Well I thought I may as well get started on my Birthday From Hell (66th) post tonight since Nancy is still indexing away channeling her Puritan Work Ethic and that is how the Publishing Business works. The Puritans have been in the news lately. Today I learned what I will be doing in Hell for Eternity but wrote about that previously. And tonight I am realizing that with last week’s Moderna booster that the Bill Gates Microchip has been activated and someone I know may be finding himself in Forged Vaccine Record Hell right now. He deserves it. I hope they catch him when he tries to return from Canada. If not, he eventually faces the wrath of the defrauded on 5th Avenue, and at least one Canadian.
At least the food in Hell will be good, if it comes in this packaging:
He deserves it with his anti-vaccination pro-Ivermectin attitudes, his willingness to bend or break the rules simply because he’s a wealthy, self-important and privileged SOB willing to put others’ careers not to mention lives at risk. Apparently the forged passports are exploding - and with the “NuMu” Omicron Variant they have upped the scrutiny. At the border they have access to every State’s vaccination record database and they are checking everyone. I thought of tipping them off but I heard that this is no longer be necessary. Most who are taking this risk to travel across the border are the same ones who haven’t taken this Pandemic seriously. So a Vaccine Record that one flashes at Blaine or any other border crossing is like painting a Bullseye on oneself with “Forged and Unvaccinated” written on it. Actually they can paint it on their Bullshit instead.
These people are not very smart. Omicron will be the 5th Wave. Don’t worry! With a careful application of Bleach it will all be over by April 2019. In another universe where certain people are still Game Show Hosts. Friends are at that “do or don’t decision point” as far as deciding to open the summer music camps. I suspect most will eventually be disappointed. If the Republicans win both houses and steal the election, then we won’t be over this Pandemic until long after this decade. Do you think a modern Pandemic can’t last that long, considet: The longest-enduring pandemic disease outbreak is the Seventh Cholera Pandemic, which originated in Indonesia and began to spread widely in 1961. As of 2021, some 60 years later, this pandemic is still ongoing and infects an estimated 3-5 million people annually (Wikipedia). Covid-19 isn’t going away anytime soon. It kills at a rate of 2.5 million deaths annually.
My old high school sweetheart Betty said tonight that we must do all we can to stop these people, some of which who are now asking publicly when they can start using their assault rifles on Democrats and Liberals. I am glad that the trio who killed that jogger are going to rot in prison. If Trump steals the election, they will get pardoned and given medals. Just like the ones he released after Malheur.
That would make me barf. Starting tomorrow I go on a low fiber diet anyway so I suppose I must take a break from chewing on exposed insulation down at the vast Port Williams Shipyards near Sequim where I really work. I’ve ever made a flute in my life. That is just to impress you. All I do all day is sweep old musty Asbestos, and eat some for dinner. I am never cold and this is why I wear shorts all winter. Remember folks, this is all true because you Read it on the Intranets.
Actually I am looking forward to the Junk Food this week - except that the Booster not to mention all of the amazing Mexican Food this weekend and my stomach - is telling me that I should just do the liquid diet early. So I am doing so, as seen in my painting Still Life with Junk Food.
Note that the Trader Joe’s Chocolate Passports are now in. These may be more useful at the Border than a forged Vaccine document. They are about as good as Pralus’s and may simply be a rebranding. The reviews aren’t sure. I have eaten several lifetime’s worth of Cacao and I actually prefer this to Pralus. At $9.99 each its worth the risk and much cheaper than a forged vaccine card. The boxes are robust and make great containers for retired credit cards, business cards, guitar picks, etc. I use these in the workshop for tools thus these become a business expense. I simply dispose of the packaging down my gullet.
Tomorrow we’ll do some bird watching though I suspect I will be starting the day answering to a few pissed off museum curators or such. Not if they are doing their jobs. At this point this individual is their problem.
Lately we have had a Flicker pounding on the top rail of the wall on the inside corner formed by the exterior walls of the kitchen and my office. It is not doing any damage as that wood was pounded in place in the early 1990s and is hard as a rock. There is also a bunch of guano there from this or another bird such as the swallows who spend their nights there all summer. Apparently this flicker who is there reliably every morning has a taste for this shit, or need for the phosphorus, magnesium or calcium. Maybe we’ll grab some for next year’s garden fertilizer. I’ve heard that it can be used this way. I have to do some climbing to get it though and my Quads still aren’t right.
These birds, always my favorite, have the most emotional and plaintive sounding calls and I thinking having one as a pet would be interesting, although illegal. They do pound on gutters and the chimney cap and have thus so far left the siding and roofing intact. They are noisy climbers. They do not go after My Nuts nor any other fruit or vegetables. The Jays and the Eastern Gray Squirrels are pests.
I suspect that around here these flickers are strictly insectivores. While Nancy and Lila were checking out colleges and away one smacked into the car at full velocity as I was driving down the driveway. I placed this apparently dead bird on a beam in case it was just stunned. It wasn’t. I found a recipe in a big French cookbook and attempted some Roasted Flicker. Tasted like chicken but was tough as nails and had no fat. The stomach was full of dragonfly larva (I think) - and these grubs are really huge. We always have plenty of dragonflies and the flickers are sometimes as numerous as starlings.
We won’t need to kill any birds to survive during this year’s upcoming Nuclear Winter. Its quite balmy outside actually. Russia and the Ukraine have decided that Nuclear Winter is the only thing that will prevent next summer’s Heat Dome in Seattle. They are setting up for this experiment, which - if it works - will be repeated as needed. If we get really desperate, all we have to do is grab a Weasel-killed dried animal from the attic above where we sleep at night. I think he kicked out any squirrels that were up there, or more likely added these to his larder. I saw him the other night dragging something big up through the bird block hole.
Its my Birthday, at least in Europe and on 5th Avenue! Time to Celebrate!
