The Classical Saturday Morning Coffee Thread & Prayer Revival (6/15/24)
Happy Saturday 'rons, 'ettes & everything in between. No need to thank me for the physical fitness exercise provided above. Before we get into Prayer Revival, just a few housekeeping matters. (Rulz for those of you in Baldwin.) 1) This is an open thread feel free to lurk, opine and/or bloviate.
2) Be nice to one another. Even Cloggensteins need love & support.
3) No running with sharp objects unless you or your parent's health insurance is paid up.
4) Feel free to have whatever weekend you decide or is decided for you.
Thank you Annie for your service.
AoSHQ Weekly Prayer List Please submit any prayer requests to me, “Annie’s Stew” at apaslo atsign hotmail dot com. Prayer requests are generally removed after four weeks unless we receive an update. Prayer Requests: 5/17 – Grumpy and Recalcitrant asked for prayers for J.J. Sefton of the Morning Report. Please pray that his upcoming surgery and recovery would go very well and that he retains full mental and physical function, and can enjoy the rest of his life without worries.
6/3 Update – J.J. sends his thanks for the prayers, kindness, and support. The pathology report showed the tumor was grade 4 glioblastoma. Essentially, that means he has brain cancer. The next steps are chemo and radiation in hope of staving off a recurrence, and prolonging whatever time he has left, and maintaining the best possible quality of life. 5/18 – P asked for prayers for his brother, who just revealed that he is suffering from stage 4 lung cancer that has spread to his lymph nodes. The outlook is not good. P prays that he remembers God is with him, notwithstanding his diagnosis. 5/18 – Dash my lace wings! asked for prayers for D, who is in ICU due to a heart attack, and for her husband, R, who is a veteran and a lover of cats and bad jokes, who will be lost if he loses her.
6/1 Update – D is out of the hospital and recovering well for now. 5/18 – Tonypete requested prayers for Carole across the street. She is a delightful 80 year old. Previously she was in great shape, very active. A few weeks ago she took ill and turned out to have previously undiagnosed heart troubles. They hurriedly replaced a valve but it didn’t go well. She continues to leak blood and now needs open heart surgery. She is tiny – no more than 90 pounds - and they fear she will not survive. 5/22 – Vmom stabby stabby stabby stabby asked for prayers. She has been in the hospital since Monday with sudden dizziness and emesis. They’ve ruled out stroke. They have noticed nystagmus and it might be BPPV. She is scared she won’t be able to function anymore.
6/1 Update – Vmom sends thanks for the prayers while she was in the hospital last week. She is so grateful to be home, back at work, and going to vestibular rehab therapy for her inner ear woes. 5/23 – Olddog in mo could use some prayers. He is going in for surgery again at 10 am. Squamous cell carcinoma under the tongue. It is not a good location due to the proximity to a salivary gland.
5/24 Update – Olddog sent his thanks for the prayers. Surgery went better than expected. No skin graft and so no overnight stay. Flash biopsy was negative. 5/25 – Matthew Kant Cipher requested prayers for his older brother, who was admitted to the hospital with a bowel blockage. It doesn’t sound too serious, but one never knows. He also sends prayers of gratitude for each reader, and for all His incredible blessings which surround us. May our eyes and hearts be opened to clearly recognize His love for us.
6/1 Update – His brother’s hospital stay was brief and his bowel blockage resolved itself naturally. The Horde prayers were answered and are most sincerely appreciated! 5/25 – Tonypete asked for prayers for an elderly neighborhood couple. They are in failing health and abilities. They insist on living independently, yet they can’t do it. Tonypete and his wife are torn between respecting their wishes and privacy, but there are numerous LEO wellness checks each week.
6/8 – Tonypete and R have been subpoenaed to give testimony at the competency hearing in a few weeks, called by the elderly couple’s children. The elderly couple is still fighting against going to an assisted living facility. It’s just a very sad situation. 5/25 – Mindful webworker sent a prayer of thanks for the prayers of the Horde. He is alive and 90% well and 100% grateful for that. He will have more surgery ahead. He also sends thanks for MiladyJo’s hip fixes seem to have worked very well with no complications. She is getting around fine, which is such a blessing after her long time of pain and mobility limitations. 5/25 – Cybersmythe sent word that he got a job! It pays well, but it’s by the Space Center (100+ miles round trip and the traffic sucks). It should be interesting work. 5/25 – Neverenoughcaffiene asked for prayers for all people affected by the barbarity of Hamas. 5/25 – NaCly Dog sent an update, that his wife (who we prayed for last month) is almost back to where she was before she broke 4 ribs.
6/8 – NacLy Dog sent thanks to the Horde for their prayers. 5/25 – Martini Farmer asked for prayers for his grandson, who will probably not graduate from high school due to poor grades. His family is (to put it nicely) “dysfunctional”. He will be here for about a month before summer school, and will be at a non-woke YMCA camp for 3 weeks. Hopefully his perspective will change. 5/25 – Tecumseh Tea gave an update on Pastor Joe, who we prayed for when he had brain surgery in February. He recently had an MRI, and his doctor is very concerned. He has to go for more tests. Please pray for him and his family. His answer to how he felt about this new development was: “In the words of King David, May I dwell in the house of the Lord forever”.
6/5 – Tecumseh Tea sent praise to God that Pastor Joe’s recent concerning test results turned out to be an infection, which is being treated. 5/25 – R posted that he got a call from his doctor’s office that recent tests found blood …. uh…. where it shouldn’t be found. Now he has more tests coming. 5/25 – Nurse Ratched sent thanks for the prayers from a couple of weeks ago. She is healing nicely. 6/1 – Polliwog the ‘Ette requested prayers for her sister C, who has surgery to remove some ovarian cysts and anything else in there that looked suspicious. Now she has to wait for the pathology report, and recover, which is complicated by her being extremely allergic to “all” opioids. Also, she is the family’s main earner, and her disability will only cover about 40% of what she brings in. 6/1 – Tonypete asked for prayers for his BIL, who is cognitively disabled. He lives alone and normally does pretty well, but recently quit his job, which has led to issues: namely money. Social services are involved, but it isn’t going well. 6/1 – G asked for prayers for healing and strength for Uncle Joe. Joe’s wife of 50 years passed earlier this year, and now Joe is having painful back problems. He is in pain and lost without Sally. 6/5 - Teresa in Fort Worth requested prayers for friends, Chris and Debby, whose 22 year-old son (Jeremy) passed away this week. Jeremy choked on food at his daytime facility. He had Down Syndrome and autism, and was non-verbal. His parents know he is in a better place and finally free of his health issues, but they still could use comfort. 6/7 – Village Idiot’s Apprentice posted that his radiation oncology follow-up went well, and he is cancer free. He will have to do surveillance bloodwork for the rest of his life, but that’s okay! 6/8 – FenelonSpoke asked for prayers for her friend and running mate, P. She has been in the hospital in WI with bleeding ulcers. She is doing better now, but still needs additional healing. Thanks so much. 6/11 – Sponge clarified the prayers needed for his wife, “The First Lady”. She has breast cancer, and the initial prognosis is good, as it is Stage 1 and caught early. It is an aggressive form of cancer, and but it is the most common, so they’re feeling good about her full recovery. They meet with the surgeon next week and will know more after that. For submission guidelines and other relevant info, please contact Annie's Stew, who is managing the prayer list. You can contact her at apaslo at-sign hotmail dot com. If you see a prayer request posted in a thread comment, feel free to copy and paste it and e-mail it to Annie's Stew. She tries to keep up with the requests in the threads, but she's not here all of the time, so she may not see it unless you e-mail it to her. Please note: Prayer requests are generally removed after four weeks or so unless we receive an update. 2 Corinthians 4:8-9
We are troubled on every side, yet not distressed; we are perplexed, but not in despair, persecuted, but not forsaken; cast down, but not destroyed.

Prayers needed for my wife's buddy Mike. He's in his eighties and suffers greatly from bone cancer. He and she are playing in a cornhole tournament today for charity but the poor guy can barely stand up and take a step. Hell of a guy.

Listening to Elgar's Enigma Variations and enjoying a 2nd cup of coffee. I think I'll make my self a bowl of oatmeal to start my day.
Saw the Princess Kate made an appearance for the Trooping of the Colors. She looked lovely. Maybe a little thinner than normal but you can't tell she's undergoing chemo.
The kids looked adorable. The boys in matching double breasted blazers and the girl in a sweet sailor dress. It's nice to see a little girl dress as such instead of like a 17 year old .

The whole exercise of "experts' and technocrats and the rest of it goes round and round.
First of all, it is a little rich for "Democrats" to advocate for rule by experts, since they also believe in the principle of universal suffrage, whereby a large cohort of individually illiterate and innumurate people will suddenly get smart en masse and vote for really smart people. Something like that.
The next problem is they killed and ate most of the genuine experts along the way. The "experts" first and foremost have to meet certain *political* reliability specifications. Nothing else matters.
That's why "credentialed idiots" is among the chief problem in so many arenas. They know they are incompetent, but it is their life mission to fuck everything up. For a lot of people it is a hobbby (we meet them almost daily) but these are the professional saboteurs, as it were.

Which is unfortunate - because we really are seeing a huge spike in big 'gub as well a Big Corp trying to coerce and save what would be considered our own private digital personal papers and effects. And it truly is both unprecedented - because we've never seen exactly this before - and not sustainable - because the economic and intellectual freedom needed to make such systems possible will die if the practice is not stopped.
So, of course, we'll deride it and minimize it because the weirdos are using the words. Just like conspiracy theory.

Its easier to monkey wrench a system when people trust and rely on GIGO but at a much higher scale.
I like how modern editors are now using LLMs to auto-suggest sentence completion; where you begin a thought and the editor's "code ahead" feature acts like a lifelong mate who feels obligated to finish your sentences.
Why I like it is because our language is rich enough and there is such an inventory of expressions there is no excuse to keep generating hackneyed posts. Its a constant reminder to be varied in my communications.
On one hand, people are generally stupid and being too inventive in communicating people go into brain freeze and find reading too tedious because of the need to fire more synapses to understand what is being said - hence the crutch phrases, business jargon and clichés.

My boss never drinks coffee. He mentioned once that, disliking the aroma, he thought of telling us to take the coffeemaker out of the break room. Fortunately he realized in time what an insurrection that would have created. There is no longer any place to buy coffee closer than a quarter mile from our building.

Now we have a couple of weeks to relax a bit and get some stuff done before Hubbymayhem gets a new job. He is going to be driving for Wal-Mart! He's a bit nervous about the first week when they test his driving skills. He's been driving coal and rock trailers for 15 years. Those are only 38 feet long. Wal-Mart trailers are 53 foot long. So its been a minute since he pulled a trailer that long. Any prayers for him to succeed in his testing and get the job would be appreciated.

In those days the astronauts had quite a lot of input and discretion on how things would develop. Wally Schirra said "Fine, but this necessarily means YOU don't get any coffee on the ground either." (After all, there is no nutritional value to coffee). Yeah - that lasted a few days at the nutrition building, and they dropped that bit of silliness.

I also like a milky coffee so that's what I drink at home. Occasionally for a change in flavor, I use evaporated milk only or with regular milk. We don't use any of the watered down garbage, only Whole Milk. In the hospital I was served 1% and although OK in coffee, it tasted like dirty water neat. Also it has a bluish, semi-transparent appearance. Yuck.

I didn't drink coffee until I got a 'real' job in an office. Everyone did it, the coffee pot was the hangout, and so I got used to a single mug each morning, but only during the week.
Like Lt. Col. Alexander Jefferson of the Tuskegee Airmen, I like coffee with my cream and sugar, though I dropped the sugar a couple of years ago (can you tell I made him coffee?). He was a cool dude, btw, one of the last of them, and absolutely NOT woke.

It must be a common Italian thing. Breakfast used to be a deep bowl of hot sweet milk, maybe a little coffee in it, and toasted Italian pagnotta (bread), broken up into small chunks suitable for a spoon. Slightly burnt bread for the win. Later in life it became toast and fried egg, sometimes with a small fillet steak (fillet was cheap in Africa between 50s and 60s). Now I don't do breakfast, haven't since my late 20s. I would take a couple of sandwiches to work for mid morning coffee break though.

There was a window of time - right after the Japanese internees got compensation - where this might have been feasible, though of course it was horribly unpopular.
Because the Democrats have become completely radicalized, it is more popular, but the transformation of American demographics has rendered it impossible in practice. Thanks in part to DNA testing, everyone is related to a slave, so everyone will get it except the all-important recent immigrants, who will then get it to compensate them for being recent arrivals.

We had Ninety Nine Ninety Five Ned back in the 70's.
Boxes over the tires, grease the lights and windows and spray.
There are a few cars around here still sprorting a Ned paint job.
Pretty easy to spot as the inside fender wells match the car.

They "prefer" homosexuality. They want to argue over that, correct? No no no... "I was born that way!"
And then it's off to the races. "Gender" refers to words. Not people. Words mean things, and if you can't grok that you'll never understand what they are doing to our language. Orwell was correct about that. Careful of your thoughts, because they become words. Careful of your words - because they become actions, things that will define your life on this planet.

Yep. The thing about liberals that always amuses me is that they assume - against all existing evidence - that imposing ludicrously inappropriate penalties for their thought crimes will ever work.
Obviously, this is projection. Liberals are physical cowards and social conformists, so the mere threat of a night in jail is sufficient for them to grovel and obey. But especially in Appalachia, you're going to have defiant hillbillies for whom an evening in jail is pretty much a regular rotation.

The universities are incubators or field sites where the research is performed, before rolling it out for prime time.
Recall the poor benighted Dorm room student. He passed out on his bunkbed. His roomate had a girlfriend, who decided this was a good time to give him a blowjob.
6 months later, said fellator was persuaded that she had been raped. Dorm room guy was expelled. No defense, nothing to be done about it. A mere "credible accusation", you see.

A lot of colleges will be going out of business soon. Several closed this spring. They are too expensive, produce no benefit, and a falling birth rate means there's just not enough students to fill them.

The Hawaiian judges have already ruled on that in Trump's first term - Democratic Presidents have an absolute right to issue executive orders, and Trump is not allowed to reverse them.

We'll press-gang them on the street, Ukrainian-style!
After all, Ukraine has trillions of dollars in minerals, and you should be proud to die so we can control them rather than China!

I'd be surprised if our nukes worked.

I didn't drill down into it but I was reading the Wiki page on the Hiroshima nuke and the insinuation was that it only produced something like 1% of the potential energy possible.
Any nuclear physicists in the thread?

Please turn off the news. Stop reading the news. Go for a walk. Hold the hand of someone you love. Call a friend. Go for a drive to the woods or a lake. Take someone to lunch.
You can be happy if you choose.

"Trading with the Enemy" gets pretty damn complicated when nations go to war. We saw a little bit of that, or a lot of bit of that, when "sanctions" were applied to Russia, and Europe took it in the shorts with respect to natural gas and food. Between Russia and Ukraine, they represent probably 10 or 20 per cent of kilocalories produced on the planet. And then there's gas, oil, and spent nuclear fuel rod refurbs, and all sorts of icky dirty industrial type stuff that the West is too pussified to bother themselves with, while they send emails back and forth to each other to bolster the GDP for the quarter.

The national labs have been quietly lobbying to allow very low-level nuclear testing, because they are worried about that.
