California sends a posse (sic) to President Trump’s inauguration
mainThe only group from California to participate in the presidential inauguration is…
Merced County Sheriff’s Posse – Hilmar, California.
They’re holding a fund-raiser in Merced to solicit donations. A posse rally.
Here is the updated list of inauguration performers, and decliners.
Trump that.
Rumours this morning of Paul Anka, a long-time friend. If true, I apologise on behalf of all Canadians. (Not that many Canadians these days will even have heard of him — in fact has anybody heard of him in donkey’s years?).
Allegedly he will perform a version — with new lyrics — of My Way. Seems appropriate. It was certainly nobody else’s.
fake news, I hope
CBC radio mentioned it but the sources were Perez Hilton and The Daily Beast. Apparently they are old friends, which given the sleaze factor seems quite likely. There are other gossip sources but I don’t know the common denominator.
He has declined, according to a more reliable source:

Clever excuse.
Someone named Toby Keith is apparently in, and I read that Jennifer Holliday will be there too.
Not quite A-list.
But Canada off the hook — not that Anka identifies with it. Street names wold have been changed if he had gone through with it.
Stop press! The Springsteen cover band is out- they say it would be disrespectful to Bruce. Talk about stating the bleeding obvious.
I remember Paul Anka!
The CBC is now reporting Paul Anka is out.

I’m curious why Lebrecht added the editorial “sic” after the word “posse” in the article headline. Is there an error the headline is quoting?
Can’t imagine. Maybe because to many people it implies a group coming to arrest him (no such luck). But I think its colloquial use as a gang of pals or a group of any sort is in wide use nowadays.
And as long as he was around, why didn’t he delete the doubled post about Anthea’s music activities? It’s a perfectly good item but it’s not the story so good it has to be told twice.
Perhaps they meant “pussy”…
Just grabbing at straws.
Touché….hey dont touch!!!
You seem obsessed with sex. Poor thing.
not obsessed with sex, only it’s nomenclature.

Brexit. Trump. Nationalism rampant. Progressivism on its heels. Ah, these are glorious times. Keep on chirping, Norman!
Giddy-up!!
