Okay 2023 What Will it Be?
Thomas Paine, these are the times that try men's souls.
I told Judy tonight I was going to write a book. I said the title should be, “The world went Bat Shit Crazy, and God gave me a front row seat.” Judy reminded me we were Christians, and if I write a book, some of our Christians and friends might not want to read it with that title. Maybe y’all can help me as I will outline on my substack. I will keep up with current events and keep you posted. But I think the dam is about to burst, and the things I was writing about two or three years ago will become more apparent, and in the media, more will know. It will be fun to watch the media try to squirm out of the lies and the result of the lies. It might make for a good book; who knows? I already have a publisher. Wait until I tell you the name.
Soon I will end my 10-year career in the fuel and oil sales business—a challenging and competitive industry. Commission on a transport load of fuel might net you $29; if you have to bid it, you can lose the bid by 1/2 cent or less. I wasn’t that good at it, but I found something helpful as typical the last couple of months. I hate buying something and dealing with a commission salesperson like a car salesman. I will probably tell the story of when I assaulted one with an ink pen. I only sat through one timeshare presentation and didn’t end up with a timeshare. There is a story in there, also. But that type of sales doesn’t work in the fuel and oil business. More about that later, or maybe in the book or another book.
From the start of the pandemic, we worked daily, of course. Unlike the politicians in Washington, D.C., we were considered essential workers. When the restaurants started to open, I got this bright idea: I would support our local restaurants and give a little extra tip to the staff. Little did I know that with the stress and everything going around, I was about to enter the Doc Holliday phase in my diet and health when he said, “I have not yet begun to defile myself.” Judy worked in a hospital pharmacy then, so she got the two shots with the Mederna mRNA bioweapon before we could learn much about it. I can tell how we dealt with that. It is nothing like you think. I will also share more of that later or maybe in the book.
Some of you know how I got booted from our area's most significant medical treatment facility, not literally; I got a letter never to return. So, I set out to find a doctor that got COVID right. There were only two in our area. I was happy about my first visit to see a sign “We didn’t give COVID vaccines and confirmed he had treated all his patients successfully without needing hospitalization and no death. I was not surprised to hear that week he had received a letter from the Texas Board of Medical Advisors (not sure what that exact name is) threatening his license if he continued to save all his patient’s lives and keep them out of the hospital with what the media call horse medicine.
So Monday morning, I weighed 233 pounds naked after I shaved my head and cut my toenails. I had been out of blood pressure pills for three weeks because I hadn’t seen my new doctor but once, which was two years ago. His assistant set me up with a specialist to remove cancer from my arm last year. So, he checked me out and asked if I could give him some urine, to which I answered I didn’t know. I pride myself on being honest. When the nurse came in to get my blood, she said, “I see we got some urine,” I said, luckily, at the right time in the right place. The doctor stuck his head in and said he would get with me when the results came back from the blood work; I said I need to warn you, “Since the pandemic, I have been using my body for garbage disposal and distillery.” He thought that was much more fun than the nurse thought of my pee comment. If they only knew I wasn’t joking! So, since my body is the Temple of God, I am seeking Him for maintenance instructions, and I will let you know from time to time how that is going and where I think God is leading.
“These are the times that try men’s souls. The summer soldier and the sunshine patriot will, in this crisis, shrink from the service of their country; but he that stands it now deserves the love and thanks of man and woman.”Thomas Paine
“What we obtain too cheap, we esteem too lightly; dearness only gives everything its value. Heaven knows how to put a proper price upon its goods, and it would be strange if so celestial an article as FREEDOM should be highly regarded.” Thomas Paine
“The last and best Paine Quote and applicable now: “Tyranny, like hell, is not easily conquered: yet we have this consolation with us, that the more complex the conflict, the more glorious the triumph.”
Those of us awake must be able to multi-task to enjoy life while keeping an eye on saving the Republic. I am praying for God’s guidance and will pray for all of you, and if you have any blank prayer time, mention Judy if you don’t mind and me if you want. I will share the floods of truth in ways that make it more sharable with God’s help.
