Here is perhaps the single most ignorant and offensive LTE I have ever read….re: the NC legislature is debating a formal apology for slavery:
Slavery’s silver lining
Has it occurred to anyone else? Where would millions of black people have been born had it not been for slavery? How far along would their culture be then? Living in tribes susceptible to disease, famine, elements, etc.
It seems to me that if generations of slaves suffered (I don’t believe they did all that much compared with the conditions they were taken out of), it turned out to be a good thing for their race.
Heh, at least the moron signed it correctly. Morning Second Nature, Andi, ask. Pockets of racism exist around here too, as the pointy-hooded ones have been threatening a march in a university town nearby. So far, nothing has materialized.
Good morning, Andi!
I need a nap.
Image; what are those called (I only know their Norwegian name)?
I sympathize on the nap — the dogs took turns getting me up during the night so it wasn’t very restful.
It’s called a bloodroot.
Thanks, very dramatic name.
We call it hvitveis (hvit=white) – I guess related to Edelweiss.
That’s a pretty scary name for such a delicate little flower.
How come you don’t have a dog door? You can get one with an electronic collar/sensor to keep other critters out.
It’s cold and the wind is howling but the sun is out so that’s good enough for me. There are even a few trillium blooming much to my surprise.
(Very hard to put dog doors in glass doors)
No flowers here yet.
More snow for the week.
Ugh.
Hey all.
Oh yuck….hold out hope for Thursday I guess.
there’s a bright orange ball … which I think I recall is the sun … it’s been so long since I’ve seen it though … 😉

Greetings from the flood lands!
It’s really pouring down here as well.
We’ll remain inside today, I think.
Anyone hear how RF69 and Family Man are doing after the storms in their areas?
rf was here yesterday w/ the sat cafes … haven’t heard from FM in a few days.
alabama got swamped – wonder if he’s without power.
