You snuck in here on me, Thanks Texpat.
I’ll just repost my earlier one;
Will somebody call Texanadian and tell him to come get his weather? It’s been here on my place since late last week. And talk about a drunk weekend, 17 on Saturday morning, 24 Sunday and now 20 this morning. He also needs to check that fence on the south forty.
Mornin’ Gang

Good morning gang. I caught up on the yesterday thread before starting over here, so I know that I’m not first up this morning. A little warmer out here, but temp just dropped below freezing here before dawn. Coffee shop is still closed this morning, so one more day I’ll have to drink my own coffee. I’ll probably get outside and try to empty the ice from the water trough and refill it as well as prowling around outside looking for other chores to take care of. Don’t have any other news to report on so far, so you all have a great day.

I think I’ll repost my other one;
Young and Healthy ABC News Executive Suddenly Found Dead at 37 Due to Mysterious Heart Attack.
ABC News executive producer Dax Tejera reportedly died of a heart attack at the age of just 37.
Tejera was a healthy, young man when his sudden death occurred. He was an Ivy League graduate of Dartmouth College and produced ABC’s Sunday show “This Week with George Stephanopoulos.”
OK just let me adjust my Tin Foil Hat and close the Screen Room Door, I hate to be rude here but did it, could it have anything to do with the Jab?
From comments; Absolutely tragic, Dax Tejera, Excecutive producer of ABC News, died of a heart attack at age 37. Incredible the number of young people who are having sudden death. Something is very wrong. May his soul rest in peace. ~Dr. Alejandro Diaz

Buyer’s Remorse in Reverse
April 8, 2021
Mike SampsonMost everyone has experienced buyer’s remorse with the purchase of an expensive item such as a vehicle or real estate, or perhaps any item. Buyer’s remorse can happen when one must make a difficult decision about a purchase.
Those of us who are firearms enthusiasts may have experienced just the reverse when not making a purchase we now regret. I have several times, but not buying a Winchester Model 88 in .358 Winchester forever haunts my mind.
Back in 1966 I had a summer job, and my supervisor knew I was interested in firearms and he had a relative who wanted to sell a .358 Model 88. He gave me the opportunity to take the rifle for a range test, and a box of 200-grain Winchester shells came with the offer. I knew nothing about the rifle or the caliber, but the classic looks of the 88’s lever action intrigued me. I already had a Remington 700 in .270 Winchester and had begun reloading with a simple Lee Loader.
My Saturday venture to the range went well, accuracy was fine, and I liked shooting over the open sights, knowing well this was a short-range hunting rifle. I weighed the pros and cons, and the main con was the price of $100. Being in college and making about $2 an hour on my summer job, I decided to pass on the purchase. Bad mistake!
Afterward, and especially when I began hunting elk, the remorse really set in. I always kept an eye out for other 88s and I found one in .243 Winchester at a 1999 auction in Jefferson City, MO. I was able to get a look at the rifle beforehand, and an open action in the sun showed the bore had been neglected and was pitted. I thought about offering a bid, but when the price hit $600, that was too rich for me. The rifle finally sold for $750.
There is abundant historical information on the 88s. An article in the American Rifleman in 2016 provides a great rundown on the rifle and calibers offered. First offered in .308 Winchester in 1955, “The Model 88 was a completely new design in lever actions. It had no visible hammer; the bolt rotated when operated by the lever, locking up with three lugs just aft of the chamber similar to a bolt action. It fed from a 4-shot detachable box magazine.
“Its 22″ barrel—a 19″ carbine was available as well—had a featherweight profile leading to the rifle’s 7 1/4-lb. weight. Cartridges ejected from the side, allowing a scope to be mounted center over the bore. To cap it off the one-piece walnut stock with a pistol grip borrowed much of its lines from the bolt-action rifles of the day, sleek and fast handling.
“A year after its initial introduction Winchester included chamberings in .243 and .358 Win. —a year before including them in the Model 70. In 1963 the .284 Win. chambering was included in an effort to provide the flat trajectory of the .270 Win. in a short-action cartridge.”
Remorse really sets in when one considers the price the 88s fetch today, with prices between $500 and $1,000 with quality models trading much higher. Take a look at WINCHESTER 88 New and Used Price, Value, & Trends 2021 to get an idea of current pricing on some calibers. And I sure have not found a .358 since my 1966 missed chance.
There is comprehensive Model 88 production information and caliber dates at Winchester Model 88 and there were 256,022 rifles manufactured. Data on the .358 shows that in 1962 the .358 was discontinued.
“There were approximately 35,636 in .358s produced between 1956 through 1962. All .358s had hand cut checkered stocks.” The production information adds that in “1965 – 473 Winchester 358s were manufactured as parts clean up with impressed basket weave stocks and shipped to Canada and are uncatalogued and extremely rare.” Buyer’s remorse hit even harder when I saw that data and small total of .358s produced.~
My Dad loved the model 88 but I was a Savage 99 fan and they do resemble each other, modern looking lever guns. BTW; The 99 was way ahead of it’s time being introduced in 1899 with hope of selling them to the US Army but they chose the Winchester 1895 one of Teddy Roosevelt’s favorites.

Texpat, I refreshed twice before I posted earlier and no Monday thread but maybe my Firefox is retarded? Next time I’ll close the page and reopen I guess. That said, you know I don’t do computers. 😉
I just remembered El Gordo posted on yesterday’s thread also. -
Good Morning, Gang… It’s a balmy 29 here in the woods. We might actually have running water… Sis in Love said that they had none yesterday while we were out on our annual Christmas visit to the coast. Too cold to get out of the car on the ferry so I’m not sure whether there were any porpoises sticking their snouts up above the water line or not…

The ‘net has been slow and weird all weekend. Heightened security everywhere and 4.869 Billion kids and overgrown children playing every kind of new video game simultaneously and it’s a miracle the whole damned system hasn’t crashed. Even after three cache cleanings and restarts, I was experiencing intermittent cutting out and slow page loads.

I’m sorry to have to report bad news, but have we an important “gone missing” story to report.
Readers of WUWT and millions of climate skeptics have read this article before, and in fact it is likely one of the most cited articles ever that illustrates the chutzpah and sheer hubris on display from a climate scientist who was so certain he could predict the future with certainty. Dr. David Viner of the Climatic Research Unit who famously said:
From the Independent’s most cited article: Snowfalls are now just a thing of the past by Charles Onians:
However, the warming is so far manifesting itself more in winters which are less cold than in much hotter summers. According to Dr David Viner, a senior research scientist at the climatic research unit (CRU) of the University of East Anglia,within a few years winter snowfall will become “a very rare and exciting event”.
“Children just aren’t going to know what snow is,” he said.
It seems however, that after over 15 years, the Independent has removed that article, and the URL now comes up like this…
Astute observers on the internet believe this may have finally caused one of the most linked stories in modern history to disappear:
-
The long march through the Established Institutions…
For years, two administrators at Thomas Jefferson High School for Science and Technology (TJ) have been withholding notifications of National Merit awards from the school’s families, most of them Asian, thus denying students the right to use those awards to boost their college-admission prospects and earn scholarships. This episode has emerged amid the school district’s new strategy of “equal outcomes for every student, without exception.” School administrators, for instance, have implemented an “equitable grading” policy that eliminates zeros, gives students a grade of 50 percent just for showing up, and assigns a cryptic code of “NTI” for assignments not turned in. It’s a race to the bottom.
An intrepid Thomas Jefferson parent, Shawna Yashar, a lawyer, uncovered the withholding of National Merit awards. Since starting as a freshman at the school in September 2019, her son, who is part Arab American, studied statistical analysis, literature reviews, and college-level science late into the night. This workload was necessary to keep him up to speed with the advanced studies at TJ, which U.S. News & World Report ranks as America’s top school.

Texpat 0905:
At a bare minimum, the principal and the other administrator need to have the crap beat out of them repeatedly for this outrage. Secondly, they need to be personally financially liable for the additional money that the parents had to spend because they were not notified. Thirdly, they and all in cahoots with them need to be barred from ever serving in a public capacity again.
Unless and until this kind of behavior is both painful and expensive PERSONALLY, it will continue.
Equal outcomes every time is absurd on its face; proponents of same need to be barred from any educational activities.

Standing is clearly no problem here and damages seem to be equally obvious. The real issue is changing the educational culture and not collecting some cash for these affluent families to make it all go away. Most lawyers don’t really want to file suit and go to trial – it’s a lot of hard work. What they actually prefer to do is send demand letters, threaten litigation and then sit down and negotiate a settlement.
This needs a lot more “light of day” and the only way to do that is to file a “mass torts lawsuit” against the school district and individual administrators. The legal defense expenses and public humiliation are all part of the battlefield prep. Unfortunately, it’s not up to me.

Up to about 37 out here by now, but still looking for more warming, and it may stay above freezing tonight. Canceled flights seem to be in the news today for some reason. We were notified at least 2 weeks ago about this coming winter storm, or at least those who pay attention to such things were, so I’m just having a hard time coming up with more than just a modicum of sympathy for them. They decided to fly on the busiest day of the year, and every year the stories are the same, yet they continue to do it.
I was going to wait until we got cold weather in February to assemble my greenhouse. It purpose is really to deal with new seedlings and not necessarily to preserve existing plants. It’s still a little early to start planting seeds I think. So no real need for the greenhouse just yet. I think my holly plants came out OK as did my rose bushes – all of which are in pots. Guess we’ll find out in a few days how everything held up. Some of my in ground plants on the south side seem to have gotten nipped, but they certainly do not look dead. Maybe there will be survivors there as well.
A couple of years ago I broke up a bunch of iris plants that mother had planted that had just gone rogue and were taking over the yard and also part of the back 40. I gave away most of the stuff I took up, but I planted some along the west fence line which is mostly bee brush and cactus plants growing out of rocks. Well, one batch caught hold and took off, so this year I broke some of it out and planted several tubers along my front flower bed, again on the south side. Most of that stuff appears to have taken a toe hold, and while they also got nipped, most appear to be doing OK and should take off in the spring. So my point is that my theory that things planted on the south side of the house are protected from the bitter cold winds, get heat from the house that leaks out, get radient heat from the white brick which stores it up from the sunshine emanating from the southern sun in winter, and generally does not require as much protection as other plants might. Now obviously, any sensitive or very tender plants need care, but that iris seems almost indestructible anyway, so hopefully it will do well. When it flowers, it usually happens right around Easter and has beautiful purple orchid like flowers.
Since our winter cold wave is just about over, it’s never too soon to start planning for spring.

Morning, gang. I was reading a story about fatalities during the SnowPocalypse, and discovered that a resident of Buffalo, NY, is called a Buffalonian.
-
Are the female Buffalo residents called Buffalonianettes?
-
This is your intellectual class today. It is rampant with liars who have no shame in trying to take down the man who is probably the most prominent black physicist in America.
The story begins with a group of scientists who oppose NASA’s decision to name its new deep-space telescope after the agency’s 1960s-era leader, James E. Webb (1906–1992). Their claim is that Webb’s name is unsuitable for the honour because he persecuted gay government employees when he worked at the State Department during the so-called Lavender Scare of the early Cold War. But as Powell reports, the case against Webb hasn’t survived close scrutiny.
In this regard, Powell points readers to an investigative project by famed astrophysicist Hakeem Oluseyi, who formerly acted as NASA’s space science education lead and now serves as president of the National Society of Black Physicists. Oluseyi fact-checked writers such as Matthew Wills, who in 2019 falsely claimed that Webb “oversaw” the purge of gay men at the State Department. In his January 2021 report, Oluseyi demonstrated that this incorrect claim was based on mistaken identity: As it turns out, the departmental bureaucrats who led the campaign against “homosexualism” (as some bigots then called it) were actually John E. Peurifoy and Carlisle H. Humelsine.
Oluseyi similarly debunked a 2015 Forbes article by science writer Matthew Francis, entitled The Problem With Naming Observatories For Bigots, which reported that Webb had stated, “it is generally believed that those who engage in overt acts of perversion lack the emotional stability of normal persons.” As Oluseyi demonstrates, that quote appeared in a 1950 report prepared by Senate committees on which Webb didn’t serve.
The most vicious cancel culture campaigner is a woman physicist who, in addition to her mental and emotional disturbances, is immune to any offers of truth.
Let’s hope this classic angry, black woman gets the help she needs.

48 degrees here in south Alabama! Whoo Hooo a few more degrees and we’ll be back to civilized temperatures!

About the same temp here in centex. I just went out and broke the ice on the water trough and filled it to the brim, so the animals can drink more easily now. They were apparently drinking overnight even though there was an ice cap on top. Everything else looks about normal for winter time.

Today’s Hamousonian
Who the hell is that edition:
We’re in a situation that nebulous generalities will not get us out of.
Freeze spending at current levels and cut 1% overall per year over the next six years. That sounds pretty specific to me.
On the other hand, I’m not sure I could ever take seriously anyone with a name like Cornelius Harvey McGillicuddy IV

LD & Family are due here any minute for a visit. Here’s the C&C link for today. It’s a dive into the failure of the jab and an explanation as to why it fails to generate the “right” antibodies.
In other words, the researchers found as time goes on, vaccinated people relied more on IgG4 — the allergy antibody — than virus fighter IgG3, whereas it was the exact opposite for unjabbed people. Something seems to be suppressing IgG3 in jabbed people, and the body appears to be compensating by recruiting the available but imperfect IgG4 type.
That phenomenon could help explain the expert-baffling chart we saw last week from the Cleveland Clinic study, which found that jabbing increased the risk of reinfection.
/snip
To put it simply, this antibody class shift is bizarre, unprecedented, and a very troubling sign that vaccinated people — especially repeatedly dosed people — are somehow losing their IgG1 and especially IgG3 response in favor of IgG4. It’s not just the reduction of the two effective neutralizing antibody types, either. IgG4, since it is designed for allergies, doesn’t remove the foreign proteins so much as teach the body to “tolerate” or “ignore” them.
/snip
Specifically, whereas IgG1 and IgG3 types are “pro-inflammatory,” which means they trigger the body’s immune-system high alert system, the IgG4 type is “anti-inflammatory,” which means it tells the immune system to stand down. Which is the opposite of what you really want, when you’re fighting an infection.
/snip
Not only are the boosted dying in increasing numbers, but they are carrying the virus longer. Houston, we have a problem.
/snip
Most vaccine recipients are victims. They were manipulated or coerced into taking something without informed consent, a drug pushed by reassuring government agencies, agencies they had every reason to trust, because they paid good tax money to over-fund those agencies and handsomely reward the bureaucrats running them.
We need to both help the victims as well as bring accountability to the culpable.

There is no Democrat or Republican way to teach reading. There is a correct, scientifically based way and an incorrect, guess-work-based way. It just so happens that conservatives have long championed the correct way, and progressives have long been enchanted by the incorrect way. With rampant learning loss, and states still flush with COVID-19 relief cash, it’s time to follow the Deep South’s lead and focus on the science of reading.
If public education manages to turn the corner, history may record that journalist Emily Hanford did more to promote literacy than the combined might of American philanthropy. That’s because her recent, compelling podcast series homed in on the single most important — yet somehow broadly ignored — policy question: Why do so many schools get basic literacy instruction wrong?
I cannot believe we are still having to fight this war. No matter how much you disprove the flat earthers, they never admit they’re wrong. You have to run them out of the building.

Just had a lovely visit with kids and grandkids. My neighbors left their gate open, which they know is an invitation for me to visit, so instead of walking to the corner and back we went across the street. Sweet neighbors are always asking about LD and her family, so it was good that we got to visit. Their daughter and mine were friends for years, and they have two grandsons close in age to our granddaughters. They have a game room, big swing set, go cart…lotsa toys. So the girls got to play while the old folks visited.
Good times.

It is pathetic in America when it is left up to the states to proclaim the truth the federal government refuses to acknowledge.
Two state commissions issued reports on anti-Semitism this month. The Texas Holocaust, Genocide, and Antisemitism Advisory Commission (THGAAC) and Virginia’s Commission to Combat Antisemitism evaluated the level and impact of Jew hatred in their respective states and offered suggestions for how the states can oppose it more effectively. In particular, both emphasized the role the Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions movement (BDS) plays in fomenting anti-Semitism and included opposing BDS prominently among their suggestions.

I was surprised that one of my gifts was such a home run with the girls. They are both engaged in local productions, so they both have rehearsal schedules along with their school schedules, etc.
I gave them little planners so they could write down their schedules and keep track of birthdays and such. Oh, man, once I gave them pencils, those two had their noses in their planners, filling them up with their schedule.
I told my daughter it might make them feel more grown up. I guess I was right. LD2 told me that she really liked it.
I’m just happy that she’s happy.

I am recovering from however-many-days of misery from little or no water, no convenient hot water, air temp indoors not quite satisfactory, etc. But amazingly I just had 2 1/2 days of almost NO leg pain. I just got up from a 2-hour nap with a little bit of leg pain, but much preferable to the roll-outa-bed-screaming that I had some mornings and some after-naps. I’m hoping the orthopedic doc will have some ideas about this for me. Appt is Thursday afternoon.

I just stopped by the grocery store briefly. My keto diet allows me to eat eggs, and I do eat eggs daily. I’ve been complaining about the ever increasing price of eggs lately, but I typically buy several dozen at a time, so I really don’t pay attention to the prices regularly. Long story short – last year a 5 dozen box of large eggs at Walmart was around $9. A few weeks ago, I was looking at the price locally, and it was $25 for that same 5 dozen box. Today, that 5 dozen box of eggs is over $41. An 18 pack now costs more than a 5 dozen pack just a few weeks ago, logging in at $13. Wow, that’s incredible. Looks like I’ll swap the eggs for steak or something cheaper.

We were invited over to my wife’s new aunt and uncle’s house for Christmas dinner yesterday for ribeyes! It was very good.

Our gift to them was a dinner at Taste of Texas at some near future date. I don’t even know if Edd and Nina (?) even allow Heinz 57 in the building! Or if we will get out of there alive if the crowd hear the request!

El G – just a few reasons why I buy direct from the eggery, by the case, and prep ’em for long term storage.
I have dozens of oiled eggs in cartons right now, since I can’t dehydrate them until my back is better. I can’t stand long enough for all that cracking, can’t lean at all over the counter or to pour the scrambled eggs, etc. So, oiled eggs it is. Hubby won’t have to pay retail price for eggs while I stranded on the couch.

It was 2003.
I told the story yesterday to the kids about taking Her Highness to Washington DC on a business trip when I first met her. We stayed in a beautiful, four-star hotel in Tyson’s Corner in Virginia right across the Potomac River. I was really trying to impress her. On Saturday afternoon, we walked across the street to the Capital Grille which at that time was the ultimate power lunch joint for Washington Swamp Dwellers. The crowd was light and it was Kentucky Derby weekend so the bar was full, but not so much the dining area.
After the races, we moseyed into the dining room. We had a couple of drinks, some great hor d’oeuvres and ordered steaks – the ribeye au poivre for me and the filet mignon for her. HH tried to convince the waiter she wanted it very well done and I tried gently to explain to her it was impossible to make a filet burnt as he smiled patiently.
The steaks arrived looking spectacular and then…she looked at the waiter and asked for a bottle of Worcestershire Sauce as I tried to find a discreet way to crawl under the table. He had to go behind the bar and find a little bottle they kept for Bloody Mary mixes. The waiter gave me the secret men’s sympathy look/nod. This was a woman who had presented herself in every way to be educated, urbane and sophisticated.
I had been fooled by an impostor.

A dollop of horse radish on prime rib is acceptable but that is the only civilized beef cut that I will add anything to. A properly cooked steak should require nothing more than a knife and a fork.

El Gordo’s Egg Dilemma
There were over 40 million chickens, mostly layers, that had to be killed in the last half of 2022 because of the other biohazard attack on America from China which was the last round of Asian bird flu. Between the Chicom viruses and Biden’s staggering incompetence you’re lucky eggs don’t cost $100 a dozen and sell as some kind of exotic delicacy.

I cannot remember who I was arguing with about an us v/s China scenario years ago. I said then that our next chance of getting into a military fight with China would be just about right now. I also said China would catch up and possible surpass us militarily. I got told how great our military is. Well now is was and it ain’t no more.

This story about a young mother who was desperately trying to feed her family and was working for Door Dash and stopped to pick up an order for a customer made national news. She had twin 5 month old boys in the back seat and some insane woman stole the car.
But days later, police were still searching for Kason and that stolen car.
Disappointed they hadn’t found the baby yet, El and Anderson stopped at an Indianapolis shopping plaza to eat and brainstorm where he might be.
These two cops had been driving around Indiana all day looking for this baby and stolen car when they finally decided to stop and grab something to eat. They get back in their cop car and look across the parking lot when…
The officers spotted the car they had been looking for in front of Papa Johns Pizza right across the parking lot from where they had stopped to eat. They found Kason in the back seat.
“Having 23 years in law enforcement, these are the moments that I live for and I’m sure other officers live for as well. This is my why. This is why I get out of bed every morning and put this uniform on,” Anderson said.
There were a lot of people praying for this baby and I say they worked.

Years ago, someone taught me the delight of mixing 2 parts ketchup, 2 parts Heinz 57 sauce, and 1 part Worcestershire sauce in a tiny bowl, and dipping my bite of steak in just a little bit… That way the sauce doesn’t cool the rare steak off too much, and you don’t get too much on one bite and none on the next… Squawk just pretends he doesn’t see me do it 😉

Not quite bedtime out here yet,but not that far away. Mh, if you are able, the best way to check for a water leak is to go to your water meter and see if the little wheel thingy is moving around any at all. If it is moving, you have a leak somewhere. Not a drop gets through that meter without moving that little spinner. That’s where I check first if I have any doubts. Waiting for a great big water bill is waiting too long.
OK, in case I don’t make it back this evening, you all have a good one.

Im sure the gauge is all covered in muck.

Heck – I had to DDG what DDG stands for

Oh. I also use it to make some homemade red sauce for boiled shrimp.

And y’all give me down the river about chili with beans. Ketchup on steak is an abomination punishable by flame broiling at Burger king.

Long live DDG. Haven’t used Google in years. I hope they die.

Ummmmmmmmmmmmmmm is ketchup on Waffle House hash browns allowed?
(askin fo a friend) 🙂

In my book, absolutely ketchup goes on hash browns. I guess the only weird thing I do sometimes is saltine crackers and ketchup in chili like my mama does. I don’t know if that is a West Texas thing, a poor share cropper thing or what but it’s good. Normally I do Fritos and cheese though.

I checked with my cousin Snarff Box. He eats at Waffle House prolly 6 days a week. 7th day he is recovering from a hangover. Anyway it is his opinion that in lieu of Tobasco Sauce, ketchup on Waffle House hash browns is acceptable. He said he hates to see it but can understand why.

I guess I never have cared how other people like to eat their food. No skin off my nose, ya know???
Wow, I liked having hot water in the kitchen tonight.
I’ve put a short shopping list together for tomorrow: need to pick up a scrip at CVS, and get a few things at a grocery store. I’ll do that at the Food Doodle that is right across the street from my CVS, then I’ll be back home in no time at all.
Today was Day 3 during which I had either NO leg pains, or just a few and minor. Hope there is still something going on for the bone doc to look at on Thursday!
Good night, all y’all!
