Job killers, life destroyers. Say this for the “Greens:” they don’t discriminate. A substantial number of members of the Navajo Nation who worked at the San Juan Generating Station, near Waterflow, NM, are now out of work, owing to the plant’s shutting down. The reason for the shutdown? It’s coal powered, meaning it pumps noxiousContinue reading “Equal opportunity unemployers.”

Could you clarify that, Sheriff?
From Fox News: During an interview on “Fox & Friends,” Friday, Polk County, Florida Sheriff Grady Judd weighed in on the influx of looters who are taking advantage of Hurricane Ian’s devastation, urging armed Florida homeowners to take action. *** I would highly suggest that if a looter breaks into your home, comes into your homeContinue reading “Could you clarify that, Sheriff?”
Czechs go where Londoners fear to tread.
Pravda vítězí–Truth prevails. From Slipped Disc: “PRAGUE PHILHARMONIA PLAYS TONIGHT IN TAIWAN, SAYING FU BEIJING.” The Prague Philharmonic Orchestra arrives in Taipei today to perform Dvorak’s New World Symphony on Taiwan’s National Day. The orchestra has been banned from China since 2019 after the Mayor of Prague refused to recognize Beijing’s ‘one China’ policy. AtContinue reading “Czechs go where Londoners fear to tread.”
The Synodal Way to hell.
The latest of the continuing assaults on the Catholic Church, by Catholics. Reader GWR kindly sent your Tatler a link to a superb self-described polemic by retired Prof. Dr Larry Chapp of deSales University in his blog Gaudiam et spes. It is noteworthy, paradoxically, for both its savagery and elegance, and the author nicely laysContinue reading “The Synodal Way to hell.”
Well, gorblimey: Tesla and Twitter to tie the knot after all.
Bon chance, Elon. Your work is cut out for you. If you can clean up the godforsaken mess that is Twitter at present, your app could conceivably offer certain utility. Bickerstaff briefly had a Twitter account not long ago, but closed it because he could not find a way to stop the depressing daily profusionContinue reading “Well, gorblimey: Tesla and Twitter to tie the knot after all.”
Color me bemused.
People of color: neon green. It’s telling these criminals in the New York trains have so little fear getting caught they dress in a manner making them detectable from a full city block. Or else they’re just stupid. Perhaps a bit of both. h/t LCH.
Attending a Met matinee from afar.
The world’s greatest opera company. Less than satisfied with his playing of the organ at mass this morning, Bickerstaff decided the best way to nurse his wounds was to relax the rest of this cold and rainy day (a rarity in Taos)–practicing could wait til tomorrow. So determined, he lit the fire, brewed a potContinue reading “Attending a Met matinee from afar.”
Holy Church suffers sad but not-too-great loss.
As the English bishop complained to his Catholic counterpart and friend: “We send you our best and you send us your worst.” For some reason your Tatler is on the e-mail list of St Thomas Church in the City of New York (Episcopal), this despite having quit that congregation long ago, before there even wasContinue reading “Holy Church suffers sad but not-too-great loss.”
They just can’t give them up.
Not audiences, but artists and administrators. This is getting so tiresome. Your Tatler was notified the excellent Taos Chamber Music Group, a first-rate ensemble made up of members of first-rate orchestras, was giving a performance in the superb recital hall of the Harwood Museum in Taos. This particular program was gratifyingly original, Sounds of Shakespeare, withContinue reading “They just can’t give them up.”
Non se sum dignus ut intres sub tectum meum.
Cleansing themselves by being yelled at. Kathleen Anderson of The Political Insider has uncovered a new trend among white upper class liberal women of Canada (a trend that will most certainly make its way south), who are looking for new ways of self-flagellation (metaphorically, of course) to assuage their guilt being born the wrong color.Continue reading “Non se sum dignus ut intres sub tectum meum.”
