twerp tries to let the air out them.

    1. John O’Looney is in Milton Keynes, England.

      Seen many interviews of him.
