Not my circus, but I pay to feed the monkeys

 

Wolves

Show my shocked face! The wolf debacle has doubled in cost.

Should you care to read 23 pages, here is the State’s official report.

MORE

Ranchers are going their own way seeking solutions. The State keeps gas lighting them.

MORE

I doubt any of the environazi wolf fans had the courage to attend this meeting. Just state employees who had no choice.

Blue State Politics

Cronyism is so common in Colorado Politics the public now shrugs.

Consider the case of profiting off non-profits.

MORE

Perhaps some of these non-profits actually do some good. Certainly, some employees do very well for themselves. All are reliable Democrat voters.

Southern Preposterous Lie Center echo chamber

Just what is a hate group? Just about any conservative group according to these self important buffoons.

MORE

Montgomery, AL is their home. A few years ago, as a pre-production test driver, I spent some time there. Hyundia builds cars there and Kia at West Point, GA not far away. Whenever I mentioned this organization to locals, the usual response was an eyeroll.

Trust Fund Snot’s Drama

Nothing serious; just makes me smile an evil smile.

MORE

 Update: After five days on the run, the bull has been captured.

True Believer

My neighbor across the hall is Democrat. I avoid any political discussion. He is fanatical in his beliefs. Trump is the devil, and our country is in deep trouble. Nothing original, just well learned talking points.

Another resident in the building is a Messianic Rabbi. He and his wife are extremely conservative in their political beliefs.

 The big difference is the Rabbi can disagree without being disagreeable.

Trump Haters Never Stop

Video going around blaming him for the Texas flood loss of life. The area meteorology office had one person responsible for alerting local authorities. Said person took early retirement and wasn’t replaced. Hah, we got you, Bad Man Orange! Never mind all the deaths. Scum!

 That excuses the local NOAA managers who didn’t reshuffle the deck and assign someone to that function. “Oh, the position was open”. Bullshit bureaucracy at it’s worse.

 USPS

They are losing billions each year. A small example of why.

Using their own tracking system.

   6/28 placed an order with a company in Ft Lupton – 38 miles away

   7/2 Arrived in Greeley – not delivered

   7/3 Sent to the Denver Distribution Center – 167 miles

   7/4 Sent to Aspen – 167 miles

   7/7 Sent to Grand Junction -129 miles

   7/8 Sent to Greeley – 304 miles

   7/8 Out for delivery

Just another day in Wyoming

Drug runners being stupid. Oh, illegal aliens – surprise!

How many were on the road that day that weren’t caught?

  Firearm Confiscation

A daily read for me is William Kirk’s Washington Gun Law. I find he presents complex issue with a level of clarity this lay person can understand.

 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=usX61R1fh2c

 He often points out, while Trump 2.0 is pro 2nd Amendment, the future may bring some version of Lightbringer 4.0. What works for us today, can work against us in the future, aka, be careful what you wish for.

As always, YMMV

Nice roundup, and maybe you need to seriously look at Coloexit... Just sayin...

Coloexit has been on my mind for years. Ties that bind, etc.

I'm not trying to play "can you top this" here. No, really. I don't have to. The post office did that for me quite nicely.

About a year ago, I shipped a machinery manual from a small-town PO in south-central Kansas to a customer in Lake Charles, Louisiana via Priority Mail. It was not a simple manual. It included drawings and individual manuals and photographs for all the machines they'd bought from me over about 25 years because I was on the cusp of being let loose and there would be no institutional memory available when they needed parts or other assistance. Hours and hours were invested in this thing, so there was some angst on my part when it went walkabout and took the following path:

Small-town PO to Wichita then to Kansas City and on to Baton Rouge.
Reverse course to Kansas City, Wichita and back to small-town PO.
Small-town PO to Wichita back to small-town PO back to Wichita.
Wichita back to Kansas City back to Baton Rouge to Lafayette back to Baton Rouge back to Kansas City back to Wichita back to small-town PO back to Wichita en route back to Baton Rouge and that's when I called the small-town PO and said, uh, need a little help here.....

Postmaster at small-town PO got involved and got it straightened out and after three weeks, the manual finally delivered at the customer's office.

The customer promptly lost it........and you should know by now that I don't have the intellect to make up a story like this all by myself.

Murphy is the Postmaster General and his cousin works at your customer.

Happy birthday WSF!

Thank you.

Wolves, natural predator of the coyotes, amongst other things. Perhaps a pack, protected of course, could be imported from BC to Denver? Just a thought. Hey, Austin too.

Well Seasoned Fool said...

No need. Based on the GPS tracking they will soon move from the mountains to the Plains - their historical range. Easier prey. As I've said in many of my postings, Canadian wolves were never native to Colorado. Arizona/Mexican sized wolves were. Perhaps LL can trap and transport a few. Release them in the Rocky Mountain Arsenal Nation Wildlife Refuge. Won't take them long to enter Denver.

Picture this if you will! A room full of very religious Jews, who read the Torah every morning, and that had, survived history’s worst in Germany and still think, “You know what? I think that Zohran Mamdani has got our backs.. Maybe we should give him a chance?

Now, let’s picture a room filled with Glitter- and Rainbowed shirts, and flags men and other men of a club known as “ Queers for Palestine, “chanting for freedom in Gaza while waving rainbow flags, and Palestinian Flags in solidarity with a cause that’d rather see them stoned than celebrated. It’s like a vegan BBQ at a butcher shop, noble, but woefully misplaced. Palestine’s leadership, not exactly known for Pride parades, might look at these enthusiastic supporters and think, “Bless their hearts, but we’ll pass on the drag show.” Yet, the march continues, with signs proclaiming “Love is Resistance!” as if love could dodge a rocket or rewrite a theocracy’s rulebook. Existential threat? Pfft, that’s just spicy geopolitics, darling!
In the race for “Most Likely to Ignore the Obvious,” both groups are neck-and-neck. Jews for Zohran Mamdani think they can debate their way out of a lion’s den with a PowerPoint on coexistence. he “Queers for Palestine” believe their Glitter , and Rainbowed Bombs charm regimes that outlaw their very existence. It’s a tie for the golden “What Were You Thinking?” trophy, awarded annually at the Gala of Cognitive Dissonance. The dress code? Rose-colored glasses and a blindfold.

Bottom Line
Why do they do it? Why do they support regimes that wish them dead? Think about it. Think about the Idiots in the Democratic Party doing Exactly the same thing.
Because hope is a hell of a drug, and “Progressive ideals” sound snappy on a yard sign. Never mind that Zohran Mamdani’s allies might see a Star of David as a dartboard
And that some people, t
like these Moronic Democrats are just plain Stupid! Just like their former Hero Joe Biden!

Takes someone smarter than me to answer that.

New York City's Mayoral contest is down to a three-man race., and those three men are an Anti-Semitic Communist, a Mass Murderer, and a Dirty Cop.
As Andrew Cuomo announces third-party run for NYC mayor after losing the Democratic primary
New York’s only chance is if Curtis Sliwa the Republican, win s if the democrats split the vote..
Other wise we would have Andrew Cuomo, a proven loser, and Mamdani, a Communist, and Adama, a dirty, crooked ex-Cop would all fit the criteria perfectly..
If New York City was at all “Sane” sane, Curtis Sliwa would win in a landslide. But because they are by and large Leftist nuts, they will probably elect the Communist
But chances are that these guys are going to end up splitting the vote and hand the election to the Lying, Filthily Marxist, Islamist Terrorist. .
I only hope that the Jew Haterr, Lying,, Filthy Marxist,, Islamist Terrorist., is shown to be what he really stands for. A Lousy Dirty Stinking Commie. JUST what New York DOESN’T NEED
