The guy has a point. Farmers in multiple countries have risen up against policies that make it hard for them to do what they do. And truckers. And entrepreneurs. Stoopid governments.
Farmers in the small town of Oristanio in Sardinia, Italy are out in force in protest of the EU’s proposed “green” agenda that would drive farmers bankrupt.

Wow I just received this in the mail. Dunno where it came from I figure Shannon sent it to me.
If others find that giving up is their best strategy, fine.
But leave me the hell alone for choosing otherwise.
Back in my programming days, there was a guy in my field who was a jackass. A compliment never passed his lips until it got the “backhand” treatment; e.g., “you look better than the last time I saw you”. He was arrogant and someone I avoided when possible. But when I needed to recommend someone to do some training because I was too busy working another project, his was the name I presented to my partners in charge. Did I like him? No. Did I respect his abilities and knowledge? Yep. Would I hang out with him? No. Would I… Read more »
So, I guess since he is no American savior there’s no point in fighting, much less voting.
is that right?
Hmm.
I haven’t met anyone who thinks Donald Trump is some kind of American savior.
Sorry I’ve been so delinquent in commenting. My back was such a problem last night that I couldn’t sleep, and some time during the night I finally gave in and took a muscle relaxant. I finally got some sleep, but boy have I had the groggies today. Mass took me to almost 1:00 by the time I finished hugging little girls and visiting with a friend. I stopped at the grocery store then came home and my 20 minute power nap turned into an hour visit with the sand man. Then I started dinner and Handsome Son joined us for… Read more »

Hey, Shakey. Here’s wishing you the best.
Hey Brother Phil
I hid a Judas Priest love song in my last post. I was just thinking that Judas Priests lead singer sure looked like grenade boy.
I know at this moment the choice to vote for Trump is a must. Mark my words he is not to be trusted. Like gramma used to say, be careful what you ask for you might get it. Read the story…… Trump thinks the world has not changed since his residency and that he will be able to wield and deal and bully like he did before. He has got another thing coming.

Kemp signs a bill to make it easier to go after DAs who refuse to prosecute or otherwise abuse their office. Way back in antiquity there was the story about a judge who decided that the circumstances in the particular case before him did not merit the punishment as laid down by Hammurabi. His superiors thought otherwise. He was skinned alive and his hide tanned; to upholster the bench of the judge who replaced him as a warning. Those in antiquity realized the power and responsibility that goes with exercising state power against the citizenry. How many wars, government overthrows,… Read more »

The strange thing was that it was happening with or without using WiFi on my phone.

Glenn Reynolds on Substack: Sorting for Stupidity in DC The reason why it’s so lucrative to influence the federal bureaucracy now is that the federal bureaucracy is sweeping and powerful. You would be a fool – as Microsoft learned in the 1980s and 1990s when it bragged about not having a DC office – not to try to influence it, if only out of self-protection. Back when the federal government was much smaller, say in the 1940s, 1950s, and even the 1960s, there was less call to influence it, and so the opportunities for people to earn big salaries by moving from… Read more »
Leftist Adventures in Destruction Part III ESG & BDS Last Gasp Attack Against Jews and Israel Charlie Gasparino: The remaining adherents of ESG, or Environmental Social Governance investing, now appear to be joining the anti-Israeli lobby in a last-ditch attempt to remain relevant, according to veteran economist Jerry Bowyer, author of books on finance and a decided non-woke shareholder advocate. and here is the perfect analogy, But it’s not dead yet; far from it in fact. Bowyer’s research shows that the ESG of today is kind of like the German Army at the end of World War II when it… Read more »
Leftist Adventures In Destruction Part II The Real Minimum Wage Is Zero In 2022, Seattle’s City Council passed an ordinance mandating a minimum earnings floor for app-based food delivery drivers in the city. The law finally went into effect in January 2024, but so far the main result has been customers deleting their delivery apps en masse, food orders plummeting, and driver pay cratering. and, Heralded as a “first-of-its-kind” legislative breakthrough when it passed, the first two months of the ordinance’s operation have provided a grim real-world Economics 101 lesson. First, the delivery companies were forced to add a $5 fee onto… Read more »
Leftist Adventures in Destruction Part I The Real Minimum Wage Is Zero Lyft and Uber said they will cease operations in Minneapolis after the city’s council voted Thursday to override a mayoral veto and require that ride-hailing services increase driver wages to the equivalent of the local minimum wage of $15.57 an hour.Lyft called the ordinance “deeply flawed,” saying in a statement that it supports a minimum earning standard for drivers but not the one passed by the council.“It should be done in an honest way that keeps the service affordable for riders,” Lyft said. “This ordinance makes our operations unsustainable, and… Read more »
It took all day, but some time during the night we finally got Internet service. We couldn’t even get out TV to read the antenna signal. I thought it might be the TV, but it’s working fine now.

The Rocha affair, just one in a string of cases in which Americans accused of spying for Havana have penetrated virtually every segment of the U.S. national security structure, points to a larger problem, former U.S. and Cuban intelligence officers say. Cuba and its intelligence service, the Dirección de Inteligencia, are in the world’s top ranks when it comes to recruiting spies, while the American teams responsible for stopping them are understaffed and outmatched, according to former U.S. counterintelligence officials.Cuba has “the best damn intelligence service in the world” for cultivating agents, said Brian Latell, a former CIA analyst who… Read more »

Hubby was able to get out this morning and meet with the concrete guys at our rental property. We’ve been gutting the latest vacancy and Hubby’s wanted to change out the raised floor with a concrete floor, to help eliminate critter problems. It’s right next to a large drainage ditch, so this’ll be a very good step in preventing future critter issues. We’re also adding some square footage, since it’s a very small unit. This will provide more room for a washer and dryer, which will help rent the unit. We’re also moving the water heater outside to its own… Read more »
Morning, gang!
Our internet has been out for most of the morning. Weirdly, I couldn’t even connect via my phone. I spent the morning pushing the vacuum cleaner and setting up a rosary for my cousin, with whom I had a very pleasant phone visit last night. He found my grandma’s broken rosary and her missals, and he hopes to be able to drop them off her at my house today. In our conversation, he said he’d like to have a rosary done in Mardi Gras colors. I was fortunate to find some recently arrived beads that I can use. In a… Read more »
