hunter and his meatI’m afraid that George Bush carries some of the blame for this, the whole story of development is a decades long horror story.  With very few American players putting the good of the country first.

Happy thought!

I can’t wait until Granny, on her death bed, marries her favorite granddaughter,

and the IRS watches all that Estate Tax money just drifting away into the sunset – instead of into the IRS coffers.

Two same-sex anyones even when not sexually connected can marry and same thing – there goes all that Estate Tax money. Same with SS spousal benefits, health care insurance, military pension spousal benefits, and I’m sure we can all think of other scams that will now become perfectly legal. Oh, the divorce lawyers and the tax lawyers are going to have a field day! || Posted by: SWOhio Gay Marriage: Just Do It! (And Welcome to It)

Thanks American Digest!  You have brought back the smile to my face.

Death of politics.

Useless to rail against reality, I’m going to take my repaired knee out and take more pictures.

To hell with who is president in 2017, who will be the Commander-in-Chief of the Continental Army in 2018?

The Weight of US history is against it.

Scalia leads scathing dissent on ObamaCare ruling, dubs law ‘SCOTUScare’

The firebrand conservative justice delivered one of the most scathing and linguistically creative dissents in recent memory. In a 21-page rebuttal, Scalia and two other justices tore into the Affordable Care Act and the court’s handling of it over the years — effectively accusing their colleagues of twisting the law for the sake of preserving President Obama’s signature policy.

“Today’s interpretation is not merely unnatural; it is unheard of,” Scalia wrote, joined by Justices Clarence Thomas and Samuel Alito.

Barry steals from Peter to pay Paul and later Paul comes over for lunch (tab is again picked up by Peter) and at the end of the meal, Barry appoints Peter to a government job.

I’m putting this date in my calendar; “On this date in American history, The Republic Died.”   June 25th 2015.  By assassination, it’s murderers were; Barack (whatever his real name is) Obama, Chief Justice John Roberts, Nancy Pelosi, and Harry Reid.  The puppet-master behind the scenes; George Soros.

Mrs. Peel, we’re needed!

Dapper and discreet, Avengers gentleman who charmed us all: Bowler-hatted star Patrick Macnee dead at 93

Sitting up at night, wiggling the rabbit ears (Huh?) and being enthralled by the wonderful and often outrageous stories from Old Blighty.

They should put in his epitaph, “Great choice in leading ladies”.

If it was Che’, it would be insensitive. (Updated)

To all those governors rushing to kowtow to the SJW on the over one hundred and forty year old tradition of flying the flag of the Confederacy by ordering, by executive fiat, those historical emblems be torn down.  Bye-bye!  Someone should tell you that you are alienating your friends and former supporters to please those that (in the case of the GOP governors)  hate you.

Lets run down the points;

What about the many families with honored dead who fought for the Confederacy who habitually decorate the graves with the Confederate flag on Memorial Day.  Those men who died on your soil and on far away battlefields but whose blood belongs to their home state.  Don’t they deserve to have the flag under which they fought fly above the capitol of their home state?  It always has, who are you to change the tradition of one hundred forty years?

Freedom of Speech.  Period.   The radical left isn’t the only voice that can be heard in America.

Mental illness, not conservative politics caused the Charleston tragedy,  how delighted the murderer must be to see how you are enlarging his footnote in history.  Dylann Roof and his primary partner, our race-baiting president are scant justification for your actions.  But they approve.

Are you going to do anything about the thousands of Che’ posters and even flags that are proudly displaced on the walls of classroom and offices in your state universities.  How about the posters and flags honoring the Soviet Union or Cuba or Communist China?  Or how about the Mexican nationalist group Rasia that wants most of the American Southwest given to Mexico?  Their flag has appeared behind state and federal officials on TV.    Or is all that insensitive? 3194UlXhJCL

NEW 3×5 Che Guevara Red Flag 3 x 5 CUBA 3X5FT Banner

By the way, in a related note.   The Che’ flag, as well as;  Nazi flags, Soviet flags, Cuba flags, Communist Chinese flags are still being sold by Walmart, Amazon.com, Ebay.  As well as anti-Christan Rainbow, Gay and Lesbian flags and offensive posters.   What is no longer being sold by Amazon and others are any Confederate flags.

Amazon still sells Gettysburg a film that could not have been made without the involvement of the re-enactors who equipped themselves as entire Confederate brigades complete with battle flags.   I imagine that Amazon took this action because (liberal pile on!)  they estimated the loss of the sales from these items to be not important to the bottom line.   Lets prove them wrong.

Cancel your Amazon.com account.

(Update one month later:  It’s official, I’m no longer an Amazon.com customer.  Those liberal asskissing bastards can officially go to Hell.)

Update: I have to share this.  First my e-mail to Amazon.

Your Name: John 
Other info:The utter and complete gall of Amazon; Confederate heritage
Comments:The greatest mistake any retailer can make is to make an partisan political decision that is going to infuriate a large proportion of their customers.

So you have decided to elevate the mental disturbed murderer in Charleston to a greater importance than he could ever deserve by and solely on his actions you insult and disenfranchise millions of your customers.

A few questions; what about the many families with honored dead who fought for the Confederacy who habitually decorate the graves with the Confederate flag on Memorial Day,  do you still sell the movie “Gettysbury” which could not have been made without the re-enactors who equipped themselves as Confederates, and do you have no respect for the men that fought bravely and died gallantly in the cause of States Rights?

It has not gone unnoticed that you still sell (even promote) Communist flags and emblems, Nazi paraphernalia and emblems, the Mexican Rasia related flags and posters.  Che’ was a mass murderer and torturer, he has a special store.

If Amazon has become a political affiliate of the far left then I can no longer do business here.  By the way, the link to contact you used to be at the top, it took me ten minutes to get to this point today.  Arrogance is another unattractive feature of any business.

Amazon’s response, not just a Robot but a Non-English speaking Robot.  And the answer to the last question, would be NO.  As you read this, think about Amazon’s claim that the majority of customers support their action and want any and all Confederate merchandise removed.   And that MY response has been counted as supporting that position.

Lyme Disease

Back to slurping down big pills full of anti-biotic for the next two weeks.

Lyme Disease… again.    Third time in ten years.  Not surprising, I haven’t seen a dog and only one or two cats in the yard in many years.  But deer?  I’ve had so many deer on my property at one time that if I could have shot, skinned and dressed them all and popped them into the freezer I would have had a lifetime supply of meat.   (But I really don’t care for the taste)

Will the town do anything about the explosion of deer?  No.   They don’t even post the entrances to the parks with Lyme disease warnings.

I’ve been asking myself why I’m so unlucky with this little problem and then it occurred to me.  I’m a widower and after four years I’m very lonely.   In my prayers at night I’ve been asking God to send me a nice chick.   Maybe I need to enunciate, maybe he’s been hearing me ask for a TICK.

Cast Iron

Food Thread: Ironworker Edition [CBD]

—Open Blogger

cast iron.jpg“Commenter (mostly lurker) Lando034 has done something wonderful with his new cast-iron pans after his vintage pans were “lost” by the movers. But first some background on cast iron cookware.”

Terrific article on cast iron cookware…and I totally agree.   After the fire the only piece of old cookware left from the kitchen was my large, square cast iron fry pan.  Thus proving it’s indestructibility.  Over the years I’ve renewed the seasoning as needed and followed a few simple rules of care and use and it’s better than ever today.  In the meanwhile I’ve gone through several sets of Teflon pans; handles that fell off (odd since they weigh a fraction of the cast iron), coating scratched and worn through to the base metal.  IKEA  pans of any type are good for about three years, in the long run they are not cheap.

Moving into the new house I bought a new cast iron dreadnought Lodge L8DD3 Double Dutch Oven and Casserole with Skillet Cover, 5-Quart.
The deep lid can serve as a frying or saute pan, so the meat or other items being browned to go into the pot can be done in the lid and when the lid is placed on the dutch oven, all the juices automatically go into the dish.

Add the two pieces together and you have a panni sandwich maker (warning: you will need good wrist strength); the skillet is greased with butter or olive oil, the sandwich is placed in the skillet, the dutch oven lid is placed on top of the sandwich and last the dutch oven is placed inside the lid.  Cook for three minutes, lift lid and oven off, flip the sandwich, replace lid and oven and cook other side for three minutes.  Hot, savory, and flat.  Very flat.

Cleaning cast iron hopefully everyone knows that you Do Not use soap!  Hot water, a cloth or plastic scrubber, rinse and repeat if necessary.  You do not want to disturb the seasoned surface!   Then I put the pans on the stove with the flame on high until the moisture has evaporated.   The heat has a sterilizing effect.  If the pan is smoking, rub with a little bacon fat.

The last thing you will want to think about is who you will leave your cast iron cookware to when you die.  Make sure it’s someone who is worthy.

Woman to replace Hamilton on $10 bill.

ten-dollar-bill-closeup-35898377That decision is totally unnecessary!

Because Alexander Hamilton thought of himself as a Woman!
