A den of malign sickness

I know there is a lot of sickness out on the web,  and I accidently ran across a particularly large concentration of it.  I you have a strong stomach,  and need a reminder of how we need to protect our Constitutional Rights,  check out the VPC Blog .

Earth Hour ,8 to 9 pm, local results

Posted by Greybeard on Mar 30th, 2008 in News and weather | Comments Off

I reset our outdoor lights not to come on until 9:30,  (They normally come on at 9pm,  ’cause this time of year, with DST, it doesn’t get partially dark until about 8:45pm)

We turned off the one light we had on in the kitchen,  at 7:55pm,  (almost full daylight),  and watched a pretty nice sunset.  It was just starting to get a little dim,  and we expected to see a bit of darkness before 9pm.  About 8:40,  just as the reddness of the sunset started to darken,  street lights,  popped on all across the river.  Then yard lights, everywhere.  (Not mine)   So we sat basking in the glow of mulitple organge vapor lights for the last 15 minutes of “Earth Hour”,  then turned on the DVR and watched a movie.

I’m thinking Earth hour,  wasn’t that well publicized in our neighborhood.

Ok,  Google has gone black to honor Earth Hour.   I suppose I can do the same.

Light’s out tonight between 8 and 9 Pm,  your time zone.

I can almost say “ICE OUT”

Not quite,  the AuGres is open out almost to the boat launch,  and looking pretty sick out to the mouth of the river.  Saginaw Bay is open water,  anywhere but the protected bay’s and harbors.  That 3/8  mile of mushy frozen river ice,  is all that prevents a clear run,,  river to Bay.  Now,  we wait for Walleye season to reopen, and my latest order of JLVLures should be here any day.

On Violence, Plus FITNA is out!

On Violence

At Boomer’s FITNA  or directly at Live Leak .

BUT,  YOU MIGHT NO LONGER FIND IT AT LIVE LEAK,  BECAUSE “Even though they believe in FREEDOM,  the COST was to high .  This could be easily rectified,  by showing the 16 minute film on Live Local News.  (like when pig’s fly,  or it rains money)   Nice job  Live Leak. 

FITNA is a film by Dutch politician Geert Wilders, documenting the horror currently in the making in Holland.  It is not for children, and as Glenn put’s it,  “This film is for adults, not for children. It is extremely graphic and portrays extreme violence, the violence of Muslim Extremists. “ 

Watch it, pass it on,  “teach your children well, and keep a  gun and ammunition by the doorway”.  A quote from “Mike and the Mechanics”
