Mallards on the Puddle in the Aftermath of 07MAR2018 Snow Storm<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

So, instead of an inch of snow as promised, we’re getting six inches.\u00a0 Yay!\u00a0 But at least the mallards have returned from Capistrano.\u00a0 For a number of years (at least 3 or 4, maybe more) a pair of mallards show up every late winter\/spring and raise a family.\u00a0 I tried to get their portraits this morning but they were shy and swam off.\u00a0 Above is a picture from a couple of years ago.<\/p>\n

Snow removal will be a part of the daily chores today and tomorrow morning.\u00a0 Yay!<\/p>\n

I noticed Leftists are jumping on the anti-mandate bandwagon.\u00a0 That’s how you know it’s over.\u00a0 The big line is, “It’s not left vs. right, man, it’s about freedom and that’s groovy, baby<\/a>.”\u00a0 It won’t be long before Joe Biden will be trumpeting his courageous victory over COVID and the return of freedom.\u00a0 These people make me sick.<\/p>\n

I saw an article where Pfizer is starting to prepare stockholders for the fallout from vaccine safety failures.\u00a0 They’re going to have to explain how they let dangerous drugs be pushed on children.\u00a0 And Dementia Joe will too.\u00a0 With any luck Fauci and those at FDA left holding the bag will be fired.\u00a0 Prison would be more fitting.<\/p>\n

Canada has indeed been red-pilled.\u00a0 Trudeau will be voted out at the next opportunity and I’m guessing it will be sooner than later.\u00a0 How that changes thing in that country is difficult to say.\u00a0 They have even more sheep than we do, hard as that is to believe.\u00a0 They’ll probably just fall right back into old patterns.\u00a0 Maybe we will too.\u00a0 But maybe not all places.\u00a0 The happenings of the last fifteen years may finally be enough to spark a permanent revolt in some areas of the country.\u00a0 That’s my hope.<\/p>\n

And just to cheer myself up on a day that looks like it will be long here’s something from the way back machine.<\/a><\/p>\n

Well, more to follow.\u00a0 Gotta make the donuts.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
