SNOW!

Last Wednesday morning we got another 8 inches of snow it was 16 degrees

It was 11 degrees when I went to bed Wednesday evening. Wow, brr it's 6 degrees Thursday morning when I got up, it was up to 8 degrees by 8AM we leave the kitchen cabinets open overnight. This old farmhouse isn't insulated well, we've lost potatoes and onions in one cabinet before.

Our Huntsville Alabama plant is closed for the entire week due to some Snow and Ice down there on Monday, they don't have the equipment to deal with the weather aftermath.

Need to drop a car off Thursday morning at the auto shop for inspection, January is always crazy for us. We always hope the cars don't need too much work done to pass the inspection. Fingers crossed...

The real angry bird

James is finished school early for the year! He's all done on Friday this week, he'll go back for graduation but he's all done.

We were up at 4AM, and me at 4:30AM, I heard Winston barking, Rose heard him start whining, "I gotta go" starting at 4AM she let him out of his crate put on his radio fence collar and let the two dogs out.

8 degrees again Saturday morning.

On fixing stuff.. Work on it until it’s fixed, or so broken you have to replace it.

Dogs were ready to go out at 4:15AM on Sunday morning

We had 6 or so bluebirds checking out the birdhouses this morning

We're feeding 4 cans of feed to the deer now at least 5 are coming in nightly in this cold.

I Remember...

Blizzard of ’78 – February 5-7, 1978

7 Degrees Monday AM

Both our cars passed state inspection without needing any work! YAY US!

We know we have a ghost upstairs, she walks around in the upstairs spare bedroom especially around Christmas, we'll hear her in the living room in the evenings. Some of our dogs have been less than impressed from the craking floors. We think may have a poltergeist (or an earthquake) we came home from a Pepperell visit to Rose's brother to find a broken teapot lid that apparently fell from a 7' high shelf onto the floor. Very odd the teapots are very secure on the shelves. I was able to glue the teapot lid back together.

It's my birthday today!

It's January 23rd, we're off to Vote tonight.

The US Election process is BROKEN. Nearly two-thirds of all controls needed to ensure accurate and secure elections are missing!

In the corporate world all controls related to the financial reporting process are inventoried and tested annually. For multi-national companies this can mean over 1,000 controls are tested each year. Testing is performed by internal and external auditors all year long. If a control is not in place, not working, or designed poorly, the control issues are addressed and the control is retested at year-end. ALL KEY CONTROLS must be in place and working properly before the external auditor will sign off on a company’s financials reported to the public.

In contrast, in the US election process, only one-third of all controls are in place. The US election process is a disaster.

We have 289 more days of listening to this election bullshit. There has to be sanity out there somewhere... Rose is getting 10+ election spam calls per day now...

Once upon a time, America’s cities were beautiful, clean and the envy of the entire world. But now the rest of the world is literally laughing at how badly they have degenerated. A stunning nationwide crime wave has combined with the greatest homelessness crisis in modern U.S. history, the greatest drug crisis in modern U.S. history, and the greatest migration crisis in modern U.S. history to produce absolutely deplorable conditions in the streets of our largest cities. For example, if you find a plastic cup on the ground in New York City, you may want to carefully examine what is inside before you decide to pick it up.

Michelle Obama To Replace Joe Biden? - Recent Activity Raises Questions

Does Anyone Believe This? Biden Admits Open Borders Aren’t Safe For Americans And Claims He Will Take Action

President Biden told reporters Friday that the US-Mexico border is not secure — contradicting Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas — after endorsing “massive changes” in immigration policy.

“No, it’s not,” Biden said when asked whether the frontier was secure following remarks to a bipartisan group of mayors in the White House East Room.

During his speech, the 81-year-old Biden said he hoped for Senate negotiators to announce a compromise next week on border policy as part of a broader $106 billion supplemental spending request that would also finance military aid for Ukraine, Israel, and Taiwan.

“I believe we need significant policy changes at the border, including changes in our asylum system to ensure that we have the authorities we need to control the border. I’m ready to act,” the president said.

World Economic Forum founder and chairman Klaus Schwab showed his true Nazi colors today at Davos, saying that nations will soon no longer need to bother holding “elections” because voters could easily be replaced by artificial intelligence.

When President Biden assumed office, he stopped border wall construction, paused deportations, and basically opened our southern border to anyone from anywhere in the world regardless of their background, health status, financial resources, criminality, and intentions toward America.

We are adding a migrant population to America the size of Los Angeles each and every year, most of whom do not speak English, are illiterate, unemployable, and dependent on the government and thereby taxpayers for food, shelter, education, travel, health care, and clothing.

It has become obvious that this is an invasion.

Even Elon Musk accurately noted, “At this point there is no question that this administration is actively facilitating illegal immigration.”

Trump is certainly speaking out. “Now we have wars in Ukraine, Israel, and Yemen, but no ‘war’ on our Southern Border. Oh, that makes a lot of sense. Crooked Joe Biden is the worst President in the history of the United States!”

America’s open-borders are INTENTIONAL.

They are not a failure; they are a resounding success … because the goal of the Left is to transform America into a socialist-based-on woke state.

The estimates that I have seen are 10 million new illegals since the Biden-Regime took over. Do you really believe that these people want to assimilate? The Biden-Regime is creating new countries within this country. And the vast majority of the residents of these new countries (and their children after them) will vote Democrat and give the Left permanent control of government.

It’s only a crisis for people who love the country. For people who want to burn down the country, the border is not in crisis. It’s a tremendous success.

Illegal migrants working under the table are undercutting the wages and job prospects for many lower income and middle class Americans.

Trump got three big things right — or at least more right than wrong.

Arguably the single most important geopolitical fact of the century is the mass migration of people from south to north and east to west, causing tectonic demographic, cultural, economic, and ultimately political shifts. Trump understood this from the start of his presidential candidacy in 2015, the same year Europe was overwhelmed by a largely uncontrolled migration from the Middle East and Africa. As he said: “A nation without borders is not a nation at all. We must have a wall. The rule of law matters!”

Under President Trump, there were no wars, a strong military, drill-baby-drill and energy independence, he brought back jobs to America from China, built the first safe modular nuclear reactors, built 450 miles of border wall, and saw the illegal invasion slowed to a trickle. Additionally, he oversaw federal tax reform, near-historic low unemployment across all ethnic groups, economic growth of $6,000 per the average family, prison reform, the Middle East Abraham Peace Accords, COVID vaccines research under “Operation Warp Speed,” reduced CO2 by 2.9%, withdrew from the Paris climate accords, vetoed giving billions to Iran, and destroyed ISIS.

Trump’s most important accomplishment: three Supreme Court justices appointed (Neil Gorsuch, Brett Kavanaugh, and Amy Coney Barrett) — judges who believe in judicial restraint and a strict interpretation of the Constitution.

Donald Trump Vowed to never allow the central bank to convert from hard currency to digital currencies if elected, because such a currency would give our federal government absolute control over your money.

The United States Has The Biggest Government In The History Of The World By A Very Wide Margin

How does it feel to have the largest government that the planet has ever seen? When I was growing up, I was taught that we had a capitalist system and that we had a limited federal government. Of course neither of those things has been true for a very long time. Today, the United States has the biggest government in the history of the world, and it gets even bigger with each passing year. Running that gigantic government requires more money than we actually have, and so we are going into staggering amounts of debt. But there is no way that our politicians will ever agree to reduce the size of the federal government to an appropriate size. So we are stuck with this system until the day when it finally collapses.

Let me give you some numbers that illustrate what I am talking about.

-Approximately 3 million people work directly for the federal government.

-The federal government spent 6.13 trillion dollars in 2023. That figure is larger than the GDP of every nation on the entire planet except for the U.S. and China.

-More than 70 million Americans are on Social Security.

-More than 65 million Americans are on Medicare.

-More than 81 million Americans are on Medicaid.

-More than 41 million Americans are on food stamps.

Of course there are many more programs that hand out money to the population on a regular basis.

We have reached a stage where most U.S. households are at least partially dependent on the federal government.

We very much prefer not to call ourselves “socialists”, but that is precisely what we are. Sadly, if we attempted to go back to the way things were 100 years ago, most Americans would not know how to survive.

The massively bloated federal government that so many of us depend upon constantly consumes enormous mountains of money.

Elections Will Soon Be a Quaint Relic of the Past, Says Globalist Klaus Schwab

Just say no.

Some things are simpler than they appear. During the past few years, countless words have been spilled that ask and try to answer the seemingly complex question: What in the hell is wrong with these people? How do we get Russiagate, COVID hysteria, killer vaccines, vaccine mandates, George Floyd riots, rigged elections, the January 6 travesty, Biden, the botched Afghanistan withdrawal, open borders, runaway debt, suffocating regulations and taxes, elite pedophilia, war in Ukraine, war in the Middle East, Trump’s show trials, woke, DEI, and a plagiarist puff-ball promoted to president of a once prestigious Ivy League institution?

John Fetterman Says Border Crisis Threatening the American Dream

BREAKING: DeSantis Suspends 2024 Campaign, Endorses Donald Trump in Video Message

“The Democrat-led J6 Select Committee obviously took great strides to shield certain information from us,” Rep. Greg Murphy (R-NC), another subcommittee member, told The Post. “The question is: why? What are they trying to hide? Their whole plan was to ‘get to the truth of the matter’. They obviously didn’t want the real truth, just ‘their’ truth.”

The panel’s chairman, Rep. Barry Loudermilk (R-Ga.), has since written to former House Jan. 6 Committee Chairman Bennie Thompson (D-Miss.) requesting passwords to access the data, according to a copy of the letter obtained by the Post.

Thompson “claimed” to have “turned over 4-terabytes of digital files, but the hard drives archived by the Select Committee with the Clerk of the House contain less than 3- terabytes of data,” Loudermilk wrote.

He told Thompson that his subcommittee found “numerous digital records from hard drives archived by the Select Committee” and asked for “a list of passwords” to “access these files and ensure they are properly archived.”
