All I want to know is, when did Christina Hendricks turn into Kathy Griffin?
At least the important bits stayed put.

Uneven Surfaces
I see that the Climate Loonies have been playing their little games again, this time in Germany:
Climate activists blocked flights at two German airports for several hours Thursday in protest against the most polluting form of transportation, and to demand tougher government action to reduce greenhouse gas emissions.
The group Last Generation said several of its members entered the grounds of Hamburg Airport around 6 a.m. (0400 GMT) and glued themselves to the runway on the first day of the school vacation in the north German city.
Dozens of flights were canceled and 10 arrivals had to be diverted to other airports, Germany’s dpa news agency reported.
Well, you can’t have airliners taking off over these human speedbumps, of course, so I propose some remedial action, toot sweet:
Or, if that tears up the surface of the runways too much, there’s always this option:
That’s called “crowd control with a schmear”.
Even better, we could use those as practice runs for bigger protests.
Just Stop Oil are planning their most annoying action yet as the eco-zealots said they will ‘paralyze London’ with slow-marching columns 10 times bigger than anyting they have previously done.
The climate activists are set to travel to London from all over the UK to disrupt the capital during rush-hour on Monday.
I’m thinking that crushed bone would make an excellent pothole filler.
3 Honest Questions
Okay, here are three things in the current Zeitgeist that I need answers to.
- Am I the only one who gets the creeps every time I see this little fegeleh‘s pic?
- If the Stupidest Person In Congress (that would be Sheila Jackson-Lee of Texas) has admitted that she wouldn’t be where she is without affirmative action, does that not condemn the whole policy right there?
- Am I the only one who can’t watch a video of Biden mumbling, stumbling, stammering his way through a public appearance and making an absolute fool of himself? I mean, I actually cringe at the spectacle and have to turn it off.

Remembering Jane
I see that 60s icon Jane Birkin has died. Of course, to many she’s best remembered as the other half of the duet with Serge Gainsbourg on Je T’Aime, Moi Non Plus (which could never be released today, and is only SFW if you work at Playboy or Penthouse). Here’s the duo:
…and here she is, solo:
Classic Sixties, she was.
R.I.P.
Monday Funnies
It is, it is. And so:
Sing it, Scott McKenzie:
Aaaah, Ted: still getting giggles after all these years…
And here are some single moms — or maybe they’re not moms, or even single — who knows?
So let’s all head off into the week:
Classic Beauty: Tamara Desni
I’ve never seen any of her silent- or talkie movies, but I have to admit that I am fascinated by this willowy Brit actress (born in Germany to a Russian mother: why not British?).
She even appeared in a commercial — some time, I suspect, before it became popular.
Classically beautiful.
