A YEAR After “Two Weeks To Flatten The Curve”, City Wants To Waste Money On Plexiglas Partitions For Council Chambers.

A YEAR after “two weeks to flatten the curve”, the City now wants to piss away money on plastic partitions for City council chambers.

[Find link here and go to page 21 and 22]

Talk about closing the barn door after the horse has already escaped! I can think of MANY reasons for NOT wasting money on Plexiglas for City council chambers.

Masks, Plexiglas and social distancing do NOTHING. If you still don’t understand that, you have no business making decisions for the City and their $28 million operating budget.

The “dead wood” (extremely vulnerable elderly) has pretty much all been killed off by now after 16 months. Which means this thing has already done its worst damage, by far. If you still don’t understand that, you have no business making decisions for the City and their $28 million operating budget.

Much of City council and City Hall has ALREADY gotten ‘sick’ with ‘covid’ (Talbert, Kuehne, Nelson, etc). Therefore, they are no longer at risk. If you still don’t understand that, you have no business making decisions for the City and their $28 million operating budget.

[Incidentally, Kuehne literally wore her mask EVERYWHERE and ALL THE TIME. She even spoke through it at council meetings. How’d that work out for you?]

There is a vaccine out there spreading like wildfire at over a million doses per day. I certainly won’t take it, but all the scared rabbits are. This will supposedly protect everyone. Therefore, this thing is a miniscule “threat” compared to a year ago….so why bother with this bullshit now?? If you still don’t understand that, you have no business making decisions for the City and their $28 million operating budget.

Herd immunity will be here by April, according to people who are not complete idiots like Dr. Muppet Fauci. You are in FAR less ‘danger’ than you were a year ago, when there were no partitions. If you still don’t understand that, you have no business making decisions for the City and their $28 million operating budget.

This virus is most deadly to the extremely elderly and infirm. Pretty sure nobody on City council fits that description. If you still don’t understand that, you have no business making decisions for the City and their $28 million operating budget. If you ARE elderly and infirm, don’t run for City council. Stay home and watch Wheel of Fortune for the rest of your life.

[Besides, when Myles Haider stomps TJ Monroe for the mayoral position, the average age of council will drop about 6 years anyways]

Of course, they will go ahead and waste money on these ridiculous Plexiglas theatrics anyways, despite all the reasons I’ve given NOT to. Because that’s what the morons in charge do! It’s their nature.

On the plus side, with all of these dolts sitting in their little plastic cubes, they will look even MORE like the Seven Goldfish in a fishbowl that I have been calling them for the last 2.5 years!

P.S. I am unable to copy and paste the ridiculous statement from the City about why they are doing this, so I just took a picture.

By the way, it was FLATTEN the curve – not SLOW the curve.

Typical government bureaucrats: way BEHIND the curve!!

We Just Got A Taste Of “The Green New Deal” – Failing Wind And Solar

Too much wind and solar on a grid and you will get “ERCOT” with your pants down. Every time.

This chart of TX power generation shows you everything you need to know about trying to add lots of renewables to a grid.

The enormous variability of wind generation becomes instantly apparent. Wind is not real baseline power because it’s too unpredictable and variable. Power over sweep for wind is a third-power function of wind speed, so it’s always going to vary massively with small changes in wind velocity. It jumps all over the place. The variance is managed through fast spin natural gas plants that come online to take up the slack.

But we can see what happens when wind suddenly drops to near zero and stays there because, say, all your windmills are frozen solid in an ice storm.

Nat gas has been taking up wind’s slack and then some. It’s been going gangbusters trying to keep up. But demand is just too high and there’s just no more real, reliable power. The issue here is not too much fossil fuels – it’s not having enough. If the whole peak power of the TX system was nat gas and coal, we would have sailed through this with no issues. Same for nuclear.

At exactly the moment we needed peak power, the renewables went to near zero. So the grid broke. We see this time and time again where you have wind and solar exceeding about 30% of grid. We see it in Germany. We see it in California.

Working 96-98% of the time is not acceptable for things like power grids. It means you’re gonna get a week or two of this a year.

Listening to the green new deal grifters push more renewables to fix this is like watching a frat bro tell a pledge they just need a couple more shots of mescal to sober them up.

Even that moron Rhonda Witcher is jumping on the propaganda bandwagon. In the Feb 18th Radiogram, Rhonda tells us that “social media posts quickly turned to placing blame on renewable energy (mostly windmills), but that has since been found to be totally untrue”

Of course, Rhonda Witcher doesn’t provide any evidence that it is “totally untrue”. That is because Rhonda Witcher is a libtard devoid of logic, reason or any knowledge whatsoever.

These people are lying and they know it full well. they are making up “alternate facts” because, well, let’s face it, that kind of spin works.

City Forced To Turn Over LEDC ‘Business’ Park Prospect Impact Study

Well, score one for the taxpayer and the little guy.

Despite JC Brown and Finley’s best efforts to stymie me, the “impact study” the City had conducted for Eco-Strong as a viable candidate to be a “business” park tenant is now in my hands.

I think this is the first time the Attorney General has sided with me. The score may be something like 4-1 in favor of City attorney JC Brown and Mayor “Transparency” Talbert, but that’s ok. It’s nice to finally win one.

I started perusing the docs yesterday and I can already say, it looks like a whole lot of numbers pulled from asses. I will post more detailed analysis over the next week or so, but there are a few tidbits below. I figured the taxpayers of Lampasas would like to know what their City is considering getting into:

[If you need to brush up on Eco-Strong, please start HERE]

They are proposing the following:

“A 35,000 square foot facility that will recycle 500,000+ tires per MONTH”.

By my math, that is 16,600 tires EVERY SINGLE DAY moving through the “business park”. Sounds like absolute horseshit to me. Assume you had a truck big enough to carry 1000 tires at a time (a random guess by me). That means a truck pulling in there every hour between 5am and 10pm. Every single day. Forever.

I don’t buy that shit for a minute.

“The firm will initially have 30 workers – the initial average annual salaries of these workers will be $33,000”

Wow. Those are some high-paying, high-tech jobs there, Mandy! Shoveling tire crumbs into a furnace, or however they do it, for about $16/hr. I think I’d rather work my way up at Wal-Mart to $16 in a year or two, but that’s me.

Has anybody given a moment’s thought to JUST the massive amount of traffic required to transport 500,000 tires worth of material into and then back out of the property every month? The pollution?

I doubt it.

There is much, much more. We’ll be back soon with all of it.

Rhonda Witcher Won’t Like This One Bit!

CDC is out with it’s latest #COVID19 data through Jan 15th.

It shows that hospitalization rates and fatality rates plummeting.

Time to put the stupid behind us and burn the masks. Schools should go back to normal, kids should be sitting next to each other at lunch and sharing their Doritos. Basically rewind to 2019 and get your heads out of your asses.

Image

Canada, US, UK, Japan, South Africa and many other countries peaked within 3 days of each other. Coincidentally, it was around the same time the WHO updated testing procedures for what constitutes a positive test. Shocker.

Of course, graphs, charts, data and PCR amplification cycles are too complicated for libtards and mask nazis to grasp. They will never be able to admit to themselves they were duped.

Put This In Your Pipe And Smoke It…

All of you.

That means “Doctor” Rascoe, Dr. Hay, Potato-Head Fitzharris, Hubert “Heath” Humperdick, Julie Cain Landrum. Every single one of you mask-loving sheep can stick this in your pipe and inhale deeply.

You’ve been played. The evidence just keeps piling up:

A minute ago, I saw shocking, SHOCKING video of a maskless grocery story in Naples, FL Naples is in Collier County.

I compared deaths there to Imperial County, CA with one of the earliest mask mandates in the country

Yeah, Imperial has done way, way worse:

Image

I literally saw video evidence that mask compliance is extremely bad in Collier. I also know this because I visited there TWICE in the last three months and I also didn’t wear a mask. Very few people did. So they must have had more cases, right?

I mean, Imperial will fine you up to $1,000, charge a misdemeanor and up to 90 days in jail if you don’t comply

Nope. Imperial is way way worse there too.

Image

Now, you may be saying, well I assume Imperial is bigger and more dense, because that’s ALWAYS why numbers are worse, right?

Nope.

Collier has 187 people per square mile, Imperial is 34.

Collier has more than 5x the density of Imperial County. So that doesn’t work.

You might also say, well Collier might have a younger population, that’s a big influence on outcomes, right?

Oh wait, turns out Collier’s median age is 50.8(!!!)

And Imperial’s is 32.4.

Collier’s median age is 57% higher than Imperial, and yet Imperial has done so, so much worse.

So here we have two counties, one with an early mandate when cases & deaths were very low, threatening their citizens with huge fines & literally jail time.

The other county has people openly not complying. That county is older, and 5x the density.

And their results are better. Not just better, MUCH better.

How could this happen? I thought the science on masks working is “CRYSTAL CLEAR”. Our “health authority” told me! It’s crystal clear! The CDC Director said so! And he has never been wrong!

Oh well. Who cares right? Masks work because they work? Brain-dead clowns who probably can’t even balance their checkbooks (like Melissa Johnson) are the “experts” because they “feel” it’s right.

Normal, rational people are not going to put up with this mask shit for much longer. Not to mention the COMPLETE MORONS now wearing two or three masks. Hopefully that brand of moron will asphyxiate with all those masks on and not grow up to spawn future generations of morons.

One can hope.

This Hysterical Dame Should Have Her Kids Taken Away

I can’t even tell you how mad this article made me. If you want to know the result of a year of fear propaganda and what it was done to people who are supposedly educated then read this awful piece. The neurosis and fear is almost too much to stomach.

Hysterical Dame Freaks Out Over Nothing

Speaking of idiot parents…..

Out of 5.8 million students in Texas, we still have about HALF still at home and remote learning!

We’ve also been informed that even if these remote learning kids fail the STAAR test in the younger grades, they “can move up to the next grade”.

Yes, you read that correctly. If your kid is actually going to school, working hard and learning so they can master skills and move up to the next grade, they are complete suckers and saps because the moron kid who stayed home in his pajamas and who failed the STAAR test will ALSO be moved up to the next grade.

It must be so awesome to work in the government school system. You get huge raises like “Doctor” Chane Rascoe (now getting $170,000 per year nine months PLUS huge benefits), you get more money thrown at you all the time just by uttering “it’s for the kids”, but you are also not held accountable for the kids actually learning anything.

I guess letting the failures move up to the next grade just like the kids who worked hard will teach the hard-working kids a valuable lesson: in America, the laziest and dumbest people get to the top these days. There is zero point in taking responsibility or working hard because The Powers That Be (usually in the government) are going to fuck you anyways. May as well just become a cart donkey like Bruce Haywood and other libtards.

Why pull the cart when everyone else is sitting in it and getting a free ride?

I Think Ronnie Witcher May Be A Chick. Rhonda Witcher?

There’s no way Ronnie Witcher is really a dude, right? I mean, NO guy gets as hysterical and panicky over obviously fake bullshit news like Ronnie has gotten over “Covid hospitalizations!!!” for months on end.

He probably believes in astrology and palm reading, too.

Rhonda has spent months and months parroting some of the most outlandish and retarded claims of the Covid Cult. He has told us repeatedly that Texas hospitals are about to be overrun and poor Covid patients would be left dying in the streets. We have heard this crap going back for MONTHS!

Here is the reality:

Funny how it kinda rises and peaks right in line with flu hospitalizations from years past, isn’t it, Rhonda?

It’s ALSO quite amazing how the total occupation stays constant, while Covid is peaking. Almost like other sicknesses are being reclassified as Covid or something.

You’ll never see REAL data like this in The Radiogram. That’s OK. I only grab six of them every morning to line my bird’s cage and start fires in the fireplace on cold nights.

Maybe Rhonda needs a competitor. A weekly, one-page folder over paper that isn’t filled with liberal twaddle and hysteria, perhaps? Hmmmm.

LEDC ‘Business Park’ And Eckermann Payments (Part II)

We already covered the large amounts of payments (kinda/sorta hidden from easy view) that were made from the LEDC to Eckermann Engineering for the ‘business’ park debacle:

Eckermann Getting Sneaky-Paid

Now we I’ll walk you through a short exercise in logic:

  1. LEDC was making the first installment of those $70,800 in payments to Eckermann “for engineering services of Business Park Phase 1 Roadway and Utility Improvements” back in JUNE of 2019.
  2. It therefore follows that they were making these plans to have Eckermann “engineer” the park even before that – probably in early 2019. But for SURE in April and May of 2019.
  3. Covid-19 was not around back in June of 2019. It hadn’t been released on the world yet and would not happen for another 7 months – therefore, the LEDC and City HAD to already have a plan to pay for this “Phase I” construction, right? Their plan could NOT have been: “hey, let’s grab millions in federal Covid funds next year” because there was no such thing yet.
  4. If they DID have a plan on how to pay for all this back then, then why are they now screaming poor and talking about begging to Uncle Sam for some “Covid relief grants”? Why not go ahead with the original plan on how to pay for the Phase I plans that Eckermann was about to engineer for them (at a cost of $70k)
  5. The LEDC is funded by sales tax receipts and sales tax receipts were UP over 14% last year!! Therefore, the LEDC was not economically injured by Covid. Quite the opposite. Therefore, the original plan from May of 2019 on how the hell to pay for all of this should still be in play – nothing has changed in terms of LEDC funding
  6. If they DID NOT have a plan on how to pay for all of this after Eckmermann banged out his $70,800 master plan papers, then that is basically an admission of monumental incompetence and stupidity on the part of the LEDC and City council. They are basically telling us, “yeah, we wasted $70,800 for a pile of engineering plans, but we have no idea how we are going to fund the ACTUAL construction of those plans.

So which is it, LEDC??

Option one: you had a plan on how to pay for Phase I BEFORE you threw $70,800 at Eckermann – a plan you should still be able to use, since you have not been financially injured.

Option two: you had no idea back in June of 2019 how in the hell you were going to pay for all this and you were just winging it and playing it by ear. You were willing to waste $70,800 on plans that might never even come to fruition.

It’s either one or the other, guys.
