could be good news?
_____________________________
This is the last kitten week. I’m planning on skipping a few social outings that take several hours each and staying home as much as possible so they can play together. I th5they get separated at the shelter/foster for their personality assessments. They love coming in the house and play7with everything. Bits of paper, straws, and anything stolen are the current favorites (not the cat toys).
Cute!
I love that!
Thank you for that feast Lysie!
Happy Father’s Day exit.
I haven’t fact checked this
—————————
The US standard railroad gauge (distance between the rails) is 4 feet, 8.5 inches. That’s an exceedingly odd number. Why was that gauge used? Well, because that’s the way they built them in England, and English engineers designed the first US railroads. Why did the English build them like that? Because the first rail lines were built by the same people who built the wagon tramways, and that’s the gauge they used. So, why did ‘they’ use that gauge then? Because the people who built the tramways used the same jigs and tools that they had used for building wagons, which used that same wheel spacing. Why did the wagons have that particular odd wheel spacing? Well, if they tried to use any other spacing, the wagon wheels would break more often on some of the old, long distance roads in England . You see, that’s the spacing of the wheel ruts. So who built those old rutted roads? Imperial Rome built the first long distance roads in Europe (including England ) for their legions. Those roads have been used ever since. And what about the ruts in the roads? Roman war chariots formed the initial ruts, which everyone else had to match or run the risk of destroying their wagon wheels. Since the chariots were made for Imperial Rome , they were all alike in the matter of wheel spacing. Therefore the United States standard railroad gauge of 4 feet, 8.5 inches is derived from the original specifications for an Imperial Roman war chariot. Bureaucracies live forever. So the next time you are handed a specification/procedure/process and wonder ‘What horse’s as came up with this?’, you may be exactly right. Imperial Roman army chariots were made just wide enough to accommodate the rear ends of two war horses. (Two horses’ ases.)  Now, the twist to the story: When you see a Space Shuttle sitting on its launch pad, there are two big booster rockets attached to the sides of the main fuel tank. These are solid rocket boosters, or SRBs. The SRBs are made by Thiokol at their factory in Utah . The engineers who designed the SRBs would have preferred to make them a bit fatter, but the SRBs had to be shipped by train from the factory to the launch site. The railroad line from the factory happens to run through a tunnel in the mountains, and the SRBs had to fit through that tunnel. The tunnel is slightly wider than the railroad track, and the railroad track, as you now know, is about as wide as two horses’ behinds. So, a major Space Shuttle design feature, of what is arguably the world’s most advanced transportation system, was determined over two thousand years ago by the width of a horse’s as. And you thought being a horse’s as wasn’t important? Ancient horse’s as*es control almost everything. 😁😁
Good morning, CB!
Sounds like a good plan to spend as much time with your sweet kitties as possible this week.
It is going to be a sad parting but you have done a terrific job of getting these cuties ready for a forever home.

This guy is sounding a warning....
‼️Ya might want to listen to this video since multiple sources have confirmed
💥Take it with a grain of salt but be prepared for anything. Told you the next couple weeks will be spicy 🔥
💥250 cities worldwide held on cyber ransom, massive cyberattacks imminent.

Ha! Thanks for that very interesting history, CB.
And, modern horses @sses are controlling everything, today!
Enjoy the precious kittens, CB.

I have taken notes if you need them. Watch video.
Major cyber attack.
Infrastructure/financial system.
Marshall law.
Get food and supplies in as Q has told us.
As I said I will post my notes of needed because of hearing impared.

250 cities worldwide held on cyber ransom, massive cyberattacks imminent.
Possible blackout with lockdown or light martial law
Exact timeframe and severity unknown but expected in the next couple weeks.
Everything we’ve thought would happen the last couple years and we’ve been prepared for…this is it
🇺🇸 Patriots will know what to do and how to handle the situation. Normies won’t know what hit them, they won’t know what to do or know what’s next
Be kind and help others
Hmm, lines up with my timeframe. Who woulda thunk it
That’s very interesting, thanks for posting.

If you’re labeled a conspiracy theorists or someone who spreads misinformation by the Left.
Take it to the bank - you’re telling the 100% truth and they’re trying to shut you up.
Rand Paul on with Maria. Exposing covid lab leak.
Rand said that, in 2012, Fauci said that the gain of function research was so important, if it did cause a pandemic, it was worth the knowledge.
Rand Paul will stay on this like a rabid dog, exposing them all.
The COVID lab leak was an act of war!
Thanks...good idea.
