the hurricane got a little closer to treefrog manor than expected, but no serious damage here beyond a power outage of about 60 hrs – trees down on the lines upstream from me. no worries!

It’s true, and I strongly believe there is a lot of other sons here that fathers were also blessed but perhaps some weren’t blessed to have a father or like yours so you are both blessed. Suffering can also come with sorrow and there is a greater sorrow to lose everyone and everything than the ones they leave behind are only losing them on a personal level so glad you will be there and hope someone told him your were coming so if something happens be can take comfort in knowing your on your way.Even in coma’s they can still hear you.

That’s something some will learn and some will never learn. Planning is part of humanity and survival. You don’t always get it right and comes from learning. Also learning who you listen to or put your trust in. I saw a interview with a Aussi diver, what a story, He went on a dive with a group on a fishing boat with a laissez faire idiot for a captain of the boat not even credentialed.
To make it brief he had to surface after having help another diver lost grip with the line I’m a current. He thought no big deal instead of fighting it to get back would just surface and go back down. The captain pulled up the lines to fish and told him he’ll pick him up after the dive is over instead of going to get him. So he let this diver just stay in the water and drift out to sea where the diver could no longer see the boat and about 4 feet of waves. Then this idiot delayed calling coast guard because he didn’t want to get in trouble.
The diver made his last video and didn’t mince words and being “human” can’t blame him. The coast guard couldn’t see him but fortunately the boarder patrol was looking for illegals and notice a large bull shark circling then wait what was that in the water near the shark, a human. That’s how they found him. The police pulled him on board and all he wanted was some warm tea and because dehydration and salt water but all they had was ice water.
Through his experience he learned to plan better on what he needs to bring with him and experiences are also a mother of invention on how to improve chances of survival that might have story’s behind it. So let’s not cut off communication opinions and expressions because it’s also a firm of learning and input but instead censoring “ except to protect children ” and dictation and baiting that’s meant to deceive.
Thank you Goldie
That’s a very kind thing to say.
Lastly, samb
I don’t know why you are such a bitter person. You pop in every month or 3 and are never kind. You’ve always been that way. No one calls you out when you swing and miss, nor should they.
If you don’t like what you read here, either let it go, prepare a civil disagreement, or just go away. Easy choices.
There’s something about folks from the Northeast, a general nastiness. Not all, but more often than not. That’s a helluva way to live.

I’m glad your going to be there with him and give him comfort. Per the Bible. Death the is the final enemy to be defeated.
But even death cannot defeat life because even in death comes life.
He’s gifted to have a son like you.

maddog,
Thank you. Just hoping that he is not suffering. I’ll see tomorrow. He’s in the ICU, so I suspect some decisions may need to be made.

Unless you are a Prophet, very well Blessed or a Hierarchy Saint,,,You the poster are elevating yourself now to absolutely speak in His behalf? What you would like to happen now, how it would exactly happen , then when it would happen is well beyond your call. Welcome to Humanity.

Sorry to hear that my friend. Life has pain in it and no way of escaping it. Makes a person look at their own life.

Keep straight and you decrease your odds of such untoward instances!

It might be painful, but it will be awesome … and what we deserve.”
So true. Word.
maddog – interesting though
With all that dollar strength, oil is still up 2%, above $85.
The oil wars being waged on the US are just beginning.
We could be completely energy independent and supplied Europe with oil. Worse than that, we blew up the Nordstrem 2 pipeline and severely damaged the German economy.
Being an ally of the United States is not such a great thing these days.

Wow … that’s what they thought the last time … not that Trump the chump is such a bargain (think OPP Warpspeed, he was MIA in the count and could have turned the vote in Arizona – he is false opposition).
He’s in bed with the J bankers so who cares.
They will have the war before the election to lock everybody down to keep their boy in through mail-in ballots because they maintain more control of the purse-strings.
Look at all the $’s still going to Zelinski.
He just bought his mom a new mansion in Egypt right beside Angelina Jolie.
The only one who can intervene at this point is God … and he will … and it will be awesome.
It might be painful, but it will be awesome … and what we deserve.
We will move back towards the natural order … where each man’s sovereignty must be respected.
Cheers mate
The good news though
is that when this is all said and done, the pain ends.
God will not allow these demons to rule the earth much longer.
Gold is not going to save us, and truthfully, I’m finally OK with that. So much time and energy wasted chasing money and stuff.
We all get to where we’re supposed to be eventually. Just wish I’d figured that out sooner. 🙂

Re Copper theft….i see it is from the recylcing part…….nothing changes..those scrappies are as bad as they come…..I knew one who had special pockets made in his tailored trousers, so he could get larger wads in….I bought something off him once for £ 1 and have never seen before or since, anything dissapear so quickly .
His mum was alone in the house once and some guys robbed the cash…..a reward went up and then two guys dissapeared and where never seen again…..rumoured to be under a quarry somewhere that he owned.
Maddog- agree
There’s nothing new under the sun is there? Whether it’s history of declining and corrupt nations or pm’s.
There is a common thread if you look for it though.
