    Afghan attacker shoots two National Guard in DC.

    These scummers seem to be in every nook and cranny these days, but there is no way I'd ever take 3 little kids along to visit D.C. as I did back in the 1980s. I'd love to see a project to relocate the nation's capital FAR inland, even if it took decades to complete. I have no illusions that it...

    Overnight Somalis in Minnesota may get deported

    There was clearly an agenda behind this stuff. None of it looks organic, like immigration patterns of the past. It has been nothing but destructive. These weird groups are brought in and immediately start turning everything to crap. Sometimes the first wave of newcomers would integrate, but...

    Huge waves happening on all of the Great Lakes !

    Yes, there have been high straight-line winds across the region for hours and gusting to 60 MPH quite regularly. So much wind and so constantly above 30 MPH that Lake Effect snow accumulation was "skipping" inland leaving coastal land almost bare this time. So "the big slosh" of lake water was...

    What video are you watching on YouTube?

    Imagine the energy it takes to have fingers in so many pies?

    Trump The Cyrus of The Age?

    Part of it may be that our minds seek patterns among our observations. Modeling the world is a big part of how we select among actions. We mentally seek "best fit" between observations and our personal and cultural experiences or memories. I can't discredit prophecy as reality completely. But I...

    Mmm... mmm... No good.

    Classic tradeoff between convenience ad quality I suppose. So you pick your poison, eyes open as wide as practical. I'm sure making a good cream of mushroom soup is reasonable, given the fresh, frozen, or dried ingredients are on-hand. But the cost, time, effort, and cleanup seems like as much...

    Mmm... mmm... No good.

    Hilarious podcast on a horrific situation. CAUTION: This couple uses colorful language. Campbells Soup VP: We Make SH*T for F*cking POOR PEOPLE! Commenting on a Michigan story about the New Jersey "food" corporation. 3D-printed chicken???

    Cold Weather, Hot Drinks

    I've decided that may my "spinach-tomato soup" drink might need caution. Spinach contains a lot of oxylate, and who needs kidney stones? I'm thinking about looking for something like a freeze=dried kale powder to alternate with. These powders are nice because they're so shelf-stable when you...

    What's your Weather like today

    This incoming storm is looking more and more toothy. Up north, winds may gust to 60 MPH and in places 40 inches of snow could fall. Really looking like snowmobile-travel weather ahead along the Lake Michigan coast and of course much of the Upper Peninsula. And now a second system seems to be...

    What's your Weather like today

    Not miserably cold here yet, but sunny days are probably gone for a while at least. At least I got my "leaf harvesting" done and took care of most pre-winter chores outside. Started out around 45F, drizzley and slowly dropping temperatures. More tomorrow until it turns to snow and by all...

    Piers Morgan thanks New York for electing Mamdani

    I'm more worried about the number of people who think those ideas are good.

    Piers Morgan thanks New York for electing Mamdani

    This is how he took NYC: It is spreading and will only get worse. Too many Disney Princesses out there, now fallen on hard times.

    Last thing you bought

    Probably like most people, I've been staying hunkered down when it comes to purchases. Something that I bought last year is a small quartz radiant heater I can run as low as 300 watts. This is helpful in the really cold months with a back room that I need to keep above freezing. I can run it at...

    What's your Weather like today

    Days are getting short here, but nothing like up there. Warm spell actually, we're almost nudging 50F today with consistent though cloud-filtered low Sun. Grabbing a little solar power though, but that'll quickly end now as the Sun falls lower and lower over the next hour. Yesterday I filled a...

    Video from Democrat Congress members actually WAS illegal

    I'm pretty sure the Administration has been trying to address health care by controlling costs. Things like reining in Big Pharma charging US residents high prices in order to subsidize other markets, tackling illicit drug usage, etc. But I think this particular "wuddabout" is referring to...

    Video from Democrat Congress members actually WAS illegal

    It sounds like the goal is to hamstring local and State police, Federal law enforcement, and the military so that there is nobody able to oppose and contain mass insurrection and looting. I hope not. The alternative would be volunteer private militias to keep order. There is far too much to go...

    Video from Democrat Congress members actually WAS illegal

    What's frustrating is the lack of any way to safely indicate your displeasure to these Deep State Operatives holding office. I'm not sure even the most carefully crafted email checked over by a lawyer for your safety would fall on anything but deaf ears. Even confrontation in person through...

    Watched this recently, and it seemed to fit here. I hope you find it interesting.

    The U.S. considering asylum to the UK "Thought Criminals"

    Surely that will boil over before long? I know even giant protests fell on deaf ears this year. It must be getting pretty frustrating though to be treated as powerless minions, basically serfs.

    Last thing you've done when offline?

    Cold so I had a hard time getting motivated this morning. Sunny though, so I got out and farted around a little. Got a couple hundred pounds of ground leaves to the curb for pickup tomorrow, got the mail. Finally finished hanging a refurbished string of solar-powered warm whites under the back...
