Little Known Religious Figures #5
… St. Schrodinger
John remarks … that whenever he sees ‘Schrodinger’, he often reads Schroeder
Graham responds … (because that is what us chaps do) go on …
well - you know how Schroeder is always playing that toy piano? turns out that he is not the only one …. James, Lars and the rest of the gang have a similar penchant …
Which then made me think of their manager … Peter Mensch you know - as it does …
Is this going anywhere?
Well, do you know who Peter is married to? Let me save you the brain cells … Louise Bagshawe Don’t you just love how posh English people add ‘e’s onto their names - I mean doesn’t ’Bagshawe’ sound and read so much more sophisticated than Bagshaw?
And wiki entry aside - Louise is … ?
a newly emerging thorn in the side of one Donald Trump. Seriously ….
Here she is in the NYT last month. She also runs Heat Street for Rupert Murdoch - so she ain’t some crazy lefty (at least no in the obvious way.) But the one that caught my attention was this one yesterday on Patribiotics
The opening paragraph reads …
Sources with links to the intelligence community say it is believed that Carter Page went to Moscow in early July carrying with him a pre-recorded tape of Donald Trump offering to change American policy if he were to be elected, to make it more favorable to Putin. In exchange, Page was authorized directly by Trump to request the help of the Russian government in hacking the election.
and then goes on …
When Carter Page returned to the RNC in Cleveland, he and Jeff Sessions, who recruited him to Team Trump via the Alfa Bank lobbyist Richard Burt, both met with the Russian spymaster Sergei Kislyak. From public reporting, we know that they not only changed the RNC platform on Ukraine at the behest of Russia, but also discussed lifting sanctions, a violation of the Logan Act.
and as far as I know - nobody is suing her for defamation. Isn’t it amazing what thought trains a cartoon can launch …
You know, this Chap had worried the dialog stuff might be somewhat arduous. But he takes it back – it seems to have been way too easy. This Chap could swear he started this hare running, but based upon the above, somehow without any conscious input from him the words just appear on the page fully formed, like Venus from the brow, or whatever, of – well, Jupiter, or Saturn, or Uranus.
I’d go with Uranus, but even so still lost! That said, I am sure the other chap can elucidate.
Sigh… It all started so simply, too… But then ThisChap started, apparently, speaking in tongues mostly not his own, and all of a sudden that poor kitty’s existential “alive or dead” falls by the wayside. As does, apparently, not just kitty (sorry, kitty) but the (critical and tragic) differentiation between Past Tense and Historic Present.
Truly, this may be the End Of The Word As We Know It. (Or, possibly, Knew it.)
Sounds like a cue for a song … or is that too obvious?
But I was actually referencing the image … the rest … I’m good.
Venus, Saturn’s daughter, was born of the foam of his severed testicles, which his son Jupiter cut off and threw into the sea.”
Got it. Thankyou. Filed in the ‘new news’ cabinet.
