We start of this new year with some solid Canadian content: The Schmenges: The Last Polka. And if you’re craving even more content from the brothers, here they are on David Letterman’s show.
Your best recent news tips are much appreciated!

Happy New Year to Kate and the Small Dead Animal Tribe!
Happy New year, everyone!
I was a big fan of SCTV back in the day, I remember how happy it made me to see one of the 90-minute shows in the TV Guide, way back before the world turned to shite.
HiHo, loved SCTV too. The satire was terrific.
Happy New Year to you all! Health, happiness and survival to each !
Happy New Ears to Kate, the contributors and all the denizens!
Hopefully 2020 v3 is less buggy than the earlier releases.
“Happy New Year, everyone! Here’s hoping that 2023 is an absolutely terrific year for you and your loved ones.” Thank y’all. I don’t share the optimistic view, but whatever will be, will be.
SDA has been a great source of news, insights, second opinions and fun. I look forward to one more year of instructive content from the bloggers and the comments.
Cheers!

Lovely that 2023 is starting off with news that Poliviere is a pro-lockdown mask mandating vaxx pass booster turncoat. No doubt he’s a great reset wef booster.
Happy 2023 Kate and those other contributors! You are THE BEST!
My first stop in the AM, and my last stop in the PM. (Here I am again.)
Been here for what seems like ages.
Take care!
IMHO, this movie critic beats the Critical Drinker, hands down:

Drove 900 miles today (try doing that in an electric car), and still made it home in time to watch the Fox News New Years Party in Nashville. Now they know how to throw a party, and they did it in a party town!
Justin loves you, and…you know the rest. (Perhaps this is how the budget balances itself.)

As for a prediction, invest heavily in popcorn futures as the shitshow continues.
George Stephanopouls boss has a massive heat attack, at swanky golf resort, and dies. Two hours later boss’s wife arrested for child endangerment….
https://variety.com/2022/tv/news/dax-tejers-wife-arrested-child-endangerment-1235476583/
Turns out that the now-dead ABC exec and his wife left baby and toddler at hotel room and partied most of the night.
Media coverage. Turns out the Stephanopoulos exec croaked eight days ago, and the following day the entire corporate media sing the praises of the ABC higher-up. Only six days does the arrest get reported, by a few media.
“six days” = “six days later”.
Let’s start off the New Year by throwing into sharp relief the (literal) ugliness of the compassionate, intellectual, left.
You’re not imagining that hard leftists are ugly and unpleasant

An Ancient Puzzle Posed 2,500 Years Ago Now Has an Ingenious Solution
https://www.sciencealert.com/an-ancient-puzzle-posed-2500-years-ago-now-has-an-ingenious-solution
Have a friend who pursued her PhD in Religious Studies. One of her accomplishments was to learn Sanskrit. She always noted the grammar was the worst part.
Sanskrit? I have taken a lot of religion courses and two subjects I’ve always avoided are Greek and Hebrew. Instead I study the Bible as God intended, the King James Version.
I’ve been thinking of doing a degree in religion studies. I’d like to study the prophecy of Joseph Smith, founder of the Latter-Day Saints. That way, if anybody asks me to do anything, I can say, “Sorry, I’ve got Mormon portent things to do”!
Interesting.
Ancient Humans May Have Sailed The Mediterranean 450,000 Years Ago
https://www.sciencealert.com/ancient-humans-may-have-sailed-the-mediterranean-450000-years-ago
“According to a new analysis of shorelines during the mid-Chibanian age, there’s no other way these ancient hominins could have reached what we now call the Aegean Islands. Yet archaeologists have found ancient artifacts on the islands that pre-date the earliest known appearance of Homo sapiens.”
The world has been around many times, as it will do again and again long after our fears and schemes have been ground into dust.
Science has enjoyed a largely unearned (respect ?) / free lunch for far to long and when one wakes up to the b*llsh*t these people spew for grant money then a jaundiced eye is all that should be left to judge them by.
Stop and think about it; just what does something like a hundred billion plus light years even mean and who could even fathom such a number?
Real physics is the only discipline that has any real meaning.

Imesh Ratnayake, 21, was first arrested in July after an Alberta Law Enforcement Response Team (ALERT) investigation by the Internet Child Exploitation (ICE) unit.

How does a pedo get close to children? Drag Queen story hour for kids at public libraries is one way. A disbarred Ottawa lawyer and convicted pedo had two ways of preying on children. He was a child-protection lawyer (I am not making this up) and later joined Alcoholics Anonymous:
“Ottawa police say the former lawyer infiltrated Alcoholics Anonymous meetings only to be around members’ children between August and November.”
Never underestimate what a pedo will do to sexually assault children.

Candy and Levy pulled off the Schmenge Brothers schtick. It was kind of like the Blues brothers skit that Belushi and Ackroyd did, only funny.
Eugene Levy (Yosh) has an obvious accordion background. He’s played a few polka tunes at some point.
Lutonia must be near Ukraine? Maybe on the Polish border.
