Good signs and not so good signs,,,

No animosity here,,,,

Coz has no issues with Kitteh helping himself to Dawgum food,,,   Elbee likes the Salmon that I am feeding Cozzie, and he helps himself to some of the choicer nibbles, and Coz just watches, or even eats right alongside him.   

Coz is on a raw diet for a couple of weeks.  and after three days, it does seem to be helping, some at least.   Boy still has some of the raunchiest farts around though.   I’ve heard ALL pitties are farty puppies,,,  Don’t recall that with my daughters pup, but that was years back and she was busy building her own life at that time, so our visits were hit or miss.   I have probiotics to give to him and I will start adding them to his diet in a couple of days.   Hopefully that will ease the raunch: with as bad as they are, I don’t expect to eliminate them completely.  The boy will clear an open air porch, no lie!!!

But,,,,   I am VERY happy to see “no food aggression” in him.   And on that note, he and Elbee are actually pretty tight.   Elbee decided it was a night out and took off just before sunset.   Cozz has been moping on the porch ever since, wondering where his buddy went off to, watching the wood line where Elbee usually returns from, waiting, patiently,,,

poor pupper,,,

I didn’t get a picure of it, but this afternoon, during siesta time, they were laying on the porch, back to back, zonked right out without a care in the world.  Snuggled up like homies.   I know Zooms isn’t all that fond of him yet, but give it time,,, At least Zooms is coming home again.  Mama,,,   What can I say: she hates everyone, tolerates at best and whacks on everyone, including me.  She’s just the psycho kitteh Queen around here.   (and why I much prefer Tomkats now.   They seem much more laid back about life, and don’t take themselves too seriously, unless there is a femmefatale about,,, then its ALL seriousness,,,)

On the world stage, Trump is, right now,  announcing to the world that he ordered the strike against Irans Nuclear program sites and that all three have been obliterated.   Assuming intel has thier shit wired tight, then I would say the call is correct, but it leaves a big can of worms, laying open in the sun getting all stinky.  I think things just got escalated on the world stage, (and Iran issued a statement that all Americans are now targets, no ifs ands or buts about it.)   I just keep watching.   I can’t worry about it, too much going on that is so far out of my hands.   I just keep the prep buiding going.   You should to!   Who knows which way the wind is blowing here: I can only hope that we keep boots off the ground this go’round in the ME.   The neoCONS have no sense of proportion and have raped our military of usefulness over the last 25 years, squandered their budgets on toys that don’t work and let the arsenals go dry.  (fact, the bombs that were dropped on Iran tonight were likely over 20 years old, and considered NEW by usual armament standards.   Our best fliers are older than that, including the B2’s that delivered the ordinance.)  Matt Bracken pointed out just the other day, that ALL of our military personel number under a quarter million (I believe 175,000 was what he quoted)   thats ALL of them, not just the trigger pullers, and more than 2/3rds are support and logistics, not trigger pullers.    Those numbers don’t add up to well when things go kinetic with boots on ground. (look at the numbers from the Ukraine/Russia thing, and thats been going on for 4 years now,,,,  )  I don’t want to see American soldiers and Marines dying again.

Add to that ‘don’t wanna see dying again’,,, Navy and National Gaurd.    They, those that won’t ever be held accountable for war, or feel its fires, will have no issues sending the young’uns to die for their power plays.  

That is what my time in taught me.   I was one of the lucky ones, being in a war that lasted literal days, not years.    But I learned that lesson well. (and some might say ‘maybe TOO well, ya unpatriotic bastache!’   Yeah,,, whatever… I love my country, I love the Constitution, I love the general attitude of AMERICANS .  I despise the majority of those that claim the title ‘representative of the people’.)

And I still think this is all smoke and mirrors to something much bigger going on that is being kept hush-hush.  The BRICS are still in play, and right now, two of those players have every sign of following Sun-Tzu’s teaching “Why fight when your enemy is destroying himself”,,,  

Think about it.
