Man O’ War
(Yes, I know it’s not quite horse racing season, but….)
INGREDIENTS
For The Man O’ War Cocktail:
- ice cubes for chilling the glass and for the shaker
- 1 1/2 ounces good-quality bourbonor your favorite rye whiskey
- 1 ounce Cointreau or other orange liqueur
- 1/2 ounce sweet vermouth
- 1/2 ounce freshly squeezed lemon juice
For Garnish:
- Brandied cherry
- Lemon peel
- Chill The Glass: Fill a coupe glass with ice and water and set aside.
- Make The Man O’ War Cocktail: Add the bourbon (or rye or whiskey), Cointreau, sweet vermouth, and lemon juice to a cocktail shaker. Fill halfway with ice.Close and shake until it is thoroughly chilled (almost too cold to touch), at least 20 seconds. Taste and add more lemon if you want it more tart or more Cointreau if you want it sweeter.
- Serve The Man O’ War Cocktail: Dump the ice water from the coupe glass. Strain the cocktail into the glass. Spear a brandied cherries and a bit of lemon peel onto a few cocktail toothpicks and garnish the glass. Serve.
Highlight of Thursday (instrumental music from Bizet’s Carmen is a bonus):
Put some ice on it.

Folks, I’m going to put this as bluntly as I can:
THE BIDEN CRIME FAMILY IS UNDER INVESTIGATION RIGHT NOW.
-That’s why Biden is speaking through his lawyer.
-That’s why there are these searches by his lawyers.
-That’s why there are searches by the FBI.
-That’s why there is a Special Counsel.Who, btw, officially started work as a Special Counsel TODAY.
This isn’t just about misplaced documents that are marked classified. If it was, the FBI would not be taking documents which are not classified and which date all the way back to Biden’s days as a Senator.
Everything [they] accused Trump of, everything [they] put Trump through, is being reversed onto [them].
It’s beautiful and amazing.
The best show ever.
Enjoy it.

Cursive handwriting and other educational anachronisms
I don’t get it. This morning I responded to a poll in the online blog of the Association of Mature American Citizens (AMAC, the conservative answer to AARP) regarding cursive handwriting. Specifically: “Cursive writing (“handwriting”) has been on the decline for over a decade, though 21 states still mandate it in their curriculums. Should it still be taught?”
I found myself in the distinct minority by voting “No.” An overwhelming majority of respondents think cursive is necessary to read historical documents and foster critical thinking by 50 to 1. I know many of you will agree with that view; you will insist that the curricula of our old school days were more effective in training young minds and that cursive is an essential aspect of that.
But I simply do not agree. And, in a significant way, I have made my living by writing. I have been the author or coauthor of some 270 peer-reviewed scientific publications and 10 books, along with a handful of patents. And since 1983, all were done on some form of computer or another device that is not a pen. Admittedly, my handwriting was the despair of my parents and teachers.
Sure, I have jotted notes by hand. I have a file cabinet of my notes from grad school, and my lab notebooks were all handwritten. In some cases, such as with a potential patentable invention, such notebook entries were punctuated by a witness who had to attest in (hand)writing: “read and understood.”
But the vast majority of my written output had to be electronic, or my publishers would have thrown it back in my face! That’s just the simple reality. This got me thinking about some of the other anachronisms of my schooling, distinct from my education.
As the child of an educator, there are multiple reasons to learn cursive. The first is brain development. Small motor control in the fingers is another, which as a craft artist I can attest is necessary. Another is notation retention when things are written down. Of course, I have what has been described as pretty handwriting, so I’m biased.

HEBREWS 13:1-8
1Let brotherly love continue. 2Do not neglect to show hospitality to strangers, for thereby some have entertained angels unawares. 3Remember those who are in prison, as though in prison with them; and those who are ill-treated, since you also are in the body. 4Let marriage be held in honor among all, and let the marriage bed be undefiled; for God will judge the immoral and adulterous. 5Keep your life free from love of money, and be content with what you have; for he has said, “I will never fail you nor forsake you.” 6Hence we can confidently say, “The Lord is my helper, I will not be afraid; what can man do to me?” 7Remember your leaders, those who spoke to you the word of God; consider the outcome of their life, and imitate their faith. 8Jesus Christ is the same yesterday and today and for ever.
ROMANS 5:1-5
1Therefore, since we are justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ. 2Through him we have obtained access to this grace in which we stand, and we rejoice in our hope of sharing the glory of God. 3More than that, we rejoice in our sufferings, knowing that suffering produces endurance, 4and endurance produces character, and character produces hope, 5and hope does not disappoint us, because God’s love has been poured into our hearts through the Holy Spirit which has been given to us.
PSALMS 117:1-2
1Praise the LORD, all nations! Extol him, all peoples! 2For great is his steadfast love toward us; and the faithfulness of the LORD endures for ever. Praise the LORD!
MARK 16:15-20
15And he said to them, “Go into all the world and preach the gospel to the whole creation. 16He who believes and is baptized will be saved; but he who does not believe will be condemned. 17And these signs will accompany those who believe: in my name they will cast out demons; they will speak in new tongues; 18they will pick up serpents, and if they drink any deadly thing, it will not hurt them; they will lay their hands on the sick, and they will recover.” 19So then the Lord Jesus, after he had spoken to them, was taken up into heaven, and sat down at the right hand of God. 20And they went forth and preached everywhere, while the Lord worked with them and confirmed the message by the signs that attended it. Amen.

Have a good weekend!
On this day…February 3rd 1966
First Soft Landing on the Moon
February 3nd 1966 marks the first soft landing on the moon by the Soviet Luna 9 spacecraft. Luna 9 arrived three years before the American manned Apollo mission, using a landing bag to survive an impact that had destroyed all previous craft. It was the twelfth attempt at a soft-landing by the Soviet Union, and the last time the USSR could be said to be beating the USA in the Space Race.
This right here, that you posted, is critical:

More Than 4 in 10 Republicans and a Third of Parents Now Oppose Schools Requiring Children to Get Vaccinated for Measles and Other Illness, Up Since the COVID-19 Pandemic Began
If we have effective anti-viral drugs, why do we need vaccines?
#################
They’re moving everything to mRNA. NOBODY should be taking mRNA.
If you do not KNOW that a shot is not mRNA – if they don’t HAND YOU THE BOX – do not take the vaccine. Neither take anything with the spike protein in it.
This has probably been covered, but I wouldn’t know precisely what to look for on the vax insert, and sometimes things have multiple names.
Yes, it’s tricky. One HAS to look at either the box or the product circular. My recommendation is to stall, don’t get the vaccine, get the name of the product being offered, and look it up online at home.
Somebody handy with their phone could do it in a few minutes at the doctor, but it’s important to be thorough.
Here is the Pfizer insert.
https://labeling.pfizer.com/ShowLabeling.aspx?id=16351&format=pdf
It mentions mRNA 7 times. You can see it especially in the “description” of the vaccine.
Odd that it only says what the stopper isn’t made of.
It shows how bass-ackwards everything is in Government Scienceville. It makes sense in some ways – latex is what most people are allergic to – but they could at least generically describe the polymer type of the stopper without too much interference in business.
The tromethamine (both plain and as its hydrochloride) is a pale and nearly worthless attempt to alleviate the heart damage from the jab.
Thank you!
COMIRNATY is the FDA approved version that is still NOT AVAILABLE IN THE UNITED STATES. Right? Thus, that is NOT the version Americans receive.
AND
The Booster s/b a completely different formula. Has Delta plus Omni strains. Should replace Comirnaty. All Comirnaty doses should be trashed by now.
All, mRNA Injections should be trashed.
AMEN!!
TBH, I never believed ANYTHING about the whole “Comirnaty Shuffle” – the whole thing was theater for Pfizer to appear to technically have obeyed laws and regulations, and for FDA to appear to have enforced them.
Bait and Switch to make everyone think jabs were approved to entice more to take w/o reading the fine print. PROPAGANDA.
And I appear like a rich young hunk.
….. wait ……. that can’t be right ……..

What W0lf says .. 😎👍‼️
If you are over 20, why are you taking a vaccine of any sort? If you have to do International travel I see it for cholera, yellow fever. But that is an obvious choice that has to made with that travel. But if you are staying in the U.S there is no need. And the flu shot is not a vax either but why take that? It is only partially effective if at all.
AMEN!
You are much better off taking Vit D3 + K2, Vit C, Vit E…. Selenium, Zinc and QUercitin all through the flu season. If you start having a scratch though ==> gargle, netti-pot. Also include an antihistamine.
Remember a VACCINE is based on IMMUNE RESPONSE, so just skip the stupid vaccine.
Cholera, (bacterium Vibrio cholerae) is from infected food and water. Yellow fever is a virus from mosquito bites.
Given Covid Clot Shots & Pilots PLUS Grope-N-Fly PLUS what my ex-company was doing to aircraft turbine blades… THERE IS NO WAY ON GOD’s GREEN EARTH, I AM EVER GETTING IN A PLANE AGAIN!
Pills, potions and witches brews won’t save you. Eat healthy and be fit. You will get exposed to unhealthy people and you will catch some stuff. If you are healthy you can easily handle it.
I fly all the time. If you want to stay safe. Don’t drive.
You did not see the test results, I did.
There was a $52,000,000 fine in one case. It was for an Air Force aircraft. I can no longer find any reference to the 3 commercial aircraft that were traced back to my ex-company.
When turbines fail it can be pretty impressive. I have been at several teardowns of power turbines that have come apart. Ten rows of blades taken down to the stubs.
Still, based on how things are maintained these days, and the odds of failure per miles flown. Cannot get much better.
The problem was an impurity in the ceramic used in the mold that leached into the steel of the blade making it fail a lot sooner than expected.
3 aircraft went down BEFORE I was hired. The old QA manager slipped sideways into another job and they hired me. About a year later I caught the cheating on the Cert. of Analysis saying the impurity was not present.
“…Pills, potions and witches brews won’t save you….“
I thought about it and I disagree.
For those of us who are hypo-glycemic fructose and starches are a no-no. I had 1/2 of a tangerine this morning and could barely keep my eyes open…. And then there are allergies… 🙄 and being a small older female.
Older folks need MORE nutrients but are also more prone to gain weight. We are also less likely to eat correctly due to lethargy and no one much to cook for.
So yes, I WILL CONTINUE ‘“…Pills, potions and witches brews…” because my experience shows me they WORK.
IF you can get all the nutrients you need from food more power to you. I CAN NOT.
The problem is your diet. Fix that, you will fix most of your issues. Most people won’t because they like their goodies.
If supplements work. Great. But it is not the root issue.
Although I have a sweet tooth, I quit having sweets in the home at age 19. Beside, given a choice I rather have a steak than a candy bar and at today’s prices the steak is actually CHEAPER per pound. 🤓 I can not think of the last time I had a piece of pie…. I went to a good brand of tea + cream instead of a common brand plus sugar or honey, so long ago I can not remember. Before that milk was my drink of choice until I had problems with lactose. I also quit eating most fruit because of the Hypoglycemia. Heck the carbs in a handful of almonds I had for a snack earlier today made me dizzy .. ALMONDS for crying out loud!
So no my diet is not a problem since, given I can not eat NaCl or carbs, I am stuck with meat/fish and non-starchy veggies prepared at home or a pay a price shortly after I cheat.
Oh and wheat? forget it! Instant acid reflux.
Locally, we are seeing head-on collisions daily now. Something to consider is why.
Clot shot heart problems maybe?
More pilots are purebloods than are shot up, I understand. This is why there are two on every flight, and don’t think that the pilots will allow that to change.
That’s good to know.
IMO there was some leakage of classified information about the death shots from “super-secret DARPA depop world” to “super-secret test pilot space world” that then got into military and civilian pilot world, which upped their cultural avoidance of the jabs.
That’s very good to hear, thanks W0lf … 🤨🤚.
Seriously? I mean, no
shitkidding, seriously?IF true, the airlines won’t allow that to change. Can’t have airliners having a case of
SADSSCS – Sudden Crash Syndrome.So, we are to believe the airlines schedule, around vaxed and pureblood pilots.
^^^ Is there a source that can be shared?
NOT holding my for the source. (It’s a SECRET) /s
Thank God for that.
There you go again with your pesky questions. 🙃
Maybe we should EXPAND the Injection concern beyond vaccinations.
Maybe our concern to avoid mRNA, INCLUDES ALL Injections.
Admittedly, not the sharpest tool in the shed. Guessing mRNA could be used in all injections, sprays…
Personally, I literally, do NOT trust medical world.
Correct. I only go to the doctors when I want to get some test that I want done. When they ask about anything else the answer is no. I do not do physicals either. Stay out of their system.
I agree. I just think the information is important to have, possibly to share with others as well.
It IS important to have, share…
In total agreement Wolf, this I am afraid is going to get worse if people don’t WTFU.
So moving everything to mRNA explains the push to have children Covid vaxxed. They will have the “portal” and then all the childhood/school required vaccines provide the “gene therapy”? Or is this too tinfoil hat?
Makes sense, kind of like a plug and play for vaccines. Just come in and get your yearly up date.
Yup. I’m pretty certain that they’re just starting here with this shot.
A game of chance. Sorta like Russian Roulette.
Just come in and get your yearly up date. One of them will be the final nail in your coffin.
Spot on. One of several angles to mRNA JAB Everybody.
Worth repeating AND REMEMBER. 14 of 15 gotta go. <<< THIS.
YUP. Not tinfoil hat AT ALL. Just ask scientifically how one would go about “helping” humanity do all the “Harari / WEF” stuff – how to ACTUALLY implement it – and it MUST go through some kind of hack into the nucleus, and then into the genome, which is exactly what this tech does.
The problem is doing it to everybody. Without permission! Ridiculous!
I can see the scientific seeds of all this, and plenty more, in the response to Roswell, which shocked the hell out of secret science and military world. Among the top 10 goals from that, one would spawn MK Ultra and Elon’s neuralink stuff, another would spawn all the semiconductor tech and AI, while yet another would spawn “directed biology”, which opens up the crap Harari is pushing. This was due to the initial assessment that the “little people” were highly adapted for space flight. But the problem is that because of too much secrecy, it’s all being done badly and wrongly, because at this stage, there is no reason to do this to everybody at this stage of the development. SEE THE TAGLINE OF THIS SITE.
“We do not believe any group of men adequate enough or wise enough to operate without scrutiny or without criticism. We know that the only way to avoid error is to detect it, that the only way to detect it is to be free to inquire. We know that in secrecy error undetected will flourish and subvert.” –J. Robert Oppenheimer
Brought to mind an advert for, if I recall wood varnish, the slogan being “it does what it says on the can”.
After what we’ve seen about the C19 jabs etc., I would doubt anything printed on the vial, or told to me at the surgery.
Slowly, and hopefully surely, the sleeper awakens.
^^^ 100%
Includes nasal spray.
If not already happening, guessing mRNA crap will be in pills.
“…guessing mRNA crap will be in pills….”
I do not think so. The stomach acids would destroy it. That is why the inhaler or shots.
Ah. Slow guy just caught up. Thanks.
DPat, I don’t remember that skating program either, but what fun to see it!! They were a great pair, and this routine was spectacular in its technique! BOO to the judges.
“84.5% of Americans are now “anti-vaxxers” according to the contemporary definition”
_____________
Copycats.
THAT is huge. And the industry is pushing mRNA vaccines as hard as they can.
Watch, next they’ll say 84.5% of Americans now believe most of the conspiracy theories they laughed at less than a year ago.
It’s total cultural appropriation.
They should get their own hobby 🤣
They lost the plot people are not buying it anymore.
Well … good for them, the pushy rotters.
The herd is, thankfully, shifting perspective.
A young black woman told me today in Columbus “that the jab is de population”.
She said “people think she is nuts that is why she does not speak about it”. Somehow she trusted me to tell me so. I ask her “why she trust me? ” She said “you are spiritual I can see it in your eyes they sparkle do not look dead” . I think that woman has a sweet spirit.
There is hope people see truth and truth evokes among people trust and unity.
WOW. It’s understood now. Not everybody, but many.
More and more are getting there 🙂
I’m happy to hear that.
I was surprised. Somehow people trust me to speak up. Maybe I have MAGA written on me 🙂
I’m sure your kindness shines from you like a bright light.
I never see what others see . Maybe that is good 🙂
🙂
That is great news. Hope that gal speaks up more.
I see her again next air appointment she washed my hair. She was so glad someone understood her concern and what she knows without telling her she is crazy. I assured her that I get it all the time 🙂 She just moved to OH from Mississippi .
Thank you, DePat, for a lovely and stirring Friday thread.

I loved the baby lion and tiger, and the kissing cheetah.
And the guys in tires…🤪
A fun little bit of feline trivia…..
A liger is the spawn of a male lion and a female tigress. Both species are apex predators, and are well-known for being “big cats”. This is typically moderated by a gene carried by female lions and male tigers. Ligers, then, are the biggest of the big cats because their size is unmoderated through the most common genes.
This is Hercules, a liger, at 922 pounds —
That’s a big cat.
It’s the largest modern cat. Smilodon populator — the largest of the three species of “sabre-toothed cats” in the New World (the South American version) was about the same size — and the largest cat that ever lived.
Male ligers are sterile, while female ligers can be fertile.
They are really, really big.
It’s likely that there are only about a hundred in the world.
“This is Hercules, a liger, at 922 pounds —”

I love it! So many of the pics have humans interacting with the big cats. That would be such an awesome experience, but those people probably raised the cats from the cradle, so to speak.

I’ll be slow guy today – what are those two brown things between the jackasses?
I take it to mean joined at the hip. They look like suction cups… 😂
Intertubez.
Siamese Twins – joined at the hip!
ThanQ to everyone.
That was EXCELLENT WORK!!!
The guy is a hero. I kept wondering how he kept from slipping off the window, and then I noticed that he holds on with his left hand the whole time. So he caught and handed the child off with just his right hand.
Yes! It’s important to note what he did, which is solid mountain-climbing technique (and also basic rock-climbing technique).
The most important thing was keeping his weight on his feet, followed by the solid left handhold, and then making the child fall to be caught in a solid stance.
“cranked out the window to the perfect angle, so he could rest his weight mostly on his feet;”
____________
Yeah, BUT…
We can be sure that hinge wasn’t designed to hold a man’s body weight, and if it collapses while his FINGERS are between the window and window frame, those fingers are gone, the man is gone, and the child is gone.
That was NVTS nuts!
A second person was inside pushing out on the bottom of the window. So the force was not straight down but was transferred to the second person at an angle. Had the second person lost his footing, I doubt the window would support first man’s weight.
When the child was handed in, the second person also performed a one-handed grab. The other hand kept force on the window frame.
Yes – the second person pushing OUT on the window was very helpful, by preventing torques from developing on the supports for the window up above. Those are what could have really messed things up. So with forces perpendicular to the window balanced, a somewhat reduced weight of the guy was directed in the line of the window itself, and those hinges performed admirably, IMO, supporting a sizable fraction of his weight!
Sometimes you just gotta think these things through. 🤔
Sometimes it takes some nuts . . .
Okay, I have a better idea. Someone run to the room ABOVE the child, and pull him UP… 😲
Talk about doing something the hardest and most crazy dangerous way… 😂
Well they managed to open every window below the kid, so yeah, why not go there and simply pull the kid in. This looks a bit like a stunt, but a nice stunt if that is what it is.
I took it as a stunt.
Doubtful it was a real kid.
Real kid or not, also figure the guy hanging out the window IS tethered.
There is no window above the child.
I think he means the one the kid is hanging out of. Not really hanging, he’s standing on the lip of the lower window. At least till just before the guy is ready to grab him, then feet slip off. But definitely a kid.
I guess they couldn’t get into the kids room?
Home Alone?
Yup!!!
Yeah, but however they died, at least the jab didn’t get ’em 👍
But it may have been something very transmissible, just look how many stones they piled on top of them 😀
That was someone’s mother in law…when she died, they took no chances.

GOP Sens. Introduce National Reciprocity for Concealed Carry
https://www.breitbart.com/politics/2023/02/02/gop-sens-introduce-national-reciprocity-for-concealed-carry/
Support for this kind of thing is what keeps people voting for RINOs like Cornyn, Lindsey Graham, the late John McCain, etc.
This definitely provides an advantage to having a CC permit, even if you live in a Constitutional carry state.
Cracking up here.
Yea, National Reciprocity is a good thing.
Yea, we shouldn’t need National Reciprocity, IF 2A were honored.
Please do RECALL. ~Six years ago, the House under dirt bag Eddie Munster, PASSED National Reciprocity.
Agree! That’s what my comment about Cornyn meant. They do things to make themselves look good without any real results.
Yea. Knowing how thorough you are, I should have connected those dots, when you named Cornyn twice.

There is NO WAY that ChatGPT could do this now. But assuming this is real, it’s an example of the based nature of free AI.
In my copious free time, I want to create an account with ChatGPT and see what questions I can ask that’ll really fry its circuits.
The best trick I’ve seen is to premise the question in a way that ChatGPT evades responsibility for the answer. In that way, it will tell the truth.
One thing I can/will tell folks . . . they don’t let the general public near the real powerful stuff. Whatever capabilities they’re showing off are far behind the IC/DoD curve.
Yep. Pretty sure they tested out one of the first advanced prototypes here. What was her name?
Its name, alias?
Yes, alias would be better but she did have a name here. People even commented on her very likely being a bot on more than one occasion.
Yes, my bad. I thought the inference was that poster actually AI, bot, not a person.
Alias incorrectly used in my post above.
I hope you will give us reports! 😎
I remember seeing that when Chat was first revealed.
Good! Thanks!
I’m guessing it’s not real, that it was definitely made up by a person 😁
Was it you?
No, not me.
I could do it, though.
I just don’t think the machine can 😁
Brilliant.
Pleasant birthday wishes for your father, WSB.
Robert Malone and Naomi Wolf are all over the third Project Veritas / Pfizer release.
Very worthwhile read on Malone’s substack! Again, he’s saying take these things off the market.

Yours Truly: Hmmm, looks like perhaps Pfizer-BioNTech got their “damage control team” up and running right away?
They didn’t fire him and are covering up instead.
Promoted AND given a bonus. Told to:
Gail Combs has an important post coming out at noon, so be sure to come back in the afternoon to check it out.
When I realized that “malinformation” can include pure truth, fully in context, which “harms organizations”, I realized how immoral our government has become.
Even Obama stated and ordered that evidence of crimes is not protected by classification, so this doesn’t even fully apply to classified information.
Selective control of truth, or weaponizing truth to release it as a weapon.
In some cases it’s not enough that the truth comes out – they have to maximize the blast radius in the process.
Typically in an asymmetric manner. The truth comes out about A and is amplified with outrage. The truth comes out about B and while not suppressed, is yawned at. Redirecting the costs onto A and minimizing costs on B – even though “the truth came out”.
“…The truth comes out about B…” late on Friday night or as a minor paragraph somewhere in the middle of the newspaper.
As previously mentioned, Gerard Vanderleun, one of the old-school bloggers from a ways back, recently passed away — and Neo disclosed that they had a long-time hidden relationship. Here’s one of the things he wrote about her —

Back at the Fripp estate —
My dad used to say, when confronted with WGTTs on a singer, “She can’t carry a tune but she certainly sings well otherwise.” My mother would roll her eyes.
Not the usual Gonzalo Lira video — this is a response to Scott Adams’ plaintive wail asking “how did people know besides me when I took the jab?”
It’s not going to educate any of us, but it might help talk to those who took the jab.
3:42 “some medicine that been around for 50 years”, and they made it unavailable. 😡
Yeah, that was a giant red clue.
Hi, we’re the government, we’re here to help. This HCQ and IVM work, so we’re going to make that as hard to get as possible.
But here, try this untested vaccine gene therapy that actually has been tested since the 1990s but always kills everything we inject it into.

This is an interesting BIo by his cousin: LINK
Interesting AND quite telling.
Just about everything he said was right on, just “less than” most people here.
Where he was hesitant for what seem like perfectly good reasons, and decided against it — most people here were “hell no!” 😂 👍
So there are at least three clear responses to Big Daddy Gov’t trying to govern harder.
1) hell no, not a chance
2) that seems unwise so I’m not going to comply (e.g., Gonzalo Lira)
3) which arm do you want to jam the poison in? (Clott Adams)
There is enough overlap that I can relate to number 2.
But number 3 might as well be an alien species.
Then, the aliens have landed AND ARE 70% of the American population.
Illegals don’t count cuz, the only free shit illegals do NOT get is, JABBED.

Whew, you weren’t kidding DP, there’s a lot packed in this daily.
It’ll definitely carry me over to Tuesday!
Spitting fire and brimstone!!!
well, Kevin is your ‘boy’ …
you “pushed” for him, really hard.
And you pushed for Ronna… really hard.
Tell him the truth, pr. No quarter.

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.
PLEASE PRAY FOR ONE ANOTHER

STURM UND DRANG AND CHINESE BALLOONS2 February 2023 by Larry Johnson 93 Comments
U.S military commands NORAD and NORTHCOM have been soiling themselves during the last 48 hours because a Chinese spy balloon is flying over the United States mainland. The U.S. military initially recommended a shoot down and Joe Biden gave the greenlight. But cooler heads prevailed, in part because there was concern expressed within the military chain of command that falling debris could kill Americans on the ground, and the U.S. opted to let it fly.
The war party in the United States is apoplectic. The media is reporting that the military ignored Biden’s order. Jesse Waters on Fox News — he normally is a strident Biden critic — is openly siding with Biden and condemning the military for not popping that balloon.
This is madness. The countries with military satellites circling the globe do not have a formal agreement under international law defining where earth’s atmosphere ends and space begins. (More about that in a bit.)
Let me start with this question — what is the difference between a Chinese spy balloon flying at 55 miles above the earth collecting intelligence via sensors and cameras and Chinese spy satellite flying at 70 miles above the earth collecting intelligence with sensors and cameras? Simply a matter of altitude.
Currently there is a de facto assumption by most nations that the line dividing earth atmosphere from space is 60 miles above the earth:
Con’t reading at link… posted at top … comments should be interesting
Okay … don’t want to take the time to read?
Here’s Larry’s almost last word ,,, the last is actually on balloons PERIOD!
I think the Chinese are testing the definition of what constitutes acceptable overhead surveillance and may be trying to create a predicate for destroying our satellites if we go after their balloons. The United States has long resisted any legal definition of outer space to avoid restrictions on high-altitude military activities. Advances on the technological front involving satellites and other aerial collection systems has created a very murky area that is not defined by law or treaty when it comes to intelligence collection. At least none that I am aware of.

Excellent point. When you are the bully of the playground (USA), your power lasts until the first kid punches you. And even if you win? It starts the conversation. And if you lose? Ratpack time.
