Who could forget the delightful moment that Queen Elizabeth II took tea with Paddington Bear?
For myself, it was wondrous.
After years of hearing about Me Me Again and Harry the Ginger Flop, it was so nice to stumble upon a bit of the British Queen ignoring their childish and selfish antics.
In fact, when the movie Paddington was released it made people rather surprised and, well, rather jolly gobsmacked. Our Queen took tea with a rather lovely young bear and marmalade became rather special

I don’t know how I could say it any more clearly. At this moment, the vast majority of the population is completely and utterly unprepared for what is ahead of us.
Every day, there are more signs in the news that global events are starting to spiral out of control, but instead of using this summer to get prepared much of the population is partying instead. This greatly frustrates me, because I have been working extremely hard to try to sound the alarm.

It was September 15th 1940 . An auspicious day. The Allies had faced enormous adversity In June 1940; the Wehrmacht had overcome most of Western Europe and Scandinavia.
At that time, the only major power standing in the way of a German-dominated Europe was the British Empire and the Commonwealth.
There had been dark days and days that were increasingly full of light from the daylight raids on London from the German attacks that were set to test the resolve of the British people.
While people around the world call for changes in names of sporting teams, ban words and promote slogans like “ Black Lives Matter “ I have to wonder when they will turn their nasty attention to words that were used with innocent affection and had no ill intent.
As a proud and Patriotic Citizen of Australia, I believe there are many here today who owe their lives to the heroic deeds of “ The Fuzzy Wuzzy Angels. “
If some leftist comes after that name, then they had better be ready for a fight.
Having ascended the British throne back in 1952, Queen Elizabeth II has had her fair share of meetings with foreign heads of state and other prominent figures. Over the years, she also had the opportunity to become acquainted with Russia, having both received the country’s dignitaries and even once paid a state visit herself.
Every day, news reporters, traders, and workers of all sorts the world over wake to do their work as they always have. Part of that requires that everyone pretend that life is normal, fixable, and more or less stable. All of this is temporary. It will come and go and really not be that bad.
Strange, isn’t it? Human beings have a hard time adjusting to disaster, in their decision-making and even in their mindset. Reporters have to do their jobs as they are trained. Traders too. Everyone does. They please their bosses. They don’t sound alarms. They don’t scream and yell as they probably should.

On 11th September 2001, Americans were attacked. They were told a story that they were attacked by 19 Saudis who were part of a global network of terror. Just hours after the buildings collapsed, President George W. Bush announced who the guilty were.
Nobody seemed to wonder that in the space of a few hours the government had magically conducted an investigation and knew who was responsible, except for a few of us that were suspicious of the nature of the collapses and the videos showing Osama Bin Laden claiming responsibility.
Elizabeth the Second, by the Grace of God Queen of Australia and Her other Realms and Territories, Head of the Commonwealth” has died. Given her advanced years, this has long been expected, yet it still seems incredible this woman who has been Australia’s queen for the duration of most Australians’ lives is no longer with us.
I miss my little Jack Russell. A member of my family suggested that I look for another little Jack. I cannot do it.
My heart is still too full of grief to even contemplate a new companion. Not to mention that I am 90 years old and I am not necessarily able to do all of the things that I used to do with my old friend who passed away a few short months ago.
My little Jack Russell aged with me. We grew old together. As his knees became a bit stiff, so did mine.
