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 †

fishing ?
Who? The cat or the lead holder?
Notice the tail straight up in the air. That water looks cold.
That cat seems to have kind of a funny cut. There is a distinct line. Hair shorter from just behind the forelegs forward, and left longer behind.
Looks like a reverse lion cut. Usually see it the other way around = hair longer over shoulders to just behind the forelegs and cut short from there back. Some times clipping off the tail to the last third so it looks like the tip of a lions tail.
Ha!
Yes, that tail is akin to some of the old cartoons. Can ya hear the ((((((boing))))) & screeches??? 😬😂
Looks like a cat with a forehead bow, in a sheep blanket.
Good morning, Home💖
Almighty and most merciful Father; We have erred and strayed from thy ways like lost sheep. We have followed too much the devices and desires of our own hearts. We have offended against thy holy laws. We have left undone those things we ought to have done. And we have done those things which we ought not to have done; And there is no health in us.
But thou, O Lord, have mercy on us, miserable offenders. Spare thou those, O God, who confess their faults. Restore thou those who are penitent; According to thy promises unto mankind in Christ Jesus our Lord. And grant, O most merciful Father, for his sake; That we may hereafter live a godly, righteous, and sober life, To the glory of they holy name. Amen.🙏
Bless-ed good morning to each one in the branches.💖 May this day for all here bring grace and mercies, which only He can deliver. In big ways and small ways,and in ways which lift the spirit so that we know without doubt that God is and ever shall be🌷
Amen Betsy. Beautiful. Much needed. Grateful.
Thank you, God bless you. May you be filled with His Light, His Spirit.
Good morning, oldschool💖.
I needed it as well. This is the most powerful prayer I know, next to the Lord’s Prayer. And it has been on my mind lately so much. I was so glad for the devotion today because immediately I read it, I knew I must post mine. The feeling was overpowering. Thank you so much. And may His blessings rest with you as well.
It had the same impact on me and then your post, Divine gifts.
None better.
Thank you for this Bible Study. It is very accurate, we seem to have to get old to see the things we should have seen when we were young.
Good morning, Marti💖
It is a very very hard thing to do to review our Book of Life. I’ve always thought we live our lives back to front. If only there were such a thing as do overs. It makes our understanding of the sacrifice of Christ more poignant and powerful.
Good afternoon, Betsy
There are a lot of things I would do over if I could. Fortunately Jesus is the center of my life and helps me thru many difficulties.
I couldn’t have said it better marti. ☺️ Thank you
May all of our thoughts remain on our Lord ❤️
Thanks Cat…. me either Marti, was thinking the same thing early this morning when an old memory came to mind and I thought, had I known then, what I know now !! I feel closer to being a wise woman these days, but I was a foolish girl more times than I wish to count. I can only repent and ask for forgiveness. Greetings and Blessings to all in the Tree today (tree of life emoji)
Bore da, Cariad💖 That is one of the sweetest songs ever written. And please oh please, may He do so🙏
For me, foolish and self centred, and unable to see down the road. Of course now that I’ve reached the metaphorical end of the road agewise, and turn to see where I’ve been, I can see so clearly from a distance what I could not, (worse, would not or ignored) see when it was right in front of me…forgiveness, mercy then grace needed. 🙏
Good morning, Home, Betsy.
This is one of my favorite passages from the BCP. Thank you for posting it.
Blessings
Good morning, Lonestar. There never seemed to be the right time or place to do so. And I’ve been looking. As I was reading in my beloved Book the page fell open to it first thing. And then I read Home’s devotion. I put in in immediately. Thanks be to God.🙏
Good morning Betsy and amen! Great and needed prayer. Was out all day yesterday with the grands at Schlitterbahn New Braunfels.
Have another busy day today with errands in San Antonio. After the baking yesterday we are looking at 104 today but at least I’ll be mostly indoors. 😍
Mornin’ GrandpaM, Betsy.
Good thing you are young and can rabble rouse with the young’uns. 😀
it WAS a scorcher yesterday, wasn’t it! worked in my garden until noon. will get out earlier next time.
Looks like we have more scorchers ahead of us over the next 10 days.
Stay cool and drink plenty of water!
Blessings
Chasing the two 7 year olds down the Lazy River was a very good workout. Those little ones are fast. 😂
My gosh, G! If you weren’t fit before, you surely will be now!!😂
That’s what we do with our garden, except that we are done by 9:30. By noon you must have been pretty baked.
Good morning, G. When I didn’t see you yesterday, I figured, well, summer is here, and I bet he’s having the time of his life with his kiddos. And I was right😉
And yes, here it comes. The Texas heat…ugh. Just reading the start of Australia’s winter has been the coldest in 122 years. Thinking of shipping a goodly portion to them, if I could find a way.🤗
It was a birthday party for two of the 10 yo friends. TBTG, they had rented a cabana, so we could catch a break between chasing the kids. 😁💗
Thank goodness indeed. I forget year to year how oppressive and draining the heat can be. I was 10 once. Seems like yesterday.
Praise God, I actually had much easier time than I thought I would both last week at Sea World and yesterday. Truly, the joy of the Lord is my strength, and it was pure joy being with the kids.
And I finished my stuff in San Antonio today and am already home enjoying some rest.
Thank you for this reading. It is perfect
Good morning, Garrison💖.
Just perfection. Effortless.
I put my radio on to Sirius XM Symphony Hall this morning as I do every morning, and they are playing Boccherini’s 9th guitar quintet. Just the ticket to start any day…gentle, lovely, joyful.
This channel is tending more and more to play modern composers who seem not to know those words when composing, and therefore what they present as music to me is just unlistenable. Down goes the volume to zero until they are through. They should put you in charge of programming with your selection this morning.🤗
Hi, Betsy. And good morning to you too! 🙂 I think I first heard the Boccherini on a Segovia/Decca LP (which I still have . . . somewhere). As I recall it was a beautifully made analog recording. He was playing his famous Herman Hauser guitar. I agree that too many modern compositions are hard to listen to. A lot of “modern” music seems to be intentionally anti-music, in fact.
The worst for me is Philip Glass. They used to.say of Bruckner, a devoutly religious man, he wrote the same Symphony nine times. With that I cannot disagree. Glass is the same. Every single composition of his is exactly like the one before it…a dirge, boring, unpretty, nothing to stir the soul. There are others that the compares is f these programmes drool and wax lyrical over. Down the volume goes….anti-music is exactly the right term.
When I lived in the UK, I bought a superb CD of the Romeos playing all of the Boccherini guitar quintets. I used to listen them constantly. I bet your LP collection second to none.
Well my luck is in…and then it isn’t…
Just listened to Giuliani’s Variazioni Concertini, Julian Bream playing…delightful.
Followed by Philip Glass, now turned down.
Bream is another favorite. Philip Glass is one end of the paradigm. At the other end, thank goodness, is Thomas Newman.
Good dog!

June 8 Oswald Chambers
What’s Next To Do?
If you know these things, blessed are you if you do them. —John 13:17
Be determined to know more than others. If you yourself do not cut the lines that tie you to the dock, God will have to use a storm to sever them and to send you out to sea. Put everything in your life afloat upon God, going out to sea on the great swelling tide of His purpose, and your eyes will be opened. If you believe in Jesus, you are not to spend all your time in the calm waters just inside the harbor, full of joy, but always tied to the dock. You have to get out past the harbor into the great depths of God, and begin to know things for yourself— begin to have spiritual discernment.
When you know that you should do something and you do it, immediately you know more. Examine where you have become sluggish, where you began losing interest spiritually, and you will find that it goes back to a point where you did not do something you knew you should do. You did not do it because there seemed to be no immediate call to do it. But now you have no insight or discernment, and at a time of crisis you are spiritually distracted instead of spiritually self-controlled. It is a dangerous thing to refuse to continue learning and knowing more.
The counterfeit of obedience is a state of mind in which you create your own opportunities to sacrifice yourself, and your zeal and enthusiasm are mistaken for discernment. It is easier to sacrifice yourself than to fulfill your spiritual destiny, which is stated in Romans 12:1-2. It is much better to fulfill the purpose of God in your life by discerning His will than it is to perform great acts of self-sacrifice. “Behold, to obey is better than sacrifice…” (1 Samuel 15:22). Beware of paying attention or going back to what you once were, when God wants you to be something that you have never been. “If anyone wills to do His will, he shall know…” (John 7:17).
WISDOM FROM OSWALD CHAMBERS
We never enter into the Kingdom of God by having our head questions answered, but only by commitment.
Good morning, Cat💖 Head questions is a very good description. The whys and wheretherefores of our feeble earthly understanding, when the glorious answers, known only to God, will one day be only too clear.
I am keeping you in my prayers. You have company there with so many others . All blessings to you, my dear friend.🙏
Good morning everyone ❤️
Today’s Oswald particularly hit very close to home today for me. Since I’m a work in progress 😉
Hello again FC, you hit the nail on the head with this one for me as well. Knowing what should be done and doing it are too often, different things. Some days I feel like I’m hiding, safely as I can, from this crazy world and I wonder…. Bore Da Betsy! A tune for us today…
Well sniff! That was from a great Sam Peckinpaw movie, Parichute. Thanks. 🙂
Still dusting myself off with this one.
Might be walking normal by dinner.
Mornin’ FC. Have a great day.
Blessings 🙏 ❤️
Morning Cat! Blessings! ❤️

Good morning all.
My Granddaughter and Daughter arrived safely.
This morning I knew that things must have looked pretty bad for the democrats in the primaries without reading a single story on it. Just going through my MSN news feed and seeing there was not one single story about the Primaries in the headlines told me the overall story without any other source.
So my next click is to Breitbart and the top story is:
San Francisco Voters Recall Radical D.A. Chesa Boudin
Followed by:
*** ELECTION NIGHT LIVEWIRE *** 7 STATES VOTE, RED WAVE BREWS OFF BOTH COASTS
So glad, rah, they are safe. How happy you must be.
I haven’t looked yet to see results. But if it is being ignored, that’s one huge tell.
No matter there is no hope for California. The cheat is totally established there with permanent mail in voting and ballot harvesting legal. IMO the coming midterms will tell us if we have lost our Republic. If the left has established the cheat in enough swing states then I’m afraid the only way we will get it back is by waging a real and bloody civil war.
My feelings exactly. I don’t even think of California as a state anymore. And I am afraid you are right about the cheating in other states. This is why when I read “Red wave in November” I really do get a sick feeling in the pit of my stomach. The Dems are way too sanguine now when if all were on the up and up, wed sing seeing little beads of sweat appearing on their faces. But they just keep on with their obscene agendas. No…I’m like you. Who knows what will be the final straw, but there will be one. Mass hunger? Inability to drive because no one can afford gas? A compromised and godless Supreme Court full of their own egos which will attempt to strip us of our God given rights? I dread to imagine.
Mornin’ Rah. glad to hear your loved ones arrived safely.
Thanks for this observation.
Batten down the hatches, the storm is about to arrive.
Blessings
Yep! There is one heading toward my abode right now with 100% chance of rain in the forecast for today.
Its wrapping up here in the SW ‘burbs of Chicago….sun finally out!
👍🙏
Good morning everyone and happy hump day. Sunrise to sunset, hope your day abounds with joy and that night time brings you peace, comfort and rest. Blessings to all. Cheers!
Thanks very much, Levi!
Today some of our beloved family members are flying home to Milwaukee from a 10-day visit with family in England.
I am praying for a smooth journey and safe return.
Joy and peace will be here when they are home, safe and sound.
Good morning, aDoozy💖
How exciting for them! They’ll be fine. I’ve done that journey so many times, and it is a haul. One piece of advice given to me the first time I made it was when I arrived there in the early morning, try to stay awake until the evening to help get the jet lag under control.
I remember having tea at the famous Fortnum and Mason’s in the afternoon and desperately trying not to fall asleep in my teacup. It was a struggle.
Which airport are they flying in to? And as I am quite nosy (having lived there for a substantial part of my life) what part of the country is their family? Have they ever been before? So many impertinent questions… at least they’ll have missed the massive celebrations from last week. I hope they have the most wonderful time!
Fantastic aDoozy, Hope they are now home safe and sound, with lots of hugs and telling wonderful stories of their visit. Long day away from home for me, hence the delay in response, Cheers!
Mornin’ Levi!
Blessings
Good morning (or afternoon as it were) and thank you Lonestar, Hope you’ve had a great day. Blessings indeed!
Good morning Levi, and blessings!
Good morning, afternoon and evening Gramps. Thank you. Hope you’ve enjoyed another special day. Cheers!
Today I had to go for a bit to my old business. Everyone was happy to see me. Told them, “I miss y’all too, but I’m not coming back to work. LOL!
That’s a great feeling on both ends.
PLEASE PRAY FOR ONE ANOTHER
We here will always pray for others…always🙏
PRAYING ON THE ARMOR OF GOD
Father God, I now follow your command to put on the full armor of God, because my battle is not against flesh and blood but against rulers, authorities, the powers of this dark world and against spiritual forces of evil in the unseen world.
I first pray on the Belt of Truth that it may be buckled around my waist, may I be centered and encircled by your truth dear Lord. Hem me inside all that is true and right, and may I be protected and held up by the truth of your living word, in my Lord Jesus name.
I pray on the Breastplate of righteousness, please protect my vital organs and my inner man, cover my integrity, my spirit, and my soul. Guard my heart for it is the wellspring of life, please strengthen and guard the most vulnerable places in my life with that which is right, good, and noble that I might not receive a fatal blow from the enemy, in my Lord Jesus name.
I pray on the Gospel Shoes of Peace. I choose to stand in the shoes of your good news, and on the firm foundation of my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, the solid eternal rock. All other ground is sinking sand, I pray that I will not slip or fall, but that my feet would be firmly fitted on your lordship, my Lord Jesus. I choose to stand on you, so that the peace of God, which transcends all understanding will guard my heart and mind in Christ Jesus, the eternal Rock of Ages. I receive your holy peace now my Lord, from the sole of my feet to the crown of my head, in my Lord Jesus name.
I pray the Shield of Faith into my hand now. As I take up the shield of faith, I ask that you might extinguish every dart and arrow, that is launched from the enemy to take me down spiritually, physically, mentally, emotionally, and every attempt of the enemy to destroy my joy. I ask that my faith in you would make it flame out. Extinguish every flaming arrow that would come against me, my life, my family, my home, or my ministry. May my faith always be out in front of me like a shield. Give me the courage to “faith my fears” by choosing to walk by faith and not by sight, in my Lord Jesus name.
I pray on the Helmet of Salvation, that you might protect my mind from the thoughts that can lead me astray. I choose to take every thought captive, and arrest all intentioned ideas and motives that would harm others, or distract me from your holy will for me. I submit every captured thought to the Lordship of my Lord Jesus Christ, and ask that you would imprison those thoughts that are not of you my Lord. Transform my mind and renew my thinking that I may think God thoughts, and have a sober mind that is focused on your glory. Please protect me from being double minded that I may allow my mind, I reject to live an earthly life, because I choose to live a holy one, governed by you My Lord Jesus, the prince of peace, please have my mind to be saturated with the holy mind of Christ, in my Lord Jesus name.
Finally, I take up the Sword of the Spirit which is the holy word of God, I pray this powerful offensive weapon into my hand, and ask that your holy word would be fitting for every encounter I face. As the enemy gets close to me, please give me the insight, wisdom, and skill to wield the word of God to drive away the enemy, in my Lord Jesus name.
May the enemy and his team flee from me, upon hearing the word of God spoken by the power and direction of the Holy Spirit. Give me the sword of the spirit to cut through the wiles of the devil, so that I may discern the schemes of the enemy when he is near.
With all kinds of prayers, supplication, and intercession I pray to you my Lord God as the one who fights my battles. Now that I’m in your holy powerful armor, I walk away covered and ready to face my day as you go before me, and please protect me in the midst of the spiritual warfare in this unseen world, in my Lord Jesus name.
Thank you my Lord, for the spiritual weapons of armor and prayer that you have given me. It is written no weapon formed against me shall prosper, and you will refute every tongue that accuses me.
Thank you Father God, my Lord Jesus and the Holy Spirit, that I am more than a conqueror in my Lord Jesus. I pray all of this in the mighty name of my Lord God and Savior Jesus Christ.
AMEN.

✟
“For the LORD giveth wisdom: out of his mouth cometh knowledge and understanding.”
Proverbs 2:6 (KJV)
Thank You, Jesus, for blessings received and prayers answered!!!
Mornin’ comrade infidels.
Good morning, Flyover💖
How fitting is this sermon for today, where we can see the enemy clearly, as he is hiding no more. And we can see his troops, all of them…and they are godless, soulless, merciless, exactly what one would expect them to be for their foul overlord.
We are His foot soldiers. The banner we hold high and march under is that of the Highest. And though we may be a ragtag army, we are His army. And that gives us the biggest advantage of all. God go with us as we stand and fight for His everlasting glory. He will not fail us.🙏
“We are His foot soldiers.” – Indeed, however I like the term a friend of mine has coined – “I am now an Armageddon soldier of the last generation”
Oh I like that as well. So much power in that, Oldspeak.
I like that too. Armageddon Soldiers standing up for Jesus. We must put on the whole Armor of God and be ready for the battle.
Say it Loud

Good morning, ms Idaho 💖 I have to keep reminding myself you are a couple of hours behind me when I read this thread. God be with you all whom you love.🙏

The 50th Psalm (Septuagint)

Afterfeast of the Ascension
Saint Augustine of Canterbury, Evangelizer of the English (+ ca. 605)
May 26th – Patristic Calendar of the Orthodox Christian Church
June 8th – civil or commercial calendar
Mornin’ Sepp.
Curious that Augustine should get that name, because Christianity had been in the British Isles close to 600 years by the time he arrived.
Worship had been Orthodox until that time. Then it changed over to Roman when Gregory sent Augustine to Kent.
And the rest is history, as they say. Although it seems Orthodoxy is making a come back in the Isles these days.
Blessings
I hope you are right, Lonestar. As per my post yesterday, the Anglican Church has taken a shocking turn. Having said that, there is nothing more moving or uplifting than the Services at King’s College on Easter and Christmas, which we watch on Britbox. I never feel so close to God as when I watch those. I look forward to them as a child would waiting for Christmas morning.🙏
mornin’ Treepers
Glory to God for all things
Morning Lonestar and amen!
mornin’ GrandpaM.
Stay cool! drink lots of water.
Blessings
Lonestar…on the Daily Mail UK edition there are some great pics of Kate’s and William’s daughter Charlotte, 7, taking discipline matters into her own hands…for both her brothers. She gets it! As do they😉 Brilliant😂😂😂
Amen and always!
Amen!
Mornin’ Flyover!
Have a blessed day.
Blessings to those who are strong and vigilant. Extra positive prayers for those who are weary and need a spiritual boost. God bless you all!
mornin’ Lorrie. Amen.
Blessings
😇
Good morning, Lorrie💖 There are so many who need them now, and I know more in the offing. I believe we could, each one of us, use a spiritual boost these days. Blessings to you as well🙏
🌺🌼🌸
Well done angus!! You managed to lure feral out of her forest!!!! 🥰
Thank you and good Morning ☀️
Glad you enjoyed, those cats were hot!
Good morning, angus💖 Were those the days?? They most definitely were!
I played the clarinet, but never like that! LOVE a good clarinet tune.
P, I remember a story about Benny Goodman, a consummate clarinet player. I can’t remember exactly why he did it, but apparently he had the calluses on his fingers removed so he could “re-learn” his instrument. Perhaps you know the story as well? I thought he played at a level others could only aspire to. But there must have been something he was unhappy with. Obviously a perfectionist.
To God – from The Dog
Dear God: Why are there cars named after the jaguar, the cougar, the mustang, the colt, the stingray, and the rabbit, but not ONE named for a dog? How often do you see a cougar riding around?
We do love a nice ride! Would it be so hard to rename the “Chrysler Eagle” the” Chrysler Beagle”?
She Never Cried When Old Yeller Died
That’s awesome thinking ms Idaho 😂
Good Morning ❤️
nah – not from me. From emails saved years ago.
Good for chuckles
They did get a bus service named after them though.
ms idaho, if it was named after my old dogie that had his left knee worked on today it would have been Chrysler Booger. 🙂
Praying for you and Doc.
somehow I don’t think folks would buy a car named Booger
prayers reflected back at’cha
Here’s a complete list of cars named after animals:
https://www.zeroto60times.com/2013/03/complete-list-cars-animal-names/
but I didn’t see any dogs…
Nope. They’ve passed over the beloved canine.
To add insult to injury, an old colloquial expression to describe a poorly performing car or machine is “it’s a real dog.”
Rover can’t get any respect.
Natural Gas has tripled in price in my area.
I heat my home with NG and the way the price is going I’m thinking I should put an insert in my fireplace. I have a more than ample source of already cured hardwood for firewood and an insert would make a big difference in a 2,100 square foot house with the standard 8 foot ceilings. I have ceiling fans in every room in the house with the exception of the two bathrooms and those will help distribute the heat.
Sherry and I prefer sleeping in a room with a temp of 60 F or so and the house is well insulated though I still have three old windows that need replacing with the new double paned argon filled ones I already installed in the rest of the house. I have the 3 windows, just haven’t installed them yet.
Thankfully I live in a state that has yet to outlaw fire for heat or pleasure. A neighbor two doors down to the south has heated his home strictly with wood for the entire 21 years we have lived here.
Hi Rah (and a lovely nod to your Sherry), we added a fireplace insert a dozen years back and it has been a worthwhile addition to our heating needs. We too have a 2100 square foot house, two-floors of colonial style. The fireplace on the first floor is fueled by LP (100 gallon tank) and I made a tapestry curtain to hang in the stairway to our bedroom(s) where we keep the heat way down, like you, preferring a cool/cold room. We use little doorway corner fans to circulate the heat around the first floor. This technique (the heavy curtain on a spring rod) allows us to keep the cold from coming down or the heat from going up. So our evening time is cozy and warm and we can escape to a cool night’s sleep at bedtime. (sleeping emoji)
rah, A friend of ours got 3/4 tank of oil and it cost him $900. He only has oil for heat. We have oil back-up, but we heat with wood. We have 11 acres of woods and we cut the dead trees ourselves. My hubby has already started stacking wood for next year. (he is 82 years old) We have been working hard to be prepared for whatever comes.
Personally, a most wonderful post today flyover. ❤️ Thanks and good morning!
My thoughts when reading this may seem batty to some but here goes….Lord use me as your instrument!!! I am feral, hear me roar!!!!
Something I’ve prayed for for myself, Cat. While I do pray forgiveness, and otherwise pray for others, I have asked Him for this.
Your and my lines of commmunication must somehow be open😘
FC, if your roar is anything like what my cats sound when they gang up on the dogs, that is scary. 🙂
Giggle 🤭 are yours tone deaf too?
Hi grandpa ❤️
Good morning everybody 🙋♀️
I’m just going leave this as I start my day,albeit late:
Life gets very quiet before all the doors open. I’m learning that what can feel like loneliness is actually grace. Rest. Find your strength. It will all change soon. ❤️
Astounding ignorance:
Comment and my reply at
Open Thread – Watts Up With That?
Comment:
I don’t understand the beliefs and viewpoints held here.
If global warming isn’t real, the only harm that will be done is that some people have PTSD.
If global warming is real, as according to the world’s top scientists using the most state-of-the-art equipment in universities across the globe, everyone will die horribly.
Why would someone want everyone they know and love to die horribly? Even the worst dictators wanted to protect their own loved ones. How can people be so casual about mass death?
My Reply:
“Only harm done”? What planet are you living on? Our NG prices here have tripled! Gasoline is at the highest price in history and still rising! My electric bill had doubled and they are warning of possible rolling black outs when temps get real hot because of lack of capacity and supply chain problems leading to longer maintenance periods because they can’t get the parts. Something that has never ever happened here in central Indiana in a state that used to export power from our coal fired stations!
Grocery stores have shortages never seen here before in my 67 year life time. Independent owner operators are parking or selling their trucks and going to work for larger companies because they can’t make any income due to high fuel prices and that is only going to get worse.
The money spent subsidizing bird choppers and solar panels and trying to mitigate the emissions of a gas that is absolutely necessary for life could have been spent solving the many other problems we have and addressing real environmental problems.
Your ignorance is astounding. You’ve got to be a student that is insulated from the reality of the real world around you!
rah – see the Peanuts post above by John
‘splains it all
if they really want to eliminate fossil fuels, do they know what that means? do they know how expensive horses are? do they realize horses walk 4 mph? so you get up an hour early to harness the horses. when you get to work there has to be a livery stable with guys to unharness the horses, water, feed and groom them. and what about horse manure on the streets? who are these dumb folks?
Cheap energy is the foundation of civilization as we know it. It is the basis of the prosperity we have enjoyed. Denying it will greatly increase dependency and dependency is an absolute prerequisite for control. And that is their objective.
Rah, did you see Sundance’s thread last night with the short video of the Russian convenience store and how well stocked it was with everything you can imagine, and the reasonable prices. We are quickly becoming what the Soviet Union used to be.
Rotted malignant people in charge here love it like that. As long as they have their unaffordable (for most…and I wouldn’t have one if it were given to me free of charge) EVs and can drive right past the misery without looking, they’re good (looking at you, Stabenow, you slimey reincarnation of Marie Antoinette).
Yes betsy, agree, and that skank , stabhernow, is in my state.

For those interested on LewRockwell.com
His Excellency Archbishop Vigano has penned a very forthright piece.
POPE FRANCIS HAS CHOSEN HIS NEW CARDINALS FOR THEIR CORRUPTIBILITY
The headline is one the site, as Vigano refuses to bestow the title of Pope on Bergoglia. Within the article, he refers to “Bergoglian church.” (small c)
Lew links to the article on LifesiteNews. Vigano is a very brave man and a soldier of God, whom he serves with faithful reverence and truth.🙏
This is a harsh article. But it is righteous as only Vigano can write. One suspects, as I do, that God speaks through him.
Edit: Bergoglio. Forgive the misspelling
Harsh but true. Archbishop Vigano spares no criticism in his observations.
While reading that article on Lifesite, two other headlines were linked:
“Pope announces pro-LGBT Brazilian bishop will be elevated to cardinal”
“Pope Francis announces new cardinals, including bishop who backed Communion for pro-abortion politicians”
This pope has dropped any pretense of being faithful to the Word.
Amen!!
