NEW YORK—In a bold move to protect the lungs of New Yorkers, Mayor Eric Adams has announced a groundbreaking ban on the infamous Canadian wildfire smoke that has been wafting its way into the city. Concerned about the potential health risks posed by the foreign fumes, Mayor Adams is taking decisive action to create a smoke-free environment for all residents.
Addressing the press at City Hall, Mayor Adams declared, “Enough is enough! We cannot let our beloved city be engulfed in smoke from across the border. We have a duty to protect the lungs and air quality of New Yorkers. Starting today, we are banning all Canadian wildfire smoke from entering our city limits!”
The announcement came as a surprise to many, with some questioning the mayor’s authority to control the direction of the wind and the behavior of wildfires in a neighboring country. Nevertheless, Mayor Adams remained resolute in his determination to create a smoke-free oasis within the bustling metropolis.
The ban will be enforced by a crack team of air quality inspectors stationed at various entry points into the city. Equipped with giant fans and oversized fly swatters, these vigilant officers will stand guard, ready to intercept any rogue plumes of Canadian wildfire smoke attempting to infiltrate New York City.
go to heaven a’shouting, love for the Father and the Son

As for the last 18 months, all I can say is,
What A Long Strange Trip It’s Been.
Too many losses.
Certainly, this is the first time I ever heard of sharks in Egypt.
Me too.
I’ve been trying to get back to the coast for at least three years.
Sneaked into Arkansas and quickly returned.
Checked myself for fleas.
All clear. Back in the great state of Texas.
It’s official. I’m jealous of SuperDave. That beach looks delicious.
And then I remember the story that broke a day or so past, of a guy getting eaten by a shark in front of his father, girlfriend, and the whole beach. This was in Egypt, the guy was Russian. There’s gotta be a political motive in there somewhere….
Well PC Beach June 2023 is now history. Wife headed out about 5 PM and I’ll load up and head home in the morning. After we loaded up the Tahoe my wife took a selfie of us by the gate to the beach.
A few days ago we had an article stating that the Canadian Province of Alberta would like to join the US as the 51st state. Socialist Ontario and the other eastern provinces now have little in common with the western provinces that are much more like our mid-west and western states. Maybe we could trade our socialist NE States for… Read more »
It’s a beautiful evening here in Texarkana. We’ve done a little exploring, seeking sustenance for an early lunch. The parts of the city we have seen are really nice. Reminds me of Kansas City….so clean.
Ate Mexican, had the finest Margarita I’ve ever had.
Came back to the Hampton Inn and crashed for 5 hours.
Texpat, hope you recover quickly, and that never happens to you again. How dreadful to be taking medicines that clash and make you feel worse.
Texpat,
I sympathize with you and your upset stomach. Nasty stuff when something assaults the tummy with ice skates: figure skates and hockey skates together.
Sorry to have gone silent mid-word… Our internet went south and just now came back up…
Heads up, guys. Moderators have email from me.
Texpat, sorry to learn of your maladies. Get weller sooner.
Tedtam
Thank you for all the forward posting you did for next week.
Tom Fitton tweeted this: I’ve carefully reviewed the indictment of Trump by his political opponents at the Biden Justice Department. @JudicialWatch has nearly 30 years of experience litigating federal and presidential records issues, including the famous “Clinton sock drawer” case.) The document dishonestly ignores the U.S. Constitution, the Presidential Records Act, legal precedent, and the DOJ’s/Archives’ previous position that WH… Read more »
Oh, Texpat – so sorry! Hope things get better for you. Like yesterday.
Just for the record and without further details, I am on two treatment programs – one involving an injection every two weeks and another every 12 weeks now. It so happened the calendar fell with one injection on Wednesday and the other, stronger one on Thursday. I never should have taken them so close together and should have notified the… Read more »
I’ve tried to explain it, several times. I think he won’t get what “freeze dried” means until he sees it.
Tedtam – tell him it’s simple… super froze then suddenly warmed – the water turns from a solid to a gas thru “sublimation” – I think RoseRed Homestead even has a video explaining it 😉
Bsue – did you see R.A.40’s video on using the system test selections to vacuum seal multiple jars? You can “test” the vacuum system by itself with jars in the chamber. He got a heckuva seal on 9 jars at one time.
#24 – I’ll have to do that, too, when I get a name!
Thanks for the info. I told Hubby I was excited about making cheesecake snack bites. He’s still trying to understand how the whole freeze drying thing works…
#18 Tedtam – I’d thought the same thing… and thought “Nah… I have parchment paper” but Im seriously reconsidering!!!! (Also IF you do sausage – in addition to cleaning the inside of the “barrel” you gotta remember to pour HOT water down thru the drain hole to the hose – into a bucket to toss outside…). Currently, Nat is pre-rolling… Read more »
Economic warnings, 2008 style.
Just a friendly reminder of how smart the Texas Cornhole really is. This morning, I had a very good conversation with Judge Merrick Garland, who President Biden has nominated for Attorney General.” “Judge Garland’s extensive legal experience makes him well-suited to lead the Department of Justice, and I appreciated his commitment to keep politics out of the Justice Department. That… Read more »
Has the Jersey Jelly roll had any trouble locating the donut shops in Jersey and NY with all that smoke up there? now that he’s ‘running’ for pResident he will need to keep up his stamina. vote for the jelly roll in 2024 cuz you don’t want pence the Judas stint and Nikki the bore more rino lore and asa… Read more »
Childers goes on about the Biden illegalities: In a statement following the leak, House Oversight Committee chairman James Comer said it’s not just the Burisma thing, and not just Ukraine, either. Joe shook down other Eastern European countries. Comer said: This is a very serious accusation. This accusation fits a pattern that we uncovered especially in Romania, where then vice-president… Read more »

I was wondering if it’d be worth buying those precut sheets….guess I’ll be doing that.
Tedtam – VERY important information about using the freeze dryer for anything greasy (like our pre-cooked, washed, and frozen breakfast sausages…) Make sure and line your trays with parchment paper (cut to size to line the bottom) AND place another the same size over the meats… Don’t ask me how I learned this lesson – just take my word for… Read more »
I’ve been taking about mine for a few days…
Say, y’all are mentioning trips as though the rest of us know all about ’em… Please assume I have no info on what your trip is all about, and provide at least a clue or two…
Arrived at 10:15. Took a long break in Garrison, or we’d have been here at exactly 10 am.
6 hours total travel time.
Marshall is a nice looking town, where it starts getting hilly.
I’m going with LD and family.

Who is the “we” going to Angelfire? I must have missed something, this doesn’t ring any bells… But hope you enjoy the trip!
We’re going to Angelfire, NM. I’ll meet them in Denton and we’ll drive from there.
Bsue, we were discussing placement this morning over breakfast. The noise was definitely part of that conversation. I copied your info and sent it to Hubby.
Tedtam – when you consider where to locate “anonymous” freeze dryer, remember that it is not as silent as “Fred”… Not loud but definitely NOT silent… When the pump turns on to pull the vacuum, it’s prolly the loudest – and sounds kinda like a little vacuum cleaner… And it needs a lot of ventilation – we have a fan… Read more »
As usual I’m NOT keeping up so Tedtam where ya’ going?
Edited; Texpat didn’t know either. 😀
8 Tedtam
Condo ? Hmmm.
I must have missed where you are going. I thought you were going to Denton.
It feels so weird, not having the constant “bookkeeping warning” in my head. Yeah, I still have stuff to do, but it shouldn’t have that “urgent” feel to it. Hubby said he has a wad of receipts for me to enter. He waits until he has a big bunch of them for me; maybe now I have the time to… Read more »
Shannon is making good time. He’ll be in Texarkana by 10 AM.
Thomas Sowell and Walter Williams.
Some of the smartest men who ever walked the planet.
That trip up through East Texas is not a bad as it used to be.
Tenaha Timpson Bobo and Blair 😀
As usual Thomas Sowell hits the nail on the head.
Failings of Honorable People.
Nacogdoches.
Be safe out there Shannon and watch for the State Troopers. Well it’s Friday and the last full day here at the beach but it has been a great trip. Last night we went over to Pineapple Willy’s and the food was really good as usual. I had the Blackened Mahi Mahi with Mango Pineapple Salsa, corn on the cob,… Read more »
