DON’T MISS THE FAMILY HOLIDAY EVENT OF THE SEASON

‘A CHRISTMAS STORY’ LIVE ON STAGE
DEC. 1st – 17th at the NCRD Performing Arts Center

Reserved Seating and Showtimes at www.RiverbendPlayers.org
Children 12 and under $10, General $20, Premium $25

A CHRISTMAS STORY:
Humorist Jean Shepherd’s memoir of growing up in the Midwest in the late 1930s follows 9-year-old Ralphie Parker in his quest to get a genuine Red Ryder BB gun under the tree for Christmas.

Ralphie pleads his case before his mother, his teacher, and even Santa Claus himself at Higbee’s Department Store.
The consistent response: “You’ll shoot your eye out!”

All the elements from the beloved motion picture are here, including the family’s temperamental exploding furnace; Scut Farkas, the school bully; the boys’ experiment with a wet tongue on a cold lamppost; the Little Orphan Annie decoder pin; Ralphie’s father winning a lamp shaped like a woman’s leg in a net stocking; Ralphie’s fantasy scenarios and more.

A Christmas Story, a theatrical holiday treat!

Bunkhouse for thanksgiving dinner

Submitted By: Jennie1550@yahoo.com – Click to email about this post
Gabe at the Bunkhouse is making some special meals for you to choose from on Thanksgiving.

Don’t miss out if you would rather have somebody else in the kitchen doing the cooking and clean up!!

Come alone or bring the whole family. I’d guess you could order to go and enjoy your meal at home during the game. (Surely there’s some kind of game on TV.)

See the poster for details.

THE SIXTIES
Coming on the 60th year since John Fitzgerald Kennedy was murdered. During the same period several other bright lights were also extinguished because as a whole they represented a real threat to the Military Industrial Intelligence Complex that Eisenhower warned us about and any major turning towards world wide cooperation was not to be tolerated. It was a pivotal time in so many ways.

Don’t kill your pets yet?

Submitted By: genedieken@yahoo.com – Click to email about this post
Dixie Gainer’s recent BBQ post discounting the reality of climate change began with the assertion that the World Economic Forum advocates dispatching pets as a mitigation tactic. Of course, this is easily checked and isn’t true. Here’s Reuters Fact Check:
December 16, 2022. The World Economic Forum (WEF) did not issue advice to slaughter millions of pets to curb climate change. Online reports that it did are false.
Reuters found no evidence that the organization suggested slaughtering pets, and searches through the WEF website did not reveal any such guidance (archive.vn/wip/UgC3L). The claims appear to stem from an article published by the website NewsPunch, which has posted false news in the past. It is viewable (archive.vn/1IDuQ)…
Me personally, I’d have a hard time believing anything from a TwitterX feed calling itself “Illuminatibot.” The NewsPunch talking head in the linked video is a short silent clip repeating every few seconds and the audio is from a speech generator.
Many climate predictions certainly have been laughable. Modeling complex non-linear systems like climate is among things we don’t really have well-enough developed science, math, or computation for.
Nonetheless, certain things about climate change fall well within common actuarial math: If you live in Florida your homeowner’s insurance is now unaffordable if you can get it. If you live in Portland your electricity rate just went up by double digits partially to pay for undergrounding more than 100 miles of new distribution powerlines to prevent sparking of catastrophic wildland fires. Hurricanes and fires do not care about your politics.

50 FAILED CLIMATE PREDICTIONS DON’T KILL YOUR PET YET

Submitted By: dixiegainer@gmail.com – Click to email about this post
Today climate activists are saying that you have to kill your pet because they are contribute climate change, also you have to give up food, including meat because fertilizer contributes to climate change, and water because water is scarce due to climate change, and you have to give up being warm in winter and cool in the summer because these things take fossil fuel which causes climate change which will end the world as we know it.
I think that if you give up these things, you will end, not just your pet, and that is the point
https://twitter.com/iluminatibot/status/1725044924545208797?s=21 (pet news) Modern doomsayers have been predicting climate and environmental disaster since the 1960s. They continue to do so today. None of the apocalyptic predictions with due dates as of today have come true. What follows is a collection of notably wild predictions from notable people in government and science. More than merely spotlighting the failed predictions, this collection shows that the makers of failed apocalyptic predictions often are individuals holding respected positions in government and science. While such predictions have been and continue to be enthusiastically reported by a media eager for sensational headlines, the failures are typically not revisited . HOW YOU ARE FOOLED https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8455KEDitpU Below are the 41 failed doomsday, eco-pocalyptic predictions (with links):
