NEWLY DISCOVERED PHOTOGRAPHIC EVIDENCE BLOWS TRADITIONAL BELIEFS ABOUT JFK ASSASSINATION SKY HIGH!

Image
Dear Loyal Readers of Kith & Kin, As you know, we here at Kith & Kin Worldwide Publications Ltd., Inc., LLP, constantly and unflaggingly search for and reveal the truth, regardless of what intimidation tactics may come our way. Our large, loyal, underpaid staff has been assiduously (yes, assiduously ) combing through the 80,000 pages of documents on the JFK assassination that were recently released by the Trump administration. As we all know now, mainstream journalists found in the materials absolutely no evidence of a conspiracy, of a second shooter, or even of Oliver Stone. Disappointment among conspiracy-theory adherents (you may count us among that number!) rapidly turned to rage—true, in the past, the lack of any credible evidence was the best proof of a conspiracy and cover-up! But we had nonetheless hoped to find some crumb, some scrap, some nugget of proof of our predetermined conclusions somewhere within all those pages. Well! Apparently the mainstream media r...

In Which I Attempt to Order Two Biscuits at an Iconic American Breakfast Drive-Thru Location

Image
Even AI can ’t  get my order right! “Welcome to [McRedacted]. Did you use your mobile app today?” “No.” “May I take your order please?” “Yes, good morning! I’d like—” “Good morning, hon.” (This is South Carolina.) “Yes, good morning. I’d like one sausage biscuit with egg, just the sandwich, and one sausage biscuit, plain, just the sandwich. And two milks.” “OK.” The screen looks like this. “Is your order correct on the screen?” “No, not exactly. I want one sausage biscuit with egg and one without egg. Plus the two milks.” “Oh, OK, one moment please.” New screen: “Is your order correct on the screen?” “Well, yes, but you’re charging me for two sausage biscuits with egg even though I’m only getting egg on one of them.” “That’s what you said, sir.” “I want one sausage biscuit with egg, which is number four on your menu. And I want a plain sausage biscuit, which is on your Value Menu and is only $2.19.” “The upcharge for the sausage biscuit with egg ...

And Now for Something Different: Minimalist Movie Descriptions

Can you name each movie based on its minimalist plot synopsis? Kudos to my brothers Keith, Eric, and Joel for their creative input! • Archaeologist repeatedly risks his life to ensure that an ancient artifact is properly warehoused. Raiders of the Lost Ark • A whiner with daddy issues saves the day. Star Wars: A New Hope • World’s worst proprietor teaches motel guest that cleanliness is next to deadliness. Psycho • Family film glorifies a romantic relationship between two different species. Beauty and the Beast • Handsome wanderer spends two hours squinting. High Plains Drifter • After the king’s brother kills the king and marries the queen, the king’s ghost appears to his son, urging him to avenge his death. The Lion King . Or Hamlet . Same plot. • Bacall teaches Bogie how to whistle. To Have and Have Not • Faithful, competent, long-time housekeeper has little respect for her inept new employer. Rebecca • Poverty-stricken farm girl goes to unbelievable lengths just t...

Yes, It’s Monday, or, A True Story in Which, in Spite of Much Effort, I Fail to Obtain a Pair of Orthopedic Shoes

Morning. Turn off the alarm. Remember that I have an 8:30 am doctor’s appointment. Let the dogs out. Shower and get ready. Leave around 8 am because the doctor’s office is in Mauldin. Drive to Mauldin, easily a twenty-minute trip, in typical Monday-morning traffic. Fun. I have been to two different doctors about my feet because I am having some diabetic neuropathy symptoms. One doctor said, Yep, you have neuropathy, and you need to see another doctor to get fitted with proper shoes. The other doctor measured my feet and had me step in a shoebox full of what seemed like floral foam to get an exact measure of each foot. Both appointments were weeks ago. Over the weekend I’ve been thinking about which doctor I’m supposed to see this morning—I know it is the one who ordered my shoes for me, the guy who had me step in floral foam. But I forget which office he is in. I finally conclude to my satisfaction that he is in the one in Mauldin. Hence I am driving to Mauldin this morning. I ...

George Washington’s First Inaugural Speech Found!

Image
The actual box in my actual attic with the actual documents from George Washington in it. Created with Copilot AI. Now here is an amazing coincidence! On the very day Donald Trump is slated to accept the Republican presidential nomination, on the very day , I say, I have found several amazing artifacts relating to George Washington, including the speech he gave when accepting the very first presidential nomination! Jacky and Patsy Washington, George and Martha ’s children. Seriously. No, this isn't a joke. That ’s really what they looked like. [public domain] While cleaning out my attic this morning at 4 (I don ’ t know why, I guess I was just in the mood), I came across an old cardboard box. To my amazement, in it I found several original documents from the 1700s that pertain to George Washington himself ! How the box got there, I have no idea, but items it includes will, I believe, result in a significant rewriting of American history. Dusty documents inside included the followin...
