No names

Which, given the style of murder, should tell you all you need to know:

A man has been arrested in London after a woman was found beheaded in a garden near a home.


THis is what the folks in europe will face, more and more, as the fruits of their immigration policies (put in place for cheap labor and to help pay their entitlement programs) will be seeing more and more.




And the destruction of their culture and eventual loss of their country is soon to follow.


THe US will be only a few short years behind only with Mexicans and other Hispanic peoples doing the destruction f we don’t fix our border soon. 



The price of an unmoderated internet

Pawnbroker

You can find an example of why Tam got spooked HERE on Roberta’s blog.

Dude has been asked to stay away and not comment….

Does it anyway.

Won’t go away. Won’t stop.

Denies being a stalker, but exhibits the exact behavior defining a stalker.

Not happy with what he has done to Tam, he hasta go onto her roommate’s blog to make a statement since Tam’s blog is shut down. Thinks he has a right to be heard.

What an ass. In an older time, he’d be beaten or run out of town on a rail.

Now he can’t be, lest the person doing it be jailed.

(Notice that while he talks big, he won’t tell anyone his place of business, his address, and note also that he posts anonymously. Telling that innit?)

ETA: apparently Tam is not the first person he has stalked over the internet(see comment #1) and driven off.

Bummer

So apparently Tam has closed her blog to the public. 

Rumor has it that it was due to an extremely bad commenter. There are people saying that there were some kind of threat made, but as I cannot see the blog I cannot comment beyond that.

In a perfect world, we’d know who (and where) this asshole was and find him and beat him up until he saw the error of his (or her) ways.

This ain’t a perfect world, sadly.

I hope Tam comes back, and that she remembers that many of us consider he a friend. She is a fine lady, and a great person. It would be a shame if the asshole wins and drives her from the web.

Now it is possible she has closed her blog so that some sort of investigation can take place and she will return shortly. I hope that is the case.

Dear lady: you will be missed…not just for your Snark, but for your insightful commentary.

Please, come back.

This could happen to any of us

I wonder how he is gonna get out of the psych eval?

Seems some dude wrote two books. One in 2012 and one in 2013. One of the books mentions a school massacre in 2902.

Now this dude is a teacher. And someone connected his pen name to hsi real name. And apparently went nuts.

He has been pulled in for psychological evaluation and his home and workplace searched.

His whereabouts are currently unknown. He has been, effectively, disappeared. 

On ‘Administrative Leave” from his job and tossed into a psych ward. For a book he wrote over a year ago.

This is wrong on so many levels. That a law enforcement officer would do such a thing, that any law enforcement agency would condone such behavior, and that it can happen in a society like ours.

I see a 7 or 8 figure settlement for him coming soon from the Dorchester County Sheriff.  Plus some more from the School Board…..Lots of time for him to hone his writing skills in the future.

Some disassembly required

 The fruits of last weeks labors:

We got firewood for next year:

those rounds are 40″ + diameter. Tree was somewhere around 130 years old.

Lots and lots of firewood:

Wind damaged trees supply most of my heat every winter. The smaller rounds are 20″-25″ dia, the larger one in the foreground is 34″

This was a big tree:

 
Unloading these from the trailer without the tractor and log tongs to lift them required a lot a careful work with a large bar…..

There is more to get, but what with all the rain (nearly 7″ since the last Saturday when cleanup began), the ground near the tree is of a consistency somewhere between oatmeal and pudding. Kinda hard to carry rounds weighing in the range of 400-600 pounds through that. Traction becomes an issue, even with 4 wheel drive…..and he doesn’t need his yard torn up any more.

Now we just gotta split it into “stove bolt” sized chunks.

The cool thing is that in the 19 years that I have been heating with wood, I have never had to cut down a live tree. There is enough storm and wind and ice damage every year that I get plenty of firewood selected for me by Ma Nature. I just haveta cut it up and split it.
