Be careful, Katfish!
He’s out doing God’s work, and Pelosi slams her bishop for denying her Communion.
Because…abortion.
“We go right to the one issue, because everything else, we are pretty much in sync when it comes to the social compact of the Catholic bishops and the rest. But they are willing to abandon the bulk of it because of one thing,” the California Democrat said.
She is either the most clueless individual in the Church, or the most manipulative.
Maybe she’s a psychopath. The OC video ‘splains a lot of things.

Hey Super Dave – glad to see you… After watching the morning news/weather, I was praying that your area was not involved in the “tornado outbreak” (as they reported it on Houston TV/news)

bsue, Nope the bad weather was way north of us, we were supposed to get some rain this morning but only a trace far and it should be sunny by the afternoon. We certainly need the rain but maybe next time. Prayers for the folks in Mississippi that were hit with tornadoes.

Spotted over yonder, I’ve got to share this; A couple threw their dogs ashes into a river and a photographer phot-shopped it for them…..Dang,is somebody cutting onions in here?

Watching Fox national news they mentioned that a tornado warning was issued for the Dothan Alabama area. The map shows the weather to the SW of Dothan, Hartford Slocomb area. I tuned to the local news and they had the radar showing a line from north Florida up through Geneva, Hartford and Dothan. Tornado watch until 8:30 AM. For the most part this is south of us but we’re getting a light shower now.

Good Morning Hamsters,
We are getting more moisture thanks to morning fog again and a little rain yesterday afternoon. I forgot to check the rain gauge on out little weather station, so the total for yesterday is gone with the wind unless spouse knows how to find it. But we did have a small puddle on the sidewalk. Then of course there is the gauge on a fenceline in the paddock that should have something in it….
Today is reserved to finish gathering the information for the income tax preparer on Monday. Regarding charitable donations, help the home folks first and then others after that. And give thanks again that we live in Texas, as I note that various reports from around the country regarding the financial status of many states is not comparable to what Texas has, or Florida, Missouri, Tennessee, and other states that have Republican Governors.

Nice find on the OC header video. I also like the way he divides the video feed into subsections and labels them so you can go straight to different aspects of his subject.

EXCELLENT O/C VIDEO! What a magnificent teacher that guy is. He really knows his stuff and makes it easy to understand.
Early childhood trauma induced psychopathy/sociopathy is tragic, yet it gives new meaning to the term ‘damaged goods’. The genetic psychopaths are indeed potentially scary people, fortunately, most are not inherently evil.

Making a mockery of womanhood and femininity.
Canyon, Texas is south of Amarillo and due west of Palo Duro Canyon. Sitting right in the middle of town is West Texas A&M University whose president is Walter Wendler. A few days go he banned a drag queen event on campus and drew national attention for it.
When students at West Texas A&M decided to put on a drag show — because that’s what everybody seems to be doing these days — President Walter Wendler promptly put a stop to it. And Wendler’s primary reason for doing so is one of the most compelling arguments against the left’s sudden, all-consuming obsession with drag.
Here is Walter Wendler’s remarkable letter to students and faculty at West Texas A&M:
West Texas A&M University will not host a drag show on campus. It was advertised for March 31, 2023, as an effort to raise money for The Trevor Project. The nonprofit organization focuses on suicide prevention—a noble cause—in the LGBTQ community. Any person considering self-harm for any reason is tragic.
I believe every human being is created in the image of God and, therefore, a person of dignity. Being created in God’s image is the basis of Natural Law. James Madison and Thomas Jefferson, prisoners of the culture of their time as are we, declared the Creator’s origin as the foundational fiber in the fabric of our nation as they breathed life into it.
and,
WT endeavors to treat all people equally. Drag shows are derisive, divisive and demoralizing misogyny, no matter the stated intent. Such conduct runs counter to the purpose of WT. A person or group should not attempt to elevate itself or a cause by mocking another person or group. As a university president, I would not support “blackface” performances on our campus, even if told the performance is a form of free speech or intended as humor. It is wrong. I do not support any show, performance or artistic expression which denigrates others—in this case, women—for any reason. WT intends to provide fair opportunities to all based on academic performance. Ideas, not ideology, are the coin of our realm. A university campus, charged by the state of Texas to treat each individual fairly, should elevate students based on achievement and capability, performance in a word, without regard to group membership—an implacable and exacting standard based on educational mission and service to all, sanctioned by the legislature, the governor and numerous elected and appointed officials.
Right on cue, the LGBTQ lobby goes to court.
After three days of protests in reaction to West Texas A&M University (WT) President Walter Wendler’s letter canceling a planned on-campus drag show, two students filed a lawsuit Friday morning in Amarillo Federal Court against the university and Texas A&M University System officials.
Student leaders Barrett Bright and Lauren Stovall of Spectrum WT, a student organization for LGBTQIA + students and allies, are named as plaintiffs in the case represented by the Foundation for Individual Rights in Education (FIRE). Named parties from the university system are WT President Walter Wendler, Chris Thomas, vice president of student affairs, and John Sharp, as well as members of the Texas A&M Board of Regents.
As much as I admire the Foundation for Individual Rights in Education, they don’t always take side I am on in legal disputes. I hope they lose big time here.

RE: OC video
I thought it was interesting about adolescents exhibiting various characteristics of psychopathy making it impossible to accurately diagnose the normal from future adult psychopaths. I think that is probably very true.
Question:
If that is true then how do psychologists and physicians justify transgender drug therapies and surgery in pubescent and post-pubescent teenagers ? How do medical personnel allow this ethically ? They can’t answer this.
-
They can not intellectually justify the two positions and hold them at the same time; I think they call it cognitive dissonance. Could this be a mental disorder as Dr. Michael Savage insists? Personally, I think it is demonic influence.

Aviation story of the week.
This story has kept my attention because of the bizarre death of one passenger.
On March 3, a business-class jet built by Canadian aircraft manufacturer Bombardier was flying from New Hampshire to Virginia when things suddenly went very wrong. A series of alarms began going off in the cockpit. The pilots, following a troubleshooting checklist, shut off an automatic trim stabilizer on the plane’s tail. At that point, the Bombardier Challenger 300 twin-engine jet suddenly ascended so sharply that the two pilots and three passengers – a husband and wife and their son- were subjected to four G’s of downward force. The plane then went into a nosedive before surging back upward again. The pilots eventually regained control of the plane, but not before the mother, Dana Hyde of Maryland, was thrown violently around the cabin. The plane was diverted for an emergency landing, but Hyde later died from blunt trauma injuries at a local hospital. An NTSB investigation is ongoing, but clearly, a lot of things went wrong. (NY Post)

You are assuming they follow a set of standards, either moral or logical. They live in a world of DoubleThink.

#19 – Here’s the NTSB Preliminary Report on the event that killed the Obama appointed lawyer. There is a reason they suggest that you keep your seat belt fastened even when things seem to be going OK. Negative 4 G’s will bang your head on the ceiling and break your neck if you aren’t strapped in.

So we have a charter school in Tallahassee, Florida sponsored by the local school district. It’s called the Tallahassee Classical School and is required by state law to teach classical arts and history. Part of of the curriculum included photos of one of the world’s most famous sculptures, David by Michelangelo.
Three students’ parents complained and the school board chairman forced the principal to resign. I think this is stupid.
Ms Carrasquilla told the paper that the school board’s chair, Barney Bishop, informed her that she would either need to quit or she would be fired. Though it appears he did not specify why the principal was asked to leave, she believes it was related to a lesson on Renaissance art.
The paper spoke to Mr Bishop, who said he did give the ultimatum to the principal. However, he refused to explain why he did so on advice of the school’s legal team.
We went on field trips when I was in jr. high school to museums displaying classical paintings and sculptures depicting nude males and females. None of my classmates, to my knowledge, were corrupted by any of this and the only comments I recall were some kids complaining about being bored. There were plenty of other things outside of school and museums to provide temptation and decadence.
If a parent chooses to send their child to a school dedicated to and required by law to focus curriculum on classical arts and then you complain about it, aren’t you the moron ?
Complaining about a 17 foot tall Carrera marble statue of a famous Jewish biblical figure being pornographic seems absurd. There is nothing erotic about the sculpture unless you have some very strange inclinations.

We had the annual cemetery cleanup in Millheim today. I kinda overdid it.

Hubby just called. He went to a car show in Nacogdoches, and somewhere on the way back he filled up his gas tank. The car is now on the side of the road, and he sees SAND in the bottom of the tank.
New gas filter ‘n everything was checked before he left. He’s just a smidge wissed off and disappointed. Fortunately, he’s on my AAA membership and he’s waiting for his tow to arrive.
He was pretty darn perky earlier in the day. Not how he wanted today to end.
Oh, and cutworms took out 3 of 6 bean plants in one of my tubs. I had three toilet paper rolls so I sunk those in the dirt around the remaining plants. I also removed the caterpillar that was working on #4 bean plant. Looks like I’ll be planting more beans tomorrow.

Finally got to check the C&C for today. Sounds like a lot going on:
Good morning, C&C, and Happy Saturday! Welcome to the slightly-abbreviated Weekend Edition. I’m typing this from the lobby of the Starling Hotel in Atlanta, where I will shortly be delivering the morning Keynote for Steve Kirsch’s sold-out Covid Litigation Conference. I had the pleasure of meeting Steve in person for the first time last night, and we had a nice chat about Coffee & Covid.
Steve said he took a respectful delegation over to attend Georgia Southern’s competing event a few days ago — with tickets — but was escorted off property by the school’s law enforcement delegation.
Anyway, in your roundup: new multiplier orders; France burns while Macron fiddles with wristwatches costing more than some luxury cars; now Germany’s largest bank, Deutsche Bank, is teetering; Janet Yellen yanks the entire U.S. financial regulatory management to a secret meeting; House passes doomed Parents Bill of Rights modeled after Florida’s; Florida passes permitless carry bill; and a DeSantis press conference on CBDC that ought to shine at least a ray of hope.

Childers has a worthy multiplier event:
OPERATION MULTIPLIER: I have the great privilege to bring you today’s orders, which are joining a critical multiplier for the legal and political defense of Dr. John Littell of Florida, who was abruptly decertified this week by the American Board of Family Medicine for spreading “covid misinformation.” You might recall Dr. Littell from last week, after he addressed the Sarasota Memorial Hospital’s board about Ivermectin, and was shockingly removed by police for his trouble.
This week’s de-certification MIGHT possibly be connected with Dr. Littell’s public advocacy for the Nobel-prize-winning, lifesaving drug last week. The timing is certainly highly suggestive. What do you think?
Here’s why this multiplier is important: If the ABFM succeeds in easily de-certifying Dr. Littell, then it and other medical boards will be emboldened, and this will be just the beginning. It is critically-important to hold the line here, for Dr. Littell as well as all the other independent medical voices of reason who were fundamentally necessary to ending the pandemic.
Here is the link, which my office confirmed with Dr. Littell as legitimate yesterday. Click NOW and give any affordable amount that you won’t miss, but ending in a ‘2’ (like $1.02, $2, $22, $202, etc): https://www.givesendgo.com/Dr_Littell?utm_campaign=Dr_Littell. The ‘2’ is so the organizers will know where our multiplier donations came from.
Also feel free to leave an encouraging message for Dr. Littell who, as you can imagine, is feeling downright persecuted at this point, just for saying in public what should be painfully obvious to even the dullest medical board examiner.
Do it NOW, and then come right back and keep reading.
Before I explain multiplication to new readers, I must add a disclaimer: My law firm represents Dr. Littell and part of the funds raised may offset legal costs. This is the first time in three years since I started C&C that I’ve ever ordered a multiplier for someone with whom I have any relationship, FYI.
Being part of a multiplier is an additional benefit of being in the C&C army. For the easy, affordable cost of any amount, however small, we all get to be part of a greater movement, a statement, a force that punches far beyond what any of us can afford to do on our own. We need everyone to help, every single reader, even if this is your very first C&C. When everybody chips in, then it adds up fast and we actually move the needle, showing our adversaries the strength of our collective resolve, as we have done over and over these last few years.
I promise that you will feel GREAT after you join in, and it literally only takes a few seconds. Here’s the link again, do it NOW if you didn’t before: https://www.givesendgo.com/Dr_Littell?utm_campaign=Dr_Littell.
I don’t often discuss his multipliers, but this one sounds important. Well, more important.

Late again for reading today’s comments, but I have managed to complete organizing most of the income tax info today. Great relief that it’s almost ready to turn over to accounting firm on Monday morning. And now we can have our kitchen table back for breakfast before I finish making copies of everything that goes to the accounting firm. Never let vital information like that out of the house without making copies of everything that leaves the house. Tiresome I know, but better to do that than have something lost at the accountant’s place, or worse yet have it all lost accidentally on the way over.
So good night all.

We managed to get almost a quarter inch of rain late yesterday and we may get some more this morning. The serious rain roared through south of us early and was gone by 9 AM or so. I got out and worked on the backside of the little pasture across the road and what a fine day topped out at 82 and we broke down and cranked up the A/C again.
Prayers go out for the folks in NE Mississippi, that tornado cut diagonally all the way across the state and into Alabama. The pictures and video shows total destruction in places.

This is an unusual and disturbing story concerning life in South Korea. Their birthrate has plunged to 0.78 and is the lowest in the world, even below China. Young women in South Korea are opting out of society and marriage. The traditional roles have started to break down and women aren’t going to put up with the brutal way Korean men treat women.
A World Without Men
While scrolling through Twitter in 2018, Youngmi came across footage of protests taking place in the streets of Seoul. In South Korea, where cases of femicide, revenge porn, and dating violence are widespread, a surge in spy-cam sex crimes, overwhelmingly committed by men, had mostly resulted in fines and suspended jail sentences, if they were prosecuted at all. That was not the case, however, for one 25-year-old woman who had taken a nonconsensual photo of a nude male model at art school and posted it online; she was sentenced to ten months in prison and court-ordered sexual-violence counseling. The demonstrations were a reaction to the blatant hypocrisy.
and,
Soon, Youngmi shaved her head, too, and stopped wearing makeup, joining the so-called “escape the corset” movement happening among young women in South Korea. The movement, which first gained popularity in 2018, saw Korean women publicly turn away from societally imposed beauty standards by cutting their hair short and going barefaced. (Youngmi was not alone — in 2019, a survey found that 24 percent of women in their 20s reported cutting back their spending on beauty products in the previous year, with many saying they no longer felt they needed to put in the effort.) This eventually led Youngmi to “4B,” a smaller but growing movement among Korean women. 4B is shorthand for four Korean words that all start with bi-, or “no”: The first no, bihon, is the refusal of heterosexual marriage. Bichulsan is the refusal of childbirth, biyeonae is saying no to dating, and bisekseu is the rejection of heterosexual sexual relationships. It is both an ideological stance and a lifestyle, and many women I spoke to extend their boycott to nearly all the men in their lives, including distancing themselves from male friends.
It seems like all of East Asia has stopped having babies.
In December of that year, as Korea’s fertility rate hovered at 1.2 births per woman (it has since slid to 0.78, the lowest in the world), the Korean government launched an online “National Birth Map” that showed the number of women of reproductive age in each municipality, illustrating just what it expected of its female citizens. (South Korean president Yoon Suk-yeol won the election in March 2022 with a message that blamed feminism for Korea’s low birth rate, and a promise to abolish the country’s Ministry of Gender Equality and Family. ) Women were outraged by the map, observing that the government appeared to consider them “livestock”; one Twitter user reportedly created a mock map illustrating the concentration of Korean men with sexual dysfunction. Several of these digital feminists responded with a boycott to the reproductive labor expected by the state and decided that the surest way to avoid pregnancy was to avoid men altogether. It was through these online communities that 4B emerged as a slogan, and ultimately a movement.

This is actually a clear, concise and brief explanation of how Biden’s administration blew up the financial system by a leftist writer.
In 2020 alone, according to the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, bank deposits rose by 21.7 percent, the largest increase since the 1940s. The following year, deposits rose by another 10.7 percent. At the end of 2021, total bank deposits were an astonishing $4.4 trillion greater than they’d been just two years earlier.

This is outrageous.
Hernandez said this informant had infiltrated their defense team and was even attending prayer meetings with the defendant’s family. Worse, the government knew the witness was an informant in December but did not disclose that information until Wednesday. The defense had asked for a list of all FBI informants involved in the Proud Boys in discovery. The DOJ failed to provide all the names and instead they have been trickling out. It’s starting to look like there were more government informants in the Proud Boys than Proud Boys.
The FBI had an undercover spy working on the defense team and didn’t disclose it to the judge.
It really is time to gut the FBI and start completely over.

If they find Joe Biden’s name on this object, things will be even more interesting.
It’s been a little while since we heard anything new about the destruction of the Nord Stream pipeline last year and the MSM hasn’t seemed to show a lot of interest in it for some mysterious reason. But there was a new update this week. Denmark has been investigating the scene for months and now they’ve identified an unknown “object” near one of the pipes. When the discovery was first announced, Vladimir Putin said that he suspected it could be part of another remote detonation device, but the Dutch now have a different theory. In any event, they’ve invited the Russians to come to pick it up if they’re really interested. (CBS News)

If this works, it’s going to spread like wildfire across the USA.
The school board wars are turning up the temperature on porn-pushing administrators. In Fairport, N.Y., a group of parents has grown tired of asking for the school board to remove explicit books and materials from their schools. After months of asking nicely, speaking to the board, writing letters, and other efforts, the Fairport Educational Alliance has hired a lawyer and filed a claim against the board’s insurance bond.
and,
The group has asked for $100,000 in damages, but the goal is not the money. The parents simply want the school to get rid of the pornographic materials. If the insurance company fails to hold the board accountable, the parents aren’t done with them. If the board has not removed the materials from the schools by this coming Tuesday, they plan to immediately file criminal complaints with the sheriff’s office and the local police, showing that the board is in violation of federal and state law. The Fairport Police, the Monroe County Sheriff’s office, and the District Attorney have been notified of the intent to file criminal complaints and have received the material from the parents’ group asking them to review the board’s actions. Those complaints will have to be investigated and if authorities do nothing, they will have to explain why it’s okay for a school board to provide children with pornography, including child pornography (visual depictions of children performing sex acts), in violation of the law.

Interesting tidbit posted by John Rich (of Big&Rich) over on TruthSocial:
Ppl don’t realize that EVERY teacher and school board member have to have an insured bond for them to serve. There are different insurers in different states, but they are easy to find. If you make a claim of “child endangerment” to the insurance company that backs the bond of a particular educator, they have no choice but to respond, or the teacher is uninsurable and cannot continue. This is the not a lawsuit, but a “bond call” which is an achilles heel. I’d suggest researching your state ASAP.
I have no idea IF this is accurate – IMHO definitely well worth looking into!

I’ll forever regret not getting WeatherTech floor mats right away for the van. As I’ve shared before, the Toyota mats and carpet simply will not give up sand and dead grass to a vacuum. Next trip to the manual car wash I’m going to try water blasting it out of the mats.

Morning, y’all. It’s been drizzling here ever since I finally got up. The cats were desperate, because I simply didn’t want to roll out, and they were all starving. Out back, stray cat Billy was waiting under the breezeway for his breakfast, and after that, he moved up under the old decrepit roof attached to the old decrepit deck. The family that lived here before we bought it 28 years ago had a hot tub under that roof, but we persuaded them to unhook all that mess, and take it with them. The empty spot under that roof turned out to be perfect for suburban wildlife. Billy qualifies! He is the most timid adult cat I have ever tried to make friends with. I’d like to take him to the vet and see if he needs to be neutered (or anything else) — but after being hand fed for 2 weeks, he still is afraid of me getting too close to him.

We got home about 3 AM from our Corpus run this weekend. Slept late, nap coming later.
We had practice Friday night, we excited about some of the changes we made this off season but we were terrible. Worked on a couple things yesterday and they worked on the track all day and it was better, still not there but managed to pull off a third place finish in the Sportsman class in the feature! Next week, Texanna – out of Edna.

I’ve/we’ve been using Weather Tech for years and I currently have a set in the GMC replacing the factory mats that were pretty dang good just not as good as the Weather Tech. We’ve always used them in the Tahoe’s including the rear mat but wife’s latest Black Beauty came with a Chevy/GM set that is actually better than Weather Tech. Hard to believe but the GM product is just as durable but covers and fits better. We’ve not got around to getting a rear mat yet so we’re using the old tan one from the white Tahoe. It is just slightly too small and of course the wrong color so I’ll be getting a black one soon. I just need to find that Round-Tuit.

Re: feral cats
When I was young, we had a buncha cats one summer: four mommas each had four babies. One of the male cats disappeared into the surrounding fields, and we’d assumed he’d become bait for a hawk or some other predator.
He showed back up a few years later. He only hung out for a day or so, and I was the only one he’d allow to touch him. I remember running my hand over him and marveling at how strong the muscles were underneath the fur. Even his gray tabby fur was thinner and sleeker than similar siblings. He just had an aura of “I’m badass”. He had obviously become the predator instead of the victim. He let me scratch his chin and behind his ears, run my hand down his back – but he wouldn’t cuddle in my lap. I just felt privileged that he let me spend some time with him and seemed to reciprocate.
We had one day of mutual respect and affection, then he disappeared, never to be seen again.

I picked up a rosary repair job at church this morning. A friend told me that a choir member had broken his rosary, and I was able to track him down this morning. Thank goodness he had all of the beads – matching beads is a real…challenge. He asked me to save the string, and I told him I’d do my best. It’s a knotted string rosary, so I’m going to have to see if I can pick the knots loose. If I can’t, it’s gonna end up in bits and pieces.
I didn’t guarantee anything.

Keep us posted on Paige events. I may just head over there, if I’ not singing that night.

We will run Cotton Bowl Speedway 4/29, 5/27, 6/10 & 8/20, all Saturday nights. Of course I’ll be babbling on about them as they come up whether anyone’s listening or not. 😀

I managed to fix the rosary without cutting it into pieces. Now, just gotta get it back to the young man.

Here’s my “OMG Harper!” story for the year. I am watching a TV show, an old favorite, that recently moved to Peacock, and is available nowhere else at all. We have always had Xfinity as our TV carrier, so I can watch my show by logging into my Peacock account through Xfinity from my laptop. I’ve also become addicted to watching Patty Mayo bounty hunter videos on Facebook. I’m not doing anything with my tv now — But the things I wanted to do were all going great for many months now!
So, last week the 2 speakers in my laptop went south. Tinny, rattling, sometimes no sound at all. I did a bit of investigating where and how I could have new speakers installed in the old laptop — but there’s the rub. It is way past time for me to buy a new Dell laptop. But this isn’t a handy time for me to be looking at either a new laptop or seeing if I can get new speakers in the old and apparently wearing-out laptop.
Today, I decided to look through all of the now-unused hardware upstairs in David’s office and his TV room, to see if I could watch anything on the network, requiring decent sound. I couldn’t get anything working at all. Well, the modem is up there and it probably supports some or all of the surrounding equipment, but I couldn’t get anything going on his computer or his big TV.
Gave up and came back downstairs to examine the old laptop and see if it had any connections I could use for better sound. I have a little zoom camera that I use occasionally but it doesn’t seem to help with bad or no sound. So while looking at all the connections around the edges of the laptop, I came upon a connector with a head phone image. I have a headset that I use with a portable radio when I’m working out in the yard. PROBLEM SOLVED for the time being. Maybe by summer I’ll have time to research what laptop would be good for me to switch to.

#74 – If you would get yourself a Roku or an Amazon Fire Stick you could watch all your computer programs on the big screen. With good TV sound. A lot cheaper than a new laptop, and much better on the eyes. Check it out. Or, you could just get yourself a small set of Bluetooth speakers which your computer would use in lieu of its on board speakers.
In other news, a police helicopter in Baton Rouge was tracking a vehicle. It somehow crashed into a cane field killing both the officers on board. No one noticed for 8 or 9 hours. https://unfilteredwithkiran.com/baton-rouge-police-helicopter-crash-west-baton-rouge-parish-erwinville/ No police dispatcher, no ATC, no nothing.

That Baton Rouge story is unbelievable. What the hell ?

Sounds as if they just took off in the chopper on their own and no one knew? Shift change and lack of communication?
