A message from former Governor Mike Huckabee

The Disney you knew is gone

I grew up faithfully watching the Mickey Mouse Club on our black & white TV and singing along with the opening and closing songs. I knew all the Mouseketeers by name and probably had a crush on the girl Mouseketeers like Annette Funicello. On Sunday nights my family watched Disney’s Wonderful World of Color, although I never saw it in color. Color TV wouldn’t be something my family had until I was in high school. There wasn’t a Disney World in Florida back then—just a Disneyland in California, and I dreamed that someday I’d get to go there. The Disney brand was magic and Walt Disney was like everyone’s favorite uncle who was rich and had all the cool stuff. The Disney movies were dependably wholesome, family-friendly, and had a moral lesson embedded in the plot. Parents knew that their kids could see a Disney film and be entertained without being embarrassed or indoctrinated.

Just a few years back, we took our entire family to Disney World. Sure, it was mostly about taking the grandkids there and making sure they were indulged to the hilt.

But the wonderful family-friendly company that Walt Disney founded is gone, replaced by creepy corporate executives who have lost their minds and will likely lose a lot of their customers. They certainly have lost me.

Disney executives have outright lied about the Florida legislation that prohibits government schools from teaching sexual content to pre-schoolers and young elementary children. What person in his or her right mind want 4 year old children to be taught about homosexuality, transgenderism, and sexual expression? Disney execs repeated the utterly debunked lie that the bill was a “Don’t Say Gay” bill. Such language was nowhere in the bill. But it gets worse. In a conference call, other Disney leaders expressed the goal that in future Disney movies, at least half of all the characters in a film with be gay, lesbian, bi-sexual, transgender, queer, or something other than heterosexual.

And theme parks will be forbidden to say “hello boys and girls” and instead will be required to say “welcome dreamers and friends.” And no more will little girls be called princess when they show up in a gown. I guess boys could be a princess under the new perverted Disney code. Who knows?

This is so outrageous it’s hard to believe that the Disney company has become such a purveyor of soft-porn and woke-ism so that instead of entertaining children with fantasy and magic, Disney’s new model is sexual fantasy, outright betrayal and rejection of traditional values of marriage and gender, and instead of moral neutrality, Disney has opted for immoral advocacy.

Will their remake of Snow White and the 7 Dwarfs be called The Nymphomaniac and the 7 Male Prostitutes? Will Lady and the Tramp be re-named “The Lesbian and the Housing Challenged Non-gendered Animal?” Will Beauty and the Beast be renamed “The Bi-Sexual and the Child Predator?” And Swiss Family Robinson will now be about a dysfunctional family that becomes homeless and lives in a local park after wrecking their VW hippie van.

I simply refuse to believe that this dishonesty and insanity from Disney represents what American parents and grandparents want to purchase for their children. But the only way to push back against this filth is to find other products and places when you purchase entertainment for your family.

This is no longer about party politics. A clear majority of Florida Democrats support the law prohibiting schools from indoctrinating 4 and 5 year old children about various sexual agendas that are probably NOT the agendas of parents. I guess the small number of people supporting the perverted version of a public school will next want to trade in yellow school buses for white, windowless utility vans typically called “kidnapper vans” since that is pretty much the direction Disney is taking with your children.

I am old enough to remember when parents would say, “Sure, you can watch that movie. It’s a Disney movie so it will be safe.” Not anymore! This ain’t kid’s stuff. And I for one don’t want to enrich the people that have destroyed the Magic Kingdom and turned it into the Perverted Palace. Mickey shouldn’t be the face of Disney anymore. The Disney character most representative of the company would be GOOFY!

Help needed ?!

This morning, more research regarding the ancestry of “Mr. Red.” In my humble opinion, too much inaccurate information. I say “inaccurate” because of obvious (to me) inconsistent dates.

DNA dilemma

Yesterday, many hours were devoted to the documentation of information, in the tree, in the Gallery for “Mr. Red.” A kind, thoughtful, considerate, cousin has provided volumes of valuable information about DNA. I copied the information from email messages… Details regarding Big-Y-DNA have been extremely confusing to me and I’m extremely grateful for explanations. ~~ Without a lot of documentation on this blog, I continue to “work” on the family tree for the owner-manager of this RV Park. Way back when… I hit the proverbial “brick wall” and that has me frustrated about the accurate identity of one of “Mr. Red’s” ancestors. I thought the Big-Y-DNA test would answer my questions. Big-Y is male lineage only. Disappointment and confusion!! ~~ Earlier blog message: Happiness is…

Complain Lorraine

Desperately need sleep!! At best, four hours of sleep each night. To bed at about 10 and awake at 1:30 or 2:00. Look at the time stamp for this blog message: 3:30 AM. After an hour-and-a-half tossing and turningin bedI’m here “complaining”!! My most recent purchase was ZzzQuil Pure Zzzs and it is advertised (on the box) “all night, helps you fall asleep and stay asleep.” I wear a Philip Stein sleep bracelet; I have a “sound machine” turned on near my bed. ~~ I speculate that I could, would, should get a lot more things accomplished each day if I wasn’t so tired. In my humble opinion, it doesn’t require any energy to sit at the computer creating a blog message or “climbing the family tree.” ~~ I’ve procrastinated: I see the TV advertisements for Relaxium but have been “too tired” to actually phone… or order via the Internet.  ~~ Forgive me for complaining? This is my “journal” and I’m documenting my current problem.

Neglect regret !!

Year after year, I’ve been prepared for the Hummingbirds. Ahead of their arrival, I’ve checked the migration patterns. Yesterday, a Hummingbird checked the area where feeders usually hang, and no feeder. I saw the little bird and said “OMG, I forgot.”   This morning, I saw another… and it prompted me to make nectar. ~~ It’s a beautiful Spring day, I should be working in the yard!!

See “Postscript” to Detective Lorraine

Out of the blue, I received the “thank you” message. Most of the timein my old ageI think I’m “good for nothing.” The word must be “out there” that Lorraine digs deep, far, and wide for information. Frequently she isn’t even related… Here is an example of a message received via Ancestry messaging. Yes, I did a quick search and “quickly” found information. Sharon didn’t give me much informationand if you look at her genealogical contributions, they are small.  ~~ I almost never check my DNA cousin connectionsbut I checkedand nothing located.

.

POSTSCRIPT @ 8:40 AM “the next day”: Below, you can read Sharon’s one-sentence reply. ~~ “Disappointment” with her reply, to put it mildly.


How do I really feel?

Earlier today, I completed the following collage. Again, these are individuals I am not related to. The day prior, I researched his brother.
