useless info that is certain not to make you feel any better for knowing

A tourist asked by the officer in passport control at Athens airport:
What is your nationality?
Tourist replies:
German.
The officer then asks: Occupation?
Tourist replies:
No. Only visiting.

It’s been a crappy month so that’s my contribution to humor for the rest of the year. Maybe.

Don’t wanna bore readership with health issues but my posting has been nil to none with mostly none of late.  Wife still having a problem which naturally affects me cos I love her and hate to see her hurting.  As for myself, I’ve had a short spell of something I think was self induced.  In an effort to get rid of one pain I went about creating another which has plagued me for a week now but I must be better since, at last, for now, I’m back.  Yawn. I heard that! 

Now just cos I’ve been away in a manner of speaking, should not imply that I haven’t been reading the papers.  And the goofiness always manages to get to me.  Sometimes anger and sometimes a laff but almost always frustration, because I can’t take in how easily educated people let themselves be taken in by this world of the politically correct.  Many of them are I know way smarter then I am, or anyway, they’ve had enough on the ball to pass college exams. Or maybe they’ve excelled in easy courses.

There have been some suggestions I have read by these people like, and I kid you not, the suggestion to drop the terms husband and wife as those terms are dated here in the 21st century and haven’t the same meaning they once did.  HUH?  Yeah, the suggestion is that the word “partners” be used in place of.
I read that weeks before April 1st. Just thought I should mention that.

Then of course another write up on the suggestion to let boys wear skirts, because clothing that is too gender specific can cause distress.  A commissioner for kiddies says that with regard to school uniforms, young ppl with “gender variant issues” who are forced to wear gender specific uniforms could be in violation of the UN Convention on the “Rights of the Child.”
OK, I see what he’s saying.  Little boys and girls who somehow believe they aren’t really little boys and girls but instead are little girls and boys deep inside, will somehow be harmed by being made to wear a uniform that doesn’t fit with how they see themselves.
I have a lot on my plate right now so I’ll let you figure that one out all on your own.  I know you can.

Then there’s something else with the kids in mind.  In one school anyway and forgive me but I have lost my link and notes, even the hard copy I had. So from memory now, apparently kids should not be encouraged to form the kind of friendships that will lead to emotional distress and hurt.  Hmmm. Kay, so far a parent reading that might well say yes. You know, like the wrong influences at school that your child may encounter.  But the advice went beyond that. No longer must kids develop friendships where the friend is referred to as, “A best friend.” Kids should not it is claimed by some dim light, have a best friend, because either due to a falling out or a move away or illness, accident or the worst, losing someone regarded as a best friend will emotionally damage a child and cause much hurt.  I could never in my wildest imaginings make that up.  And just to give you an idea of how goofy our world is, not just goofy but actually unreasonable as well, take a look at this letter to an editor of the Mail.  No link so I copied out what the person wrote. 

MIND CONTROL

WHAT is it with our schools?  First they aren’t allowed to have “a best friend,” only groups.
Now, at my grandson’s school in Kent, the words ‘boyfriend’ and ‘girlfriend’ are taboo.

When he and two friends were heard saying these words, they were kept in class.  They’re eight years old. Is this brainwashing?

And as if that is not bizarre enough, what do ya make of this?

A drug dealer served five years in prison and was to then be deported. But first, he dumped his wife and his children for another woman. With me so far? Good.
Because it turns out the govt. can not deport this fellow because he has “family rights.” Yeah but … he deserted both wife and kids.
Yes. But he now has a child by the mistress, AND, an immigration appeal found that an earlier tribunal did not take into consideration the “detrimental effect” deporting him back to Jamaica would have on his mistress and their child. 
Then why not send them all to Jamaica to keep him company?
It isn’t as if there’s a shortage of that minority group in this country.
Stay Tuned

Not that very many people ever read this far down, but this blog was the creation of Allan Kelly and his friend Vilmar. Vilmar moved on to his own blog some time ago, and Allan ran this place alone until his sudden and unexpected death partway through 2006. We all miss him. A lot. Even though he is gone this site will always still be more than a little bit his. We who are left to carry on the BMEWS tradition owe him a great debt of gratitude, and we hope to be able to pay that back by following his last advice to us all:

1. Keep a firm grasp of Right and Wrong
2. Stay involved with government on every level and don't let those bastards get away with a thing
3. Use every legal means to defend yourself in the event of real internal trouble, and, most importantly:
4. Keep talking to each other, whether here or elsewhere

It's been a long strange trip without you Skipper, but thanks for pointing us in the right direction and giving us a swift kick in the behind to get us going. Keep lookin' down on us, will ya? Thanks.
