I had another post I was going to write, with the pictures already saved, links stored, and everything. It's too much for today though, so here is some music to end the blog-week.

It's already a week till Christmas day. We'll have some real Christmas music later, but for now, let's Step into Christmas with Elton John. I really like that country-style guitar lick played by Davey Johnstone. This one is from Christmas time 48 years ago:



That's a great "wall-of-sound" sound by Elton and his usual band:

Davey Johnstone - guitar
Dee Murray - bass guitar
Nigel Olsson - drums

and it sounds all 3 singing backing vocals. Elton's lyric writer, Bernie Taupin appears in this video playing bells at 2:00.

Next week, Peak Stupidity will have the post I had in mind today, on immigration as weaponry, a beyond-Steve-Sailer-level fisking of one of the pieces of sheer stupidity he presented from the NY Times, a movie review, maybe something about the R.C. Christian Guidestones Guide, and then some time off. Thanks for reading and commenting!

PS: Good evening Achmed,

Sorry for the slow reply (I've been busy working)...

I luv luv luv Seinfeld. I've watched all of Seinfeld, but I didn't remember Elaine's love of exclamation points.
What! a! funny! show! Indeed! Thanks for the link.

I really hope you're right about Mr. BirdFish being a 12 year old or someone just having fun.

PS: I checked out this BIRDFISH1950's comments, per your links, Adam. I usually assume people like that are just having fun, maybe 12 year-olds having fun even. I like to think that, because it hurts to think otherwise.

That guy might get along pretty well with "Seinfeld"'s Elaine Benice, though. She also has a thing about exclamation points:

So, I really thought this BIRDFISH1950 was some sort of satire account, kinda like Tiny Duck or something...

But, after reading through some of his comments, I think this guy is for real.
I kinda feel sorry for this poor old soul...
And I think some of his comments are hilarious.

PS: Mr. Hail,

I always want to read those 'I ' t-shirts, as 'I hurt ', probably because the person is so often someone I would like to hurt.

A good find.

PS: Ha, the heroic Kung Flu Fighter. I was trying to figure out what hub airport that was taken at, Mr. Hail. I sure hope we don't see much more of that. I've seen close myself.

PS

With a Corona-Panic ramp-up, and some places shutting down Christmas again, let us remember during the holiday slowdown remember and honor the real heroes of the Corona-Panic of 2020-to-2022[?]*, such as this heroic flu-fighter:

PS: That sounds like stuff I listened to years ago, UsNThem. Yeah, I should embed some of their stuff next week. Thanks for the reminder.
