once you start letting them in your country, be prepared for a whole load of crap.

There you go, that's my good advice for the night, said

Last night was my first real encounter with a person in an Alzheimer meltdown - strictly speaking in the form of LBD, Lewy body dementia, but I'd never heard of that before. A local friend brought her husband over (we live walking distance apart) for me to persuade him she really was his wife and not a dangerous intruder in their house. He's at the stage where he fluctuates between seemingly normal, if a little disconnected, all the way through to angry aggression, and back again. It took 20 minutes or more to convince him to give her back her phone and house keys.

Thing was, and why the blog, she's convinced his worst episodes are shortly after she's given him his sedation meds, twice a day, which are supposed to stop him stressing and fretting constantly. Does anyone here know much about the disease, have you any input? She is on groups and getting support and a few others on her groups have also noticed similar reactions but doctors insist it is not the medication but the nature of the illness. I wondered if anyone here was clued up on the topic.

They've been good friends to me but I had no idea how bad things occasionally are as up to now I've only seen him during his vague-but-friendly stages. Last night tipped once or twice towards scary. So weird that he knew me, and eventually trusted me to be telling the truth, but didn't know his wife of many years. So, another question, and yes we're not supposed to ask questions on blogs but this is more of a conversation - any advice on the best way to react, if (when?) it happens again -

Can't ask on any other social media as this is my only anonymous outlet.

The world is run by an aristocracy, no matter what form they say they are. And they hate us peasants. In the 1970s, the DNR in Wisconsin started a thing about floods. They hated the fact that they had to maintain levees and wanted to get anyone at risk off the lands. Mom and dad went to the meetings. The one she mentioned was done by a woman head of the DNR. The plan was laid out what the DNR wanted and thought. At one point mom asked her..so if there is a flood, my hill and the neighbors will be under water. Huh..well.. No..BUT! We would have to send boats to rescue you. Mom said dont try it unless you want to be shot!
Another said if we go under, the county seat town will go first..why not clear them out?...no answer.
Another question about the future of land.. and that B stood there and said by the year 2000 no one will own private land but the government. And it will be massive national or state parks. Of course some wealthy will be granted the ability to build in them.
That woman was lucky she didnt get tarred and feathered.
Look at all the restrictions on public lands. Belongs to the people but you cant go there. Blasted BLM is as bad as the DNR. Can't take that eroded fossil..leave for others. Til it erodes to dust!
The aristocrats want us to live in the feudal system. They sit on their hill in the mansion. We sit below in the villages, rent from them our homes, work for them in their companies, buy from their stores and obey.
Wont sell..OK..then we will burn you out. Flood you out. And blame climate change while hiding the manipulations done to worsen the effects. Meanwhile bring in all the third world poor who will work as slaves and kiss the riches behinds. A democracy needs a slave labor to exist.

Why am I not getting an email from CS when someone writes to me? Have I done something wrong?

Would I be right in saying a Christian can't believe in both?
in my books it has to be one or the other, likeso with Reincarnation, Christians don't or shouldn't
One soul, that's it... simple as, end of.

If you are not a believer of either, no need for you to reply ...
just genuine replies only especially from those who believe in both.

Because I'm such a strong believer in the supernatural, as a Christian I have to say I do not believe in this judgment day we have all been told about

Boy am I glad, Mr Worthy is not around

Despite being thought of as cute and cuddly throughout our collective childhoods, mice are not welcome guests in many households. It's all fun and games being an animal-loving Disney princess until you catch one of these tiny, furry beasts scurrying around in your home. Not only are they destructive, eating their way into your food storage, destroying appliances, and causing property damage, but mice are also disease vectors and can pass on terrible illnesses through direct contact with them or indirect contact with their feces or saliva. Not to mention you'll probably have bags under your eyes from all that scampering in the night keeping you awake.
Fortunately, there is a common kitchen ingredient that is guaranteed to repel mice from your home: cinnamon.
These clever critters reproduce fairly quickly, so using cinnamon is a humane way of getting rid of mice without having to resort to genocide. If you suffer from an infestation and taking the chemical route with fumigation doesn't sound so hot, then you can choose the organic option to keep the pesky rodent problem at bay — while also keeping your environment smelling absolutely delicious.
Use cinnamon in stick or oil form to ward cute critters off.
Cinnamon is a widely available kitchen condiment that not only tastes great on French toast, but also can be used to drive away pests like mice. While the spice has a pleasing aroma to us humans, the reverse is the case when it comes to those furry rodents. What makes cinnamon so potent against mice is the strength of the scent: they can't stand it. Bad news for them, great news for you.
To repel mice, you can use either fresh cinnamon or cinnamon oil. According to Hunker, you can tie together bundles of fresh cinnamon sticks in a pouch and leave them at strategic locations in the house, especially where food is kept. If you have cinnamon powder, you can also tie it up in sachets or sprinkle it around.

A serious drunk walked into a bar and, after staring for some time at the only woman seated at the bar, walked over to her and kissed her. She jumped up and slapped him silly. He immediately apologized and explained, "I'm sorry. I thought you were my wife. You look exactly like her." "Why you worthless, insufferable, wretched, no good drunk!" she screamed. "Funny," he muttered, "you even sound exactly like her."



It's Black Friday and mall is packed with shoppers and Steve can't find his wife. Steve goes up to a very attractive woman and says 'Excuse me, can you help me? I cannot see my wife, and I know that she is here in the shopping mall somewhere. Can you just talk to me for a couple of minutes?" The attrative woman replies "Why?" Steve replies "Because every time I talk to a beautiful woman, my wife materialises out of thin air."



A husband comes home from work, grabs a beer from the fridge, and sits down to watch the ball game. His wife sneaks up from behind, with a tightly rolled up magazine and hits him over the head with it. "Ouch!!! he yells. What the hell was that for?" The angry wife says...."That's because I found this in your pants pocket!!" She shows him a crumpled up piece of paper. "What is that?" he asks. She opens the piece of paper, which clearly has the name "Laura Lou" written on it. "Who is she?" the wife asks. The husband rolls his eyes and says to her, "Jesus, what's the matter with you huh? I've been married to you for 25 years, and not once have I ever cheated on you, nor have I given you any reason to be jealous.....yet you continue to pull this crap on me. When will you ever trust me?" The wife screams back at him, "Well who is she!" The husband replies, "Laura Lou, is the name of a racehorse. I got my haircut yesterday, and the guy next to me gave me this hot tip. Laura Lou in the 4th race, a sure winner. I wrote it down so I wouldn't forget the name. So there, ya feel better now huh?" The wife apologizes. The next day, the husband comes home from work, sits down and watches the game. His wife sneaks up from behind, but this time holding an iron skillet. She whacks him in the back of the head, knocking him out cold. When he finally comes to, he looks at her and says, "What the hell is wrong with you.......now what?" The wife smiles, and says, "Your horse just called."

Young man gives up first-class seat to an elderly lady after hearing her story
When 88-year-old retired nurse Violet boarded a plane following a visit to see her daughter, she was completely unaware that she was about to get one of the most magical experiences of her life.
She had hit it off with young man Jack and the two had chatted before boarding the plane, during which Violet had revealed it was her dream to travel at the front of the plane.
Unbeknown to her Jack and his family were traveling in first class and what he did when he boarded the plane has attracted the praise of people around the world.
When Violet got on the plane she was informed by the flight attendant that she was to swap seats with a passenger in first class allowing Violet to travel home in style and fulfill her dream.
“Of the hundreds of flights I’ve operated, I’ve had the pleasure of looking after footballers, supermodels, and some Hollywood movie stars but let me tell you about my two favorite passengers EVER!
“Jack and Violet. Jack and his family purchased seats In our upper-class cabin for a flight home, but when he got onboard, Jack went and found violet in the economy and swapped seats with her.
‘The kindness of his own heart
“He then sat on the row of seats directly next to the economy toilets and never made a peep or asked for anything the rest of the flight. No fuss, no attention, literally did it out of the kindness of his own heart, no one asked him to .
“Violet is 88 years old and has been a nurse. She travels to New York to see her daughter but hasn’t been able to for a while because of a knee replacement. Her dream has always been to sit at the front, and Jack made that come true.
“You should of seen her face when I tucked her in her bed after supper. She said her daughter won’t believe her and wanted a ‘selfie’ to prove it.”

"In former president Donald Trump's third criminal indictment - the one recently issued by a District of Columbia grand jury for Trump's attempt to overturn the results of the 2020 presidential election - he's charged with a conspiracy to deprive the American voters of their voting rights. Accordingly, the American people are the victims of that particular crime.

The federal law - specifically, the Crime Victims' Rights Act, 18 US Code section 3771 - provides that crime victims have a right "not to be excluded" from the trial. If the trial is not televised, the victims of Trump's crimes WILL BE EXCLUDED FREOM THE TRIAL in violation of federal law."

I think there will be consequences of the trial being televised, or not being televised.
