Gees...sorry about the spam comments on the last post. Miss a few days of blogging and those guys sneak right in there, don't they? I hope no one contacted those pesky faith healers with strange names who can cure breast cancer. We don't need them.
Our president claims:
"We've taken people that were dead. We had a person given the last rites -- gone, the kids are crying and everything -- and started them on this drug. And the person became better. It works."
Of corse this miracle drug is not named and no one has left their death bed to testify to this miracle.
It doesn't matter, people will still flock to the golden idol to pray.

Sorry for going silent. It is a busy time. My daughter is flying home this month. I am planning a small wedding reception for my daughter and her husband. My son and his family will be coming home.
After this is done, we have a trip that will take us up into Canada for a week.
In the midst of this, because Tim cannot and will not wait, we are clearing out the old house to put on the market.
It is a crazy time, but no matter how crazy it gets, it is crazier in Washington. This is not comforting.
We have had two hard frosts in the last two days. It dropped to 25° two days ago. Will summer ever get (and stay) here.
Posting may be light for the month of May. Ignore the spam. Don't contact any African faith healers. Ask for the revival/Lazarus drugs instead.
How nice that you have a family celebration to look forward to!
ReplyDeleteThe next little while sounds like it will be fun. It would be nice to be near Canada for a visit.
ReplyDeleteI thought that golden idol was some kind of a joke. He really has gone round the bend. I am sure you will get a feeling of refreshment in Canada. Have fun. Gigi
ReplyDeletePeople will flock to that thing to piss on it when he is finally gone. Gigi
DeleteDebby you are too funny--not as funny as that golden idol, but still! You do sound like you have busy times ahead--you should consider setting your blog's settings to not automatically publish after 24 hours, that way these spammers can't go into old blogs and leave their crud (which many do).
ReplyDeleteDo you get a lot of spam on here? I have never noticed.
ReplyDeleteIt goes in fits. I had 6 today. I remove the comments. This time It was purported to be from two different people but very similar claims of miracle cancer cures. You know. I found no information on that 100 year old sand castle. This is disappointing.
DeleteI am just thinking about the best way to place the cable to topple over the wretched statue.
ReplyDeleteEnjoy your family time!! Congratulations to your daughter and husband! Enjoy the time with your son's family! And a trip to Canada sounds wonderful (please come back). Good luck with the sale of your house - we had two go up for sale on our street and one sold in 4 days, the other in 10 days. That will be one less property for you guys to take care of. Darn those stinking scammers.
ReplyDeleteI'm glad the busy stuff is about family and parties and trips. That's a good busy. I also will not respond to any Nigerian princes.
ReplyDeleteI promise not to hire African faith healers and will not engage in any deals with Nigerian princes who promise me millions in exchange for a "small" investment. A wedding reception for your daughter will be lovely, especially since your son and his family will be there. You don't have to worry about me praying to any golden idols. 86 47

Ya know, ya just can't make this shit up, that riff about bringing a dead person back to life was just bizarre, one does wonder what goes on in what's left of his brain. And then there's that horrific statue of himself. Have a wonderful time with your family, we'll all be here when you get back.
ReplyDeleteI hope you have a wonderful time with family.
ReplyDeleteMy go to is dark humour and when that doesn't work, I cry. But at least I'm consistent:)
Busy you will be! Used to be that folks put their house up for sale at the beginning of summer, so that the next family could move in before fall school starts. Good luck! Linda in Kansas
ReplyDeletefamily stuff and trips...all good! Enjoy yourself
ReplyDeleteDealing with the old house? I'm with Tim on that!! But difficult when yo're busy with everything else.
Spam??...that is why I approve comments...and seem to have had less now that I do that.
I had a similar spammer too. Plus the IWANTTODIE. I rather uncharitably thought, well just get on with it then!
ReplyDeleteA good time of year to sell a house, but sounds like your husband has decided on a whim, rather than a set plan of action and very poor timing on his part.
I hope all the planning goes well and the wedding is wonderful, Canada ditto.
I hadn't heard about this latest madness. I was really disturbed by his explanation of what he means by 'the sea' though. That guy definitely has dementia.
ReplyDeleteI hope the wedding goes well. Enjoy your break in Canada.
Happy May to you, hope everything goes to plan. Enjoy.
ReplyDeleteEnjoy the family events, ignore the "noise" and have fun! As to my last marble, I think it's rolling around loose in my head.
ReplyDeleteHave a good time and laugh a lot! Ignore the rest!
ReplyDeleteWe are in the dark days of the hell of a leader's insanity.
ReplyDeleteNever saw this one coming.
Meanwhile- enjoy your life as best you can and love the ones you love with all your heart. I guess that's what we can do.
Spammers can be very sneaky.
ReplyDeleteI think I've just had the experience of AI-produced spam. It leaves a comment suggesting it's clearly read the post, followed by its business link.
ReplyDeleteBefore I moderated all comments on my blog, the spiteful left-behind-wife of a local man left nasty libelous remarks about him in the comments. I wasn't taking that risk again. Also, there's far less spam once the bots know their leavings won't be approved.
Ooh how exciting - wedding reception, family gathering, Canada calling, house selling - sounds like a very busy time. Enjoy it all!
ReplyDeleteHave a good time in Canada and with family ahead of that. When we were last there we apologized for our "President", and Canadians didn't hold it against us.
ReplyDeleteMy marbles are rolling away as we speak . . .
ReplyDeleteEnjoy your family gatherings, and your trip to Canada. We'll be here when you get back.
I love Canada , and have never been
ReplyDeleteWell...when you get back on your feet, you should plan a trip! I am sure there are many Canadian readers who would jump at the chance to meet the famous John Gray!
ReplyDeleteEnjoy your family time and well-earned travels. Love and happiness fights Donnie Darko every day.

Between a wedding reception, family visiting, a trip to Canada, AND clearing out a house, I’m tired just reading about it. 🤣 Good luck with the 'Lazarus drug' hunt—I think we could all use a bit of that energy right now. Safe travels to your daughter and son, and I hope you finally get some actual spring weather soon!
ReplyDeleteYou make me laugh so hard! And yet it is all annoying and painful too, isn't it. Still, you have good things to look forward to. Ans surely the frost will end soon! Some places not far from us had frost last night! Crazy.
ReplyDeleteBe good to yourself, my friend. We will look forward to anything you have time post.
Wait, we have a drug that brings dead people back to life? How did I miss THIS news?!
ReplyDeleteI had those spammers too. They must have been making the rounds. I wonder how they got past the Blogger spam filters, which somehow manage to snag my actual friends while letting through people peddling breast cancer and herpes cures?
You DO have a lot on your plate at the moment. Make some time for yourself too!
