Okay, starting with something meaty.
⚔️AbsoluteConviction1776⚔️🇺🇸 (🇺🇸⚔️Absolute1776⚔️🇺🇸)
No one told us this was gonna be easy.
Not Q. Not President Trump. Not General Flynn. Not me, and not a single credible Anon ran around telling anybody this was gonna be easy – or fast.
As a matter of fact – President Trump told us straight up. He said, and I quote – “I am a war time President”.
Well …. Let’s ponder on that for a moment.
*looks at American War Involvement from 2016-2020*
Funny. I didn’t see any wars being fought by the United States Military in the way of which we’ve become so accustomed in that time frame.
So I need you to ask yourself – what, exactly, was he referring to?
Allow me to answer this for you – He was referring to taking down the cabal. You see – the war he is/was commanding is a new kind of war. It isn’t overt. It isn’t fought with boots on the ground. It has been fought for decades through backdoor deals, black ops, and infiltration of every single American institution. It is a war we’d still be unaware of if not for Q.
As Reagan feared – we have been rotted from the inside out.
So how do you fix the rot? The same way. From the inside out. You infiltrate [their] institutions. You play along with [them], you make friends with [them]. You spend so much time around [them], that knowing how [they] operate becomes second nature.
Game theory.
Think Trump’s association with the Clintons, or Epstein. Or Flynn’s association with certain unsavory characters. Infiltration goes both ways, frens.
The moment Trump turned on them at the Al Smith dinner, they knew they were done. The moment he stood in the lobby of the CIA and said he was dismantling the “5th Column”, they knew they had no way out.
And yesterday, when John Durham said “we have it all” – [they] had to face the grim reality that Q isn’t a larp. That Durham isn’t bullshitting around, and that Trump wasn’t lying when he said “we caught the swamp … we caught them all”.
It is slow. It is painful for all involved. I remind you that we were told “it had to be this way”. And I don’t know about you, but everyday that passes I see more and more waking up. I see more and more liberals ditching their support for Democrats and the far left.
People truly needed to be shown how deep the corruption and evil went. Simply telling them would have done no good at this point.
The Great Awakening is also The Great Unveiling.
We are all being forced to look in a mirror and adjust our perspective, priorities, and even our faith. We are all being made to feel fear at it’s most primal level – for that is when fight or flight kicks in, and I truly believe [they] are about to see that the majority of humans will in fact choose fight over flight.
And therein lies the purpose of the scare event being necessary. Because only legitimate fear awakens the warrior in every soul.
We all feel it. Even myself. If you say you aren’t a little afraid or worried at this point, you’re lying. It’s okay to be afraid, but make sure to let it pass. Don’t hold on to it. Don’t allow it to dictate the level of faith, hope, or love you contain.
You are a Light. A beacon. A child of God. We are all here to make manifest His glory and love. We are all here for a purpose. And that purpose is NOT to watch the world fall to Satanism. Our purpose is witness the dawn of an age of glory and peace.
Be not afraid. Christ has you.
Be not afraid. Glory lies ahead.
Be not afraid. Light surrounds you.
Be not afraid. Love surrounds you.
BE. NOT. AFRAID.
I ask a favor of all those who read this; Pray. Have faith. Be patient. And trust that God is going to see us through this.
In Jesus’ name I pray for peace/comfort and protection for all eyes reading this. For my Non-Christian friends, I extend the very same love and light to you as well.
Hang in there, frens. We’re all warriors, and God wins.
We’re all God’s children, and when ya think about it – when has He EVER failed you? The answer is never. And the proof is that you’re reading this right now.
God bless and Godspeed, Frens & Patriots.
The real war was not and is not going to be televised. Whatever we are seeing on the “news” is all distraction.
Looks like it finally happened.
Well….
But, nothing is happening.
Where do they come up with this stuff?
Something to remember, always.
Per the boss’s instruction:
I’d throw in a few Rockefellers and Rothschilds also.
Of course, this does not mean committing felonies, but standing up to the forces that want to tear this nation – and humanity apart. The very people XVII told us will be destroyed by the time this movie comes to an end are currently roaming the halls of power…supposedly. It’s a sickening sight.

ACTS 2:36-41
36Let all the house of Israel therefore know assuredly that God has made him both Lord and Christ, this Jesus whom you crucified.” 37Now when they heard this they were cut to the heart, and said to Peter and the rest of the apostles, “Brethren, what shall we do?” 38And Peter said to them, “Repent, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of your sins; and you shall receive the gift of the Holy Spirit. 39For the promise is to you and to your children and to all that are far off, every one whom the Lord our God calls to him.” 40And he testified with many other words and exhorted them, saying, “Save yourselves from this crooked generation.” 41So those who received his word were baptized, and there were added that day about three thousand souls.

St. Michael the Archangel, defend us in battle. Be our protection against the wickedness and snares of the devil. May God rebuke him, we humbly pray. And do thou, Prince of the Heavenly Hosts, by the power of God, cast down to Hell Satan and all his evil spirits, who prowl about the world seeking the ruin of souls. Amen.

Amen brother.

As always, prayers for the fight against that which seeks to enslave us are welcome. Via con Dios.

Sort of a bridge between the end of yesterday’s post and this one —
😂 What a show first thing in the morning 😂
This is freakin’ hilarious.
I lost it at the cat.
Reminded me of the catturd cat.
That was great! Aside from his overt physical demonstrations, I love how he sneaks in verbiage that reveals absolute absurdity.
April 19-20 are major false flag dates.
But a perfect time to read about a TRUE FLAG EVENT!!!
https://theconservativetreehouse.com/blog/2022/04/18/tonight-is-the-anniversary-of-paul-reveres-ride-read-as-mr-revere-explains-the-battle-of-lexington-and-concord-in-his-own-words/
It is amazing to read it in his own words (with varied spellings, which are interesting). I had seen this before, I think in the excellent book Paul Revere’s Ride by David Hackett Fischer (though I can’t locate it in the book at the moment).
Direct link: https://www.masshist.org/database/viewer.php?item_id=99&img_step=1&mode=transcript#page1
A small portion. You can feel the danger and tension, though Revere did not dramatize it at all.
DPat, all your openers are good, and this one is exceptionally good!! Thank you for bringing such an awesome collection of news and tweets!
Celebrating the judge in Florida. I read the decision; it was everything we’d expect from a Clarence Thomas protegee. And he is back participating at full strength (announced today). A win-win for us!
Hooray!

The Rothschild quotes are being vigorously denied by “fact-checkers”, as expected. HOWEVER, in looking for any information “beyond the strawman”, so to speak, I encountered the following MSM-vouched record of Nathaniel Rothschild’s deep and very micromanagerial involvement in politics, in a particular scandal.
An interesting name, too, for his “guest of honor” in this little episode of contention.
A certain Mr. Oleg Deripaska.
Yes. Think about THAT.
LINK: http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/uk_news/politics/7681595.stm
ARCHIVE: https://archive.ph/F3QSy
Of particular note – as he laughs hysterically at the BS.
This is an explanation Mr Feldman gives regularly when asked about donations both privately and publicly. At this point Mr Rothschild said that Mr Deripaska owned UK trading companies including Leyland Daf.
There was no discussion about how a donation by Mr Deripaska could be concealed or channelled. At no point did Mr Osborne or Mr Feldman solicit or ask for a donation, suggest ways of channelling a donation or express any wish to meet with Mr Deripaska to discuss donations.
The conversation moved on to the US elections. Some time later Mr Rothschild – having phoned Mr Deripaska – invited Mr Osborne, Mr Feldman and one other house guest for a further drink on Mr Deripaska’s yacht which was moored nearby.
Mr Osborne and Mr Feldman agreed to meet with Mr Deripaska and his wife and family. They stayed on the boat for about an hour and drank tea. There was a discussion about British and Russian politics, education and Russian history.
There was no conversation or mention of party funding or the possibility of Mr Deripaska making a donation to the Conservative Party. After the group left the boat Mr Feldman did not see Mr Deripaska or Mr Rothschild again and had no further conversations with Mr Deripaska.
Mr Osborne met Mr Deripaska again briefly the following lunchtime when both Mr Deripaska and Mr Mandelson visited the Rothschild villa. The conversation between them lasted no more than five minutes and again there was no discussion about political donations.
I’ve been looking at Elon and Twitter as a circus sideshow. Watching the body-language analysis of Elon’s TED talk is raising my hackles.
GREAT video – on both levels!
I read this whole thing, this way; I think Elon is terribly aware of the magnitude of the absolute DANGER of what he is trying to do.
I am POSITIVE Elon knows that he is up against SATAN. Not theoretical satan, actual SATAN.
We speak here often of spiritual warfare. Can you imagine the spiritual attacks on Elon Musk lately?
Also, I think people with Asperger’s are difficult to read because their social stress triggers are so unusual. Something unseen or unheard by the watcher could cause incredible stress for Elon that would show up in body language.
That’s a good explanation.
Thanks. I’ve had Elon on my heart for a week or two. I think he is actually trying to do something good, and will probably pay a price for doing so. Not so much in money, but in a loss of peace, which I personally value far more.
I take Elon at face value. Believe Elon sees the danger AND KNOWS things can become VERY PERILOUS for the global community.
Understand he relies heavily on Chinee for significant manufacturing AND sales.
Hoping for the best.
There IS only ONE HOPE TO STOP TW. Hostile take over to end TW censorship, shadow banning, banning… Elon IS the only option I see.
He’s the only one I see, too.
I wonder if there were a way to crowdsource thew takeover.
10K+(100K?) people buying stock to support Elon, so the BOD can’t shut down the takeover.

There are other alternatives with peeps….
Sooo…I experienced something odd today, and feel like y’all are the only people I can bring it to for advice. Just to preface my experience, I wasn’t brought up in a Christian home, and never feel like anything other than a newbie Christian since I came to God as an adult.
I stopped in a Dollar General store after work to pick up one item, because I knew it would not be crowded like the supermarket would be at 5:00. In fact I was the only customer in the store when I reached the register, and the clerk was on a personal call seemingly pleading with a manager for time off work for an important event.
Not a big deal, I stood aside and waited patiently until she ended the call, after which she made an apology. No problem, I replied. Then she said, “I just need someone to pray for me”.
”I’ll pray for you” I blurted out, normally I wouldn’t have done that, feeling like I’m not good enough, but it just came out naturally. She looked taken aback, and said something like she didn’t think it would help.
“Of course it will help, God can help with anything, you only have to ask, we can pray now, I’ll pray with you”. Again the words just tumbling out of my mouth, me – who can never speak up. Was that correct? I think that’s ok?
She completely clammed up then and broke eye contact, and I thought “ oh no” I shouldn’t have said anything. But I tried one more time as I was fumbling with my credit card, and I asked her name, it’s Abigail, and I said “I’ll pray for you, Abigail, is there anything specific you’d like to pray regarding?”
Now this is what’s odd, and I know I didn’t imagine it:
She said “oh it just my nerves and stress”, then she made eye contact again, and I knew she was gauging my reaction, like to see if I could tell she was lying, you know? However, I got this sensation, a feeling of certainty that I was looking into the eyes of a demon or something evil and old and ancient. I wasn’t afraid at all, just that feeling that she wasn’t normal and that I didn’t understand what was happening. I replied “God can help you with that, He can help us with everything we ask of Him, and I’ll be praying for Him to help you, Abigail”. I hope that’s right, biblically? I’m true to my word and have been praying for her all evening and begging God to save her from satan.
What could or should I have done differently? I don’t want to mess up, neither this time nor in future encounters like this.
Happy, it sounds like God was with you and giving you the words to say. I’ll pray for Abigail, too, and hope that others will also.
Thank you, Linda, and thank you for you talking to me about it. From now on I want to always be less of my words and more of God’s. Love to you.
Your experience in the moment shows discernment. You were led and you followed the leading. You didn’t embellish, you were there with just the right response.
If Abigail was a momentary conduit for something evil or if she is struggling with something long term, by taking her request for prayer simply and directly you offered her the Godly path forward and your quick response that “God can help you with that…” was a great way of reminding that “God meets us where we are.”
Yours was a wise and loving response.
Thank you, Bill, for helping me understand. I hoped I did the right thing, but I tell you that I definitely felt the strong realization that I need to know my Bible more!
I came to believe in God and the power of prayer about two years ago, after flitting around the outskirts most of my life, the thing that always held me back was having to forgive my enemies, I mean I just wasn’t going to do that! So to put it plainly, I was assaulted when I was eleven, and my parents kept it under wraps, I know they thought that for the time and place it was the best thing to do for me, but led to problems, that caused more problems later in my marriage, and generally just something I never got free from.
Then along came the 2020 election and January 6, and I had enough of the news. I looked for a radio station to have on in the car that never had the news haha, and found SpiritFM. That got me into reading my Bible again, and thinking on things, and trying to pray like I believed in it! But that forgiveness thing still stuck in my craw, until one day clear as a bell I thought “I don’t have to like it, I just have to do it “. And so I told God that I forgave that man and that I forgave my parents and that I knew satan used them to hurt God too, and would He please take away all the bad feelings and memories I still had.
And He did, just exactly like that. I stopped having bad dreams and getting nauseous and a lot of other things. I can’t articulate it very well, but imagine if you’ve been bullied by this invisible enemy and then it’s gone and you’re safe and you’re confident it’s not coming back.
So I know for sure now that prayer works and God heals. And I was sincere when I said that to Abigail, but I was worried I shouldn’t have spoken up and maybe I wasn’t exactly Biblical in how I phrased it, because I don’t want to let satan use anything I say and do. Thank you for talking to me and reassuring me and I will continue on diligently praying and learning . Love to you.

Great insight here!
I have found that forgiveness is not exactly what I thought it was, and that is part of why forgiveness is possible, when I thought it wasn’t.
You did the RIGHT thing.

Happy, there is no such thing as messing up. As long as you ask for or offer prayers that are sincerely heartfelt, God Knows. He will also use you (sometimes to your surprise) to help others. There is hope for Abigail (a demon will not request prayer). Keep praying for her as the Spirit moves you and trust God to do His work.🤗🤗🥰
❤️
Well said BJG!
The most important words of the most important prayer are “Thy Will Be Done.” They are not combined with “unless it makes me look foolish” or “unless it’s awkward.” You were touched by a Greater Presence, and your tongue was loosened, despite your usual doubts and reluctance to speak. Your words were simple and heartfelt, and formed good counsel and inspiration.
It is natural to be stirred in such circumstances. But let that stirring inspire you into further exercises to further God’s Will and not mere introspection. God’s Purposes may not be visible in this generation — or the next — but the kindness of your actions, your promotion of Faith and Hope, stands on its own in its day. If you can’t completely figure out God’s Will, it must surely be permissible for us lesser beings to merely set ourselves to do Good.
I know it is a great relief on such rare occasions I can know that I have done Good. I try to keep an eye out for such opportunities. How fortunate you were to find one yesterday…..I hope you find another soon.

Very well presented.
Thanks. That is a good website for early American history.
Excellent! Thank you!
YW!
So, as an odd story to add to an odd story…..
I can see a comment that goes:
So far as I understand things, I should not see comments “Awaiting for approval”.
Nevertheless, I should state that I see nothing wrong with the way this situation was handled. You’re going to have red flags and concerns with many interactions with strangers, and such caution is necessary in the world we have.
I had a weird encounter myself this afternoon — not that they’re really comparable. I went by the local 7-11 and was fumbling around to get exact change before I locked my car and went in — and from right behind me, I got this canine half-howl, half-bay and seriously jumped. I turned around and it was actually about three parking-spaces distant, but it was a large white sled-dog type hanging out a mostly open window. He/she cried again and looked at the shop’s door instead of me.
I have previously determined that I can stop an attack by a single dog, using a procedure a friend taught me — and I wasn’t the focus of things, so I kept floundering around until I started to go in. And the dog’s owner came out in a hurry and started to verbally berate the dog (possibly for having startled me). And I smiled and said something like, “ee was just missing you.” [Dog pronouns are even more difficult than assholes who put them on buttons.]
And the guy downshifted, moved slower and less angrily, softened his tone toward his dog, and (surprise bonus) wished me a nice afternoon.
We can have a generally pleasant and friendly approach to everyone we meet — human or canine — while being suitably guarded and cautious…..and spread love, fellowship, and faith where we can. It is for the Saints to perform miracles and convert multitudes — we can merely do our best.
Well as long as we’re all talking about our weird yesterdays…my furnace died. AND my truck battery. AND the furnace repairman doesn’t know when the replacement part will be available because of the ever present “supply chain issues.” It’s cold, and I can’t even use the truck to warm up or drive somewhere warm. An inconvenience in the grand scheme of things, but I’m praying for a quick solution. Honestly, the past month has been one kick to the crotch after another here which is why I’m not posting as much.
What’s the model of the furnace? What part does your furnace guy say is missing?
Bryant. Control board is kaput. Everything else appears to be functional.
Sadie, ask the furnace guy what the control board part number is, and then hunt one down online.
I have found out-of-production parts for a couple old appliances that way, when the repairman couldn’t get them.
Same thing with obsolete car parts. That stuff is usually out there, you just have to know exactly what you’re looking for (i.e., the manufacturer’s part number).
Here is the eBay link for Bryant furnace control boards, if it’s not listed there, try the various search engines for the specific part number. https://s.w.org/images/core/emoji/13.1.0/svg/1f44d.svg
https://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_nkw=Bryant+Furnace+control+board&_sacat=0
So good to see you again!
Amen 🙂
Indeed, when the board went out on mine I had a repair guy tell me he had one in his van for $600+.Ouch! The next time it went out 3yrs later, I went on the search and found one for $117 and put it in myself. That felt good.
Sadie, if you’re not confident about the installation part, maybe there’s a friend out there who might lend a hand. Saving even more $.
Yeah, I’m kind of leaning toward the DIY option after they quoted me $870 today to fix it. Sheesh.
Between alternate sources for buying the part AND YT videos for installation, likely save significant bucks.
Lots of YT videos for Bryant, Trane, Lennox… My guesstimate is furnace operation is generally quite similar. Likely you’d be able to locate some decent videos addressing your furnace issue AND on a Bryant system.
Good luck, whatever path you pursue.
Thank you!
😱
I hope you have access to a space heater, fireplace, or maybe a bonfire in a backyard pit or trashcan? God Bless, keep you warm, and speed up your repairs Miss Sadie.
Thank you!
YSW!
Thank you, Scott! Good to see you around!
Great advice.
Nice to see ya Scott!
WRONG.
(just kiddin’! Wanted you to feel “at home” Good to see you Scott!)
😉
Try eBay. It’s amazing what can be found there in the way of older mechanical replacement parts, especially if manufacture of it has been discontinued.
I got 1,600 hits at eBay using “Bryant furnace control board”.
The results of the search can be found here:
https://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_from=R40&_trksid=p2380057.m570.l1313&_nkw=bryant+furnace+control+board&_sacat=0
You’ll need to find out what the specific model number of your furnace is to narrow it down to what you need. There is a plate on the furnace, likely in the area of the access door, with the info. You’ll need a flashlight.
Also while I’m at it, here’s a source for dog food that might fit your dog’s needs that can be bought online:
https://greatlakespetfood.com/
Also, try searching for custom small volume pet food makers in the state you live in, or ones in states near by to see what is available, and to cut down on shipping costs.
The truck battery issue could be an easy fix without replacing it. Could be corroded battery terminals that need cleaning, possibly lose battery cable ends that need to be tightened with a wrench, or low water level, which can be fixed by adding distilled water and the battery recharged or jump started with battery cables (help from a neighbor?)
P.S. On the Bryant control board, some of what is being sold is used, which is usually always stated in the listing. It’s ‘buyer beware’ on those.
When I bought the used motherboard for my laptop, I also compared the part lot numbers. Every option available looked to be 1-2 years older than the one I was replacing. I picked the MoBo whose lot number was sequentially closest to my original.
Just looking at images of search for Bryant furnace control board, shows board part numbers starting with HK or CEPL. Did see a few boards with the part number silk-screened on the board. You may even find furnace repair manuals online that give part lists with numbers.
Yep. Online repair sites, hoping to sell replacement parts, are EXCELLENT sources for part numbers and determine part availability quickly. Prices very reasonable, as compared to any repair outfit.
The Illustrated Parts Breakdown – IPB can be odd to use the first couple go a round’s. But IPBs are laid out logically, make perfect sense.
Thank you!
Thank you for the help! It’s appreciated!
I’ve been waiting on a part called “a nozzle” since last fall when my furnace was serviced. Furnace guy said he can’t find parts anywhere. The furnace is backup heat, so haven’t had to use it much and old part is still working, so far. Hope your situation resolves Sadie. Sounds challenging.
This may or may not be feasible, but if it is one nozzle in a set, you could take a known good nozzle to a machinist and ask for it to be duplicated.
Thank you! I hope your furnace issue gets resolved, too.
My dad has been waiting for more than a year for a part for his gas “woodburning” stove. They finally traced the part to one of the container ships backed up off the coast of SoCal. Luckily, that stove is not his only source of heat.
Praying that your situation(s) turn around for the better!
Thank you! It’s appreciated!
Not sure where your at Sadie, but there is this also. https://www.cnbc.com/2022/04/19/spring-noreaster-could-dump-10-inches-of-snow-in-pennsylvania-and-new-york.html
That’s me. A foot of the wettest snow I’ve ever seen. Global warming! 😁
I emphasize with you.
My furnace has been out since February cause the electronic part is not in. The furnace is American made but assume the electronic part not.
Have heaters around the house that keep warm and dressing in layers .
Bath time is fun but the ceiling heating helps. I have a habit of hot and cold showering that helps also. If the sun is out is nice also to warm up. One gets used to the cooler house and is not to bad with heaters the temp runs between 58-65 during the day. Turn heaters off during the night but have a feather bed keeps me warm.
I hope your furnace gets fixed soon and your truck also.
Thank you! I hope your furnace situation gets resolved soon, too.
I hope so too but next week is supposed to be 89F soon is going to be a mood point if I have heat or not. My husband is going to call the maker of the boiler we have steam heat and ask for a good repair guy in where I live.
We also make some changes with our gas fireplace and it looks I will get the iron stove I always wanted 🙂 Our fireplace used to be wood and then was changed to gas.
Now that you mention it, this past month being a kick in the crotch… Able to fix all, but, a steady stream of, what’s next…
Can’t snivel much, as these were fairlyeasy fixes and parts mostly available.
Dunno what’s next?
I as myself also what is next. My husband’s Subaru had a steering problem took a while to have it fixed. Today he can pick it up. Was still under warranty and they gave us a loner car.
He will drive to Huntington WV this afternoon. He is still teaching this year he will be 80. This semester he is teaching economics at University.
He loves intellectual work not so happy with handy work.
Toilet fun. Sprinkler backflow device, chainsaw sharpening, still TBD. Chomping at the bit to fertilize and trim trees. I played Xfinity cable person today, splicing and connecting cut coax wires outside. Finally had to make an appointment, I think the neighborhood box is the problem. Muh. Life is good, what doesn’t kill us makes us stronger.
Home Depot is Fun! 🤸♀️🤸♀️🤸♀️
Glad you are having fun 🙂
Re: cooktop igniters — time was, every time the cleaners came through, several would quit. I found that I could blow them out with compressed air for a bit and they’d start working again (probably some cleaning solution shorted them somewhere).
Interesting.
Tried both the compressed air, AND a crisp dollar bill to kinda, maybe get any crud off the igniter top /sides. Of the two balky igniters, one started working.
Thanks for the tip.
YW. Sometimes it took a while for the compressed air — the actual spark generator is down under the cooktop, and the igniter on top is just an electrode surrounded by insulator — much like a spark plug.
🙂
Yup. Patience is sometimes key with igniters, to ignite.
Sorry to hear that your month is going about as well as mine.
Yea, thanks. In reality, my challenges pale compared to many, including here QTree. overall, I am quite fortunate.
Stories like yours make me so grateful that I was able to install a wood stove in both my little cottage, and the bigger house my daughter and grands live in. I had to battle her tooth and claw over the wood stove, but of course now she loves it.
I hope things improve for you, and that the part becomes available. Could you maybe check around online for a used part in the meantime? Like on Ebay or something?
Yes, I think I’m going to do some part shopping tonight.
Best of luck! I hope you are successful.
UPDATE: The furnace repair place called. $870 total for the part plus installation, which seems high. I don’t mind paying for labor, but given some of the part prices I saw on the links posted here, the quote seems off. I upgraded the space heater today so the situation here is a bit more tolerable. Going to weigh my options tonight before making a final decision. Thank you very much for all of the support!
$870 total for the part plus installation…
^^^ O U C H ! ^^^ 
If you decide to go with the repair place, negotiate for a lower price. Offer to pay in cash, say $500 labor plus the part.
You never know until you ask. What did DJT say?
“What have you got to lose?”
OH MY. Labor $500?
No idea the issue with Sadie’s furnace, but that is ~3 1/2 hours labor out my way. Would have to be a significant problem. IMO.
HVAC guys out my way are $140 per hour. They charge to / from time to job site + paperwork time + actual troubleshoot / repair time.
IF DIY repair does not fit, there are numerous HVAC guys out there. Small businesses most likely to negotiate labor price.
Well, that is my two cents.
Great advice! Thank you!
Good point about negotiating. Thank you. Will keep that in mind!
Check online !
-Do a search “How to (fill in the blank)”
-Do a YouTube search with the same search terms (for video)
(NOTE: Check SEVERAL videos)
(MAKE SURE you have the proper tools and materials, or access to them !)
Good Luck !

Thank you!

Do you have the ‘nextdoor’ online app in your area? I’ve found good yard, repair, you name it people recommended by my neighbors for lots cheaper. I confer w/my plumber and buy parts myself if I can get for less, and he installs, I just pay his labor. Sprinkler guy is super cheap too, I have parts, he installs.
I hate repair companies. When my furnace board went out, HVAC marked it up $300, plus labor, and later when I had no hot water, realized they blew out my pilot light (for no reason). Conveniently, my plumber was here on another issue and he relit for me. He was very concerned cuz my water heater is soooo old, it should not be disturbed. I pray over it and my refrigerator constantly.
One unscrupulous HVAC dude tried to charge me $300/lb for freon, I sent him away. I need 3lbs every 2yrs on my upstairs unit. Multiple houses in my family had used that company for over 10yrs. I called them up and told them what I thought of their ‘new management’. Buh-Bye.
Thanks for the advice! Definitely an option I’m considering.
Very nice 🙂
I’d love to know how to do that, if you don’t mind sharing.
Thanks for asking this. Had intended to do so, but, spaced out, again.
This works for individual horses and dogs, but NOT with multiple assailants, cats, or bears.
You are looking to get your hands, thumb-side up, on either side of their head, about shoulder length apart. With dogs, you’ll be crouching down and forward — which is good, because otherwise they can go for your legs.
As you are moving into this position, your hands will get to a position where the subject animal cannot see both of your hands at once, which makes them nervous. At this point, they have three options — attack your body between your hands, at which point you can counterattack in a variety of ways (a postman I knew [who did MMA for fun] kneed a dog hard enough to bump it back about five feet, or you can go for the neck/back of head); attack one hand, at which point you snatch that hand out of the way and swat the animal (hard) with the other hand (possibly hitting an eye or ear); or back up so the animal can see both your hands again.
It actually helps to grin like a maniac during this process.
I’d had this method described to me by my friend (who was backing up a horse at the time) and really didn’t quite believe it. About a year and some later, the Fiancee and I were walking around the neighborhood and were charged by a dog from two houses away. There was no cover, no place to run to, and no tools available, so I told the Fiancee to get behind me.
The dog, Stella, is a pit/German shepherd mix who was a rescue and had been abused. When the family took her in, she had serious mental issues. She was initially puzzled that I had not run, but squared up against her, and she started slowing. I then got my hands up and ready, and she stopped charging right before her head was in the box. She investigated going around, and I had to keep the Fiancee behind me, but I stayed squared off.
Then I moved forward and she did not like that at all, but backed up. At that point, I did not know how long this was going to go on, so I started backing her up toward a lawn — thinking that it would be easier on me to tackle her on grass than on concrete. I had backed her up about eight feet before a family member took control of her.
She never tried option 1 — direct attack between the hands; and, frankly, I don’t recall if I ever had to slap her. The grin let her know that such was available. Of course, I was thinking about it quite a bit and she could probably smell the adrenaline — and that it wasn’t the “run and cower” flavor of adrenaline.
I was initially skeptical until there were no other options, and it worked much better than expected.
Works with my cat. He’s as weird as his owner, so there’s that.
Is your cat declawed?
It would probably work with cheetahs, except they’re so fast — their claws are non-retractable and are worn down on the road, like dogs’.
No, but I’m having second thoughts about not doing that. He’s too old now to have that done. I found out excessive use of claws is primarily due to being taken away from momma too soon. Apparently, mother cats teach their kits more than just using litter boxes.
Surgical declawing makes me wince….but I’m the guy who does dental crowns without anesthetic, so I’m probably not the best source. You could also try trimming his “murder mittens” every few weeks, so long as he’s an inside cat.
He’s a de-nutted manx and he thinks the yard is his kingdom. He runs perimeter patrols on a regular basis.
Manx are such strange and wonderful cats. They are capable of such amazing feats — I once saw one grab for a bird on top of a horizontal branch fully six-and-a-half feet in the air. No wind-up, no crouch, no squinting or aiming, just casually licking its paw — then a full-extension levitation ending with its paw where the bird used to be, about a half-inch behind the bird.
If he’s running perimeter patrols, he might need his murder mittens on occasion and should probably keep ’em. When I was in 3rd grade, our tomcat (variety “pound alleycat mutt”) did some serious damage to our neighbor’s manx. I felt bad at the time because the manx was more attractive and friendlier — it was only later that I considered that they may also have been disarmed.
And, finally, you shouldn’t think too much on your cat, lest you be surprised by a Jabberwock —
“He took his vorpal sword in hand:
Long time the manxome foe he sought—
So rested he by the Tumtum tree,
And stood awhile in thought.”
Good to know.
The limitations of this method are mostly obvious. The animal must have forward-facing eyes and attack mainly with a bite. Lions and tigers and bears would just rip you apart with claws. Further, it only works on one animal at a time — if you are in a situation with two or more animals, you will likely have to incapacitate (kill) all but one immediately — freeing yourself to use this method on the other.
The friend who taught me this was known as Gushka back at Ace’s. I’ve got a bunch of pictures where Uncle Horse was photobombing a Gushka picture.
The dog bumped by “Penny”, the MMA postman, was also Stella. He didn’t bother to “box her head”, first — he just stuffed the side of the mail bag into her face and kneed her into the subsequent week. MMA people think different.

Part of it…
“The US is convening an urgent meeting with world leaders due to the new offensive of the RF Armed Forces.
Joe Biden plans to hold a meeting on April 19 with the leaders of France, Germany, Britain, Canada, Italy, Poland and Romania. NATO Secretary General will also take part.
The agenda is clear. The Russians want to destroy the 60,000+ Nazis in the east, who have been armed, trained and funded by the US and NATO for 8 years. Tens of billions of dollars of investment in fascism and years of work to destroy the Donbass and Russia are burning with a blue flame.”
https://t.me/intelslava/25849
The Nazi ideology needs to be eradicated. They are dangerous to Ukraine and the world.
I am wondering since they are being supported if the New World Order wants to usher in Nazi ideology around the world? God help us if that is the case.
Why else support them just as they did ISIS is the middle east. They want world destruction looks like it to me. Very evil.
Schwab and Soros are trying to put together some kind of global statist axis, using every tool or group at their disposal. They are trying to integrate the “Anglosphere” (“Atlantis”), the “Europhere”, China, and anybody else who has fallen for the globalist siren song. They are using Nazism, Bolshevism, and even deluded liberal Wokeism.
The creation and support of Nazism by external forces has never been so clear.
Using the wrong kind like Nazis ISIS communism is dangerous not just for us but for them as well. Their greed for power has made them blind.

BE MY VOICE
BABY LIVES MATTER
PRAYING ON THE ARMOR OF GOD
Father God, I now follow your command to put on the full armor of God, because my battle is not against flesh and blood but against rulers, authorities, the powers of this dark world and against spiritual forces of evil in the unseen world.
I first pray on the Belt of Truth that it may be buckled around my waist, may I be centered and encircled by your truth dear Lord. Hem me inside all that is true and right, and may I be protected and held up by the truth of your living word, in my Lord Jesus name.
I pray on the Breastplate of righteousness, please protect my vital organs and my inner man, cover my integrity, my spirit, and my soul. Guard my heart for it is the wellspring of life, please strengthen and guard the most vulnerable places in my life with that which is right, good, and noble that I might not receive a fatal blow from the enemy, in my Lord Jesus name.
I pray on the Gospel Shoes of Peace. I choose to stand in the shoes of your good news, and on the firm foundation of my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, the solid eternal rock. All other ground is sinking sand, I pray that I will not slip or fall, but that my feet would be firmly fitted on your lordship, my Lord Jesus. I choose to stand on you, so that the peace of God, which transcends all understanding will guard my heart and mind in Christ Jesus, the eternal Rock of Ages. I receive your holy peace now my Lord, from the sole of my feet to the crown of my head, in my Lord Jesus name.
I pray the Shield of Faith into my hand now. As I take up the shield of faith, I ask that you might extinguish every dart and arrow, that is launched from the enemy to take me down spiritually, physically, mentally, emotionally, and every attempt of the enemy to destroy my joy. I ask that my faith in you would make it flame out. Extinguish every flaming arrow that would come against me, my life, my family, my home, or my ministry. May my faith always be out in front of me like a shield. Give me the courage to “faith my fears” by choosing to walk by faith and not by sight, in my Lord Jesus name.
I pray on the Helmet of Salvation, that you might protect my mind from the thoughts that can lead me astray. I choose to take every thought captive, and arrest all intentioned ideas and motives that would harm others, or distract me from your holy will for me. I submit every captured thought to the Lordship of my Lord Jesus Christ, and ask that you would imprison those thoughts that are not of you my Lord. Transform my mind and renew my thinking that I may think God thoughts, and have a sober mind that is focused on your glory. Please protect me from being double minded that I may allow my mind, I reject to live an earthly life, because I choose to live a holy one, governed by you My Lord Jesus, the prince of peace, please have my mind to be saturated with the holy mind of Christ, in my Lord Jesus name.
Finally, I take up the Sword of the Spirit which is the holy word of God, I pray this powerful offensive weapon into my hand, and ask that your holy word would be fitting for every encounter I face. As the enemy gets close to me, please give me the insight, wisdom, and skill to wield the word of God to drive away the enemy, in my Lord Jesus name.
May the enemy and his team flee from me, upon hearing the word of God spoken by the power and direction of the Holy Spirit. Give me the sword of the spirit to cut through the wiles of the devil, so that I may discern the schemes of the enemy when he is near.
With all kinds of prayers, supplication, and intercession I pray to you my Lord God as the one who fights my battles. Now that I’m in your holy powerful armor, I walk away covered and ready to face my day as you go before me, and please protect me in the midst of the spiritual warfare in this unseen world, in my Lord Jesus name.
Thank you my Lord, for the spiritual weapons of armor and prayer that you have given me. It is written no weapon formed against me shall prosper, and you will refute every tongue that accuses me.
Thank you Father God, my Lord Jesus and the Holy Spirit, that I am more than a conqueror in my Lord Jesus. I pray all of this in the mighty name of my Lord God and Savior Jesus Christ.
AMEN.

Outrageous if true. I say if true because there is so much false flag information on the Internet that I am cautious. Sounds far fetched but if true its evil.

you and yr buddy there really get a kick out of singling out my posts as if they’re doom/gloom….

it’s you who is the whiner.
show me your “solutions”.
I posted an article about an issue…period.
you just have a bad-minded personal vengeance towards me.
and you enjoy triggering that with yr buddy.
I see right thru it.
obviously, you’ve kept yr eye on this little exchange, and jumped right in to Reply to my Reply to yr buddy.
“srsly” wasn’t sent as a Reply to yr snarky post..
but you jumped right in, anyway, ever-ready to follow thru on yr bad-minded trolling of me and my posts, in yr typically toxic manner.
“feeling happy yet ?”
Apparently not…
Schadenfreude.
Look at the facts, NOT the misery, nor the pot-stirring of the fear-porn providers. Gail has facts (whom you labelled as having a pscho disorder along the lines of “varicose brains”, if you don’t recall), as do RF121 and others, including myself, below.
18 million chickens isn’t even a days’ production, not in the USA, not elsewhere, where birds are regularly put down due to various conditions, be they virii or other sicknesses.
srsly, yr, etc. Indicators also….
The doom and gloom speaks for itself.
get lost
in yr obsessive zeal & excitement to harangue me, you’ve missed the point of the happy comment..
I am beyond sick & tired and totally fed-up with yr unnecessary attacks on my posts here.
it started OT and you continue it here with the same flying monkeys.
I ignore everything you post.
I suggest…rather insist …that you do the same with mine.
and this is not the first time I’ve told you so.
you are a troll.
a two-faced trouble maker.
back off and leave me alone.
Seems you didn’t ignore my post, however.
What indeed WAS the point of your “happy” comment, then?
Especially since it followed a report of a potential poultry disaster?
USG Following The Science. /s
There are billions of birds. Those numbers killed are chump change.
Yep. A quick look shows that in 2017, the USA processed NINE BILLION chickens, or 24,657,534 per day… Bird flu and other “issues” happen every year, not just in the USA, but worldwide. Gail probably has some good stats on that…
A lot of these diseases are cyclical, on top of that… and now, in Europe, the male chicks aren’t allowed to be killed (yet babies are…. go figure), so the farmers get to feed them and watch them kill each other off in battle for “coop supremacy”…
A bigger problem is that most of our processing plants (and probably ranches, etc.) are foreign-owned (read: RED China).
When I see what’s happened to Smithfield Farms, I could just cry… and there are many other companies which have suffered the same fate…
This is actually a very good point that shows the folly of our system. We should really have a kind of “accelerated slaughter” program for livestock destruction, when the animal sickness isn’t transmissible to humans.
Once Trump is back in, we’re gonna do it. We’re gonna make common sense rule again.
Now, Smiley, you’re simply going to have to accept that this place is filled with people who can’t stand bad news, negatively framed problems, etc. Personally speaking, I literally NEED these things, because they challenge my thinking to growth, and because it’s my site, they’re welcome. I invite you to do what I do. Consider all grumbles and snickers about your comments as measures of your effectiveness in bringing me the reality I need. Ignore calls to “propose solutions” – for me, personally, that’s my job.
I want the problems brought to me. If you literally drive people from this site with your content, I don’t care. Just keep doing what you’re doing. But I highly recommend not engaging the hopium folks. Just let them do their thing, and you do yours.
You know my position. You can bring whatever you want here, and it’s great. You want to win? Bring more. Smile, bite your tongue, and watch what happens.

hussein IS guilty as hell. The rot has been festering for quite awhile.
Yes it has and he hid behind race not the Flag and USA
Øbøzø should have entitled his book “Dreams From My Fathers“, as he, for all intents and purposes, had THREE fathers.
Muhammad Subuh Sumohadiwidjojo (Sorebarkah [barky]), the Indonesian mystic Moslem Subud cult leader, his biological father (discussed at length elsewhere),
Frank Marshall Davis, his political/ideological/rabid communist “thoughtfather”,
and Barack Hussein Obama Sr, his foster father, i.e. the poor sod who gets blamed for Øbøzø and Øbøzø’s acts and behaviour, yet he had little or no influence on them…
Obozo and NetFlix; almost like a Disney move.
Indeed, it’s been noted that almost all, if not ALL Disney movies depict broken families (cf. “Disney and the Bible”). Whether it’s fairy tales which Disney have made their own (and copyrighted for the next eternity+1, just to be sure), or original, vapid material of their own making (which no sane producer would wish to copy), the vomitus proceeding from the current iteration of Disney portrays anything but normalcy, and entices the young into a world of perverse “delight”, intended to delight the groomers and choomers of the deep state NWO Georgia Guidestones’ “New Sodom”…
At least one descendant of the founders of Disney is both aware of the book, and more than aware of the DEMONIC downfall and direction of his family’s namesake. Thirty-some years ago some of them attempted to take the company back and return it to its roots. Sad to say, that effort failed.
The same thing is seen in other companies, e.g. IBM and Hewlett-Packard. Once the founders died, and the children (usually) were forced out (boards, etc.) [what Carly did to Walter I’ll NEVER forget, yet I must forgive], they went the way of all “wokeness” and Wall-Street slavery…
Gail’s posted a few times about the original definition of companies and corporations, and the regulations and conditions under which they were formed. Might be a good thing if we could go back to that.
The Founding Fathers were wise, prudent, pious, and prescient indeed.

I love great poetry. I really, really do.
I read this article this morning, and it just made me feel smart, so I decided to share it. I agree with the author that Maya Angelou is a mediocre poet, but his very erudite and educated analysis of “why” is really good.
More than that, though, there is a poem in the middle of the article, by another black poet, that is truly great. It’s pretty short, but every word is perfect, evocative, and emotional. I mean, the single word ‘too’ evokes an entire life in that one word. It’s just amazing. I broke down in tears at the end, and I am not an easy cry.
Anyway, if you like poetry, or just want to feel like you learned something today, like I felt, here’s the article:
https://amgreatness.com/2022/04/18/the-habit-of-cultivating-mediocre-judgment/
That poem is all that you say, so moving and thought provoking.
Glad you liked it, too. 🙂

Kavanaugh and Barret show their true color. Not the friend of military siding with the communist regime. One other are they abiding by the Constitution and the law?
I am not sure does anyone know?
By the way what did we celebrate when they were nominated? How did they slip through? McConnell? Who pushed them because they are the enemy of conservatism.
He is not entitled to have a command position. The result might have been different if they had tried to punish him for failing to get the shot(s).
I’m inclined to side with the two justices on this one.
Obviously he know more than I do on that ruling. Thank you my bad
I’m just guessing but merely wanted to point out that the military puts people in positions which benefit the military. Personal ambitions are nice to have but they should not be part of the selection of a commander.
Note: I have not read any of the legal papers in this case so it’s just an experienced guess.

US bans anti-satellite missile tests
Vice President Kamala Harris declared the US will not conduct anti-satellite missile tests. She made the announcement while speaking at the Vandenberg Space Force Base in California on Monday. The Democrat voiced concerns of the possible debris created when the missiles hit their intended targets, which could rain down upon unsuspecting victims on earth or harm astronauts in orbit.
Harris specifically referenced past uses of the projectiles by America’s two largest rivals in space: Russia and China. Back in November, Russia targeted a defunct satellite, which created more than 1,500 pieces of debris and posed a danger to the International Space Station.
Harris went on to chastise the Russians and Chinese for operating in space without any regard for American interests.
The US is the first country to ban anti-satellite missile tests and is calling upon other countries to join the boycott of such operations. However, some believe the good intentions can have dire consequences.

CS Lewis on some deep truths…
On glory
[And this brings me to] the other sense of glory—glory as brightness, splendour, luminosity. We are to shine as the sun, we are to be given the Morning Star. I think I begin to see what it means. In one way, of course, God has given us the Morning Star already: you can go and enjoy the gift on many fine mornings if you get up early enough. What more, you may ask, do we want? Ah, but we want so much more—something the books on aesthetics take little notice of. But the poets and the mythologies know all about it. We do not want merely to see beauty, though, God knows, even that is bounty enough. We want something else which can hardly be put into words—to be united with the beauty we see, to pass into it, to receive it into ourselves, to bathe in it, to become part of it. That is why we have peopled air and earth and water with gods and goddesses and nymphs and elves—that, though we cannot, yet these projections can enjoy in themselves that beauty, grace, and power of which Nature is the image. That is why the poets tell us such lovely falsehoods. They talk as if the west wind could really sweep into a human soul; but it can’t. They tell us that “beauty born of murmuring sound” will pass into a human face; but it won’t. Or not yet. For if we take the imagery of Scripture seriously, if we believe that God will one day give us the Morning Star and cause us to put on the splendour of the sun, then we may surmise that both the ancient myths and the modern poetry, so false as history, may be very near the truth as prophecy. At present we are on the outside of the world, the wrong side of the door. We discern the freshness and purity of morning, but they do not make us fresh and pure. We cannot mingle with the splendours we see. But all the leaves of the New Testament are rustling with the rumour that it will not always be so. Some day, God willing, we shall get in. When human souls have become as perfect in voluntary obedience as the inanimate creation is in its lifeless obedience, then they will put on its glory, or rather that greater glory of which Nature is only the first sketch.
