Anyone hoping for change will find it at the G-7, where 6 of the 7 heads of state are infected with leftosis gravis and will likely be gone in the coming weeks or months. Only Italy's Meloni seems immune.


This graphic is my simian revision of a similar graphic already floating around.

I think an analogy would be:

My! That's the stinkiest dog shit I have ever stepped in.

The Signora looks like she could take all of them without wrinkling her suit.

If Donald Trump wins I'm leaving the country and fast!

And a gorgeous suit it is. That lady has good taste.

You won't have to leave. They're already planning your one-way trip to Guantanamo.

I didn't say hubba-hubba but I could have.  Just got back from Italy a couple of weeks ago.   Purchased 3 pairs of shoes,  because what else does a guy buy there?

I got some excellent marble reproductions of classic Roman statues, a ride down the Appian Way in a horse-driven carriage from the Colosseum to the Catacombi and back, a chess set with metal figures based on Italian Renaissance sculptures, an audience with Pope John-Paul II* and a nice front-opening switchblade.

* Actually, I bought a ticket to be part of the audience for the Pope's usual Wednesday public appearance (and got frisked by a Swiss Guard).

At the risk of going off on a tangent...

Well, seeing that this post is past its "best before date," here's the dope...

I don't have it anymore, or any pictures, but it looked like this:


It was not a high-end product but it would reliably shoot its 6-inch blade forward instantly and close instantly with a press of the button. It would not open if blocked or obstructed, so no worry about going off in one's pocket.

A single-hand opener is a good idea for situations when one hand is all you have available, but the dramatic visual effect is a movie device as one shouldn't even deploy a knife until ready to strike.

These days for EDC, I prefer a lockable side opening Tanto with a thumb knob for single-hand open. And I wouldn't go into a combat situation without my (modernized) Fairburn-Sykes.

A rusty bent knife with no tip and chips hacked out of the blade has more use than the G7 on its best day.


The G7!  it's for the Children™

FLOORWARD!

Italy’s Meloni unveiled Super Death Ray ability at G-7. Italy’s Prime Minister is so hot right now.

The hysterics machine ™ is in full swing, describing her as literally Mussolini ™.  Because literally Hilter ™ is already reserved for Orange Man Bad.
