No, the Chinese restaurant was closed that day for lack of staff. My head cleared up fairly well, then came the stomach problems. I can’t think of anything I ate to make me sick. Didn’t have much of an appetite yesterday which is unusual for me.
I’m still sipping water, afraid to drink coffee yet. And I’m so tired, didn’t get much sleep.
What a rotten week for me.

I caught a little bit of Matt on the radio this morning talking about this children’s book, “Johhny the Walrus” and it is so spot on in pointing out just how stupid the left is in this crusade to subvert our children.
Have you heard the women talking to her 4 year old boy who says he is 7 and a girl that day?
Mom corrects him on being 7 but she promotes him being a girl.
It is just sick!
Matt pointed out that one day the boy will be 7 but he will never be a girl.
Biden bragging that he’s done more for economy than any other President in their first year.
I can only hope that Kathy Hoffman is voted out of office in 2022 when her term is up.
One of the 1st things she did in office was appoint a Superintendent of Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion.
We know what that means, CRT.
I have been retired 3 years and I am sure that even in our little community this CRT is being pushed.
Though when I tutored, the 2 years before COVID hit, in 2nd grade and Kindergarten, I didn’t hear any CRT being taught.
The next time I go to lunch with the people I used to work with I am going to bring up CRT.
Drink as much water as you possibly can to stay hydrated.
A lesson my hubby learned the hard way.
Hope you get some sleep today and get over this “bug” you have.
I see Bye-done is now doing standup comedy!
How the FBI Downplays Leftist Terror Activity
By Kyle Shideler December 2, 2021
FTA:
Pro-Antifa social media accounts are taking a victory lap this week following the announcement that the FBI has ruled out a political motive in the 2019 Dayton, Ohio mass murder of nine people, carried out by Antifa supporter Connor Betts. One of the victims was Betts’ sister.
Betts interacted with multiple Antifa-aligned accounts online, including the Socialist Rifle Association (SRA), a Marxist group whose members commonly provide armed support during Antifa actions. Betts himself attended Antifa protests while armed, and made statements calling for killing “every fascist” and urged his comrades to “arm, train, prepare” to oust Trump from office, according evidence unearthed by Andy Ngo, a journalist with a long history of covering Antifa violence. Betts can also be seen in images wearing Satanist and anarchist patches. Betts, dressed all in black and wearing a mask, opened fire on a crowd outside the “traditional western-themed bar” Ned Peppers, before being killed by police.
The FBI appears to have taken none of these known facts into account when it determined:
“The evidence from the extensive investigation indicated the perpetrator, Connor Betts, was solely responsible for the injuries and deaths that were a result of his actions. He acted alone and was not directed by any organization or aligned to any specific ideological group.”
The FBI instead emphasizes Betts’ apparent fascination with mass shootings of all types, even non-ideological ones, and highlights mental health issues, including obsessive compulsive disorder. It has nothing to say about the death of Betts’ sister either, or whether Betts was aware of his sister’s presence in the crowd.
It may be reasonable to say that Betts was not directed by any organization, though this is scarcely necessary for politically motivated terrorism in the 21st century. As has been the case, for example, among Islamic State terrorists, individuals often conduct attacks they know will win the accolades of members of groups with whom they are aligned, even though they may not have received direct orders.
Betts for example publicly uttered his approval of the attack conducted by armed Antifa member Willem van Spronsen, targeting a Tacoma-area Immigration and Customs Enforcement facility, only one month before Betts’ own shooting spree, calling Spronsen “a martyr.” It is worth asking whether Betts may reasonably have believed his own attack would be regarded in a similar manner by people he interacted with online.
It is also not clear if the FBI developed an extensive understanding of Betts’ nonpublic contacts, as it had struggled to acquire access to one of Betts’ many cell phones. Antifa is known to be heavily security-conscious and to use encrypted communications and “burner” phones.
Regardless, evidence that Betts aligned himself with ideological “anti-fascists” is uncontrivable and easily available. Unfortunately, the willingness of the FBI to blatantly ignore publicly available information about a perpetrator’s political motivations is equally well known. The FBI outraged congressional Republicans when it failed to identify progressive activist James Hodgkinson, who opened fire on Republican lawmakers during a practice for the congressional baseball game in 2017, as politically motivated, instead labelling his attack as a “suicide by cop.”

Thanks. Did your hubby get dehydrated? I haven’t had a stomach bug or poisoning in so long I forgot haw miserable it is. I’m sipping coffee now, so far so good. I had made myself a small salad (a bagged salad) at dinner time, couldn’t even eat it all. When the pain began, I remembered the last time I got EColi was from bagged salad. But I was already having swelling and discomfort when I tried eating that, and I have IBS so thought that’s what it was.
Don’t wish this on anyone!
DCCC Mercilessly Mocked for Touting Dear Leader Biden’s Gas Price ‘Victory’
You have to give credit to the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee (DCCC). They stuck to their guns and kept up a Tweet (so far) thanking Joe Biden for lowering gas prices. The problem is the graphic they shared is so manipulated and the price change is so pitiful, even leftwing propaganda outlet Business Insider noticed their shenanigans:
In an attempt to tout President Joe Biden’s efforts at lowering gas prices, the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee tweeted out a misleading chart on Thursday.
In the DCCC chart, a 2 cent per gallon decrease is made to look more dramatic by stretching the X-axis of the graph out of scale.
This is funny:

His neck is too long for a woman.
Didn’t Buttedgeedge and his wife/husband welcome new twins.
I never said I welcomed a new baby, always gave birth to a baby, not that it wasn’t welcomed.
When you have an upset stomach eat some soda crackers, just nibble.
Helps.
It’s a giraffe!
Lookit that neck!
Hubby got dehydrated and passed out.
Later his blood pressure shot up to the point I called the paramedics who confirmed he was dehydrated and needed fluids, a lot of fluids.
They wanted to take him to the hospital, but he refused to go.
This was the being of HIS colon problems which lasted for many months.
FAMILY-OWNED, WISCONSIN MEAT SHOP SUES BIDEN ADMINISTRATION OVER ILLEGAL, FEDERAL MASK “MANDATE”
December 2021
FTA
Nolechek’s Meats is suing the Biden Administration after a federal agency threatened to withhold the “USDA Mark of Inspection” on its meat products because its Wisconsin-based facility is mask-optional for employees
THORP, Wis. (Dec. 2, 2021) – A fourth-generation, family-owned and -operated meat shop in central Wisconsin is fighting back against the federal government’s efforts to impose an illegal federal mask mandate on small businesses. Nolechek’s Meats has filed a federal lawsuit against the Biden Administration, after federal food inspectors threatened to withhold the USDA Mark of Inspection on its meat products because Nolechek’s is located in a mask-optional state and is a mask-optional workplace. Without the USDA Mark of Inspection, Nolechek’s products could be labeled “adulterated,” recalled and the meat shop would be prohibited from selling to wholesalers outside Wisconsin — crippling its business.
Nolechek’s Meats is located in the small town of Thorp, Wisconsin. It is represented by attorneys at the Liberty Justice Center, a national nonprofit law firm that is fighting federal vaccine mandates. The lawsuit, filed today, highlights that requiring Nolechek’s employees to mask is illegal.
“Federal food inspectors do not have the authority to mandate employees wear masks simply because their products are federally inspected. And withholding markers of food safety is nothing more than a federal shakedown. This is an illegal and gross abuse of power by the Biden Administration,” said Buck Dougherty, senior attorney at the Liberty Justice Center. “Nolechek’s operates a premium facility that abides by the highest food safety standards. The Biden Administration is bullying small businesses and operating far outside the powers provided by Congress to the USDA. These threats to small businesses must be stopped.”
The Nolechek family has safely and successfully crafted high-quality, gourmet meat products in Thorp, Wisconsin, for over 50 years. In 2017, the family-run business secured the right to use the Food Safety and Inspection Service (FSIS) supervised “Mark of Inspection” and begin selling products to wholesalers and commercially out of state. The company has nine employees, many of whom are family members.
In August of 2021, FSIS announced Notice 34-21—outside of the legally required rulemaking processes including allowing affected parties to comment—ordering all federally inspected establishments to force their employees to wear masks when federal inspectors are present. Out of respect for their employees’ rights, and in accordance with Wisconsin state law, the Nolechek family decided not to implement a mask mandate for their employees.
However, upon learning that Nolechek’s Meats was not complying with its mask mandate, FSIS revoked the shop’s “Mark of Inspection,” thereby restricting a significant component of its business and wrongfully implying that its products are unsafe to consume.
“Our meat shop operates under stringent food safety standards, and we would never do anything to endanger our customers. We take personal pride in our product, which has been core to the Nolechek family for the past four generations. This is not about food safety; this is about the federal government using all the tools at its disposal to coerce people into following its skewed agenda and threatening small businesses’ and Americans’ rights,” said Lindsey Fox, fourth-generation co-owner of Nolechek’s Meats. “We will not stand for it. We are fighting back, not just to protect our own business and our own rights but the rights of all business owners who have been subject to the same illegal action.”
