I don’t know, apparently not.

From SG Anon yesterday :

“A major false_flag against America is coming, which will propel us at warp speed into the future. More on this in the coming Audio File.

See you soon.

Phil is supposed to finally do a livestream tomorrow evening — Monday 12/23 at 7PM. Check here to confirm.

This will come five days after he told us he had HUGE news — “undoubtedly the most earth-shattering news I’ve ever reported”.

Also, Trump posted a long very interesting comment about the Panama Canal, saying, in part:

“The United States has a vested interest in the secure, efficient, and reliable operation of the Panama Canal, and that was always understood. We would and will NEVER let it fall into the wrong hands! It was not given for the benefit of others, but merely as a token of cooperation with us and Panama. If the principles, both moral and legal, of this magnanimous gesture of giving are not followed, then we will demand that the Panama Canal be returned to us, in full, and without question. To the Officials of Panama, please be guided accordingly!”

But from il donaldo trumpo:

“I PROMISE NOT TO DO THIS TO PANAMA!!!”

And there were other somewhat ominous posts by Q- followers. I’m not going to post it all here, but it was enough to make me feel, like: Oh crap…. now what?

And nary of sign of Trump with popcorn this time…

So I guess we just stay alert and wait and see.

On the home front, I had a really nice pre-Christmas celebratory lunch at Tequilaville with my Q-following girlfriend yesterday. It was her first time dining at Tequilaville, and she said: “Wow, the food here is really good. I never even knew this place was here!” She lives about 8 minutes from there. And now she wants to start meeting there more often for lunch.

I tell you, gang, more proof that you can’t judge a book by it’s cover:

Overall, it’s been a really intense Christmas season for me. The combination of the caregiving jobs and my dad being gone now. But here’s something I can attest to:

Hawthorn Berry tea is GREAT at getting your heart to stop racing. I find that my heart has been racing constantly, the last couple of weeks.

2 tablespoons dried hawthorn berries, steeped in boiling water for about half an hour (longer is even better). For me, it starts working right away. (If you have high blood pressure, 2-3 cups a day is recommended.) (You can also take the dried berries as high potency pills, but I’ve never tried those.)

Anyway, I’m hoping to survive this Christmas, if only for the sake of the 723 cats who are relying on me around here. And I am hoping like HECK that next Christmas will be, I don’t know — less overwhelming.

And here’s our Daily Feature!

What Would Keith Richards Do?

And while it comes from the really interesting final chapter, titled: A Chronology of Trouble, it’s really different from anything we’ve landed on so far. The topic is CHILDHOOD.

It’s long, but in part, it says: “…he has a dream to be Roy Rogers: ‘He could shoot, play the guitar, and ride a great horse. What more do you want?’ Little Keith ‘Ricky’ Richards dresses up as Rogers, with cowboy hat and holsters, but is well known as a crybaby…”

After reading this passage on Keith Richards’ childhood, what sprang to my mind was that my grandmother, Cora May (yes! the same woman that served as my inspiration for the novella, A Man in Her Arms ), grew up next door to Roy Rogers (aka Leonard Slye), back in Portsmouth, Ohio, a really, really long time ago. And they were great friends until he went off to Hollywood to become a cowboy in the movies.

It is such a small world, isn’t it?

And that is it for today.

Enjoy your Sunday, wherever you are in the world! If you live State-side, stay alert.

Thanks for visiting!

I love you guys. See ya!

I leave you with this. It is a fantastic Tribute album, wherein a bunch of Country stars, from the 80s-90s, sing duets with Roy Rogers on some really great songs. It was his last album. It charted at #17 on Billboard’s Country Charts. If you have time, listen to the whole thing, because it really is a great collection.

“Roy Rogers Tribute”, 1991. Enjoy!
