  1. Two movies starring David Janssen, both under 90 minutes long.

    The Swiss Conspiracy:

    I came across the link to this one while watching another flick on YouTube. It’s sort of in the Eurospy genre. It starts off nicely but loses its momentum about half-way through, even with actors like Ray Milland and John Ireland. Janssen plays his usual type of character.

    Birds of Prey:

    A made-for-TV flick. What makes it interesting are the helicopter chase scenes, 10 years before Blue Thunder. It wouldn’t surprise me if the part that takes place at the abandoned airfield influenced some of the BT sequences.

  5. 7 Insane Things I Just Learned About How U.S. Elections Are ‘Rigged’

    The extent to which corporate media rigs elections for Democrats has been rigorously documented since at least Tim Groseclose’s 2012 book, “Left Turn.” In that book, the political scientist concluded through data-driven analysis that media bias on average shifts the electorate 20 points to the left on a 100-point political worldview scale. Without media bias, he argued, the average American state would be as Republican-leaning as Texas or Kentucky, and those two states would be even more conservative.

    1. The DNC Controlled All Poll Watchers for 40 Years
    2. Lazy Voting Biases Elections Towards Democrats
    3. Facebook Bought Joe Biden the Election
    4. The United States Has Republican No-Go Zones
    5. The FBI Is Systemically Biased Towards the Left
    6. It’s No Longer Media Bias, It’s Media Lies
    7. Mail-In Balloting Is More Outrageous Than Anyone Can Imagine

  6. Well, a brief comment on Halloween. We had 35 wee kids at our door last night, all cute and with parents and no virus masks in site. It was good to see sane people out enjoying life.

    2. We had about 80 kids although one “ghoul” was a short old lady who’s shaking and old hands gave her away, lol.
      All the kids were very polite.
      As small as it is, its nice to give more candy than you ever received as a kid – gotta make up for the turds in the world who wouldn’t even give Charlie Brown a rock.

      1. Good grief. Where do you people live? I live in a middle class suburb, and we had about 7 kids. I assumed that the pandrmic pretty much squelched traditional Halloween.

    1. I have been surprised at the level of support for mandatory EXPERIMENTAL vaccines. One political analysis even had Trudesu winning because of O’Toole resisting mandatory vaccines for his candidates. I think this is because:
      1. People are not aware of the experimental nature of the vaccines.
      2. They really want to believe that the government has a solution for the pandemic: if everyone gets vaccinated, things will go back to normal.
      I think all of this is very misguided — media and politicians to blame– but it is getting very difficult for those who are not vaccinated to lead a normal life. I am beginning to waffle.

      1. “it is getting very difficult for those who are not vaccinated to lead a normal life”

        That’s the whole point, as far as our Dear Leaders are concerned. Please stay strong – I fully understand why you would waffle, and it depends on your situation. I am (almost) retired, and I rarely if ever eat in restaurants (in my younger days, I travelled extensively around the world, eating in restaurants morning, noon and night for weeks on end – eating out is no longer a pleasure for me).

        I am forever hopeful that someone will declare the Emperor has no clothes and the problem will go away. I suspect the trigger might be the injecting of young kids. All it needs is for young kids to start dying, or being severely damaged by the jabs and all hell will break loose.

      2. Unless you want an untimely death, with suffering, I would not waffle, if I were you. Where the neck do you live? // I’m not injected, nor is my husband. It’s not an issue where we live (Midwest). We’re retired but I freelance as a musician and don’t have problems doing that either. My husband had his pacemaker replaced today. And will have another procedure in a few weeks. Hospitals and doctors offices make you wear a mask (or shield) but not being vaccinated isn’t an issue.

  12. Blacklock reports that over a billion dollars was paid to federal civil servants to sit at home and not work, because they were afraid of the China virus.

    1. What else is new? Is it any different than being paid to sit at the office and not work?

    2. My neighbor files stuff – literally. Paper files. How the fridge do you do that at home on your computer?

      1. Yup, all those useful government receptionists on full pay with benefits. The provinces were equally generous, as were municipalities and crown corporations. Basically, half of the country was on full pay for now on, almost two years. No wonder they did not complain about Covid shut-downs! Answering e-mails from bosses at home is oh, so tedious.

        Full disclosure, I am a retired federal public servant, having working half of my life in the private sector. I am fully taxed on all benefits, but never ever during my working years did I ever approve of any of the rich union agreements. I retired with over 120 accumulated and now expired sick days, never taken, as I was not sick often, as I considered them to be an insurance policy. I watched my regional Director take all of hers before retirement for a fake tennis elbow injury. As a conservative, I was outraged. Many of my colleagues were dedicated and worked hard, but not all of them, for sure. Often, directives from the multiple layers of excessive, over-paid management created “make work” projects with no further program evaluation as to efficacy, efficiency or utility.

    1. I just got an email on that. Looks good. I am interested in the vax/ cancer connection. The throry is that the vax ( among other affects to the natural immune system) weakens cancer fighting cells. There is growing eviddnce that there may be a connection. Trozzi has some interesting stuff. It is worth subscribing to his emails.

  15. ‘Canada will put a cap on oil and gas sector emissions, Trudeau tells COP26 summit’
    https://www.cbc.ca/news/politics/trudeau-cop26-cao-oil-and-gas-1.6232639
    For anyone who was uncertain the declaration of war is now official. Kenney and the other western Premiers either have to come out fighting or resign and buy a ticket back to canada. Time to boycott canadian firms located in quebec, ontario etc., if there is a liberal in your office get him fired etc., plan a mid winter hydrocarbon strike against exports to canada, withdraw from the various boards, and fire the rcmp. One first strike is the milk board. Milk is an agricultural commodity which makes it a provincial responsibility so rejecting a federal program heavily skewed to Quebec is an easy choice. Expect to hear a definite statement from O’Toole. or not
    Wexit

    1. “Hello, Justin? Jason Kenney here. How soon do you want us to quit? Would today be too late?”

      I’ve mentioned this numerous times on SDA, but I’ve seen the devastation resulting from Prinz Dummkopf’s deliberate strangulation of the oil and gas industry. I see it every time I drive to and from my house in B. C.

      It’s a sad site to see motels and cafes which should be doing a booming business but are largely idle for lack of clientele, signified by empty parking lots. And, no, turning Alberta towns like Whitecourt or Fox Creek into centres for coding or renewable energy isn’t going to pay the bills that people in those locations still have to pay.

      I’m being quite restrained in my language but I’m filled with rage when I see what has happened.

      1. It’s a sad site to see motels and cafes

        See? I’m so angry that it’s even affected my command of English. That passage, of course, should have read:

        “It’s a sad sight to see motels and cafes”

      2. I returned from a trip last year and from Grand Cache to Grande Prairie to Fort St John there were 19 oil and gas trucks on the road including those parked for the night. There were hundreds of trucks on this stretch the previous year. I used to be one of the drivers. Now I would rather stay home than go back.

        1. During the summer, I noticed a yard just outside Fox Creek that had a lot of oilfield equipment sitting idle.

          At various points along my route, I see rigs in action and it looks like they’re drilling to see what’s down there. I’m guessing that they’re working under contracts that were signed quite some time ago and that the leases are close to expiring.

      3. I’m angry that Wretched Knothead has too great of a chance to take over again. That will be the end.
        Kenney needs to get turfed for making it possible for the Dippers and it’s union minions to totally screw us.

  17. Question instead of a tip , the graphs used in “masks dont work ” what web site do they come from ?
