A vain, cynical, oily clown

In other words, the perfect choice of our benighted New York brethren as one of their senators: "Chuck Schumer is fighting to prevent Hamas from being destroyed."

We desperately need to wrestle the wheel out of the hands of the lunatics running ruining our foreign policy.

Spring is almost here!

Time to prepare.

Tchaikovsky's lovely "Waltz of the Flowers", from the Nutcracker.

Bonus video!  Who knew there were so many types of clarinets?

Haw!

The family of late Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg is up in arms about some of the most recent recipients of a leadership award that was established in her name. 

They are interesting choices.

...four recipients of the award initially founded to honor women are men — Elon Musk, media kingpin Rupert Murdoch, actor Sylvester Stallone and Michael Milken, a financier who The New York Times referred to as “the face of corporate greed in the 1980s.” The only woman to be honored is Martha Stewart.

I'm a little disappointed. Well...maybe Richard Petty will win next year.

A man's known by the company he keeps

And by the company he doesn't.

Sunday funnies









Dude. That cat's a psycho.


The really great thing about performance art is you can't hang it on the wall.

Nice to have a hobby...I guess.

Ok, so, when is Abdullah going to reciprocate by joining me for the stations of the cross?

"Italy: Catholic Diocese Urges Faithful to Participate in Islamic Prayers During Ramadan".

Another Ramadan is upon us, and as is always the case, the eager-to-be-fooled infidels are out in force. A Catholic diocese in Italy has just called upon priests and laypeople to seek out opportunities to participate in Ramadan observances, as a gesture of goodwill toward Muslims. When will Muslim leaders tell Muslims to participate in Christian worship to show friendship with Christians? Don’t hold your breath.

Instead of a sappy, one-way ecumenicism, it might be time for the renewal of an old-school  open and frank exchange of ideas between Catholics and Muslims.
