Sefton: sefton at cutjibnewsletter.com | The Classical Saturday Morning Coffee Break & Prayer RevivalGood morning boys, girls and everything in between. Our beloved KT is back home. She is thankful your prayers. Before we enter the Prayer Revival just a few housekeeping matters to go over. (Rulz for those of you in Stoughton.) 1) This is an open thread. Feel free to lurk, opine and/or bloviate away. 2) Be nice. Be kind. And no, I repeat no jumping on the futon. 3) Running with sharp objects is neither commanded or forbidden. Do you have the deductible? 4) Have a great weekend!

Many thanks to Annie's Stew for gathering the prayer requests and to MisHum for posting them. I think this is a very important thing we do-submit prayers and pray. It does make me both sad and angry at how many people are affected by problems because they may have had the Covid Shot . Not that's it's the reason for all problems, but it is a factor in so many.

Lord hear our prayers!
The Sock Monkey family needs some serious prayer. I feel like a bolt of lightning has struck this family. It's difficult to find the words to describe and I don't care to get into details. My daughter and 5 grandchildren are now living with us. There is abuse and addiction involved. To say I feel blindsided is an understatement. I'm angry. I feel betrayed, but most of all I am heartbroken for my grandkids and daughter. I still love my SIL, but it's impossible to see a road forward from here that is extremely painful. Please pray for us. Posted by: Sock Monkey * scio te ipsum at February 08, 2025 08:52 AM (G0ZJm) 28

Now that Climate Change™ is dying due to the funding drying up because of DOGE, revelation to the damage to the countryside from all of the mining required to fabricate "green energy" is today's new hotness.
With that, we discover that probably the best coffee growing region in Indonesia is also home to less than adequate environmental concerns w/r/t tailings from mining toxic metals that are used in the "green storage" industry. So Indonesian coffee in a K-cup, at what point does the risk of its damage override the benefit of caffeine? Posted by: Unknown Drip Under Pressure at February 08, 2025 08:55 AM (a4flb) 31

No country on earth is more affected by malaria then Uganda. Every single day, the mosquito-borne disease kills 14 children under the age of 5. Because of Trump and Musk’s actions, Uganda’s Malaria Council has suspended insecticide spraying and shipments of bed nets, one of the most effective tools in limiting the spread of the disease, have ended. --- I read this as advocacy for bringing back DDT.

I asked last week what made "chemo-therapy" different than other therapies for cancer. I got the answer.
Chemo targets fast growing cells, be they cancer or normal cells. Why it's so devastating. Can't heal from wounds, etc. Immunotherapy (which is the course my wife is on) boosts the immune system to try to get the body to take the cancer cells down on its own.

Posted by: Cuthbert the Witless at February 08, 2025 09:08 AM (vw/CC) --- I used to think the left was being hypocritical, but I now understand that the double standard is based on the Elect/Utterly Depraved division. If you are part of the Elect, you can do whatever you want. It's all good, because you are a Good Person and nothing you do can change that. Conversely, the Utterly Depraved (aka Deplorable) is always and everywhere wrong. Nothing they do is good, ever. It may produce good results of the surface, but there's always a deeper, hidden evil involved. You see this all the time. Rescuing children from sex slavery means they will be brainwashed by Christians or something equally awful. Also a lot of "made me do it" going on, i.e. "It's this war and that sob Johnson!"

Please pray for Inspector. He injured his rotator cuff last weekend, according to the osteo Dr. he saw yesterday, and even with muscle relaxants and narcotics he gets muscle spasms every time he tries to lay down. That means he's had to sleep in a chair all week so he isn't sleeping well. It also is making his feet and legs swell which is bad.
Besides the pain, he hasn't been able to work for a full week because it's his right arm that's injured and he can't type even if he could sit in his office chair. Please pray for healing and continued forbearance by his employer. Mostly, what he wants right now is to be able to sleep. Posted by: Polliwog the 'Ette at February 08, 2025 09:14 AM (lFFaq) 71

The medical researcher who decided "for lost cancer causes, why are we destroying their whole body/immune system when we know this treatment won't work anyway - maybe we should try to boost/build up their system and hope for the best" should forever be known far and wide. I wish I knew who came up with that thought and then executed it b/c that medical research was priceless for so many... Posted by: Nova Local at February 08, 2025 09:14 AM (exHjb) 73

Posted by: Nova Local Thanks for the encouragement. Polliwog, how well we know about sleep. My wife just met with the palliative care team, and she got the meds she needs to sleep. 2 days have made all the difference in the world. I think the anxiety from knowing you're gonna hurt in a few hours is as bad as the hurt. It's a real problem... these pain meds. Our regular pharmacy wouldn't fill more than a week of the (very low) dose stuff. Teaching Univ. pharmacy gave her a 3 month supply of adequate meds.

Pretty ridiculous that the left is whining about USAID not helping Africa anymore. While it might have done a good thing here or there it's destabilized countries throughout the continent since it's inception. By and large the continent is a mess and USAID has helped keep it there. Get out and maybe, just maybe, they'll figure it out on their own. Or due trying

It’s wild how propagandized the yuuutes are when it comes to climate change though.
On Reddit - yeah I know Reddit - I’m in the skiing sub. It’s usually non political. And is actually pretty funny too. People do love to crack wise about shit. Anyway someone posted a video about how global warming will destroy skiing. A version of this is posted every few days. I typically just ignore stuff like that. I didn’t this time for some reason. Ho Lee fuk. So one person commented something like stop worrying over this they’ve been predicting the end of snow for 15 years and here we all are still happily skiing. You’d think the guy just wrote a comment praising Hitler and killing puppies. The venom in the replies was fucking scary. Like please do us all a favor and die. It’s people like you who are keeping us from saving the planet. Your attitude is killing millions. On and on and on.

I tried duck eggs for breakfast. We bought eggs from a friend. A few dozen for 5 bucks. I eat a lot of eggs. Half of them were duck eggs. I didn't know what they'd taste like.
The eggs and the yokes were bigger with the yokes a bit firmer than chicken eggs. I had some kielbasa fried in a pan then added butter and fried the eggs. They had a more smooth texture and had less of the sulfur smell/taste than chicken eggs. They almost had a cream taste to them. I liked them overall. Very similar to a chicken egg which you might not even notice unless someone told you. I admit I'm a city boy and not use to the wild ways of my farming cousins, so this was a first for me.

Fleeing from the fleas is not an option.
Posted by: Ace-Endorsed Author A.H. Lloyd I worked for a couple years as a carpenter for a company that ran group homes for problems yutes. They owned a bunch of large homes that were built in the 1900-10 era. The census must have been down, so one house was vacant for about 6 months. Going over there to get it ready to reopen, the second you opened the door, dozens of fleas attacked your socks, ankles. Turns out, squirrels had invaded the attic and the house was infested. Took a lot of bug bombs to even make it to the attic a couple days later. Of course, the squirrels had damaged the HVAC in the attic and it took work in the eaves to seal out the squirrels. You don't want to live with squirrels, except maybe P-nut. Posted by: Lodge With My Fleas In The Hills at February 08, 2025 10:02 AM (G5+As) 203

So the squirrels were pushing the soffit back and storing nuts inside. People said to use chili pepper or other spices but that did nothing. I had to put chicken wire up there. While I was working putting up the wire, hammering it down with nails, squirrels tried coming in. I tried banging the hammer and that just pissed them off and I saw them reaching in.

Turns out that once you hit 40 years of being a member, you become a Senior Member.

Morning all,
After several weeks of silence from my sister, it was confirmed that she's in jail. Her string of bad choices continue apace, and the result is no surprise to those who know her well. Family and friends have tried to help her, but she lacks the ability to show gratitude and eventually burns every bridge. I'll keep praying that she finds shelter in a supervised environment that treats her bipolar disorder and narcissism. Prayers up to friends here, including Jewells, Theresa, Jim, and Brother Tim.

The ruling outright said firing these people would cause them harm. Therefore they can’t be fired. So I guess this sets a precedent that no private company can ever fire someone? That causes harm as well.

I need surgery and have been preparing for it for several months, jumping through all the hoops put in my path by insurance and the surgery clinic. Last Wednesday I was told that everything was done and I can have surgery in 8 to 10 weeks. Yesterday on Friday, the surgeon's office threw another roadblock in my way, one that is very difficult to manage. I am feeling discouraged and ask for the Horde's prayers.

Katherine Long is the WSJ reporter who doxxed the DOGE guy that got him fired for sh*t he posted as a youth. Turns out she did time at USAID so she's an embed. How many other journalists are embeds, not just fellow travellers?
I'd take the bet that someone gave her this leak to print without her doing a stitch of independent investigation. All the Murdoch media properties are infected beyond redemption, Fox included, except parts of the NY Post who continue to fight behind the lines.

I tried duck eggs for breakfast. We bought eggs from a friend. A few dozen for 5 bucks. I eat a lot of eggs. Half of them were duck eggs. I didn't know what they'd taste like.
The eggs and the yokes were bigger with the yokes a bit firmer than chicken eggs. I had some kielbasa fried in a pan then added butter and fried the eggs. They had a more smooth texture and had less of the sulfur smell/taste than chicken eggs. They almost had a cream taste to them. I liked them overall. Very similar to a chicken egg which you might not even notice unless someone told you. I admit I'm a city boy and not use to the wild ways of my farming cousins, so this was a first for me. Posted by: banana Dream === Have some chickens myself. The yolks are 'creamy' relative to the chalky yolks of store eggs. Never tried duck eggs though.

I'm not judging him by his skin, not the color nor the art. Tattoos don't offend me. But guys that age who have a lot of tattoos are generally not inclined to keep their language rated G or PG.

Good afternoon, all, & thanks Annie & MisHum
Prayers for all in need on the Weekly Prayer listing, family, close friends & caretakers. For those who have come off the listing but could still use prayer and encouragement during continuing recuperation and/or treatment, Lord hear our prayers. And for those who have lost loved ones, my sincere condolences & prayers for strength and peace for you. --- This is 10th anniversary of my (only & much younger) sister's passing so I went out to the cemetery earlier today. I still miss her dearly & found even a decade later, today was harder than the many routine times I visit the family plot. As I was placing flowers, I realized a beautiful red fox was sitting not far watching & it stayed until it was ran off by many watchful crows that also inhabit the tree lined area. I became more mindful of wildlife all around & the beauty of the cemetery & felt better. Valentine's Day is 10th anniversary of Mom's passing, too. She & Sis were in the same FL county & in 'sister' nursing homes when they passed. Mom was interred in FL but I'll still visit the family plot, remember how they butted heads & smile.😊 Posted by: L - No nic, another day at February 08, 2025 04:39 PM (NFX2v) 271
