Weekend – Buy Tyson at Your Own Risk – Open Comments

America’s largest meat producer has announced a new partnership with a World Economic Forum-linked company to open a major insect processing plant in the United States.

Tyson Foods Inc., the largest producer in the U.S. for all kinds of meats, is buying a stake in Netherlands-based insect-protein company Protix BV.

Protix BV describes itself “as leading the world in the technical aspects of insect production.”

The company has also been hailed by the World Economic Forum (WEF) and was awarded with globalist organization’s “Technology Pioneer” award.

Protix CEO Kees Aarts is also listed as a member of the WEF.

The two companies will collaborate to establish a manufacturing facility in the U.S.

The new plant will produce bug-based meal and oil, typically used in fish feed and dog food.

However, Tyson CFO John Tyson said in an interview that “in the long run,” the company will produce products that are “good for people.”

“It’s a multibillion-dollar industry opportunity that has tremendous growth potential, and we see Protix as being a leader there,” Tyson said.

We do hope the young CFO John has managed to get some help and a GPS to  figure out where to rightfully sleep at night.

Tyson Foods chief financial officer John R. Tyson has apologized for his behavior following his arrest over the weekend, saying in a company-wide email that he is “embarrassed” over the incident.

Mr. Tyson, 32, was charged with public intoxication and criminal trespass in the early hours of Sunday morning after Fayetteville, Arkansas, police responded to a burglary call from a “college age” woman who said she had just arrived home to find a man she did not know asleep in her bed, according to the preliminary police report.

Officers said they found Tyson in the bed, and arrested him due to his apparent “level of intoxication” and his “unlawful presence in the house” where the occupants did not know him.

    But plan worked. Yes! The ” living alone in a hotel for however long in some unknown place” made it imperative that you get home ASAP at all costs. I hope that you make it home today and whatever you do take it easy for a bit.

    Thank y’all. Last time I had this was in 2017 or 18 in DC area. I’d gone to some training in Virginia Beach, wife met me there and we planned a trip in DC, this same time of year to go up and see the leaves.

    Yesterday on the local news they were reporting on the Natalee Holloway/van der Sloot story and in the videos they show van der Sloot getting into a Cessna 310D or later (I could tell by the wingtip tanks and tail) and I wondered why there were using a small, twin engine, unpressurized, 6 place airplane with a cruise speed of about 200 MPH. Since I’m naturally curious, I looked it up and found out that back in 2010 the Chilean police flew van der Sloot from Santiago to Peru to turn him over to the authorities in the murder of  21-year-old Stephany Flores. So now I know, that was bothering me. 😉

      —  Chilean police expect to hand murder suspect Joran van der Sloot to Peruvian authorities this afternoon, possibly about noon CDT, at the border of the two countries. Police placed van der Sloot aboard a Cessna 310 in the Chilean capital of Santiago this morning to begin his flight.

    — Van der Sloot today wore the same black-hooded sweat shirt and khaki pants in which he was arrested the day before. Unlike Thursday when he was brought to a Chilean jail with his hands free, van der Sloot was handcuffed when placed aboard a police plane for the trip to the border. The 22-year-old did not speak to or look at reporters who called to him as he was escorted onto the plane.

    Van der Sloot is the prime suspect in Peru in the death of Stephany Flores who was found dead in his Lima hotel room.  She had a broken neck. She was fully clothed, with multiple bruises and scratches on her body, but there were no signs she had been sexually assaulted, the chief of Peru’s criminal police, Gen. Cesar Guardia, told The Associated Press.

    Oh and ain’t the inter-webs neat? Well sometimes.

    Man, getting out of bed is the most dreaded five minutes of my day.  Dang knee.  If this doesn’t get better in a few weeks – since the specialist said it would take “some time” – I’m going to ask for a different evaluation.  This just isn’t right.  The bones are all where they should be, but I’m not so sure about the soft tissue around it.

    The Tucker video is well worth the 14 minutes of your time.  All of this is being resurrected and entered into the court records in Minneapolis since a former assistant DA is suing her boss and dragging out all the lies of the Floyd case.

    Tucker Carlson just challenged one of the left’s most sacred of cows – George Floyd, an ex-con who died with an elephant-dose of fentanyl in his system and a history of health issues, while in custody of Minneapolis police on May 25, 2020.

    and this interview is excellent,

    Carlson interviewed Vince Everett Ellison, author of “Crime Inc.” – who discussed the possibility of orchestrated degradation and victimization within the Black community by political entities, particularly the Democratic party.

    Ellison suggests that the glorification of figures like George Floyd represents an insidious strategy to perpetuate a certain stereotype of blacks who are reliant on the system, thereby solidifying a voting base and maintaining a form of socio-political control.

    Hubby found a truck he wants to buy, from a dealer near St. Louis, MO.  His truck has been giving him fits for years, suddenly dying on him while he’s driving.  He has to keep to the right so he can pull off when it goes into “stupid mode,” as he calls it.  He waits five minutes, and it’ll start up again.  He’s tried everything he can think of, talked to our mechanic, and nothing has worked.  Since he’s learned to do a little more searching on his own, he’s discovered that he’s not the only one suffering with this problem with his model truck.  What’s weird is that the truck worked perfectly for years, and then stupid mode kicked in.

    He’s been trying to figure what to do, and when he found this truck online, we talked it over and I told him to make the decision, since he’s the one living with the problem.  He got the cashier’s check yesterday, and we talked about the logistics of him getting to the dealer and getting the truck back.  He was going to drive stupid truck up there, possibly taking Handyman with him to drive the two vehicles back; or he could drive up, take a look, drive back, and let the shipper move the new truck for him.  Or maybe the shipper could drive the stupid truck back.  We’ll see.   He thought he had found a deal on flying up there, but it turns out it wasn’t as much of a bargain as he thought.

    The relief on his face, though, when we decided to get the new truck – whatever it takes, it’s worth it.

    When he gets the new-ish truck back, he then has to deal with the bed: moving the Tommy lift from stupid to the new one, modifying his tool boxes, etc.

    THE REST OF US ☙ Saturday, October 21, 2023 ☙ C&C NEWS

    Good morning, C&C, and welcome to the Weekend Edition! We’re doing something a little different today, and my hope is that it’s not too repetitive. But there’s also lots of breaking news, too, so your roundup includes: citizen-obtained police documents humiliate corporate media by proving Obama present at tragic paddleboarding accident; sudden death appears in Governor Hochul’s orbit; massive “medical emergencies” roundup for us regular folks this week; a middle east war roundup; and the biggest earthquake news you never heard of.

     

    NEWS:

    Yesterday, in another shameful corporate media humiliation, Judicial Watch announced on its website: New Records Reveal Barack Obama’s Presence at Emergency Scene of Obama Family Chef Drowning.

    Wow.  That HAS been covered up!

    The video was not produced. But Judicial Watch says it will continue seeking to obtain the footage.

    Why did it take so long and so much independent effort to discover that Obama was there? Why didn’t the MEDIA seek these public records? What use is the corporate media these days anyway?

    If this keeps up, people might start to get the idea that the corporate media only exists to provide cover for government actors.

    Gee, ya’ think?

    I’ve often harped on the fact that for every celebrity S&U death, there are many, many more among the “regular folk” that go unreported and unrecognized. Those families suffer no less than the more newsworthy deaths and illnesses. Childers deals with that uncomfortable fact today:

    But for every celebrity/VIP injury, there are hundreds or thousands among us regular folks. Today, I’m showing you what I see when I’m doing my research. This is just a sample. All the following reports are just from October (less than three weeks’ worth), only in the United States, and only those fitting a jab injury profile. I rejected any story including evidence contradicting jab involvement.

    Now just look at twenty day’s worth, in remembrance of the regular folks. I tried my best to categorize them, and included photos where available. You’ll see there’s no way anybody can keep up with all this.

    He then follows with a very long, very sad, list of everyday folks, our neighbors and friends, who died S&U, leaving behind puzzled and saddened family and friends.

    RIP to them all, and comfort to their loved ones.

    Heads should roll.

    Now, on to Israel:

    Yesterday, the Times of Israel hinted at who the “Restrainer” might be who is holding off Israel’s slow-motion ground offensive in Gaza, which has still not started. It’s Hamas. The article was headlined, Senior official: US, European countries pushing Israel to delay Gaza ground offensive

    It’s all about the hostages.

    The hostage strategy seems to be working.  For Hamas, anyway.  They are buying time to shore up their defenses and public opinion.

    …The Russians explained that the U.S. fears being blamed for the Gaza invasion, since everyone thinks the U.S. controls Israel:

    While it publicly expresses full solidarity with Israel, the US has to be careful on the humanitarian front, which is why it has pressed Israel to provide water to southern Gaza and has pushed for some humanitarian supplies to enter Gaza from Egypt. Whether Israel can be dissuaded from launching a ground invasion of Gaza is unclear. If Israel does go ahead, it would appear – rightly or wrongly – that Biden green-lit it. This would create a backlash against the US in the Islamic world. If Israel does not go ahead, it would politically expose the ruling Israeli government to a backlash by far-right elements in the country.

    Hamas released two women – a mother and daughter.  Whether they’d been raped (repeatedly) has not been mentioned, AFAIK.

    Pro-Hamas commenters insisted yesterday that the terrorist group wants to negotiate a return of all civilian hostages, in exchange for a cease-fire agreement that would preclude a ground invasion. It’s a brilliant strategy. Hamas can trickle out a hostage or two every few days with great media fanfare to keep pressure on while Israel’s allies insist that the ground invasion wait, indefinitely, until “all options” for getting the hostages back have been exhausted.

    Israel will be universally condemned for putting the hostages’ lives at risk if it invades before all the hostages have been returned as long as it looks like Hamas is cooperating.

    Hamas may be a brutal, heartless, genocidal killing machine, but they aren’t stupid.

    On the Russian front.  Not Ukraine, though:

    Fox reported that Russian media said yesterday that the Kremlin is “closely monitoring” a high-explosive experiment the U.S. carried out this week at its nuclear test site in Nevada. Russia accused the U.S. of violating a 1996 nuclear test ban treaty, and U.S. officials passive-aggressively responded by saying the test was just of some conventional weapons designed to look like nukes, for “detection” purposes.

    The Thursday test, whatever it was, coincidentally occurred just a few hours after Russia announced its intent to consider withdrawing from the nuclear test ban treaty. Deputy Foreign Minister Sergei Ryabkov said last week that Moscow will continue to respect the ban and will only resume nuclear tests if Washington does so first.

    So, it’s going great.

    Let’s just ratchet the world temperature.  Thanks, Brandon!

     Finally, many Christians are on unusually high alert these days for the fulfillment of Biblical end-times prophecy, since world events appear to be lining up with major Old and New Testament predictions. Like the Israel war, eclipses, pestilences, and increased earthquakes. But Christians may have missed the biggest earthquake news ever — on Mars.

    Mars has never been tectonically active, so the earthquake is quite a conundrum.  They’ve ruled out meteor impacts and any other impact sources.  Heads are being scratched….

    Childers has his usual tongue-in-cheek explanation:

    I don’t know what’s so mysterious about it. It is obviously manmade climate change. The excessive CO2 in the Earth’s atmosphere caused by gas-powered SUVs is so bad it is now tragically destroying, not just the Earth, but the entire Solar System. Who knows how many innocent space bacteria may be dying by the trillions as Mars shakes around? Scientists should talk to Greta Thunberg if they really want to clear up this mystery.

    Or, it might be aliens tunneling through Mars’ dusty crust using advanced boring technologies. I’m okay with either explanation.

    Don’t cancel me, I’m just saying, but after all, newly-rumbling Mars happens to be named after the Roman god of War. It’s probably nothing though.

    When I first came up here to New Jersey, I suffered recurring upper respiratory infections regularly.  Most folks just call them sinus infections.  In Texas, I had sinus headaches, but not infections.  It’s the opposite here although my body seems to have acclimated much better these days.  There is still this common shrub up here called forsythia that blooms early in the spring and covers everything outdoors with yellow talcum-powder like pollen that lays me out every year.  It does not grow or survive in the South.

    When we’re born and raised in a certain area our bodies begin to develop immunities and antibodies to the things we’re exposed to starting at birth.  If you move later in life, as an adult, to a very different region you encounter pollens and dusts your body never faced.  People in this area who came up from the Caribbean islands often really suffer.  But I’ve wondered about the immune systems of military brats who move to radically different places in the world for short periods of time.

    I can’t speak for the names of the  all various flora that set my allergy meter clanging mightily – but I grew up in a part of Texas that some refer to as the “cedar belt”… But NEVER had problems with it, or pretty much any other kinds of allergies.  Spent a couple years in Germany and started having the dreaded trio of tonsillitis, bronchitis and sinus infections before I came back State-side, mid-summer.  That fall I learned the art of the “machine-gun sneeze” to the point that Docs who heard me warned that I needed to get some sort of control over the new-formed allergy before the cedar actually pollenated or I was likely to wind up in the hospital.  Guess as former or reserve military docs it was not a new phenomenon to them.  I have been taking Zyrtec daily for years, because it works, doesn’t make me sleepy, and doesn’t mess with my blood pressure too much.

    THE WEEK IN PICTURES: INSURRECTION MANQUE EDITION

    Did you hear there was an insurrection at the U.S. capitol this week? But like the riots of 2020, it was “mostly peaceful,” and moreover on behalf of an approved cause, so Garland’s Justice Department will say that not charging anyone will not represent unequal justice, because some (leftist) causes are more just than others. Maybe there should be a similar protest about the House not being able to choose a new speaker just to confuse the media and the Justice Department.

    Massive evidence continues to mount the people of Pennsylvania are simply blithering idiots.

    The election corruption is rampant and endemic.  They elected a giant brain-damaged fool as Senator.  The state environmental board just adopted California’s heavy truck standards basically wiping out their trucking industry in one fell stroke of catastrophic stupidity.  The Philadelphia Phillies baseball players look like homeless meth stoners and now they think feral house cats are mountain lions.

    I think the whole state has been poisoned with dope or maybe they all grew up eating lead paint for breakfast.

    Mountain Lion Reported in Penn. Town Turns Out to Be a Large Feral House Cat, Officials Find

    Residents in Lower Macungie, Pennsylvania, are breathing a sigh of relief after reports of a mountain lion roaming the area turned out to be a false alarm.

    On Sunday, state troopers reported that a very large cat had been spotted in some fields behind a residential street, according to a public information release. The neighbor who contacted the police snapped a photo of the animal.

    “Upon further investigation, it was determined that the image captured a large feline, possibly a mountain lion, in the fields behind Hanover Driver,” the release said, noting that the Pennsylvania Game Commission (PGC) was contacted and advised of the situation.

    Most states would cover this up and not admit they were this dumb, but Pennsylvania made a big news story out of it.

    Like I said…the evidence continues to mount.

    The American television reporters in Israel have run out of people to interview about the complex geopolitical war situation in the region.  They have asked old men toothless men in the street, teenagers, cab drivers, children and distraught family members of hostages.  The media seem to be oblivious.

    I’m waiting for John Rogers of Fox News to corner some old Bedouin guy on a camel and ask him what he thinks the IDF plans and timing are for the ground invasion of Gaza.  A Fox News reporter just asked an Israeli commando if he knew Israel was at war with Hezbollah as if this were shocking news, ignoring the fact Israel has been at war with Hezbollah in Lebanon for decades.

    The patience and politeness of the Israelis’ reaction to this has been striking.  I’m not that tolerant.

    A 40 year old synagogue president was found savagely stabbed to death in her home today near downtown Detroit.  She was very active in interfaith dialogue and meetings between Jews and Muslims in the city.

    The president of a Detroit synagogue was found stabbed to death outside her home Saturday morning, police and the synagogue said.

    The Isaac Agree Downtown Synagogue put out a statement later in the afternoon identifying the victim as board president Samantha Woll.

    Detroit police responded to a 911 call of an unresponsive person around 6:30 a.m. and found a body outside a home on Joliet Place. The woman, who was not immediately identified by investigators had suffered multiple stab wounds, police said.

    Good late afternoon Hamsters,

    #29 Shannon,

    It is a great service of love to help folks who need assistance in smaller Texas towns and surrounding areas that otherwise might be overlooked by some of the large charitable organizations closer to the large cities.  Meals on Wheels gives so much more than delivering meals by cheerful volunteers who brighten the lives of the recipients besides bringing dinner.  It brightens the days of those who bring dinner to others in need of that and someone cheerful who listens.

    One of our dearly departed friends who was a coworker with my spouse was very much involved with the Fort Bend Seniors Meals on Wheels program after he retired.  He said that was something truly useful he could do that brightened his days as it brightened the days of those on his delivery list.  The organization covers Fort Bend and Wharton Counties.

    Kroger still had their chicken thighs on sale, so I got three more packs.  They are cooked and I’m waiting for them to cool down before I handle them.  I already got the crock pot going with the chicken bones I already had in the freezer, so I’ll be processing chicken stock over the next day or two, since I’ll be deboning the thighs later tonight.

    There’s a guy named Spencer who has a Youtube channel “SB Mowing”.  I don’t know how I got that into my feed, but there’s something mesmerizing about watching him take chaotic yards and taming them.  He does it for free, just makes his money off of the channel and paid for mowing jobs, I guess.  It’s really sweet when he finds some little old lady who’s just not capable of caring for her yard any more.

    I guess I feel the same way about “Midwest Magic Cleaning” guy, but he’s got a sarcastic wit that also appeals to me.   He’s the autistic guy, who finds cleaning hoarder houses therapeutic: “it scratches my nerd itch”.  He has a real understanding and compassion for hoarders; he understands it’s a medical condition usually brought on by some kind of mental distress.  He doesn’t judge, and he treats the homeowners with a great deal of respect and compassion.  I respect that.

    But watching those guys go into utter madness and tame it into order is quite satisfying.  I guess that’s why those channels do so well.

    This is the next mayor of the soon to be third largest city in America ?  Houston/Harris Co. would then be run by two of the stupidest, most ignorant women to ever enter politics.

    Lee was allegedly berating her staff over a scheduling issue and the fact that the staffer did not know the exact date that she wanted to know.

    The staffer said that he didn’t know the date because another staffer named Jerome had the paper with the date on it.

    “I don’t want you to do a g**d*** thing. I want you to have a f***ing brain,” she allegedly said. “I want you to have read it. I want you to say, ‘Congresswoman, with such and such date.’ That’s what I want. That’s the kind of staff that I want to have. So some stupid other motherf***er did it. And, and I don’t have the information. Nobody sent me the information. I need to, uh, ensure my, um, schedule and, uh, you know, if, if Boo Boo did it, s*** a** did it, f*** face did it. And nobody knows a g**d*** thing in my office. Okay? Nothing. I gave it to you. Your job was to get it on the calendar, imprint it in your brain, or send me the information back saying, ‘Congresswoman, I made sure that the Ovide Duncantell event that you gave me, uh, for a so-and-so date at seven is on the f***ing calendar.’ Not to, oh, Jerome has it.”

    I think that I’m going to have to go back to the knee doc for that cortisone shot.  This is not getting any better; if anything, it’s getting worse.  I really, really, really hate those shots.

    I’m debating going to church this morning.  I have to deliver the 50 baby rosaries – and visit Jesus, of course – but I think I’m putting myself back on the crutches, at least part time.  The doctor told me to burn them, but what he doesn’t know won’t hurt him, but it may help me.

    Asra Q. Nomani is a former reporter for the Wall Street Journal and the author of Woke Army: The Red-Green Alliance That Is Destroying America’s Freedom. She is cofounder of the Muslim Reform Movement and the Pearl Project, which is dedicated to exposing anti-Semitism and remembering the legacy of journalist Daniel Pearl.

    Nomani rejects the reports of the Washington Post, the New York Times and all the other liars in media.  Even Fox News was either too lazy or didn’t care to provide the truth about the “insurrection” on Capitol Hill this past week.  According to the corporate press, the aggressive, nearly violent protest riot in the Cannon Building in DC was several hundred contrarian Jews demanding a cease fire in Gaza.  Hmmm.

    On Wednesday, as militants overseas called for an “unprecedented day of rage,” days into Hamas’ war on Israel, a bespectacled man in a white shirt accosted Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene inside the U.S. Congress, screaming at her: “Let Gaza live! Murderers go home!…End the genocide!”

    however,

    Nobody figured out publicly who the bespectacled man was. But I knew the minute I saw him.

    plus this which went unreported,

    In knowing his identity, you will also know that the protest at the U.S. Capitol was not just led by “Jewish protestors in D.C.,” as the Washington Post reported. It was also led by Herzallah and American Muslims for Palestine, using the Jewish organizations “Jewish Voice for Peace” and “If Not Now” as cover for their agenda against the state of Israel. A staffer with American Muslims for Palestine bragged about the protest on their Facebook page, tagging Herzallah in the video and complaining: “They won’t even let us have our freedom of speech in a public building.” She then filmed herself, joining Herzallah in heckling Greene.

    Men like Herzallah and organizations like American Muslims for Palestine, Students for Justice in Palestine, and others create alliances with far-left groups, such as Black Lives Matter, Antifa, “Jewish Voice for Peace” and “If Not Now” to create their fake “intersectional” movement.

    The very small groups like Jewish Voice for Peace and If Not Now are simply useful idiots for the Muslim/ Marxist campaign to destroy Western civilization.  They serve as the beard* for the violent leftist jihadists assisting the American news media in concocting outlandish narratives.

    I’ve seen this argument before from the baby-killers, and it sickens me: babies are a parasite in the mother’s body.

    Dehumanizing a group or person is how tyrants justify killing those groups.  Think Hitler, Pol Pot, the Chinese revolution, etc.

    Here’s one way to shut down that “babies are parasitic” argument;  https://www.youtube.com/shorts/j8AzsYdxD90

    NASHVILLE, TN — Daily Wire’s upcoming film adaptation of Snow White will reportedly star conservative personality Ben Shapiro as all seven dwarves.

    “With Snow White and the Evil Queen, we wanted to make use of practical effects whenever possible,” said producer Jeremy Boreing. “That means minimal computer effects and Ben Shapiro as every dwarf.”

    “You know, because he’s so short.”

    and,

    The film is set to feature all seven dwarves, albeit names with names that differ from their popular Disney counterparts. Doc, Grumpy, Happy, Sleepy, Bashful, Sneezy, and Dopey will be replaced by Reagan, Washington, Madison, Coolidge, Van Buren, Taft, and Jeremy.

    Shapiro would need Quaaludes to speak for any of the dwarves.  I though *I* was a fast talker, but if talking were the 100 meter dash, Shapiro would beat Usain Bolt every time.

    I really need cook some chili soon.

    I have some ground venison in the freezer that needs to go.

    If I learned anything about chili from Fay, it is that many pots of chili are ruined by too much chili powder.

    She would always start out with less than necessary and sneak up on the perfect amount; checking over several hours and adding as needed.

    Back in my early days, when I was cooking, I enjoyed a really thick chili.

    After I married a chef, I learned to appreciate a slightly thinner consistency.

    I don’t recall Mark posting a chili recipe.  He made plenty of comments about chili, but I don’t know about a recipe.

    I have my own and I should edit my recipe because I’ve made a couple of small changes. I don’t think I have a text copy anymore.  I do it from memory after all these years.  Back in the LST days, Big Jolly posted my chili recipe on his site.  He claimed he had over 2,000 downloads of it after a month or two.

    Great chili tastes even better the next day because everything good in it soaks in overnight and makes it more wonderful.  Perhaps other dishes with sauces can do the same, perhaps ravioli.

    I was undecided about going to mass this morning.  Knee.

    I said screw the doctors, I’m going but I’m going on crutches.  I’m glad I did.  I feel better, got to see some of my “adopted” boys serve at the altar for the first time, and handed off the baby rosaries that I made to another Catholic Daughter, since I don’t know how reliable I’m going to be for a while.

    I had crutched up to the front to give a nod to CDA sister, so she could follow me back to my pew and and collect the rosaries.  As I turned to return to my seat, one of the deacons came out of a side door and got caught behind me.  I realized I was slowing him down, so I turned and said “Sucks to be me right now.”  He was so nice, replying with a very, very heartfelt “Thank you for being here.”  He made me feel that he understood and appreciated the challenges I was having to just be present at mass.

    I do love the folks at my church.  I got to give kudos to the two young men this morning, and talk to their mom and dad.  They are just the nicest people.  I feel privileged to call them friends.

    And for some reason, I noticed a lot more veiling at church this morning.  At my traditional high mass, the veiling ratio is about 85-90%.  This morning, it seemed that it was closer to 99%.  I noticed that some of the little girls have started veiling.  A lot of them already did, but there were some that seemed to be new to the veiling, whom I’ve noticed didn’t veil before.  Most of the men – of all ages – were already wearing suits, or at least slacks and a nice shirt.

    A lot of reverence going on.

    I watched a lecture by Fr. Chris Alar on modesty yesterday.  He’s now given 150 “back to the seminary with me” talks, and I’ve enjoyed those that I’ve been able to watch.  Some of the revelations about modesty were surprising to me, things I didn’t expect to hear.  And he emphasized that modesty is not just what we wear – it’s what we think, how we act, and how we react in life.  But he decided to go with that topic because of complaints he’d been getting, and he had recently faced a well-endowed woman coming up to receive Communion, wearing a skin tight t-shirt with the words “Weapons of Mass Destruction” emblazoned across her ample bosom.  Yeeee-uhhh, not appropriate for approaching the Lord.

    I remember one comment he made in another video: “I may be a priest, but I’m also a man, and when those women come forward with cleavage showing, it makes it difficult for me.”  In yesterday’s video, he emphasized not tempting others to think sinfully by the clothing we wear.

    He made some really interesting other points.

    I use more than one type of chili powder.  I use a hot chili powder mix and a pure ancho powder that gives a nice rich flavor.  I’ve also gotten to where I have almost eliminated any tomato ingredient.

    This is my spice source in Chicago.  I can’t brag on their products enough.

    The Spice House.

    I also agree that a lot of chili dishes are overloaded with chili powders.  It’s a delicate balance and you have to get the ratio of cumin and chiles just right.

    “There’s another order coming from Hamas to kill the Jews. I happen to be Jewish, and I don’t want to be killed.”

    That’s the succinct explanation Joshua, a doctor in Los Angeles, gave for why he decided to buy his first gun this week. He’s far from alone. New owners and trainers alike described scenes of gun stores and safety classes full of Jewish Americans hoping to protect themselves from the kind of slaughter that played out on October 7th when Hamas terrorists streamed over the border into Israel and ruthlessly slaughtered more than 1,400 men, women, and children.

    “I was at a local gun store a couple of days ago, where my wife was doing her firearms training test, and it was full,” Joshua, who–like several others who spoke to The Reload for this story–did not want his real name revealed in large part due to safety concerns, said. “There was a line outside to get in for people to do their tests, or buy firearms, or practice on the range. And I would say it was 90% Jewish people and Israelis.”

    He said the motivation of those in line was clear.

    “We all know what happened in Israel. It was a horrific attack on civilians by Hamas with the tally now up close to 1,500 dead,” Joshua said. “It’s the worst attack against Jews since the Holocaust. I never thought I’d say this, but it’s almost worse than the Nazis. They buried the bodies or cremated the bodies. The Nazis hid their atrocities. Hamas is live streaming their atrocities where they kill babies, shoot the elderly waiting at bus stops, rape women, and mow down young people at a music festival for peace.”

    It’s good to be Joe the VP.  Cash – 2.75 million worth – shows up just when you need it.

    Joe Biden’s summer beach house in Rehoboth, Delaware, where he has spent much of presidency on vacation, may have been paid for with Chinese bribe money.

    According to an investigation by the DailyMail.com, Joe Biden bought the home in 2017 for roughly $2.75 million in cash. What makes this purchase suspicious is that it came mere weeks after Hunter Biden’s infamous text to Henry Zhao, an executive at the Chinese oil company CEFC. According to a WhatsApp conversation from July 30, 2017, Hunter threatened Zhao to pay a promised bribe while invoking his father’s name, insisting that Joe Biden was there with him as he wrote the message.

    All things bright and beautiful this morning despite our trip to see kin in Wisconsin has been cancelled after a text from spouse’s brother that the weather there will be nasty all week, rain and cold.  The rain part is welcome as the drought was bad in Wisconsin also.  But the cold part after an unusually warm summer and fall and not much color on the trees yet (or maybe not at all) would be a good reason to postpone the trip.

    This brings back the memory of some 20 years ago when we were at their Door County (the thumb of Wisconsin that sticks out into Lake Michigan on one side and Green Bay on the other side) cottage in very late October.  The day after we arrived our Canadian friends sent down a wild and windy cold front that put the temp in the 40s by the thermometer but worse by windchill.  We were driving around looking at various lighthouses, of which there are many to guide the ships that sail in those waters.

    I stayed in the vehicle because of a sinus headache that didn’t need that kind of weather to make it worse.  Knew it was the right choice when I saw the others bent over at the waist barely able to walk through the wind toward the lighthouse.  And wind gusts started to make the suv wobble some with each gust.  Fortunately there was a Lands’ End catalog in the backseat that provided some distraction, although the pages ruffled some. 🙂  When they got back to the vehicle, bent over still and very cold, I asked them why they didn’t give up sooner.  Answer was they stayed mostly on the side away from the wind but finally gave up.

    All of this was a grand reminder that the Great Lakes weather can be worse than some seas have to offer.  Particularly Lake Superior can be very dangerous, as it is the largest and deepest by far. And it rarely freezes over.
