This day in history….
1922: Ernest Shackleton, Antarctic Explorer and captain of the lost Endurance dies of heart attack in Grytviken, South Georgia.
The story of his and his men’s survival after the sinking of the Endurance is nothing short of phenomenal.

Ernest Shackleton’s Endurance: Ship found in Antarctic 107 years after it sank in 1915.
1931: Robert Duvall born in San Diego, California. At the 1984 Oscars, he won Best Actor for TENDER MERCIES. As you likely know, Duvall sang his character’s songs in this film.

1933: Construction began on the San Francisco Golden Gate Bridge. The bridge was completed on April 19, 1937 at a cost of $35 million.

Surprised myself last night. Our neighbors had an outdoor soup party starting at 5:30. I intended to go have a bowl and be polite a bit. Instead we had a fun time around the fire. But I did go in my husband’s Carhardt heavy coat!

Mornin, or whatever, All. I’m in my new apartment and was so tired and sore I went to bed earlier than usual. I slept great until about 3:00 when the baseboard heaters all seemed to light up and crackle, etc. I had my little noisemaker on, but had evidently turned it to shut off after an hour or so. When the baseboard heater finally got quiet, it got QUIET. I am not used to so much quiet.
Love the new place and my family is very happy about it. It has snowed night before last and we got over a foot. So it was a mess to walk in and I couldn’t even drive my car here. I had to leave it at the old apartment. We are going back today to get the rest of the stuff, and my car.
Hope you all have a great day.

Our Favorite Sundy Columnist has some thoughts on the first week of the year. And quite a busy week it was. Two major incidents on our soil where the Eff-Bee-Eye has continued to beclown themselves, along with what appears to be a doctored “video” of the “pipe-bomber”. Palace intrigue in Congress, and lots of things going on around the globe.

Also, Little Christmas, and Orthodox Christmas on January 7.
Or regarding Christmas, party like Henry VIII! (That could be a slippery slope, considering his other habits.)

Of course real whipped cream is the cat’s meow! Which likely isn’t allowed on the Keto Diet.
Screenwriters often act aggrieved and grumble about no respect. Directors and actors get all the glory, but there’d be no film without a script.
I worked for two screenwriters when first employed at Universal Studios. Great fun in the days before office computers and the Internet when the writers would assign research to their support staff and you got to bask in light of their praise when you turned something in which was of use after spending hours in the library. The good old days!

I’m sure many here remember the vaunted snail darter fish that somewhat kicked off modern-day environmentalism as we know it. Guess what? The fish never was, and never has been an endangered species. It was not properly identified back then. I guess this means we can dismantle all the things created from this???

Bourbon Street Massacre Is What ‘Globalize the Intifada’ Looks Like
Political elites have deluded themselves into thinking that the existential threat posed by radical Islamic jihad was somehow limited or contained.
By Josh Hammer – January 3, 2025
As woke illiberalism replaced live-and-let-live liberalism as the animating ideology of the American Left, the state of Israel has increasingly found itself on the outs. Never mind that modern Israel was founded by, and for three decades politically dominated by, a bunch of left-wing socialists. Never mind that Harry Truman, an iconic liberal Democratic president, became the first world leader to recognize the fledgling Jewish state a mere 11 minutes after it announced its independence in 1948. None of that history matters on the Left anymore, after wokeism supplanted liberalism.
