Is Communism dead?
Here is an old anti-Communist comic book from 1947.
If its predictions sound quaint and silly to us now, then Communism is indeed dead.
However, if the subversive tactics have come to pass or are still in use, then perhaps this warning from 66 years ago is not so silly after all:   Continue reading “Is Communism Dead? A 1947 Comic Book Reveals the Truth”

There has been a lot of discussion and coverage concerning obama’s farewell speech. I do not know about you, but I have heard enough from this guy.

Tiny Tim (born Herbert B. Khaury; April 12, 1932 – November 30, 1996) was an American singer, ukulele player, and musical archivist.[1] He is best remembered for his rendition of “Tiptoe Through the Tulips” sung in a high falsetto/vibrato voice.

Tiny Tim was born in Manhattan, New York City on April 12, 1932. His mother was Tillie (née Staff), a garment worker, who was the daughter of a rabbi. She had immigrated from Brest-Litovsk as a teen in 1914. Tiny’s father, Butros Khaury, a textile worker, was from Beirut, Lebanon and his father was a Maronite Christian priest.[3][4][5]

In a 1968 interview on The Tonight Show, he described the discovery of his ability to sing in an upper register in 1952: “I was listening to the radio and singing along; as I was singing I said ‘Gee, it’s strange. I can go up high as well.'” He then entered a local talent show and sang “You Are My Sunshine” in his newly discovered falsetto. Although he stood 6 ft 1 in (185 cm),[7] he started using the stage name Tiny Tim in 1963 at the suggestion of his manager George King.
