On this the anniversary of the Night of the Long Knives, it's important to recognize what is happening here. It isn't hyperbole when it's accurate. - White Rose Resistance
Some history on a Saturday.
“When the Nazis came to power in 1933, the German constitution guaranteed freedom of speech and freedom of the press. Through decrees and laws, the Nazis abolished these civil rights and destroyed German democracy. Starting in 1934, it was illegal to criticize the Nazi government. Even telling a joke about Hitler was considered treachery. People in Nazi Germany could not say or write whatever they wanted.” - encyclopedia.ushmann.org
I have my coffee. Now, you may speak.

Ran across this going through my tons of stuff here at the house: for years after my folks retired in the early 90s, they traveled the States, my dad wanting to hit as many National Historic sites as possible. Along the way, they’d send post cards. This postcard was from National Park number 310 for the folks, which they visited in July of 2009.

One of my “Iraq tunes:”always liked the song, lyrically one of their better ones so it fit right in with the whole Iraq thing anyway. And the video has Monty Python’s Graham Chapman so that’s a plus in my book.

One of their lesser known tunes. Unless you have the album, that is. Feelin the CCR vibe out here on one helluva beautiful (if chilly!) evening on deck.

So, according to U.S. Senator Ron Johnson (R-Wisconsin with the “R” signifying dumbassery), windmills are killing whales. Derp.

I’d like to be in one of those chairs, enjoying a pipe or cigar with a glass of good brandy with hot tea chaser and reading a Steinbeck novel; quintessential England, Haworth in West Yorkshire. Photo by Dave Z Photography.
