Andy Pandy Dies
Andy Pandy, the star of British children's television series that premiered on BBC TV in summer 1950, has died at the age of 75.
Andy, the marionette who lived in a picnic basket, was later joined by Teddy, a teddy bear, and Looby Loo, a rag doll, who would appear when Andy and Teddy weren't around.
All three lived in the same picnic basket. At the time it was considered a metaphor for a multi racial society.
Initially the programmes were transmitted live, but Andy, unaware of Looby Loo’s existence, felt he was going mad and hearing singing voices. He felt he was going (in his words) “Looby Laa” and his behaviour started to become unacceptable at the BBC.
He was finally dismissed in 1973, after turning up to the studio, out of his skull on a cocktail of Absinthe, Shoe Polish & Um Bongo.
Andy spent the rest of his career as a door stop in Newport Pagnal Bus station.
The funeral is next Thursday.

Charm - Offensive
Just like the Aussie PM being usurped, Canada has also swept aside a good P.M. and brought in a new guy that could be a concern...
Gut feeling... not good about "charming poster-boy" Justin Trudeau.
He's being talked about, (of all things) his tattoo of a "Haida Raven consuming the world..." Not speaking against tattoos per-say, but this guy's choice was a deliberate statement. Do check out the mythology of his Haida Raven tattoo is here.
(Time will tell)

Donald Trump And The Scottish Wind Farm
BBC Report says...
"Donald Trump in Supreme Court over Scottish wind farm - 8 October 2015
Donald Trump's challenge to a planned offshore wind farm will go to the Supreme Court later.
Developers intend to site the large turbine structures close to Mr Trump's golfing development on the Aberdeenshire coast. The US businessman has taken on the Scottish government, which approved the plan."
Here's my solution...

Mirror Mirror...
Following the announcement by rap star Kayne West, to run as a candidate in the 2020 presidential elections, he has started to outline his policies.
1/ Add his face to Mount Rushmore
2/ Replace the National Anthem with one of his rambling self-indulgent tracks
3/ Take what gold is left (if anything) from the Federal Reserve and melt it down into a chain for Kim
4/ Insist all foreign leaders wear his range of c**p clothes
5/ Move his governmental office from the white house to his studio, or up his own pompous back-side (whatever is easier for him)
6/ Replace the CIA, with his own entourage

Hegelian Remix
When the environment is "kept" lukewarm, people tend to welcome extremes. Political Correctness and the consequent curbing of free-speech and then free-will, breeds this. However, in our passion, just make sure you're not being played like a fiddle!
We still need to be diligent to maintain checks and balances; we need tempered, passion! To respond, not react. "Do unto others, as you would have them do to you."
Someone needs to do the right thing, even if others do not... it might as well be you. But, of course, DO speak the truth, in love and boldness!
Here's an example in the UK news yesterday... Stabbed Teacher Forgives Boy
His testimony went National.
Romans 12:18
"If it is possible, as much as depends on you, live peaceably with all men."

Windy Miller
70 Years from now, "The Council For The Protection Of Rural England" and "The Ramblers Association" will be protesting if Wind Farms are ever dismantled; (on the basis that they're an integral part of the landscape and hold historic significance for future generations.) In the mean time... "Naff Off, E.D.F. you're ruining our view as we trample across other people's land"

So, did the deal go something like this?
"Yes, Turkey will support the war against ISIS, if you promise not to interfere with our forthcoming treatment of the Kurds"
Remember when George H.W. Bush Snr. abandoned the Kurds, once before... will the great USA really, in all conscience, allow it again?

Hmmmm, "police "attacked" people carrying the injured away".... LINK
