I may not have made the A list of bloggers but I’ve certainly managed the A list in marriage and in the end that’s much more important.

Posted: April 8, 2022 by datechguy in UncategorizedI’ve got to learn to say stuff when I think of it because when I wait someone else gets it out there first like Christina Pushaw who pointed this out:
I suspect there are plenty of people in the Gay community who really dislike the media/left pushing this stuff because it reinforces all the stereotypes that they spent the last five decades shaking off. I further suspect that they are afraid of saying what I just wrote outloud because the only things the left hates more than either God or conservatives are anyone they consider apostates.
Pushaw’s comments are part of the response to the move by NYC to try to attract floricans who might be outraged by the inability of teachers to talk sex with 5-8 year olds without their portents consent or knowledge.
Now given that taxes, impossible COVID restricts , looting in the city and crime to the point where people aren’t safe even in toney neighborhoods or shops I’d say that the type of people who would move back to that environment over the new Florida law are exactly the type of people that the state would like to rid itself of.
It’s often said that it’s not the crime it’s the coverup that causes the most grief. Something like this is happening with the War in Ukraine.
While the war itself has plenty of horrible within it that will cause grief for years the side effects of the war from the cutting off of gas from Europe, to the nationalizing of a Russian company in Germany will have much longer lasting effects on the world.
The biggest of these is Russia pegging the Ruble to gold giving it an actual real value as opposed to most other currencies that are backed by good intentions and high hopes. The end result to the commodity markets, the dollar are likely to mean that Russia while hurt by this stuff is going to do OK in the end.
In fairness however these things won’t hurt western elites that much, only the regular people who they considered their serfs and as far as they’re concerned we deserve it.
Tuesday I finished by playoff series in the 1969 Draft league for Dynasty baseball. My Seattle Pilots won the final two game of the series that had been even to win the AL Pennant against a very tough Cleveland Indians team lead by Co-MVP Harmon Killebrew who hit a solo shot in the bottom of the 8th with the season on the line to tie the game. The only reason why it didn’t give Cleveland the lead was that Tommy Harper made an incredible play on a line shot by Jimmy Wynn that would have put two men on for the Killer. Instead he doubled off Sudden Sam McDowell who had singled which meant that when Al Weis hit his deep sacrifice fly with one and and the bases loaded in the top of the 9th the go ahead run could score without even a throw.
The Series begins today against a very tough New York Mets team that is led by NL MVP Hank Aaron acquired in a trade with the Braves and a rotation about as loaded as you can get Steve Carlton, Juan Marichal, Tom Seaver and Denny McLain that cost him a fortune in draft picks and future prospects.
I don’t fancy my chances countering with Mike McCormick, Dick Bosman, Casey Cox and Ken Holtzman but if I do go down it will be fighting and I’ll only be down one one fifth round pick (traded for Ron Farley) for next season.
If nothing else I hope to do better than in my face to face league where I was swept away ignominiously so quickly that I actually had time to get to a 3:15 pm confession after starting the series just before noon.
Still two leagues, two world series, not bad at all.
Incidentally still have two openings for expansion teams for the1970 season in this league and we’re always recruiting in the face to face one.
game on Every now and then there is a funeral mass at the time of my scheduled adoration. Usually when that is the case I just leave early but I decided to stay for the funeral mass. I had been adoring in the area where the family usually sits so I moved to just behind that area and was shortly replaced by a block of about 50 family members dressed impeccably, children, grandchildren and some great grand children.
While the woman in question was a faithful catholic within five minutes of the start of the Mass it was very clear that not a single one of those family members had been to Mass in years. It was one of the saddest experiences of my life.
My sons are 28 and 30, neither is married yet and the prospects of me living long enough to have anything near that large a clan at the time of my death to attend my funeral mass are slim to non-existent but I feel pretty good about my chances of having a larger group of faithful family members in attendence.
Pray for her family.
The usual RINO Senators are once again aiding and abetting the Democrats in the destruction of the United States
Posted: April 7, 2022 by Jon Fournier in UncategorizedTags: collind, datechguy's magnificent seven, jon fournier, Ketanji Brown Jackson, lisa murkowski, mitt romney, natural rights, rino, supreme court
Senators Romney, Murkowski, and Collins have all announced that they will vote to confirm Ketanji Brown Jackson, Joe Biden’s insanely radical nominee to the Supreme Court. Thanks to the support of these three traitors, Judge Jackson will be confirmed. This betrayal will do great harm to the American people.
A lot of attention on social media was focused on Judge Jackson statement where she rather foolishly argued that she could not provide a definition for the word woman. I for one had a lot of fun sharing memes about that farce on Facebook. That statement was exceptionally woke and cringe worthy, rather than dangerous.
The following exchange with Senator Cruz, as documented in this tweet, which took place during the confirmation hearings, is exceptionally dangerous, and should utterly disqualify her from the Supreme Court.
That one statement should bring chills to each and every American. It shows a callous disregard for one of the most important founding principles of the United States. This founding principle is enshrined in the Declaration of Independence through this most crucial paragraph.
We hold these truths to be self-evident: That all men are created equal; that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable rights; that among these are life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness; that, to secure these rights, governments are instituted among men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed; that whenever any form of government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the right of the people to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new government, laying its foundation on such principles, and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their safety and happiness.
It is impossible to overstate the importance of the concept of God-given Natural Rights when it comes to understanding the meaning of the United States Constitution Our Constitution was written specifically to protect the natural rights of each and every individual.
Those seeking to turn the United States from a Constitutional Republic into a Socialist Democracy see the entire concept of natural rights, granted to each and every individual, as a serious impediment to their grand scheme. They wish to dismantle our entire constitutional system, which is based on individualism, and replace it with a system based on collectivism. Having Judge Jackson sitting on the Supreme Court will make those plans much easier to execute for the Democrats and these three traitorous RINO Senators will vote yes on her confirmation.
Voices of the Catholic Men’s Conference Sr. Madonna Janet of the Sisters of St. Paul
Posted: April 7, 2022 by datechguy in catholic, special eventsTags: 2022 catholic men's conference, catholic, have fedora will traecl, sisters of st paul
I speak to Sr. Madonna Janet of the Sisters of St. Paul at the 2022 Catholic Men’s Conference at Assumption College in Worcester.
It worth noting two things here:
- She is wearing a Habit so is readily identifiable as a nun
- She talks about young sisters using some of the new internet and social media tools which means her order, unlike others are drawing young sisters to keep going.
I submit and suggest that the 1st point has an awful lot to do with the second.
Unexpectedly of course.
