I send an email list a number of links with comments every day. It is what I do instead of blogging every day.  I am planning to try to put those links up here every day, it’s a job, but someone has to do it.

I’m proud of my daughter Teresa Hoese Thibodeaux for posting this on Facebook and calling it to my attention:
For Want of a Nail
For want of a nail the shoe was lost.
For want of a shoe the horse was lost.
For want of a horse the rider was lost.
For want of a rider the message was lost.
For want of a message the battle was lost.
For want of a battle the kingdom was lost.
And all for the want of a horseshoe nail.
The Metcalf Incident

At the end of the attack, in the words of reporter Rebecca Smith, who put the story together through interviews, PG&E filings, and police video: “A minute before the police arrived, ‘the shooters disappeared into the night.” As simple as that.

The Metcalf power station was down for 27 days and the cost of the damage was estimated to be $15.4 million. Electrical power to Silicon Valley was not disrupted only because officials rerouted power there from other sources.

In the scheme of things in the world today, that’s no big deal, right? That seems to be the official response to the attack. As Rebecca Smith put it: “…quoting an FBI spokesman in San Francisco saying the bureau doesn’t think a terrorist organization launched the attack. Investigators, he said, ‘are continuing to sort through the evidence.’ PG&E, in a news release, called it the work of vandals.”

Fortunately, not everybody is so sanguine. Jon Wellinghoff, who was at the time chairman of the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission, is quoted as saying the Metcalf attack “was the most significant incident of domestic terrorism involving the grid that has ever occurred.”

As I’ve said before, read it all.  This is the reason so many have taken the survivalist training and are prepared for the worst.

I hate to call names, but the term useful idiots comes to mind when I read things like this. Senator Tom Harkin; Once Bitten Twice Duped

If Justin Beiber had returned from Cuba smitten with its healthcare and calling it “awesome!” most Americans would understand. But Iowa Senator and Obamacare champion Tom Harkin serves as chair of the Senate Health, Education, Labor and Pensions Committee. He just returned from an official tour of Stalinist Cuba hailing its healthcare as “quite remarkable.”

Obama’s MyRA is like a lot of his executive orders- not exactly legal.

I cannot believe an adult actually wrote this: Why do the Republicans want us to work all the time? umm…. maybe it’s because if you are able you should support yourself and your family and not depend on others?  Has the author considered what the alternative actually is.  How many artistes are there out here? There are many talented people but do we really need to support their muse?  I don’t really think so.  Emerson, Thoreau, I don’t think they expected tax money would be used to support them. In regards to this I know we’ve all been thinking Orwell lately. Ed Driscoll puts it in words.  Is Peak Orwell Sustainable?

I read Alan Caruba’s Warning Signs on a daily basis. Here is one of his good ones, meaning he said it better than I could and I agree wholeheartedly. There is No Global Warming and Will Be None for Decades
