Skip’s Sauntering Snippets – #16 – Peak Transgenderism at both ends of its Spectrum
Is reality and science finally taking hold in the sports world when it comes to men that think they are women participating in sports meant for women only? Some additional thoughts buried in here as well: FINA just eliminated all transgender women who have undergone male puberty from swimming competition. Thus, unless parents commit child … Read more
Cracks in the Gilford School Board’s Continuing Support of Policy Jbab (Unfreedom of Speech, Lying to Parents)?
Last Wednesday night(6/15) was a joint meeting of the Gilford and Gilmanton School Boards held in Gilmanton rather than in Gilford (happens a few times a year) but in two parts. The first part was concerning the High School; Gilmanton tuitions its high schoolers to Gilford and that’s why this two-part meeting is held. It … Read more
The January 6th Hearings – A Pathetic Act of Desperation
It was more than a year ago that a mob of frustrated American voters overran the U.S. Capitol, not because they disagreed with the outcome of the 2020 presidential election but because they believed it had been seriously compromised.
Grok Straw Poll: Who is your pick for NH Governor?
The last poll about “who might be a good NH Governor was kinda all over the place with all those names, kinda amusing, I had fun with it, and a wee bit illustrative of how you, dear readers, are looking at people, politics, and positions. We haven’t been doing a lot of polls lately but I think this series might be illustrative as well.

Australia Joins Germany – Admits it Needs Fossil Fuels
Germany is over a barrel thanks to its dependence on green energy, and Russia neither being reliable nor capable of delivering without consequence. So, they’ve had to commit to burning more coal. Australia, another fool on a green hill covered with wind turbines, has announced they too need fossil fuels.
Islam Has Expired
Islam has expired, according to Muhammad himself. “How long your faith shall endure?” Muhammad was asked. “En salahat ummati fa laha yom. Va en fasadat fa laha nesfe yom. Val yomo ende rabbeka alfe sanaton men ma taedoon”—if my Ummah becomes righteous, it shall last one day; if corrupted, it shall last half a day. … Read more
Dear Mr. Ibram X Kendi, I Hope This Email Finds You Well.
Dear Mr. I X Kendi,
I hope this email finds you well.
With regularity, I have read of your striking perspective on antiracist politics. I would like to address some points with you directly.
Born January 23, 1983–Tehran, Iran -Died June 20, 2009 (aged 26)
What’s in a name? Sometimes a name seems void of any meaning, and sometimes a name embodies profound meaning, mysterious and even prophetic. Your name, our beloved Neda, the martyr daughter of Iran, literally means Divine Call, or Divine Summons, in Persian.
To Repeat, Granitegrok Is Often More Republican than the NH GOP
When I first announced the return of GrokTALK! a few weeks ago, in pursuit of likely guests, the very first response I got on my status update from a Republican Facebook page was, “Great, just what we need, more anti-Republican crap.” – Steve Go ahead, change my mind. Or rather, Steve’s and mine. Again, researching some stuff in GraniteGrok’s archives (try … Read more
Blogline of the Day – We Should Be Saying This More Often – MUCH More Often
Freedom just is – having to ask permission means it doesn’t exist
(H/T: Skip, September 12, 2014)
We are closing in on 47,000 published posts at GraniteGrok; we’ve covered a lot of issues, concerns, questions, and trouble. A lot of times, by several of us, and often, the same thing comes back up in different guises.
Chuck Morse: “Uneducated Rednecks”. Seems to be the L’idée Du Jour for the Republican Primary Election
For far too long, Democrats keep saying that their ideas are solid but their messaging is off. When they encounter pushback on both their ideas AND messaging, they start yammering “you need to get educated!”. I heard that a LOT during the Public Comment sessions at the Gilford School Board meetings as they listened to … Read more
Heavy Menstrual Bleeding After the COVID Vaccine – Guess Who Has a Drug To “Treat” That?
One of the side effects of the COVID19 vaccines is increased menstrual irregularities, including excessive bleeding. More bleeding. Extra bleeding. Reports of miscarriages also rose, and maybe it makes sense that they are connected but what to do.
January 6th? How About November 8th?
The long-awaited January 6 Committee Hearings have been a bust. If this were a made-for-TV mini-series, it would be canceled. In a way, it was when NBC affiliates cut away from the hearing to air a PGA event. The quiet of golf on TV was far more palatable than Liz Cheney committing political suicide to satisfy her angst for Trump.
Green Party Vice Chancellor – Germany is Going to have to Burn More Coal
When Donald Trump declared before the UN Assembly that Germany would be at the mercy of Russia because of its green policies, the elites scoffed. Germany laughed. Four years later, Economy Minister Robert Habeck announced that Germany must burn coal because they can’t get enough gas from Russia.
High Gas Prices: It Is All Your Fault, Joe. Own It
The US is currently enjoying the highest gas prices in its history. Many reasons for this condition have been given. The Brandon administration’s termination of the Keystone pipeline, denying drilling permits on Federal lands, corporate greed of oil companies, and even the current war in Ukraine have all been cited.
Maggie Hassan’s Fighting Against Big Pharma?
US Senator Margret “Wood” Hassan, Maggie, Mags, the Magster, also known locally as Maggie the Red, has ads on television. She always has ads. This one is about how she’s putting the screws to the healthcare triad and Big Pharma. Any chance that might not be entirely true?
Fake News: New Hampshire Bulletin Misinforms About Cause Of Electric Price Increases
Steve recently posted about the virtually unbelievable increase (50 percent) in electric prices in store for New Hampshire: Local utilities serving the Granite State are preparing to adjust what they charge for electricity. The cost of natural gas has skyrocketed, and that pain is about to find ratepayers’ pockets. Amanda Gokee of the “New … Read more
J16? – Colbert Staffers Arrested in Congressional Office Buildings After Hours [Update]
The J6 protesters are accused of insurrection (as reported in the media) for what amounts to trespassing – the thing they are being charged with (not reported in the press). So can we expect similar treatment for a handful of staffers who work for Stephen Colbert?
