OMG2

For lack of a better title.....

Impeachment Part Deux (that is French for two)

In the old days of government, we didn't impeach the President unless he really did something bad like high crimes and misdemeanors.  I believe that there have been only 3 in the history of our country to be impeached.  Simply being the President when the losing side wants someone else is not a crime.

Now we will have a second impeachment, trial, verdict, punishment, etc.  All of this to ensure that a man who was elected by the people to change Washington DC is never allowed to hold office again. This requires a felony conviction.

Is it legal to mandate that an individual cannot run for office?

What are they afraid of in Washington?  Draining the swamp?  And this is for both sides, both parties, Never Trumpers.  Status Quo is not a good thing.  Erasing the will of the people only makes them angry.  Telling everyone that you must speak correctly or else.  Sounds like the King.  Read the Declaration of Independence.

Take care of your own

My wife and I have discussed about and agree that we must come first, to also include our children.  All else is second.  We will take care of us and our needs before considering anything else or anyone else and there demands.

This may seem selfish and others may ask why not the rest first, why not everyone else first?  Well, if you don't take care of yourself first, you may not have the ability to take care of others.  I will have to draw the line at very immediate family.

Since our parents, grandparents, aunts, uncles, brother, etc. are dead that means our children are the the only immediate family.

Do for yourself

Our country has been reduced to a bunch of consumers.  We don't know how to make anything anymore.  We buy parts from overseas and assemble them here as a car.  A phone.  We hire out to everyone instead of doing ourselves.  Who knows how to maintain your car?  Fix your roof?  Build a new item to use in the house?

Become a manufacturer of something.  A niche item you thought about and maybe designed on the back of a napkin.  How do you do that when the only thing you know how to do is go buy another thing to replace the broke thing?

My mother-in-law's washer lasted for 30+ years.  The washer we have today replaces a washer designed to fail.  Can't find the parts for it and have no other choice but to replace it.  The control cards cost more than the whole washer.

What can I do?????

3D printing and CNC, along with a mini-lathe and drill-press is a way to run a garage manufacturing business.  A small workshop can produce wood, plastic, and metal parts or whole products using tools that may require an investment, but will return a salary.

Basic microcontrollers and learning a little code and electronics is the heart of the computer based machinery.  Robots that cook or clean use microcontrollers, stepper motors, servos and dedicated programs to figure out what to do.

Microcontrollers include Arduino, Raspberry PI, ESP8266, ESP32, as well as several others.  Language to define  the processes and control the computer are C, C++, Python, Basic, and some other scripting languages such as LUA and Javascript.

Your telephone runs a microcontroller processor Like the Raspberry PI uses.  You can write your own programs with Java for the Android operating system.  Then you can sell the app.  Look at all of the apps you download and buy.

You can probably tell that I am well into electronics.  I am a computer programmer and understand electronics and mechanics.  I have built 2 CNC machines to better understand how to use them and what parts can be homemade.  A good machine should be able to make parts for another machine.

Build better and people will seek out your product.  Build a better mousetrap and the people will beat a path to your door.  Much Success!

Be prepared

Stay away from crowds.

Put more, if you can, into your pantry and don't forget the personal items.

Keep an eye on what is really going on, not what the media approves for you to hear and see.  Seek out the truth.

Get your skill sets honed.  Create a niche for your skills.

Stay healthy and take your vitamins.

Keep your powder dry.

OMG1

There will be more OMG moments to come

What a start...

The whole farce in DC has been producing nonsense on all sides of the war.  Yes, a war.  Republicans are trying to back away from their party as if it were hijacked and they are just victims.  Remember the Never Trumpers?

Democrats are calling this a national tragedy.  What with the rioting and defacing of public property and breaking into buildings.  Wait, that was the BLM and Antifa "peaceful" riots this past year.  Hypocrisy.

I watched and shook may head.  I do want to know why the capitol police were in on this.  Why was Antifa and BLM in on this.  Maybe a setup.  A sucker punch.

Now there will be another impeachment.  What a joke.

I wonder if Biden will get a nobel prize for being elected president.  Then biden and obama can compare to see who's prize is bigger.

Money, Money, Money, Money, Money.

Now that the current administration is almost done, the flood gates (blocked by congress) will open up and money will pour out after the inauguration.  Watch for politicians blaming the previous administration for lack of helping the american people.  Watch the new president claim the moral high ground.

They are now here to help.  However, this will require a payment to the Don (not Donald) so that protection can continue.  You understand that this is just business.  Taxes will go up and programs will be created and jobs will be handed out like candy.

Be prepared

Stay away from crowds.

Put more, if you can, into your pantry.

Keep an eye on what is really going on, not what the media approves for you to hear and see.

Get your skill sets honed.  Create a niche for your skills.

2021

Well, it is here

2021 has arrived and Christmas is safely put away and New Years had no real day and Elections have gone a stray and riots are underway.

Can't we all just get along?  I don't think so.  Too much division in the country and no one wants to simple drop the heavy weapons and just go home.  I thought it awfully convenient that so many people could just show up and start a "peaceful" riot within the day.  As if they were being paid.  As if this was their job.  So much for 2020.

So now the right side has decided to do what the left side had been doing and take over stuff, riot, shoot, burn.  Dumb shits!  No one is going to believe you now.  The rest of us, the quiet ones are going to or already have prepared to defend ourselves.  It is needed.  No offense, just defense.

The other shoe dropped

The democrats have the house, the senate, and the presidency.  You may believe that the election was stolen by cheating with the ballot.  There is plenty to be said about this and it cuts across both parties.  If the election is a sham then the next election will bear that out and the next one after that will overturn the government again.

However, look who controls the government now.  Look who controls media.  Look who controls big tech.  Look who has their hands in vaccines and medicine.  Has 1984 come home to roost?

Make all preparations to get underway

This is the point to quietly get your affairs in order and stock up what you can.  Last year may have wiped you out.  Work to fix that.  My family and I were wiped out several times by layoffs and government shutdowns.  We worked hard to get back.

The time has past for ammo and reloading parts.  Maybe in a few weeks the industry will catch up to the demand.  A lot of people stood in lines to get their piece of the pie so they could defend themselves.  I hope they remembered the bullets.

Stay away from crowds.  Do not draw attention to yourself or your family.  Just blend in or stay locked down and quiet.  Most times this is the safe bet.  Fix up your residence against intruders and have a way to catch them on video.

If you live in a city or town that has decided to defund the police, be prepared.  Assistance will take longer.  EMT and ambulance help may take longer with the Covid issues.  Stay safe and learn to handle problems yourself.  Learn some first aid if you don't already know and by now you should be able to cook.

If you don't know how to fix stuff, learn how.  There are plenty of videos on just about everything you can imagine.  Buy some basic tools.  Try Half Priced Books for low cost DIY style books.  The same can be had online.

You know, for about 12 to 14 years many of the conspiracy theorists have been letting everyone know that the shit will hit the fan and we had better be prepared.  Early last year, the SHTF in a really big way and altered our society forever.  Simply amazing how much disruption to our way of life in a very short time was heaped upon us.  Something like shock and awe.  People were and still are dumbfounded by last year.

What will come

This year will be different than last year.  This year, the communists (progressives) will take center stage and demand that this country and its people change.  This year the forces of good and evil will clash.  We will see what becomes of this.

Keep your powder dry.
