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 †

Morning Ya’ll 🙂
Good Monday morning, Mr jay. A lovely selection to greet a new week. Hope yours is a good one🤗
Maidin Mhaith Betsy
May your week be filled with Blessings. This is my favorite time of the year with all the colors on the trees and shrubs 🇺🇸🙏🏻🇺🇸
We’re still waiting here in Texas. We have one oak tree which always looks so beautiful once the colours turn. Normally it is rocking with acorns. This year? Not a single one. Most curious.
I see a lot of pictures posted from areas where the colours seem to be more vibrant this year than I remember them. I keep a couple on my phone to give me a lift. I adore the autumn.😊
Good and glorious day, Betsy❣️

It is, Patience💖 because I get to say good morning to you and Ma twice!!! What could be better!🤗
Awwwwe …. shucks 😍
😉💕 say it twice, twice as nice.
Morning jay!

Hi’ya, Jay! 🙂
🇺🇸😎🇺🇸
Great selections…
Top o’ the afternoon, Jay.
Howdy GB, smoke still creeping in out here guess Gay Inslee got good air at the governor’s mansion 😶🌫️
Show time with Neil Sedaka.
Mornin’ Jay . . . 🙂

This makes me remember this parody, this needs to be done to Alphabet Inc. among others nowadays.
A replacement would work tho like the cell phone splintered service companies even tho they have consolidated into about 4 now.
Catchy! I remember when Bell was still in charge and your landline cost $5.00 a month. But government made it better.
… and monopoly was a game. 😉
-robber barons live on
I remember phone books where you could actually find what you needed!
I do a lot of looking up re family tree and one great source is the old phone books – well, actually I guess you would call them directories because the earlier ones were before telephone numbers. You can find your great-great grandfather who was a stone mason (said so right there in the directory).
We had what mom called a “nose book”.
It was a phone directory plus+ in our small town, had your name, address, phone number, and everyone in the household ….kids names and ages and such.
I’m guessing you had to buy it / subscribe to it & give up all the information.
Definitely for the inquiring busybody people in town.
Made it much easier for that “you kids get off my lawn” neighbor to call your mom if they knew / heard your name & approximately where you lived.
One more . . .
Good morning, Garrison. What a lovely selection to start the week. A guitar with orchestra always brings an extra something to pieces of well known music. And I’ve always thought the Beatles’ music in particular lends itself to these sorts of performances. Very nice indeed…Blessings as always, my friend😘
Good morning Bet! Another Saturday 😁! Yesterday our youngest son, Nipper’s dad, and his new girlfriend decided to join us for church. That’s a praise for an answered prayer, he hasn’t been in church for years. They said they would like to come back next Sunday. That may present a problem if we have Nipper since he doesn’t know that daddy has a new girlfriend and his mom, and my bride and I would like to keep it that way. We are just praying about it right now. What seems to us to be a huge problem is a no brainer for God.
Blessed be His Holy Name!❤️😘
Wow! Oh boy…there may be no way to avoid it, G. I completely understand why you and your beloved bride would want to protect Nipper. I get it. Outside of not taking him to church which you’d never do.
The only thing that you can do is pray for the right words to use with him when the unavoidable becomes a reality. And the Holy Spirit will give you those words. It’s just an unwelcome path you’ll have to feel your way through. But know this also…I know from experience that kids are more resilient than you may think. I am so glad for Nipper he has you as such an active part of his life to act as a wise buffer and shield. Where you need that strength to deal with this for him, I’m certain it will be provided for you.
The final thing I’ll say is this…
As it seems from your postings the split seems permanent, and as sorrowful as that is for the reasons you have outlined, Nipper needs a functioning dad. His dad’s return to church may be a bless-ed indication that out of this unwelcome event in all your lives, there will be that mercy incoming. I know it is early days and one swallow does not a summer make. I will add my prayers to yours and your bride’s that Almighty God will make clear the way through this all…with great affection, my brother in Christ.🙏…and an extra anonymous tight hug to Nipper from his anonymous “Auntie Bet”😘
Morning, Bet. Martin Madrigal is a Mexican virtuoso. The Camerata is apparently a group of central European ex-pats who set up shop in northern Mexico. They’re quite good.
I’ll say they are!! I really enjoyed them. Your knowledge of these fine guitarists is truly wonderful. How they ended up in Mexico is quite the story I reckon. Wish we knew…
Hearing this version of Eleanor Rigby reminded me of another instrumental verson of the song.. On an instrument called a Chapman Stick
Hello my man, Garrison💖

Good morning Garrison!
Afternoon, Garrison!
Interesting find but great music to work by. I had some editing work and these are great background pieces because of the familiar tunes.. yet the arrangements are quite unique and artfully performed …
American Thinker, October 9, 2022
If you were paying attention, Kanye’s antisemitism is predictableBy Andrea Widburg
Over the weekend, Kanye West went full antisemitic. I was not at all surprised. Kanye’s incoherent attack on Jared Kushner during his interview with Tucker Carlson gave the game away. By the way, what he shared on Instagram and Twitter over the weekend is not open to interpretation, as in “is he or isn’t he antisemitic?”—instead, it’s big, it’s bold, and it’s openly, unabashedly antisemitic.
It began on Friday when Kanye was kicked off Instagram, although it’s unclear whether it was for his antisemitic rantings or for something else. The rantings arose in the context of a private conversation he’d had with Sean “Diddy” Combs, which Kanye then apparently published to Instagram. Here’s the Instagram language:
Clearly offended by whatever Diddy told him, along with the Instagram experience (and Instagram, recall, is owned by Mark Zuckerberg’s Meta), on Saturday, Kanye escalated the antisemitic attacks in a Twitter tweet vowing to go after Jews. Twitter has since deleted the tweet, saying it violates its rules, but it lives on as a screen grab:
Hmmmm.
Social media is a big mistake for almost everyone. It is impulsive. It is a letter dropped in the mail you should never have written x 1000.
Or its the phone call you made late at night when you were drinking that you never would make while sober.
And yet, Ye sat in the oval.
Talent? He’s a street thug.
Morning, old school.
Real trash was and is in the White House.
Got a breath mint?
IKR. Really not “our house” any longer. I feel violated and need more that a breath mint!
Blessings on you and yours today Patience.
Indeed…
Thank you.
~Blessings of peace, love, good health… for you and your, oldschool.
Good morning, oldschool. I was puzzled as to why Tucker gave so much time to a sit down with him. I listened to about 17 minutes of the interview and was trying to think of anything worthwhile to post on the thread which had the interview…couldn’t. So I wonder now if Tucker has any regrets about giving him the platform to advertise his vile views. It certainly, I believe, emboldened him to expand on those anti-Semitic beliefs as he did in the days after.
It will be interesting to see if Tucker will address them in the not too distant future. Which I hope he does, or he runs the risk of being in agreement with them. Silence after all is consent.
Agree Betsy. IMO, Kanye has been a troubled soul for quite sometime, but this goes beyond that.
It does, as I recognize only too well.
Like it or not, Kanye is one of the major “influencers” on social media, that our youth and young adults look to for what’s cool. IMO, Tucker had him on to give us a window into those “influencers”, and how they are used to shape our culture by big corp and big gov’t.
I don’t like it. It reinforces the culture of celebrity in all its foul ignorance. Bread and circuses. We as a country in the main have always considered that the world starts on the east coast and ends on the west. What is going on in the wider world today will affect all of us, is affecting all of us. And this is what is considered an essential must see? To cater for those whose lives revolve around social media?
It no doubt follows nicely the plans of the WEF and our Communist government to keep the plebs “entertained” whilst they as our “betters” get on with their eugenics and tyrannies (as was stated by none other than the most satanic WEF cancer of the lot, Harari).
So no, I don’t like it at all. But that’s the shallow world we live in; and I believe until such time that the consequences of being intentionally and completely distracted by social media and its “influencers” are unavoidable, we’ll just have to put up with it.
Good afternoon, Betsy.
Responding to your “puzzlement”, I think Tucker gave us the opportunity to let KW himself tell us who he is, without the pressure of biased questions or the pressure of biased responses. THAT was artfully done, IMO on Tuckers part. Let’s us form our own opinions.
IMHO that was Tucker’s simple objective and I think he achieved it without doubt.
It is interesting to read the range of opinions/ impressions expressed by those who actually watched the interview, especially those who sat through both parts.
And to you, GB. And that may be it. And on thinking, you are probably right. Kanye damning himself by his own words.
My puzzlement stemmed more from his choice of Kanye at this particular fraught time as a focus, as things are spiraling downward at great speed. There are so many others he could have selected for an in-depth interview in order to draw attention to more existential or moral issues which this country faces at the moment. You know them as well as I do.
In short, Tucker’s voice carries a lot of weight which I believe could better have been used than to focus on such a man as Kanye. Cheers, my friend.
Yes. Most of us would have preferred Tucker focus on something more critical to current events.
That said, Tucker himself was recently interviewed and based on what he revealed in that probe helped me indirectly understand his decision to do KW. Timing may have been more schedule-driven than priority-driven.
Method to his madness n then, eh?😉
I think so. But time will tell.
Kanye’s first interview showed courage, a manly dedication to his children, and his Christian faith.
In the positive ways, he reminds me of Caspar McCloud. This man has undisputed guitar skills (having been called the next Jimi Hendrix) and is a world class portrait artist. His talent is obvious.
Early in his career he had severe heart disease and was miraculously cured. He was literally raised from technical death and given the healthy heart of an 18 year old.
When he wrote songs referencing Jesus, the recording label he was working with dumped him and scuttled his career. He overheard a couple of executives saying they needed to get him on drugs so he would write the kind of music they wanted. Caspar walked away from that evil system and eventually became a pastor. It’s easy to look up his name on YouTube. You can see his art here:
https://www.casparmccloud.com/
Kanye still has a superficial understanding of the Bible. The promises of God to the Jewish people have never been changed, and could never be revoked. The Messiah is Jewish. So, Kanye needs to progress in his faith and be established in the truth.
Now I’m waiting to see if Kanye has the character to correct his antisemitic views publicly, and ask forgiveness. We all need forgiveness, without that, we are sunk.
Kanye needs to go read Genesis-12:3. And then read it again. I don’t understand why when someone like Zuckerberg does something bad people always assume that it’s because he is Jewish. No, it’s because he is unrepentant sinner. It’s like saying that buraq is evil because he is half black.
In the Tucker interview, Kanye was talking about the difference between black and Jewish identity. It was between “race” or “people”.
He thought the “black race” identified by color but the Jewish race say we are a “people.”
Jewish people is more cohesive than “black race” and blacks would do better to consider themselves a “people” , according to Kanye’s reasoning
.None of that was antisemetic. In fact, it was more of a positive.
These are thoughts I don’t enter into very often as a caucasian woman .Yet, there are Jews and blacks who don’t like me because I am gentile or white. Take your pick. That’s their problem. As a Christian I regard all who share my faith as brothers and sisters and all those who do not with love .
.
Indeed, all the early Christians and Jesus were Jewish. The Gentiles were only saved later because the Jewish religion as a whole did not accept that Jesus was the promised Messiah. Perhaps a loving God did not want to discard his creation entirely. God looks at our heart.
Kanye should pray for understanding and truth and get off social media.

I have used Square payments since reopening in 2019, best thing about it is when someone purchases off of you is you have their money to spend instantly using your Square debit card, you do not have to wait for it to deposit to your bank account in 1 or 2 days. (assuming you ordered one)
Cash back discount when using it at another Square merchant.
Swipe percentage is half what my bank charged me and they locked me into a 5 year deal with a early termination fee ripoff clause & minimum monthly fees.
Something new they have added is the 3d type scan block & (QR code) that a customer can scan on my phone screen and pay by various apps (Cash App being one) (only had use for this a couple of times for the barely 21 generation)
I see a use for it here tho as screen shots posted here with defined amount donations…..5, 10, 25, 50, 100……
Only downside is it is a Jack Dorsey product, not a fan of his based on his twitter product and censorship thereof.

This one’s for my Mom and Dad, members of the Greatest Generation. How I miss them.
Me too trapper, every day, me too.
Ditto. That tune triggers a flood of good memories of my parents….
I’m about 1/2 way thru a biography of Maxwell after having watched an interesting biopic of him with Poirot actor David Suchet. I knew nothing about Maxwell beforehand.
I found it curious that he got his start in Military Intelligence in the UK – in particular related to Propaganda-type work in Germany after the war that involved culling German Scientific Literature for publication in the rest of the world + used that experience to start his own media empire.
It is also curious that his daughter ended up Jeffrey Epstein’s madame….
We were living in the UK when Maxwell “fell” off his yacht. I could probably count on one hand the number of people who believed that’s what happened. We’ll never know, true or not.
I didn’t realize there was a film about him with Sir David Suchet in the eponymous role. An interesting choice. He is a very fine actor and was, of all the actors who played Poirot, the most faithful to Christie’s physical portrayal of him and in his manner as well, we thought.
Wonder if while he was falling he shot himself twice in the head just to be sure?
…. with a sheet tied around his neck
He “fell” off in the middle of the night. Body never recovered of course. Why is that do you think? Enquiring minds and all that…
In reading a little on him + watching a few videos, it seemed likely he killed himself, but because he was an observant Jew who wanted to be buried in Israel, they accepted the accidental drowning idea so religious laws wouldn’t prevent it.
Suchet’s Poirot is a wonderful gift.
Same with Timothy Hudson + Maurey Chaikin’s Nero Wolfe. I’m still bitter at A&E for cancelling that series + nobody picking it up. There were MANY Rex Stout stories to be done…. The UK had far more faith + insight with Poirot + Agatha Christyie.
Agree!! All so well done. We’ve been through all the Poirots more than once.
Toward the end, his character took a more complex turn, and I was so happy to see them focus on his Christian beliefs. He was rightly knighted for his incredible services to the arts.
I’ve never seen Nero Wolfe. We cut the cord long ago.
But you feel about that as we felt about MAIGRET, with Rowan Atkinson as that eponymous detective…2 series with only 2 episodes, available on Prime I believe, and well worth searching for. We were devastated that those were the only ones done. A real shame.
Atkinson, known for his sillier roles, was an absolute tour de force in these. He astounded us with a consummate performance the scripts were good and gripping. His character brought all the pathos and professionalism to a French detective dealing with murders. I can highly recommend. And I don’t highly recommend much…
I’ll check it out. I like Atkinson.
Not all of the Nero Wolfe episodes got saved in my files – much like Columbo – but most did. Like with Agatha Christie, Rex Stout was very prolific + had a long career. I’m rereading his books.
I was also a big Tony Hillerman fan — but the attempts to capture his style + characters on film haven’t been successful IMHO…
I’ll see of a can find it…thank you for the recommendation.
Mrs. Betsy, after seeing the episodes of “Maigret” with R. A., I decided to read some of the original books by Georges Simenon that inspired the TV series. They were hard to find at first, but a good read for a winter afternoon. And Madame Maigret’s culinary skills are mouth-watering.

His daughter, I thought.
The biography was written before his death + revised soon after, I think, but years before his daughter became known.
His career as an Intel Officer + travels around Communist countries during the Cold War as a businessman is intriguing. What happened with his daughter heightens it.

Thanks. I haven’t gotten to that in the biography nor remember anything about it in the biopic videos I’ve watched.
So I’m back in quarantine now where no post ever gets cleared? The brief reprieve was due to a momentary change of guard?
Honestly, that’s fine. A website should represent the desires of the person(s) who set it up + run it. 100%.
But why not just tell me to go away?
Why not a straight out ban?
This isn’t a typical Leftist outlet where they ban people at the drop of a hat. And any site has to have the right to ban troublesome individuals.
So why this “awaiting for approval”?
Just do it…
Thank you for reclearing me to comment.
I honestly don’t mind being put in Moderation if it gets cleared or rejected within a day or 2.
I don’t mind being banned either. I’ve had websites before + believed from the start that a site is like a person’s child. The owner has total rights for control of the content presented
But staying in limbo forever was harder to stomach.
This is a good site with excellent content + good commenting community…
If you changed anything – even one character – about your email address used to post, it puts you in moderation. Otherwise it’s just a system hiccup. I’ve had it happen to me recently despite not changing my email addy.
Love to all on this thread. Have a guest visiting which is great, sort of. Long story you don’t need to read anything of, but dang. Am praying as to whether to tell this person what annoys me, or just got try to look for what they claimed was a beaver sighting.
Meanwhile an invasion of fleas has descended on my cat people. But Thank you for the music referrals. On my insomnia nights I’ll come here more often.
The Lord and others in the Universe that I pray to are TRULY HEARING AND ANSWERING MY PRAYERS. I am dumbstruck and also so very GRATEFUL.
Gosh IG, may God give you patience.
how long is your guest visiting?
hopefully your cat people are on flea management so the invasion wont last long.
Best place to be in the middle of a sleepless night, Ig. I always think in the quiet of such a night, one can hear Almighty God so much better. And without the distractions of the daytime which plague us all, He can hear us better as well.
October 10 Oswald Chambers
How Will I Know?
Jesus answered and said, “I thank You, Father…that You have hidden these things from the wise and prudent and have revealed them to babes.” —Matthew 11:25
We do not grow into a spiritual relationship step by step— we either have a relationship or we do not. God does not continue to cleanse us more and more from sin— “But if we walk in the light,” we are cleansed “from all sin” (1 John 1:7). It is a matter of obedience, and once we obey, the relationship is instantly perfected. But if we turn away from obedience for even one second, darkness and death are immediately at work again.
All of God’s revealed truths are sealed until they are opened to us through obedience. You will never open them through philosophy or thinking. But once you obey, a flash of light comes immediately. Let God’s truth work into you by immersing yourself in it, not by worrying into it. The only way you can get to know the truth of God is to stop trying to find out and by being born again. If you obey God in the first thing He shows you, then He instantly opens up the next truth to you. You could read volumes on the work of the Holy Spirit, when five minutes of total, uncompromising obedience would make things as clear as sunlight. Don’t say, “I suppose I will understand these things someday!” You can understand them now. And it is not study that brings understanding to you, but obedience. Even the smallest bit of obedience opens heaven, and the deepest truths of God immediately become yours. Yet God will never reveal more truth about Himself to you, until you have obeyed what you know already. Beware of becoming one of the “wise and prudent.” “If anyone wills to do His will, he shall know…” (John 7:17).
WISDOM FROM OSWALD CHAMBERS
God engineers circumstances to see what we will do. Will we be the children of our Father in heaven, or will we go back again to the meaner, common-sense attitude? Will we stake all and stand true to Him? “Be thou faithful unto death, and I will give thee a crown of life.” The crown of life means I shall see that my Lord has got the victory after all, even in me.

Good morning, dear Cat. Hoping a peaceful week will be with you😘
Afternoon Cat!
Good morning all.
JJust got back in. Made myself a breakfast. Jimmy Dean makes this frozen concoction of sausage and bacon crumbles, red and green pepper and potatoes. Pour as much as you think you want into a pan and let it heat and while it’s doing that scramble the number of eggs you want. When the frozen stuff is hot enough pour in the scrambled eggs. I just use two eggs and I make the Jimmy Dean last for about 8 breakfasts. A couple of pieces ofbuttered 12 grain toast and a glass of chocolate milk and you’ve got yourself a good breakfast quick and easy.
Yesterday I was outside cutting firewood to length with my new electric chain saw and splitting the pieces with a maul working up a good sweat and I got the call. I put my stuff away and went in immediately and did the 3 “S”s while Sherry made me a thermos of coffee. About 1 hour later I was at the yard.
New Toyota run but no check sheets. Take an empty trailer down the Somerset, KY (SW of Lexington) and meet a driver down there and trade trailers. The trailer he brought was pretty full of plastic dunnage for Toyota and it is bound for Canada bur I bring it back to the terminal in Anderson.
The trailer i hooked to had two marginal tires and the ABS malfunction light was on. The trailer I brought him was perfect! 95% of the time when we get an ABS malfunction light the anti-lock braking system is just fine but one of the wheel sensors is screwing up.
When I got back I took it into the express bay in the garage. It is SOP for a trailer going to Canada to get a special inspection and any driver brining in a load bound for Canada is supposed to be the one that takes it in for that inspection. This time though they had to deal with those tires also. They changed them both out.
So I was in the express bay for 56 minutes before all was right with the trailer and inspection done so I could go turn in the paperwork and get the placard and drop the trailer.
It is bed time for me. When I hit the sack I’ll have been up for over 26 hours. It is the nature of the on-call driver beast for that stuff to happen and when it does you better be able to deal with it. Lots of drivers can’t and that is one big reason they won’t take the job despite it being the best paying driving job in the Company.
I’ll catch you all later after my long autumn nap.
Gooood second Sunday (your Monday) Treepers!!!
Friendly conversation ensued this weekend…
some said it’s a shout out for the anti-system, a lost soul, fix the problem, we are all one….
Some said the clip and song could be considered the WOKE generation’s national anthem. Idk

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.

Agents of the Democratic Party had been convicted of forging soldier’s ballots and casting them for their candidate, George B. McClellan

Back when Grant took Forts Henry and Donelson McClellan was the chief of the Army and his supporters claimed he directed those battles by telegraph. Never mind that the nearest Telegraph terminal was about 80 miles away and McClellan didn’t go into the telegraph office in DC until 6 hours after the victory at Donelson was announced.
Just stopping by and getting a bite to eat.Didn’t see anyone mention Happy Columbus Day,so I’ll wish it for all and Happy Thanksgiving for our Canadian friends who celebrate it.Hope all have a great Monday and be blessed. Casco 🙂
Hey, Casco! I saw it was Canadian Thanksgiving. And so I wish them a very bless-ed one, with hopes that the next will deliver more to be thankful for for them all. Hope your “Monday again” is uneventful and full of all His blessings.😘
Hello my dear and a wonderful afternoon to you.Not sure if our friends to the north even celebrate their Thanksgiving or not.I just had noticed it on my calendar this morning on my way out the door in the early morn.Knowing that it was Columbus Day,I was kind of surprised that no one had mentioned it while I was quickly glancing through a few hours ago.I guess it’s just a sign of the times…sigh…
The day is going well so far,but there’s still much left to go.(lol) I have a friend coming by later to try and help me solve a problem I have with my landline.He’s REALLY smart and experienced,so I’m keeping my fingers crossed and am hopeful we can fix it.
Blessings to you as well my friend and Happy Columbus Day! Casco 🙂
Good you still have the landline, casco! Hope you both get it figured out! Got to hang on to our landlines!
In celebration someone painted the plywood that covers up the Christopher Columbus statue in downtown Philadelphia the Italian colors of Red, White, and Green.
Thanks Mr.Vespucciland.That’s great to hear.It’s some acknowledgement at least.
Howdy Casco! And a blessed Monday to you.
Great afternoon GrandpaM! Blessings and Happy Columbus Day to you and yours gran amigo mio!
P.S. – I’m going to be giving some hotdogs a big”what for” on the ole Weber tonight…the pork tenderloin has already succumbed to my revenge,so I’m on to my next victim…LOL! All my best…Casco 🙂 🙂 🙂

General Valery Zaluzhny, commander-in-chief of Ukraine’s armed forces, posted a photo to Twitter of himself wearing a swastika bracelet. Although Kiev dismisses accusations of Nazism within its ranks as “Russian propaganda,” its soldiers are often photographed wearing the symbols of the Third Reich.In a post on Thursday, Zaluzhny declared that Ukraine’s struggle against Russia is on a scale that “the world has not seen since the Second World War.” It was not immediately clear which side of the struggle he was referring to.

Would it be possible for Sundance to interpret and comment, please?
Sundance and Treepers, you are on a mission from God.
✝️ Lord, thank You for the day. Amen.
We hear the litany of democrat failures like slvery, the KKK and Jim Crow.. It seems to me that we need to add “The Projects” from the 60’s to that list. Started as part of LBJs War on Poverty, black city dwellers were moved to these huge apartment complexes. Cabrini Green in Chicago was a famous one, but they were all over the country.
The displaced citizens were warehoused in these properties that became little more than crime-infested slave quarters.
