Your car is ten years old. If it’s over 100K miles, it’s not worth much anyway. You are indeed quickly headed to zero – I agree. But I would never dissuade you from keeping it since y’all know the car well, and have already spent a lot of money surviving a cracked block. And Hubby can still do some work… Read more »
Iranian citizens are praising the Israeli army and calling on the Jewish State to assassinate key ruling figures such as the Supreme Leader Ayatollah Khameini, as Iran girds for a potential Israeli retaliation following an unprecedented missile and drone attack.Residents of Iran are expressing those sentiments via social media posts and subversive street graffiti, with many asking Israel to bring down… Read more »
Well, it looks like I need a new catalytic converter. Mechanic recommended getting OEM parts and not the knockoff like the last one we bought. $1K+change But cheaper than another car. Hubby was talking about buying me a minivan to replace this car, but I couldn’t see making that expense. “But if you keep driving it, the value of it… Read more »
Oh, and I have a bad habit of putting seeds out without marking them, since I’m having problems finding markers that will retain the labeling. The sun washes out Sharpie, I’ve found. I also have amaranth trying to establish itself everywhere, which I’m not terribly annoyed with, since it’s edible. But it’s a lot, so I’ve been thinning it out.… Read more »
I woke up this morning to a new shooting pain in my right shoulder. When I reached up to feel the shoulder, it didn’t seem right as if a bone was out of place compared to my left shoulder. A cursory search reveals “Acromioclavicular Joint” or AC joint and I apparently separated it yesterday during our spring outdoor cleanup marathon.… Read more »
Hubby & Gang had a hard weekend, working on one of our properties. Handsome even turned down barbecued pork ribs, and for him to turn down food told us just how tahrred he was. Hubby is taking it easy today. I talked to him about the garden last week, regarding the tub that took a nosedive into my asparagus bed… Read more »
Michael Oren, former Israeli ambassador to the US, historian and author has written a column, Michael Oren: How Did the War Begin ? With Iran’s Appeasers in Washington It’s a brief and yet concise timeline of events that led to Hamas savagery and Iran’s homicidal arrogance. Highly recommended. Others might cite Israel’s willingness to play by the mullahs’ rules, retaliating… Read more »
A point I haven’t seen anyone make. Saudi Arabia leaked they were getting ready to announce normalizing relations with Israel 2 or 3 days before Hamas started the massacre in Israel. The Saudis withdrew the offer or at least postponed it. It was reported on Thursday Indonesia, the world’s most populous Muslim nation, was entering formal talks to normalize relations… Read more »
HEADLINE: HOLY CRAP: Joe Biden Approved Iran’s Assault on Israel ‘Within Certain Limits’
Biden is a backstabbing, evil, corrupt, scumbag on his best day. He is evil to his core and hell can not claim his soul fast enough for me. Netanyahu would be very wise to understand just how treacherous Biden is.
Biden’s goons are letting millions of creeps, punks, terrorist and thugs into America and giving them money and documents. They are coming from China, hostile Arab countries and destitute Latino nations. The one place near our shores where innocent people are suffering under an evil, corrupt Communist tyranny is Cuba. I have sympathy for any refugees from that hellhole, but… Read more »
Fr. Felix tried to encourage us yesterday. He mentioned in his homily that we shouldn’t let Pachapapa and his tyrannical behavior scare us away. Fr. Felix assured us that “good things are happening in the seminaries”. I’ve heard the same: a lot of the priests in the development pipeline are more hard core traditional than in the last few decades.… Read more »
We mailed a check to the local water company 8 days ago. They claim they have not received it. According to Google Maps, it’s a 44 minute walk or 14 minute ride on a bicycle to the water company office from our house. I’m convinced slow-walking the mail is part of a federal conspiracy to force the public to accept… Read more »
I made a rosary for my Catholic Daughters regent. She is sponsoring a young girl through Confirmation, and asked me to make a rosary for her. I asked her for colors, and baby blue was one of the choices. I finished it this morning, and it is sweet. I had some baby blue with roses beads for the Our Father… Read more »
BSue is coming along nicely. She is walking with a walker for the time being, using her pedal machine 4-6 times a day. We start our walking regimen after the visit with the doctor. She starts physical therapy with a therapist this week. We are sleeping on our recliner couch to keep her foot elevated while sleeping. I will be… Read more »
Anybody gotten tagged for Harris County jury duty lately? They went from that huge “assembly room” to this dump of a room with the most uncomfortable seats they could find. Now they have this new “jury assembly” building. What is noteworthy about this building is the new process for simply getting to the assembly rooms (there are four of them).… Read more »
Victor Davis Hanson and a concise summary of ten blunders of the Biden Administration. If any R did such things, the Rs in the country would rise up and declare said person guilty of treason and demand his removal at a minimum. Biden and his controllers belong in GITMO for deliberate actions against the interest of America.
Amazing: John “Lumpy” Fetterman takes the strong pro-Israel side when it comes to Iran. He is a loose cannon on their side, but he might actually be in the process of being red-pilled as he continues to recover from his stroke.
Lying liars gotta lie. One can not make a Marxist change his ways; the only way to be rid of Marxist ideology is to drag said Marxists out of the classroom, off the campus, and away from a microphone.
And not buying refurbished or generic cat converters is very good advice.

Sounds like WB got picked.
I recommend the Toyota Sienna Minivan, when you’re ready.
Do not buy the Chrysler.

Murder trial.
Dude got dead due to a deadly weapon: a motor vehicle. Defendant is involved in that bedeading.
All I know now. I’ll add details next week after trial is over.

Are you kidding me? Ercot has declared a power emergency because temps will hit the 80s across the state. Damn we are toast when it hits the mid 90s
The brazenness of the illegal mobs, trying to pull down a fence with Texas troops RIGHT THERE. Texas responds with pepper.

Mr. C. has his usual pithy comments on the current legal stuff. He has promised to keep us up to date on the daily doings.

He also has a few choice words about what’s going on with Iran/Israel.

How about that? Ole Sarge has 5K+ subscribers on his “Bannerman’s Camp” site over yonder.
Oh and Mornin’ Gang
Mornin’ peeps. Nice to have the place back to ourselves after having company for the past week.
