That Elizabeth Holmes woman is over in the women’s prison in Bryan after stealing over $700 million fron investors on a phony blood testing scheme. She’s had her original sentence reduced twice and has to pay $250 a month to her victims to cover her restitution order of $452 million. How many centuries will it take for Thieving Liz to… Read more »
I watched a video earlier of a woman in NY walking down a sidewalk, oblivious to the predator coming up behind her with a looped belt. Predator slips the belt over her head and pulls it tight as he pulls her backwards. She falls to the ground and struggles against the belt, which tightens as the predator drags her by… Read more »
There are two disgusting parts to the Biden assault on the Nation of Israel this week. One is the sanction against selling weapons and ammunition to Israel. The other, and maybe even more dastardly act, is the Biden White House illegally and unconstitutionally waiving specific laws passed by Congress prohibiting any US equipment, weapons or ammo being sold to countries… Read more »
Hubby and I had a nice lunch, but my menu choices at our favorite Italian restaurant was severely limited. Dang near everything on the menu was breaded before it was cooked or mixed with pasta. I had a discussion with the waiter about my dietary restrictions, and he gave me a few selections. I settled on the pork chops with… Read more »
I have written about this SOB since 2007 at Lone Star Times. He was fired from the Obama administration and then resurfaced again there a couple of years later. Of course, Biden hired him to run the Iran nuclear negotiations left over from Obama’s term. He hates Israel and Jews and his career is proof of it. According to the… Read more »
Well, good riddance. A former congressman known for his “non-interventionist” foreign policy, which led him to blame Jews for the Iraq war and accuse a pro-Israel “cabal” of targeting him, has lost the Indiana Republican primary.In the race for the GOP nomination in the state’s 8th District, businessman Mark B. Messmer received 30,661 votes (38.5%); “paleoconservative” John Hostetler (who served in Congress from 1994… Read more »
AstraZeneca pulling their COVID mRNA vaccine off the global market after admitting it causes cardiac problems is certainly notable and huge news.

It’s hard for me to wrap my head around vessel over 2 football fields long and about 100 feet wide moving from waves, but it is. Very slow and mild, but still moving.

Greetings from the foggy Pacific Ocean, I am very grateful that I am inside where it is warm and dry. Today we will be at sea all day. Our first excursion is tomorrow where we explore a glacier.
My lovely Mrs. is getting a massage right now.
I had a rough sleeping night; the meds from the doc aren’t doing a darn thing for the pain, so I may go back to Tyolenol and/or Aleve. Hubby said the gabapentin didn’t do much for him, either. She gave me a huge prescription of them, so she’s expecting that I have a long haul in front of me for… Read more »
I caught this video as I was making my rosary this morning. It’s all Catholic, if course, but if you pick it up around the 28 minute mark, towards the end, the priest makes some rather spot on observations about the time we are living in. https://youtu.be/3x7DG6keDm4?si=1DdqQlCd5s4ztfo-
Another October 7th story. This one relayed by Miha Schwartzenberg. Amar – a young, handsome as hell Bedouin man,father of 2 small children, arrived in Sderot on the morning of October 7th, to visit his brothers. On the road,he saw a mother with 2 little girls, screaming for help from a car. Their father was shot to death in the… Read more »
Thank you, Texpat, for the info on upgrade to Business Class.

Good Morning Hamsters, Light mists in every direction this morning, up to a smothering 82 already, and barely any sunlight make a recipe for misery outdoors today. More misery possible when the sun comes out. We’ve already had a battle royal on our garden room roof between two crows fighting over an acorn or two. Noisy as all get-out but… Read more »
One thing I noticed about the cabin crew was both United flights had senior flight attendants who were big, strong, tall, fit black men. Not the stereotypical gay effeminate white boys as usual. I think this is a security measure because I guarantee no one on that plane could’ve won against either one of these guys. If my theory is… Read more »
Bill Ackman on X. He was the first billionaire to raise hell about the anti-Israel/Hatred of Jews at Harvard. He is, as much as anyone, responsible for Claudine Gay resigning as president there. By withholding weapons from @Israel in the midst of its hostage negotiations with Hamas, @POTUS Biden sent a clear signal to Hamas that the administration was tipping… Read more »

We made it into Newark two minutes early last night after leaving 25 minutes late. We had a tailwind starting out at 60 mph and it reached as high as 120 mph over the Midwest and Great Lakes. I thought the captain was kidding about Chicago, but we flew right over it and about Cleveland and Lake Erie we hit… Read more »
My brother and I have owned a lot of trucks and spent most our lives in them. We liked ’em and loved ’em, but we are both glad to be out of trucks these days. Shannon’s Toyota minivan is plush and very comfortable for two guys with bad backs.
Since this is “Betty White Day” This interesting item popped up over yonder; Betty White’s Seamist-green 1977 Cadillac Seville owned and driven for 25 years by Betty is on display in the AACA museum in Hershey, PA. It was a surprise gift from her husband Allen Ludden. She nicknamed the car “Parakeet.” It was a surprise gift, too, as she… Read more »
How about a 65 Dart GT, controvertible blue with white interior, 273/4 barrel/4 speed.

Picking up a new to me truck, an ‘04 Chevy 2500 gas, 4 door crew cab. This thing is immaculate, old man owned it, garage kept, 110K miles drives like new. It is in Splendora, looked at it last night, getting cash out of the bank this morning and going to pick it up.
I guess Texpat made it home safely and Bones is lost somewhere in the Pacific Northwest. I hope he’s using that Drink Package judiciously. 😉
Good coffee this morning.
Oh and Mornin’ Gang
I’ll stop now.
Thought the weather was gonna miss me this time but here comes the last straggler storm, bearing down on me.
This is fun. Getting chilly.

You really must watch this. If ever there was any doubt about the absolute evil of Google, you will be disabused of that notion.
“Hey Google, How Many Jews Were Killed by Nazis?” vs. “Hey Google, what was the Nakba?”
I’m gonna go take a nap before mass. I’d hate to fall asleep in the middle of the Gospel.

These idiots want to capture CO2 and store it underground so that they can refreeze the Arctic. Apparently they have no clue that CO2 is essential for plant growth. I don’t think they will quit until 90% of humans are dead.

My lovely Mrs. is getting a massage right now.
By the way, I grew up spelling “protestor” ending in “or” instead of “er”. The semi-literate crowd has finally made the “er” spelling optional.

I always had a company truck, when I retired I’ve been a man without one and it has really crimped my style lol. Time to get stuff done now!
