Michael:
If your stout is pure enough, might it run your generator in a pinch?
In the old olde days I suppose Islanders kept warm during winter burning mostly firewood. Was burning coal ever a thing in the outports?
Phoenixvoice:
You’re observation that the masks make it very hard to communicate with anyone who is hard of hearing is spot on! Be hard of hearing myself, I sure have had issues communicating with other people. Often I have to get people to write their message on a piece of paper. Others have just lowered their masks to facilitate communication. Even for deaf people the masks hinder communication since deaf people often use their mouth and facial expressions as part of sign language.
Anyway good on you!
Madamski:
Seems to be a lot of local stuff going on with covid “control”. Saw were Florida teacher’s union said they control what happens in the schools, not the governor nor the parents of the kids!
Michael:
I see Trudeau just bailed out Newfoundland’s Muskrat Falls project so electricity costs no longer need to double. Not sure how it affects you being off grid. Guess you could be happy or pissed off?
P.S. We are enjoying fall like weather here in Ontario over the Civic long weekend. Have guests so a real downer. I guess you will get it in the next few days.
Michael:
Good olde Carnation evaporated milk! As you know I grew up on that stuff. Powder mixed with the cans.
My Mom still used evaporated milk in the cans as cream in her coffee and tea until she died!
I would imagine the stout might taste better! Probably not so good for your innards though! But agree when the chips are down, great tradeable currency! Afterall when times are tough, many folks need to drown their sorrows!
So the last step is when the CDC says the vaccines don’t work and never have! They will never, of course, admit that!
I think for young people looking to get married and start a family, they need to avoid picking any covid mRNA vaccinated partners!
All this week I have been an electrician installing outlets, switches, lights, and a ceiling fan in the screened in porch. I am also a carpenter, plumber, BBQ cook, boat taxi driver, among other things. Jack of all trades, master of none!
Russians and their Ruler’s rules.
Russians know the fastest way to eliminate their Ruler’s rules is to totally corrupt the application of the rules!
They pretend to rule and we pretend to obey!
Here is what surprises me. We seem to be hearing nothing from the life insurance companies about the surge in break through deaths due to the vaccines. Maybe the insurance companies are being secretly compensated by the government? Maybe they have been told to keep their mouths shut? Things just can not be business as usual for the insurance companies. Especially on the long term disabilities side.
John Day:
I worked with a number of Texans in the coal mine near Window Rock, back in the seventies. One of them was Speedy! One night while back in Texas, drunk, Speedy, driving his fiberglass bodied Corvette, went off the road and somehow managed to find and side swipe the only fence post in all of Texas! The repair bill was huge!
John Day:
I think your idea that the vaccine may be the bio-weapon is likely correct. That explains why Biden is doubling down on vaccinating everyone. For now coercion, but later by force?
Oroboros:
I think the best way to deal with idiots like dan andrews is to just ignore him! Just because he is priemer of the state of Victoria, doesn’t prevent him from being an idiot! Probably a corrupt idiot at that!
Dr. D. RICH:
I would like to try and give you a big picture view of what is happening to you regarding the vaccine mandate.
Yesterday NYC major declared all city employees have to get vaccinated. Then a short time later Biden announced all veterans employees have to get vaccinated. Then California’s governor announced all state employees must get vaccinated. These 3 events were not random. They were carefully co-ordinated!
Why? Remember a few days ago the CDC instructed all labs to switch to a test that can differentiate between covid and the flu, that mysteriously disappeared?
The powers-to-be know, with the switch to a new test, that the number of covid cases will fall sharply!
They are planning to tell everyone that the number of covid cases is falling due to the increasing number of people getting vaccinated!
In effect they are doubling down on getting everyone vaccinated! You are unfortunately amoung the people that they can directly coerce!
Notice that Biden didn’t say any other government employees, like the DofJ or FBI have to getvaccinated! I wonder why?
Up to almost 2 am trying to read all of today’s comments!
So you never left Boz! How is the book writing going?
Today I have been an electrician adding wiring to the new screen porch. I will likely be an electrician for the next 2 days at the speed I wire things! Was trapped indoors by numerous thunderstorms this afternoon and evening.
Tonight, after taking my son and daughter over to the mainland, so they could head home to big bad Toronto, I went for a short canoe trip. I put a 5 gallon bucket of water in the front of the canoe so the wind wouldn’t blow the front of the canoe, every which way, on me. I saw 2 white swans with maybe 3 young gray swans. I returned just after sunset. Unfortunately it was cloudy so no glorious sunset to see. Still it was relaxing and a nice way to end the day.
Britain’s self inflicted “ping” pandemic strikes me as a deliberate effort to continue to drive the covid fear factor. There can be no other logical reason, considering the economic damage being inflicted by this mal-ware. Nobody would do this unless they had a political agenda that the end justifies the means.
We are now seeing the msm hyping the blame the unvaxxed and make them pay and suffer narrative. They are doubling down on their lies. They are trying to delay the day people realize that the vaccines don’t work and may be creating long term health consequences for those who got vaccinated. Sadly we are not there yet.
It looks like the dems have something to hide! The orgins of covid! They just defeated a bill to reveal covid’s orgins. China joe hard at work! Actually it is Obama they are protecting, not the Chinese!
The msm are reporting joe had a townhall meeting yesterday. Per CNN it was of course a roaring success, not-with-standing joe’s brain farts. Their not even trying to hide this anymore!
Then someone posted a picture of joe’s townhall meeting from the back! Looks like only the front 3 rows are occupied! Likely just DNC staffers. No Joe Public! Looks a lot like hillary’s big non-crowds! You know where they only show hillary to hide the fact that there was no crowd at all!
Huskynut:
In a way NZ is merely delaying the covid spread. Sweden sort of had the right idea. Maybe NZ will luckout and get a less deadly version. Only time will tell who was right.
Madamski:
When you are “faucing” everyone, eventfully someone will call you on it!
Dr fauci deserves the way overdue swift kick from Rand Paul!
Sadly a psychopath like fauci has no feelings, thus no fear.
Madamski:
I think a while back I think we once discussed the velocity of money or M2. At the time I said I no longer paid any attention to M2 because it was an obsolete measurement, but couldn’t remember why.
The reason M2 is obsolete is because it was designed to measure paper based payments like cash and cheques. Today none of these paper payments exist any more. They have been replaced by electronic online payment systems, making M2 obsolete!
Madamski:
Are you aying Dr fauci is faucing us?
(faucing = lying to)
After all a new word is definately required to explain the outrageous behavior of Dr fauci!
Just like Mr. Bigot outrageous behavior gave us the new word “bigot”!
Mr. Bigot actions caused New France (Quebec) to fall to the British!
Ff topic. Commenting on one of the TAE’s articles!
So the US AG is going to stop his own DofJ from seizing journalist’s communication records every time someone in the deep state government decides to leak disinformation to journalists!
How self serving the deep state is! They are just protecting themselves, not the journalists!
Oh look! A squirrel over there!
Nice spin by the deep state to cover their real motive!
I noticed that Florid governor pointed out only legal lawful US citizens are required to follow covid rules. Illegals are not required to follow Bidens covid rules!
John Day:
Justin Trudeau made weed legal across Canada last year, or the year before, I believe. I don’t think the provinces are getting the taxes they expected due to setting their prices too high. I think you are only allowed a few grams of the stuff.
Rubbarb is another tough plant! My Father once found some growing beside an old abandoned Hudson Bay fur trading post, in Labrador, about 100 miles south of where we lived. This fort had probably been abandoned nearly 100 years earlier and the rubbarb plants had managed to survive all that time!
Madamski:
Weed will become legal when the politicians need more tax money to spend! Just like lotteries!
Clearly Canadian politicians were more desperate sooner! Yours will come around sooner or later!
Madamski:
The Russian authorities openly complained about Russians drinking too much, and the one solution they did try was introducing Pepsi. There was a bottling plant about 10 hours away from the mine where I worked. We managed to convince the mine manager (ex-major and Vietnam advisor!) to send a mine truck up to the Pepsi bottling plant. The biggest problem was the lack of glass bottles! We collectively had to promise to return the empty bottles or we wouldn’t get any more Pepsi! I think we managed 2 round trips before winter arrived.
Funny thing about the mine manager was that because he had travelled a bit, he was the most reasonable one we had to deal with! Everyone else below him were true sticks in the mud! If you were Russian, “NO” was only said once by them and that was the end of that! But not with us!
I can tell you when you put together a bunch of experienced service reps from many different countries and companies, you get a collection of some very independent minded types! Types who don’t take “No” for an answer, but view it as merely the starting point for obtaining “YES”! As a group were were deadly!
So, you close the front door!
We come in by the back door!
You close the back door!
We climb in a window!
You close all the windows!
We climb down the chimney!
You block the chimney!
We make a new side door!You finally realize resisting is futile!
Better to give the buggers what they want to keep them quiet!
Or word will leak out that you can’t keep the foreigners under control and thus get yourself into trouble!Madamski:
I guess the number one surprise for me in Russia in 1983 was the general lack of hope. Drinking was their coping mechanism. So much so, the authorities didn’t dare cut vodka production!
UpstateNYer & Madamski:
When I was in Siberia, admittedly southern Siberia, the locals started many of their plants indoors by windows. (Yes, many of the wooden houses suffered badly from the ground heaving. It was not unusual to notice on corner of the house 2 feet higher or lower than another house corner.)
Then as spring came and the ground thawed, they started putting their early plants into cold frames. (Nobody had green houses.) These wooden cold frames had removable tops made of either glass or plastic. I noticed that they also kept buckets of water inside the old frames to ward off mild frost. If it was to be a hard frost, then they either brought many plants back inside or put blankets over the cold frame tops.
If it was a nice sunny day, they would remove the cold frame tops to let the plants harden and not get over heated. During cool cloudy days, or windy days, the cold frame tops stayed on. As you can imagine, this required a lot of effort but these people depended on these small but very productive gardens for their food. The reality was the garden remained their entire focus through out the short summer.
Here in Toronto, my parents started many plants indoors before transferring them to a small cold frame with a southern exposure. They also used buckets of water and blankets to protect against late spring frosts. So they faced the same problems UpstateNYer faced.
When my Father was growing up in Saskatchewan, they started tomato plants indoors beside south facing windows, before transferring to cold frames. However the growing season in Saskatchewan is too short to grow tomatoes, so they would allow only one tomato to form on each plant. They also heavily pruned the leaves forcing the tomato plant to focus all of it’s energy on just the one fruit. Often they had to pick many tomatoes green to avoid an early fall frost. Then they would ripen the green tomatoes on the window sill.
Up in northern Labrador some folks would put up a wind fence around their garden and try and grow southern crops like corn! The tallest corn I ever saw reached about a foot high! Of course they never succeeded in growing anything! It was just the “trying” that counted! The futile garden made for a great conversation piece with friends and neighbors!
In northern Labrador, my parents grew 2 things in their miniature garden, green mint, and tiny radishes! Mom would make reen mint jelly. Wild daisies and pansie were the only two flowers they grew!
V. Arnold:
Actually 100 tablets is enough for you and your wife to last almost a year! You only take one ivermectin tablet every 7 days or if every 14 days, then you have a 2 years supply!
As far as the other stuff you have me beat! Question: Why 5,000 mg of vit C per day? Maybe I am low?
V. Arnold:
While you are waiting for your order of ivermectin, you can take zinc with aspirin. I think the aspirin helps a little bit in conveying the zinc into your cells, but not sure. Someone on TAE is doing this. (I think the aspirin helps with keeping blood thinner for heart and stroke prevention too.)
Here in Canada I can’t get any ivermectin since Canadian customs seizes all ivermecrin orders. My doctor refuses to proscribed, having drank the kool-aid.
I have been taking 250mg of quercetin with 25 mg of zinc (50 mg pill split in half) everyday (plus 5,000 vit D3-split 2,000 morning/3,000 evening, and 1,500 vit C). It is my understanding that the quercetin also helps convey the zinc into one’s cells just like ivermectin does. (I suspect ivermectin is the best at coveying zinc into one’s cells, plus other benefits, and you only have to take once a week or every two.)
Regards,
I spent yesterday and today making 3 thick floating shelves for my daughter. First, I had to increase the vertical height of my drill press to drill the 1/2″ dowels holes in the 2″ x 10″ wide shelves. (The original drill press had previously been modified to drill large round metal plates for a homemade wind turbine, many years ago.) I re-modified the drill press again yesterday. Last night, I hand sanded the 1/2″ diameter wooden dowel’s diameter down so it would fit easier into drilled 1/2″ holes.
Today I cut the 2″ x 10″ x 8″ pine board ($28) into three 26″ long shelves, drilled four 3″ deep dowel holes in the back of each shelf, then ripped 1-1/2″ off the back of each shelf to make the wall mounting boards, and cut twelve 3″ long dowels. I then carefully hand sanded all the shelf boards, mounting boards, and dowels.
As darkness fell my daughter happily conditioned, then stained each shelf piece. Tomorrow the shelves receive their second coat of stain. After that dries, it is 3 coats of varnish with a light sanding between coats to ensure a nice smooth finish. Then Wednesday I have to leave the cottage and travel back to big bad Toronto to install the shelves in the bathroom above the toilet. The trickiess part will be finding the 2 x 4 studs behind the drywall to secure these fairly heavy shelves to.
So what does this have to do with the TAE. Nothing! Except I, like John Day, am doing my own thing! The hell with the world!
BLS released second quarter 2021 labor statistics today. Labor wages fell 1.2% from second quarter 2020. Add in your favorite inflation figure and you arrive at a much greater lost of purchasing power for workers.
Particularly hard hit were women. All of this is by design. That means housing prices have likely peaked.
The 3rd quarter will likely be even worst followed by an even worse 4th quarter. Are more free money checks on the way to boost inflation even more? Sadly anything is possible in our upside down world!
Yesterday I was taking a little siestas on a lawn chair in my daughter’s Dutch Drawf rabbit’s cage.
(For those a little worried about how I managed to put a lawn chair and myself into a little 2 pound rabbit’s cage, the cage is 8′ wide x 6′ high x 20′ long! Her favorite hobby is digging new tunnels in the pure sand! She has dug so many tunnels that she has raised the entire cage’s floor by at least 4 inches!)(Strangely she has never dug a tunnel to escape. The one time that her tunnel surfaced outside the cage, she plugged it by backfilling the tunnel!) If I knew how to take a picture of the cage of less than 512K
( and put it in my post I would, but I don’t.Then I notice Moki stand upright on her hind legs. That means she has spotted something of interest! I suspected her friend the deer, but I didn’t see the deer. After I left the cage, my wife said the deer had walked right past her, not 20 feet away, on the other side of the rabbit cage! It had never dawned on me to look behind me for the deer! Delights of being at the cottage!
Biden needs 70% of Americans vaxxed. Trudeau needs 3/4 of Canadians vaxxed before he will open the US/Canada border to fully vaxxed travelers.
Well I just completed a big study that found over 70% of Americans are fully vaxxed! I also just completed a big study on Canadians and found over 3/4s of Canadians are fully vaxxed!
Now joe and justin have no more excuses! Their goals have been fully met! Bbee.
Yes they are doubling down on discrediting ivermectin while doubling up on vaccinations, just as we figured they would. They certainly are not worried about our health!
The white house pressitute Jen psaki admitted the white house flags any facebook comments they don’t like and sends them to Facebook to be removed. Now they don’t even bother to hide their censoring of the media! Imagine if Trump tried that!
Today the Arizona state senate released some early vote audit findings for Phoenix. Yes everything is on the level with no fraud whatsoever found. Clearly Biden won Phoenix a landslide! BBee.
Madaski:
The media are only covering this flying because the illegals are being flown from one part of the border to another unfamiliar part of the border before being expelled!
Don’t forget the msm are simply not covering the border because they have been told not too. Joe can get away with the US military flying illegals into other parts of the states because the msm won’t mention it. The US military told everyone to keep their mouths shut or else!
Mister Roboto:
Sadly being disabled for life is in many ways a fate worse than death. Now the mother will be forced to look after the daughter for the rest of her life. Naturally Pfizer or Moderna aren’t going to surrender a penny of their profits to help her. Sad.
The Democrats need another squirrel named Trump, to divert attention away from the vote audits! A squirrel named Biden can’t even make people look!
The US Sturgeon General has just issued guidelines for big tech to censor any comments that oppose Biden’s vaccine narrative!
Biden is secretly using the US military aircraft to distribute illegals throughout the US. You aren’t supposed to know this, so keep it quiet! No doubt illegals are being ferried to where companies need cheap labor. How is your $15 an hour job doing? Still at $7? Wonder why?
Moderna is just launching a study to see if their vaccine is safe for pregnant women to take. Our upside downworld!
Clearly for some reason we are starting to see an all out effort by governments to vaxx everybody in the west. But not in the third world.
