    Huge Cyber attack on X today !

    This has been happening since early this morning, and the website has been hit at least 4 times already, according to the reports I am reading. Elon Musk says that this is a very coordinated attack, and it has to be either a very large group or even a country that is attacking the X website...

    The Biden EO’s were signed by his auto pen , reportedly.

    Now, it is developing that when they looked back through the Executive orders signed by Biden, the only one they are finding that actually had his real signature on it was the one where he said that he was dropping out of the presidential race. So, the question is, if Biden didn’t sign the...

    Our toaster oven just died !

    About 2-3 years ago, we got a really nice Emerille air-fryer toaster oven. Our regular oven on the stove does not work, so the toaster oven is all that we use now when we bake something. Sometimes, we use the air fryer to make baked squash or baked potatoes, which are much more flavorful than...

    Do you like to garden ?

    I actually love gardening, and even after it was not feasible to be rototilling and planting a garden, we used planter pots and grew things like tomatoes and cucumbers, and simple foods like that. Last year, we mostly had tomatoes and butternut squash. We got a few cucumbers, but for some...

    Illegal immigrants can’t speak English.

    Here in the United States, we have a lot of people who came across our border and live here, but have not even tried to assimilate into the culture of this country . Most of these people are Hispanics that came here, supposedly as refugees from one of the Central American countries, but they do...

    Apple Event this month, new iPads coming out.

    I have been looking at videos from the YouTubers who talk about new Apple products, and it looks like new iPads are coming out later this month. The Apple Event is scheduled for March 12th, if I remember right, and I always like to watch, even if I am not buying anything. Right now, I...

    The connection between wildfires and SMART Cities

    it appears that the places where we have had the terrible wildfires that destroy all the buildings , are the same places where the city governments also wants to make the new 15-minute cities happen. This seems to be happening here in the United States, but that is where I mainly see the news...

    Home Made Ice Cream

    We now make our own ice cream with a Ninja Creami. It is something that I discovered that lot of low-carb people were doing to be able to enjoy an ice cream treat without all of the sugars and chemicals that go into commercial ice creams. I just love the Ninja Creami, and making ice cream is...

    Were Gene Hackman and his wife murdered ?

    At first, the investigators thought it was some sort of accidental death, maybe from a gas leak; but that turned out to be wrong once they investigated it. Since Hackman was in his 90’s, a natural death seemed possible, but it was strange that his wife and also one of their dogs was found dead...

    Daylight Savings Time starts next weekend ! Happy ? I am.

    Here in the United States, Daylight Savings Time starts on March 9th this year. There has been a lot of discussion about whether it should be made permanent or not. From what I have been reading, it seems like it is about equal of the people who want DST year around, and the people who want...

    Using a vibration plate to help circulation and lymph .

    This device was covered under my Medicare advantage plan, and after reading about it and watching some YouTube videos, I got one last month. There are a lot of different ones available at all sorts of prices, and the one I got is a Merach Vibration Plate. It is square instead of oblong, which...

    Should the United States stay in NATO ?

    This is something that has been discussed for some times now, and there are differing opinions. Especially after what happened yesterday with the Ukraine dictator at the White House, and President Trump not giving Z any further support until he is ready to have peace in his country, this is a...

    White House has cut off ALL aid to Zelenskyy after kicking him out of the Oval Office yesterday.

    All that Zelenskyy had to do was wear a tie, sign the papers and thank the American people for our help; but he refused to do any of this yesterday. President Trump had a nice meal prepared, and a special press conference to announce the signing of the agreement, and all of that had to be...

    Cryptozoology, Bigfoot, Lake Monsters, and Other Unusual Creatures

    One of my interests has long been the stories about creatures that have been reported by someone, but are pretty much considered not to exist. In this section, we can have threads about Bigfoot (and all the other names he is called around the world), as well as other creatures that remain...

    Low carb, Atkins, Keto, Carnivore WOE Discussion

    Many people now follow one of the above way of eating (WOE) plans, and this thread is to talk about which plan you follow, why you like it, and share things about each plan. Pretty much they are all low carb lifestyles, and the difference is which proteins you eat, and which carbs (if any) are...

    Zelenskyy is visiting at the White House today to try and make a deal.

    America has given this dictator over three billion dollars, which he has decided that he should not have to pay back, yet he continues to argue that he wants more help from the United States, both in money and Military forces and weapons. He seems to think it is all one way and he can bluster...
