"We were barely 17 and we were barely dressed..."

I saw this last night and I'm just going to drop it here.

"Baseball??? WTH?"

Another f*cking continuing resolution?

When was the last time congress passed a real- on time budget?

Oh- 1997.

But at least the .GOV won't be partially shut down because there's a partial payment resolution...again.

And speaking of useless air breathers- McConnel is going to stay on as minority leader till January, so he can help his buddy Schumer run interference on the Mayorcas trial.

A number of my readers have been in the military

Or know of know people who have been.
And FB has these "real life" ads/sites that tell about ....whatever.

This one is just like that with hardly realistic tales. Especially if you' been there.

Some of them, okay and probably realistic, but if you drill down on #49 you'll know that one is complete BullShit.
Because Officers have their own bars and so do senior and junior enlisteds...... especially in the Navy.

Of COURSE it doesn't make sense

 Unless you know that both fake bombs at the RNC and DNC were planted there because of the planned "insurrection" they started at the Capital building to frame Trump.

They used cell data to go after anyone (except the plants) who was anywhere near their even now, and they're even going after people who never went inside.

BUT the same FBI who's railroading citizens have shown exactly ZERO interest in looking at phone records  from the guy who was seen waiving at cops after he dropped off his diversion.

Because he was a Fed.

 Anyone with more than two brain cells should have known that as soon as they heard about those fake bombs.

Adding to the fact that there was almost complete radio silence from the people lying about J-6.
The FBI is using phone records to wage lawfare on anyone who was anywhere near the Capitol, bu they can't get phone data from the guy who was told to plant those fake bombs.

We now have bacon

 Pork shoulder/Buckboard bacon on the left and Pork Loin/Canadian bacon on the right.

I couldn't get a constant cool enough heat in the grill I was going to use as the smoker, so I added liquid smoke for a day and a half and backed them at 200 for about 3 1/2 hours.

Next time, I'm going to add brown sugar to the cure because the pork shoulder that I didn't use sugar on is kinds...meh.
The Canadian bacon really works, though.

Will do again. And it's a lot cheaper than store-bought bacon.
Next time I'll try some beef bacon.

More true now than when he first sang it

So, when will we ever see an Arc light strike?

 Probably never.

Because #theadultsarebackincharge are afraid to make terrorists hate us even more.
So we'll just keep and waste million Dollar missile on $10,000 drones and keep "retaliating" with little pin pricks on empty tents and small arms stockpiles.

And gas went up .10 in less than 12 hours yesterday.
I don't like Trump, but he put the fear of God in a lot of countries and I can live with that.

Larry Correia puts it much better than I can.

And these three comments reiterate the whole Trumpkin mindset.
I don't like him, but I'll vote for him.
What are you Trumpkins going to do in 2028?

 

About diehard Trump supporters and I'm wondering if you'd even think about supporting the only electable Conservative in 2028 after your hero got you to be all hating on Desantis.

In its entirety:

Seriously, Trumpkins, listen. Regular boring conservatives like me have already said we’ll vote for Trump in the general now that we’re stuck with him because of your hubris. It doesn’t help for you to keep barking at me about how I should deny reality and blow smoke up peoples’ asses about how awesome your guy was and will be. 

Sorry, I’m not a revisionist history ass kisser with memory issues like you guys. It doesn’t do you any good to yell at people who actually paid attention to this shit while it was happening. Besides, I think they’re our employees, not our fucking monarchs, so all this one way loyalty shit you keep going off about makes me want to barf. 

But people like me ain’t your problem. Every R in America could go full Trump Train and we’re still gonna get fucking trounced in the general unless you somehow convince purple swing state Americans in the suburbs that Trump is all that great stuff MAGA believes about him. Which the last few elections have demonstrated they clearly don’t, they kinda hate his guts, and that’s even before he’s a convicted felon, so good luck with that. 

Meanwhile, the rest of us who actually believe in archaic shit like “principles” have been getting mooed at all day to UNITE by a bunch of fucking herd animals, because apparently now we’re all supposed to shut off our fucking brains off and piss away our dignity and buy in on Laura Loomer’s latest batshit fucking crazy conspiracy theory about the Atlantic using numerology to call for assassinations or the Cobra Weather Dominator or some shit, or we are traitors who hate America. 

Anyways good luck convincing those swing state soccer moms! I’m just gonna be over here stockpiling more canned food and ammo awaiting the apocalypse. Then in November I’ll vote for Trump, and when we get fucking rolled because we were dumb enough to walk into the democrat’s obvious trap, I’ll try to resist the urge to say I told you so. 

I’d love to be wrong, and in the off chance Trump wins, I’ll congratulate you for your prescient wisdom, and look forward to four years of Trump hiring more incompetent swampy ass kissers, while keeping my fingers crossed for more decent SCOTUS appointments. 

So you get off my fucking back now. 🙂

Anyone who was old enough to remember the environmental scares of the '79s and '80's

 

 HAS to remember some of these environmental alarms.

-The Ozone Hole (bekuzz hair spray)

-Acid Rain (Bekuzz air pollution)

- Water shortages (bekauzz....reasons) and how we HAVE to act now to preserve drinking water!

 

And now the same scientists are actually working on destroying water on it's atomic level.

.....But now I guess it's okay because we have low flow faucets and water saving toilets and SCIENCE and sh1t.

After a week of curing

 I really expected a lot more liquid.
The pork loin/Canadian bacon has some.

On #1 I cut the seal and added liquid Hickory smoke- because that's what I had. It kinda glugged in there, so I think it's going to be on the strong side.

The but/shoulder is dry.
I don't know if that's because I had it out and ready then resealed it in a vacuum bag because I needed a two digit read on the scale and couldn't use the one in the kitchen

I mean it's dry. 

The colors aren't as far apart as the camera makes it look, but I'll be hot smoking it then refrigerating part and freezing part, so I doubt there's that much wrong with it besides maybe taste.

So it begins

 Making bacon.

 After I finally got a digital scale that goes to two digits for the Prague #1 powder.
The first one is a Butt/shoulder  that hopefully will result in Buckboard bacon after I smoke it.

The other attempt is two pork loins of about four pounds each to hopefully get Canadian bacon out of it.

I had to wait for the scales because you don't want to use too much Prague powder/pink cure or whatever else you want to call it. luckily there's a  page for that.

On the second one I put in for 14 days- I'm going to try adding some liquid smoke and seal it back up, then finish it in the oven to see if there's any real difference between real smoke and liquid.

And yes I noticed the trigger discipline.

The big one below the fold~

So SecDef Lloyed Austin was in the ICU for four days

 Before the Pentagon decided to let the White House know.

So we have Miley (who's probably still trying to find 'white rage') telling his ChiCom buddies that he'll give them a heads-up if his CiC decides to do something he disagrees with.

Now the Secretary of Defense was in the ICU for four days -and still in the hospital- before the Pentagon decided to let anyone in the White House know about it.

Maybe the danger to our Republick isn't Trump, MAGA, J-6ers or patriots- maybe it's a rouge DoD that thinks their chain of command only works when they want it to.

Weather fo New Years Ev.

 Is NOAA being unintentionally ironic?
Or do they know fireworks will be going off around then?

For a little background

 The wife's a Brit who's lived in Texas for a good 20 years.

I've been fighting some intestinal thing for the past couple of days- and not eating.

We had to fill two 10 gallon propane tanks at Tractor Supply.  After loading them and securing them in the truck (and waiting for some dickhead who had up parked in) we were on the way home.

I told the wife that I'm sweating like a whore in church.
"A What????"

A whore in church, you've never heard that before?

She's also never heard 

• Telling how the cow ate the cabbage.
• Loose as a boiled onion. He's as slippery as a baked onion.
  
• All hat and no cattle
• Why buy the cow when you can get the milk for free?
• Crooked as a dogs hind leg
• Better throw some slop to them dogs
