New Gas Range for the Crib
    GE Gas Range

I took the plunge for a new range in the crib. The old one was working fine and it wasn't til we removed it that we saw where a few minor problems existed — and the new one is high falutin with 5 burners and an air fryer built into the oven.

It seems that the lamer Biden Administration's attempt to eliminate gas ranges couldn't happen quick enough to prevent my purchase.

Ed picked it up yesterday from Jeffers McGill who gave me a very good price on the appliance and had to be shipped from General Electric because I wanted a white one to go with the rest of my kitchen appliances.

I thought long and hard about the consequences of gas installations by those less than qualified idiots such as myself and opted for a professional to do the job so Ed took care of it.

I have decided I want to try my hand at a little baking. I encounter opportunities to get ingredients for brownies and the like and I'm hoping that I can create gastronomic masterpieces without triggering some diabetic coma or worse.

I am somewhat intrigued by the air fryer built into the appliance. Mom and I have been hesitant to try air frying but now I seem to have a built in opportunity to give it a try.

Anyway, I may have to change my name to Emeril or something if things go well. If not, well at least I can prepare my meals in style !

Führer of the Globalist Stupid
klaus gd schwab    

Klaus Martin Schwab was born on March 30, 1938 and became a fugly pointy ass lopsided head German engineer, economist and founder of the World Economic Forum (WEF).

He has acted as the WEF's chairman since founding the organization in 1971. It was obviously contrived for his exclusive benefit.

This man is insane with globalist talons seeking control of the entire planet with his Transnational Institute planning to replace the democratic model with a tyranical regime of leadership called "stakeholders" who like him are engaged in a so-called "silent global coup d'état" to establish themselves as supreme control freaks of the planet.

This man and his cohorts like asshole buddies George gd Soros and Bill gd Gates — as well as other agents — should be terminated with extreme prejudice by any means necessary.

Stupid entitities like the US Democratic Party who are on board with him and participants in his nefarious designs on The Republic are rampant examples of the criminality of the democratic party. This should eliminate them from contention in the matter of international governance.

Klaus Schwab boasts on video about 'infiltrating' the cabinets of other countries to impose his NWO whims upon them.

He gloatingly boasted that he now controls Canada by this mechanism. Where are the intelligent Canadians anymore? Have all of them been sucked into the evil WEF vortex and been spit out as mindless winged monkeys of evil globalist foreigners?

He has decreed that it is illegal to read information that hasn't cleared his personal "fact checkers" upon penalty of incarceration. We know the validity of fact checking in government. There is none. It is simply a selection process for their narrative. How can these people be so utterly stupid?

Other stupid people who seemingly can't see past his world domination scheme include the late Queen Elizabeth II who had the audacity to make him an honorary Knight Commander of the Order of St Michael and St George.

The French surrender monkeys gave him the French Legion of Honour.

The dullard Japanese conferred their Japanese Grand Cordon of the Order of the Rising Sun.

So in the end we of the planet Earth likely deserve his eventual overrun and commandeering of international governance seeing how the world is basically a stupid place without the ability to discern the rise of yet another evil führer in the evil vein of Adolf Hitler. Seig Heil butt holes !

Coup d'état ? More than one can play that game.

Boo !

Bring Flowers to Someone Day 2023
    bring flowers to someone
I was once a flower freak. I used to give flowers to various ladies with whom I became enamoured. Sometimes this went well. Other times there were a multitude of complications which arose from this act.

Finally, I backed off altogether as I began the realization that I likely wasn't marriage material. I must have missed fifty or so great opportunities but the career simply had to come first when I was younger. I did get to do all the dating I could stand, however.

I must say that I think flowers make a lovely gift as long as the spirit in which they are received match that in which they are given.

Today is Bring Flowers to Someone Day. It goes down each May 15th annually. It should be an act of showing someone you care or in sympathy or giving thanks.

Floriography refers to those meanings various flowers attempt to portray. The entire concept is somewhat victorian. I just like a natural form and prefer fragrant blooms myself.

While remaining quite a bit flirtatious these days I don't throw a gasket if the blooms spoil due to inaccessiblity because you happen to work with a bunch of idiots as does my girl. I once gave her a small bouquet for Valentines only to have them sit on her desk for a week due to some COVID nonesense that those in charge felt they were "managing".

Regardless, I hope you'll take a moment to bestow poseys on someone special from time to time. In my mind it's a civilized thing to do.

Happy Bring Flowers to Someone Day !

Tulip Day 2023
tulips    

When I was a kid we attended a spring festival at the high school in Wagener.

My cousin Jackie had an exhibit there called "Tulip Time in Holland" and she was all doodied up and dressed in a frilly ornate lavender gown — and I was left pretty impressed by the entire affair.

Over the years I have enjoyed the tulip for it's unform shape and leaves as well as the myriad petal colors they exhibit.

The tulip will likely remain a favorite with me though those days of carousing with Jackie are long over.

Today is Tulip Day. It is observed every year on May 13. The day celebrates the tulip.

These are bright colored flowers that bloom each spring and make an eye catching garden patch for sure.

They began their existence in Central Asia growing wild. After they began being cultivated in Turkey from around 1000 AD the they became prized by the Ottoman Empire and were specially cultivated for the pleasure of the Sultan.

Around the 16th century they were planted in the Netherlands for medicinal purposes ...

And now tulips are largely associated with the Dutch.

So if you're into the flowering plants you really can't go wrong with a nice section of tulips in your spring garden.

World Health Organization Pervert Paradise
As is the case of the United Nations, who view themselves as the monitors and controllers of the entirety of the world with their attempts at implementing Agenda 2030 ... the World Health Organization is just as inept and just as unjustifiably ambitious.

The World Health Organization has stated that they will take control of sex education for all children and begin it at first grade through sixth grade. Further they state:

  sex education will begin at birth
  be guided by the State via educators and not parents
  European countries Germany in particular have already begun integrating the WHO agenda into their curricula
  children will be taught masturbation, sodomy, sexual deviation and all the other perversons so in vogue with the leftist progressive ideology
  they want to totally destroy the youth prior to age 7 in their misinformed unscientific stupidity
  So the people who want to kill us off with their Agenda 2030 want to indoctrinate the children of the world such that the nuclear family becomes meaningless to subsequent generations that they may manipulate the entirety of the world population toward their own nefarious ends.


    WHO perverts paradise



Quite frankly, the Standards for Sexuality Education in Europe is a ‘rapey’ document that reads like the mind of a child-fiddling psychopath given control of public health.

Senator Malcolm Roberts
Australian Parliament
Children targeted by WHO "Standards for Sexuality Education in Europe"
The Spectator Australia

These people in the World Health Organization — who are just as stupid as the CDC lamers who blew the COVID response out of their dumb unscientific asses in the United States need to butt out of family matters altogether and stop trying to usurp those values and the authority of parents in the name of their globalist peabrain pervert paradise vision of the world.

They are in the same demented vein as those who promote the idea that genetic men can change themselves into actual genetic females simply because they "want" to. These are the same people who think drag queens have something to contribute to the enducation of school children. The people are utterly daft in their lack of grasp in those concepts and beliefs which constitute reality.

National Twilight Zone Day 2023
The Twilight Zone

    
In my beginning there was the Twilight Zone. It was a cutting edge science fiction and horror genre program on black and white television and had episodes featuring the supernatural and other aspects of macabre wonderment in the eyes of a young child. I used to watch it frequently in my pursuit of those things unlike that which was around me and I have participated in viewing the program to this day on occasion.

Today is National Twilight Zone Day.

It is held each May 11 and celebrates both those Twilight Zone series as well as science fiction, horror, and the supernatural in televised drama. The program's several iterations spawned a number of spin offs and all in all it was a great effort on the part of Rod Serling who began those adventures so long ago when I was a young child.

The Twilight Zone debuted in 1959 when I was a mere four years old. My first episodes were viewed in front of our Sylvania black and white television on Lavender Lane in the Aragona Village neighborhood of Virginia Beach. It was a part of that Attack of the Giant Crab Monsters, Attack of the 50 foot Woman, and From Hell it Came Tabanga science fiction aspect of my entertainment interests of that time.

I used to view Rod Serling acting as though he were a witness to the unfolding events as he stood to the side narrating the episodes. I thought those early efforts at special effects and makeup were cutting edge for their times — though they may appear primitive by today's standards — and I thoroughly enjoyed the respite from that dull and commonplace existence called reality that I experienced otherwise.

My fantasy life was in full swing at that juncture and I dare say I couldn't really differentiate between it and reality many times as I should certainly have been able.

So here's to Rod Serling and The Twilight Zone. It's a piece of history, the evolution of television and a whole lot of entertaining fun as well !

National Ship via Rail Day 2023
There was a time when most goods were shipped via rail. This was prior to the ever competing post office, DHL, UPS, FedEx, and of course the myriad common carrier trucking companies all over the place. Prior to this it was the pony express and private carriers.

Today is National Ship Via Rail Day. It happens on May 10 and aims to bring advantages of shipping by rail and utilizing railroads to the forefront by promoting railroad shipping under the auspices of an entity known as Progressive Rail Incorporated.

freight train

Typically, these freight and cargo trains can transport pretty much anything in bulk. Rail shipping is considered more energy-efficient and environmentally friendly than road transportation — but has lost freight business due to an inherent lack of flexibility.

The day began on the 100th anniversary of completing the Transcontinental Railroad in Promontory Point in Utah. The thrust was to emphasize those advantages of shipping by rail and utilizing railroads as well as promote railroad and short line railroad shipping.

Alphabet Magnet Day 2023
    Magnetic Letters
When I was a kid I played with magnetic letter sets which I applied to the fridge on my way to becoming literate.

When I became an adult I purchased a fair number of these for distribution among my nieces and nephews who were all preschoolers at that time — in the hopes they would pursue similar interests.

I think all told I had two nieces who were truly interested with the nephews preferring other things placed into their paths.

Today is Alphabet Magnet Day.

It is observed each May 9 under the auspices of The Type Set Co ® founded by Ashley and Paul Jankowski who specialize in alphabet magnet designs for both children and adults.

The day is about letters. You place them; arrange them; rearrange them; dissasemble them; all in the name of recogniztion and phonetic recall.

These sets have evolved in their sophistication over the years to include numbers and symbols and both upper and lower case letters with duplicates as well.

Anyway, whatever your interest I hope you'll immerse your young ones in literacy by getting them a set of magnetic letters or two because it can really take them places in the future.

No Socks Day 2023
bare feet    
Nowadays I wear socks pretty much all the time. It's a part of my ongoing diabetic foot care. There was a time when I was young and would go barefoot much of the time.

In reality I think going barefoot is much more healthy than wearing shoes all the time.

I have noticed that now my feet are very tender and cannot tolerate even walking on finished pavement whereas I used to run wild without shoes and socks over pavement, gravel, all kinds of surfaces in those bygone younger days.

Just call me wussyfoot in my old age.

Today is No Socks Day. Of course "no socks" can be with or without shoes. It is said to be an international observance held each May 8 annually.

It seems that the sock of today originates sometime after 1589 when the knitting machine was invented by one William Lee allowing the mass production of socks as it were.

Depending on your station in life you either wore wool socks or fine colorful silk ones. Given the unevolved hygiene of those early times I have a feeling that stinkfoot may have prevaled across the land.

A pair named Ruth and Thomas Roy created No Socks Day to allow the world an opportunity to go barefoot and enjoy that "next to the earth" feeling it allows.

So regardless of whether you wear socks or not, with or withouse shoes — Happy No Socks Day to you !

World Laughter Day 2023
    baby laugh
Laughter. The result of merriment. A reaction to humor. The results of being tickled — figuratively or actually. An uptick in your attitude and activities of daily living.

Today is World Laughter Day. It is observed each first Sunday of May making it May 7 this year.

The character of your personal laughter doesn't matter. When you let laughter rip you do a lot of good for both you and those around you.

If you're like me and somewhat less bubbly than you used to be, try to do the best you can.

You may acquire a few "laugh wrinkles" along the way but by and large you will be better off for putting a little mirth in your life.

I used to laugh a lot more than I do presently. There was a time when I believed I was quite the commedian. That was then and this is now.

Happy World Laughter Day to you.

National Fitness Day 2023
Eric Esch    
When I was younger I was an obese child well before it became a national tragedy. When I began thinking of a navy enlistment I began exercising in order to drop some of the useless fat and other food residues that my cohorts in school used to love to bring to my attention so often.

I began running the 3 mile "block" from my parents home to Nantucket then down Jim Williamson Sr Road then back up Hollow Creek Road to their place. Then I went to bootcamp and really got run through the ringer so to speak.

When I returned from bootcamp after being recycled twice and thrown in the brig once I was quite the slender manchild.

I pursued fitness during my early adulthood and gained a mesomorphic configuration which I maintained for a long time.

Then I backslided to my old Kentucky Fried Chicken and Marlboro addictions and lost the bulk of those gains and the increased aerobic capacity as well.

Today is National Fitness Day. Here it is celebrated on the first Saturday of May. This year the day falls on May 6.

The day was founded one coach Kim Bielak in 2017 in the name of fitness and the human body.

So, though I am now old and decrepit I remember those glory years of my youth. I keep saying I'm going to get out there and walk but that hasn't happend either.

Regardless I hope you are trim and fit as a fiddle. I'll try to muddle on by.

Happy National Fitness Day to you !

Europe Day 2023
    shot up stupid EU

The stupid globalist view of the EU under Klaus Schwab think they need to control the entirety of the world from Brussels or elsewhere — as if it really might happen.

It is this misguided type of mentality that has the UN thinking they're the answer to world order as well. What utter nonsense. The bad leadership and stupidity of the WHO during the COVID lockdown farce is simply evidence for the fact that they need to get out of our face altogether along with china and the rest of the idiot democrats.

What all these entities fail to realize is that the insane Mr Schwab and the equally insane Mr Gates are tyrannical interlopers in world affairs and are cruising for a bruising. Just like the equally meddlesome George Soros the nazi jew traitor to his own people who should have been taken out long ago as the war criminal he is.
 

Gentlemen may cry, "Peace, Peace," but there is no peace. The war is actually begun! The next gale that sweeps from the north will bring to our ears the clash of resounding arms! Our brethren are already in the field! Why stand we here idle? ... Is life so dear, or peace so sweet, as to be purchased at the price of chains and slavery? Forbid it, Almighty God! I know not what course others may take; but as for me, give me liberty, or give me death!

Patrick Henry

Today is Europe Day. The European Union celebrates the day on May 9, while the Council of Europe celebrates it on May 5. They can't even get together on the date of "their" day.

They can all go get F☠cked as far as I am concerned.

F☠ck the EU that stupidest idea to ever make it's way to reality.
F☠ck the insane Klaus Schwab who seems to think he is heir apparent ruler of the planet.
F☠ck the even more insane Bill Gates who thinks he is in charge of the world food supply.

National Day of Prayer 2023
praying hands    
I have tried to be a spiritual human being during my life.

There are times when I backslide and behave as I shouldn't.

I just continue and try to be better in the future with the notion of forgiveness driving my continued existence.

I learned forgiveness from my parents.

They forgave may innumerable transgressions of decorum and comportment even though I was quite the repeat offender.

Faith is part and parcel of my culture and I try to live that faith by how I act toward others.

So in this world of the heathan brigand Barack Obama who would dare say that we are no longer a Christian nation AND ...

His nasty abomination husband playing wife Mike AND

The criminal Biden family who sell access to public office for private gain AND ...

Who do not represent my Christian values — I can just look at them and stay clear.

I try to turn to God in prayer and meditation and try to remember those tenets presented to Moses on the Mount Sinai at the burning bush.

The Book of Exodus

20:1 And God spake all these words, saying,
20:2 I am the Lord thy God, which have brought thee out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage.
20:3 Thou shalt have no other gods before me.
20:4 Thou shalt not make unto thee any graven image, or any likeness of any thing that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth.
20:5 Thou shalt not bow down thyself to them, nor serve them: for I the Lord thy God am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children unto the third and fourth generation of them that hate me;
20:6 And shewing mercy unto thousands of them that love me, and keep my commandments.
20:7 Thou shalt not take the name of the Lord thy God in vain; for the Lord will not hold him guiltless that taketh his name in vain.
20:8 Remember the sabbath day, to keep it holy.
20:9 Six days shalt thou labour, and do all thy work:
20:10 But the seventh day is the sabbath of the Lord thy God: in it thou shalt not do any work, thou, nor thy son, nor thy daughter, thy manservant, nor thy maidservant, nor thy cattle, nor thy stranger that is within thy gates:
20:11 For in six days the Lord made heaven and earth, the sea, and all that in them is, and rested the seventh day: wherefore the Lord blessed the sabbath day, and hallowed it.
20:12 Honour thy father and thy mother: that thy days may be long upon the land which the Lord thy God giveth thee.
20:13 Thou shalt not kill.
20:14 Thou shalt not commit adultery.
20:15 Thou shalt not steal.
20:16 Thou shalt not bear false witness against thy neighbour.
20:17 Thou shalt not covet thy neighbour's house, thou shalt not covet thy neighbour's wife, nor his manservant, nor his maidservant, nor his ox, nor his ass, nor any thing that is thy neighbour's.
20:18 And all the people saw the thunderings, and the lightnings, and the noise of the trumpet, and the mountain smoking: and when the people saw it, they removed, and stood afar off.
20:19 And they said unto Moses, Speak thou with us, and we will hear: but let not God speak with us, lest we die.
20:20 And Moses said unto the people, Fear not: for God is come to prove you, and that his fear may be before your faces, that ye sin not.
20:21 And the people stood afar off, and Moses drew near unto the thick darkness where God was.
20:22 And the Lord said unto Moses, Thus thou shalt say unto the children of Israel, Ye have seen that I have talked with you from heaven.

Holy Bible King James Version
Being that imperfect person I am I can only seek repentence and forgiveness.
