Trump must know the Q work is built on crowd sourcing future hindsight with nostradamus like precision. Q is bad astrology with some sprinkings of truth in it.
Reading some of Trumps press releases it looks like he is trolling the progs a lot. But if he got sucked into Q and really believed it when he is the focus of the effort? That would be bad. But the left is controlling the narrative and are allowed to label valid concerns as Q. unhealthy.

This is from Katie Hobbs, running against Kari Lake in AZ
When I had a miscarriage, I needed surgery to protect my own health. That lifesaving treatment was the same procedure that’s commonly used for abortions — a procedure that Kari Lake wants to criminalize. As Governor, I won’t let that happen.
The procedure she is referring to is commonly known as a D&C (dilation and curettage). TONS of women have this done for various reasons, ranging from an iffy PAP test as prophylactic, to ‘clean up’ after a miscarriage or abortion – this is not uncommon. Women know this. Nobody is going to criminalize this. The stupid just burns.

@ lobo91:
I never got to see Buddy Guy. I did get to see BB King and Percy Sledge several times in small venues/bars in Alexandria La., while TDY to England AFB. Carolyn Wonderland played with BB King a couple of times. How did you like Carolyn’s set? I’ve known her since the mid 90’s, I rented half a house on 11 street in Houston for a few years. Carolyn and a few other Houston musicians used to stop by our house after they finished their gigs and jam until the sun came up. Fun times.
@ Bordm:
You may still have time to see Buddy Guy, if tonight was any indication. I was expecting him to be sitting in a chair onstage, the way BB King did in his later years. Nope. He gets around better than I do.
Carolyn Wonderland’s set was great. So was John Hiatt this evening. I didn’t realize that he had Sonny Landreth playing with him these days.

I think Kilgore was female. No proof, just a feeling.
The Biden regime’s controlled collapse of the U.S. southern border allowing millions of illegal aliens to pour into the country is part of a larger plot to establish a world government, according to investigative journalist Lara Logan.
Logan talked about how the massive invasion of millions of illegal aliens into the U.S. is part of a “longterm plan and political ideology to obliterate the sovereignty of this nation and change the way the world looks, forever.”
“It’s not just America’s sovereignty that’s on the chopping block, it’s sovereignty over the world,” Logan said. “It’s just that this is the place that is the light and the guide for the whole world. And so this is the country that has to fall first in order for the other countries to fall.”
Logan went on to explain that a high-level source within the globalist “cult” at the United Nations told her that the plan involves bringing in 100 million people into the U.S. to then justify combining Canada, Mexico, and the U.S. into one governmental entity.
“And what I learned from a source, who is a very unique source, having infiltrated the Globalist ‘cult’ at the UN level is that he was in high-level meetings that required a number of security clearances where they actually discussed the plan to bring 100 million people into the United States, in order to pave the way for a regional government of US, Canada and Mexico,” Logan said.
“And that was to bring in 100 million people from Latin American countries, together with a strategy of creating these cartels, making life unbearable. It’s called the ‘Push-Pull Strategy,’ where they push people out of these countries, where it’s unbearable living like this and they pull them into the United States.”
She continued, “And then, once you’ve reached that critical number of over a hundred million in this invasion, they will then propose, ‘Well, for your family and friends back home, who need ease of travel, they need a better life and so on and so on – we can do all this better with a regional government than we can with a US Government.’ And they will have enough critical mass inside the country in order to effect that policy.”
Logan warned that under the Biden regime, that globalist plan to dissolve the United States into a regional governmental body has accelerated.
These claims corroborate a now-deleted UN strategy document from 2001 called, “Replacement Migration: Is It a Solution to Declining and Ageing Populations?” that outlines a plan to flood America with migrants by 2050.

* Did you notice Kilgallens comment about Hopes nose being ‘ski jump’ like in appearance ? I’ve had that same thought in my head since I was a kid when we used to watch the olympic ski team practice at one of the ski jumps around where we lived. Now I’m wondering if I picked that up from her when watching this show (we never missed it at our house) or if I came up with it independent of her comment ? Maybe his famous beak just inspires that thought in all who watched him ?
Yes, these are just the type of questions and critical deep thinking that keeps a bon vivant member of the intelligentsia, such as moi, awake nights.

It’s a scene straight out of the Dirty Dozen or Suicide Squad. A close confidant of Vladimir Putin, Yevgeny Viktorovich Prigozhin, pitches combat duty to a prison yard full of inmates, promising clemency for service in Russia’s floundering invasion.
Far from recruiting personnel to embark on explosive, do-or-die missions, the men now being wooed into the Russian armed forces with offers of clemency for past crimes are in this case being sent into a meat grinder of Russia’s own making.
“Nobody goes back behind bars,” he says. “If you serve six months, you are free. If you arrive in Ukraine and decide it’s not for you, we execute you.”
Alcohol and drug abuse are fine, as long as the conscript was not addicted to their poison. Looting and sexual assault are out, though those who are incarcerated for sexual abuse will be excused because “mistakes happen.” He then clearly explains the mission.
“We only need assault troops.”
It would be interesting to know if even after the horrific sales pitch and of the prisoners took the deal.
Retired three-star general and former chief of U.S. Army Europe (USAREUR) Mark Hertling called the move “formalized fratricide.”

Between Nov 29, 2017, and May 7, 2021, 5215 patients were screened and 423 were randomly assigned, of whom 408 (201 thrombectomy alone, 207 intravenous alteplase plus thrombectomy) were included in the primary efficacy analysis. A modified Rankin scale score of 0–2 at 90 days was reached by 114 (57%) of 201 patients assigned to thrombectomy alone and 135 (65%) of 207 patients assigned to intravenous alteplase plus thrombectomy (adjusted risk difference −7·3%, 95% CI −16·6 to 2·1, lower limit of one-sided 95% CI −15·1%, crossing the non-inferiority margin of −12%). Symptomatic intracranial haemorrhage occurred in five (2%) of 201 patients undergoing thrombectomy alone and seven (3%) of 202 patients receiving intravenous alteplase plus thrombectomy (risk difference −1·0%, 95% CI −4·8 to 2·7). Successful reperfusion was less common in patients assigned to thrombectomy alone (182 [91%] of 201 vs 199 [96%] of 207, risk difference −5·1%, 95% CI −10·2 to 0·0, p=0·047).
Interpretation
Thrombectomy alone was not shown to be non-inferior to intravenous alteplase plus thrombectomy and resulted in decreased reperfusion rates. These results do not support omitting intravenous alteplase before thrombectomy in eligible patients.
Funding
Medtronic and University Hospital Bern.
anyway…mrs coldwarrior’s big assed hospital ran their own trials and the data looks great. the old thinking that thrombolytics precluded thrombectomy because of the increased risk of hemorrhage is unfounded.
it appears that a bridging thrombolytic until a mechanical thrombectomy in acute ischemic stoke patients with large vessel occlusion is the way to go. it does not increase the risk of cerebral hemorrhage and improves reperfusion and NIHSS markedly.
mrs coldwarrior and friends did not realize that they needed to be well versed in stats to pull of their paper. i got volunteered.
this is very, very good shit.

A lot of people know this. I’ve written before about Harry and Meghan and usually it’s humorous about what assholes they are. But they are being used to take down the monarchy. If she was aware of the agenda, she’d be fine with it, as it is she’s operating from the ordinary narcissistic POV that it’s all about her. Harry is just along for the resentment ride.
The problem is Charles. He is an absolute globalist, one world order type. He’s a decent human being but he’s an idiot. William isn’t much better with his climate change crap. Look at a map of the countries that comprise the Commonwealth and…picked off one by one. You may think that the UK/Great Britain doesn’t matter any more but you would be wrong.

That’s not the dynamic. Even tho there was a gov’t inquest into Diana’s death in which the French gov’t fully cooperated and the entire British royal family has seen, Harry lies about it. It was within the past 2 months that Harry said AGAIN that his mother was chased to her death by the paparazzi.
That is not what happened. DIANA had called her contacts in the paps and let them know when they would be leaving the hotel. She did not wear her seat belt. The driver was impaired. That is the trifecta.
The only person to survive was the only person wearing a seatbelt.
Harry knows this. He lies about it.
Harry gets credit for initiating the Invictus games. The problem is – he didn’t. He copied it from the U.S. Warrior Games and even THAT was not his idea. IIRC it was the idea of Dave Hensen, but I may be mis-remembering that.
The only way he got clear of Eton is because one of his instructors took his final test – in ‘Art’ for him. Another lie/fraud. Otherwise, he would have flunked out.
Clarissa Bonas was his previous girlfriend before Meghan and she dumped his ass after 2 years. Harry credits her with getting him into therapy. But the day after his engagement was announced she posted this: “”No matter how educated, talented, rich or cool you are, how you treat people ultimately tells it all,”
He was constantly telling her there were paps spying and, according to her, there was nothing there. There were too many nights they had planned a date and ended up watching TV in Nottingham Cottage (Kensington Palace) because Harry was convinced photogs were outside the door.
Harry written an emotional narrative that gives him the starring victim role. THAT is the Meghan dynamic. She validates his victimhood. If he sees HER being victimized by the same agents – he has to protect her at all costs to protect his narrative.
His entire family sees it. The photos of Meghan in the car with Sophie, Countess of Wessex, are stunning. Sophie’s face is granite. She never even looks at Meghan, does not utter a word. On the Sandringham walkabout, there was a nanosecond when Kate got out of the car and laid eyes on her – laser kill shot. Meghan got it and her body language was telling. The movement of her arms was pure anxiety.
There is another thing that people talk about but they don’t see it.
Meghan’s clothes rarely fit. On the walkabout, she wore a black burlap sack. I could show you pic after pic and HER CLOTHES DON’T FIT. The photo where she and Harry met the photogs to announce their engagement – shoes too big. Her wedding gown did not fit. Usually they’re too big somehow, but sometimes too tight.
When you buy clothes from high end designers, YOU GET FITTED. Hell, I bought stuff off the rack at Nordstrom’s and got fitted.
That tells me she has some body dysmorphia going on – she doesn’t see how she looks and she won’t be told.
In any event, she is the classic definition of a narcissist, Harry is her prime intimate, and if the cycle follows the usual pattern, the next thing to watch for is his devaluation by her. In the meantime, they are being used by people who want to bring down the monarchy, which will be fine with Meghan, because they all absolutely refuse to validate her.
Right until they put her up against the wall with the rest of them. She’s now on record fighting for an HRH designation for their kids. Bad move.

Two different federal courts, in two different Circuit Courts of appeal, have refused to grant preliminary injunctions against the implementation of the ATF “Final Rule.” The Final Rule completely changes the definition of a firearm in Federal law.
On August 23, in the United States Court for the Eastern District of North Dakota, in the Eighth Circuit, Judge Peter D. Welte refused to grant a preliminary injunction against the massive changes to federal law proposed in the “Final Rule” put forward by the Biden Administration, through the ATF.
On August 24, 2022, the District Court for the Galveston Division of the
Southern District of Texas, in the Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals, refused to grant a preliminary injunction, against the Final Rule, in a case brought by Division 80, LLC.
Thus, the Final Rule went into effect on August 24, 2022. Enormous parts of the firearms industry and the nation are now in turmoil, trying to figure out what the Final Rule actually means.
In practice, the Final Rule appears to give the ATF the arbitrary ability to label any set of tools, parts, and information that make the private manufacture of a firearm easier than a firearm itself. There is a beautifully argued brief, which includes the arguments from Bruen, sent to the Court on July 27, 2022. Judge Welte ignores most of the arguments.

Now that he’s free of the anchor that his mother provided, he’s free to make a total tosser of himself with Global Warming, Agenda 30 and the WEF. So far it looks as if William hasn’t totally surrounded to the Globalist Agenda although he’s a ‘warmest’. Harry on the other hand openly shows his Masonic signals to the world and has completely swallowed the whole Globalist scam.

Just reading Murder in the 33rd Degree by Monsignor Charles Theodore Murr a Canuck who was at the centre of the whole shebang in the Vatican. He names names, and based it on the 3 year investigation into Masonic penetration of the highest levels of the Vatican bureaucracy by Archbishop Eduard Gagnon another Canuck who at the dying behest of Pail VI had done a total vault face when faced with eternity. Even so the results of the study were so terrible that Paul VI couldn’t handle it and postponed the publication of the study to the next pope, John Paul I who ‘died under very dodgy circumstances after just a month as Pope. His successor JPII deep fixed the study for years in the Vatican archives… until it’s now leaking out. The likes of Cardinal Villot the Secretary of State; Cardinal Baggio who ran the Congregation of Bishops and who got to choose who was being promoted to Bishop; Archbishop Bugnini who was instrumental in formulating the ‘so called new litiny for the ‘new mass’ and somehow got himself exiled to Iran to keep him out of the way; Arch-Bishop Paul Marcinkus who ran the Vatican bank and almost bankrupted it … and many other suspects, were IDed as covert Masons actively destroying the Church from within. Pope Frank is just the latest variation on the same theme.
Interesting read. I’d LOVE to get my hands on the 3 book set of the final report into Masonic influence inside the Vatican. The main 3 year diary of the investigations, The list of identified ‘players’ and the Executive Summary of the Report by the Apostolic Visitor Arch-Bishop Gagnon. His study remains buried in the Vatican’s archives awaiting a good Pope with the guts to release it openly, and clean the rancid rottenness remaining in the bureaucracy.
Such a ‘cleanup would see not just the long dead masonic cardinals and arch-bishops shamed and ejected from the Church. It would also cause ALL those who were Promoted and made priests illicit as those masons automatically excommunicated themselves by their masonic associations and therefore NOT priests and with no power to do anything inside the Church. That automatic excommunication effect would ripple throughout the Church for the past 50 years and many priests would find themselves having lived a lie for half a century or more where everything they had done was null and void. To san that this is significant is to grossly misunderstand what has happened since Vatican II.
Have you ever found a connection between the Masons and the KGB?

I’d think KGB membership in the masons would be a death sentence for the Russian? Some of the secret society activity in Russia withdrew to family traditions with the advent of the state apparatus. I’ve seen Napoleans Masonic ribbons in a museum. Apparently he was a secret society big wig. But that didn’t seem to help him much. He was the Donald Trump of his time.
I’ve skirted the edge of some of these groups and they have an over abundance of Utopian thinkers in them. People who don’t have a solid grip on the earth. The UN housed a lot of them.
The anti Catholic efforts seem to come out of the protestant/catholic wars.
I’d guess most Masons are protestants but France was the main home for Masons for a long time. At one time they were all Templars.
One thing for sure. No Buddhists allowed.
I can tell I live in a small town. Everyone says hi to each other as they walk around.
The big grocery store though only had about 20 cartoons of eggs on the shelves. First tine I have ever seen that.
The other oddity is that there are a lot of orange colored cars in town. They don’t look like ex Taxi cabs so must have been a midnight special at a dealership.

Absolutely correct. The European religious wars certainly germinated the new buds of the Masons in 1717 and by the mid 18th Century they were very well established within the European and North American context. Hell DC is built on Masonic symbolism so I can’t agree with you that they were just utopians. These people were elitists and doers. By the 1870s the 150 year battle for the heart of the Catholic Church was well underway. Popes even insisted that ALL religious swear an oath that they were never to associate with Masons, such was the direct threat. Canon law specifically stated that ANY association with the Masonic Order would cause the malefactor to be self excommunicated from the Church. Apparently by the 1930s there was an active plan instituted by Stalin to infiltrate 1,000 (reportedly 2,000?) covert communists into the Catholic priesthood. In 1953 one of the architects of this operation (Bella Dod) spilled the beans but she was not ‘officially’ believed as the infiltration had already reached the level of the Bishops. John XXIII was very strongly suspected of being a covert Mason as was PaulVI who seemed to change his mind when close to death. John Paul (the smiling Pope) died in suspicious circumstances with a know Mason the last person to see al apparently fit and well Pope alive. Autopsies were forbidden by a Vatican bureaucracy infested with masons and JP I was hurriedly buried.
Any movement that can keep strategic secrets for centuries can’t be considered a bunch of Utopians. These guys mean business and their timeframe stretches for lifetimes. Such is their covert resolve.

A lot of it is about the KGB infiltration of the Vatican. It’s a VERY turgid book, written from a European POV, starts with culture, etc. Heavy going, but worth it.
So my thinking is if the KGB and the Masons are both trying to infiltrate the Vatican – ???
We see the effects of the KGB success, Pope Frank is their screaming success, Liberation Theology in South/Central America, etc.
But does that make them the Masons’ friend or enemy? I don’t know what the Masons’ goal is.

I couldn’t say for sure. But I know the Masons trace themselves back to Egypt and the only way to do that was through the Templars. Most of those secret societies connected to Islamic mysticism through the Crusades. Which also intertwined kabbala. It’s a dim history with lots of charlatans and a few actual people.
The Templars were part of the church until they brought back money and power from the middle east. Interesting history on what all those kings did and how they worked with the church. Feudal society. The dark ages. the black plague. People used those secret societies to skirt power centers. It was sort of the internet of the enlightenment era.
There are cities in France that still have some old templar buildings. Lyon and Toulouse I think. Both places where a small number of the local population let me know they didn’t like Americans.

One of covert surveillance and control of every normal daily task, of total control of the populous via technology, that could only be imagined by Hitler or Stalin.

I had to look it up
theosophy, occult movement originating in the 19th century with roots that can be traced to ancient Gnosticism and Neoplatonism. The term theosophy, derived from the Greek theos (“god”) and sophia (“wisdom”), is generally understood to mean “divine wisdom.” Forms of this doctrine were held in antiquity by the Manichaeans, an Iranian dualist sect, and in the Middle Ages by two groups of dualist heretics, the Bogomils in Bulgaria and the Byzantine Empire and the Cathari in southern France and Italy. In modern times, theosophical views have been held by Rosicrucians and by speculative Freemasons. The international New Age movement of the 1970s and ’80s originated among independent theosophical groups in the United Kingdom.

They want the destruction of the total Catholic Church and have been hard at work for over 150 years.

They also want to replace the Church with an ‘Ape church’ that has the trappings of the Church but is a complete obverse mirror of the Church. Its true object is to create a world church to match the One World Government because it knows that mankind naturally craves the supernatural to fill a hole in the soul.

Oh, this is so delicious it makes my teeth ache. Don Lemon gets has ass schooled on slavery.
https://townhall.com/tipsheet/katiepavlich/2022/09/20/don-lemon-gets-a-reality-check-about-reparations-n2613332
Lemon is talking to a British ‘expert’, suggesting reparations might be part of the ‘conversation’ and tosses out some possible $ amounts. May God have mercy on his soul, because Hilary Forwich had none.
you always need to go back to the beginning of the supply chain. Where was the beginning of the supply chain? That was in Africa,” royal expert Hilary Forwich explained. “Across the entire world when slavery was taking place which was the First Nation in the world that abolished slavery? First Nation in the world to abolish it…was the British.”
“Two-thousand naval men died on the high seas trying to stop slavery. Why? Because the African kings were rounding up their own people. They had them on cages waiting in the beaches. No-one was running into Africa to get them,” she continued. “I think you’re totally right. If reparations need to be paid we need to go right back to the beginning of that supply chain and say, who was rounding up their own people and having them hang from cages. Absolutely, that’s where they should start. And maybe, I don’t know, the descendants of those families where they died in the high seas trying to stop the slavery, those families should receive something soon.”
I would also note – because I get frustrated with people behaving as tho slavery was introduced to the world by evil whites of western civilization – slavery has been part of civilization from the beginning.
Check the Old Testament. Sarah’s slave, Hagar, who she gave to her husband, Abraham in the hope they could conceive a son for Abraham. Hagar gave birth to Ishmael.
Then there was Cicero’s slave, Tiro. Tiro invented short hand, known as the Tironian Notes. It’s not the short hand we use today but there is an artifact that has survived. I believe it’s the ampersand (&) but it may be the @ sign, I forget.
Native Americans took slaves. Tecumseh’s mother was a Cherokee captured and enslaved by the Shawnee.
So let’s have the reparations conversation, shall we?

She did it all wrong – as did everyone else – and her education began.
It was Julia who showed me what a breeze omelettes really are. Once a week it’s my go-to dinner.

Electric stove tops need a skilled operator. The latency is a factor because of the mass of the heating element causes the heat source to respond slower than a gas source of heat.
Slow to become hot, slow to cool down.
Cooking on electric means unless you are just boiling potatoes you need to work on the cooking constantly.
I cook a lot of foreign shit here. I regulate the heat by moving a LIGHTWEIGHT skillet up and down over an electric heating element on full. Cherry red.
Gas has advantages. If you are on city gas then by all means buy a wok. If you live in the middle of nowhere and use propane then your woking experience is not as much fun.
Propane flames are a lower temperature than methane.
The biggest problem I have with sautéing and other high temperature cooking in my apartment is not setting the fucking smoke alarm off!
@ Possum:
Also the smoke alarms get angry if I use taco seasoning!
I could blend a banana, mango and taco seasoning cold milk shake and then get the BEEP BEEP fucking noise.
( I know, some alarms respond to particulates in the air, not just smoke )
But I understand. Cooking on a gas stove if the phone rings or you have to take a piss just turn the burner off and supper will survive.
Electric stove turn off the element, remove saucepan otherwise no matter how short the call or how fast you pee supper is ruined.

Julia did that too in the video. The burner wasn’t cherry red but she was constantly shaking the pan, be it onions, mushrooms, omelettes, etc.
If I did that the food would end up on the floor and 3 nanoseconds later in the Heathen Beagles’ tummies.
I just fold the omelette over with a silicone spatula
I used propane years ago when I lived in a trailer (now politely called ‘manufactured housing’). Quite frustrating. Took ages just to boil anything.
I’m fascinated by Aga stoves. They have these compartments where the heat level is different, covered burners, etc. The techniques are entirely different.
The stove I have now has a convection AND a steam function. The convection is fun, haven’t tried the steam yet. In convection mode you can choose to alter the temp or the time.

Garland signs agreement with Ukraine to investigate Russian war crimes
https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/news/justice/garland-agreement-ukraine-investigate-russian-war-crimes
Attorney General Merrick Garland signed a deal Tuesday with Ukraine’s top prosecutor to strengthen the ability of the United States when it comes to investigating Russian war crimes committed during the invasion.
Garland and Ukrainian Prosecutor General Andriy Kostin participated in the signing ceremony at Main Justice in Washington, D.C., on Tuesday.
The attorney general said the agreement would allow the U.S. and Ukraine “to work more expeditiously and efficiently in our respective investigations of war crimes.”
“America and the world have seen the horrific images and heart-wrenching reports of brutality and death caused by the unjust Russian invasion of Ukraine,” Garland said. “I reiterated to the Ukrainian prosecutor general the Justice Department’s commitment to standing with the people of Ukraine in the face of those horrors. In our meeting, we agreed that we will work together to pursue accountability for those who commit war crimes and other atrocities.”
Excuse me, since when is investigating war crimes in the DOJ’s remit? I’m SURE this has nothing to do with covering up crap that would lead to Hunter.
Somebody needs to ask this whore if he can spell ‘Azov Brigade’

It looks like DeSantis just pranked the entire MSM. After suggesting there might be a plane of illegals headed from Florida to Biden’s home state of Delaware – a town called Georgetown – reporters hightailed it to the airport and – nuthin’
But wait! Oh look over here!
Everyone who gathered Tuesday at a small airport in Georgetown, Delaware, near President Joe Biden’s home, was waiting in anticipation of a planeload of migrants to be flown from San Antonio as part of Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis’ program to send a message about illegal immigration.
But by late Tuesday, no plane had arrived. Instead, it landed in Teterboro, New Jersey, just outside New York City, where Biden was in town for the annual U.N. General Assembly meeting.
No migrants were aboard the plane.
Earlier in the day, DeSantis stoked the coals of speculation by declining to confirm or deny whether the plane would even take off — his administration later refused to say if the plane that landed in New Jersey was part of his program to relocate migrants — in an intentional effort to keep the issue alive, said a source familiar with the governor’s thinking who discussed the plans anonymously to speak candidly.
“He didn’t tell anyone and purposely left people in the dark. So technically the media, the Democrats, everyone got punked who decided to heed some s— on Twitter instead of waiting for confirmation from the governor’s office,” the source said. “The entire point of this is to put a spotlight on the border. It’s what the governor has said.”

@ eaglesoars:
I have found that using cast iron pans will work well with electric stove tops. Get it up to heat and then turn it right down and let the iron do the work. Anything else meals are a disaster.
@ PaladinPhil:
Good point. I have some cherished cast iron but I get tired of the maintenance. I prefer the enameled stuff. In the Julia Child video I watched, the chicken she had prepped was enameled
But she never pointed it out. One of her implements was an electric fryer. The only time she talked about what tool to use was in the omlette video. The measurement of the bottom of the pan and the slanted sides and the height of the sides. And that it was non-stick.
So one wonders – how were omlettes made before non-stick? As far as I can tell, Teflon hit in the early 60s?

Christmas. Mom opened her present from Dad. A suite of the new Teflon cookware.
Mom cried all day.
Dad knew he was in it deep. He asked me – ok, next year it has to be a fur coat or a diamond ring. Which is it?
Dad, where is she going to wear a fur coat? Diamonds are a girl’s best friend.
He knew a jeweler in Aliquippa who could make this stuff. Dad sent me out to local jewelers to figure out a design. Took it back to the Aliquippa jeweler.
Next Christmas Mom got a gorgeous diamond ring I helped design. I now wear it every day.
@ eaglesoars:
A good seasoned cast iron is non stick. I have my 10″ pan is at that stage. My 8″ is getting there.
Yeah, this is exactly who the Dems need to run in ‘24

Julia always tells you the heat level to use. She fricassed the chicken in an electric fryer and said the temp should be around 360. And the omelette video was in color

Nope. Nobody had access to the property and a great deal of wall moving had gone on before all of the ‘trouble’ started.
The house had been empty for 15 years with the owner, a widowed lady, being given a massive degree of grief by her family who wanted to get her out. They finally manipulated things and had her sent to a mental institution for 15 years but she refused to sell. Eventually after a judicial review she was released from the mental hospital and returned to her house. She died there 3 years later and my daughter purchased the property. We moved walls and created new rooms including a smaller kitchen and turned part of the original kitchen into a bedroom and writing annex. The kitchen was where all of the ‘action’ was happening, as well as the front bedroom where this poor lady died and lay undiscovered for weeks.
The kitchen and front bedroom were dodgy to say the least, hence the arrival of the exorcist as a last resort. Flying cutlery and draws flying across the kitchen was the least of the problems, and my daughter was attacked and attempted to be strangled and suffocated. The exorcist suggested that that may have been a well known explainable sleep problem that features a feeling of suffocation and total paralyses. Both normal explanations. The fact that these manifestations happened after my daughter had sex with her then boyfriend seemed to trigger these attacks long after he had left.
The flying knives though were a bit more difficult to explain away! Something was obviously pissed that the whole inside layout of the house had changed.

It would be interesting to know if the people you sold the house to have had any experiences.

The Amity Hill Horror was a made up story, too. Suddenly there were reports of hauntings everywhere.
I’m not syaing that nothing happened in any of the examples cited, just that I don’t believe the supernatural explanations. Don’t eat the rye bread and get checked for Lewy Body disease. 😀
