First, They Lied About the Range . . .
There is a creepy consanguinity between the marketing and selling of the “masks” and then “vaccines” – and the marketing and selling of electric vehicles. It makes you wonder whether there might be a relationship . . . They arose as the “solution” to supposedly dire problems that – we were told – required immediate, right now amelioration. No time to wait and see – or even think before we’re… → Read More
Have Yourself an Awkward Little Christmas . . .
Christmas will never be the same again. For the same reason that America will never be the same again. Millions of us will never be able to look upon some of our fellow Americans – including some of our friends and family members – as we once did, ever again. The ones who turned their backs on us – and worse – for questioning what we rightly identified as a mass hysteria they embraced. Who… → Read More
The Mafia Contra the Other Mafia
I have been reading Sammy “The Bull” Gravano’s book, Underboss. Gravano was just that – underboss – second-in-command of the Gambino “family” of Cosa Nostra, also known as the mafia; also known as organized crime. As distinct from legalized crime. He worked for John Gotti, the “Dapper Don,” who was boss of the Gambino family back in New York, back in the ’80s. Gravano ended up turning on his… → Read More
Hedging Bets
Toyota didn’t get to be the world’s largest automaker by not selling cars. It isn’t surprising, therefore, that Toyota is the only major car company that hasn’t “committed” – as it is styled – to building cars that most people don’t want to buy. Those being electric cars. It is neither here nor there whether you believe – exactly the right word – that it is necessary to “transition” to electric… → Read More
The Temporary Reprieve
The Biden Thing and those pulling its strings wants you to think things are better – just in time for the midterms – because the cost of a gallon of gas is not as high as it was. For now. Outside of California, most of us are “only” paying about $3.60 or so per gallon . . . for the moment. The idea being to get people to focus on that rather than on what they were paying before the Biden Thing… → Read More
Orange Apologia?
Whatever your opinion of Alex Jones, the opinion he expressed the other day about the Orange Man is difficult to argue with – because it’s always hard to argue with someone when they’re right. What Alex said was that Orange Man must repudiate the “vaccines” he was either duped into “warp speeding” into existence or was complicit in “warp speeding” into existence. If he repudiates them, it will… → Read More
'More Stringent Measures'
The Little Doctor now says “much more stringent measures” should have been imposed on “asymptomatic people” – which of course means on everyone – back in 2020. This is, as Mr. Spock used to say, absolutely fascinating – coming from a man who is himself an “asymptomatic” spreader. An actual one – as opposed to an asserted one. In that he actually has, by his own admission, gotten the “virus” –… → Read More
What to Know About Going Old . . . Before You Do!
Really old cars are becoming popular again – not so much because they are collectible but rather because they are practical. Some are capable of exceeding the highest-mileage figures posted by any new car – because they are much more efficient than any new car, being so much lighter. None of them are “connected” cars. All of them are vastly simpler cars than any new car, which means that even… → Read More
Empty Houses
In the Before – the years prior to what has been styled the “pandemic” (which it was, in the sense that metastatic hypochondria spread like cooties at a ’70s key party) when a house sold it was usually occupied shortly thereafter by the people who bought it. In the After – our now – when houses sell they often remain empty – sometimes for years. Which makes one wonder about who bought them. And… → Read More
The Wagen That’s Not for the Volk Anymore
Some people think that those who’ve been “vaccinated” are already dead – because they will be, soon. Could the same be true of Volkswagen? The manufacture of cars for the people – it’s literally what Volkswagen means, in German – announced the other day that it will stop making about 60 percent of the models in its current inventory, all of them the combustion-engined ones that people can afford… → Read More
'Assistance' Technology
Idiot proofing is now out in the open. It’s just called something else – to make the idiots feel better about it. The car manufacturers style this idiot-proofing “assistance” technology – usually “advanced.” Sometimes, “intelligent” – because they regard you as not. There is nothing wrong with seeking assistance when you need it. Disabled people, for instance, often need assistance getting up… → Read More
“Hating” EVs
I am regularly accused of “hating” electric cars – in the same way I and others who opposed forcing anyone to take a “vaccine” they’d prefer not to take is smeared as being “anti-vax.” To be fair, I do dislike electric cars. Chiefly because I like cars more than I like appliances, which is what electric cars are, fundamentally. Because they are all fundamentally the same thing, which tends to… → Read More
It’s Beginning To Look a Lot Like…
It’s important to be careful about assuming the worst – as opposed to those who purvey the worst. Like the doctor who doesn’t practice medicine. But even if it’s not the worst, it’s already pretty bad. Have a look at this video; stay with it. The first 30 seconds or so – which assume the worst – isn’t the thing to focus on. Watch the rest, which is hard to avoiding drawing some pretty awful… → Read More
When Questioning ‘The Science’ Becomes a ‘Sickness’
It is bad enough that contrary facts are labeled “misinformation” by “fact checkers” who recently admitted they’re in the business of offering opinions and thus, cannot be held liable for smearing fact-providers as peddlers of “misinformation.” It will get worse when to utter contrary opinion is taken as evidence of mental illness – by the same “fact checkers.” They already have a name for it –… → Read More
The Right Speed Limit Is Your Limit!
People will never agree what the speed limit should be – which you’d think would raise questions about why there are speed limits at all. It’s an odd business – this top-down imposition of one-size-fits-all when it’s obvious it fits almost no one. Even the most ardent defender of speed limits is usually guilty of “speeding” – i.e., he at least occasionally drives a little bit faster than… → Read More
How the New Mileage Tax Will Get Your Old Car Off the Road
Joe Biden and the Republicans – without whom Joe Biden could not have done it – may have just outlawed cars that can’t be tracked without actually outlawing them, per se. Instead, they will be regulated away – the new trick in government’s dirty bag thereof. It might have caused a ruckus to propose a law outlawing older vehicle without Onboard Diagnostic (OBD II) electronic data collection… → Read More
Unsafe and Ineffective
It’s turning out – at Warp Speed – that the “vaccine” isn’t even effective and forget safe. People who’ve been Jabbed are getting sick – or at least, they are “testing positive” for the Epsilon Semi Moron or Plaid or Delta Blues “variant” of the sickness far too many people are obsessed with avoiding, even if the putative cure is worse than the possibility of sickness. In Israel, for instance,… → Read More
Why Americans Are Broke
Remember when trucks were simple – and inexpensive? They still are both – just not here. And ironically, they are built by the same company that will only sell you an expensive and complicated one, here. General Motors. Here, it will sell you a Chevy Colorado for $25,200 to start. This is the least expensive new truck GM sells in the United States. In China, GM sells a truck called the Zhengtu… → Read More
The Abolition of Gasoline
The best way to force something onto people who don’t want it is to force what they do want off the market. Examples of this include the forced retirement of the best automotive refrigerant ever developed – Freon – which cools faster and deeper than the replacements that were forced onto the market by forcing Freon off the market – in the name of the “ozone hole” but in actuality because of… → Read More
When Your Vote Doesn’t Matter
I spoke yesterday with Bill Meyer, who hosts the Bill Meyer Show in Oregon. We talked, among other things, about the explosive fact that in states like VA and CA, a geographically tiny canker sore of urban density has achieved almost unassailable political control over the entire state. For example, in my state – Virginia – 85 percent of the state, by geography, voted for the Orange Man but… → Read More
