Not quite the offering I was expecting for a South Florida clientele.

Should I be worried?

You have to admire the ignorance of the poor young (and very probable) Liberal) Mr. Richardson. I don’t think I am mistaken when I say Germany is the second most important diplomatic post in Europe (London being first) and for many years when we still had two Germanies, the embassy was in Bonn and it was the diplomatic trenches of the Cold War.

This is the Embassy in Berlin, located one door down from the Brandergurg Gate. I might be old-fashioned and with lack of sophistication,  but somehow it does not look like a ballroom to celebrate weddings, Quinceañeras and Bar Mitzvas .

So, if you suffer from Trump Derangement Syndrome, you can be both dismissive of an important diplomatic post and denigrate Gay People that did not come out of the proper Left Wing Closet.

I just saw this video in Twitter. It is weeks old when the Honduran migrants were breaking through the border with Mexico.
What caught my attention was the guy in the bullhorn telling the photo journalist what pictures to take.
Fake News much?

Such a lovely bunch, this group sent five special forces to the hospital one with a severe head wound, how could you not open your borders to these outstanding members of society.. #BuildThatWall pic.twitter.com/ohELu8GbNJ

I have been told of videos where you can hear the “migrants” cussing the US because they are not allowed in. Normally I would have ignored the accusations, but with all the crap going on and the decades of socialist indoctrination in Latin America, I do believe it is possible. Back in my youth I got tired of seeing the mental disconnect of people wearing Levi’s and Nikes while protesting Capitalism and denouncing US consumerism.

Even the National Weather Service acknowledges it that it gives us a Wind Chill Factor and everything.  I know you people in northern latitudes are laughing, but day before yesterday we were at 87 degrees. 30+ degrees drop is not something our bodies take in stride.

I am already wearing a thick t-shirt inside the house. Gym socks may be involved if I have to step outside.

Buddy Sal F. just posted this meme in Facebook and it is absolutely true:

It made me laugh.

I will freely admit that wild fires scare me. Living in urban South Florida, the chances of being involved on one are practically zero. Ask me about hurricane prep and I will fill your ear. But ask me fire and I will become a functional mute.

I bumped into this video about houses that survived Camp Fire and it was illuminating.

Then I checked on the recommended video that popped after the first.

As usual, a bunch of common sense followed by preparations that go from zero cost to not so much to ouchie. And still it will never be 100% guarantee, but I’ll take 50% rather than zero.

This is happening just now:

Parkland Kids: INVESTIGATE TH SHOOTING! WE WANT THINGS TO CHANGE SO IT NEVER HAPPENS AGAIN!

(Investigation is done, changes are made, people are reassigned)

Parkland Kids: WE DON’T LIKE THE CHANGES! BRING BACK THE WAY THINGS WERE!

And for a moment, you almost get mad, but then remember it is Broward County and pretty much shrug it off. In America, if high school sheep want to end up as Friday’s lamb chop special to a crazy killer, they get to be it.

PS: According to other sources, the protest began with the teachers who resent their buddies got reassigned. Mind you nobody is fired, but still they are raising shit.

To this date, not one single individual connected with the screw up that led to the Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School has been fired. They have either allowed to resign and retire, got reassigned and the majority has not even been chided.

Right now, some other deranged kid is happy that Broward County’s hunting preserves for the criminally insane (A.K.A. schools) are maintaining the same level of security and organization. Mad Killers love soft targets.
