    Hey, guys and gals, I start off with some great news--at least for me.  On Thursday, November 23, 2017, I was in the upper region of the Lower Peninsula of Michigan, and on that day, I discovered MeTV is now available to me on broadcast channel 10.3.  That means, for example, I can see Perry Mason at 11:30 p.m. on weekdays, and I can see other old television programs that I would rather see than almost all the programs provided on the main broadcast networks, which have a lot of crap (I will watch NCIS, since, for instance, it is not dark and violent or depressing most of the time)   By the way, I came across MeTV on 10.3 while looking to see which television station in the region was carrying America's Thanksgiving Parade (a production of WDIV-HD in Detroit), and I found it, and at one point Angela Davis and Beth sang duet during the program having the parade, and their voices irritated me a bit--they were not good--and at 10:00 a.m. (Detroit time), the program had a musical segment featuring members of a musical called School of Rock (which was scheduled to be at the Fisher Theatre in Detroit from April 4, 2017, to April 22, 2017), and the opening male singer for the School of Rock presentation was not good.  Incidentally, a few days previous to Thanksgiving Day, I spent time--pushed along by a friend--being an "elf" at the Detroit Opera House or, really, being a volunteer helping to set up Christmas decorations at the Detroit Opera House ("elf" is the informal name given to a person who helps out setting up the decorations).  And previous to that, I was in the audience for the official premiere of Love Never Dies, a stage production by Andrew Lloyd Webber, at the Fisher Theatre, and one problem with the production is there are no songs that will stick in the minds of people who see the show (such as the next day), and another problem with the production for me was the lead male was not a great singer--it was as if I could see him working, and the character was always moody or angry (there was no real nice moment for contrast)--but at least the boy was great, and the gal who played Peg was okay.  Get off the stage stuff, Vic!  Turn on the television stuff!

    By the way, Svengoolie is aired on MeTV on Saturday evenings, and that show has old horror movies for viewers, and I often see it.

    America's Thanksgiving Parade (of WDIV-TV) gets syndicated to other parts of the country, but not all the program gets aired at places not based in Detroit.  Where I was, the entire parade production was aired, as usual.  If you saw the production while not in the Detroit area, you may not have seen that Daniel Loepp, the CEO of Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Michigan, was interviewed.  Based on radio interviews on WJR-AM that I have heard of Daniel Loepp over the last few years, I can say that Daniel Loepp is a supporter of the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act of 2010, and he sounds--in words chosen--like a full-fledged socialist.  Daniel Loepp is a rotten man!  Also, WDIV-TV had Daniel Loepp as an interview guest on Hob Nobble Gobble on November 17, 2017.  [I urge you to see my document entitled The United States of America is Not "Healthy" Anymore and Never Will Be Again--Stupid Americans by the Millions and Rotten Politicians Like Having the Federal Government in Charge of Health Care, When It Should Never Be, which can be reached through this Not Healthy link.]

    Remember--Devin Scillian (an anchorman at WDIV-HD), who was one of the hosts America's Thanksgiving Parade, is a Cuba lover.

    Today, I do not think about television in Windsor, Ontario, Canada, since CBET-TV, Channel 9, cannot be picked up at the house in which I live when I am in the Detroit area (Detroit, Michigan, is across the Detroit River from Windsor).  In the 1950s, 1960s, and 1970s, I did think about Channel 9 (then called CKLW-TV, Channel), since I could see it, and the operators of the station felt it wise to broadcast to people living in Michigan.  For that matter, Channel 9 sort of disappeared--as far as I was concerned--in the 1980s, based on where I was living.  In the 1950s, 1960s, and 1970s, Channel 9 had a lot of programs that I watched, such as Bill Kennedy Showtime (which had Bill Kennedy hosting and showing of movies).  During the period, a lot of programs made in England were syndicated in the United States of America and Canada, and Channel 9 aired a lot of the programs.  Many programs from England that were made for children aired on the station, such as the series using marionettes made by Gerry Anderson and his associates, such as Stingray and Supercar.  From Saturday, September 12, 1964, through Saturday, December 26, 1964, Channel 9 aired a program featuring marionettes that was not made by Gerry Anderson and his associates (the program was seen weekly at 5:00 p.m., Detroit time), and the program was called Planet Patrol.  That was the title for the program for the Canadian and U.S. audiences.  In England, the show--which first aired in 1963--was called Space Patrol.  From roughly 1950 to 1955, ABC-TV (one of the four commercial television networks in the United States of America) had a television series for viewers called Space Patrol (which was not made with marionettes), which is a main reason Space Patrol (of England) became Planet Patrol (for the U.S. market and the Canadian market).  What was Planet Patrol?  It was not an enviromental-activism program, pushing the lie of manmade global warming killing Earth!  Yippie!  The series had stories, featuring the people of, mostly, Earth, Venus, and Mars.  Some of the main characters were Professor Haggarty, Cassiopeia, Husky (a man from Mars, who loves sausages), Colonel Raeburn, Marla, Professor Zeller, and Slim (a guy from Venus).  To me, the series seems to have been made with a lower budget than all the series made by Gerry Anderson and his associates.  Two persons who were heavily involved in making Planet Patrol were Roberta Leigh and Arthur Provis.  I have to admit here--I do not remember watching Planet Patrol on Channel 9 in 1964, when I was a boy.  I recently saw episodes of Planet Patrol on YouTube, as you can or as your little children can.  And instead of seeing so much of the crap for children on television today, see episodes of Planet Patrol (or Space Patrol) on YouTube.  Also, some episodes of Space Patrol (that U.S. series of  the 1950s) can be found on YouTube.  Take a look!

    Over the last several years, I have shown up as rotten a Detroit television historian known as Tim Kiska; for instance, his book entitled informally From Soupy to Nuts! is loaded with errors.  In addition, I have shown up as not so good a man who has documents on the Internet about Detroit television--Ed Golick (who has worked closely with Tim Kiska).  Here I have to show some bad information that Ed Golick has on the Internet about John Watts, who was the main host for a television series in Detroit of the 1950s entitled Traffic Court.  The bad stuff is at Ed Golick's website known as "detroitkidshow.com", and the bad material is on a document entitled Traffic Court with Judge Watts, and the bad material that I am focusing on at this time is the line of text that goes like this--"Traffic Court aired live every Friday at 6:00 PM., sponsored by the Chevorlet Dealers of Metropolitan Detroit.".  The day stuff and time stuff is wrong.  The series aired on WWJ-TV, Channel 4, from September 1949 to September 1957.  Over the years, the series was seen once a week, airing on a number of different days.  It was seen on Mondays, Tuesdays, Wednesdays, Thursdays, Fridays, and Saturdays, and it only aired a new times on Friday over the years, and the start times varied, airing at 5:30 p.m., 5:45 p.m., 6:00 p.m., 6:30 p.m., 6:45 p.m., 7:30 p.m., 7:40 p.m., 7:45 p.m., 9:30 p.m., 10:00 p.m., 10:30 p.m., and 10:45 p.m. (and I even found one time that it was on at 4:30 p.m.).  Ed Golick never did real research about the series.  By the way, there was a second version of Traffic Court, which was aired on WWJ-TV from 1965 to 1968, and that series only aired on Fridays and only at 7:00 p.m.

    In T.H.A.T. #162, I showed up Jim Caldwell (the coach of the Detroit Lions) and NFL football players as crap people, and one reason is they were protesting the National Anthem and, in essence, promoting as good a communistic man known as Colin Kaepernick, and I reported how Colin Kaepernick promoted as good the now-dead communistic Fidel Castro (a former leader of the rotten country known as Cuba).  I sent Jim Caldwell a version of T.H.A.T. #162, and he has yet to respond to me, and I say that shows more of why Jim Caldwell is in truth crap!  Hey, did you hear what young children in Cuba, especially girls, were made to recite on the anniversary of the death of Fidel Castro (last month)?  It was a poem entitled Song to Fidel.  A portion of the poem is--"...Thank you for making us men/thank you for caring for the names/that liberty has/thank you for your dignity/tank you for your loyal rifle/out pen and paper/your manly groin....".  Such garbage it is to have children say such things and to have children praise such as rotten man.  Such shit is all is!  Colin Kaepernick supports Fidel Castro as good, and, in essence, Jim Caldwell supported and supports Colin Kaepernick as good.  That shows Jim Caldwell is a piece shit of a man, and you must remember that when you see Jim Caldwell on television.  [Martel, Frances.  "On Death Anniversary, Children Forced to Praise Fidel Castro as Every Girl's Boyfriend."   Breitbart.com, 27 November 2017.]

    Did your favorite television news show cover this information?  In the previous edition of T.H.A.T., I talked about Puerto Rico, and I talked about how I have made some electrical things, such as an electrical circuit for a model of 40 Mile Point Lighthouse (which has so far taken me many days to put together to the point of construction where it is), and everything said in the previous edition of T.H.A.T. was said in relation to what it could take to get the electricity system of Puerto Rico back in order--I hinted it will take a long time.  Recently, I saw a news report from marketplace.org entitled "Meet the man bringing power back to Puerto Rico" [O'Leary, Lizzie.  "Meet the man bringing power back to Puerto Rico."  marketplace.org, 1 December 2017, 1:49 p.m.].  The story noted that the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers is one of the main entities working to get the electricity system on Puerto Rico back in order, and the article noted that the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers--to do what work it is scheduled to do--has ordered 40,000 telephone poles (or utility poles) and some 7,248 miles of cable.  I note that that means, for instance, some 40,000 trees have to be harvested and chemically treated (maybe work done on the mainland of the United States of America) and that then the poles have to be transported to where they will be set up and installed.  It does take a bunch of time to simply install one pole.  I have seen telephone poles installed, but I cannot remember how much time it takes to install one.  Pretend it takes about only one hour to install a telephone pole (which includes digging a hole).  That means it will take at least 40,000 man hours to install 40,000 telephone pole, and then lines have to be attached.  There are 24 hours in a day, which means one team of men might be able to install 12 poles in a day (the time includes traveling time and set up time, et cetera), and that means, it would take one team of men a long time to install 40,000 poles.  Do you have a mind capable to determining how much work it will take to install 40,000 telephone poles in Puerto Rico, using a bunch of teams.  By the way, I have seen news stories that note several hundred thousands persons are expected to leave Puerto Rico for the mainland of the United States of America, especially Florida, over the next few years, and many persons may never return to Puerto Rico to live.  That does not surprise me.  Also, I pass this along.  On YouTube, there is a video entitled "How It's Made Utility Poles", and it runs about five minutes, and you can see the process used to make utility poles (telephone poles), and the video might give you an idea how much time it might take to make 40,000 telephone poles.

    Since I published the previous edition of T.H.A.T., some changes have come to over-the-air broadcast channels of the Detroit area.  Diya TV (which, for one, featured programs for people tied to India) has disappeared from Channel 14.4, and the channel now has a shopping channel.  Vibrant TV (with, for instance, British-type programming) is now on Channel 14.6 (Rev'n is gone).  By the way, I never watched much of Diya TV, though it often showed pretty women through movies aired, because the singing done by women, which was offered regularly, was irritating to me--it was like screeching and it was high pitched and it was not pleasant to the ear.

    Announcement: I have several new documents on the Internet--at the website for The Hologlobe Press.  One document is entitled "Indigenous Peoples Day"--It is Not Deserved and Should Not Exist.  It can be reached by using this Indigenous link.  Another document is entitled Black-Racist U.S. Representative Frederica Wilson (a Democrat related to Florida) Shits on a Killed U.S. Soldier--Army Sergeant La David Johnson (a Black Man), which can be reached through this Frederica Wilson.  In relation to Frederica Wilson, you should see the video on YouTube entitled "John Kelly's EMOTIONAL White House Press Briefing 10/22/2017", which was posted on October 19, 2017, and it runs 21 minutes.  Yet another document is entitled The United States of America is Not "Healthy" Anymore and Never Will Be Again--Stupid Americans by the Millions and Rotten Politicians Like Having the Federal Government in Charge of Health Care, When It Should Never Be, which can be reached through this Not Healthy link.  Also I put a document that is under construction (at the time this document was published on the Internet) at the website for The Hologlobe Press so that I could show the documents listed in the bibliography (and it has a tie-in with this document), and that document is informally called A Collage of Corrupt, which can be reached through this Collage link.

    On Tuesday, November 21, 2017, I heard two pieces of news.  Mark R. Levin, who has hosted The Mark Levin Show on radio stations throughout the country for many years, will start hosting a new weekly television series (Life, Liberty & Levin) on the Fox News Channel on Sundays in February 2018.  Mark R. Levin is an anti-communist and an anti-socialist.  Also I heard a story about a pusher of communism and socialism as good--Charlie Rose.  What I heard is Charlie Rose--because of rotten behavior in relation to women--got fired from CBS-TV and PBS.  Some new piece of crap will very likely take up the television time once held by Charlie Rose.

    Matt Lauer, Garrison Keilor, Charlie Rose, Harvey Weinstein, Brian Williams, and Al Franken--These are only some of the "Democrats" (socialists and communists) of the entertainment world who have recently been shown to be rotten people, though many Americans will probably put up with seeing them or hearing them in the future through the media and even trusting them.  U.S. Senator Edward Kennedy (the dead man), U.S. Senator Al Franken, Bill Clinton (a former U.S. president, who was impeached while being a U.S. president for lying), and U.S. Representative John Conyers (whose wife Monica Conyers had had to spent time in prison for rotten behavior)--These are only some of the "Democrats" (socialists and communists) of the political world who have been shown to be rotten people, though many Americans will probably put up with seeing them or hearing them in the future and even trusting them.  The country has a collage of rotten people in entertainment and politics, the depths to which I know not.

    On December 2, 2017, I learned ABC News (such as ABC-TV news) had suspended Chief Investigator Brian Ross.  The man was suspended for providing fake news or lies, and the suspension was set to last four weeks.  In essence, in a news report for December 1, 2017, Brian Ross pushed out the lie that a man name Michael Flynn was going to testify that Donald Trump--while Donald Trump was running to be elected to the office of the U.S. presidency--told him to make contact with the Russians.  However, soon thereafter, ABC News had to say that the information was wrong, and ABC News reported that Donald Trump had told Michael Flynn to contact the Russians after Donald Trump had been elected to be the next president--and it is commonplace for a president-elect to make contact with foreign governments while the transition from one president to another is going on, and it is commonplace for foreign governments to contact the president-elect for the United States of America.  The event involving Brian Ross is not the only event that Brian Ross had done in a screwed-up manner [Note: Look it up.]

    On Tuesday, December 5, 2017, I saw an article in the Detroit Free Press that noted that the main news anchor for WXYZ-HD, Channel 7.1, was going to retire, and that man is Stephen Clark, who may have made the announcement on the television station the previous day while I was traveling long-distance in Michigan and did not watch the station.  The information in the article is no matter.  Then, on December 5, 2017, Frank Beckmann interviewed Stephen Clark on The Frank Beckmann Show, which is a weekday radio show broadcast on WJR-AM, 760, Detroit.  I learned something new about Stephen Clark.  Here is an aside--Look at T.H.AT. #67 to learn one reason why I think Stephen Clark is a rotten man--Stephen Clark promoted as good a national-health-care system for the country (which is either socialism or communism) in a series of reports on WXYZ-TV in 2009 [Note: To see T.H.A.T. #67, click on this T.H.A.T. #67 link].  Here is another aside--Look at the previous edition of T.H.A.T. to see the section about Cynthia McFadden and her rotten report about Copenhagen, Denmark, which is a city of idiots and socialists [Note: To see T.H.A.T. #163, click on this T.H.A.T. #163 link].  I stress--Copenhagen is a society of foolishness.  It was about 15 minutes into the ten o'clock hour in the morning (on December 5, 2017) when Frank Beckmann was interviewing Stephen Clark, and during the interview, Stephen Clark--the supporter of a rotten health-care system idea--reported that one daughter of his was currently in Copenhagen, Denmark.  Like father, like daughter--that came to my mind.  At about the end of the interview, Frank Beckmann played a recording of Stephen Clark performing one of Stephen Clark's song.  The song may have been called Walk for You.  It was a bad song, and Stephen Clark's performance was bad.  [Frank Beckmann praised the song and performance as good, and that was defective.]  During the interview, I learned Stephen Clark was now--once he was retired from Channel 7.1, actually--going to spend a lot of time in Nashville, Tennessee, as a song writer--of country tunes.  (By the way, the main news anchor for WDIV-HD, Channel 4.1, who is Devin Scillian, who is that Cuba lover, also performs country music.  Have you noticed how many young so-called "country performers" are supporters of socialists and communists?  Notice what country artists associate with whom (the "whom" being politicians).  Decades ago, real country music performers were skeptical of the politicians.  Things surely have changed.)  I shall not miss Stephen Clark.

    Did your favorite television newscaster pass along this information?  On Saturday, December 2, 2017, Barack Hussein Obama (the supporter communism and Sharia) was in Paris, France.  One thing that the rotten man said was--"...Not to generalize but women seem to have a better capacity than men do, partly because of their socialization....", and he was pushing out the idea that more women should be elected to government positions.  I note that women are usually bad candidates for political office, because women, who are highly social in nature and less logical in thinking than men are, are more likely to adopt the rotten principles of government known as socialism, communism, and Sharia (which is Islam law, the highly, highly rotten political system masquerading as a religion).  Once again Barack Obama was pushing--this time in Paris--more communism and socialism for the world.

    Incidentally, currently, the news director at WXYZ-HD, Channel 7, is a woman (Rhona LaVelle), and the news director at WDIV-HD, Channel 4.1, is a woman (Kim Voet), and I report that, to me, the more women have gotten into the news business, the more the news business has gone toward supporting socialism and communism and stories about emotions (and not real news)--the big push to get a lot of women in the news business took place in the 1970s and 1980s.  [Note: If you live in a small town, see how many employees are women at the local little newspaper.]

    I have reported in the past that we on Earth now live in "The Pseudo Information Age and the Age of Ignorance," since, for example, most media people in the world--and that includes most of the people working in the main media in the United States of America--are rotten people, pushing lies in reports and pushing socialism and communism as good, and in the United States of American many prominent television talk-show hosts teach ignorance, either through direct action or indirect action.  On Friday, November 11, 2017, Bill Maher pushed ignorant thought directly and indirectly on his weekly (usually) HBO series entitled Real Time with Bill Maher, and that is especially true when his guest was a man with a truly defective mind--Bill McKibben, who, for one, wrote a book informally entitled Radio Free Vermont.  The two men took part in about a seven-minute-long interview segment for viewers, and much of the interview was nonsense and illogical.  For example, Bill McKibben--who sounded like a communist--said--"...Forests are not absorbing carbon as quickly as the used to....".  A smart and good person should ask the self--What the hell is that?  Forests use carbon dioxide, and when there is carbon dioxide in the air, the forests can survive.  Now, the rotten people pushing the idea that man is killing the planet say that the killing is being done because man is putting carbon dioxide in the air.  Do you see the idiocy in Bill McKibben's statement?  Now, forests can become filled with old trees--their better days past--and that can result in forests not using as much carbon dioxide, and that is why it is good that man harvest trees and that old forests get replaced by new growth, maybe started by fire that burns down the old trees.  Bill McKibben followed the previous statement with-"...We're right on the edge.  It's the moment to be moving fast....".  So Bill McKibben followed idiocy with the idea that man must immediately cut way back on putting carbon dioxide in the air.  It is all idiocy   Bill Maher and Bill McKibben got on the idea of having believers in the lie of manmade climate change leading to the death of the planet work a bit to convince non-believers that the non-believers are bad, and one thought that Bill McKibben wanted believers to tell family members during the Thanksgiving holiday was--"You may not believe in global warming, but global warming believes in you.".  "Global warming" is not a living thing--it has not thought patterns and it does not think.  "Global warming" believes in nothing, or "global warming" cannot believe in you!  Bill McKibben's thoughts were like little-girl thoughts.  Later, in the interview, Bill Maher and Bill McKibben got on the idea that really the biggest cause of manmade global warming leading to the death of the planet can be attributed to mostly one group of people, and, for instance, Bill McKibben said--"...Rich white people may represent more of the environmental problem....".  Bill McKibben, who is a "white" man, pushed out the idea that the problem in rich white people.  I note that Bill McKibben did not note that the problem--though there is no problem really--could be be related to rich Arab people (such as in the Middle East) who sell oil or rich Chinese people using coal in great amounts in China or other rich people.  I add in jest--I guess there are no rich black people who could be using carbon-based products and putting carbon dioxide in the air.  By the way, regularly the studio audience clapped during the interview, showing their approval of the nonsense being said.  There was more idiocy said by Bill McKibben, but I will leave that alone.  I note that, in seven minutes, Bill McKibben passed along a number of defective ideas, so I can only imagine that his book entitled Radio Free Vermont and his other writings must have countless pieces of defective thought--Bill McKibben could not talk in a seven-minute period of his life and not pass on a number of pieces of crap.

    Here is more information about Bill McKibben, which shows more of the idiotic nature of the man, and it is probably something your favorite television newscast (which might be hosted by Stephen Clark or Devin Scillian, supporters of communistic or socialistic things) will never provide you.  In 1982, Bill McKibben received a Bachelor of Arts degree from Harvard University, which--I report once again--is a communistic-based university.  Notice Bill McKibben did not receive some type of Bachelor of Science degree, which could be tied to science.  A few years ago, Bill McKibben founded an entity called "350.org." (the name of which is tied to James Hansen and James Hansen's thoughts about 350 parts per million of carbon in the air that could mean death to the planet [Note: James Hansen was one of the frauds shown up the "Climategate" scandal]).  The themes of 350.org show idiocy of the people involved.  On November 2, 2017, I went to the website for "350.org", and I found a bunch of idiotic beliefs presented.   For example, the entity says--"We believe in a safe climate and a better future--a just, prosperous and equitable world built with the power of ordinary people.".  The statement comes right out of the themes of The Communist Manifesto, and the set of words is flap doodle, saying nothing concrete and logical.  The entity wants to "Keep carbon in the ground" and "Help build a new, more equitable zero-carbon economy.".  How does anyone build an "equitable zero-carbon economy" and get anything done or built, such as buildings and computers and trucks and roads and more.  The entity provides no logical statements about what is going to replace the use of carbon, such as oil and coal and wood and the like--it takes a lot of energy to run the world.  But the entity makes it clear that it wants to stop the world from using fossil fuels and it wants to have 100-pecent renewables.  And one of the stated principles is the entity believes in "climate justice."  "Climate justice"--it is all bullshit from communists and the nuts.  Really, "climate justice" is simply designed to extort money from developed countries (which have a lot of  money) and give the money to communistic entities.  A good and smart person can see Bill McKibben is tied in a collage of idiotic thoughts.

    And on November 21, 2017, I went to the Internet, such as YouTube, to see what other videos with Bill McKibben that I could easily find.  I found one--"Global Warming: Do the Math w/Bill McKibben"--that was from Russia Television (a television channel from a communistic network and a communistic country, Russia), and Thom Hartmann was interviewing Bill McKibben, and one thing that Bill McKibben pushed out in the video (which was made in 2013) was--"...Carbon dioxide just happens to be the mot dangerous thing on the planet...".  And, for instance, I came across Bill McKibben's 2013 movie (documentary supposedly) called Do the Math.  It production was available on YouTube, and the running time listed was about 45 minutes.  I began watch it.  I got exposed to a communistic propaganda pieces, featuring, for example, a parade of communists, such as Van Jones, who had to leave the Barack Obama administration for being exposed as a rotten man, and the video promoted as good a man named Jim Hansen, who had been exposed as a liar through the "Climategate" scandal.  In the early minutes of the so-called documentary, Bill McKibben put out the idea that the atmosphere is filling up with carbon dioxide, as it nothing like the plants all over the world are using any of it.  One thing that Bill McKibben said in Do the Math was--"...The biggest limit that we're running into may be we're running out of atmosphere in to which to put the waste products of our society, particularly the carbon dioxide that's the ubiquitous by-product of burning fossil fuels...".  Bill McKibben put down the producers of carbon-based products, such as the people in the oil industry, noting that only those producers are benefiting from carbon-based products, such as by making big money, and I note that Bill McKibben did not push out the idea how people who use the energy make money because they can run their homes and businesses and, in essence, reach for the stars, and the people who own stocks or bonds in the entities make money in the long run, allowing them to live lives, and the employees of the entities make money as employees, such as the operators of the drilling rigs.  I stopped watching the video at about the eight-minute-30-seconds mark, all based on what I had learned about Bill McKibben up to that point!  Bill McKibben is an ugly man with an ugly mind, and it is a sickness that shows up on the
television screen.

    On Sunday, December 3, 2017, I happened to catch an episode of Global 3000, a rotten series often seen on PBS-associated stations, and the episode was shown on WCMU-TV and the associated stations. Global 3000 pushes the crap of manmade global warming killing the planet on a regular basis.  There was a bunch of crap in the episode that I caught.  One portion was about Bangladesh, a country located in the Far East region of the globe.  The segment was about global warming affecting Bangladesh, making viewers believe the country was being killed by rising water caused by man.  By the way, at the time the program was on the air, I was in a house located along Lake Huron, where, over the last ten years, I have watched the level of Lake Huron rise and fall, and this year, the water is up, and the water has pulled out plants near the edge of the water and taken away sand, and I know the rise and fall of the water has been taking places for decades, and in some decades past, the water has been higher than it is now.  What I really found interesting in the program is the program noted out corrupt the government in Bangladesh is and how money is wasted on building projects.  And all though Bangladesh has a corrupt government, people in the United States of America are willing to think the government of Bangladesh really has the good of the world at heart through supporting international climate laws and treaties.  Most of the countries in the world have rotten leaders, and even the United States of America is starting to fit in well with that rule.  Even though Global 3000 pointed out government nonsense in Bangladesh, it is still program that is mostly pushing bullshit!

    On Sunday, December 3, 2017, I turned on the television in the morning, and I was immediately exposed to a roundtable discussion on Meet the Press with Chuck Todd, which usually has communists and socialists present, used to push socialism and communism as good.  Right then, a man named Mike Murphy said--"..We are living in the first screwball presidency in history....".  Mike Murphy is at least a socialist, though often referred to as a "Republican strategist"--for the socialistic Republican Party hierarchy, such as the highly communistic U.S. Senator John McCain and U.S. Senator Mitch McConnell.  Almost every time I turn on Meet the Press with Chuck Todd, I hear crap!

   Announcement for the novice again (reworked in May 2017): To get useful television-delivered news or Internet-delivered news, WorldNetDaily.com, "The Drudge Report," and CNS News (which is on the Internet and which was launched on June 16, 1998), since the entities do not blindly support Barack Obama-type people (communists and Shariaists), as do CNN, MSNBC, NBC-TV, CBS-TV, and ABC-TV (Note: To learn about bad journalism, you might tune in to CNN, MSNBC, NBC-TV, CBS-TV, and ABC-TV from time to time to see how they differ from the better places mentioned).  I note that Fox News Channel is evolving into a rotten channel, becoming like those that I have put down in this paragraph.  If you are unclear of my intentions, I say in different words that you should boycott CNN, MSNBC, NBC-TV, CBS-TV, and ABC-TV and even now much of what is on the Fox News Channel and hope they lose more ratings and advertising revenues, since they are expendable, and it is time for you to find the guts to be mean and heartless and cancel them--since they are hurting you.  [Note: Everyone in the Democratic Party in the country is rotten, and the Republican Party establishment has shown itself to be socialistic and communistic within the last few years, and only a few of the rotten people are U.S. Senator Mitch McConnell, U.S. Senator John McCain, Jeb Bush, and Chris Christie.]

    Hey, keep this in mind.  In 1954 and early 1955, WJBK-TV, Channel 2, had a regular local newscast for viewers on Saturday evenings (either at 11:00 p.m. or 10:30 p.m.), and it was called The American News.  Today, a lot of newscasts on television could never be called The American News, focusing on pushing socialism and communism and lies (especially in relation to the fake news story about the Russians concluding with Donald Trump to corrupt the election of November 2016) or focusing on holding back true facts about big events.

    Oh, here is something else related to YouTube.  In November 2017, I saw a number of videos featuring Paul Sellers, who does woodworking things; for example, he gives information about using wood planes (a favorite of which for Paul Sellers is a "number four").  If you want to see woodworking stuff, look for videos on YouTube featuring Paul Sellers.

    In the previous edition of T.H.A.T., I did not put in a Looking at the Movies section, in which I urge you to see one of the movies that were broadcast on Detroit-area television in the late 1940s or early 1950s, but, for one, I promoted the idea of seeing episodes of The Amos 'n Andy Show (of the 1950s) instead.  Well, I have Looking at the Movies for this edition of T.H.A.T..  In the very early 1950s, one of the movie hosts on Detroit-area television was Bill Kennedy.  He left Detroit in 1953, and he returned to Detroit in 1956.  Before Bill Kennedy would become well known for hosting movies on television for several decades, starting in the late 1950s, such as on Bill Kennedy Showtime and Bill Kennedy at the Movies, Bill Kennedy hosted a movie show on CKLW-TV (Channel 9) called Going Our Way, the first episode of which was shown on August 10, 1956, which featured a movie called The Gangster (with actor Barry Sullivan).  The movie show ran weekly on Fridays at 1:00 p.m. for a number of months.  On Friday, September 28, 1956, the featured movie was Casbah, which had been released to movie theaters in 1948.  Casbah is the movie for you to see as part of Looking at the Movies this time  The movie can be found on YouTube.  Some of the performers in the movie were Tony Martin and Peter Lorre.  Pretend it is September 28, 1956, and see Casbah as if it were being shown on CKLW-TV, Channel 9 (of Windsor, Ontario Canada).

    Remember: The Prisoner with Patrick McGoohan was a television show that was produced across the pond and shown on CBS-TV in the late 1960s, and I urge you to find The Prisoner on DVD, maybe from a library, and watch it, and you should show it--all the episodes--to teenagers, or buy it as a present for teenagers.

Stay well!

    P.S.: You are urged to see my document entitled One of "The Rules of Man"--A Rule About Health Care that No Politician May Supersede with Law, which can be reached through this Rule1 link.  I have deduced that all the Democrats and most Republicans support the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act of 2010 and have no intention of killing it, though it should be killed for violating, for one, "The Rules of Man."  For example, Republicans Jeb Bush and Christ Christie support the rotten law, and that is one reason that I define them as stupid men and not men who are good enough--in this day and age--to be the U.S. President.  I note that the "mandate"--which forces everyone to buy government-approved health-care insurance--violates one of "The Rules of Man," and it is a rule that is attacked in the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act of 2010.  Anyone who supports the "mandate" is not a good enough person or a smart enough person to be the U.S. president--the mandate is "enslavism," and the "mandate" allows government people--who are often and usually bad people, as history shows--decide what health care a person can get, and that is bad.
