THINGS SEEM TO BE HEATING UP

GLOBAL WARMING!!!

Before we accept any of the changes to our way of life that the “global warming enthusiasts” are trying to foist on us under the guise of SCIENCE, I think it would be a sensible thing to consider an alternative called WEATHER CHANGE.

Understanding weather change is simple…over time, our planet is getting warmer. A lot of it has to do with the sun (our little furnace in the sky). It is not a measured change that is predictable, except that recorded data on weather shows that there is a trend toward the planet getting warmer over time. Scientists even predict that at some point (probably gazillions of years from now) the planet will burn up.

The above information is readily available and has been for a long time. Schools and pundits choose to ignore these facts in order to push a man-made cause for the planet getting warmer. It has become a political plaything that has attracted trillions of dollars from those who must know better.

So where does that leave us? Do we rush to get totally electric? If we do,
I have one important question. By what method do we produce the enormous supply of electricity that will be required? Do we cover our treasured landscapes with solar panels and wind turbines? Can you imagine looking down at the Grand Canyon and seeing nothing but square miles of solar panels? The point here is to suggest that we stop the rush to be fossil fuel free and be careful not to burn our bridges behind us. We have already lost our energy independence.

If you don’t believe that what is happening weather-wise is natural and uncontrollable, read “The Grapes of Wrath” or the recent bestseller “The Four Winds” by Kristin Hannah.

IT’S TIME TO WAKE UP AMERICA!!! Stop the snowball mindset that is going on right now and return to truth and sanity.

Well, that’s it for now,

IT’S NOT THE LATEST DANCE

h _ _ _ ! Another Variant?

I just read that a new variant of the original Corona Virus is now in 44 states.

This one, Lambda (which sounds more like a South American dance than a killer virus) is said to be “Vaccine Resistant”. Now isn’t that just special?

I’m waiting until the WH of Dr. Fauci decide to make it Public Enemy number one. Maybe for this one we will have to gather at special locations to be “hosed down”. Wouldn’t surprise me at all.

Keep your eyes and ears open. As the great Yankee Catcher Yogi Berra often said, “It ain’t over ’till it’s over”

Be safe, Ken (Thew Wordspinner)

SOMETHING IS DEFINATELY DIFFERENT

SOMETHING IS DEFINITELY DIFFERENT

I took some time this morning to reflect on what life is like now
vs. what it was like when the pandemic began.

If you want to experience a real eye-opening you may want to try this for yourself.

For starters, once again we are required to wear a mask at many businesses Just the concept of having to mask-up kind of “sticks in your craw”. Bad enough when the state says you have to, but when a business that relies on your patronage tells you what to do, just doesn’t ring true.

Then there was the social distancing thing. It should be called unsocial distancing.

Bathroom tissue (toilet paper) and other commodity shortages is another thorn
in our sides. It’s really hard to understand how so many large corporations were
caught so flat-footed. All the efficiencies of “just in time” distribution were wiped
out by hoarding and profiteering.

All the restrictions caused massive unemployment; from which we have yet to recover.
Because the government stepped in to pay increased unemployment benefits, it
became more advantages for some not to look for work. (How far down have we traveled?)This
still hasn’t been resolved, so we see a lot of help wanted signs and read occasionally about businesses folding because no one wants to come to work. (Never thought I would see that)

On the personal side, we have experienced the stress of being forced to participate
in remote interaction. Even the family doctor replaced office visits with appointments by smart phone or regular phone. (Good grief). For along spell we were exposed to nightly heartbreaking segments on TV news showing elderly patients in nursing homes with the only chance to visit family limited to the touching of hands on a window glass.

When restrictions were lifted, those who had been pent up for many months
reverted to amassing in groups without masks or social distancing which periodically
caused spikes in the virus. Now it looks as if we are going to have a round two with this pandemic.

Children seem to be the most disenfranchised. Politics and power grabbing have caused them to loose at least a year of schooling, playing with friends and confused about what was going on around them.

Where does this all leave us? That’s a good question. We could never have imagined
these situations happening; especially all of them at once. But, they did, and for the
most part we came through with only a few scars.

It seems that the Delta virus is more serious than has been reported.In addition many who have received two vaccine shots are still getting the virus. The one shot J & J vaccine may not be as
effective as reported.

Kind of makes you wonder. I’d like to put a positive spin on all this, but it’s probably
best to err on the side of caution. The experiences of the past year have made us stronger.
I think we will be called upon to use that strength, so don’t go doing anything that you may
land up regretting.

Trust in God, that if we have to go through another wave of this pandemic, we will be
strong enough to weather it.

That’s all for now.

THE MAKING OF A NOVEL

I’d like to tell you some things about the writing of the novel “Tenderly Beats the Lonely Heart” by K. J. Janssen.
I was prompted to write “Tenderly” as the result of several articles that I read in my local paper about women who had been successful in their search for a child that they gave up for adoption at birth. Several other stories, one about a concert stage collapse and another about Traumatic Brain Injuries (TBI) rounded out my initial plot outline and the journey for my heroine began.
“Tenderly Beats the Lonely Heart” is classified genre-wise as Women’s Fiction, however Miriam Walton’s journey is fraught with such turmoil and tragedy that the novel became in every sense of the word an “adult” read.
Most will enjoy the mixture of pathos and heartwarming episodes that make up “Tenderly”. Readers have told me that they couldn’t put the book down, that they could easily identify with the characters in the book and that they would like to see the main character, Miriam Walton continue her story in a sequel.
“Tenderly Beats the Lonely Heart”, can be found at Amazon.com as both a paperback an as a kindle book.

Another Teaser!

Here’s another teaser from “Tenderly Beats the Lonely Heart” the top selling, five star novel by K. J. Janssen:

CHAPTER 43
“Get out of my way. I’ve got to see my wife. She’s in there. Her name is Miriam Walton.”
It was Nathan Walton doing the shouting while attempting to push two orderlies aside. “My wife’s in that room and I want to see her…now!”
“Sir, you can’t go in there now. Please return to your seat until we call you.”
“You don’t understand. She’s had a concussion. I’ve been traveling a day and a half to get here. I want to see her right away. Now get out of my way, before I have to get rough.”
One of the orderlies motioned to a security guard who quickly joined the fracas. “You’re going to have to come with me, sir.” He grabbed Nathan by the arm with just enough pressure to broadcast that resisting might not be in Nathan’s best interest.
Nathan immediately turned to the man and, under the assumption that he now could reason his way out of this predicament. he repeated his message.
The guard was unmoved by Nathan’s argument. “When hospital employees give you directions, they are to be followed. We have a hospital emergency on our hands and we won’t tolerate any unruly behavior on the floor. Is that clear?”
All the fire went out of Nathan and he meekly replied, “That’s clear.”
The guard pointed to the waiting area. “Now you go on over there, sit down and be quiet until they come for you. If I hear a peep out of you, I’ll turn you over to the Sheriff’s Department and charge you with disturbing the peace and resisting arrest. Got that?”
A docile Nathan answered, “Yes Sir. I understand.”
There you have it. “Tenderly Beats the Lonely Heart”: by K. J. Janssen is available as a paperback or ebook at Amazon.com

OUR OBLIGATION TO THE CREATOR

Each of us, as individuals, is different from all other of the 7+ billion people on earth because we are expected to accomplish something specific as part of God’s plan for mankind.

Usually we know what that plan is because nature (GOD) has favored us with a gift of a particular talent or skill. Hopefully we are utilizing that gift for the benefit of ourselves and our fellow man.

However, all to often. we are not aware of any specific direction to follow. That is when you need to turn to God and pray for guidance. If you do, be very watchful for the answer. (God moves in mysterious ways.)

I hope that this helps to explain why God put you on this earth.

LIES ABOUT FACEMASKS

LIES ABOUT FACEMASKS

Dear Friends of the Wordspinner,

You don’t wear a mask to protect others. (That’s a lie circulated by those who say it infringes on your freedom).

You wear a mask to protect YOURSELF from the virus in the air being spread by others

Japan is a country where the whole population wears masks. The death toll for the entire country is only 948 people.

In the U.S. where the right to wear or not wear is being debated the death toll is 136,615.

It doesn’t take a rocket scientist to figure out who is right.

WEAR A MASK!!!

That’s all for now.

Your friend,

Ken (The Wordspinner)

The Times They Are A Changin’

Make no mistake about it. When this is all over, few things will be the same

Just this morning i read that MLB players with multi-million dollar salaries will have to take a 77% pay cut to play a shortened season. Cars are being purchased on-line and delivered (no test drives) to your door, sans the opportunity for a slick car salesman to upgrade you with a lot of gadgets you really don’t need.

This is just the start.

What’s going to happen with schools? With personal greetings? With offices? With commuting?

Stay tuned, this has only just begun.

That’s all for today from your friend
