Well That was brutal, the Georgia Bull Dawgs whooped TSU Horned Frogs 67-7, eviscerated one reporter said and I guess he was right. I was hoping for a better outcome but TSU don’t have anything to be ashamed of, they were simply out played and did make it to the finals #3 in the country.
Mornin’ Gang
-
Well POOF! And it was gone?!?! My #2 not quarantined just gone.
It was about Biden hiding Documents when he was VP and the fact that he’ll NOT have any trouble, no armed FBI Thugs raiding his Beach House at 3 AM.
Look it up I can’t link it.
-
Morning gang. I gave up on the game of the century at halftime last night and came home. Looking at the final score, looks like it was more of the same. And I have to assume the Dawgs took their foot off the gas in the later part of the game or it would have been worse. TCU just being there was a big plus for their program and shows that some of these private schools can compete if they are willing to commit the work, the money, and the support to their programs.,
Might try to do a little house work today, but first, I’m going to TOK for the Olde Pharts Coffee crowd. Headed up into the 80’s today I hear. Every spring the weather wants to trick the plants and trick me into doing my spring work only to blast it all with a big freeze right at the last minute. It’s way too early to start trimming around since winter has barely gotten started.
OK, you all have a great day out there. More later as it develops.

I agree ELG, but we have February to deal with then we are home free.

Re: OC
Yeah, we’ve come so far that, yesterday, it was reported that the Biden administration is poised to outlaw gas stoves and ranges.
-
They’re trying to figure out how to outlaw fire, period.
-
Tis so foggy out here in the woods that Baby Bro’s yard light next door looks like a little bitty nite-lite – kinda like the OC picture…

Yo Shannon, I tried the baking soda thing in the hamburger meat making Sloppy Joes last night. The hamburger meat cooked up incredibly, nice texture, did not even have to drain it but it had an odd flavor. You ever had that? Maybe I used too much? I put 1 3/4 tsp, 2lbs meat.
-
Yes, that is too much.
They recommend 3/4 of a teaspoon dissolved in a little water for 1.5 lbs.
Which seems impossible to incorporate but it works.
And let it sit for while.
-
#8 GJT – the page I found on google suggests 1/4 tsp baking soda per pound of ground beef, so the strange flavor may just be the result of too much baking soda…
-
I flatten the meat out and sprinkl it around, so I don’t have to work the meat too much.
-
Pea soup for in Glorious Copperfield this am; 58 degrees when I left the house and it was 63 when I got to the office. Fog is now lifting and it should be a beautiful day.
Bidet kept top secret/SCIF files, which he purloined while VP, in an unsecured location.
The Crack Hunter Biden laptop full of crimes has been in FBI possession for at least 3 years and no charges, indictments, nothing but crickets.
Hitlery and her unsecured server. Benghazi. Billions unaccounted for while she was SoS.
Eric Fartswell and his fling fling with Fang Fang – no penalty whatsoever.
This is damning evidence of criminality of the players above AND the complicity of the FBI and DOJ in covering up these crimes. The FBI and DOJ are hopelessly corrupted and need to be shut down, the top 5 layers need to all be thoroughly investigated by neutral third parties, including forensic accountants, and most, if not all imprisoned for lengthy terms, forfeiture of any and all pensions, and barred from ever serving in a public capacity again.
-
Eric Fartswell
BAWHAHAHA! I’m stealing that one. 😀
FWIW: My #2 mentioned Biden and the documents with a link before it evaporated into thin air. -
Shannon & GJT – thanx for the reminder. I don’t cook ground beef very often, and had totally forgotten the article that Shannon shared with Squawk some time back – making a note to try this the next time I make some “HB Helper” type dish… literally – post-it note on the box LOL
-
It cooked up really neat, browned really well and stuck together making a nice texture, but it did have a little white foaming action going on when cooking, almost like I poured peroxide in it lol.
-
I’m listening to Chris Salcedo via Rumble this morning, and right now he’s interviewing a guy about the border.
He just made a point about the physical damage to the border. I’ve seen pics for years about what has happened to the ecology on the border. The mountains of trash – backpacks, water bottles, etc. – that the illegals just drop so they can be ready to run is humongous. They also destroy natural watershed points like gullies, etc. When you run thousands of feet (many of them clad in pieces of carpet, which also get left behind), changes the natural water courses of the area.
This happens on private land, too, where ranchers have their cattle field butchered ‘n stuff.
Where are the tree huggers?

CLASSIFIED SQUID ☙ Tuesday, January 10, 2023 ☙ C&C NEWS
Good morning, C&C, it’s Tuesday! Your roundup today includes: lots more info about that CTV reporter who had what looked like an on-air stroke this weekend; more info on Thailand’s Princess Bajrakitiyabha; The new Republican Congress starts fulfilling campaign promises; democrats’ double-standard machine shifts into high gear as Joe Biden found keeping classified documents in unclassified places; and covid experts roll out a terrifying new variant name. You’ll never want to go back in the ocean.
I saw the classified papers headline on Bongino Report yesterday, but didn’t go read the article. My thoughts immediately went to the double standard journalism we have now.
As per yesterday’s concerning video of a Canadian journalist who appeared to be about to have a SADS event on camera, Canadian TV reports FOR HER that she’s doing well and this has nothing to do with the jab or the WLR. (She has been jabbed x 3.) Then CTV shut down all of her media accounts and prevented comments on its own social media.
Because she’s doing so well.
Prayers for her recovery.
-
And some good news: Republicans actually start out with something they campaigned on:
The new Republican Congress has started fulfilling campaign promises. Late yesterday they voted to de-fund the 80,000 new IRS agents that Biden ordered as part of his plan to “combat inflation.”
And more good news:
Also, Representative Mike Rogers, who recently lunged at Representative Matt Gaetz during the votes for Speaker, has announced he will step down from the House Steering Committee.
-
Now, for Childers’ take on the documents brouhaha:
Apparently, Joe Biden was storing some classified documents at a commercial office building in Washington, D.C. , where six years ago he’d leased an office for his money-laundering outfit, I mean his “think tank,” the Penn-Biden Center for Diplomacy & Global Engagement:
/snip
Before the midterm elections, CBS News reporters got an anonymous tip about the documents, disclosing that sensitive classified documents including nuclear secrets were laying around in Biden’s old office, which was “secured” by a single lock on the office’s front door.
So of course, CBS told the DOJ and kept quiet.
Emphasis is mine. Remember when Trump was accused of having nuclear documents just laying around on the floor? Of course that was debunked in media not acting as an arm of the demoncrat party.
Showing uncharacteristic sensitivity, grandmotherly Attorney General Merrick Garland waited until now, safely AFTER the midterm elections, to acknowledge the story and assign the case to a US Attorney … but in Chicago, of course. You gotta love that city.
CNN said the unsecurely-stored classified materials include top-secret files designated “sensitive compartmented information,” or SCIF, meaning the super-highly sensitive classified information originally came from U.S. intelligence sources. The New York Post reported that the Penn-Biden Center’s DC office, where the classified documents were “stored,” was paid for by donations from China…

From OTL over yonder:
Spindletop oilfield discovered
January 10th, 1901On this day in 1901, the Spindletop oilfield was discovered on a salt dome south of Beaumont, marking the birth of the modern petroleum industry. Pattillo Higgins, the “prophet of Spindletop,” and others had tried for years to find oil on Spindletop Hill, but with no success. In 1899, however, Higgins hooked up with Anthony F. Lucas. Despite negative reports from contemporary geologists, Lucas remained convinced that oil was in the salt domes of the Gulf Coast. On January 10 mud began bubbling from a well that Lucas had spudded in the previous October. The startled roughnecks fled as six tons of four-inch drilling pipe came shooting up out of the ground. After several minutes of quiet, mud, then gas, then oil spurted out. The Lucas geyser, found at a depth of 1,139 feet, blew a stream of oil over 100 feet high until it was capped nine days later.
-
A later update yesterday said that, very publicly, Mike Rogers apologized to Gaetz and Gaetz forgave him, and Rogers will continue to serve on the Committee.
-
Then Childers reports that TPTB, being disappointed by the new jab rates, has decided that the variant name XBB.1.5 just isn’t scary enough for the sheeple.
Wait for it…………..wait for it…………….waaaaaiiiiiitttttt:
Then over the last few days, corporate media has been valiantly efforting a salty new movement to brand the next variant with a more memorable name than a bunch of capital letters and numbers. Unfortunately, they may have overshot the mark — just a smidge — when they hysterically labeled it, “the Kraken.” I am not making that up.
/snip
(The “real” Kraken is also fictional. So. Just saying.)
On the other hand, variant XBB.1.5, a/k/a “the Kraken,” is a tiny microscopic virus that causes a mild cold in some people…. Well, except for triple-boosted people, who are at highest risk of hospitalization, and are being advised by experts to take MORE of the magic jab juice. You see, the trillions of tiny spikes filling your veins are like little-bitty harpoons to attack the microscopic kraken virus.
/snip – and cutting out some really well done sarcasm
Well, as Childers points out, the original Kraken concept was also fake. Maybe there is some comparison to be found.
-
Shannon – that’s good to hear. Maybe Rogers learned a lesson in adulting.
-
I also heard from Salcedo that Diamond of Diamond and Silk passed away yesterday. I have no details.
-
Kinda like primary season around here.
I usually end up walking away in anger for a month and then come slinking back in.
It’s looking like the 2024 primary will be no different. Probably the worst ever.
-
Dang, I missed the floor fight! Glad everyone kissed and made up.
-
Maybe the Speaker standoff will be a reset on how the 2024 primaries will go.

Biden Caught Hiding Classified Documents For Years From Obama Administration.
So I guess it stands to reason that the FBI is going to raid Biden’s Beach House and maybe even the White House? Send in 20 armed Thugs to find all the documents? …… Naw, he’s one of the protected class, nothing to see here move along. ~SPITS~ ~SPITS~ Again.

#27 GJT: If the GOPeeeee thinks they can ram through more deep state stooges in the primaries then they aren’t thinking at all. We need to be vigilant at weeding these backstabbing sob’s out of the party.

I am in the chair at the ENT waiting on what I hope will be the final sinus (sc)raping. He just shot a bunch of deadening gel all up in there and said there was just a little that needed attention. Hopefully this will be relatively uneventful.

Blog monkey getting cranky in his old age. No expectorating!

I had to turn off the game last night. Just couldn’t take that kind of carnage.

Maybe the Speaker standoff will be a reset on how the 2024 primaries will go.
Fear not, Mitt Romney’s niece, Ronna McDaniel, Chairman of the Republican National Committee, is on the job.

Bones –
They have made contact. A little early for him to start looking but they will discuss so your son can get learn the process and know what he will need to get his financials in order.
Homes are not going the first couple days anymore but things are getting active and going first couple weeks.

My “Part Time” Alabama Granddaughter this morning.
Actually she is the daughter of my Grandnephew, you do the math it’s too confusing for me. 😉
-
#37 SuperDave – maybe blog monkey saw our discussion of spectacles yesterday, and wants (or needs) some for himself… Maybe he thought your “P” was an “H”…. LOLOLOL
-
Oh and Squawk, thanks, you’re a gentleman and a scholar.
-
Actually she is the daughter of my Grandnephew, you do the math it’s too confusing for me.
Being Alabama and all, doesn’t that mean she’s also your grandmother? And maybe aunt? And maybe sister?

The Blog Monkey ordered all the spittoons in the joint be removed and sent to a toxic waste dump.

A Fox reporter, Anders Hagstrom, writes an incomplete collection of historical anecdotes recalling fights among Congressmen and Senators.
One of the first widely recorded incidents came in 1798 between Roger Griswold and Matthew Lyon, a pair of lawmakers from Connecticut and Vermont, respectively. Griswold called Lyon a “scoundrel” during a disagreement, considered an aggressive curse at the time. Lyon responded by spitting in Griswold’s face, and the two then went at it until their colleagues separated them.
The pair weren’t done, however, as Griswold again attacked Lyon a few weeks later, this time using a cane. Lyons defended himself using a pair of fire tongs, according to the Congressional Record.
There are other accounts almost always involving South Carolina members, obviously a bunch of violent SOBs.
However, Hagstrom left out one of the most famous incidents in the District of Columbia.
Let’s turn back the clock to April 13, 1832. That evening, Congressman William Stanbery left his abode at Mrs. Queen’s boarding house and went out for a walk along Pennsylvania Avenue. As he was crossing the street, he encountered Sam Houston — a former Congressman from Tennessee — and two members of the U.S. Senate who were on their way to the theater.
The chance meeting between colleagues was hardly serendipity.
A harsh critic of President Jackson, Stanbery had recently lambasted the administration’s Indian policy on the House floor and suggested that Houston had worked with government agents in defrauding Cherokee Indians while he was the Governor of Tennessee. Houston had not taken kindly to the accusations. He had demanded an apology and made overtures about a duel, both of which Stanbery ignored.
But, it was hard for the Ohioan to ignore Houston as they stood face-to-face on the street… especially when the swinging started.
Still steaming from the Indian policy speech a few days before, Houston purportedly yelled, “Damned rascal!” and began beating the much-smaller Stanbery with his wooden cane. In defense, Stanbery pulled a gun from his pocket. However, the weapon misfired and only served to further enrage Houston and incite more blows with the cane. When the bludgeoning finally ended, Houston continued to the theater and Stanbery staggered back to his room at Mrs. Queen’s.
and then,
The incident sent shock waves through the city and up Capitol Hill. Congress ordered that Houston be arrested and tried. Despite the best efforts of his lawyer, Francis Scott Key (yes, THAT Francis Scott Key), Houston was found guilty of Contempt of Congress. Still, the incident proved to be mostly a win for the former Tennessean. Because of his political connections, he was reprimanded but not censured. In other words, he got off easy.

I do not control what is or is not allowed by Akismet. Heck El Gordo’s comments have been flagged a couple times and I have yet to figure what the problem is, was, could have been with his comments. I think in your case it was the words combined with the spacing structure.

There was/were duals on the streets with politicians weren’t there?
#39 Shannon – that is right down spooky.
We just finished watching a Dateline show involving a man killing his wife. Turns out your Fitbit will tattle on you. Prosecutors used the wife’s Fitbit history to track her movements to prove the husband’s accounts and timelines were a lie.
Use your Fitbit cautiously, he is not your friend!

I was reading a story on FB about a fight in the pits of a car racing event, in the comments there were multiple responses “hidden”, all saying in one form or another to “kick his azz.” Lol

Also in my Kubota tractor FB group, if you say back hoe vs backhoe, it will get removed. Heh.

Duel not dual.
Yes, in Texpat’s link @ 11:28 there are accounts of four duels on the streets. 😀

Mark Cuban says he doesn’t need his billions: I’d ‘for sure’ be just as happy with 1% of my net worth
One percent would be about 46M so I guess so. But, he can relate to the people on the street don’t cha know.
-
#39 – Shannon, I agree wholeheartedly with GJT – that is REALLY downright spooky, I can’t think of a more fitting term… not that anything “they” do surprises me much, these days
-
I’m listening to the news, a report about hospitals on the border getting number crunched from all the free health care they have to give to illegals.
Cuban can send his excess wealth there.
-
Good day, everyone. I’ve been feeding 20-y.o. Millie for over 2 hours, and she’s finally slowing down. Some mornings, she has an enormous appetite.
-
I was like that when I was pregnant. But I don’t that’s Millie’s problem.
-
Warming up nicely out here. Still too early to do any spring planting though. My bluebonnet plants (all volunteers, nothing planted) seem to be popping up all around. I’d like to turn over my flower bed again, but there are just too many bluebonnets in there thriving and I don’t want to mess them up. Seems like they blooms pop out from the frozen, icy tundra in the spring time when they get enough moisture. We’re back to burn bans out here, so we need moisture. And the strong winds are returning as well. More later.

The Stacey Abrams campaign reported more than $1.4 million in debts Monday, after a blockbuster 2022 election that saw the operation raise more than $113 million.
and yet,
Be smart: AL Media was the campaign operation’s highest-paid vendor, receiving nearly $54 million to produce ads and purchase extensive TV and radio airtime.
Stacey Abrams owns AL Media lock, stock and barrel. Their commissions were $8,100,000 plus any extra fees for ad production costs.
Running for political on the big stage these days is nothing but a giant grift. How many millions out of the 54 landed in Abrams pocket ? One helluva a lot, I think.
People were asking why whackjob John Bolton is going to run for president in 2024. He gets to raise a few million, tons of free publicity ratcheting up his name recognition, adds “former presidential candidate” to resume and can pay himself a lucrative salary from campaign funds while running. He has no illusions about winning because this is a huge PR campaign to get more cable TV and radio gigs as well as book deals.
Bernie Sanders’ campaigns have run all of their print, internet, TV and radio ads through a little company solely owned by his wife operated out of a house they own in Virginia. I think she netted close to $900,000 on his last primary campaign alone.
If you wonder why incumbent politicos with no chance of losing an election run a ton of ads during their campaigns, now you know why. When your daughter or brother-in-law owns the ad agency you use they get the 15% cut off the top of all ad expenditures. If a candidate spends $80 million in a senatorial race, the ad agency keeps $12 million in commissions. That is a lot of dough to spread around.

The assault on my sinuses is finished, but once again, my nose thinks my mustache is on fire and by golly it is going to get put out. The numbing gel is wearing off and I am not comfortable. As soon as I finish my current task I m going home.
-
Ouch
-
$54 – I had that same issue except in a different location and my urologist cleaned it all out with a similar procedure. No fun when the numbing agent wears off. But it was a relief to get to use the bathroom again.

I had completely forgotten that Robert Duvall played Major Frank Burns in the original M*A*S*H movie.
One of the best pranks was when a microphone secreted inside Major Margaret O’Hoolihan’s tent, broadcast the two of them in flagrante delicto across the entire camp.
”Oh, Frank! Yes, Frank! Kiss my hot lips!!”
And the rest is history.

I looked up from my downstairs desk to see that “Earl” (lizard) has invaded my home, and is on the window.
I’m not up to chasing him down and just assumed that either Hubby or starvation would have to catch up to him. Then I saw him go after a fly that had also wandered in.
I guess it’s going to be Hubby, at least in the short run.
-
That reminds me – NASA Sis told me that after she’d purchased her home, she kept hearing noises in her ceiling and walls.
Turned out the previous family were Buddhist, and instead of killing vermin themselves, they moved in a variety of reptiles to take care of the problem.
Yeah, took a while to remove all of those critters.

Here is the New York Post account of Carlos Correa’s crusade to negotiate with every team in the MLB.
Star shortstop Carlos Correa’s long-running free agency drama finally appears to be coming to an end on Tuesday as he agreed to a six-year, $200 million deal that could be worth $270M with the Minnesota Twins.
Three weeks after he’d agreed to a $315 million, 12-year deal with the Mets and a month after the $350 million, 13-year deal with the Giants, Correa agreed to a deal to go back to where he started this exciting winter journey. Sources say the major part of the physical is complete, so there shouldn’t be any issues, as there were with Correa’s first two deals.

Gas stove update.
Richard Trumka Jr. told Bloomberg that the appliances are a “hidden hazard” in a story published Monday.
“Any option is on the table. Products that can’t be made safe can be banned,” he told the news outlet.
Trumka — the son of late AFL-CIO president Richard Trumka — later clarified that any new regulation would only pertain to new appliances after he was called out on Twitter by Rep. Gary Palmer (R-Ala.).
“Over 40 million American households use gas stoves,” Palmer wrote. “This type of power should never have been given to unelected bureaucrats and it is time for it to end.”

Jan. 5 (UPI) — An Alberta man fled up a tree when he encountered an aggressive moose in his neighborhood and captured video of the animal charging back and forth below.
David Meredith said he was walking in his Anders on the Lake neighborhood in Red Deer when he noticed a moose nearby.
“He ended up doing a bluff charge,” Meredith told CTV News. “So I took that opportunity to scream like a little girl and run up that tree.”
We’re embarrassed for this guy. We know our Red Deer resident Texanadian would have wrassled this Bullwinkle to the ground like a champion rodeo bulldogger.

There seems to be discussion and interest in the hero who recovered the stolen customer money and property at the Tacoria a couple of days ago. Police promised no charges, they only want to talk to him. He has come forward, and now the DA is saying the case will go before the Grand Jury. Well, we all know that the Grand Jury will do whatever the DA recommends, so that’s just another smoke screen. He will most likely be indicted and they will brow beat him, bleed him dry with attorney fees, and then decide to drop the case, but not before they have squeezed the life blood out of him. That’s how it works these days.

Party City has 826 stores across America and Bed, Bath & Beyond has 953 locations. They are both filing for bankruptcy in the next days or weeks.
We are talking about an enormous amount of impending vacant commercial real estate. The ripple effects are going to be big and painful.

Would the baking soda thing work on ground chicken and pork as well?
-
63 WB
I haven’t seen it suggested for anything other than when browning ground beef.
It has something to do with changing the ph of beef, allowing it to brown and not break down completely and lose all of its moisture – which can turn it into flavorless, grey, dry, pebbles.
-

Did you see the truck the guy drives? The dude has no blood left to bleed dry lol. I get your point though and agree, hope he gets a decent pro bono attorney and a fair jury.
-
WB, the baking soda thing is incredible. The ground beef that I cooked was from the same pack we got from Costco that we divided up, I don’t remember if it’s 80/20 or what it is but I know it puts a bunch of moisture out. Using the baking soda I did not even have to drain it. I can’t wait to do chili with it to get that texture.
-
Maybe Ted Nugent would hire an attorney for the taqueria shooter.
-
Isn’t time for raids on Mike Pence, too??
-
When I “googled” the baking soda thing it said to add about 1/4 tsp per pound – mix it in and let it rest for 15 minutes before cooking it…I patted my hamburger into the skillet – sprinkled on the 1/4 tsp of baking soda, mixed it in, and patted it back into the skillet and it is resting now. (It will ultimately get mixed into a pot of Spanish rice but we’ll see how it looks beforehand LOL)

Well, I got a bit of exercise before the Sun winked out on me. I confess I piddled around all day — I mean when I was vertical — and didn’t get a move on till almost 6 pm. I raked part of the driveway and bagged up some of the dead vegetation that came down with the last good rain. If I wait until CoH pickup day, I’m lucky if I manage to get the house trash in the bin and rolled out to the curb.

Good Evening Hamsters,

I must report that the baking soda in ground beef yielded plump, moist, browned little clumps of meat, instead of it crumbling to tiny little grinds. I’d say this is something I will remember to do because it performed as advertised, AND didn’t change the flavor at all – using just 1/4 tsp of baking soda in 1 lb of ground beef patted out into the skillet, sprinkling to on, mixing it in, patting it back down and letting it rest for 15 minutes before cooking it.
-
I actually did a few hours of billable work today. It was good to exercise the brain. I’m extremely grateful I can bill part time to this project.

I had to stop my “nibbling” of food. It caused severe gastrointestinal distress. I’ll try again starting Friday. It’s frustrating that such teeny tiny portions caused such pain and discomfort.
-
Wow. Sounds like a long road. Incredible you’re working I can believe that.
-
Working a few hour gives me something productive to do. These last 10 months have been difficult as I’m the type of person that is always doing something. There are times when the stars align and my pain/discomfort is minimal and I’m very lucid and I’m just bored out of my mind.
I’d love to tackle a few honeydos, clean the garage, prune some bushes, etc.

I’ve been down with injuries and back episodes, but never anything like 10 months. I sympathize with your frustration though. Get well. Soon.

Wife is breathlessly watching the globe awards to see how the movie Elvis does. Austin Butler who played Elvis won best actor. She went crazy. I think there are other categories the movie is nominated for.
I can’t stand watching, it’s mostly all about LBGT____ freaks. Oh, and PoC.
-
Texmo, I don’t know if your church has this, but in the Catholic faith we have the opportunity to offer our sufferings to Jesus, to combine with his sacrifice, for the redemption of sin and the conversion of souls.
I had some internet connections that reminded me of that in the first few weeks after my surgery. I had beaten them to it.
Small as my pain is in comparison, I hope that offering it up did some good somewhere in the cosmos.
Man, think of all the souls you could save! 😉

Getting late out here, so I’ll be turning in here soon. Been trying to wear my glasses today and still trying to adapt to the bifocals. I may go ahead and get another pair of progressive lenses here soon. My computer screen seems to fall somewhere in between what I need for the distance viewing and the up close viewing. We’ll see how that goes. I might make another trip to Brownwood tomorrow and check it out. Meanwhile you all have a good night.
TexMo, I’m glad that you are able to do a little work. I always have difficulty concentrating like I need to when I’m dealing with pain. Keep on chugging right along and making progress.
Nite nite.

Good Night Hamsters. Lovely moon tonight as it has been for the past few nights; it is just past full now but gorgeous still. Seeing the moon in a beautiful night sky is pleasant just before bedtime.
