If we believed everything we saw in advertising, we would probably all be dead. Or worse, vaccinated.
These days, for the vaccinated, it must be like waiting to die every day. I truly feel sorry for them because they believed in what they were told by the government and the media. But it is not a new phenomenon. It has been with us for a very long time.
Consider this.

Gazing at an eclipse of the moon some time ago, I was minded of the magnitude of Creation and my forthcoming interview with the Big Guy upstairs, at which I will have a lot of explaining to do. The following passed through my mind.
According to legend, St Augustine was walking along the beach pondering how in the Blessed Trinity there could be three persons in the one God, when he saw a small boy pouring buckets of seawater into a hole the young boy had dug in the sand. On asking the boy what he was doing, the boy told Augustine that he was pouring all of the ocean into the hole. On telling the boy that which he was trying to achieve was impossible, Augustine was told by the boy that he would pour all of the ocean into the hole before Augustine understood the mystery of the Trinity – then disappeared.

Nobody living today can remember two significant events that occurred in September 1859. These events were separated by a 24 hour break. Our ever-dependable friend the sun, sent two "death rays" our way, sometimes referred to in technical jargon as CMEs, or Coronal Mass Ejections. Solar storms.
Humankind had not noticed, nor had they ever been affected by these regular solar events in the past, because they didn’t have a noticeable effect upon a world without electrical technology. CMEs were a hitherto unknown electromagnetic hazard waiting to shake hands with humanity, just as soon as we gained a certain level of electrical technical ability.

Superpowers are scrambling to control ‘mineral of the future’ supply chains
Lithium is the essential mineral for renewable energy resources, and is gearing up to become to the 21st century what coal was to the previous two centuries.
The mineral is the key material in producing lithium-ion batteries, which power everything from mobile phones to electric cars.

Yesterday, a little 3 year old visited a woman I know with unusual hair colour, (you. know who I mean ) and he knew exactly what he wanted.
At her front gate, there is a bell. It is rung when you visit her. It alerts her to the fact that a visitor is approaching, just in case she is having a kindy nap or is out in the backyard checking that there are no drones or balloons overhead.
I find it rather lovely that she thinks that this bell is her alert system. No doubt there are many burglars out there who are thoughtful enough to ring her bell and let her know that it is time to make haste and prepare for the oncoming wave of unexpected visitors.

In 1945, a Japanese Balloon Bomb Killed Six Americans, Five of Them Children, in Oregon.
The military kept the true story of their deaths, the only civilians to die at enemy hands on the U.S. mainland, under wraps.

The few wealthy countries pursuing the generation of electricity from wind turbines and solar panels while simultaneously moving to rid the world of fossil fuels have short memories of petrochemical products and human ingenuity being the reasons for the world populating from 1 to 8 billion in less than two hundred years.
Renewables may be able to generate intermittent electricity form breezes and sunshine, but they cannot replace what is manufactured from fossil fuels, that are demanded by lifestyles and economies around the world.
This whole spy balloon thing has me puzzled. If it was simply taking photographs, then it was doing nothing different to what satellites and drones have been doing for some time anyway. So what the hell was it - really?
Was it just a way of embarrassing America and showing the current administration up for the weak incompetent wokey idiots that they are? If so, it did a very good job. Never has America looked so weak and foolish as it does in early February 2023.
A giant balloon soaring across American airspace and they didn't shoot it down until it was out to sea. I wonder why?

In Australia and across the world, hard working ants are seeing a plague of grasshoppers - who consume at such a fierce rate of knots that a Canberra parliamentary smorgasbord would disappear faster than a fact in an ABC documentary about climate change.
And a Washington DC or a Wellington Beehive could cut off the food and shut down the bain marie faster than Hunter Biden issuing some pipes to use for rather strange reasons and his father shutting down pipes that could have saved America.
Let us be honest:

Maybe. just maybe, back in 1975, a little baby girl was born in a hospital somewhere, There was a storm, perhaps, at 5.36 am, and she was born. She was a pretty little thing. A bundle of love bound up in a fragile little package called a baby.
As her mother lay there, gazing with wonder into the eyes of this precious child, the father asked " what will we call her? "
The mother said " Shirley. After Shirley Temple " and that was that. Imagine that?
Without a genuine love for our forbears, how can we truly love - or even…
