Some more - Looking through the Keyhole...

A golden nugget of text appeared in one national newspaper. It was about that extraordinary goofy show ‘I am a Celebrity, Get me out of here’. It was under the heading of Great TV Lies and Delusions. It is basically a bit of a caustic comment on what one of the contestants, Nella Rose had said. ‘I have never started something in my life and finished it’, and next ‘ A McHappy Meal says she is lying’. Well, that put paid to the woke business then! Having stopped laughing I have to say showing the vociferous Nella up for what she stands for. What is wrong with young people. I do think she could be a pretty good politician, those characters also start a multitude of projects, talk endlessly about it but never finish them. Anyway, people like that I believe, are the ones guilty of warming up the globe, too much hot air. But the females of this world are quite the feisty bunch aren’t they? Especially the American ones. What happened to the great women of the Victorian era? Those who travelled to the West? On foot even, enduring incredible hardships? But now we have the likes of the Duchess of something or the other, bitching about how bad she has been treated. Not being happy to sit in a million pounds, sorry dollars, complex watching the forest fires nearby, casting accusations about like the tennis balls on their court. As a previous Dutchman I am angry about that nation being castigated as the bad guys for having translated a book she undoubtedly had a big hand in, with names of our Royal House as racists. Who believes a word these people say? Scobie the so-called author or the Duchess? I know a solution to this – take away her title(s) and sue her for defamation. The author to be put on trial in London and banished to the Tower where he can gaze at the Crown Jewels before his head comes off. Anyone to handle the blunt axe? Join the queue which already must be a mile long.

It is a funny world, no? Despite court cases left right and centre, people still publish unsubstantiated clap-trap hoping to make a fast buck. But on this occasion I am hoping Buck Palace will take appropriate steps for once. These people need to button their cake-hole and retire to Greenland.

Meanwhile, in the jungle things have gone rather well. More critters have enjoyed their short life by plastering themselves all over the faces of the remaining contestants. You may ask, what is the point of it all? I am not sure whether I agree with all of it because as our TV Green pundit Chris Packham said, ‘what in all honesty are you doing with these thousands of insects, the mice, the snakes and whatever else they use’? All for our amusement? Sure, Ant and Dec are funny all by themselves but do they need this? It is a worrying trend because to stay in the limelight these type of programmes get more violent, more animals, more gory activities as time goes by. OK, there is no blood spilled in Aussie land except for the bloodsuckers, leeches or ticks but what is next? Putting some tigers in the forest to make it more interesting? I’ll watch that!

Where are the aliens?

  The question and Answer software called ‘Quora’ had some quite interesting debate about aliens. I am bowled over by how many, and some are quite educated, believe in aliens. Particularly that they have been here and not just that, are still here and doing great intelligent things like making crop circles. I have to be honest here and say that yes there are aliens except we will never see or hear them. As probability will tell you that with trillions of galaxies, having billions of stars the likelihood of other life is near to 100%. The problem is that life such as ours on Earth needs to move but in such a way as is possible on Earth. That is to say, a gravity of 1, oxygen to breathe and food of a kind that is digestible. The next thing to consider is movement, meaning star travel. It is pretty clear that life such as on Earth is not really around in our solar system. We might find some microbes but that’s about it . The distances between the star systems even

Is there such a thing as mind-control?

One of my favourite author’s Scott Mariani. Writing explosive stories with the great character he created, Benedict Hope. The latest gung-ho story called The Moscow Cipher actually highlights one of the things that has bothered a lot of people. That of mind-control. I’ve wondered about that as well since even in this country that is a process carried out. It is not a bloody affair as depicted in the book but nevertheless computers, the power of the chip has made it so much easier to influence the minds of the general public. Fake news, little bits of untruths here and there. No hesitation in deluding the general public. Just read, listen and make your mind up. All done in the name of “the truth would harm us all”. But will it? . We have smart phones. With chips that know where we are, what we do and what we say. And yes, it is logged somewhere. We have been rail-roaded into using Facebook, Twitter, WhatsApp. Google knows more about you than the taxman or even your partner and that

Is humanity performing euthanasia on itself?

Looking at the happenings in the Middle East I wonder how suddenly Hamas, i.e the de-facto army of the so-called Palestinian state, took it upon themselves to invade Israel. It cannot be a coincidence that Russia needed some pressures, not in Ukraine but somewhere else to take away the limelight on them. W here better than the Middle East. I am virtually certain that one way or another there are political shenanigans afoot. What IS Palestine exactly? I know about Bedouins, Arabs and Jews, are these not all one and the same? Sure, there are different religions but if you look very closely there are great similarities. It is stupid of most of us not to notice but three of the most followed religions are all based on the same precedents. So w here does the term Palestine come from, I might ask. There was the Ottoman empire, and prior to that the Roman. Prior to that Alexander rampaged through the area. Prior to that we had Egyptians, Hittites and God knows what else. Even monkeys held sw
