Thanksgiving Song

Here's wishing all my truckbuddies a happy Thanksgiving Day. M.P. hasn't felt well lately, so we are postponing our turkey dinner to Sunday.  This song by Mary Chapin Carpenter is a favorite of his.

Balls

A couple weeks ago, I wrote that Mamdani has balls, but I was wrong.  Mamdani is a just a pretender.  Senator Mark Kelly is a MAN with bull balls.  Read this, and weep for the state of our country:

Mark Kelly To Hegseth: I Won’t Be “Silenced By Bullies”

Sunday Drive: Come, Ye Thankful People, Come

The beloved hymn of thanksgiving as performed by renowned organist Diane Bish:

Be still and know that I am God.  --Psalm 146

Trump and Mamdani: Who's Fooling Whom?

Well, fellas, truth is certainly stranger than fiction in this deranged modern world.  Y'all remember last week, I predicted Mamdani would play David to Trump's Goliath.  Yesterday's meeting in the White House might have been a remake of Daniel in the lions' den.  But oh, was I ever wrong.  Turns out, it was Beauty and the Beast all over again. Love has bloomed, and life is beautiful.  Ain't that grand?

This is an invitation across the nation for dancing in the street!

I'm going to keep my predictions to myself in future. When you get two New Yorkers in a room together, there's no telling what the result will be -- love or murder, or who knows what. But I'll say this:  I don't believe a fucking word either of them said. There's a devil's game being played for the cameras, and it stinks. But I'll stop right there.

Put not your trust in princes . . . 

Bonus:  Republican Curtis Sliwa, who came in a distant third in the NYC mayoral race, agrees with your Head Trucker, saying "everyone got played" by these two fakers.  (Can't embed the short here.)

Jeffrey Kevin: Blue and White Thanksgiving Tablescape

Jeffrey Kevin goes over the top once again for Thanksgiving. It's much more than we would ever put on one table, but he does have some very pretty things, and he enjoys displaying them.  And why not?  À chacun son goût!

One More Time!

It doesn't get any better than this.  Fred Astaire and Eleanor Powell tap out a storm in Broadway Melody of 1940:

And here's Eleanor remembering that number in a tribute to Astaire, 1981:

Somewhere on YouTube is the same delightful clip of their dance, but set to "Sugar, Sugar" by the Archies. I can't find it today, though.
