Morning gang. I’m up early for some reason this morning. It’s a cool 28 degrees this morning but scheduled to warm up nicely with more bright sun headed our way. Might get some moisture next week, but they always say that – rain next week. Sort of like the sign in the bar that always says “Free Beer Tomorrow.” I heard somewhere that it’s Friday again already, but they all look about the same when you are retired. Hope you all have a nice day, and I’ll report back later with any relevant current developments.

Mornin’ El Gordo, Gang
Another brisk morning here 31 degrees but it’ll get to the mid 60’s later. Hey it’s Friday almost time to kick start the weekend. But I think the coffee is ready so I’ll get right on that.

Dang! I missed Audrey earlier. The picture took so long to load that I came and went before it showed up. And yes wagonburner it has been too long. 😉

The “Power Mower of the Future”
It was demonstrated on Oct. 14, 1957. The lawnmower has a 5-foot-diameter plastic sphere in which the rider sits on an air-foam-cushioned seat. It has its own electric generating system for operating running lights, a radio telephone, air-conditioning, and even a cooling system to provide a chilled drink on a hot day. 😀

Blessedly (since I believed the weather prognosticators and did NOT bring the plants in) it’s 33 here in the woods… and it’s FRIDAY – g’mornin’ gang

When we got out fancy wide deck, zero turn mower, Hubby never let me on it. It was too fun to drive.

Egad, it is 34 F here this morning. How the heck am I warmer than Texas?
-
My wife says you can get a zero turn or keep the tractor, not both. Zero turn would be more useful around here but it don’t haul dirt, so.

BTW y’all need to look out, wife just completed a four day real estate class and she’s pumped! Like a bull in the chute I tell ya.

RE: Yesterday’s Childers’ report on the Pfizer exec caught by Project Veritas, who said that Pfizer was looking at forcing mutations of the WLR virus so Pfizer could continue to “cash cow” the vaccine thing:
Childers was very cautious about the exec (can’t remember his name right now, it’ll prolly pop up in the C&C today, but I haven’t gotten to today’s column yet). Childers warned it might be journalistic honey trap and the guy might be a phony. If so, PV could be sued for defamation or some such, or at least have their journalistic bona fides questioned.
Let’s just call the Pfizer guy “D,” as in “Disgusting”. Just for future reference, he is a gay black man, because (1) his skin tone puts him into the first category, and (2) he said some time in the confrontation that he was “on a date” with the undercover PV guy.
Tucker had video of PV confronting D at some kind of restaurant, looked like a fast food place. D not only became alarmed, he became confrontational, angry, defensive, and finally assaulted the PV crew. He grabbed James O’Keefe’s tablet and tried to destroy it. D actually called the cops and claimed he “felt unsafe because there too many white people in the room with him”. (If that’s not a liberal caught in a corner, I don’t know what is.) I’m surprised he didn’t say all the straight people were frightening him, too.
So, unless the guy is just a really good actor, it looks like what he said on tape is probably true. And, as Tucker pointed out, there were ZERO seconds on the MSM to covering this bombshell story.

Back from TOK, but it’s still cold outside. So I’ll wait inside until it warms up a bit more. I’ve got a couple of chores to take care of before the day’s end.

“Just last week, I got knocked off my motorcycle,” he told the newspaper. “So I’ve got a broken collarbone. I’ve got two broken ribs. I’ve got two cracked kneecaps.”
But he stressed that he was okay after the crash.
“But I’m OK!” Leno said. “I’m OK, I’m working. I’m working this weekend.”
Leno said he was working on one of his vintage vehicles, a 1940 Indian motorcycle, and had taken it on a test drive. While riding, he noticed the smell of gas leaking from the bike, and turned down a side street to investigate it.
“So I turned down a side street and cut through a parking lot, and unbeknownst to me, some guy had a wire strung across the parking lot but with no flag hanging from it,” Leno told the Review-Journal by phone. “So, you know, I didn’t see it until it was too late. It just clothesline me and, boom, knocked me off the bike.”

I actually got up when my alarm went off this morning. That hasn’t happened in many moons. And I’ve already eaten half of my breakfast. Of course, the cats get fed before I do.

I got my Catholic podcast and rosary time in, and now I can peruse the C&C for today:
HYSTERIA ☙ Friday, January 27, 2023 ☙ C&C NEWS
Good morning, C&C, it’s Friday! Today’s roundup includes: a Project Veritas Multiplier; another Project Veritas video lands featuring Pfizer’s Jordan Walker; a mini-roundup from the FDA Vaccine Committee meeting; CDC resurrects the stroke signal; JB Pritzger criticizes DeSantis over woke textbook selections; and DeSantis seeks to make child rape a death penalty crime.
His multiplier is for Project Veritas today, in recognition of their work exposing the corruption surrounding Pfizer. If you decide to participate, end your donation in a “2” so they’ll know to credit C&C for the donation. Here’s the link, should you feel so inclined: https://www.projectveritas.com/donate/
Now, on to the news:
Childers refers to the video I linked to above, where Mr. Walker went bat guano crazy when confronted with his statements. So, Childers is inclined now to believe that the video and its focus is legit. It looks like Pfizer really is thinking about trying to spread disease to make money off of treatments for the diseases it plans to create.
Childers makes these observations:
Not to mention, the entire time, Walker acted like a lampoon of gay stereotypes. He was over-the-top, SUPER gay. It takes effort to act that gay. He seemed like a character who just walked off the set of La Cage aux Folles. I only mention this because I suspect Walker owes his entire career to his “intersectional” skin color plus his sexual preferences, which he probably feels like he must make painfully obvious in order to help preserve his entitlement to his multi-layered victim status.
In other words, he doesn’t want there to be any mistake that he’s black AND gay.
It was an appalling display. Remember, Walker is an EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR, two levels down from the president of the largest pharma company in the world, Albert Bourla. Walker probably makes over a million dollars a year.
Yet he acts like a spoiled three-year-old.
I agree with everything. Watch the video and tell me Childers is wrong. Compared to the expose video, the gayness went off the charts on today’s video.
When you feel threatened, call on the race and sexual diversity card to protect yourself.
I love it where he starts his defense with “I’m LITERALLY a LIAR!”
More discussion, then the deafening media silence discussion:
Unsurprisingly, corporate media was silent as the tomb about the encounter:
/snip
As you can see above, yesterday Florida Senator Marco Rubio sent a letter to Albert Bourla seeking answers to the questions raised by Wednesday’s video. At least someone is taking it seriously.
I mentioned above that Tucker Carlson covered the video and the Pfizer accusations. But crickets everywhere else. At least Rubio is making an effort…
-
More C&C on the PV videos:
These videos are powerful but they won’t convict anyone. … they don’t ‘prove’ Pfizer did anything wrong. Walker used enough weasel words to protect himself. For example, he didn’t say they WERE directing evolution, not exactly, he said they were ‘discussing’ doing that. It’s not illegal to discuss something.
Still, the videos are huge. Even if they don’t lead to arrests and convictions, they expose Pfizer…
To me, the most significant import of the video is that it exposes the quality and character of the people managing Pfizer….
And through these videos, Pfizer is exposing Fauci and the DOD. They started it; they came up with the clever disguise of tinkering with viruses “in order to be prepared for future strains.” …
Pfizer is just using Fauci’s logic to justify adding functions to deadly diseases by “directing” their evolution. They just want to be prepared.
It’s all been a back-alley shell game, right from the start, and the Project Veritas videos tear the mask right off the whole odious enterprise. …
Then Childers has this chilling question:
Unless they manage to bury this somehow, these videos will wake people up to the real problem: what happens when the technology reaches the point where anyone can build a “directed evolution” lab for a few hundred grand.
Any one of the many terrorist organizations or totalitarian governments has the resources to “direct” evolution of a bioweapon.
This is why I pray my rosary every day, read my Bible, attend mass, go to confession…living in a state of grace is the best defense I have in this day and age.

Now, on to the jab itself:
The FDA held its joint VRBPAC Vaccine Committee meeting yesterday. They voted to drop the original strain shots completely, and to move forward with the “bivalent booster” for now.
/snip – much discussion here
Some of the Committee members had interesting comments during the meeting. At one point, Dr. Cody Meissner said that asymptomatic covid infections are “desirable, because it will stimulate both cellular and humoral immunity; it will act like its own boost.”
So now, overcoming the virus naturally is a good thing. /spits
In one surprising admission, Dr. Jerry Weir allowed we have no idea how the covid vaccines are affecting T-Cell memory: “I don’t even think we know whether the T-Cell response is a CD4 T-cell response, a CD8 response…I’m just saying there’s a lot that’s unknown.”
/snip
This is remarkable news. This admission of our lack of knowledge about the T-Cell response to the jabs — not even knowing WHICH T-Cells might be responding — means we really have no idea at all HOW the vaccines work.
IF they work, that is.
In other words, “We have no earthly idea how or how well these “vaccines” work.” But jab on, and make it legally and socially mandated! /more spit

Looks like they are gearing up for play day in Memphis.

Oh, and the CDC is correcting itself on the jab/stroke connection. /eye roll
Like from day one this was an issue?
https://rumble.com/v27bmpc-nicole-gs-presentation-to-the-fdas-vrbpac-expert-committee.html
And then there’s more DeSantis awesomeness:
Fox ran an encouraging story yesterday headlined, “DeSantis Proposes Making Child Rapists Eligible for Execution, Allowing Death Penalty Without Unanimous Jury.”
I don’t know what the end legislation will look like, but anyone who rapes a child deserves extreme punishment. Hopefully, they will change and repent before it’s too late, because every soul deserves a chance, but to injure a child in this way is evil, evil, evil.
Yesterday, Governor DeSantis announced some proposed changes to Florida’s criminal code, including making child rapists eligible for the death penalty, reducing the number of jurors needed to approve capital punishment, strengthening bail laws, and increasing criminal penalties for fentanyl aimed at kids (like putting it in candy), among others.

Memphis:
I heard about that on the radio yesterday. The cop is already going through the system, right? So why the riots?

Yesterday, I was reading about this ridiculous Biden nominee to the new 2025 Dietary Guidelines Advisory Committee to come up with a new useless food pyramid for teachers and doctors to hang on their walls.
Joining the Committee is Dr. Fatima Cody Stanford, an obesity medicine physician at Mass General Health in Boston, whose appearance three weeks ago on CBS’s “60 Minutes” drew considerable backlash after she said obesity is “a brain disease.”
“It’s a brain disease,” she told host Lesley Stahl. “And the brain tells us how much to eat and how much to store.”
She said that, when it comes to willpower, “we should throw that out the window.”
The COVID-19 pandemic, she asserted, created a new, higher “set point” for Americans.
“When you have a chronic stressor and you get to a certain weight and maintain that weight for, let’s say, at least three to six months, then you recalibrate that set point to a different set point.”
Every medical story out of Massachusetts lately seems to be a horror story. Where do people like this woman get credentialed – in a Walmart ?
If obesity is a “brain disease” – whatever the hell that is – and racist, why weren’t black Americans always fat for all time ? Because they were not and they got fat along with everyone else in America. The streets of this nation are full of empirical evidence.
So I went looking for photos of crowds of black people in the past and what do you know ? They didn’t used to be fat either and neither did most white people.

Memphis Police Murder Case
If you haven’t read the details you can’t fathom the barbaric brutality of this incident. Five black Memphis police officers swarmed down on this skinny, 29 year old Fed-Ex driver coming from a park after going on a photo shoot of the sunset. He was only two blocks from the home where he lived with his parents.
Tyre Nichols was beaten so badly he died from internal bleeding finally shutting down his kidneys and heart. There are no words for it. I, for one, don’t believe a word these cops have said.

This recounting of a North Korean woman’s odyssey is enough to take your breath away. All other human problems fade away in the face of her life story.
Time wasn’t on Park Seong-il’s side. Weak, malnourished, and recovering from his third heart attack, he had just witnessed his brother die in his arms — and now the famine ravaging Kim Il-Sung’s North Korea seemed set to claim him, too.
His wife, Ro-Eun sook, was being chased by creditors and had disappeared completely while his son was wanted by the military for desertion. If one of them got caught or arrested, then they all would suffer the same fate.
Seong-il begged Jiyhun, his daughter and his full-time caregiver, to escape — even though it meant leaving him behind.
and,
As people died in the street, the military was called in to execute those people caught stealing food. Park, now a teacher, would also find one of her pupils, a 13-year-old boy called Lee Seung-Chul, dead against a wall in the local market. He is “the little barefoot boy who still haunts me to this day,” she writes.
Another victim was Park’s uncle. “If anyone asked, we told them that my uncle died of measles, that he had caught the childhood disease in later life,” writes Park. “One does not die of hunger in a socialist country.”
years later,
A prisoner that couldn’t work was worthless, and Park was thrown out onto the streets to die. Hungry and homeless, she sought refuge at a local orphanage where the boss helped her to recover. “He applied a white powder to my leg every day,” she says. “To this day, I don’t know what the powder was, but it worked nonetheless.”
Her recovery was the boost Park needed to find her son, Chul. With the help of another trafficker, she waded across the Tumen river and through the mountains into China, tracking her son down to her husband’s parents’ home.
Simply incredible.

Horrifying. Anguishing.
An education for the clueless.
I remember seeing some pics that were smuggled out of NK as a photographer was shepherded around by a minder. I don’t know how he managed to get those pictures past the police but what they showed was highly informative. Along with the starvation, etc., I remember one picture that pretty much sums up the whole NK experience:
A student working at a 1970’s type of computer, the monitor blank because there was no power available, yet the student continued to type away for the cameras to make it seem so much better than it was.

I’ve been on the phone for an hour with a customer service troubleshooter for my husband’s bank. I inherited David’s checking account and his IRA several years ago. I gave half the cash in the checking account to our son Jason who lives in Oklahoma and I had planned to pay online my big bills like property tax with my part. But that bank had some unacceptable rules about how big an outgoing payment could be and how often a customer could make online payments. So I went over there and closed that account, moved the remaining cash into my bank.
I want to have the people who manage my IRA and other financial affairs merge David’s IRA in with mine, but haven’t done it yet. So his bank mailed me the 2022 IRA distribution which apparently got lost or shredded in the US mail in December. Now I have to go over in person to get them to invalidate the missing check and hand me a new one. Sometime later on in the Spring I will make my last trip to David’s bank with the paperwork to move his IRA in with mine. My people are going to send me the instructions for how to do that.

Worked on my gardening a little more today. Went to Tractor Supply to get cat food and a lot of their spring garden stuff has already arrived – rose bushes, new seeds, etc. So I spent a little time moseying around. Tractor Supply is not quite as much fun for me as it probably is for SD, but I think I’ve about already got one of everything that Harbor Freight has. Anyway I started 6 tomato seed and 6 squash seed pots in addition to some of my marigold seeds in a couple of pots just to see if anything will germinate out in my little greenhouse. I really thing you are supposed to start that stuff about the middle of February, but I’ll be adding a few more items each week.
-
I bought an itty bitty greenhouse thing from Aldi months ago. I guess I should follow El G’s lead and get it set up. It’s tall enough to stand in, but I don’t think it’s very wide – I guess I’ll find out soon enough.
If I can get Hubby’s and Handyman’s help. I don’t think I’m supposed to be doing that kind of stuff yet. Hopefully, soon.

If Squawk buys one of these new Tesla semi rigs and orders it with a walk-in sleeper, he could let the truck drive itself while he keeps Hambone.net from running off into the ditch. I’m sure this rig will even back itself into the dock so Squawk can call them on his cell, remotely unlock the trailer and have the dock hands off load or load the truck while he reorganizes his cigar collection.
He could even do like Google and mount one of these units on the Tesla tractor to add to his photo collection as he drives around the country.
What a life.

I want to know if this guy gets to vote on the imminent domain “unconstitutional takings” resolution to steal Vince Cantu’s property ?
Earlier that night, Perry had gone through drive-thru at a BBQ restaurant, where a worker claimed he smelled like alcohol and could barely keep his eyes open, according to an affidavit.
The Texas pol didn’t actually place an order and tried to give the manager his wallet and car keys.
“It appears that you might have been driving while intoxicated,” the officer tells Perry in the clip.
“Not me,” Perry responds, before repeatedly denying that he had driven that night.
The officer then asks where he had been that night, to which the councilman laughs and quips, “Had a good time.”
Perry also couldn’t remember his own phone number and didn’t know what time it was, according to the footage.
and it gets better,
The bodycam footage, released by the San Antonio Police Department, shows the responding officer confronting San Antonio City Council Member Clayton Perry who is seen laying on his side in the dark unable to sit up.
“Do you realize your Jeep is still running,” the officer asks, after walking past the vehicle sitting in the driveway with the headlights and break lights still beaming.
“Oh sh–,” Perry responds.
The officer informs Perry that his Jeep was crashed into his own garage and had been involved in a hit and run that night, about two miles from his home.
A confused Perry insists he didn’t remember being involved in a car crash.

I wound up being busy today, or at least busy by my current standards. Did some gardening and then went to the store and got all the fixins for my cabbage soup. Then cut it all up, sauteed, steamed, simmered, and whatever else to get it all done, and dang if it doesn’t taste pretty good. I’ll leave it out here to cool until bedtime and then I’ll put it all away in the frig.
Had a bad wreck outside of Richland Springs this afternoon. Shut down traffic for 4 hours, at least 1 fatality. Trooper said it looked like an airplane crash out there, so must have been a pretty high speed collision. OK, I’ll get back in here before bedtime. More later.

I was feeling so well earlier that I forgot I wasn’t supposed to bend over.

#57, 58
Wow, hadn’t seen that.
Amazes me, that happened on 99 near Cypress Rosehill, getting busier through there but it is still fairly remote. And there is video.
-
Bedtime for me pretty quickly. I’m still thinking that the truck landing was not intentional but may have only been the pilot’s best option at the time as he saw it. The Bonanza is a pretty heavy airplane and sinks relatively fast without power. I made an unintentional power off landing in a field in one once that I was able to fly away from once I changed the fuel selector switch to a tank that had gas in it, but it did spook me. They don’t call them forked tail doctor killers for no reason.
I decided not to watch the cops beat down that poor man in Memphis, but I heard enough of the audio to get the idea. Like most stories, there must be more of a reason to this than we know so far, but short of him being a baby raper or something I don’t know how you could justify that beatdown. Hope you all have a good evening now. Nite nite.
