Missed a lot here this week, it was eye surgery week for my daughter. All went well, she can now see 20/20 in her right eye. Two more weeks she gets the left eye done.

The weather patterns and climate has always been changing and I believe it will continue to do so. But now, we have the ability to see and hear about various areas immediately whereas in the past, we only had the newspapers, then radio, then limited TV news.
As in so many other situations these days, it's "follow the money" and see who is really getting rich on promoting the battle against climate change.
A battle that really can't be won. Oh and notice the name change, from global warming to climate change.

That's true, we didn't have the internet way back when , now it's instant news at our fingertips. For the past 5 or 6 decades we have had all these doomsday predictions that never came true. Ice age, acid rain, we are all going to die of starvation, the ozone layer was going to be gone, to name a few disasters that never happened. Oh yes, follow the money and then take a look at the lifestyles of those who tell us we must make sacrifices and they don't. Mansions, yachts, private jets, etc... But the sky is falling and we need more of your hard earned money so we can do something about it.

Well yes, I noticed that and the truth is, the climate has and always will change.

Niles it is a fact that the earth axis changes. I learned that about age 11 while roaming relatives land in Hill, Bosque & Johnson county. Some of the white caliche dirt hills covered with cedar are ocean sediment containing oyster shells along with other sea shells 3 or 4 hundred miles from the ocean.

This proves as the earth axis changes polar caps melt & the ocean shore & floor must change.
The Dallas Fort Worth Metroplex may have been under water on the equator a few thousand years ago. LOL
Perhaps when those dinosaurs were making those tracks down at Glen
Rose. LOL

But then as the world over populates it stands to reason that the atmosphere will heat as forests are changed into bare land & thus oxygen is less abundant.

Global warming is comparable to when we have too many horses in a little pen. It messes everything up. LOL

The obvious solution is a decrease in the over population which can happen when new diseases come onto the scene.
Party On!

Yep, caliche is loaded with fossils, my grandson loves looking through it and collecting fossilized shells. Wow, haven't been to the dinosaur state park in years, but yes, I can visualize this area under water and if this rain persists, lol, we may be under water once again. Once upon a time here, where I live, my grass/fields would have already turned brown, but not now, everything is green and growing faster than I can get out and mow it. You're here in TX, you know as well as I do that our temps have been cooling down the past few years, and I'm not complaining, it's kind of nice for a change. As far as forests and trees, what's dying off in one area of the planet, is thriving elsewhere. No worries Tx, we'll be dead soon enough.

Years ago, there was a rumor that California was going to fall into the ocean. My siblings and I were in a pool at time California was expected to fall into the ocean. We were joking about how we were already swimming so if California fell into the ocean, we were good.

I remember them saying that, I think there is still that one scientist who believes it still can happen. I can see his face, but can't remember his name.

My Mom and stepdad moved to Cali years ago because of her allergies, so I have been lucky enough to have been in a few earthquakes while staying with them. I was taking a shower the first earthquake and being on the second floor it felt like I was spinning. All soaped up and trying to catch my balance on the tile wall, all I could think was that I was going to die nekked!

I want one of those all electric trucks Ford is coming out with in a few months
Never buy gas again. LOL
A habit I would like to break.
Range is no problem. I only travel total 80 miles per day to & from the alternate man cave------OR 60 miles total to & from the rejuvenated dance
{stomping) place.------plug it in to charge when I get home.& it's all good.
I could even plug in saws & other hand tools to it out in the pasture where I now must take a generator out there.
Party On!

You mean it's not? Shhhhh. Don't tell my kids who live there.
I've been telling them that for 16 years, ever since they moved from the midwest to CA to pastor a church there. LOL.... They just laugh at me, but I tell them, "Just you wait and see. Mothers know these things!"

There were many tremors around Alvarado Texas where so many wells had been fracked. There was a sink hole in front of a building there about 8 ft. diameter & 2 ft deep at center.

Really? You're really thinking of buying an electric truck? I don't think I'm interested in any electric vehicle at the moment after reading about the electric car graveyard in France. The cars are 7 years old rotting away and the batteries in them are considered toxic waste. No matter how you look at it, the electric vehicles are being plugged into what? The power grid. Still using coal and oil. The article also stated that the batteries drain when not in use, so the vehicles have to be plugged in when idle. When you replace the batteries, where do the old ones go? They are dumped and produce toxic waste which is now permanently in the soil. When something can be made that causes no harm, then I'll switch over.

Yes, I am close enough to have felt them. Sink holes happen everywhere, they aren't something new.

When I was waiting for my youngest to return to her school from a basketball game at another school, all was quiet and my truck started to shake. At first I thought it was my daughter and her friends sneaking up on me and moving the truck up and down. I looked around and I was alone. Then I noticed my cell phone chord was swaying back and forth and realized I felt an earthquake. Checked the news the next day and sure enough, an earthquake hit Alpine, TX and I felt it all the way here. That was in 1995.

Hahaha, that sounds worse than dying nekked in the shower! Picturing that all in my mind, not very pretty.

We should also be aware of "geoengineering" , defined as planetary-scale environmental engineering of our weather, our atmosphere, the oceans, and our Earth itself. Critics call it Weather Warfare. The methods are used without public oversight or consent.......................

You would think most of us would know about geoengineering, but I have known a few people who still deny it's happening. In Texas there is a form that has to be filled out before they can dump those chemicals in our atmosphere. I was shocked to even know there was such a permit here in my state. You can look it up here if curious, or for those who think I'm making this stuff up.

I noticed, too, that too many people have no idea of what is going on. Conspiracy they call what they don't want to know. How can those who could stop such activities, allow a handful of psychopaths to experiment and destroy all LIFE on this earth! "Why are the lambs so silent", is a book by a German professor worth reading.

So true! I was standing next to a co-worker and looked up and saw the chemtrails left by a couple jets. When I told him what they were he said it was just the exhaust. I told him jet exhaust disappears, these chemicals don't. He stood there and told me I was nuts. I laughed and told him he was in denial, then asked if that was the case, why did they turn them on and off when making the giant "X marks the spot" and then turn it back on to fill the sky with more chemicals?
I'll check out the book, Thanks.

The German Title of the book, is "Warum schweigen die Laemmer?" I have not found an English edition...... There are many videos of his speeches, I'll look there also.....
We, the people, are targeted by many forces with devastating effect. Where to begin?

Well that's not good, German wasn't one of the languages I learned. Are there English subtitles on the videos?

More and more people are waking up to the hold our governments have over us and what they are trying to do, and have done, but still not enough. So many trying to get the message out to make people more aware... brave souls that take the risk of being snuffed out, and some have been. Oh, but we are just conspiracy nuts to those who don't pay attention.
