On Balls & Bro-haha on a Beer Can

 



To believe or make believe?  Follow the money one more time. The New York Post offers the most credible explanation for how and why the joke of presenting a biological male as a "woman" is currently being played out in the advertising world.  

This week, when I saw Amazon Prime's Girl with Moustache commercial for the first time on Freevee,  I wasn't sure what I was seeing; but it definitely caught and held my attention, with my brain and eyes trying to figure out what was going on.  Turns out, it was more upside-down world being presented, with this as one of the takes offered online:  "The new advertisement campaign launched by Amazon landed on American TV in March 2023, intending to share inspiring messages through symbolic situations that people can easily relate to.   

"Olivia Wilde directs the Amazon Prime “girl with mustache” commercial: a message of inclusivity

In the 2023 Amazon Prime commercial, we watch a young woman face the unwanted mustache she saw on her face for the first time. She’s initially worried about it and starts thinking about some way to remove it, but then she has an insight: all the icons she loves have mustaches, and Amazon Prime is there to remind her. Eddie Murphy, Frida Khalo, and Freddie Mercury show up, almost waving at her, proud of their hair. And that’s how the girl embraces her look, buying (on Amazon, of course) a rock jacket and transforming her style appropriately.

On Turned Around & Upside Down

 


Disorder & Chaos works too, yielding the same confusion and destructive results.

On Birds & Dogs in Our Area Have Yet to Be Informed

 


The forest surrounding us is alive with the sound of bird calls, as the securing of territory and mates is in full swing.  What seems to work best for reproduction and survival in the avian sector is male/female pairing with each bird bearing distinctly different markings in the overall.  When it comes to canines,  dogs will sniff around anything, with some males eager and willing to practice their mounts on furniture, human legs and other male dogs.  In the long run, however, reproduction for them as well still boils down to paired contributions from distinctly male and female reproductive organs.  Stealing the spotlight is a whole 'nother story.  Poor Spuds looks pole-axed.

I don't think it's gonna work.

OK, we've seen the Great Black Hope handle Trump with kid gloves lest somebody pull an Epstein.

Or Ashli Babbitt.

So what do they have? Those felonies are misdemeanors, legally, and I don't think a DA can upgrade 'em all on his lonesome. And he's gonna have to prove the errors in question were known of approved by Donald Trump personally.

Sounds like pretty thin gruel. Of course, a lot can happen, but every move our genius Left seems to make appears to driving away support.

We shall see.

UPDATE: De de deet de deet de deet: More fun stuff from Sundance: Trump spent campaign money on oppo research and stuff which is against some unspecified election law and did naughty financial things while he was not running the Trump organization.

Who knew?


The Babe in a different uniform. He reported for duty then headed straight to the clap shack.

John Prine was the man:

WKRLEM:John Prine - "Souvenirs" - Live from Sessions at West 54th

WABC TV Eyewitness News (1976) It's time for the news!


When they hired John Johnson it became a colored presentation. Just sayn'

Dick Van Dyke and Mary Tyler Moore tell it like it is!

I tried out all the time but I never got picked!


Story of my life!

The rest of the Dream team

 



Left Field: Roy White

He was the best player on those old Yankee teams. A good hitter, baserunner and a spectacular fielder. He was all around one of my favorite players.




Centerfield: Jim Lyttle

He only had a short career with the Yankees but he was one of my favorites because I got his bat on Bat Day. I used it to play softball and I have it to this very day.


Right Field: Ron Woods

I mean just look at the guy! You can tell he was a very smart ball player.

Well at least he dove into the stands to catch the ball.

Just sayn'

Pitcher: Stan Bahnsen

A crafty right hander he was the best pitcher on some very bad teams. I saw him pitch his heart out game after game and lose do the ineptness of the rest of the team

He never gave up. A true Yankee.
