Well, it’s all fun and games until someone puts an eye out, or until someone just up and blows up the game.
The predictable fun is over. A bunch of rebel Finnians just disrupted the very predictable vodka game. Poland or Russia? Potato or wheat? BLAH BLAH BLAH!
Well then, UP THE REPUBLIC!
I am both shocked and somewhat satisfied that a small batch whiskey crew made in the west of Ireland even got to get a consideration to be in THE DREADED CHALLENGE at our place. The Dreaded Challenge is a simple, multiple blind test. We don’t do this if either of us has to work in the morning or that we think that the vodka in question is even worth testing.
New vodka in the house that is even accepted (fail is relegated to mixes and not bought again) is taken in small sips at cellar temp V Stoli, v Reka, V Tito’s V snow queen. Now, mind yinz, Mrs Coldwarrior was completely gobsmacked when Tito’s won over even some really over the top Russian stuff a few years ago.
Fail: Rain (organic shit, the worst vodka ever,) I cant’t remember the name of the other crap, i used it to make vodka sauce and an infusion. But I digress.
Both of us dutifully tested each other with 4+1 Vodkas. Reka, Snow Queen, Tito’s, Stoli, versus the Straw Boys. One test was before dinner, one after. Yinz will notice that I haven’t included any ’boutique’ brands…Chriraq, Skullz, well, we aren’t rap stars or comedians with a brand to sell.
Anyway.
Vodka is simple. it’s not hard, make a grain neutral spirit that feels good on the palate. And that’s the rub. It’s a tricky thing, potato, rye, wheat…rice…yep…rice..Haku from Suntory, rice vodka that, while smooth, has a fun Saki kick. Didn’t make the Dreaded Challenge but is always on hand.
Anyone reading closely eyeballed Snow Queen…it’s a long story and one of the best bottles of booze in the wold.
End results: The Finnians beat everyone in 4 blind tastes over two days.
Night Yinz!

Even up to yesterday the reports were he “may have permanent brain damage” which is a big DUH. Aside from Cardillo I see nothing about “brain dead”. Cardillo apparently likes to drop twitter bombs and walk away. As for the wife and kids, supposedly they were getting death threats or something and left for Canada.

Maybe it sets a bad precedent to do something like that. Can’t do it every time there is a disaster in a crowded country. Can’t do it for a large area. And makes politicians think they can mass move populations to solve issues.

There is a proliferation of U.S.-funded, supposedly free journalism organizations and training courses linked to various left-wing opposition newspapers in Hungary, according to the Hungarian civil rights group, Tűzfalcsoprt (Firewall Group).
One of the largest foreign-funded press outlets — news portal Telex — has recently announced that it is launching a training program funded by the U.S. government called Telex Academy, to supposedly train young people and teachers in independent, objective journalism. The Telex Academy project is led by three Hungarian journalists who all work for opposition media.

Harry has been a Counsellor for some time.
Well, it turns out that one of the rules is you actually have to have a domicile in the UK. With the eviction from Frogmore, Harry’s only home is the U.S. So, buh bye to the Counsellor role.
This will also change his visa status and his tax situation and from what I’m reading, not for the better.

I’m looking at air fryers. This is an amazon review for a ninja air fryer which is the funniest thing I’ve read in years.
Wow, this thing is great. So, we finally broke down and got an air fryer. I read the reviews and for the money this Ninja one looked like the best deal. Let me tell you something this thing is great. So, it cooks faster than an oven but probably slower than deep frying. It produces crisp, good tasting food that is almost as good as fried.
As a fatty I got to say I love my fried food. The air fryer tastes much better than baked and better for you than fried. I mean I can tell a difference now, don’t get me wrong. It is not going to taste like French fries deep fried in lard, but its close.
I decide I am going to make hot wings. Good idea, right? Well the first batch came out great. Even better than fried because they were a bit crispier. So, I decide I want to have a glass of wine while I cooked. This was my first mistake. God, I wished I had just went with whiskey. So, I insert the corkscrew into the cork and pop, it broke. Oh well, I thought let’s see what the internet has to offer on alternative methods of wine bottle opening.
The first option is to screw a screw into the cork then pry it out using the screw as a lever. Well, I can’t do that because the corkscrew is broken off into the cork. The second option said to use a lighter to heat but the air in the neck of the bottle and the cork will rise out. The third option was to place the bottle in a shoe to not break the glass. Then smack the shoe against a wall. I went with option two. Note this was my second mistake.
So, I break out the old lighter and start heating the glass up. Mind you I am also flipping my chicken wings in the air fryer while starting to heat up some hot sauce and other ingredients on the stove for my buffalo sauce. I decided I needed help so enlisted my 18-year child to hold the lighter up to the glass while I cooked. No good, this trick isn’t working.
I tell him he can stop we are going to go with option three, the shoe. Here comes the third mistake. I grabbed the bottle. Yep you read that right I bare handed the bottle that I had ben applying a direct flame to for over 5 minutes. To top it off I grabbed the neck. This resulted in the most pain I have ever felt in my entire life. This is the pain Atreyu felt when Artax sunk in the swamp of sadness. This was the pain worse than 10 kicks to the balls. This was real pain. Kidney stones have nothing on my hand at this moment. I was done. My hand felt like it had melted to the bottle.
Remember my son that I had help me? Well he is still there, and I must look like a man so I can’t cry, but boy did I want to cry. I haven’t wanted to cry this bad sense I watched “Ole yeller”. Despite the pain and fighting back tears. I managed to place the bottle in my shoe and set it on the table. I am still wanted to try that trick.
I then went into first aid mode, hand in the sink water running, ahhhh sweet relief. Unfortunately, that was not to last. The cool water only did so much. I decided burn creme would work. Nope don’t have any. Back to the water. Perhaps some ice. Ahhh flip the wings, run the water, check the sauce wait ….
The pot isn’t simmering. Why is the cutting board on the stove look funny? Yep mistake four here I come. I turned on the wrong burner and now my plastic cutting board has turned to liquid on my stove. Hand back in water again. I then retrieve my putty knife to scrape the stove clean. This causes wisps of plastic string to go from the stove to the sink. Hand goes back into the water.
At some point my son decides to wake the wife. Did I mention this was at about 1 am? She come into the kitchen and sees me. With one shoe one, a bottle of wine on the table inserted into my shoe. Note she mentions that is the shoe I walk into bathrooms in and its on her table. She then notices the burnt cutting board and an abundance of melted plastic in the sink. She then simply asks “hot wings hu?”
She is a god wife and wants me to go to the hospital for my possible 3rd degree burns on my hand but me, being a man, I decide I can tuff it out. She ends up getting me more ice and leaving my son in charge to go back to bed once she understands I am not budging on the whole doctor thing.
Anyway, in conclusion the hot wings were the best I have ever made. Although eating them one handed was a bit of a chore. I stayed up all night in pain and now I am out of ice. I never did open that bottle of wine. Also, that air fryer rocks.

It’s Time To Admit It: EVs Are EVIL
It’s Time To Admit It: EVs Are EVIL
Here’s one recent bit of evidence. A Bloomberg investigation found that the aluminum Ford is using to build its “eco-friendly” EV pickup comes from Brazil.
“There, in the heart of the Amazon, rust-colored bauxite is being clawed from a mine that has long faced allegations of pollution and land appropriation,” it found. A class action lawsuit against the mining company accuses it of polluting the water, causing cancer, hair loss, neurological dysfunction, birth defects, and increased mortality.
While all cars use aluminum to cut pounds, EVs use far more to offset the enormous weight of the batteries themselves.
“For consumers seeking to lower their carbon footprints, the environmental and social costs of electric vehicles may be greater than they realize,” Bloomberg says.
No kidding.
Here’s the dirty, rotten truth about EVs.
EVs aren’t “zero emissions” vehicles. All an EV does is shift the emissions elsewhere — namely, over to gigantic monopoly power companies that burn natural gas, coal, garbage or, horror of horrors, employ nuclear fission. Plus, making electric cars releases far more CO2 than is emitted in the production of conventional cars.
EV enthusiasts say these aren’t problems because over its lifetime, an EV will produce fewer total CO2 emissions.

EV enthusiasts say these aren’t problems because over its lifetime, an EV will produce fewer total CO2 emissions.
But that claim depends on a wide range of variables — such as the range of an EV, how long the batteries last, the energy source used to produce electricity, etc. — that can dramatically affect the EV’s carbon-cutting picture.
One study by the University of Michigan found that EVs can emit more CO2 than conventional cars. It said that depending on the fuel used by power plants in a given area, an EV can produce as much CO2 as a gas-powered car that gets just 29 miles per gallon.
EVs aren’t cheaper to operate. Another selling point of EVs is supposed to be that, while they are far more expensive to buy, they are cheaper to drive. But that depends entirely on the relative cost of electricity and gasoline.

There was a BBQ debate on Mary Katherine Ham’s podcasts. It was focused on the Carolinas. Apparently there is a sweet BBQ method and a sour one. East Carolina likes to use vinegar as their BBQ base whereas North Carolina does not. MKH favors the sour but from a particular family restaurant as apparently some sour BBQ is better than other.

Went back into house looking for Georgie and a cat appeared from under the bed to help me look.
Um, cat I was asking where Georgie was turns out to have been Georgie. Hence the loud replies LOL

Fauci Wanted Universal Human Separation Forever
Under his plan, we would have had lockdowns forever. In that sense, the vaccine at least represented a possible emancipation from the permanent prison-like conditions that Fauci was imagining at the time. And this is truly how the narrative turned out: lockdowns to end the pandemic, masks to stop the lockdowns, and vaccines to stop the masks. Of course nothing worked but each stage provided a test of compliance.

Fauci earned nearly $1 million from foreign non-profit organizations, including the Israel-based Dan David Foundation, which gave him $901,400 for “speaking truth to power” and “defending science” while working in the Trump administration, OpenTheBooks reported.

ATTORNEY GENERAL SEEKS TO MAKE WASHINGTON THE FIRST STATE WITH POLITICAL PRISONS
https://libertysentinel.org/attorney-general-seeks-to-make-washington-the-first-state-with-political-prisons
Washington’s Democrat Attorney General, Bob Ferguson, wants to be governor. He thinks the best way to accomplish his goal is to build gulags & psych hospitals, much like in Soviet Russia, and populate them with Christians, Conservatives and Republicans. If House Bill 1333 passes and Democrat Governor Jay Inslee signs it (he will), Ferguson’s office will have the power to arrest and/or civilly commit anyone for uttering “wrong” facts. This is a terrifying plan to redefine “domestic terrorism” to punish “conservative” speech.
Ferguson seems especially afraid of “older” Americans because they have more knowledge of and respect for the Bill of Rights THAT EXISTS IN NO OTHER COUNTRY ON EARTH: “What can we do to prevent the radicalization of folks who are a bit older, in their 40s, their 50s, their 60s? And help them to get out of that if they are radicalized.” He mentioned forced counseling
The AG defines “domestic violence extremism” as much more than real, blood-in-the-streets violence. Ferguson includes “online disinformation” and “anti-government ideologies” as examples of the “domestic violence extremism” they want to criminalize. Actually, street violence is acceptable under this bill, so long as it is committed by thugs pushing a Marxist agenda.
Ferguson’s office claims conservative views, or anything he deems as “misinformation,” are examples of “domestic extremism.” He also wants to create a Washington State version of Biden’s Ministry of Truth to fund journalists to push his political agenda. [Oregon has pending legislation to pay newspapers for pushing left-wing propaganda.]
HB 1333 would create a Domestic Violent Extremism Commission in the AG’s office, staffed only with Democrats, Liberals, Progressives, Socialists, Communists and Marxists. The members will recommend legislative “solutions to combat disinformation and misinformation, address early signs of radicalization, and develop a public health-style response.”

The ever-entertaining EU
Heat pump makers worried by EU crackdown on climate-warming F-gases [‘F gases’?]
The European Parliament’s environment committee voted on Wednesday (1 March) for a quick phasedown of F-gas refrigerants, in a move that drew criticism from the heat pump industry.
Fluorinated gases were introduced in the 1990s to replace the ozone-wrecking “Hydrochlorofluorocarbons” (HCFCs) and are commonly used in cooling appliances like refrigerators and air conditioning systems.
The problem, however, is that F-gases wreak havoc on the climate and amount to an estimated 2.5% of the EU’s greenhouse gas emissions.
“F-gases are not well-known, but have major implications for our climate, as they are very powerful greenhouse gases,” explained Bas Eickhout, a Dutch lawmaker who steers the EU’s proposed F-gas regulation in the European Parliament.

The Fugee, the Fugitive and the FBI How rapper Pras Michél got entangled in one of the century’s great financial scandals, mediated a high-stakes negotiation between global superpowers and was accused of major crimes.
This is Bloomberg reporting, not some web scandal monger
https://www.bloomberg.com/features/2023-us-china-tensions-scandal-fugees-1mdb/#xj4y7vzkg
Soon a short, chubby man with wavy hair arrived, surrounded by more security personnel. Michél had met him before. He was Sun Lijun, China’s vice minister of public security. Sun began shouting in Chinese. An interpreter translated for Michél: “Who the f— do the US government think they are?”
Sun said he’d come to the US for sensitive negotiations with President Donald Trump’s administration but had failed to secure a high-level meeting. For three years, Beijing had been targeting Chinese nationals living in America who it viewed as threats. Agents had surveilled emigrés, visited their houses and detained family members still in China, aiming to persuade the targets to return home, where some would be charged with serious crimes. Called “Operation Fox Hunt,” the covert repatriation strategy had infuriated US officials.

Mark Mobius, a pioneer in emerging markets investing, said China is restricting investment outflows from the country, a move that would be taking place as the world’s second-largest economy is trying to shake off pressure from COVID-19 lockdowns.
“I’m personally affected because I have an account with HSBC in Shanghai. I can’t get my money out. The government is restricting the flow of money out of the country,” Mobius said on Thursday on the Fox Business show “Mornings with Maria”. “So I would be very, very careful investing in China,” the founder of Mobius Capital Partners said.
Mobius, who has spent decades traveling the world searching for investment opportunities, said he hasn’t been able to get an explanation about why he’s running into the restrictions in China.
“It’s just amazing. They’re putting all kinds of barriers,” he said. “They don’t say, ‘No, you can’t get your money out,’ but they say, ‘Give us all the records from 20 years of how you’ve made this money,’ and so forth. It’s crazy.”

The way we eat could add nearly 1 degree of warming by 2100
https://www.channelnewsasia.com/sustainability/way-we-eat-could-add-nearly-1-degree-warming-2100-3329231
Greenhouse gas emissions from the way humans produce and consume food could add nearly 1 degree of warming to the Earth’s climate by 2100, according to a new study.
Continuing the dietary patterns of today will push the planet past the 1.5 degrees Celsius limit of warming sought under the Paris climate agreement to avoid the worst effects of climate change, according to the study published Monday (Mar 6) in Nature Climate Change, and will approach the agreement’s limit of 2 degrees Celsius.
The modelling study found that the majority of greenhouse gas emissions come from three major sources: Meat from animals like cows, sheep and goats; dairy; and rice. Those three sources account for at least 19 per cent each of food’s contribution to a warming planet, according to the study, with meat contributing the most, at 33 per cent.
All emit large amounts of methane, a potent greenhouse gas with more than 80 times the warming power of carbon dioxide, in the way they are currently farmed. The researchers calculated that methane will account for 75 per cent of food’s share of warming by 2030, with carbon dioxide and nitrous oxide accounting for most of the rest.

This is a coup model just like in Ukraine. You push all the people out or you kill them. You have war conditions so you can pick everything up cheap. You can do this with government money to ‘help’ Ukraine. No, it is government money to help the insiders to buy Ukraine, control Ukraine, own Ukraine.

Compare that to amount of methane emitted by the Amazon jungles. Then compare the amount of methane emitted by the oceans. Then fuck off with this manmade global warming bullshit.

But you’d think if an average guy like me sees problems with the phrasing, so should the politician and their well paid staff.

Got an update on my renewal of Green Card.
Decision will be made within two months. A bit better than the original estimate of 20.4 months.
Um, oh no! That may mean they will kick my skinny white ass out of the country in June 2023 instead of sometime in 2025!

I wasn’t sure if I was going this year, but that’s going to be hard to pass up.
Cat update, it is Spring here and tree seedlings are sprouting on the balcony amongst the dead leaves and stuff. Cats are going nuts and eating the fresh green sprouts! Stopped them because don’t know if the tree seedlings are poisonous,
So, I spent $13 at Amazon and got a cat grass growing kit. Dirt, a cute pot and oat and grass seeds. Worked well, within five days green and delicious leafy stuff is about three inches high! I care for my cats.
Cats just look at it and walk past it sideways with their tails all fluffy and in the air as if it is a space alien starship that landed.
Fucking cats….

This place is like a theme park for dogs. It has a dog park, a dog beach on the Colorado River, and 14 miles of hiking trails. Cody’s not going to want to leave
@ lobo91:

I keep expecting to see refugees swimming across the river, since California is about 100 yards away

FBI worked secretly with hospitals to strip US citizens’ gun rights, documents show
https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/restoring-america/fairness-justice/fbi-worked-secretly-with-medical-centers-to-strip-americans-gun-rights
The FBI coordinated secretly with hospitals and medical centers to strip U.S. citizens of their rights to own, buy, or even use firearms , according to a trove of internal documents obtained by the Washington Examiner.
.
.
Between 2016 and 2019, the FBI presented forms to U.S. citizens at their homes and in other undisclosed locations that registered them with the bureau’s National Instant Criminal Background Check System, the Washington Examiner previously reported . Newly obtained records, however, date the FBI’s usage of the form back to 2011.
Signatories of the internal forms were asked to voluntarily identify as a “danger” to themselves or others, as well as lacking the “mental capacity adequately to contract” their lives. The very existence of the FBI’s forms has raised significant concerns among First Amendment lawyers and members of Congress, including Sen. Marsha Blackburn (R-TN), House Judiciary Chairman Jim Jordan (R-OH), and Reps. Dan Bishop (R-NC) and Andrew Clyde (R-GA).
Well, just got off the phone with my ” Financial advisor ” I think they have to talk to me once every three months by law or something.
Got my ass kicked again for not giving them details of the beneficiary of my vast fortune ( joke ) and not having a will.
Can I just make a will giving all my worldly goods and cats to some unsuspecting person and not tell them?
LOL deadline is June. Um not for me passing into the afterlife, just giving financial people something.
Any volunteers? The burial part is easy, just rent a backhoe and find a secluded spot somewhere in Texas.
