Digging through a cubby-hole of sorts, thinking more a long of she ran outta room in the canning room, so this would like an overflow,only moved one gun pouch while sayin wth… more frigging gars
3 boxes high stacked. Stood up, took a drink of the Vernors, I see the message left.
What’s this;
The Longshoremen are planning a strike, shutting down the ports
translation:
what ya gonna eat now, I have other things to do besides partaking in food riots Not really a down an dirty version of da Cudighi (Could-a-key), but it tastes really frigging good, got the recipe from Ole Pete years ago. Scout out the meat counter, as in worm out the information from the butcher when port is going on sale, High speed beef also works very well with added pork.
6pounds of the pork butt
One clove
2 Tbl of the red pepper flakes
4Tbl of the Fennel seed only use
3 Tbl of the salt
not that G’damn table, that stuff will killya mix well, cover and sit in the fridge overnight
then patty up the mixture. Freezes well.
Pizza sauce belongs on pizza
Spaghetti sauce belongs with the meatballs and Spaghetti noodles
MarinaraSauce ONLY on the da cudighi, if you don’t you’ll earned a visit from the Godfather. veggies, whatever floats your boat
There’s only one place that has da Cudighi as a normal everyday food, St. Louis, if you wanna go all fancy and slave over a hot stove/grill, there’s a sweet version of da Cudighi. There’s really no reason to wonder where this guy got the recipe is there, I didn’t think so.
Sittin with a coffee and the dog while looking at peppers, ok and so what, I don’t have the best lookin grass… I don’t eat grass so there’s that.
Fresh peppers = I’m saving the planet from climate change because I shop locally and/or barter. Lookin around the place, easy to see America is sick, sick in many ways, speaking about her health. Do you realize America is an importer of food, this here is a good example why America is sick. Meijer foods and Korger won’t even pick-up the G’damn phone to talk with American farmers to get their products on the shelf for the people. What’s the farmers to do, well… give stuff away before it becomes a liability, storage and refrigeration cost money, big money.
Patriot foods is doing just that, giving away fresh homegrown berries:
Ever notice how a grocery store is laid out: Meat,Dairy, Grains and veggies are on the outter walls, everything in the middle is fake food, even still when cruising the outter walls you still have to be mindful of the labels. Did you Puru is major exporter of blueberries to America, this state has blueberries coming out of it’s ears and bear’s behind, bears love berries, me not so much, there’s reason I don’t pick berries anymore, I’ll tell ya about it sometime. Found a pamphlet of sorts dealing with prices, my first was, no… I have long memory, I don’t remember these prices:
I’d betcha a nickel, if you didn’t the 9 cents for the bread, you didn’t the bread or eggs for 12 cents.
New treatment developed in Israel eliminates rectal cancer in 65% of patients
Israeli hospital develops new treatment for rectal cancer, effectively eliminating the cancer in nearly two-thirds of patients and removing need for surgery in most others.
By World Israel News Staff September 9, 2024
The Davidoff Comprehensive Cancer Center, Israel’s only cancer hospital, recently conducted a study showing that a new treatment developed by the center’s researchers helped to eliminate rectal cancer in 65 percent of patients and prevented the need for surgery in most of them.
Rectal cancer makes up about 25 percent of colon cancer cases and is usually discovered when it is in a locally advanced state therefore requiring multidisciplinary treatment.
In a case of rectal cancer which has not metastasized, the treatment usually includes surgery.
However, surgery to remove rectal tumors often result in severe damage to the patient’s quality of life and sometimes, surgeons need to resect the anus itself. Therefore, avoiding such surgeries is important for many patients.
A new study led by Professor Baruch Brenner, director of the Oncology Department and the Gastrointestinal Oncology Unit at the Davidoff Comprehensive Cancer Center at Beilinson Hospital, found that a combination of immunotherapy and the most advanced form of pre-operative chemo-radiation therapy may significantly increase the chances of curing the disease and avoiding surgery.
Preliminary results from the study found that in 65 percent of the patients the rectal tumors disappeared following the new therapeutic method and many of them did not need to undergo surgery.
As a result of the success of the study, it will now be extended to a multi-center study which will be conducted in several hospitals in Israel and Germany, led by Prof. Brenner and his team.
“This research is very promising and can change how rectal cancer is treated globally,” said Prof. Brenner.
“The results indicate the potential of this new therapeutic approach to help get rid of the tumor in a non-surgical way which increases the patient’s quality of life once in remission.”
“Although we are still in the research stages, evidence from this study indicates that combining immunotherapy in the preoperative treatment can indeed improve the chance of the tumor disappearing.”
The results were shared at the European Society of Medical Oncology Gastrointestinal (ESMO GI) conference recently held in Munich, Germany.
Don’t know if you know so I’ll tellya, there’s a harvest moon soon, always time to see it rise over the lake, also known as a strawberry moon
How did it get this far, for someone like tampon timmy picked for vp of this country, I filed it under:
the slippery slope
This here is a cousin of mine
Wanna know what her biggest problem was, well… finding a husband, when everyone you know is a cousin, husband shopping can be difficult. She ended going down into cheeseland, (different tribe), found a husband. You see her, you’ll see the 3 stooges, don’t do anything stupid near my cousin, fair warning.
She buys fresh Dill from my garden lady who happens to be another Man’s wifey which I just don’t care. I swear that Woman could plant a Dorito chip come harvest time, she’d have TOCO truck full TACO shells. Her garden surrounded with Concord grapes; people make wine around here.
Ask any decent self respecting medical type they’ll tell ya, many problems people have, they start in the gut. I’m no doc, I do know stuff so this what ya do, start small like with jalapeño heat, work yourself up to the Portugal hot pepper
On no time at all, the Habanero will just about cure any gut problems you have
Gardening is work, lots of work, nothing free, 5 pounds of smoke bacon was deal :).
Signs are everywhere
I heard it gets cold in Ohio, maybe I’ll see stories of Haitians freezing to death.
ohh yeah, keep a smile on your face as in this example from a Brother of another Mother
Took a while for the dog to like King Oscar, now I cannot open a can without him with the of ” bossman, you some of those mine” no manners that dog, sardines on crackers served, he prefers separated. Fine
Been a year since she was called home, let’s not be sad, instead a little insight. She’s 95 here and lil sis & I flipped a coin, THANK GOD I LOST THAT coin toss, I did ask if she liked Margaritas, which she said, what’s wrong with you, of course I do, well that’s good ma, she stopped cutting the pizza, her fav birthday food, opened the gift from lil sis. Was about then a question came to mind which I’ll get to soon enough
She forgot all about the pizza, held up her gift, opened it and went to town
My lil sis unlike me who a certain nun slammed the key cover down on hands while saying you’re HOPLESS!, the fucking hurt. Lil sis wasn’t famous or anything, she could play the piano very well, ma like Billy Joel so she play some of his music. Ohh yea about that question, just how bad was ma, leaving us at 100 years, just how bad was she
I just don’t wanna know such stuff.
This week in health seems appropriate for my mental health
Found: a brain-wiring pattern linked to depression
The disease has a consistent mark in the brain even when symptoms are absent.
04 September 2024 from Nature.com

The symptoms of depression might come and go, but new evidence suggests that the pattern of brain wiring behind it remains the same for life. The largest imaging study1 of its kind has found that a certain brain network involved in directing attention to stimuli is nearly twice as big in people with depression as it is in the rest of the population — and that it remains that way when a person no longer feels depressed.
The results are a step towards a biological marker for depression, which is at present diagnosed mainly using questionnaires. But the authors say their finding should be validated in more populations before it is used clinically. The study was published today in Nature.
Those individual differences are what neuroscientist Charles Lynch and psychiatrist Conor Liston, both at Weill Cornell Medicine in New York City, and their colleagues set out to investigate, hoping to find networks that correlate with depression. But every fMRI scan is just a snapshot of a brain, which limits the technique’s usefulness for studying a dynamic disorder such as depression, Liston says.
So the team turned to existing data sets containing fMRI images of people who had been repeatedly scanned over time: 135 people with major depressive disorder, which causes severe and long-lasting symptoms; and 37 healthy participants. In almost every person with depression, they found, a brain circuit known as the salience network was almost twice as large as it was in controls. The salience network is itself a connector between other brain circuits. It is involved in switching the brain between internal awareness and working memory, and it helps the brain to decide which environmental stimuli and internal emotions it should pay attention to.
At first, the researchers thought the salience network might expand when a person was depressed. So they used fMRI to scan the brains of several other people with depression nearly every week for up to 18 months and assessed how the person was feeling each time. The salience network of each individual was about the same size every time, whether the person was feeling depressed or not. What did change was the amount of activity between brain regions, which decreased when the person was actively depressed. The researchers could even use network activity to predict whether a person would have a depressive episode the following week.
Early warning sign
The results led the scientists to suspect that a larger network puts people at increased risk of depression, rather than being a simple biomarker for it.
To test this, the team turned to the ABCD Study, which aims to track brain development in nearly 12,000 children between the ages of 9 and young adulthood. They identified 57 children who did not have depression before the age of 13 but who developed the disorder as adolescents. At ages at young as nine years, these children already had expanded salience networks compared with their peers. “It’s moving one step closer to cause and effect,” Liston says.
The researchers are unsure what causes the expansion of the network, but they have a few ideas. Large salience networks could be a genetic trait, given that depression is partly heritable. Alternatively, Lynch says, the network might be overused during a depressive episode — if a person was ruminating on negative stimuli, for instance — and grow in response.
Potential benefits
Diego Pizzagalli, a depression researcher at McLean Hospital in Belmont, Massachusetts, is impressed with the consistency of the findings across databases. If the work is replicated, Pizzagalli says, the size of a child’s salience network could one day be used to identify whether they are at risk of depression, and to intervene through therapy to reduce the likelihood of the disease.
Cognitive neuroscientist Caterina Gratton at the University of Illinois Urbana–Champaign is also impressed with the study, and particularly that it tracked individuals over time instead of looking at large numbers of people. “Rather than reading a few pages of many books, we’re reading whole chapters,” she says.
Lynch says that the team is now investigating whether the expanded network correlates with other mental illnesses that share some symptoms with depression, such as bipolar disorder and obsessive compulsive disorder. “It would be very surprising if this [network expansion] were specific to depression, given how heterogeneous depression is,” he says.
One of these days, I’m gonna on here all G’damn day, found a 48 cup coffee percolator in the basement, the kind you use at a church function, in this house we perked!, never drip, I still perk. Today is not that day to sit here all G’damn day. Did you know, you need a permit to build a deck, so they can TAX you later, butt! no permit/fee/TAX to park a boat. There will come day, such people who think in those terms, will be nothing but spooky stories told around a campfire. Until then,

such stinking thinking as in this example
The Toilet, there’s a little story behind it
Grampa, mom’s side, he was late 80/90’s down in the Grand rapids VA home, they were giving him a hard time about having beer in there, so Grampa packed up his suitcase, took a taxi to the Greyhound, headed North… ma! grampa is at the backdoor!, so it was decided right then he is staying here, dad built a little bathroom in the ole coal room. He had Ernie Howell on a floor radio, (he hated the Red Sox). sit there with a PBR in a rocker. fridge, bed and medical stuff. Took the VA almost two weeks to find him, was some flak about him stayin, Grampa sitting at the kitchen table not sayin anything, just sipping a beer eyefucking the VA people, there were 2 of them. We found Grampa in his rocker; he left us at 103 of age. Still have rocker, when I sit here all G’damn day, you’ll know then, I’m in the rocker.
It’s a question I had asked myself sitting with a coffee seeing the sunrise, a geezer is someone who isn’t young or dead, just… somewhere in between, sips coffee.
W.C. Fields, he practiced being a geezer for years. He not only spoke sarcasm, he taught the class sarcasm 101. One of his students was Rodney Dangerfield,
Took the ratdog shopping, who knew he was a chick-magnet, until I tried giving him away, they were having none that. Ever spot something and like whammo a bet comes to mind, it was like that in toilet isle, seeing the basket of golf balls, I betcha ole kammalaaaa with a garden hose would win that contest, if you understand my meaning. 🙂 Some people turned the corner to come in the same isle, until they seen and heard me chuckling at a toilet in a box, they decided to try another isle. Good!, more elbow room know what I mean, try shopping when it’s butthole to bellybutton is no fun. Think the Waltzing TAMPONTIMMY knows enough not to flush his manpons, I doubt it.
Side note: I know some chemistry you may find useful during Black Friday, you will not only clear the isle the store will empty G’damnit. remind me sometime, I’ll tell yeah. Tried and true, me & Dan-knee did it! Was in a radio shack, should work in any store.
I know ya’ll think I’m hard on that dog, callin him fat and lazy, what else would you call this, to fat and lazy to eat a piece of jerky inches from his face.
Same ole meaty meat Bossman!
Ok ok, he got no teeth, I cut it up, he woofed it down, then fell asleep. Now excuse, I have wax ring to deal with. Wax rings, stuff not taught at Ivy league indoctrination centers.
If you never had to stir Shedd’s, you’re showing your age right there, that stuff was a workout in can, also so much better for you. Do I agree with Bobby on everything, of course not, those things can be worked out later. Some insight to what the FDA is about:
Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. on restoring American food quality:
Kennedy on restoring American food quality: “Thomas Jefferson said that American democracy is rooted in tens of thousands of independent freeholds, each owned by a small family farmer with a stake in our system, both our political system and our economic system. For democracy to survive, we had to keep the landscapes in the control of small farmers.” “The USDA was created to ensure a wholesome food supply. Unfortunately, the USDA has been captured by big agricultural interests.” “They’re doing the opposite of what’s supposed to be done; they’re making war on the small farmer and on public health.” “You have to eat eight carrots today to get the same nutritional value that one carrot would give you a generation ago. And that carrot is loaded with chemicals: aldrin, neonicotinoid pesticides, glyphosate, and an entire universe of terrible chemicals, none of which have been adequately tested for safety.”

People even use cheese cloth anymore, or know what the many uses of it, I do. There’s reason I squeezed out the jalapeno juice ever buy store bought bologna, after a few days it’s slimy, my bologna is Never slimy. Smoking meats could be viewed as an art, much science and math are involved, safety starts with cleanliness.
Fresh local pork and beef, jalapeno from my garden Lady, ok ok,
