I guess heavy equipment operator qualifies as a trade.I thought that’s what I wanted to for a living.Went in Navy,asked for E.O Mos and got it.
Went to A school and some B schools to learn how to operate all kinds of equipment.
I enjoyed the schools and doing some different things in the Navy.
Got out and went to work running an earthmover.2 weeks of that,I said frick this,I’ve got the G.I.bill I’m going to college.Quit and went and registered for nursing school.Did that for 35 years.

Running equipment,for a company was different,Navy wasn’t trying to make a profit.
Running that machine was boring as hell,going in a big circle.Pick up a load of dirt here,drop it over there.Over and over,work 12 hours a day7 days a week when weather allowed.

Nursing was a tough job but it was rarely boring.Weather was always nice,A C in the summer,heat in the winter.Lot’s of eye candy in a hospital.

I’d much prefer Fleming.I talked to him at a Carbon Capture meeting.He has a very good grasp on many of the issues.Seems to be pretty high energy,75 years old and he’s been to about all the C.C meetings.

Letlow might vote right but she doesn’t seem to do much.
“As long as my pecker works,I’m good”

So you can jerk off to your Anthony Fauci bobblehead daily?
Is it upon awakening or before you go to bed?Or both?
She’d 100% win if he/she would run as a Democrap.
She checks the boxes-ugly lesbian.
I left my gun in my stand once.I had to take a dump really bad,walked a little ways downwind,
As I was finishing up saw a big deer with his head down,he raised it up and was a 10 point,one of best bucks I’ve ever seen in the woods.Was only about 75 yards away.Happened years ago,I’ve been sick about it ever since.

Similar thing happened to an old man that lived nearby except he had his gun.Nice buck walked in front of him as he was taking a dump.
Recoil knocked him backwards onto his pile of crap.
He got the deer though.

Warren Buffett is the same way.Guzzles Cokes all day,every day.Eats MacDonalds and Dairy Queen most every day.Is 95 years old.
“Looks like he recently settled $21 MM in Medicare fraud”

He didn’t settle anything,he wasn’t charged with Medicare fraud.
Hospital he worked for (Cornerstone Hospital Medical Center) paid $21,637,512 to settle claims of Medicare fraud.
If he had been charged he would have gone to prison.

He worked as medical director at Houston’s United Memorial Medical Center during the COVID pandemic.He was honored for his life saving work,worked 715 days straight without a day off.

You should get your facts straight.
“Because it’s for animals not humans.”

I guess you don’t know it’s given to humans for scabies and head lice.
Ivermectin lotion is used for rosacea.
“I am just curious if it has worked on anyone”

It worked for me,stepson,dtr-in-law,grandson and a granddaughter.
In every case all our symptoms were gone in 24 hrs.In my case I was very fatigued for 3 days but fever,cough and aches were gone.The others didn’t have the lingering fatigue,guess I did because of my age.
I didn’t use the horse paste,I used the liquid injectable from Tractor Supply,taken orally.

Google Dr. Mary Talley Bowden and her success with ivermectin.
Also Dr.Joseph Varon.He was the medical director of an ICU in Houston.??He had the best survival rate of any ICU in the U.S.,75% vs avg of 50 % for other ICU’s around the country.He gave his pts. ivermectin among other things.
My oldest stepson.What’s exceedingly funny is that his daughter is the same way.
I laugh and tell him Karma is a bitch.Then he’ll try to tell me he didn’t argue about anything and everything.Like hell,you’re still doing it.Trying to argue that he didn’t argue.
Can’t make this shite up.

re: Supplements

lsu777 is the resident expert on supplements,maybe he’ll chime in.
He knows his stuff.

They’re getting paid to protest by various anti American entities.
Least likely to succeed.
With the news coming out about CWD being found in more and more places I suspect that hunter participation rates are going to drop even further.
Personally I’m not particularly worried about it,I suspect there has been a certain amount of it in deer all along but because it was never tested for no one knew about it.There is no evidence it is transmissible to humans,if it was there would be an epidemic of CJD(human form).It’s pretty rare,1-2 cases per million people.
I don’t intend to quit deer hunting or eating deer but I know some people that will likely be freaked out about it and will quit.If they aren’t their wives will be.
Trying to get my grandsons interested with moderate success but if my dtr-in-law finds out about it that’ll probably be the end of that.

re: fire ant jihad

“I’ve been battling a fire ant colony in one of my raised vegetable garden beds.”

I use spinosad in my raised garden beds.It’s safe for organic gardening.
I buy it from Amazon,Monterey is the brand if I remember correctly.
2 oz./gal.water,drench the mound with it.Works good.

That’s a drawback to raised beds,fire ants love them.Bastards get in my compost bins also.

In the yard and wife’s flower beds I use Acephate.
We had a nurse from Honduras long time ago.Pretty hot.She was a hard worker and was always in a good mood,never complained no matter how busy it was.
I used to be a believer in the flu shots and advocated for people to take them.I took them probably 25 years in a row,I never got the flu but I did see several of my family members take them and get the flu anyway.

I haven’t taken one since the Covid debacle (didn’t take the Covid shot)and I don’t intend to take them again.My primary care Dr.is fine with my stance,he is adament that I take Vit.D,and keep my level about 50.
“The Covid mRNA shots saved a lot of lives.They were shitty at preventing transmission”

They were also shitty at preventing infections.Everybody I know that took the shot and boosters got Covid,quite a few of them 2-3 times.(I didn’t take it,had Covid once).
Cleveland Clinic published the numbers of their employees(approx.50,000) that got the shots and the incidence of infections,the more shots they took,the higher the incidence of Covid infections.Look it up.

(JAMA Study)

You do realize pharma pays for these studies in most cases,medical journals by and large are nothing more than shills for the Pharmaceutical industry.Journals don’t dare publish a study that doesn’t advance the narratives of Pharma for fear of losing advertising dollars.Journals also make a large amount of money selling reprints of published articles used in marketing.
There was a time medical journals had integrity and had rigorous standards
concerning studies they published,that time has long passed.
Marcia Angelle,MD former editor of NEJM quote from 2009:” it is no longer possible to believe much of the clinical research that is published”.
She also wrote a book-The Truth About the Drug Companies.She details how these companies deceive the public and influence research.I would argue plenty of Drs.are deceived based on what I saw my 35 years working in hospitals..

So if you believe the JAMA study,that the COVID shot saved a lot of lives,you’re welcome to believe it.
I sure as hell don’t.
I have a Cabela’s,think it’s 3/4 hp,it’s the # 8 size.Have had it for years.
Grinds meat as fast as I can feed it.I advise buying the foot pedal if it doesn’t come with one.

re: Ever pick up a hitchhiker?

Posted by LSUA 75 on 12/28/25 at 2:21 pm to
When I was 14(1964) I was in hospital to have my tonsils out.I was in a 4 pt
room with 3 other males.
One of them was a man with a big bulky bandage on his neck across his throat.
Curious me asked him what the big dressing was for.
He told me he picked up a hitchhiker who tried to cut his throat and stole his car.
Every time I was tempted to pick up a hitchhiker I thought about that.
I get The Epoch Times,I like it.
