I had planned (and wanted) to do a nice post about 2024 and how I hoped 2025 continued things for us all. Instead, I woke up to the terrorist attack in New Orleans, and am watching things continue to unravel here and around the world.
The attacks on NYE in Europe were no surprise; rather, the only surprise is that they were not larger and worse. Notice those countries where such did not take place or were shut down fast. Then notice where they weren’t. Not a surprise.
I’m trying to hold to the 24-hour rule on New Orleans, as things are in flux. Since the Stasi got involved, and the agent in mouthpiece declared it not to be terrorism (just before getting overridden apparently), I am going to take things with a bit of salt. Perhaps a tun would be a good place to start. And, yes, that is the proper spelling for what I have in mind.
Now, however, a cybertruck has exploded in front of the Trump Hotel in Vegas. Could you be any more obvious?
Heads on a swivel folks, the next twenty or so days are going to be a bit turbulent methinks. Be prepared.
Remember, keep your friends and family close, and your things where you can find them in the dark.
Getting hit by lightning is not fun! If you would like to help me in my recovery efforts, which include moving once we have medical issues cleared up, feel free to hit the fundraiser at A New Life on GiveSendGo, use the options in the Tip Jar in the upper right, or drop me a line to discuss other methods. There is also the Amazon Wish List in the Bard’s Jar. It is thanks to your gifts and prayers that I am still going. Thank you.
SA Duncan followed the party line in discussing the incident. She could have hedged her bets in the first press conference. I assume, of course, that she saw the same things we all saw, and understood the probability that it was Islamic in nature.
