I Had This Book Once, And It Was One Of My Treasures As A Kid. Sadly, It And All Of The Trappings Of

I had this book once, and it was one of my treasures as a kid. Sadly, it and all of the trappings of my childhood were lost in a house fire, thanks to the landlord, one Hiram Chait, torching the place for insurance money. And it was an arson that nearly killed me as a result of my witnessing him and his friend set the blaze. I ran from them and hid in an outbuilding that was some kind of barn-garage thing, and they set that on fire, too. An old axe 🪓 saved my life, but the handle broke in the process. Too bad, because I sure would have liked to have taken a few dozen swings at the landlord and his accomplice. Especially since the son of a bitch was never prosecuted...

But yeah, very cool book for a Trekkie geek...

This was awesome. I think I still have mine, along with the Enterprise blueprints published not long before.

I hear the growing cacophony of angry Leftist wasps and cicadas as the Hive where they hide is under attack. What a wonderful sound...

I bet folks in Dresden wished that they could have had that back in World War II... maybe they'd have seen "it" coming...

Those people had just a really crappy Valentine's Day in 1945...

I do feel this so vehemently, but I also want to point out that the greater part of defeating that dread disease is faith, fellowship, and mindset. Manifestation isn't just for financial gain. It can also get you some time back to enjoy the ones you love THAT much longer.

Peace and prosperity, to all.

Amen!

At the risk of riding a joke like a desperate jockey on a lagging nag (made a couple of Target jokes in comments and shares this week... that's what I mean...) , this set of photos is every single Target merchandising exec's wet dream. It's retro and fucking red. And plastic fantastic! They could ride this pony until Black Friday if they play their cards right... just sayin'...

Anyone who is enraged by these revelations and goes after those exposing these crimes and criminals is part of the problem. Look past your indoctrination to the light of truth, and you will see that the truth has been there all along. You just chose to ignore it for selfish reasons. But it's never too late to do and say the right things...

EPSTEIN’S CLIENT LIST ABOUT TO DROP – Top Politicians, Hollywood Elites & Wall Street Billionaires

EPSTEIN’S CLIENT LIST ABOUT TO DROP – Top Politicians, Hollywood Elites & Wall Street Billionaires EXPOSED!

The storm is here. President Trump’s relentless legal warrior, Alina Habba, has sounded the alarm: The Epstein files are about to go public. The elite are trembling. The hidden names, the blackmail, the crimes they thought would stay buried—it’s all coming out. Washington is in panic mode.

For decades, the corrupt elite—**the same ones who rigged elections, silenced dissent, and waged war against Trump—**operated in the shadows. They blackmailed politicians, funded globalist agendas, and controlled the media. But now, judgment day is coming.

Habba’s Bombshell: Full Exposure Is Inevitable

Appearing on FXO and Friends, Habba laid it out:

“Transparency is coming. They’re panicking because they don’t want the world to know who visited Epstein’s island, who’s a pedo, and who still sits in DC.”

This isn’t just another scandal. This dwarfs Watergate. The very people calling Trump "dangerous" are about to be exposed as the real monsters.

Why They FEAR Trump: He Knows It ALL

The deep state’s obsession with destroying Trump? It’s simple:

Trump knows who was on Epstein’s Island.

He knows who was blackmailed.

He knows who controls the puppets in DC.

He knows where the bodies are buried.

With Pam Bondi now vowing to unleash the files, the corrupt elite are spiraling into chaos.

Epstein: The Cabal’s Secret Weapon

Epstein wasn’t just a predator—he was an intelligence asset. His island was a blackmail factory, targeting politicians, CEOs, and celebrities for control. Funded through shady NGOs, shell companies, and even government programs, his operation was bigger and darker than anyone knew.

And when Epstein became a liability? They silenced him.

Suicide? Not a chance.

But here’s the kicker—his blackmail files survived. And now, they’re about to surface.

The Deep State’s Next Moves: Chaos Incoming

The cabal won’t go down without a fight. Expect: 👇

Massive media blackout – They’ll pretend nothing’s happening.

Disinformation storms – They’ll label the files "fake" or "politically motivated."

False flags & distractions – Riots, financial crashes—anything to shift focus.

Mysterious deaths – Whistleblowers and insiders? They’ll start disappearing.

More attacks on Trump – Indictments, smear campaigns, and witch hunts.

But NOTHING will stop what’s coming.

The Deep State’s Worst Nightmare Has Begun

Trump has been preparing for this moment. The sealed indictments. The military tribunals. The takedown of the corrupt elite.

“The days of the government hiding from the people are over.”

The Epstein files are coming. The guilty will be named. Justice will be served.

Trump was right all along.

And now, the storm hits. 🤔

Random thought: do any of you folks share my sneaking suspicion that bugs that alight on your phone or computer screen are actually thrill seekers and not idiotic light fanatics? That they're just hoping for you to blast them with a rush of air from your mouth or hand, to shoo them away, so that they go on the baddest ass flight of their lives?

Just a random thought...

Peace, love and collard greens, y'all... yeah...I'm Southern... and a kilt-wearing Scotsman...

There is no legitimate argument against this statement, especially in light of the fact that daily, an average of 32 veterans commit suicide, while others become homeless (at present, roughly 300,000 veterans are homeless).

Don't we kinda already have Yogi Bear as President? Maybe Pence isn't exactly Boo-Boo Bear, but Trump IS always flying in the face of The Ranger (ahem, Pelosi and Schumer...), and he's quick to snatch the nearest picnic basket, as long as it gets the job done...ish... So, yeah, maybe, Yogi Bear for President!

?

Ummm, now I've gone and confused myself...
