The week that was

The Week That Was...

The farm is slowly coming back from the bleakness of winter, with a couple days in the 60's life was breathed back into a dead world, grass is greening, birds are coming back, the Robins are patrolling.

Moms Birthday party on Sunday, looking forward to seeing some folks!

Jarrod said gas is at $4.50 in town now, Diesel is at $5.25 a gallon.

It's what ya do... “If you’re alive and breathing, you shouldn’t need an excuse to help someone else. If they need help, help them.”

The Woodchucks came out today from their winter hibernation...

Appears it's back to the office for me, I just received a memo from Corporate HR, April 4th part time and then full time May 4th. It was great while it lasted saving 2 hours a day commuting to the office.

We use to have to pay good money to get into the circus freak show.... now it's free, almost required viewing, most places.

Now, On with the show...

QUOTE(s) of the Day!

“I do not say that democracy has been more pernicious on the whole, and in the long run, than monarchy or aristocracy. Democracy has never been and never can be so durable as aristocracy or monarchy; but while it lasts, it is more bloody than either. Remember, democracy never lasts long. It soon wastes, exhausts, and murders itself. There never was a democracy yet that did not commit suicide. It is in vain to say that democracy is less vain, less proud, less selfish, less ambitious, or less avaricious than aristocracy or monarchy. It is not true, in fact, and nowhere appears in history. Those passions are the same in all men, under all forms of simple government, and when unchecked, produce the same effects of fraud, violence, and cruelty.” – John Adams

“The Shepherd drives the wolf from the sheep’s throat, for which the sheep thanks the shepherd as a liberator, while the wolf denounces him for the same act as a destroyer of liberty. Plainly, the sheep and the wolf are not agreed upon a definition of liberty.” —Abraham Lincoln (1809-1865)

The 'Rona

“Don’t wear a mask!” “Wear a mask!” “Wear two masks!” Wear three masks!” “Cloth masks don’t work!” “Only N95s will protect you!”

“If you’re vaccinated you can’t get covid.” “Vaccines are 100% effective at stopping covid.” “Vaccines are 96% effective.”

“Vaccines are 70% effective.” “Vaccines no longer effective after six months.” “Boosters are our only way out of covid.” “It is a pandemic of the unvaccinated.” “You now need a fourth booster!”

“The Science,” as our readers know has been a shifting goal post since day one and has had almost nothing to do with actual science at all. When the pro-mandate psychopaths changed an arbitrary dictate, we are told that the virus has changed, not “The Science.”
