Thought of the Day.

[Declan]

I just attended a wake for a much admired man named Kevin Hannon from Galway. There is a wake for a Cork man tomorrow and a person told me that there are 5 deaths in the general area this past few days. So, live life to the full as this man did. I attend a lot of these, as would be expected as I would know more people than most. Time waits for no man.

 

[Declan]

There is certainly something fishy about that concert where 9 people died in Texas.

 

[Declan]

Today there was heavy rain and a modest wind and we were berthed in Plymouth Harbor, but it certainly would be nasty crossing the ocean on The Mayflower.

 

[Declan]

I had a high level man and his mother out today, I suspect he was an intelligence agent. He said that he expects trouble in Belarus and Ukraine. A very interesting fellow, based in Britain?????

Covid-19: 4,570 cases reported, hospital numbers up 40

There have been 4,570 new cases of Covid-19 reported by the Department of Health, The number of people with Covid-19 who are being treated in hospitals has increased by forty from yesterday to 622.

With 622 in hospital. up 40 from the prior day, it should be obvious to everyone that the 92% vaccinated rate means nothing, at best it is useless. But people will never admit to being wrong so the real bad news in January and February will be shocking.

So Kyle is innocent. Contrary to popular opinion, I expect little if any trouble. Trouble is no longer part of the Agenda.

 

[Declan]

As predicted, there was basically zero trouble.


The big trial is starting Monday, that of Maxwell. It will be downplayed to rhe max of course in case people would wake up to reality.

I found this on NewsBreak – the #1 local news app used by 45+ million people: Massachusetts’ governor weighs $20M in Afghan, Haiti aid

Massachusetts’ governor weighs $20M in Afghan, Haiti aid - NewsBreak

BOSTON — Immigrant advocates in Massachusetts are cheering the inclusion of $20 million in aid to Afghan refugees and Haitian migrants in a broader, $4 billion spending plan from state lawmakers. The bill, which was approved last week and is currently awaiting Republican Gov. Charlie Baker’s...

I find this story epitomizes the insanity of today. Where did it even originate that you could steal from the Massachusetts taxpayer to give to someone else in the first place.

I enjoyed this presentation, it provides an insight into reality. This elderly man was one of the top men in the country. When this talk was given, he was eagerly looking forward to the release under the Law from 1992 of the classified documents.

Both Trump and Biden, being just puppets have refused to release them. That is reality.

While driving about today in the light sleet I saw two women begging and looking forlorn. They were believe it or not Roma. Came thousands of miles to parasite off naive Americans.

 

[Declan]

Excellent day relaxing as I begin 2022. I am very pessimistic about the year which means I am very optimistic about it for me because all my investments are positioned for bad news.
Last year was not the best whereas I did very well in 2020.
I have been hearing of people now ordering silver and having to wait 30 business a least for delivery. So in effect, the squeeze already has begun.

 

[Declan]

People ask me where place names like Massachusetts comes from all the time.
So today I will tell of Vermont. It from from the French words for green hills.
Vert(m) is green.

 

[Declan]

I tried out the virtual reality we got for Christmas and I do not recommend it. I got dizzy. Ours is the too expensive imo reverb, not the cheaper oculus.

Anyway. What is an Oculus.
It actual is a term used in architecture and it refers to an opening in the top of a dome which allows light to enter. They had the feature in Rome and Byzantium buildings. The one in The Pantheon is twenty seven feet in diameter.
It is also the word used to describe circular or oval windows in buildings.

 

[Declan]

An awful murder. A sign of the future.

 

[Declan]

Disgraceful that The Late Late Show put om that virtue signal tribute. The discussion should be who killed her and his punishment. Not sitting inside plastic cubicles playing dirge.
Pathetic.

Families of US Embassy personnel in Ukraine ordered to begin evacuating as soon as Monday: officials

The State Department has ordered families of U.S. Embassy personnel in Ukraine to begin evacuating the country as soon as Monday, U.S. officials tell Fox News.

It looks like Putin will not and can not back down so we are to see a pivotal moment.

There is a river that sets the boundary of Galway in the north east called The River Suck. A somewhat unusual name. It is from the Irish word Soc which means a ploughshare, which is the curved part that turns the sod. It also refers to the snout of a pig, which ruts and makes furrows in the ground which meander all over the place. Because the Suck River flows through flat land, it too meanders as rivers do. So it appears like a rut made by a giant pig and hence the name. I wager most Galway people do not know this.

The sock of a plough is the part that goes in front of the mould board. and cuts the sod underneath. I thought it came from the word stocking.

It looks that way. We are due a war anyway. Biden is asleep, voters voted for this and they are going to get it. Harris is a
an airhead. It was said Russia is weak and poor, but they are on home ground. Germany appears to be staying out of it in case Putin cuts off the gas supply..
