OMG


"Brutal!  Horrific!  Disgusting!"  These are just a few of the words coming out of the mouths of certain people, as they try to come up with adjectives, adverbs and any other part of speech that could possibly describe their reactions to one P. Diddy beating his then girlfriend, Cassie Ventura.  And these are P. Diddy's friends.  Or they used to be.  They want you to understand how they could never imagine anything like this.  Like never.  Even if they've known him for decades and went to his infamous parties.

Now enquiring minds want to know how this video surfaced?  Who had it?  Who leaked it?  Well one theory is the Feds leaked it and they got a hold of it when they raided P. Diddy, Puffy, Puff Daddy, Diddy, Love, Sean Combs's houses?  That would mean he'd kept a copy of it all these years.  Why would someone do that?  Same reason you have videos and pictures of stuff.  So you can relive it.  This would make him, one, sick bleep.  The other theory is the guy from the hotel who sold it to P. Diddy, Puffy, Puff Daddy, Diddy, Love, Sean Combs, kept a copy of his own.  Either way, it spells doom for P. Diddy, Puffy, Puff Daddy, Diddy, Love, Sean Combs.

Then there was his apology video that went over like a lead balloon.  People are scratching their heads over that one, when they're not trying to come up with adjectives, adverbs and other parts of speech, to convey their amazement of it all.

Then there are the fall from grace crowd.  They can't fathom the nature of the man who had it all.  Well let's just put a little perspective on it.  P. Diddy with his half a dozen akas...  Hey we like that handle 'The Man With A Half A Dozen AKAs'.  Reminds us of 'The Man In The Iron Mask', as he might wind up in Prison for a long, long time.  Only the Three Musketeers aren't around to get him out.  But 'The Man With A Half A Dozen AKAs', is just your garden variety Socio/Psychopath, who happened to make a few bucks in the music business.  He'll be a trivia question on Jeopardy in the next decade and none of the Contestants will get it right.  And, a few years after that, no one will remember his name.  Even if he had a half a dozen of them.

Quiz Time!


Every once in a while we like to run a little quiz just to see if people have been paying attention.  Information, as the Know It All's like to remind us, is essential to a Democracy.

Question 1.  Donald John Trump former President of The United States, is most like...

A. Adolf Hitler

B. Davy Crockett

C. Maury Povich

D. Jerry Springer

Question 2.  At the Met Gala...

A. Kim Kardashian had her waist tucked in so hard, she looked like a cartoon character.

B. Zendaya appeared twice in two separate outfits.

C. Doja Kat showed up in her bed sheet or something that looked like it.

D. None of the above.

E. All of the above.

Question 3. Kristi Noem Governor of South Dakota is out of consideration as Trump's VP because...

A. She's has no relevant experience.  She was the Congressperson from South Dakota but South Dakota is one of those states that have more Senators than Congresspersons and no one ever needed her vote on anything.  Besides, there's not much to do there or be in charge of, even if you are the Governor.

B. She shot her Dog.

C. She's the author of books that actually sold copies and Presidential or Vice Presidential candidates are not supposed to write books that sell copes.  See Hillary Clinton.

D. She told Biden to shoot his Dog.

E. None of the above. 

Question 4.  King Charles III will not see his son Prince Harry during Harry's visit to Great Britain for the Invictus games because...

A. The King is too busy.

B. The Royal family are a bunch of racists.

C. Prince Harry and his wife Megan's tell all Neflix series and Harry's book insulted the Royal family so much, that none of them want anything to do with him.  This is a big Diss.

D. None of the above.

E. All of the above.

Answers

Question 1.  Correct Answer D, Jerry Springer.  Both had long running T.V. shows and both held elective office.  Jerry was once the Mayor of Cincinnati and Trump POTUS.  Jerry's tag line was.  "Take care of yourselves and each other."  Trump's was.  "You're fired!"  If you picked D give yourself 25 points, as you will for every correct answer.  However there have been so many people comparing Trump to Hitler and you've probably heard it so many times, that if you picked A, Hitler, give yourself 5 points.  No, you get no points for Davy Crockett.  Yes he too held elective office but there was no TV back in the early 1800's.  And yes Maury has a TV show with a tag line.  "You are the Father! or You are not the Father!"  But he's never held elective office.  And no Hitler, did not have a TV show, even if he had a tag line.  "Heil Hitler!" 

Question 2. Correct Answer E.  All of the above.  If you missed this question, you just weren't paying attention at all.  When Democracy dies, it is all your fault.

Question 3.  Correct Answer B.  All the Know It All's think it's because she shot her Dog.  Who are we to argue?  But some of the other choices make sense, so if you picked A, C or D, give yourself 10 points.

Question 4. Correct Answer C.  Not only won't his father or brother see him, no one in the entire Royal family even has a room for him.  Harry is going to have to stay in a a hotel.  This was one big Diss and no one knows how to Diss better, than the Brits.  Hell, they invented it.

Scoring.  Normally we tell you what your score means but this quiz was a little tough in that some of the choices were not so clear.  But those of you who got a 100, you are winners!  You know what's going on and when democracy dies, it won't be your fault.

'Blowin' In The Wind'*


We've been watching all these demonstrations all over the many college campuses of America and we have a few questions.  Where do they all get these tents from?  It's just kind of weird how these people show up complete with tents and such.  If you are a Protestor do you have to buy them before they let you join in?  Like it's  part of the costume you have to have, along with the flags, the T-shirts and the placards emblazoned with the  slogans?  Or are these the kind of people who go camping on the weekends?  We mean, when they're not protesting?

And as we pointed out in a previous article, the fighting has commenced, so why are they here?  Why aren't they over there?  If not in Gaza or at least Lebanon?  What if during the Civil War a whole bunch of Confederates pitched tents on college campuses and walked around with signs like 'Stay Out of Our Business', 'We Need Our Slaves' and 'From The Mason Dixon Line To The Rio Grande'?

Why are we the only ones asking these questions?  Isn't that what this whole journalism thingy is all about?  Where are the Talking Heads, The Cognoscenti Of The Known World and the many pretty faces of WWTMSM aka What Was The Main Stream Media?  Why does it seem that all they do is repeat the talking points, the slogans and the catch phrases of the participants in whatever hoopla, they are covering?  The only question they ever seem to ask nowadays, centers around do you hate Trump or Biden?  And or, how much do you hate Trump or Biden?

Maybe it's like that old protest song of years ago told us.  'The answer, my friend, is blowin' in the wind.  The answer, is blowin' in the wind.'*
