Appreciate each nuance of life-gift holy-sacred Love!

Amen!

Left!---Right!..."Any" difference!? Hmm!

 "Immunity"!?

"No"body is above the law! NOBODY! Not ever! NO elites!

When any judge can't (or won't) be impartial, no matter the 

issue, no matter "public" opinion, no matter "party" affiliation, 

when they do not uphold "LAW" and disrespect our Constitution,

 they must take off that robe and suffer any consequences. PERIOD!

No one---is...above the "Law"! NO One! Ever! Because---

just as soon as "1" is immune...All reap evil "anarchy"!

Now, if you are absolutely sure you want to play anarchy---

I'm all-in...I'll load up and meet you anywhere, any time.

Are you sure!? Really!?

Amen!

Political theater!?---Just...too easy!

 Political Campaigns!?

2) Vote for me! Independent-Individual Liberty! & Freedom!

"There's a sucker born every minute!" (P. T. Barnum)

Choose---very...Carefully! Amen!

I'm gonna be okay no matter what the collective chooses!

Amen!

Adventuresome eater? Not me!

 "Modern"(?) Pallette!? Hmm!?

We watch 'some" PBS T.V. like Cook's Country/  "Yum!" (Usually?)

We even tried a "few" of their more "traditional" recipes.

Wow!---Even dove into some "vegan" tries?...Umm!?

But---Come-'on!...Almost raw-blood meat and "Hell"-hot spicy!?

I don't think so!---Know what I like!...Eadt what I know! Easy!

Medium-well! Salt & pepper! Condiments! Perfectly delicious!

Bon Appetite!

Amen!

Gypsy serenade (Part 2 of 2)

 1     “End”-of-day”!---Begin…night-respite!

 

“Circle tight, the wagons, Uncle Will!” Bram called his nightly ’oft repeated but, wholly unnecessary, direction to the driver of the wagon immediately behind his own.

Will let go a long, thin stream of brown tobacco juice which found purchase in a one-inch layer of thick prairie dust trying, unsuccessfully, to nourish a nettle weed to flourish.

He laughed, heartily, observing his wasted attempt to “help” nature in a futile gesture.

“’Bout as much chance of survival for that ole weed as there is that Bram might just forget to warn me about the tightness of our wagon circle some evening---None!” He thought the words.

But, aloud, for Bram’s hearing benefit, he said, politely, “Yes! Sir! Master Bram! Sure thing.”

Bram swung his matched pair of white geldings twenty-feet shy of the bank of a swift flowing, though shallow, crystal-water cascading river flow and pulled up; no point in tempting nature by getting too close and suffering a tragic “flash” flood during the night.

Uncle Will guided his team of horses close behind the leaders rig leaving just enough room to unhitch the beasts, Billy and ole Tom. They weren’t as young and flashy, maybe, as once they had been, but what they now lacked in conformation-appearance they more than made-up for in exactness and excellence in performance. Will was quite proud of the pair and spoiled them.

If and when the tribe happened on a farmer’s garden of big, juicy carrots, when the farmer wasn’t paying close attention, Will would liberate a dozen, or two, of the orange treats for the horses; the pair always got the thickest canopy of leaves above their heads if rain threatened.

One of his favorite sayings was, “For women, kids and horses, it’s the little things that matter.” Will was a Good man, a kind soul and an exemplar spirit; everybody loved him.”

Finally, after twenty minutes, or so, the teamsters had formed a protective circle of wagons.

Cousin Jonathan, eldest of the group of some twenty children, quickly gathered rounded river rocks from the stream and set them in a five-foot radius circle perfect enough to make an army private jealous of the preciseness of the completion; inside the enclosure he laid dried grass from along the riverbank and covered the tinder with smallish twigs and then bigger branches which the children gathered from under the trees.

Once satisfied with his creation, he fired the nest utilizing a flint struck against a steel delivering sparks to the dried mound. As the flames grew, he added larger logs around the perimeter of the fire and then topped the conflagration with dry wood. Right away, cousins, brother and sister, Avery and Suzanna, delivered a blackened kettle stand and its equally fire- discolored cook vessel to the site. In a few minutes the pot was being filled with river water.

The women unwrapped food parcels in a community effort to procure the evening food fare; each pitched in, offering their special talents toward a bountiful table-spread and good eats.

The horses were tethered to a heavy rope picket line after the boys and girls of the party had led each to the stream for a good drink. The children curried the animals, settling the critters “in” for their night respite. These horses were very valuable to the collective and got good care.

“Looks to be a pretty fair night.” Bram opined, sipping hot coffee from a tin cup while leaning back against a fallen log and peering toward the heavens as murmurs of agreement whispered.

As the tribe finished their evening meal, Bram offered a Prayer-of-Thanks for their bounty and safe travel; the throng added a heartfelt “Amen” to his benediction. Then, he laid out the plans for tomorrow; with continued luck and the Lord’s blessing, they’d make another 20 miles.

The musicians soon broke out their worn instruments and as a reddish-golden sun bid Adieu to its passing day, the group softly hummed spiritual hymns in peaceful harmony occasionally breaking out in a joyful Gypsy-spirit “Whisper”-wind serenade. Amen!

But---“What”?...Can I do!? Hmm!

 

I’ve told the story before, I’m in a 7-11 one very hot

August afternoon to buy a lottery ticket and get

behind a 10 year-old boy with a 44 oz. Icee-drink,

the clerk says, “$1.29”. The boy drops coins on the

glass top counter, some stick to his sweaty palm,

the clerk counts and says, “You’re 52¢ shy…” I

motion to the clerk that “I’ve got this” and he lets

the boy leave. That 52¢ is worth a million-dollars!

 

“What”? can I do?---Really!?...Just, pay Attention! & Act!

Very often is heard the horrid stories of man’s inhumanity to man.

Sometimes, so much so, that a-purpose we make “heroes” of demons.

Might we ever get enough of “bad”?---Hmm!?...Eternal-embrace Good!?

 

A vocal minute-minority sets the tone for society and culture!? Wow!

 

No matter how oft spoken or how many attest to any faux-Truth

of all falsehood (lie) the conclusion is still just an evil-lie! Amen!

 

And---we (in the collective)…are left to our own determinations! Hmm!

 

So?---If this conclusion is correct…Where be Redemption?-Salvation!?

 

Saints! & Angels! exemplify Perfection-through-Love resulting-Peace!

 

Is it enough to believe?---Yes!...Love is always born of Faith!

It---is…a satiated-spirit! An Attitude! An Appreciation! Peace!
 
My dad made this very point when, not so long ago when I was
plenty “young & dumb” (sometimes-seems like only yesterday!).
He allowed, trying to teach his son a value-virtue lesson,
“I felt sorry that I had no shoes until I saw a man with no feet!”
 
Might “We” pause, now and then, just to be Appreciative-Thankful!?
 
“Happy” Golden-sunshine! Rainbows! Unicorns! Full-moon! Love!

Thank you! The lawn looks Fantastic!

Happy Birthday! "King" Rupert! Yea! celebrate!

 Happy 85^th Birthday! “King” Rupert!

(a Loving limerick honoring the “rightful-True” King! Yea! August 15, 2024)

 

Rupert the True “King-of-Royalty”!

 

I once knew a “Prince” born Royal in the Fatherland

Clandestine-switched at birth by an evil-demon band

No value denying that he really is “Rupert-the-King”

With Lovely-Lady Queen Herta a love-song they sing

A 1^st Class-act who lives better than what had been planned

 

Amen!

 
Once upon a time in ole Germany, our Fatherland, a Royal Prince was born who was then “cheated” out of his birthright by a surreptitious evil-demon band of n’er-do’wells who abducted the newborn-infant and switched him with a “choosing” of their own to be the “Royal”-child.
But---the “rightful” King refused to be denied…a Gentleman-of-Peace, he did not complain.
Forever after, though, “King” Rupert proclaimed his rightful Royalty letting any and all with whom he came into contact know that he was of Royal-blood and had been “switched-at-birth”!
As a young man, “King” Rupert displayed his “knack” at proclaiming Royal-decrees.
“King” Rupert and his cousin were playing tennis when they spotted two comely fraulines on the court in their cute little outfits. Well! “King” Rupert recognized an “opportunity” when one came knocking and immediately issue his first “Royal” fiat.
“I’ll take the ‘pretty’ one!” “King” Rupert declared to his subordinate kin.
However, since the maidens were sisters, each was Gorgeous-Beautiful! Cousin, agreed.
So began the saga of Royal “King” Rupert and his Lovely-Lady Queen Herta! Amen!
But, that is just the beginning of this most Fabulous and exciting adventure-tale.
The “Royal” couple produced two sons, Michael and Alexander, two handsome siblings.
The latter married a Beautiful American-gal and the couple presented the families with two Gorgeous young ladies, Lauren Victoria and Anna Marie. Each share their parents’ high intelligence and exemplify the dignity obvious to those of “exceptional” Royal-blood breeding.
All the progeny of “King” Rupert and Lovely-Lady Herta honor their Royal heritage with both natural-Grace and acclaimed-successes. One even reached “General” Benjamin army status!
 

Congratulations! To all! On an exemplar job-well-done!

 

And---they lived happily…ever after! Amen!

 

*****

 

Happy 85^th Birthday! “King” Rupert! We wish you many, many more “King” celebrations!

 

Amen!
