There is a story about how the special rare style of eclipse that will be viewed from Texas is going to produce issues with Texas’ power grid renewable side because said eclipse will be so long.

This highlights one of the things that sane Red States need to address. As people flee to them the demand on basic services from Electricity to water are going to increase which means you have to build the infrastructure to handle said increases. This means power stations, dams etc which will mean some expense for state budgets.

Of course they might decide not doing this will keep the liberals out.

There was a story out of New Zealand that I referenced briefly yesterday that based on their specialties Doctors were given Covid Vaccine exemptions but only if they did not reveal said exemptions is yet another “post Christian” horror story where the general population was kept in the dark for fun and profit but there was a stat in the story that I must confess throws me off. To wit:

The most highly Covid vaccinated nations in the OECD are in order Portugal, Chile, Canada, Iceland, New Zealand, Spain and Australia. Their average percentage of the population vaccinated is 91 per cent. Their average rate of excess deaths so far in 2023 is 12 per cent above the five-year historical average.

The least Covid vaccinated nations in the OECD are Slovak Republic, Slovenia, Poland, Estonia, Czech Republic, Hungary and Switzerland. Their average percentage of the population vaccinated is just 63 per cent. Their average rate of excess deaths so far in 2023 is 0 per cent compared to the five-year historical average. In other words, they have averaged a normal death rate.

The great difference between excess deaths is not a surprise but the 0% figure from countries that have a 63% of the population vaxxed is. 63% is a solid majority of the population. I’m no doctor but the math seems inconsistent that there would be no statistical excess deaths given that more than 3 in 5 of the population took the jab if the jab is the cause.

I’d be interested in seeing the historical rates of some of the known COVID jab side effects pre-covid in those countries vs the others and I wonder what the booster rates were in those countries. That might be the difference.

Stacy McCain took on the Trevor Bauer story on great Major League pitcher who insisted on his innocence and had the courage and wisdom to hold out till said innocence could be proven.

While I suspect the lawsuit against MLB will be epic as his suspension cost him tens of millions of dollars the bottom line is that by not embracing the Church’s teaching on marriage and sex Bauer put himself in that situation. However as many young rich men won’t listen to that point Stacy pointed out some basic facts both about there statistical odds of a genital herpes but more importantly a basic fact of life that might make a more effective argument:

If a woman is very attractive, why is she still single at age 27? Why is she still in the dating market? What’s wrong with her?

Now if you’re date her for a while with the thought of Christian marriage you might be able to find out the answer to that question but if you’re out for a quick lay these are the risks you take.

God’s laws aren’t just the right thing they’re the smart thing.

Thursday I was at a stop light in Fitchburg with a large truck on my left next to me. The light turned green and because I was running early I paused before going because our two lanes were going to merge into one not wanting to bottle neck.

It’s a good thing I did because the very next moment a car from the lane whose light just turned red passed just in front of me at high speed, jumped the curb and crashed into a parked car at the bank parking lot where I had been five minutes earlier.

If I had been a second or two faster in moving forward that car would have hit my drivers door square and you would be reading something else this morning.

I seem to have run into a lot of things over my lifetime where the difference between life and death was a split second away. I guess all those Rosaries make a difference.

Finally if you are in the New England area on Saturday October 28th consider Groktoberfest put on by the good folks at Granite Grok .

It will be an excellent chance to meet up with other conservatives. There will be music, comedy, Local Groups and Vendors, food, beverages, Speakers and even a gun raffle. (Ruger 10-22)!

Tickets are on sale now here. I’ll be buying mine before the end of the week.

Tent Cities and COVID Vaccines Both Subsidized Profit Centers

Dr. Cartwright: [Referring to the South Derbyshire council] Virtually all the children can read and write, even though they’ve had a progressive education, oh yes and they have the smallest establishment of social workers in the U(nited)K(ingdom)

Minster James Hacker: And that’s supposed to be a good thing?

Dr. Cartwright: Oh yes, sign of efficiency, Parkenson’s Law of social work you see. It’s well known that social problems increase to occupy the total number of social workers available to deal with them

Yes Minister: The Skeleton in the Cupboard 1982

Today Don Surber noted something important about the various non-profits that service the homeless;

“The camps are managed by Urban Alchemy, the San Francisco-based nonprofit that has rapidly grown into a multimillion-dollar street services enterprise and embodies an elastic philosophy of shelter. Urban Alchemy calls them “safe sleep villages.”

So, the homeless get to live in bigger tents while Urban Alchemy gets another fat city grant. Taking care of the homeless is quite lucrative. Down in Paragraph 20, the LA Times story reported these tents cost $44,000.

44 grand per tent plus the city paying $3 mil for 24/7 food means that somebody is getting a whole lot of bucks which makes the homeless a profit center.

“But DaTechGuy,”, you ask, “Aren’t these are non-profits?”

A “Non-Profit” is a tax status, it doesn’t mean that the people working for them do not make a ton of bucks working for them.

Basically there is no profit for these non-profits which are getting giant grants to actually solve these problems because once these problems are solved there are no multi million dollar grants to pay the activists who are basically on the government dole on a grand scale with ego massaging virtue signaling titles.

It’s no different that the COVID vaccine racket.

You see the reason why Ivermectin had to be discredited publicly is that if you a treatment that can stop COVID for pennies a dose you can’t get an emergency rule with tens or hundreds of millions of dollars without liability through the government.

It’s not about solving a problem, it’s about getting well off or with luck even generational wealth.

That’s why thousands had to die from COVID vaccine side effects or from the disease and hundreds of thousands of mentally ill drug addicted homeless must continue to suffer, so that others might become rich.

They had better hope that they are right about the Christianity they have rejected, because I wouldn’t want to face St. Peter in this state without the mercy of Christ to fall back on.
