Thanks to all who serve and have served, and…
Thanks for Reading!
[Tip! Don't want to read my intro? Then click here to go right to The OPPRESIONIZER! and see if YOU'RE an oppressor!]
You hear or see it reported nearly every day…
A person or group claiming they have been or are being oppressed by the opinions, demands, or actions of some other group.
Oppressed because they can’t irreversibly change their gender or abort their unborn child without their parents knowledge,
Oppressed because a college degree in, say, “Australian Flea Massage” doesn’t make them instant millionaires,
Oppressed because they believe everything would be free if it wasn’t for
those “greedy” corporations,
Oppressed because they think opinions they don’t agree with are mean, hateful, or devisive,
Oppressed because they can’t have everything their way all the time whenever they demand it,
…et cetera, ad nauseam.
Rather than trying to tell these people about how you…
had to walk to school 10 miles every day, uphill both ways, barefoot, in the snow, all year round,
had a TV with just 3 channels, and only one phone wired to the wall,
were kept in line by parents & grandparents (who you loved & admired),
school teachers (who weren’t biased), priests (who taught you morality),
and police (who you respected),
…et cetera,

why not simply check if YOUR beliefs or opinions make YOU an oppressor? It’s really easy! Click the image at the right and then spin “The OPPRESSIONIZER”” and see if your personal values or responsible decisions make you an oppressor: It’s quick, guaranteed to be totally unreliable, but completely free! |

During 2021 America’s railroads shipped 3,300,000 rail car loads of coal.
Each standard rail car can hold up to 240,000 pounds (that’s 120 tons!) of coal.
One standard coal car can hold enough coal to power 19 homes for an entire year.
In 2021 railroads shipped enough coal to power 62,700,000 homes for an entire year.
“Anybody who can go down 300 to 3,000 feet in a mine can sure as hell learn to program as well.” - Joe Biden, Dec 30, 2019
“We’re going to be shutting [coal] plants down all across America…” - Joe Biden, Nov 4, 2022
During 2021 America’s coal industry lost 7,125 jobs, or 11.8% of their total, mostly union, workers.
What would be the fastest way to shut down coal in the United States, immediately creating a crisis of energy right before winter which would force people to accept “Green Energy“?
Shut down America’s rail system by having the rail Unions go on strike.
Just that simple.

There’s a lot of noise lately about a potential railroad workers strike, which would cost the economy $2 Billion per day: An economy which under Joe Biden is already experiencing the worst inflation in over 40 years, supply chain problems, fuel shortages, and possibly a prolonged recession.
Currently America has 12 Railroad unions representing approximately 125,000 workers, with a little over half of those workers represented by the Brotherhood of Maintenance of Way Employees Division of the Teamsters Union. In order for any labor contract to pass all 12 Unions must approve the contract.
So, while you face the possibility of empty shelves this holiday season why not compare YOUR job’s salary and benefits to those of a Class I Rail Worker? And then maybe reach for those “Holiday Spirits”?
Happy Thanksgiving, and I hope everyone is safe, sound, well-fed, and giving thanks for all their blessings!
Say, here’s a Fun Thanksgiving Fact (unless you’re a turkey):
According to the National Turkey Federation, approximately
…52 million turkeys are eaten on Thanksgiving Day,
…22 million at Christmas, and
…19 million on Easter Sunday,
for a total of about 93 million gobblers being gobbled on those three days alone.
In keeping with a Presidential Thanksgiving tradition started by Republican President Abraham Lincoln and practiced by successive US Presidents, Joe Biden* pardoned two turkeys from joining their millions of unlucky brethren: They were named “Chocolate” and “Chip”, after Jokin’ Joe’s favorite ice cream flavor, Chocolate Chip.
But, did you know that lucky pair of birds was selected from a short list of other pairs considered for pardon? Unfortunately, for one reason or another, Joe Biden decided each of those other pairs would become dinner…then sandwiches…then soup…and finally (perhaps) dog treats.
See if you can guess why:
| Pairs of Turkeys Biden Didn’t Pardon | ||
| Oil | & | Gas |
| Graft | & | Corruption |
| Mumble | & | Stumble |
| China | & | Ukraine |
| Dog Face | & | Pony Soldier |
| Shower | & | Daughter |
| You Know | & | The Thing |
| And, the two “turkeys” I hope aren’t pardoned in 2024? | ||
| Biden | & | Harris |
Thanks for Reading! (and again, Happy Thanksgiving!)
Halloween – a holiday to commemorate, ward off, or enable the dead (or, actually cause death depending on the scariness of the trick or over consumption of treats) – was almost a month ago, and it suddenly dawned on me my TV Tuner may have been HAUNTED!
During October one of the over-the-air TV stations I regularly watch – NBCUniversal’s Cozi TV – repeatedly asked viewers to re-scan the airwaves for free TV stations. After I rescanned my tuner became the apparent victim of a Halloween “Trick”:
My TV’s Programming Guide started combining shows in hilarious combinations.
