And after two condescending (and rather snotty) emails (here and here) DEMANDING comments from legislators who went “naked faced” during outdoor Legislative meetings, Mark Hayward has published his rant.

Alan Glassman, You Pulled the “Trigger” on the Wrong Guy
Last Wednesday, I was asked if GraniteGrok would observe the voting within the Belknap County Republican Committee (BCRC). Because, according to the two separate folks who didn’t know the other had done so, they thought the voting would be “interesting.”
Frederick Douglass vs The 1619 Project
A free slave vs Black race-baiters: one from our history who believed in the Constitution as being for all people vs someone that would rewrite our history simply to advance a race-based fiction (to which she has now admitted to doing).
New Addition to the ‘Grok “Stealing Campaign Signs” Hall of Shame: “Not One of My Better Moments”
We’ve been waiting a while on some paperwork outlining the EXACT disposition of this case but, like the trial, it has been delayed. Thus, not wanting to delay “closure” any more, here is the end result: Guilty Plea by one James Babcock.
HB576 lives on as HB459!
Maybe NO will Finally Mean NO when it comes zeroing out General Ledger items in a budget prepared by a Budget Committee. As longer term readers know, I was on my hamlet’s BudComm for three – three year terms (see “Tales from the BudComm“) and I had discovered a technical flaw in the budget process … Read more
BlogLine of the Day – just like wars and homelessness, right?
NOW THEY TELL US: New study: Lockdowns didn’t stop the spread of COVID-19 after all. Post-inauguration, it will all go away, won’t it? It will all go away – just like the anti-war protests when Reagan left office and when Bush I and II left office. See the pattern here? Ditto when a new Republican President takes … Read more
Palate Cleanser – Blue Origin Lands Its Own Reusable Space Rocket and Capsule
While SpaceX has been sucking the PR oxygen out of the now commercial launch industry, Blue Origin has also been making strides. Popular Mechanics had the story on its New Shepard rocket (named after Alan Shepard, the first man into space and a New Hampshire native).
Friday Open Thread on Saturday Morning – Hey, at least I remembered this week!
An insurrection with no guns by the insurgents, Twitter, FB, Google, and the rest of Big Tech Silence Parler. And with fences and razer wire surrounding DC, is President Asterisk trying to prove that fences DO work? Spill your guts, talk about anything and anyone; just keep it lively but not quite over the top!
Because House Democrats Are Oh So Virtuous…
House Democrats were intently focused on curbing free speech on the house floor by condemning certain speech as “Hate Speech” [emphasis mine: No such thing]. Let’s forget just for a moment that it would not be constitutional in any manner, form, or way and roll with their premise.
Prediction: Do You Remember the Foolferall Around Y2K? Yeah, That…
I flew around the USA like a MAD man prior to 2000 AD as all of our customers were going WILD that all their systems would fail because the traditional way of encoding dates was MM/DD/YY instead of MM/DD/YYYY.
Data Point – Public sector vs Private Sector: SPACE! The Final Frontier!
MOVING AT THE SPEED OF GOVERNMENT: The Orion spacecraft is now 15 years old and has flown into space just once.
Congress has pumped $23.7 billion into Orion for that single flight.
Disturbing Notable Quote – “Seeing Half the Country Cheer THIS On.”
The topic is the censoring of Conservative Speech even on conservative platforms (as opposed to the Big Tech platforms like Facebook and Twitter – you know, the “Mean Girls”). Disturbing – yes. Unexpected? No. Why?
So Marco Rubio believes that “Hope” is attained by a $2,000 Government check????
Sigh – Heinlein’s “Crazy Years” was a fictional prop but can’t even BEGIN to match what we are going through right now. Seriously, the American People’s lack of “hope” can be assuaged by a BidenCheck (hey, we had ObamaPhones, so let the belittling of the new Not My President begin!) to the tune of $2,000 … Read more
Sometimes We Get Surprising Things Back From the Daily ‘Grok Eblasts
The vast majority of ‘returns’ from our daily email blast are of the “Out of the Office for vacation or travel” types. Routine to be sure, but they give me a bit of insight into who actually wants to either read or monitor our content. This, however, was a bit out of the ordinary and certainly not expected.
The UL’s Mark Hayward is At it Again: WHY DIDN’T YOU WEAR A FACEMASK ON DEC 2????
Mark Hayward insisted on “outing” NH State Reps for their behavior back on Organization Day. I made sport of him then becasue instead of being a reporter he had willingly become just another MSM SJW.
Is It Just Me or Is The FBI’s Warning About State Capitals Just a Bit Disingenuous…
They are calling last week’s Capitol breach an Insurrection? That was about the most sorry-assed (I just swore again – I have GOT to get ahold of myself!!!) insurrections I have ever seen.
Belknap County Republican Committee – What a Mess
I’m here in Gilford observing the Belknap County Republican Committee (BCRC) officials’ election. I have cameras watching the “voting” laptop. Wow, this is a complete mess.
Do I Even Have to Explain This?
Sorry, I don’t care about Godwin’s Law anymore. If it fits, use it; I’m no longer concerned with being nice anymore. They are just going after anyone, Conservative / Libertarian / other or not.
Clerk Nicole Bottai & Moderator Peter Griffen from Windham Heel Dragging on AG’s Election Inquiry
Schmucks. I guess they are still butthurt after being outed for some really severe voter ballot-counting issues – where Republicans running for the NH House got shorted by 300 votes EACH as found in that recount. In a town that small, that’s not small potatoes.
NH GOP – Belknap County Republicans. This Ought to Be Interesting.
I’ve had a few phone calls over the last couple of days. Seems like they want GraniteGrok to cover the election of the Officers for the Belknap County Republican Committee.
