Our Father, who art in heaven, hallowed be thy Name. Thy kingdom come. THY WILL BE DONE, on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread. And forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us. And lead us not into temptation, but DELIVER US FROM EVIL.
For Thine is the kingdom and the power and the glory, forever and ever. Amen †

The Great Air Ships.
Feb 12th, 1935 – The USS Macon, the last U.S. Navy dirigible, crashed on its 55th flight off the coast of California, killing two people. After takeoff from Point Sur, California, a gust of wind tore off the ship’s upper fin, deflating its gas cells and causing the ship to fall into the sea. Two of Macon ‘s 83 crewmen died in the accident. The U.S. Navy lost the airships Shenandoah in 1925 and Akron in 1933. Some considered airships too dangerous for the program to continue at that point, and work on them in the United States halted temporarily. The German zeppelin Hindenburg crashed and burned in 1936.
Before fixed wing aircraft had the range and lifting capacity to carry significant loads long distances the Air Ship or “dirigible” was thought to be the answer. These ships were generally huge and unlike a blimp which is for the most part a bag full of lighter than air gas, a dirigible had a rigid structure that held the bags of gas in place.
The Germans developed their Zeppelins for war to bomb Great Britain during WW I. Though these great bomb carrying ships which attacked at night caused the diversion of some assets for home defense their impact on the war was minimal.
With the coming of peace the commercial potential for dirigibles could be explored. Cruising across the Atlantic in one of the great Zepplins was limited to well to do passengers since the fare was about the equivalent of taking a first class berth in a good passenger ship. But when the weather was good it was a unique and luxurious experience and tickets for the flights were hard to get. Here are diagrams and pics of the passenger accomadations of the ‘Hindenburg’. https://www.airships.net/hindenburg/interiors
Though a flight in one of the great airships of the 20’s and 30’s was a unique experience it was also dangerous. The US had the corner on the Helium market and refused to let Germany have it to use in their Zeppelins. So the Germans used the highly explosive hydrogen to lift their huge ships and thus you have this famous clip: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YDU2MWJwJDc
The other problem was weather. The great ships just could not stand up to a significant Thunderstorm. And so commercial passenger Derigables for international travel faded into history as would the last of the military models.
Still, during WW II Goodyear produced 104 blimps for the US Navy to use for antisubmarine patrols off the coast of the US. The blimps were very effective at this task because they could loiter for hours on end.
The difference between a dirigible and a blimp is that a dirigible has a rigid frame where a blimp is made up of bags of gas.
We were watching an old 1930s movie a few weeks ago and there was a scene where everyone rushed to the windows when someone yelled, “It’s the MACON!” We paused the movie and went searching….would have NEVER known about it had we not watched that old movie….
(movie was “Nifty Nurses” from 1934)
any one know what’s happening with Citizen Free Press….they are still shut down
Citizen Free Press is in the process of migrating to a new server and host. You should be able to get on the site now, but all you’ll see is headlines from two days ago. The top headline is information about the migration of the site. Here’s a key phrase from the information that was posted:
“Thank you for your patience during this process. I am reasonably sure the site will stay up and live during the migration, however one never knows, so be prepared for the site to be down while the new DNS is propagated.”
In other words, the site may be down while things settle out. I guess people are wetting their pants about it because of all the other stuff that’s going on out there. By the way, people can now comment in the migration thread. When it comes to tech, stuff happens.
Their daily thread comment page is working, but the stories have yet to update. There is some interesting new rumors circulating there about hammer and scorecard of all things.

Apparently this was a system mirroring the 702 system, and Comey sold it to the Chinese. There as talk of a meeting at the White House on this topic?

Fair enough. I only read the site, I’m not a commenter. But seriously, how difficult is it to read the information posted on the migration of the site and then sit tight? I mean, it’s staring the readers right in the puss at the top of the page and then you go to the comments and there’s all this bed-wetting going on. Sheesh.

We have lost G-d’s protection just as Germany did…
Why don’t you write out God?
Because someone might copy, paste and blaspheme. This way they are not since the name is not displayed.
Uhhhh….no. Please get your head and spirit together for the fight of our lives. God will never abandon us and we will never abandon God.
The backlash to the overlords is coming.
I happen to be a big fan of the Holy Spirit. Took me a long time to understand, but the HS is very effective way to stay in touch with God and his Son Jesus
I see a lot of prayer going on and the faith is palpably good.
That being said, faith and prayer without works?
Is dead.
True, but some are called to intercede (serve) on their knees imploring heaven to intervene in our behalf. You do not know who these are as they pray in secret according to scripture…
DEREK, You have been freaking out all day on the Presidential thread as well. Get a grip.
See above comment about Holy Spirit. This is how we do God’s work
I love how 75,000,000 reduces down to 3. Father, Son, and Holy Ghost.
God’s Angels are here, and more are coming…
John 18:35-37
35 Pilate answered, Am I a Jew? Thine own nation and the chief priests have delivered thee unto me: what hast thou done?
36 Jesus answered, My kingdom is not of this world: if my kingdom were of this world, then would my servants fight, that I should not be delivered to the Jews: but now is my kingdom not from hence.
37 Pilate therefore said unto him, Art thou a king then? Jesus answered, Thou sayest that I am a king. To this end was I born, and for this cause came I into the world, that I should bear witness unto the truth. Every one that is of the truth heareth my voice.
Oh, my God,
I am heartily sorry for
having offended Thee,
and I detest all my sins,
because I dread the loss of heaven,
and the pains of hell;
but most of all because
they offend Thee, my God,
Who are all good and
deserving of all my love.
I firmly resolve,
with the help of Thy grace,
to confess my sins,
to do penance,
and to amend my life.
Amen.
My kitties told me I had forgotten to put up a Caterdy post. Sorry, Treeprs. Guess I’m gettin’ old. . .

Ad Rem. Something odd is happening with the formatting. I posted earlier and the images were visible. Now they arent’t. I note when this has happened the text posting window has shrunk down to about 1/3 it’s normal size. When that happens images that were visible are no longer visible. Odd. Just now when I refreshed the page (3 tries) suddenly the images appeared. Just thought you’d want to know.
FWIW [hint; everything]
The election fraud is blatantly overt , masked by age old military tactics of ‘perception management’.
No worries. It’s ALL been “UNMASKED”. Thank you Lord.
Thankfully God, in His omnipotent prescience, made me fully aware of these type of tactics and the subversive capabilities of the CIA ‘spooks’ when I was 12 [’73], right before my Dad retired from the Air Force out of Langley. A kid can pick up a lot [and be told that I ‘DID NOT’ hear what I just heard] when you’re hanging with the GI’s from Dad’s softball team, sponsored by the ‘Tide Mill Barber Shop’. Especially around the celebratory ‘keg’ after they won the ‘C’ League Championship.
‘Vengeance is mine; I will repay, says the Lord’
Trust God. Fear not.

The only people who should be complaining about a $900B spending bill are the idiots who bought the debt. Guess they never heard of FIFO/LILO. The interest payment for last fiscal year’s debt [approx $23T] was $522.7B. The risk of default is astronomical.
Remember People, Full Faith and Credit requires the consent of the governed in order to be worth the, you know, the thing it’s written on.
Some perspective for the narrow minded to ponder;
Overnight [in a New York minute], a new bank with a new name appears. The bank can offer interest bearing accounts of 5% or even 10% for anyone and guarantee those rates through unlimited profits from the production [local] and sales of proprietary merchandise [globally]. The new bank becomes the largest entity in the world, overnight.
Game over.
God always holds the ‘Trump’ card.
Trust God. Fear not.
I don’t know how much longer it will be up.

Who in the WH is blocking this info from the President?
Dennis Montgomery is under a state’s secrets gag order.
That should not prevent Montgomery from speaking to the President. The President has clearance to see everything. That has to be a BS excuse. It’s something else. Sounds more like someone close to the President is trying to prevent the President from getting the hard evidence.
Just say’n… 😉

Well, look what has the Twit-tards all upset. The Arizona Republicans are censuring Cindy McCain for criticizing Trump and supporting Leftwing causes.
LOL… so they’re standing up.
This is how bad bribed 8 mansion McCain was. We not only got an eye witness to his corruption 5 days ago (just ask if you want me to repost that0, AND Twitter Leftists are now his corrupt family’s biggest fans.

Believe nothing you are seeing. All of it is fake. If you look closely, you will see it, but when you do see it you ignore it, sometimes because it is being presented as “live.” Some see it and have been posting about it, and they haven’t been taken down yet, but you will have to go dig them out yourself. In the meantime, oh look, a new video message from the President.
Its Max Headroom. Appropriate
OH, NO, that sux! Amazon sez “Parler, yer outta here!” By next Sunday. That’s one week. If I seem flippant about it, it’s because I’m not a fan, given some of the people involved and their ridiculous info harvesting (and sharing, I’m sure).

Don’t see lilbirdee’s 9p prayer. But praying for our nation, our President and his family;

and all Patriots and freedom loving people around the world.
Amen.
