In Case You've Wondered

My blog is where my wandering thoughts are interspersed with stuff I made up. So, if while reading you find yourself confused about the context, don't feel alone. I get confused, too.

If you're here for the stories, I started another blog: scratchingforchange.blogspot.com

One other thing: sometimes I write words you refuse to use in front of children, or polite company, unless you have a flat tire, or hit your thumb with a hammer.

I don't use them to offend; I use them to embellish.

After Effects

I was thinking about my doctors, and realized my trust of the medical profession has fallen to what I consider an unacceptable level. I have good doctors, but with something they don't deal with, my apprehension about new doctors is high. The covid debacle is the reason for this distrust, and I wonder how the medical profession can redeem the faith of people. 

The same distrust is toward "scientists" that sold their soul to research that once would have been shown as bunk, and the scientists shamed for their actions. Many people lost their lives due to the "professional" opinions of "experts". That, and financial ruin due to these people almost hard to envision. With unscrupulous politicians, and ignorant people, added to the problem, it will take some harsh punishments for some involved for some to realize how terrible Covid became. The disease was nothing compared to the "cure". In my opinion, some of those involved are guilty of murder, and should be prosecuted for the crime; Fauci in particular. He is the same caliber as the worst the Nazis used, and a hanging is justified.

How About Today?

I think there are many like me that want to see someone facing punishment for their crimes while employed by the U.S. Government, or using tax dollars. Today is a good day to see a news report that the arrests have started. I don't know about you, but I have a feeling that won't happen.

No Deal

Zelensky burned his butt, and Ukraine will suffer the consequences. He lost today by showing his desperation. Any deal from this point on will not be in the favor of his country, and Europe will either cover his costs, let him flounder, or make the bigger mistake of causing problems with the United States. From my point of view, the grift is over, money laundering ended, and Ukraine just lost...again.

Probably Won't Reveal What People Want Revealed

Pam Bondi gave select reporters binders with information on Epstein. I'm sure there will be some revelations, but there won't be the "gotcha" information wanted by many. Why? If you were going to prosecute, releasing information of those facing prosecution will lead to a circus, civil suits, and a defense that will destroy any conviction. Those involved ( from what was gathered from the flight lists to Epstein's island), have resources, damning information on others, and prosecuting them will require evidence that can't be thrown out due to technicalities. It's a shame, but the opportunity to strike when the iron was hot is gone. 

Was there an intentional effort to keep powerful people from being prosecuted? That's a question that requires an answer. Avoiding the responsibility of stopping sex crimes involving minors is a crime that demands a severe punishment after conviction. This too will take time, since there are no convictions to use as evidence against those that covered for the crime. It's a mess, will take a long time to prosecute, and those involved may not even be in the United States to face justice. When you add the years that passed, how time removes details of events, and how attorneys can twist facts to their advantage, the justice required may never happen. Some of those involved may not want to be dragged through the legal process and forcing them to appear in court as traumatic as the criminal event.

Ghislaine Maxwell knows much of what went on. Supposedly, she's still in prison, and has a ton of civil suits against her. Will she ever tell? That could be dangerous, and being in prison isn't as safe as some may think. (Ask Epstein...of that's right, you can't) She'll probably go to her grave never exposing those that should be in prison, but maybe she will. I doubt it.

Physic, Energy and Potatoes

I like potatoes. I like them cooked to where a small amount of salt is all needed for seasoning, and covered with butter, sour cream, chives, bacon and cheddar cheese. They're good, and I decided to write this post after reading on how potatoes are fattening. 

Potatoes have potential energy. We use the chemical energy as food, which is not only tasty, it offers some important vitamins and minerals. Eat a tiny amount, and there isn't enough energy to keep you alive. Eat too much potato, and you eventually accumulate fat you don't need. Otherwise, a potato isn't fattening; your appetite is fattening, and thinking you just need to avoid potatoes doesn't remove the fact eating potatoes has nothing to do with your weight gain. 

After thinking about this post, I started wondering just how much energy a potato has, if you could release it all at once. Would it just be small, bright light? Maybe a little more, such as a singed spot on a table? Or, would it take out the walls of a room, and scare the crap out of everyone within hearing distance? I made a half-hearted effort to find out, but became frustrated after seeing so many articles on how a potato can be used like a battery to light small light bulbs used for headlights on gnats. I guess I'll never know.
