An Interesting Day

Today I really got caught up in the story about the two illegally bred half wolf dogs that were dumped in Connecticut.

I was very surprised when they were sent to a wolf sanctuary here in New Jersey.  It turns out that we have not one, but two wolf sanctuaries.  (I really sound like the Chamber of Commerce for New Jersey lately, but I am surprised that such small, highly populated and industrialized state has so many very cool things).

Pursuing further, I went to the website of one of them Howling Woods Farm  in Jackson, New Jersey.  They have some animals for adoption–so I read their contract agreement.  It is wonderful as far as the care the adopter must promise to provide.

Among the provisions are–a canine companion if your animal is going to be left alone for more than one hour, high fencing, an adequate amount of outdoor space–and much more–it is just great.  These people really care.  If you go to their site and read it, it’s worth a look.  I probably am not doing it justice.

It was extremely hot today 89 degrees–it will cool down for the weekend and we should be getting some much needed rain.

We don’t want our famous Pine Barrens catching fire.

God bless everybody

Why would some idiot even do this?  These animals are notoriously unpredictable and have very different requirements than a dog.  Stupidity abounds.  I did not know we had a wolf shelter/sanctuary here in New Jersey.

The News I Didn’t Write About Yesterday REPRINT

From  March 31, 2016

I suppose stuff like this is only to be expected in an age when Real Smart People with advanced degrees argue, with a straight face, that it’s rational and praiseworthy to become disabled on purpose ( http://leeduigon.com/2015/06/23/an-all-new-perversion-become-disabled-on-purpose/ ). They advance very smart-sounding–but utterly vacuous–intellectual “reasons” for having sound, healthy limbs amputated.

Even so, when I read yesterday that the National Basketball Assn. has joined the National Football League in threatening the state of North Carolina that the state will lose major sporting events unless its legislators restore the “right”–really: the right?–of a grown man to enter a girls’ bathroom with girls in it, I could not continue. That our country could have ever come to this…

Because North Carolina does not accept that a man has a “right” to use the ladies’ bathroom, the whole American ruling class is coming down on the state like a ton of bricks. New York City and state, Vermont, and San Francisco mayors and governors have banned official travel to North Carolina. Chambers of commerce, huge corporations, and other business entities have threatened to pull out of North Carolina unless this “right” is restored.

Oh, well, it’s only public rest rooms, is that the hill to die on?

The retreat of decency (not to mention sanity!) has got to stop somewhere.

I join with those readers who have cited Acts 4:29.

And now, Lord, behold their threatenings: and grant unto thy servants, that with all boldness they may speak thy word…

Big sports, big business, big politics–in the name of the most holy God, we defy you.

Here’s Dave to Start Your Day

Your day will definitely be better than his.

Holy, Holy, Holy

Some Good News

I have been in communication with Mark Rushdoony, President of Chalcedon regarding Lee’s last two books.  They will mark the end of the trilogy that finalized that section of the Bell Mountain series.

They are just about ready to publish Ozias, Prince in Peril.  It will be coming out soon.  I will let you know when as soon as I know.  The final book, Ozias Prince Enthroned marks the end of the series, and will be coming out quite a bit later, as it is still in hand-written manuscript form.

I don’t like seeing it all come to an end, but Lee was such a prolific writer, and left such a large body of work that there is a lot to enjoy.  I have read most of the books many times over and they truly hold up and are just as good when read more than once.

Aside from that, it has been a very quiet day, very hot.

Now we really could use some rain as they are talking fire danger in the woods.  I hope that doesn’t materialize because the particulate matter from the smoke is really bad for one’s health.  I remember a few years ago when they had those forest fires in Canada and our sky here in New Jersey was burnt orange for several days.  Yuck.

Now I am going to make my chili.

God bless everybody.
