Windows to Russia

Svetochka sent me a link. She keeps me informed!

Big graph at top of info is interactive and the links say: Got sick (red), Conditionally infected (yellow), Recovered (blue), Died (black)…

Next with the people graph: Children (red), 18 to 64 years old (green), Over 65 (blue)….green is winning so far…

Next graph is areas: Ryazan District (Where I am at. The worst hit so far.), Erminsky District, Kasimov, Klepikovsky District, Miloslavsky District, Pronsky District, Rybnovsky District, Sapozhkovsky District, Sasovo, Skopin, Spassky District, Chuchkovsky District, Shilovsky District…

Then farther break down nearest to the Tiny Russian Village: Sarai area — 15, 2 in Sarai (Big Village), 2 in Sysoi (Across the river and walking distance.)…

So therefore, the “King Corona” is within walking distance of our Tiny Russian Village. Just a hop and skip across the Para River (About a 5 kilometer walk.) that I take images of all the time…

I really dislike, “King Corona”…

So therefore, as I tell Svetochka in Moscow!

It is time to be even more careful and stay away from people…

King Corona is like cockroaches: Where you have one, you have hundreds hidden…

It is Jr. and Big Bubba at it again…

Israel and USA

It sure takes a special type of country to attack an innocent country and their friends within that country at their behest. Countries that are already suffering under illegal and immoral sanctions put on them by your best Big Bubba friend. Why are hardly anyone protesting these atrocities? To cowardly to even speak up? Therefore, I want to protest publicly, right here on this well established blog, so my hands don`t get soaked in the blood of innocent people by the collective guilt attached to this deafening cricket type of silence, per media and individual countries and people…

Syria accused Israel of carrying out airstrikes on a military airfield near Damascus just before dawn on Monday, saying that its air defense units had “confronted the Israeli aggression. ”Though the Israel Defense Forces did not comment on the allegation, the attack came a day after Defense Minister Naftali Bennett hinted that the military was poised to take action in Syria. “Keep your ears open. We’ve gone from a policy of blocking [Iran] to pushing it out,” Bennett told the 103FM radio station on Sunday. It was the third attack on Iranian targets in Syria attributed to Israel in the past 10 days.

Israel does not even try to hide it anymore!

This is an act of war and if the USA was not bullying and crushing so many countries and destroying these countries through sanctions and illegal activities. Israel would not get away with it, just like they would never have had “The Bomb” except Big Bubba gave it to them…

Israel has again, just like the USA for many years now, continually instigate and desire a response that which they will utilize illegally against said country…

When countries bully other countries they put themselves in the position that they never can stop the bullying. For they live in fear of retaliation that they themselves instigated in the first place and Israel has been an instigation from the very start, when it was illegally instated as a state…

It is simply an act of war, just like if you walked up to someone and out of the blue punched them in the nose….but they will not punch you back because your ten foot tall friend is standing laughing at them, behind you with a baseball bat…

Jr. and Bubba at it again…

Not long ago I posted what to do with lots of bananas that are getting black and extra ripe!

Make a banana treat recipe, when you got too many bananas…

I basically posted this recipe of mine for my Sweetpea Svetochka and to help her get rid of too many bananas. She had over zealously gathered too many bananas in the coronavirus times…

I am so proud of my little sweetpea and she made herself a wonderful treat…

Who knew that my recipes were any good at all?

Sveta said she added a touch of cinnamon to it and she has enjoyed her creation!

Decided yesterday to make the front stairs safe. I am not much of a carpenter, but I do what I do what I can….they are solid and very strong ad will last for years. The old ones were getting dangerous and it was a need to be done, not want to be done…

The barn supporting is done and now all the doors work like they should and I have increased support inside and out. I have plans to repair and paint the roof and find some steel corner braces. Then I will be officially done…

I may relax this weekend….kinda tired this morning and I do not even remember falling asleep last night. Laid my head down on the pillow and ZZZZZZZZZZ…

Today: I will walk my morning walk, if the weather holds, I will finish tilling the potato garden and I have to replace a blown short piece of heater hose on Sammy the Volga….and oh yes, I have to replace a circuit breaker this morning before I use the electric tiller…

And you wonder why I get up at 2 to 3 a.m. every morning?

Never dull in the Tiny Russian Village…

Get moving people and make something out of the situation you have been given and stop blaming others for the misgivings in life…

People cannot see a virus…

People cannot accept what they cannot see…

People desire to be skeptical about what they cannot see…

People dislike being told what to do…

People are basically simple-minded…

Then someone you know, either family, friend and or a very important person in your life, dies from King Coronavirus…

Skepticism and disbelief turns to sorrow and fear…

For at that point, whether you can see King Corona or not, you realize that he is really out there and waiting for you. That person you had just die in your life from the King Corona should have lived many more years. Even with diabetes and or what ever issues they have. Their productivity to life in general is gone….and you the proverbial student within their life may have been the one to kill them…

Eg….As in a case that I just found out about: A very important Russian cancer “Doctor of Surgery” at mid sixties in age, while helping on the front line in fighting this King Corona, died from the King…

The King Corona does not care and he will cut your life short, even while most around you are all okay and carrying him from new host to new host. If you have a weakness for him to exploit, he will take you from earth and in a very bad way…

That my friend is why I am careful around everyone and wear my mask when I go to the Big Village and wash my hands a bunch and try to stay as self-isolated as I can, so that I can still be productive in life and hopefully one day, when something comes along and changes the situation, I can get back to a semblance of normality…

I know more than a few who have died of King Corona and many are very important people and those people, even though they were old and had other health issues, they were still a very productive part of the future and advancement of mankind…

King Coronavirus does not give a damn whether you believe in him or not….nor whether you believe this is a hoax or not…

PS: I surmise and consider that if I die at 70 from a virus that we could keep from getting and I would have lived to 80 otherwise. I consider those ten years a good thing to have lived and experienced life. – I myself personally could have died twenty + years ago from heart issues, and or from a brain tumor. Yet I have had twenty good years more in life and I would like a few more, please!

To put in more crass and simple terms: There are times it just ain’t worth trying to be a badass with a foe who does not give a damn!

I just noticed at the top of the image (Black fuzzy smudge.). That is one of our eagles looking at the lake below him. Probably looking for dinner?

Sometimes as I go about my business and find myself working to repair things all around the homes. I stop long enough to take in what is around me…

Kinda like stopping and smell the coffee…

Yesterday, I felt a shift in the weather and looked up as I was finishing a project and the sun was bright, but you could feel something coming. A storm a brewing…i

Yesterday was cold and brisk. The wind was relentless all day…

I finished the barn, now today I have to clean my mess up. I also had to track down a electrical issue. The main breaker blew and would not reset. I spent two hours tracing each circuit and finally found the issue, an old wall socket had fried out. The house looked like world war three, as I found that somewhere in the wire to the socket was now a dead short. Thus, I pulled that circuit in complete and rewired the line. New plugin and new wire and I was back in business…

Never dull and never bored in the Tiny Russian Village…

Today I have to go to the Big Village, for I need to buy a main breaker set….seems that the dead short has weakened one breaker ad now I have a buzz sound under load. Not worth playing with, just get new breakers and replace them….that should solve that…

By the way, within 15 minutes of that image above….it started to snow and sleet…

I just love the Tiny Russian Village…

Kinda proud of Russia. They got her done and just in time…

Moscow’s brand-new infectious diseases hospital has admitted its first patients, despite construction having begun in mid-March. It comes as Russia recorded over 5,600 Covid-19 cases in a day, with the peak still approaching.The 800-bed facility’s completion is a much-needed antidote to the country’s ever-worsening coronavirus crisis. As of Tuesday afternoon, Russia has 52,763 confirmed cases of Covid-19, and more than half of infections are in Moscow and the Moscow Region. With 5,642 cases nationwide confirmed in the last 24 hours, the opening of the hospital could not have been more timely – and, according to data mentioned by President Vladimir Putin on Monday, the worst is still to come.The new hospital is capable of conducting more than 10,000 tests a day and includes a 1,300-capacity hostel to accommodate staff, according to Moscow’s government website.

Not as fast as China did it, but a much needed hospital and it has been built for permanency, unlike the Chinese ones that have been dismantled already. This hospital will stay put…

The deer are out and about. Smaller deer than what I am use to in the US when I hunted a bunch…

Swallows are all finally showing up and that means mosquitoes are coming soon…

Eagles everywhere and they do a good job at self-isolation. Yet really they kinda dislike everything in the first place. Except their sweety…

Oh the barn!

If the weather stays somewhat better, I will try to finish the barn today. I am installing diagonal beams everywhere and when I can shop in the Big Village decently, I will get some diagonal cross bars to drive into place on all corners, front to back and side to side….maybe I will have to have them made?

Couple of the steel beams are as heavy as I am and they were not much fun to get in place.When I am done all braces on the front of the barn will be gone and installed with even more braces to the inside of the barn…

The middle section of the barn is a chicken coop and is still set up for them. That brings to mind a future project and maybe we need chickens! Maybe?

If all you knew about this country came from the likes of the Washington Post and the Guardian, you’d be forgiven for thinking Russian streets were teeming with balalaika-playing bears, AK-47-wielding communists, and KGB officers Cossack-dancing in the snow. By now, you’d have thought such caricatures would have gotten old, yet despite the current trend towards wokeness, lazy and hackneyed stereotypes are back in fashion.

PS: But the article is true…

Joke of the year so far!

Trump said during a press briefing on the coronavirus pandemic last Saturday that “I received a nice note from him recently. It was a nice note. I think we’re doing fine.”

But: North Korea’s Foreign Ministry said there is/was no letter addressed to Trump “recently” by “The Supreme Leader,” in a reference to the benevolent Kim Jong Un…

But, then I found out through very very very good anonymous US government sources that Trump did get a nicely handwritten note from Kim Jong Un:

It reads as quoted below…

“37OH ssV – O773H”

Trump couldn’t make any sense of it and sent it to the FBI…
The FBI couldn’t decode it and sent it to the NSA…
The NSA gave up and asked the MSS (Ministry of State Security, which is located in China by the way) for help…

Then NSA got a call from the MSS (Ministry of State Security, which is located in China by the way):

“Tell your president he’s holding the note upside down!”
