- 301Posted by mccannon01 3 weeks, 6 days ago to [Ask the Gulch] As a youngster we didn't receive shots...I had Measles, Mumps,,Chicken Pox, Whpoping Cough and Croup. At school we received shots for Typhoid and Smallpox. My smallpox shot never 'took'. I'm 89 years old and still here.I remember getting polio, smallpox, and measles vaccinations but that was all. My smallpox never "took", either. I got the shot but no scar showed up. Glad I did not get the mRNA jab, which isn't a vaccine.

- 304Posted by mccannon01 3 weeks, 6 days ago to IN THE MEME TYME SUNDAY PAPER EDITIONsAgreed about the word gay, which is now forever tainted. The word was a happy word. I grew up with a good friend with the last name Gay before the word was so terribly "repurposed". The famous fighter pilot who was shot down and rescued during the battle of Midway was George Gay and then there's the Enola Gay...
I liked the Texas John Slaughter series, too!
We used to mock the theme from Davy Crockett (Fess Parker series), which I also really liked:
Born on a mountaintop in Tennessee,
Cutest little baby you ever did see,
Shot the nurse, killed the doctor,
escaped from prison in a helicopter!
Davy! Davy Crockett! King of the wild frontier! - 305Posted by $ 25n56il4 3 weeks, 6 days ago to [Ask the Gulch] As a youngster we didn't receive shots...I had Measles, Mumps,,Chicken Pox, Whpoping Cough and Croup.

- 307You're very welcome.
I enjoy it, kinda like that architect in, The Fountainhead. - 308Ancient memory just got triggered. Way back when as a little kid there's a Disney character with a song I used to mock the hell out of. You know, in a little kid's kinda way.
First, here's the song~~https://www.bing.com/search?q=texas+j...
Now here's my mocking version. To wit, "Texas John Slaughter made 'em do as they oughta for if they didn't they died. (Then I'd scream). THEY DIED! THEY DIED! FOR IF THEY DIDN'T THEY DIED! BWAHAHA! KILL! KILL! KILL THEM ALL! MAKE 'EM ALL DIE! BWAHAHAHAHAHA!"
Oh, and another thing. During World War 2, General Patton made sure to tell news people that his two Colt 45 handles were made of ivory.
He said only queers would use pearl-handled revolvers. Homosexuals began to call themselves gay when I~~born during 1947~~was old enough to read a newspaper editorial bemoaning how the new use of "gay" slighted volumes and volumes of fine poetry previously written. - 309Posted by mccannon01 4 weeks ago to IN THE MEME TYME SUNDAY PAPER EDITIONsSmilin', dino!
Lots of oldies are fun songs. Do "they" make fun songs anymore? Recall Flying Purple People Eater, Yellow Polka Dot Bikini and some others. - 310Posted by katrinam41 4 weeks ago to Remember the Names “. . . it’s subversion and nothing about it is accidental. it’s a well worn playbook to use the democratic institutions of a high trust state to destroy a civilization.”"Hawksbill Station" is a sci-fi novel about what happens when an anti-government protest becomes irrevelant. Imprisonment by one-way time travel is the dictatorship's solution to overcrowded prisons full of festering rebellion, men to one period, women to another, so little revolutionaries won't be bred, and so far back that things haven't even crawled out of the seas yet. What a wonderful place to send certain unhappy people.
- 311Posted by katrinam41 4 weeks ago to IN THE MEME TYME SUNDAY PAPER EDITIONsSobering Sunday, my friend. Those little levens of humer made your weekend bake just the perfect snack. Thanks, Carl, for putting so much time into these gems👍
- 312Posted by katrinam41 4 weeks ago to IN THE MEME TYME SUNDAY PAPER EDITIONsI am also just 6.4 years from 80. The America I grew up in has been buried under so much s!*t that it's nearly vanished. Common sense must win if this nation is to survive. With you all the way, dear dino.
- 313This little bit more added to that raw from me dino's ancient memory~~
"Thar's Indians waitin' out there.
Just waitin' tuh take my hair.
PLEASE MR. CUSTER I DON'T WANNA GO!!!"
(At some point you can almost hear the dude crying).
Also found a chorus hooting "Woo-woo-woo!" off and on in the background most amusing.
Also recall as a kid howling along with that "Werewolves Of London" song.
Also in top of an also, I once as a kid cracked up a female dental assistant doing howls while a dentist was trying to examine my teeth.
A~wooooooo!
Decided to look werewolves up~~https://music.youtube.com/watch?v=lh0... - 314Posted by mccannon01 4 weeks ago to IN THE MEME TYME SUNDAY PAPER EDITIONsHad to +1 the Alley Oop reference! Also, "Please, Mr. Custer, I don't want to go..." LOL
- 315Posted by mccannon01 4 weeks ago to Performative virtue-signaling has become a threat to higher edAccording to this it looks like the younger generation IS learning to read between the lines of BS.
- 316Hey, Alley Oop, tell that doctor what's-his-name to crank up his time machine. No, we ain't going far. Just back to my childhood's past.
- 317Posted by mccannon01 4 weeks ago to IN THE MEME TYME SUNDAY PAPER EDITIONsHint: They taste like various lightly flavored sugar spread on a hard crust containing a very thin layer of jam, LOL. Yummy, especially hot!
- 318Posted by freedomforall 4 weeks ago to Vaccines in the News LatelyJeff Childers had some commentary today on Moderna's stock price:
https://www.coffeeandcovid.com/p/the-...
(It's the last of 3 issues he wrote about today.)
"Last week, Moderna issued a corporate press release announcing the results —interim and not peer-reviewed— of its ongoing Phase Three trial of a “personalized” mRNA product aimed at treating late-stage melanoma patients. These are folks who’ve already been treated for skin cancer with other treatments like radiation and chemo. Moderna claimed that some undisclosed percentage of the patients enjoyed a reduced risk of recurrence or longer survival periods.
It’s not new, though you can’t tell that from the Journal’s article. Moderna pitched this exact cancer vaccine to CNBC in January of 2020. The ‘breakthrough’ is older than the pandemic that made the company famous.
Barring delays, the Phase 3 study isn’t projected to finish until September of 2030. The public announcement provided no adverse-event dataset, detailed biodistribution figures, mRNA persistence measurements, or all-cause mortality numbers. “The trial data will be shared at a coming conference,” the Journal mentioned, as an aside.
But the stock still went crazy.
Charlotte Kuperwasser, a cancer biologist from Tufts Medical School, tweeted, “Moderna and Merck announce their personalized mRNA cancer vaccine succeeded in a Phase 3 trial. No data presented, no paper published—but apparently the stock market has already completed peer review.” Cardiologist Dr. Joseph Marine observed, “These corporations have learned how to play the medical-scientific establishment like a Stradivarius.”
The criticism was earned and perfectly justified. "
AND the lying scum at Moderna are calling it a "vaccine" even though it doesn't prevent any disease, which is (was?) required to qualify as a vaccine. - 319Posted by JakeOrilley 4 weeks, 1 day ago to IN THE MEME TYME SUNDAY PAPER EDITIONsYes, they are. Like Dino, did not expect to have this in my lifetime.

- 323Posted by $ allosaur 4 weeks, 1 day ago to Fake News 'Journalists' Love The Deep State. The Fourth Estate is constitutionally illiterate..Me dino and my Troy State University degree in journalism was a small newspaper reporter for seven years all during the Seventies. Did "straight news" such as police (crimes, trials, accidents and other bad stuff) and happier feature stories mostly in Alabama. My editors worried about politics.
Kept trying to move up to major newspapers after gaining experience for a couple of years.
Thought my big break FINALLY came during my fifth year when a managing editor for The Montgomery Advertiser (where they had keyboards and computer screens) PROMISED me I'd be the "police beat" reporter at the end of a hiring freeze.
I'm busy typing away on a mechanical typewriter when my small time publisher and editor walked by, saying, "You can forget about The Montgomery Advertiser."
How the hell would he know that? In a state of shock, I went straight home and called an Advertiser employee I knew there to learn that an editor was mad at the managing editor for not hiring me but someone else with zero experience straight out of college.
(My current boss had once been president of the Alabama Press Association and that day I learned how high "a good ole' boy" system twixt editors that had been holding me back actually reached). Can tell more about that if you care.
By the way, Jimmy Carter was in office when I finally comprehended the writing that had already been on the wall. Walls?
Eventually I changed professions, got a job with the state and now enjoy a lifelong retirement. Worked at a state prison for 21 years. Still received some threats but not by cowards using a phone before I had caller I.D.
A corrections officer I last saw before he got killed on duty relieved me on my shift that same day. That was during 1983. I still stuck around until 2003 quite sick of that place.
To hell with "good ole' boy" newspaper bosses and especially the squishy commie squids of Fake News. At least I never wrote any of their simpering Schiff. - 324Posted by CaptainKirk 4 weeks, 1 day ago to Remember the Names “. . . it’s subversion and nothing about it is accidental. it’s a well worn playbook to use the democratic institutions of a high trust state to destroy a civilization.”The government doesn't have to go door to door.
They just have to wait until Gen-X Dies off.
I wonder if the Clot-Shot wasn't part of the plan. Kill off the boomers, force their money to hit the streets and be taxed. Reduce Social Security, and destroy the memories of how it was supposed to be.
Slowly raise every successive generation with the lies they need them to believe, to control them.
Keep them dumb, and separated. - 325Posted by freedomforall 4 weeks, 1 day ago to Remember the Names “. . . it’s subversion and nothing about it is accidental. it’s a well worn playbook to use the democratic institutions of a high trust state to destroy a civilization.”I fear the average armed and willing American has a median age of 60+.
