GENERAL INTEREST

Submitted By: tevisdiii@gmail.com – Click to email about this post
Thank you Chuck and Barbara for continuing your valuable work to provide our community with the BBQ, which has now grown into what Chuck imagined it could be; a village green where anyone is free to share, announce, advocate, persuade, dissuade, advise, report on and opine about local and global events. This venue for expression is unique and anyone who visits it regularly can take the pulse of our tri-city community and find out “what’s going on”.
Regarding discord from “political” discourse, I would say that almost anything can be considered political. It is just a word basket we throw ideas and opinions into w’ed rather not discuss for fear of exposure to new ideas, vested interests and egos; heated emotions. Policy. That’s what politics is. Shared ideas and information result in policies whether in the family, the city or the nation. Once they are “written”, policies can take on a life of their own and history has shown it’s worth everyone’s time to hammer them out, as in, beat it from one side, flip it over and beat it some more. The idea is to explore options, gather information and try on opposing perspectives.

On that note, I will throw out an opinion, my own, and it is definitely political.
It has got to be obvious that whoever, whatever one considers the Democratic Party Controllers to be, they have gambled and already lost with the present administration. Not a single poll will show President Biden wining against Trump in November. And, I don’t think anyone on their bench will do any better. That boat is on the rocks so in my opinion, anyone who would prefer Trump NOT become our next president, consider the logic and wisdom of this really being as a two way race between Trump and Bobby Kennedy. A 20,000+ person pool gave Kennedy the edge, if it were between the two. Like Bobby Dylan says, ” You don’t need a weatherman to know which way the wind blows”.

This is a worthwhile essay about words, public dialog and shaping views, thus policy. It’s not that long.

Because of the ubiquitous cameras and speed of sharing information, visual, audio, written…all of it, we really don’t have to wait for the “news” broadcast, ( with all that darn sliding, shifting graphics in the background as an added distraction),
to find out what really happens. The many ‘public squares’, not unlike our own BBQ, will slice and dice an event so fast, winnowing out the chaff from the facts, we don’t have to wait for the “Official Report.
The compilation presented below is a case in point.

Thanks again Chuck and Barb.

Take your opinion to the Polls, not to BBQ

Submitted By: pangaeagaia@gmail.com – Click to email about this post
I agree with Kathie Raisler.
BBQ has always had a gentle soul. And although it has raised its voice at times, it has been kind, most of the time.
Take your opinions to the polls, not to BBQ. There is enough hate and consternation on TV and at the table next to you at the restaurant. Don’t spread it to our little community.
Most people know what they support and who, and your SCREAMING only strengthens that support, not changing it one iota.
Thank you, BBQ, for always being there for everyone, even the crazies. But please keep hate out of our community.

What Cannot Be Bought or Sold

In time we come to know, we understand

there is no saving grace in lies and misleading.

Deep and real differences may hold our families;

But there is no saving grace in lies and using

what misleads. Across canyons of time and space,

listening to the voices of trusted elders and

honored friends, “Through love alone will hate be healed.”

Be healed and know we have awakened before,

left behind our ignorance, the delusions of our greed,

hatred, and fear. Slowly, we are abandoning the belief

that a man or woman can own another, assume

or create a relation that does not recognize the

inherent rights and dignity of another. At work

as in marriage, community, and state relations

this entitlement is now a birthright, an achievement

of what is best in all of us. We are awakening, slowly

reaching the understanding that war is not a sustainable

choice. The war in Vietnam, the war in Iraq, wherever

we may look, we are coming to know that war profits

a small minority of citizens. We have heard all their lies,

the reasons why our sons and daughters must continue to die,

why those of us who have the most merit further incentives

to accumulate even more. There is no saving grace in being

misled. We are also awakening to the fragile gift of democracy,

how your voice and vote is equal to all others. Will it ever be

easy to recognize and accept how we have been used?

Each of us knows the answer to this common experience.

But as the typhoons come and the tornados grow stronger, as

species extinction accelerates, and our divorce rates incline,

as our coastal cities submerge and our elders die of unrelenting
heat, we can awaken, recognize how we have been used.

What comes to mind when I hear their notion that we should

deport millions of our brothers and sisters seeking as we have

sought a better life, or listen to their war cry, drill baby drill,

what comes to mind is, “They just let you do it.”

GRID FAIL!

Submitted By: runnawaytrain1@gmx.com – Click to email about this post
This morning’s headlines on Drudge. (Below)

I think it VERY likely we will VERY soon wake up to a total grid down scenario. This might be due to a hack, a mistake, because of the war Democrats are trying to start, or an intentional grid-collapse by the DEMOCRAT WHO JUST TRIED TO MURDER TRUMP. This new brand of murderous Democrat will do anything to get their war with Russia.

In a grid-down scenario, most will die within 30 days.

Clean water will be an issue. So in addition to having ON-HAND EVERYTHING YOU NEED TO LIVE FOR 30 DAYS, also consider taking Kim Miller’s clean-water/emergency scenario WASH class at Nehelam Bay Fire Rescue?

Next classes:

9/14
10/26
11/23

Here are todays headlines on Drudge. If this doesn’t get you prepping, don’t come knocking on my door:

Tech Outage Hits Banks, Airlines, Firms Worldwide… Developing…
MICROSOFT CRASH WREAKS HAVOC…
Most serious IT faliure ever seen… Plunged into dark ages…
Heath care providers report problems with patient services…
Huge hospital group forced to cancel surgeries…
CROWDSTRIKE says not cyberattack; Fix deployed…
‘Could take weeks’ to repair…

Worth noting that Bill Gates’ (reduce population NOW!) Microsoft is the progenitor of this deadly chaos, which will see many die. And this outage is minor.

I have stated my opinion about this on this site, and I will state again that I believe it is quite foolish to remain unprepared for a grid-fail scenario. If you keep 30 days worth of stuff in your garage, clean water, food, medicine, you will have a great chance of making it 30 days with no cash-registers, no gasoline for you car, no electricity, etc.
