1967 UFO Encounter...

...Immortalized as Trippy-Ass, Glow-in-the-Dark Coin by Canadian Mint...

The $20 silver coin released today retails for $129.95 CAD ($101 USD). Sure, that’s a lot of money to spend on something that’s supposed to be worth $20. But it also comes with a black light flashlight. When the proud owners shine the light on the coin, it shows the UFO beaming down light on Michalak, blasting him with the rays that allegedly left him sick and smelly.

Don't you dare laugh... I have it on good authority...

Prime Minister Justin Trudeau's exoneration of six Tsilhqot'in Indigenous chiefs... should be followed by a similar move to right another historical wrong: the hanging of South Asian political activist Mewa Singh.

Singh was the first Sikh activist to be hanged on Canadian soil for a political murder.

LAST WORD: The price of virtue signalling...

MENDOCINO, Calif. — An SUV carrying a large, free-spirited family from Washington state accelerated straight off a scenic California cliff and authorities said the deadly wreck may have been intentional.

Known as the Hart Tribe, the multiracial family of two married women — Sarah and Jennifer Hart — and six adopted children often took spontaneous road trips to camp and hike and travelled to festivals and other events, offering hugs and promoting unity.

“To the best of my knowledge, there was not a suicide note found at the residence,” said Baarts, who added that authorities have been interviewing friends and family members of the Harts.

“There have been red flags,” he said, but did not elaborate.

Do as I say... not as I do

Earlier this month, Sinclair Broadcast Group, owner/operator of nearly 200 television stations in the U.S., forced its news anchors to record a promo about “the troubling trend of irresponsible, one sided news stories plaguing our country.”

The net result of the company’s current mandate is dozens upon dozens of local news anchors looking like hostages in proof-of-life videos, trying their hardest to spit out words attacking the industry they’d chosen as a life vocation.
