Ridley’s Believe It Or Not For September 29, 2019 After roundly
castigated for his Godfather parody, Schiff is trying to recover from his leap
over the cliff by announcing the whistleblower will testify (will be nice to what
Blue operatives crafted his letter and who the unnamed sources are for his
observations and the extent of his Blue candidates support); at the Mostly
Slanted “News” Biased Cack network like a Morton salt commercial when Trump
appears bias from commentators like Nicole Wallace pours as she spoke over the President
Trump’s words while speaking and called him a liar (pathetic but to be expected
from a network that dispenses false news to disguise opinion); Pelosi is trying
to do the Texas Two Step on a tightrope call for an impeachment inquiry and
hold hearings going during election to
keep issue distracting from failures of
the Blues but not file Articles of Impeachment that would devastate her House
majority, end her Speakership and give Trump 4 more years (consistent with her
calling for impeachment before even reading the transcript of the Trump phone
call); the Thin Blue Line got thinner in the Bronx as another police officer
was shot and killed trying to a arrest a suspect who was also killed by the
officer’s fellow officers during the struggle; the Friendly Skies were the Terrifying
Skies on a United Airline flight in which the port outboard engine started to shake
violently
https://www.foxnews.com/travel/united-airlines-engine-shakes-midflight;
on the terrorist front, Javier Garcia was charged with domestic terrorism for
driving his SUV into a Chicago mall, Robert Hester, arrested in 2017 of
plotting to give support to ISIS for attacks in the U.S. has pled guilty and is
expected to rot for at least 15 years in a federal prison, and Abdul-Majeed
Marouf Ahmed Alani, an American Airlines mechanic who delayed a flight by
sabotage claiming it was due to a labor dispute, is facing accusations that he
is also an ISIS supporter with anti-nonMuslim sentiments; De Niro the virulent
profane anti-Trump zero was on CNN Skelter’s program Sunday to plug the movie Joker in which he has a minor role but
switched to dropping f* bombs against Trump and anyone who supports him and
claiming he is crazy (look in the mirror De Niro and clean up your pathetic
act); the Big Apple under Di Blasio deserves the moniker of the Big Insanity as
its Human Rights Commission has passed rules indicating that the use of “illegal
alien” or threatening to call ICE can subject a person up to $250,000 (what is
this world coming too when a person coming here illegally is statutorily
defined as an “illegal alien”); in Chicago through
September 28, 2019, 2119 have been shot of whom 363 have died, but to no surprise
the day of no deaths on the 27th has ended ; and in Baltimore with a
fraction of Chicago’s population, 255 have been murdered in Baltimore (when
will Chicago and Baltimore get serious about this carnage or is this the case
of true racism as a Blue run city turns a deaf ear and a blind eye to the
slaughter of people of color by people of color and when will the left focus on
the problem of color on color shootings in Blue run cities which have been more
deadly and more numerous than random mass shootings?

1. World
Heart Day—celebrated on the 29th of September and created by
the World Heart Foundation to promote a heart healthy life style and create
awareness of what a person needs to do to avoid cardiovascular disease.
2. VFW Day—commemorating the founding of the VFW on this
day in 1899 by 13 veterans of the Spanish American War to fight for the
benefits and services deserved by veterans, a struggle the organization has
fought for 120 years for the hundreds of thousands of veterans who have fought
outside our shores in wars to protect the American life.
3. 1947 Number One Song— the
number one song in 1947 on this day on a run of 12 weeks in the position was “Near
You” by Francis Craig and His Orchestra. Here is a recording of the song:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CbZLpAMnclQ. This
honky tonk piano was near and dear to his fans’ hearts until he died at 66 on
November 19, 1966.
4. Word of the Day—today’s word of the day is “postcenal”
which means after dinner which could welcome a good TV show, book or any activity
with a family member or loved one.
5. First Wild Man of Rock and Roll—celebrating the
birth on this day in 1935 of piano player singer Jerry Lee Lewis best known for
his hit “Great Balls of Fire” who has been finally slowed down by a stroke that
has ended his touring career but he is anxiously awaiting a medical clearance
to resume. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7IjgZGhHrYY
On this day in:
a. 1940
in New South Wales, Australia two Avro-Anson trainers collided together mid air
and remained on top of each other with the upper plane’s engines stopped but
the lower plane’s engines still working which caused the two crewmembers of the
lower plane to bail out and the pilot of the upper plane to control the two
with his flaps and ailerons to land the planes.
b. 1957
the Kysthm nuclear disaster occurred at a plutonium producing nuclear weapons
plant in the Soviet Union and was the third worst nuclear disaster the world
has seen.
c. 1975 WGPR in Detroit, Michigan became the first black owned and
operated TV station in the U.S.
d. 1990 construction on the
Washington National Cathedral which was started in 1907 with the laying of the
cornerstone was finally completed.
e. 2007 in the United Kingdom, Calder
Hall, the world’s first nuclear power plant, was destroyed by a controlled explosion.
Reflections on the VFW: “These guys who
return home don't join the VFW. It's not like World War II - these guys become
isolated. We need to provide an environment for them and let them know they're
OK.” Gerald Sadler
