Your Sikhs today VIDEO: Introducing Curry Crunch

Most of you will know that Sikh men -- all of whom have "Singh" somewhere in their names, BTW -- have special accessories required by their faith: the turbans of course (in which they keep their hair), holy underpants, and kirpans, the little daggers they wear which are just for show, not for use in violent crimes. 

Now, courtesy of the Rt. Hon. Marx Carney, Liberal Prime Minister of Canuckistan, the Sikhs have their own religion-appropriate breakfast cereal. Watch this!

Curry Crunch is on sale NOW at fine food markets in Surrey BC and Brampton ON... and it's coming to stores in your neighbourhood.... sooner than you think!

And now, a word from our sponsor

Even-greater Debate upcoming: Pope Francis vs Jesus

"Pope Challenges Jesus To Debate On Whether All Religions Lead To God"

C'mon, you know it's gotta be from the Babylon Bee, right? The Bee is "your trusted source for Christian satire". 

Excerpt: "I heard Jesus said something bigoted about 'no one coming to the Father except through me', and ugh - that's just so exclusionary! So, I've challenged God Incarnate to a debate so I can teach Him a thing or two about how people come to God."

Serious note from Ed.: Those who don't get this are invited to read the Gospel of St. John, 14:6 - "Jesus saith to him: I am the way, the truth, and the life. No man cometh to the Father, but by me." That's what Catholics believe.

And yeah... Walt admits that he's too tired today to write anything. He's still recovering from that trip to the West Coast.

Babylon Bee stories on attempted assassination of President Trump

Walt loves the Babylon Bee, our trusted source of Christian satire since the beginning. Here, with key excerpts and links, are the Bee's latest posts on what the lickspittle media calls the recent unpleasantness in Pennsylvania. 

Trump Indicted For Inciting Assassination Attempt - Former President has been indicted by a federal judge in Pennsylvania for inciting an assassination attempt that nearly killed him. "Trump is clearly at fault for someone attempting to murder him with a rifle," said Judge Paul Stephenson. "He brought this on himself, and we will ensure justice is done."

Party That Called Trump 'Hitler' For 8 Years Shocked As Someone Tries To Assassinate Him - This is a video.

CNN: 'Clumsy Trump Hits Head On Bullet' - CNN announced today that in a shocking incident, former President Trump clumsily hit his head on a bullet, causing an unfortunate disturbance at a Pennsylvania rally.

FBI Wonders If Perhaps They’ve Been Investigating The Wrong People This Whole Time - After yet another deadly attack perpetrated by a deranged leftist, this time coming an inch away from killing President Trump, the FBI was left briefly wondering if maybe they had been investigating the wrong people.

Trump Safe, Leaving Only One Dead Candidate - Secret Service has reported that former President Donald Trump sustained only minor injuries in an assassination attempt, leaving the number of dead Presidential candidates at one. "We can now confirm there is only one dead Presidential candidate," announced Fox News anchor Laura Ingraham. "Praise the Lord that former President Trump is alright."

New (and funny!) from the Babylon Bee

Pride Month is coming to an end. Walt hopes you have learned that LGBTQ2SI+++ people are not bad people. Did you know, for instance, that

This little factoid did not come from the Babylon Bee, your trusted source for Christian news satire. According to a usually reliable expert source, who spoke on background because xe is not authorized to speak to the right-wing media, this is a True Fact.

Walt is HYUGE fan of the Bee. So much so that it's all I can do to keep reposting their biting takes on politics, religion and the sorry state of the world. Today, though, I really must share three of their pieces, which I liked for their clarity, conciseness and wit. [When are you going to learn to write like that? Ed.] Click on the links and laugh with us.

"As Pride Month Ends, Americans Look Forward To 11 More Months Of Still Pandering To LGBTQ Community" Excerpt: "Yeah, I love the LGBTQIA+ community, and I look forward to celebrating it 24/7 for the rest of the year," said one man. "Also, I don't want to get canceled. Please don't cancel me."

"Jan. 6 Committee Says Cassidy Hutchinson Told Them That She Heard Mark Meadows Say That A Secret Service Agent’s Friend’s Cousin’s Husband Once Heard That One Of Trump’s Other Aides Said She Thinks She Heard Him Say He Wanted To 'Do An Insurrection'" Excerpt: "Yes, that's totally what I heard someone say Trump said to someone who told it to them," said Cassidy Hutchinson. "He literally said 'Let's do an insurrection.' And then he threw a plate at the bust of Martin Luther King." Hutchinson then started sobbing uncontrollably.

"No One Else At Vatican Able To Receive Communion After Pelosi Drinks All The Wine" Excerpt: "I'm a bold protector of women's rights! I deserve this!" she yelled out, according to sources. "I'm a practicing Catholic! Good morning! Sunday morning!"

That pretty much covers politics, religion, and the sorry state of the world, for today. Thanks, Bee.

VIDEO: Walt congratulates Private Eye on its 60th anniversary

HAPPY ANNIVERSARY to Ian Hislop and all the clever writers and artists who've been putting out the British satirical magazine Private Eye for 60 years this month. 

Walt started reading the Eye in 1963, while recovering from surgery in London's Paddington General Hospital. The hospital closed in 1986, I can truthfully say that there'll always be a part of me in England.

Private Eye carries on, and is occasionally mentioned or quoted here as a prime example of the healthy skepticism which is the the only belief system appropriate to the state of the world today. In this video -- the first of seven, and counting -- editor Ian Hislop talks about the history of the Eye and some of the news stories and personalities they savaged during the hippy-dippy 60s.

   

A nice selection of early Eyes, mostly from the 60s, and including a pdf facsimile of Issue No. 1, is available from our friends ar Canuckjims Magazines. When you order, tell `em Walt sent ya!

Message from Woka-Cola

 

Do the makers of Coca-Cola realize they're making a big mistake with their "Be less white" campaign? Do they not realize that the folks they're pandering to drink RC? [Or grape sode! Ed.] This could very well turn into a repeat of the New Coke fiasco of April 1985!

It was then that the Coca-Cola Company, fearful of losing market share to Pepsi, introduced a new formula for the Big Drink. [That's a book title. Ed.] Known informally as New Coke, it was renamed Coke II in 1992, and was discontinued in July 2002 -- one of the biggest flops in the history of marketing.

The New Coke fiasco was based on a gross misreading of public opinion, and the reluctance of Coca-Cola drinkers to "embrace change". And here they are telling us once again that we have to get woke!

I'm severely conflicted. I am very fond of Coca-Cola. [The word "addicted" springs to mind. Ed.] But I absolutely refuse to become "less white". Indeed, doing so is an impossibility for me, both physically, mentally and emotionally. As far as I'm concerned, it's cool to be white!

What to do? I may have to learn how to make a proper mint julep and hope that will get me through the summer, or however long it takes the Coca-Cola Company to come to its senses. Meanwhile, I've sold all my shares in Coke stock. I urge those who share my sentiments to do likewise, or whatever they can to fight corporate wokeness!

Puzzle page: Which headline is "real news"?

The more I surf the net, the more websites and blogs I visit, the harder it gets to tell truth from fiction. Here are three headlines I saw this morning. Your challenge is to figure out which one(s) are "real news" and which one(s) are satire. No fair clicking on the links!

A: UK Police Apologize For Campaign Warning Brits That ‘Being Offensive’ Is A Crime 

B: Biden Administration Looks to FEMA to Help Combat Domestic Terrorism in Wake of Capitol Attack

C: John Kerry Personally Warms Texas By Flying Private Jet Around

Yes, "C" is the satirical article. Congratulations to Mr O. Leo Leahy, of Dinkytown MN, for being the first to spot the painfully obvious. Your prize is in the mail!

For those who didn't follow the links, and still think that "A" could only be satire, check out this photo.

You can't make this stuff up. And yes, truth is often funnier than fiction!

Speaking of CNN...

In my previous post, I said that no-one paid attention to Michael Moore's 2018 warning that Donald Trump would win the 2020 election because it was on the Clinton News Network. My point is that no-one takes seriously the bullshit that appears on CNN (or ABC, NBC, CBS... or, in Canada, the CBC) because everyone knows they put a politically correct liberal spin on everything.

That's the point of "14 Mostly Accurate CNN Headlines From The Last 6,000 Years Of Human History", posted yesterday on the Babylon Bee, your trusted source for Christian satire. I can't resist sharing this one, which was illustrated.

Catholics kneel in Mass protest

Ed. here. Walt telephoned from his self-imposesd exile to say that if we keep reposting such excellent pieces, he may never return. Was that a threat or a promise? Who knows? He did recommend the following piece which appeared yesterday in the Babylon Bee.

Catholics Kneel In Mass Protest,

Then Stand, Then Sit, Then Kneel, Then Stand

In a Mass protest Sunday, Catholics around the world knelt in protest of something or another, then stood up in another apparent protest against the previous protesting, then sat down—the meaning of which is unclear— then knelt again, then stood up again.

It was all very confusing to religion and political commentators.

"Maybe they're mad about Luther still? I don't know," said one Protestant analyst. "It could be racism or something, but Catholics in every country from pretty much every ethnicity are kneeling and standing and sitting, so that can't be it."

"The messaging these days is very unclear. All I know is we are protesting something," said one devout Roman Catholic. "Like, I’m not sure if the kneeling is the protest part or if it's the standing. I know when athletes kneel for the national anthem, that’s a protest, but, then again, just last week one athlete kept standing and everyone else was kneeling and that was considered a protest. It's all very ambiguous."

Unfortunately, Pope Francis added to the confusion when he gave a homily about how brown fragility is contributing to systemic racism, which is then causing both police brutality and global warming. During this time he instructed the Roman Catholic faithful around the world to repeat the cycle of kneeling, then standing, and then sitting, and then kneeling, and then standing again.

Cardinals close to Pope Francis attempted to clarify that the Pope was not saying anything about the sexual abuse scandal in the church at this time and was trying to focus his message on global warming, which he believed needed to be combatted by the repeated kneel-stand-sit protest routine each Sunday.

We trust the good, and very funny folks at the BB won't mind our republishing this. Walt reads their blog every day and recommends it highly!
