There isn’t one because I’ve been too busy. Take comfort in the one piece I did manage to (un)cover:
...not at all bad for a 53-year-old granny, and nobody cares what she eats anyway:
Till next week.

Horrible, unpleasant stuff
Ugh
I was preparing this post (with a link to Driving Home For Christmas) when I read that the song’s composer Chris Rea died just a few days ago.
Sometimes, the universe has a shitty sense of humor. Although I have to say that this one made me giggle a bit:

Speaking of false advertising:
...too late for me, after a lifetime of eating toast; I guess I’ll go make me that toastie now.
...”could”. Or (much more probably) won’t.
...this one is the virus equivalent of Superman vs. Captain America. And just like the above competition, it’s fiction.
...there are wealthy people in Cheddarville? Who knew?
From the Book of Stupid Politicians:
…and likewise:
...could they be any more stupid?
#ThatsRhetorical
In Entertainment News:
...Pot, meet Mr. Kettle.
From the Dept. of Corporate Stupidity:
...to the surprise of absolutely nobody (except those geniuses at Ford).
In Crime News:
...could? COULD?
From the Dept. Of Health:
...excuse me while I go and uproot that oak tree with my bare hands.
And as always, there’s lots of

Not yet, you say?
It’s as good a place to end the news as any.
News Roundup
It’s been a busy week for criminal assholes and law enforcement this past week, to be sure.
And:
…
Now for some Terrorist Bastard News:
...fair trial, then a hanging.
...see above.
In International Terrorist Bastard News:
...of course, they’ll be released by teatime because the Kraut fuzz don’t want to be accused of “religious favoritism” or similar.
...all those Oz gun control laws worked so well, didn’t they? So of course their answer is MOAR GUN CONTROL.
Then we have a Hero:
...but if he’d shot the bastard with his own gun, of course Our Hero would be the one charged with murder while the scumbag would be charged with causing a public disturbance.
#OzLaws
But:
...nothing’s going to come of this, because Australians have become a pussified nation since Covid-19 and the lockdowns. At the first accusations of “racism”, they’ll just cringe and lick the chains that imprison them. However:
...next: OzGovt to ban sales of pigs’ heads. You heard it here first.
On to Ordinary Crime News:
...Africa wins again.
...hundreds of CCTV cameras and strict gun control laws, all working together… not.
And the usual response (from a socialist politician in California — some redundancy):
...we do indeed. Let’s start by taking a thousand-odd off the books, for starters, such as the interstate bans on concealed carry.
Some International MAGA (MASGA?) News:
...in my personal favorite Latin-American country.
And now… 
And in our journey down

...I know, I know, we’ve seen Kate Tracey before. But:
No Man Should
There’s a wonderful Afrikaans idiom which goes, “Ugly is one thing, but stupid?” (The “stupid” is pronounced “stchoopid”, which makes it all the meatier.)
Which was my first impression when espying this little offer from PSA:
“UGLY” is for the gun; “STUPID” is for the schmuck who’d pay nearly three grand (or the non-sale four-and-a-half grand) for this foul thing.
I don’t care how well it shoots (we’ll ignore the 9mm Europellet because in this case, the chambering is irrelevant); this is not a gun that any man should be carrying, or competing with, or — guess who would — showing off to his friends along with his $100,000 diamond-encrusted Hublot wristwatch and $750,000 Lamborghini Astarigida*.
Ugh. I need to get to the range and shoot some nice guns. (see below)
*colloquial Italian expression for “erection”, i.e. “stiff rod”. It’s what all modern Lamborghinis should be named.

Wait a minute: is all that 
heart-healthy stuff true? Well:
...I’d give it up, but that’s just what they want me to do. Then again:
...never mind steak dinners: let’s hear it for steak breakfasts. With eggs fried in butter. Instead of cereals.
Do it for your health. No forever chemicals.
Time for the weekly 
...gonna need even more if we’re ever to reach that “20 million deportations” goal.
…and ten guesses where he came from, and how he got in. [#FuckJoeBiden]
...did they scoop up that rancid bitch Ilhan Omar as well? No? Damn.
Still in Minnesoduh:
...in which we play the old “Guess The Perp’s Race” game again. And sadly, said victim was not Ilhan Omar.

...all together now:
In Terrorist Bastard News:
...wait: he’s not a MAGA guy? How disappointing… for the Left.
Let’s look at the Sex Offenders Registry:
...just a guess, but I’m suspecting that any other would-be rapists in that village may be thinking twice, now.
...even for the French, that might be a little extreme.
...nice to see that “Grab-A-Granny” is now a prison exercise option.
From the Dept. of Education:
...hell hath no fury like a teacher scorned.
...this is only newsworthy in that it was a male teacher doing the minor-bonking. And still in Floriduh:
...so? Can’t see the problem, here.
And for the ever-popular 
And in the third house on the right down

...have we gone Full Sydney yet? Apparently not:
And that’s all the Sydney News for now.
