Rick Beato interviewing Jimmy Webb primarily on the topic of Wichita Lineman but a few other topics as well… like Louis Armstrong telling him to “stick with it”.

I thought “Wichita Lineman” was about college football?
I was … Shockerered … to learn that Wichita State eliminated their football program in 1986

I sure never imagined the author of this classic country song was written by a dirty hippie. My people!

And … he wrote MacArthur Park. Interesting range of writing
Dude had some serious angst about women …

Thank you God, for giving him the talent to work it out in amazing song … instead of in a murder-suicide.
If Lou Reed had written “Wichita Lineman”, it would have been about a shitkicker with a cocaine habit.
Indeed 🙂
Hmmmm, not too many tips…

Back to Professor Uju Anya of Carnegie Mellon University. She’s now under investigation for celebrating Charlie Kirk’s murder as a “Kirkiversary” and “Kirkmas”.
(caution: re-copied USA Today article).
Anya, an associate professor of second language acquisition at Carnegie Mellon University
We need a “professor” for learning a second language? I’m fine with Rosetta Stone, Babbel, Pimsleur, and even Google Translator.
It’s Time To Talk About The Shitting…
“ The “enrichment” we were sold was cuisine, music and vibrant street life. What arrived, in town after town, is a sanitation standard the UN still spends billions trying to wipe out of third world nations. “

TC, your post is full of crap. OK, kinda corny. Sorry.
Good one!
This is a topic that is near and dear to my heart (so to speak), and so I tend to share these stories whenever possible. I worked in the “Facilities” department at a corporate HQ and we had at least one – perhaps more – of the many primitives from the subcontinent who worked on our IT floor who would sometimes shit on the floor right next to the toilet.
Come on TC … it’s not the poor immigrants problem … it’s the failure of the colonials to provide enough public toilets distributed throughout the West. Oh! And don’t be providing those sit-down toilets as the newcomers are used to squatting over holes in the ground. So please build more squatty potty’s for these noble people.

Posted as a firewall link three days ago, but now accessible here. The Globe and Mail reports that the Liberals will hold a fundraiser (took place on Sunday evening) at an unknown location in the Toronto area. AI says that no medium followed up on the G&M exclusive, and that no medium bothered to report on the actual fundraiser.
So we have the Liberal Party shaking down Canadian business execs the night before the Investment Summit is to begin. This is to say, during the Summit Canadian execs are mixing with international business execs while government officials talk up federal money support.
Yes, I feel like the Summit, which is at least an effort by the government, is also a shakedown. Help us and we’ll help you, wink wink.
The DJ is on it:

https://globalnews.ca/news/12057479/mark-carney-investment-summit-protests/
The media coverage at the Summit? I also asked AI what the media coverage looked like. It says that virtually all media reported on how Mark Carney is attracting foreign investment. The above Global news story quotes (uncritically) Carney as saying the Canadian economy is being stimulated as the Investment Summit is taking place. This is like saying pink elephants exist. Virtually all economic research says any possible economic growth takes place after a considerable time lag.
Meanwhile independent conservative YouTube hosts are saying Canadian net investment (Canadian portfolio investment overseas) minus foreign portfolio investmen in Canada) is negative and declining. Two different media wotlds: the paid-and-bought-for media and the independent media.
well thats it with kijiji. now they wanna know all manner of personal stuff just to check my msgs related to their ads and postings. hey, its a fake name already so what about that?
https://www.newswire.ca/news-releases/cpp-investments-and-brookfield-launch-50-billion-maple-fund-to-pursue-large-scale-investments-across-canada-841350467.html
The Canadian Pension Plan Investment Board (CPPIB) and Brookfield to launch a $50-billion investment fund. It’s called the Maple Fund, targeting investments in Canada.,No, anyone daring to think that Mark Carney could in any way profit from this decision — with lots of Brookfield equities in his rather large, blind portfolio — is clearly wrong. Carney’s portfolio is BLIND, and the CCPIB is INDEPENDENT. So move along, move along folks.
If he’s trying to enrich Brookfield he’s doing a shit job. Brookfield Asset Management (BAM) is down more than 18 percent in the past year.
DM, shouldn’t you have written /irony at the end of that post?
Yup, sorry. I got carried away.
Cremation of would-be Trump assassin Thomas Matthew Crooks’ body was paid for by ‘anonymous donor’
https://nypost.com/2026/09/15/us-news/cremation-of-would-be-trump-assassin-thomas-matthew-crooks-paid-for-by-anonymous-donor/
Nothing to see here folks. Move along, move along.
The FBI snipers nest never noticed Crooks on the roof as he nearly assassinated PDJT … but were able to splatter his head before Crooks even emptied his clip … within milli-seconds.
That still troubles me.
It wasn’t the FBI who took him out, it was a local police sniper.
I misspoke … I thought they were secret service. But it doesn’t matter who they were … why did those LEO snipers never notice Crooks on the roof … even as many in the crowd were SHOUTING about a man on the roof … and Crooks was walking upright on the roof … not crawling on his belly.
But … within milliseconds took him out with a headshot?
VISA SCAMS – IS YOUR DOCTOR REAL
https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2026/09/shock-video-fake-indian-degree-racket-busted-kerala/
“SHOCK VIDEO: Fake Indian Degree Racket Busted by Kerala Police – Over 100,000 Fake University Degree Certificates Confiscated Including Medical Degrees… ”
“They Even Had Their Own University Seal Stamps! Authorities estimated that up to 1 million fraudulent degrees could be in circulation. The forged documents primarily targeted fields like medicine, nursing, and engineering, and were sold for ₹75,000 to ₹1.5 lakh (roughly $900–$1,800 USD)…. [a] former official told Newsweek 80-90% of [visa] applications from India involved fraudulent documents or unqualified applicants”
My “doctor” signed me up as a patient (which means he gets paid a fee every year for having me on his patient list) more than a year ago. He was going to get me a referral for a surgery. Despite multiple calls and visits to his office that never happened. It’s been over a year. Went to a different walk in clinic and had the surgery about three months ago. I’ve been waiting for his referral for more than a year now. He is from that part of the world.
This appears to be occurring in every English speaking country. Phony doctors, nurses and engineers profiting from the Affirmative Action/DEI agenda forced by liberal governments and special interests (NGOs) throughout the West.
Yeah … if that was MY medical system … I’d travel to Lithuania for a hip replacement too.
The Piddington Model Takes Off in UK
Referendum Vote Today
https://www.gbnews.com/news/piddington-migrant-camp-referendum-to-leave-uk-ballot-opens
“Villages across Britain are begging for a Piddington blueprint as the Oxfordshire village prepares to hold an unprecedented vote on leaving the UK today.”
An interesting response to unchecked illegal migration and two-tier policing in the UK. I believe the Piddington council contacted President Trump this summer over potential recognition of Piddington independence after today’s referendum.
GB News update: the polls have closed in Piddington. Results tomorrow.
“A staggering 96 per cent backed independence, with just seven local residents voting to remain a member of the United Kingdom.” This is a summary of the July 4 vote to authorize today’s referendum on independence.
Headline I Never Thought I’d See

“Israel provided Saudi Arabia with intel. assistance as Houthi attacks on Riyadh’s assets continue”
Islam is the religion of peace … George Bush just repeated that claim .., on the 25th Anniv. of 9-11. So what is Israel fighting for? They must be the bad guys.
MOVIN’ ON OUT
https://www.breitbart.com/entertainment/2026/09/14/paramount-exodus-would-devastate-california-economy-projections-say/
“Conducted by the Los Angeles County Economic Development Corporation, the study found that California would lose roughly 28,990 to 57,980 full-time jobs statewide across various industries if Paramount relocated to a state like Tennessee, with revenue losses estimated between $10.6 billion and $21.2 billion annually.”
“It should be emphasized that these estimated job losses include direct, indirect and induced jobs, capturing the ripple effects through Paramount’s supply chains in California as well as the economic activity of household spending,”
So much in common between Ca and CA … sadly
