At about 2 p.m. Pacific Standard time, or 4 p.m. Chicago time, I’ll be putting up a pretty amazing post: I haven’t done anything amazing, but others have, and you’ll want to read about it. You will find it hilarious, infuriating, a mortal wound on some of those we oppose, or even an unethical act. Or all of the above.
Just watch this space in a few hours. You won’t be disappointed.
Jerry aer yiugonfg to try to sell me some Amay shit?
Friday evening news dump?
Funny!
Does this mean there will be a sale at Penney’s?
Guess: Toddler Trump & science/environment related?
Something that puts another nail in that oaf’s coffin? It would be sweet if it besmirches [with truth] most of his team, Pence & the puppet masters [Koch Bros. etc] who financed the Trump campaign too!
**fingers crossed, but I’m wishing for too much**
Pence, Flynn, Turkey?
I very much doubt that Jerry’s post will have anything to do with the “oaf” and his oaferies. However, your post allows me to draw attention to an article in yesterday’s London Times. It revealed that speeches at next week’s Nato Summit will be limited to 4 minutes in order to keep the Trump engaged. Nato officials are also considering adopting tactics from the White House to keep him interested in proceedings. Apparently, staff are required to restrict memos to one page and ensure that briefings last no longer than 15 minutes. National Security Council officials have also taken to including Trump’s name in “as many paragraphs as we can because he keeps reading if he’s mentioned”, a source said —.
If this isn’t “fake news”, and I doubt that it is, this is astounding. America, what have you done?
We ask ourselves the same thing! Especially those of us who didn’t vote for His Oranginess!
The Republicans are used to this. Reagan couldn’t understand graphs and charts, so, to indicate the relative size of armies, for example, they had a USA Today style graphic made of a small soldier wielding a rifle next to a much larger one (which was the USA, of course).
And Mommie (Nancy) consulted an astrologer and then told Ronnie what to do.
I am not sure what Ronnie’s attention span was, though.
The tax returns?
I don’t want to give anything away, but I think I know what it is:
“Dutchess County Public Transit will implement six new bus routes to accommodate City of Poughkeepsie residents.”
Six! And it is pretty amazing. The biggest thing here since Anthony Weiner passed through on the commuter train in handcuffs.
Hey, come on! Spoiler alert.
You’re getting a cat!!!!!?????
Whoa! Hold the presses! That WOULD be breaking news!!!
This I can believe, though it would give me immense pleasure if PCC(E) had video of Trump not only saying he thinks religion is BS, but that Christians, in particular, are weak, easily manipulated, and consequently so unhinged that they are the true source of his power.
No ,he is getting 2 cats .
A bit off topic ,i was sitting pottering around in my shed yesterday ,something came in the door ,ran up the wall then ran out again .
I t was a squirrel being chased by one of my cats .
It’s an amazing optical illusion. Would you believe these two dots are the same color?
… and I’m on Eastern Time and won’t see it until 5:00, so don’t you guys spoil it for me.
Love that one. I was thinking it must have something to do with west coast. Reference the 2 pm pacific time? Maybe something at a west coast school? Bob Beckel was terminated at Fox for something he said to an African American but that can’t be it. I have no clue
I was also thinking West Coast. Maybe pertaining to Peter Boghossian, or Sam Harris. They live on the West Coast.
I got one of the perpetrators right.
Something to do with religion? They have discovered the earth is not flat?
Ken Hamm finally concedes that some dinosaurs were just too big for the Ark.
God revealed himself? And he’s transgender! Or gay?
God came out of the closet saying: Science and religion are incompatible!
The traditional punch line is “she’s black”.
I know. Trump not born in America.
A Sokal style hoax? …
+1
If I were a betting man…
Good call.
Please wait till I can reach my safe area….
Jerry has accepted a post as Science Advisor to the Trump Administration. News at 11.
Still an hour to go! What shall I do to make the time go by?
4 o’clock Chicago time so that is going to be a long hour.
Gads!
Popular subject in these parts is Commencement time at major colleges. Student activists are planning a walk out or something like that when Pence comes to notre dame next week. So maybe PCC has been brought in as a sub. That would be a surprise…
A new kitty sounds most plausible to me.
No, it’s not a new kitty (I wish!).
Why would you think that Jerry getting a new cat is “hilarious, infuriating, a mortal wound on some of those we oppose, or even an unethical act. Or all of the above.”
He gets a lion that does tricks, chews up a rare copy of Darwin, and eats Trump?
Cicada emergence?
Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies: thou anointest my head with oil; my cup runneth over.
Ha!
My guess is a Sokal style hoax.
It’s a breakthrough on the Malabar front which brings the war within measurable distance of its end.
Good guess! Then it’s off to the South China Sea for us, I suppose.
And our continued incursions into Africa, etc. All war, all the time.
Hmmmm….
So you didn’t get a cat….
Jerry will announce that free will really does exist?
announce it…with determination.
“I haven’t done anything amazing, but others have, and you’ll want to read about it.”
Jerry didn’t do it, but others did. But since only Jerry is announcing it, it wouldn’t be a major science thing; that’d be news everywhere. So what kind of work could others do, that they would entrust Jerry to announce it to the world?
“You will find it hilarious, infuriating,”
I find this is most common when we see it coming and wish others had seen it too. If it’s just Jerry doing the announcing, then it’s probably most relevant to people who read his blog and blogs like it. Peter Boghossian is counting down too. This is going to be something that it takes a member of the skeptic community to truly appreciate.
“a mortal wound on some of those we oppose,”
But not all we oppose. So not all creationists for example, but some of them. But if it’s both hilarious and infuriating, that means it’s one of the bigger examples of our enemies.
“or even an unethical act. Or all of the above.”
Someone else, did something potentially unethical, to representatives of our opposition and it’s “mortal.”
Just watch this space in a few hours. You won’t be disappointed.
So here’s my guess:
AiG, Ark Encounter, Ken Ham, Creation Museum, or some combination of those, have committed some kind of egregious hypocrisy and the proof of it was acquired through clandestine acquisition of otherwise confidential material.
I don’t care if I’m wrong. It was just fun to guess. I’m looking forward to the real thing.
I’m on tenterhooks.
Someone has hacked CJ Werleman’s dick-pics? Adam Lee in blackface?
Footage of PZ Myers delivering mass?
Whatever it is PCC, it can hardly be bigger than the daily news. Latest report from NYTs is that Trump told the Russians he had just fired the nut job Comey. Eased great pressure from Russian probe.
Along that same line, try this just for fun. Google – collusion by a president. What do you see, nothing but Trump.
Eastern Standard Time is where it’s at.
I’m dying from the suspense.
Huge problem.
Get addicted to Jerry’s posts.
Then have to unsubscribe to ween my mind.
Just subscribed again for the third time. And already,
I’m hooked.
Not fair.
Is it [b]Game of Thrones[/b] spoilers or what’s imprisoned behind that door in tomorrow’s [b]Doctor Who[/b]?
4:03 pm – why are we waiting?
I know that Gadot will be here soon.
Gotta be the inception of an Im-Peachment Pie Day.
