Been offline for almost three days. Back on after Spectrum replaced the modem. Hurrah. Being without Internet is a lot like going cold-turkey off an addictive drug.

Ignoring public opinion

Posted on October 31, 2019 | 2 comments

I can’t get too riled up about the Austin Independent School District’s new sex education curriculum, not even the replacing of the terms mom and dad with “parents” since there will inevitably be a few kids who have two gay parents, male or female.

So what’s the problem? The real issue for me is the way the school board ignored 7,000 signatures on a petition to quash the new curriculum. They didn’t modify it at all and they voted for it unanimously. Screw you, voters. We’re in charge here.

No trick or treating for us

Posted on October 31, 2019 | Comments Off on No trick or treating for us

At least we haven’t planned on it. Haven’t bought any candy at all. Though I’m sure some young children live in the Neely’s Canyon condos, we don’t expect them to show up tonight.

Trick or treaters were diminishing each year at Rancho Roly Poly, from little ones in store-bought costumes in the early years to teenagers often with no costume, just a hand out.

We could discourage them by cutting off the porch light. Here we can’t control the front door light, which cuts on and off only in response to motion or the lack of it.

Prince of the Canyon

A stud muffin of Neely’s Canyon’s white-tailed deer, come to see about our feeding of carrots and peanuts to his herd. He grew the big, trophy horns thanks to the ‘no  hunting’ law in the Austin city neighborhood which overlooks the city- and county-managed Balcones Canyonlands Preserve.

Defend yourself, support Trump

Posted on October 29, 2019 | 2 comments

“We now know that the FBI set up an ambush for Lt. Gen. Mike Flynn, President Trump’s first national security adviser, and that FBI lawyers fudged the interview (the Section 302 report) to make it appear that Flynn was lying,..

“The power and capacity to abuse the power of America’s intelligence services has grown to the point that it endangers our freedoms. Make no mistake: If they can railroad the president of the United States and members of the cabinet, they can do pretty much anything they want to you. Defend your freedoms. Support President Trump.”

Al-Baghdadi, Rapist

Posted on October 28, 2019 | Comments Off on Al-Baghdadi, Rapist

“He spent his days as leader raping women the group had kidnapped while his men died on the front lines.”

A far cry from the anti-Trump NYSlimes WashPost characterization of the slain ISIS leader as an “austere religious scholar.”

Rule 5: Girl with guns

I doubt she’ll be surrendering her firearms under a Beto-inspired (and Warren-backed) country-wide Dimocrat confiscation.
