Land of Whispering Pines 🌲

Good morning! May the Great Spirit bless you🙏

I took my little nausea pill at 5:00 a.m. this morning, with the hope I could stave off the sick stomach ordeal. I thought that if I slept on it for a couple of hours, I would wake up feeling better and avoid wasting the entire morning on stomach garbage. It worked, but it still took an hour and a half before the stomach garbage faded away enough for me to think straight. It feels like the devil is possessing me, and he enjoys the Hell out of torturing me by poking me intermittently in the butthole with his fork to remind me, "So, SUFFER IN HELL!", ya little piece of sh-t.

🔱 ♨️ 🔥 💩  "Suferin Succotash!" 😸

The Ballad Of The Little Red Devil 👹

♪♫♭ "Oh me, Oh my," there's a toad in the hole in the middle of the road, Mrs. McToad was croakin', "Help, help! I'm stuck in a hole, and can't get out," she shouts!

As the Little Red Devil sang and danced joyfully,

"Poke, poke, poke 🔱 poor Mrs. McToad 🤶 in the butthole (‿ˠ‿)

With me, trusty fork! Says the little red devil." 👹

So here I hang my head and cry... ♪♫♭

At least I have enough energy this morning to sit up 🙆 in this chair 🪑 without feeling like I'm made of jelly and going to ooze 🫟 out of it onto the floor.

It feels like my stomach is the city garbage dump, 🔫 🐛 🧪 🫟 🚬 💩 🤮 🧱 🔩 ⚙️ 🧳 🛒 🛍️ 📦 🚯 🚜 and I have rubber legs and could sleep standing up. That's enough about my physical condition; it sucks, and I just pray 🙏 🙏 🙏 I will have enough strength left to get my teeth pulled on Friday. It's always two things or more that attack me.*_

First: in 2021, I got Covid, and GERD was acting up, then followed by a terrible flu on the tail end of the recovery from Covid. Then I got Covid again a second time in the same year, followed by another flu, thank Great Spirit, milder the first time. The last time, last year, was my GERD and appendix, both at the same time. This time, it's the flu, or GERD, not certain which is which anymore.

Second:

Now the Gerds possibly still have some flu along with the bad teeth problem, which should be enough to bring down an elephant, maybe a whole herd of them. None of it is contagious; it's all screwed up innards. Like somebody held a few boxing matches in there, and I got more collateral damage than the boxers. I don't really know the status of what my recovery will be, IF THERE IS EVER AN END TO THIS 💩 💩 💩 I pray it ends with the teeth, or I honestly don't want to see another day of 👹 🔥 Hell like this. Thank you for reading, and for allowing me to VENT! I needed it, and I feel better. At least now I feel like I had a chance to, in my imagination, grab that Little Red Butthole Devil by the legs and beat him against a concrete wall a couple of dozen times!

TODAY'S DISCUSSION:

REDEMPTION

- Google Search -

Redemption is a multifaceted concept referring to the act of being saved or rescued from sin, error, or evil, and can also mean repurchasing something or paying off a debt. It is a significant theme in religion, finance, and literature, describing spiritual deliverance, financial transactions such as redeeming shares or bonds for cash, and a personal journey of making amends for past mistakes.*

I have studied much of the Bible's historical material, but I was never into the religious side of it. They were just ordinary people like us who had experienced and recorded unusual events, while adhering to ethical and humanitarian rules and regulations, essential for the survival of the species—the Laws of G-d and Nature.

The biblical writers didn't need to know every detail to provide a more accurate description. All was recorded in the scrolls of the ancients in such a way that the layman could not comprehend the written messages sufficiently to decipher the code—the code of the infinities within the written words themselves. But like any ordinary human beings back then, and now, we are not perfect beings, and many ancient texts were mistranslated and thus remain controversial.

TO REDEEM ONESELF

"To 'redeem oneself" means to succeed or do something good after a failure or a bad action, thereby improving how you are perceived by others or by yourself. This can involve taking action to fix a mistake, changing your behavior to be more honest and transparent, and making amends to those you may have harmed. It is a process of taking responsibility, learning from the experience, and changing to be a better person.

I love this one, and I do, Do What's Best! To the best of my ability.

As for past restitutions, what past restitutions? I'm probably one of the last of the Mohicans from the era of the baby boomers. Now for what's left of it, all I gots ta do is watch myself that I don't step on anyone's bone spurs.

Washington

—

Something in the US economy isn’t adding up, and it’s rattling the people charged with wrangling inflation and keeping the labor market intact.

US companies have sharply slowed their hiring this year, hesitant to invest without knowing the full effects of President Donald Trump’s sweeping economic policies. The economy lost jobs in June and August, and the average pace of job gains for the three months ending in September was only around 62,000, according to the Labor Department. Yet workers’ productivity, a key driver of economic output, remains high. And gross domestic product, which captures all the goods and services produced in the economy, has stayed robust.

That dichotomy of an expanding economy and a softening labor market presents a conundrum for policymakers at the Federal Reserve, complicating their efforts to determine whether the economy needs cooling or boosting...

Prime Minister Mark Carney and Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi have agreed to launch negotiations toward a new trade deal called a Comprehensive Economic Partnership Agreement, according to a senior government official. It’s the latest sign that diplomatic relations between Canada and India are thawing after a deep freeze over Canadian allegations that Indian agents were linked to an extrajudicial killing of Sikh activist Hardeep Singh Nijjar on Canadian soil in 2023.

Alberta food banks grapple with the high cost of free beef

Ranchers donate meat to help feed the hungry, but food banks cover the cost of butchering

There’s no shortage of beef in southern Alberta, but food banks around Lethbridge are looking for help covering the costs of turning donated cattle into meat they can dish out to clients.

Counties across the province this week endorsed a call for the Alberta government to restart a short-lived pilot program from 2014 that covered the associated costs of butchering, inspecting and packaging thousands of packs of hamburger given to food bank clients. During the provincial pilot, meant to develop a business case for the model, Lethbridge-area ranchers delivered 130 animals, resulting in nearly 17,700 kilograms of ground beef for four food banks in southwest Alberta.

• Ranchers willing, but want broader support:
• Province says no funding for request:
