Kim Jong-Un-Deux-Trois


Kim Jong-Un will be meeting with President Trump sometime in the next few months to negotiate the removal of ballistic missiles and atomic weapons from North Korea. Obviously, Lil' Kim will not make these concessions without demanding something in return. Our spies in Pyongyang have uncovered a number of the things (more than three) that Kim will be demanding. Here they are:

- An introduction to Stormy Daniels

- A Blu-Ray copy of "Rocket Man" signed by Elton John

- The book  "Dictionary of Insults"

- A five-year subscription to Oprah's special Weight Watchers' diet

- Reproductions of Dennis Rodman's tattoos on his equivalent anatomy

- A pair of Elevator shoes

- Winter Olympics gold metals for all the Nork athletes

- A lifetime supply of Courvoisier and Swiss cheese

- Ten cases of tape-worm medicine

- A Premier membership at Mar-a-Largo

Question?


My recollection of other side-of-the-world TV interviews was that there was always a few second delay between the question and the answer ... mainly because of the distance these communications needed to travel. Now, at the recent Olympics, this delay has vanished. The participants appear to be in the same room. My question is why no delay? Has satellite communication gotten that good ... or is there some time-editing trick being performed?

Any informed thoughts?

Thanks!

Goose, Goose, Gander



Olympic competitions for female athletes are on their way out. The current mania for erasing the lines between the sexes is surely going to accomplish this sorry task. Recently an "intersex" athlete from South Africa was allowed to compete and win the women's 800-meter race ... in a runaway, even though "her" testosterone levels exceeded what was previously considered acceptable ... see: Daily Caller Article. This win has, I believe, sealed the gloomy fate of the distaff side of Olympic athletics ... and possibly further.

The Court of Arbitration for Sports (CAS) has ruled that high testosterone levels don't necessarily give an athlete an advantage. This idiotic CAS ruling has opened the floodgates for gender bending to effectively eliminate female athletic competitions. Years ago the Soviet Union used to field Olympic "female" athletes who clearly were male or testosterone-enhanced and who dominated many track and field competitions. Obvious push-back helped remedy this eligibility flaw. But now the world is upside down once again. It will take only a few more Olympics before the competitions become androgynous ... with shemales winning most if not all of the medals.

Actually things might get even worse if U.S. silly gender-ID norms prevail and an athlete needs only to "self-identify" as female to compete in these events. Then, of course, it will not just be the Olympics ... women's basketball, women's golf, etc. will all gradually be usurped by men posing as women. And, unless sanity returns, female athletics on all levels will be Title 9.5ed out of existence. This obviously would present a paradox for the uber-liberal feminine side of politics. Then their dimwitedness will have solidified "what is good for the goose will forever belong to the gander."

Reality


"Reality is merely an illusion, albeit a very persistent one." -- Albert Einstein

Kafka is alive and well. He has hacked into the program in that super-mega-giga-computer that Elon Musk believes is running the software simulation hundreds of years from now that has created our current reality. To me, it seems like the world is loosing it balance ... or perhaps it is just a bunch of 22nd century programmers having some fun with our lives? Not only has our current  political process gotten bizarre, but every day events seem to present themselves as head-scratchers. In particular, here are two news items that seem to be three-sigma events.

The black Milwaukee police officer, who shot and killed a black armed thug, turns out to be a part-time rapper and classmate of the very man he shot. Except for the police uniform this would be a forgettable commonplace event in this Blatz-beer  city ... see: Powerline Blog Posting. So effectively blue pants, a blue shirt and a badge have just caused extensive rioting, arson and looting in Milwaukee ... Strange!

For another real dose of reality, the Obummer administration fessed up today ... under the cover of the Olympic's swimmers' scandal ... that it really did pay $400 million as a quid pro quo for the release of four American prisoners ... ransom that is ... see: NY Post Story. This is after many months of adamantly denying same ... including President Obummer. I guess we are all so used to these scum bags lying that they are not even shamed by this revelation ... How very sad!
