I first met KrisAnne Hall at a Government Integrity Project at the Crossing Life Church in Windham, NH. A very good speaker; she knows her material cold, has an engaging (on the serious side but it fits for the serious subject matter) style of speaking – an urgency for we Americans to wake up and take note of what is happening.

Ken Wyler Is Right – Biden’s COVID Money Just Another Attack on Federalism
The Federal Government is almost ALWAYS taxing We the People and filtering it through the DC bureaucracy. They then send it back to us (after taking their cut) but with strings attached. Sometimes those strings are just strings but they are often as thick as bridge cables.
Notable Quote – Manmade Crisis That Only Those that “Recognize” It Can Fix It
What they [the media and politicians] want to hear are things that make for excitement, crusades, and a chance to be on the side of the angels. They want statistics or anything else that blames our whole way of life for creating catastrophic dangers that only the wise and noble few can save us from. … Read more
Real Life Example of Othering the UnVaxxed – Democrats Denying them Unemployment…
The Democrat’s Inner Totalitarian selves have exploded out of their chests like the alien in the Ridley Scott movie. Take Biden’s Emergency Order that all staff in nursing homes have to have The Jab to work there.
Quick Thought: About the Left’s Kvetching That “Vaccines Shouldn’t Be Political”
Not only this “lady” but also our current Vice President, Kamala “Toes Up” Harris, made it quite clear that BECAUSE the approved (Emergency, standard) viruses were developed by the Trump Administration showering Big Pharma with billions of dollars under Operation Warp Speed, they were to be shunned:
Palate Cleanser – So, which countries hate a Brand the most?
Not much I can add to this – it was just interesting to see which country hates a consumer brand the most. But really – Uber here in the US? I would have thought it would have been Comcast.
Friday Open Thread – So, how goes it with you?
The Grandson is getting more comfortable with his kindergarten schedule, TMEW and I are liking the quiet during the day, the campaigns are getting louder, and School Boards are realizing that their Holier-and-Better-Than-Thou days may be heading for the downside. But can we last the next three plus years of a Biden Presidency or are … Read more

Palate Cleanser: To All You Code Pushers Out There – Did This “Bug” Ever Bite You Hard?
Some of us would rather do other stuff (including engineering OTHER software) so we (programmers) are known for spending an inordinate amount of time to take something relatively easy and to try to make it irrelevant.
Notable Quote – No, we’re “not all that” as some think they are
“So the great lesson of humility which science teaches us, that we can never be omnipotent and omniscient, is the same as the lesson of all great religions: man is not and never will be the god before whom we must bow down.”
Why Did Patrick Hynes Leave Out Any Mention of Mower’s Chris Christie Connection in His Sunday UL Op-Ed
I’ve known Patrick almost as long as GraniteGrok has been around. He even linked to us when he had CrushKerry.com (now defunct but the domain is for sale for $2,495). Doug, Pat, and I even had a radio show called Meet The New Press. So, we know each other.
So, Fake “republican” Neil Wetherbee is a Bernie-Bro Like Our Departed Bruce Currie
The latter (Bruce) has been thrown off “the Island.” It’s what happens when those who think they are “part” of the movement get their just desserts from those who KNOW they are in charge. So, should the Conservative voters in Derry do the same to Neil Wetherbee – a Bernie (Sanders) Progressive Wolf’s clothing?
Rule #2 for the SAU46 Chair (Merrimack Valley School District) – Don’t Threaten to Arrest Everyone…
At the 9/20 MVSD School Board, it was clear that the NH State Reps were going to be stymied by that Board. All of the former’s issues were at the bottom of the list even though this meeting requested by them was a result of their constituents complaining that the Board was ignoring them.
Blogline of the Day – I wonder if CNN’s talkers Cuomo / Lemon even know what that kind of person does?
Carlson Rips Cuomo: ‘Dumbest Person Ever’ On Cable, Makes Don Lemon ‘Look Like A Particle Physicist’
I nearly choked on my spit on that line. Any STEM person would know but these two clowns who pontificate as if their opinion actually matter are on the lowest-rated Cable News Opinion network:
Rule #1 for the SAU46 (Merrimack Valley School District) – Don’t Use a Janitor as a Cop
Monday night I was asked to “assist” at the School Board meeting of SAU46 by one of our Groksters, Mike Moffet (R-Loudon). No, not to help the School Board.
Prequel to Rule #1 for the SAU46 (Merrimack Valley School District) – Challenge them. I did – with RTKs!
If one lesson is to be learned with Parents trying to deal with School Boards is this:
They aren’t used to being challenged
Most of us at my Grandfatherly age got and most earned decent educations K-12. It was subject matter after subject matter and not Social Justice during Block 1, Black Lives Matter in Block 3, and Critical Race Theory sprinkled throughout the day.
Why I Don’t Believe the NH Media When They Say We Are “Bed Short” With “Not enough Staff”
For a couple of weeks now, all we’ve been hearing is that NH hospitals are getting overloaded with patients – and using “COVID” rather broadly. WMUR has certainly been doing its job on the WuFlu Panic Porn front with breathless announcements, updates, and anecdotal updates from our “health providers.”
New Hampshire Knows BEST Conference
UPDATED and BUMPED: Use the code “GraniteGrok” and your tickets will be FREE!
For those of you in NH, especially in the Lakes Region, that are concerned about the rapid change of injecting Social Justice and Critical Race Theory into your child’s/grandchild’s school system by “the Professional Staff” (whether you like it or not), this is a conference that you do not want to miss!
Awe, A Certain Tuftonboro Teacher (Brian Bloomer) did have the Sads yesterday.
But we will never know what happened to the Progressive dude who brought this unto himself. Only way we’ll know is to keep checking SAU46’s roster to see if his name is still on it. Steve broke the story that Brian Bloomer, a fifth grade teacher at the Tuftonboro Central School, decided to go on … Read more
Data Point – Who Keeps More of Your Money: You or the Government?
“One would think that in a nation founded on liberty that we’d be free to spend more on personal consumption than the government takes from us. But that’s not the case.”
