So here we are, on a cheery Tuesday evening in CONUS or more precisely, North Central Texas (NCT). And what's going on? Vultures were gathering on lamp posts this morning as I patrolled to the Pick 'n Steal. Ominous, apocalyptic perhaps.
Were they a presage of things to come, the death of the PetroDollar in the face of a gold backed Ruble/Yuan? Maybe and let's face it, how can a currency which is an IOU at interest to a privately owned bank, the Fed, be worth anything other than debt? And we all know the problem with that, at some point someone wants to be paid back.
In other news, the Ukraine action is clearly a genocide, yes, of late Soviet era tech, and true to form our media and ruling elite are more or less baying for World War III. We have to mobilize for Ukraine if we don't want our democratic freedom to be destroyed by Russia, which has a GDP rather less than California.
Such an existential threat or would that be PR firm agitprop reinforced by every mainstream media outlet in the Western world. Remember Trump? Of course you do, what a miserable, traitorous Russian spy. As you savor his despotic, orange, NYC perfidy ask which country allows Christian prayer in state run schools. Which country isn't able to define the difference between men and women? Hint, not Chechenya.
But enough of that, we'll see how it all plays out. In the meanwhile, curry's on the go, vegetarian because Lent, and mango chutney. Here's the thing. A curry without mango chutney is a poor beast, but who wants to drive all the way to Waco to get it? No one. Solution? Make it yourself.
Stay tuned for another episode of Cooking With LSP.
Your Buddy,

I've often wondered, since the Federal Reserve Bank is private, are we taxpayers on the hook if it goes bankrupt?
William Randolph Hearst would be so proud. #Rosebud
I've developed a lot more respect for buzzards since attending a demonstration at the Buffalo Bill Museum in Cody. Truly one of God's creatures.
My advice to people about the world going from crisis to crisis? Turn off the telly and pull out a good book.
Can't wait for the cooking show!
Judging from that second photo, you were up early.
Tucker Carlson last night. Clips start at 3:13 mark.

It is stunningly obvious who the big dog in the room is, who is running .gov. They could install a cucumber in the oval office and it would make no difference, other than they would not have their brain dead mouth piece.
We're gonna need more vultures.
Meanwhile curry and chutney, with a side of fried bananas. I'm in.
That's a very good question, WSF, and now we're getting into pitchfork/noose territory.
History does seem to rhyme, Wild.
Well yes, DOS, there's a reason they're protected. And for sure, READ MORE. I tell this to the once and hopefully future Cadet, with more or less success. His generation, brought up on video games and screens, is badly illiterate. "Son," I say, "you'll have to read in OCS, if you get there, so you might as well start now."
It's an issue.
It was a sunset, Sgt., though it does look otherwise. I liked the shot for its red sun, as in "here we are in a scyfy novel" sort of thing.
Tucker's value, RHT, surprised he's still allowed on air. And yes, curry!
Now I know several readers of this mind blog (LL+) don't like a red dot curry but I have to say I'm partial. Hey, we don't all have to agree on everything, there's "no rule."
Stand by for a cookery in the near future.
Thanks buddy.
Glad to oblige, Ed.
LSP: I've been out of Texas for going on eight years and have lost the distinction between sunrise and sunset? Dang. Plan was I would be back to become part of the dirt. I might have to change that somehow.
