Don't give up on hope. disloyal party members are ruining it for everyone in the Liberal Party. They support awful Turnbull corruptions of policy, rather than sensible conservative policy. And it detracts from good government. ALP government is worse, as QLD shows. QLD is going to elections soon. But Malcolm Turnbull has to leave Australia to give the local Liberals a boost in Queensland. I had thought that the voters had threaded the needle when they killed the Liberal majority without electing ALP. But it looks like disloyal Liberal members will support Turnbull to oblivion.
Bad ALP administration causes problems. Tonight at Springvale Railway, waiting to catch a train to Dandenong, a loudspeaker message said that all trains between Dandenong and Oakley were cancelled and patrons would have to catch buses. Before I got to the stairs, the train pulled in and I caught it.
Waiting for the bus at Dandenong. Police were talking to a Sudanese guy who sounded loud and belligerent. He was apparently tossed off a bus which he reckoned was unfair. He accused the police of taking sides after they asked if he knew the guy who pushed him. He named the bus route. They asked if he was drunk, and he got more outraged, saying he was a student wanting to go home. He said he came from Zimbabwe and he liked Mugabe. And the police should go to Africa where Mugabe would talk with them. He kept mouthing off as he caught the same bus I caught.
I was told, in response to yesterday's posting on a faux wikipedia article alleging a massacre the press never heard of that Winston Churchill had given 78% of Palestine Mandate to the Saudis. I can't find details of that. Churchill lost the election after WW2 and so British Labor handled partition in 1948, causing bloodshed still seen today. More detail regarding Churchill and Jews can be found at this site. Jews don't want Jordan. They want Israel, including Jerusalem.
Only one pitcher did not give up a home run in Game 5 of MLB World Series between LAD and winning Astros. President George W Bush. It was a magnificent, see sawing game. It finished 13 to 12 in the tenth innings.
Jingle bell, jingle bell, jingle bell rock
Jingle bells swing and jingle bells ring
Snowin' and blowin' up bushels of fun
Now the jingle hop has begun
Jingle bell, jingle bell, jingle bell rock
Jingle bells chime in jingle bell time
Dancin' and prancin' in Jingle Bell Square
In the frosty air
What a bright time, it's the right time
To rock the night away
Jingle bell time is a swell time
To go glidin' in a one-horse sleigh
Giddy-up jingle horse, pick up your feet
Jingle around the clock
Mix and a-mingle in the jinglin' feet
That's the jingle bell rock
Jingle bell, jingle bell, jingle bell rock
Jingle bell chime in jingle bell time
Dancin' and prancin' in Jingle Bell Square
In the frosty air
What a bright time, it's the right time
To rock the night away
Jingle bell time is a swell time
To go glidin' in a one-horse sleigh
Giddy-up jingle horse, pick up your feet
Jingle around the clock
Mix and a-mingle in the jinglin' feet
That's the jingle bell
That's the jingle bell
That's the jingle...

How can we, like Jupurrurla, use our resourcefulness and generosity to share the abundance we discover, ensuring it strengthens our communities and honors our connection to our environment?
Below is an expanded and vivid retelling of Jupurrurla and the Forty Shadows, reimagining Ali Baba and the Forty Thieves as a Warlpiri Dreamtime story set in the Tanami Desert. This version enriches the sensory landscape, deepens Warlpiri cultural elements, and aligns with the structure of Ali Baba while incorporating echoes of The Story of the Three Bears (e.g., an intruder entering a forbidden space, consequences of greed, and a moral resolution). The narrative emphasizes Warlpiri values of kinship, respect for the land, and wisdom over greed, creating a story that resonates with both the original tale and the desert’s spiritual heartbeat.

In the radiant Tanami Desert, where spinifex spears glow like embers under a sun that scorches the earth, the red dunes hum with the songs of the...

English Folk Song: The Wanderer and the Three Goannas
Lyrics (Based on the Warlpiri Story):
(Verse 1)
In the Tanami’s glow, where the spinifex sways,
Jupurrurla roamed through the desert’s warm days.
Her curious heart found a camp in the shade,
Where three goannas’ coolamons a feast had arrayed.
(Chorus)
Oh, the wanderer bold, ‘neath the starlit sky’s gleam,
Met the three goannas in the Desert’s dream.
With a heart full of truth, she learned to amend,
Wove the land and its kin in a song without end.
(Verse 2)
Father’s tomatoes sharp, Mother’s ants far too sweet,
But Little Goanna’s wattle warmed her heart’s beat.
On their mats she tried rest—too rough, then too slick—
Till the small one’s weave held her dreams soft and quick.
(Chorus)
Oh, the wanderer bold, ‘neath the starlit sky’s gleam,
Met the three goannas in the Desert’s dream.

I'm a little disappointed with my video. I couldn't put in the images I curated. But I stand by it. I am contributing to the debate over America Party. I'm a MAGA supporter always preferred GOP, despise RINO. I likely will never vote AP, but I welcome their existance in US Democracy, noting Dem's have utterly failed.
If the Democrat party is a corrupt, and ultimately spent force, what replaces it? Should we wait for a head to grow back? Or, should we look back to the vision of Jefferson and Adams? What is your preference for the future? I read all comments. Please like and subscribe.
Below is a prog rock song in the style of Emerson, Lake & Palmer, characterized by grandiose lyrical imagery, complex narrative structure, and a blend of theatrical pomp with driving rhythms and intricate keyboard flourishes. The song, titled "Star-Spangled Visionaries," celebrates the America Party led by Elon Musk as an alternative to a corrupt Democratic establishment, draws parallels to the Jefferson-Adams ...
