It’s Sunday evening. Time is 10:15 p.m. I am working on coordinating a visit tomorrow with my babies. Need to figure out how to pick up my son and his three-year-old sister. She needs to nap at 12:30-ish. We have to be at school with my boy at 2:30 p.m. If I don’t take her with us, she gets her feelings hurt, and throws a fit.

In Australia, New South Wales, the government plans to take 24,000 children, separate them from their parents, put them in a stadium, and forcibly inject them with experimental products known as C-19 vaccines.

More on the virus and vaccines

Body
It has been common knowledge for years that all major developing countries have possessed the ability to conduct germ warfare. The Wuhan crisis is no exception. Was a virus created in the lab and deliberately leaked into the local wet markets for experimentation on the people of Wuhan? This is totally consistent with China’s poor record on civil rights, and its complete lack of concern for all of the Chinese people. The virus created in Wuhan is by no means a poor reflection on all Asians, especially Asian-Americans. It is simply a reaffirmation of the Communist Chinese government’s unconscionable disdain for human life. They are the ones to blame. Now we, the American people, will soon be required by our government to get the vaccine without being told what are the short/long term side effects. This is inherently a violation of our civil rights since the vaccine has never been approved by the Food and Drug Administration. The one benefactor from the spread of the virus is the environment. Consider how working from home reduces the amount of carbon emissions caused by the automobile. Why aren’t the Biden Administration and various environmental groups encouraging this?

Thank you from Big Bend Ranch Rodeo!

Body
Full house crowds were treated to lots of good cowboy action last weekend at this year’s Big Bend Ranch Rodeo, and crowds welcomed a rain each afternoon to help cool off. The Big Bend Ranch Rodeo is grateful for the support we have received the last 21 years from countless individuals and businesses in Alpine and beyond.

COVID-19 therapeutics

Body
Monoclonal anti-bodies, hydroxychloroquine, ivermectin, fenofibrate, and molnupiravir. Monoclonal anti-bodies were used to treat President Trump for COVID-19, and its use has been requested by Governor De-Santis to help control infections in Florida.

Voter ID and borders

Body
Voter ID - Students must bring social security information, birth certificate, and immunization records before they can be registered. Why should voters not have to do the same. We should have a national voter ID card as Mexico does. This would eliminate vote by mail and stuffing ballot boxes. This country has gone very crazy.

A big thank you

Body
I would like to thank everyone who came out and participated and helped with donations for the fundraiser this past weekend. I would like to give a even bigger thank you to Alex and Chayo Gonzales for putting this together, Deeann Lujan for working the food stand, Camelo and family for the bounce houses, and Diane and her family for the items that were donated towards the raffle! Thank you to Eric from Oasis Tire for donating all the briskets, and Adam Llanez for cooking them.

Thank you

I would like to thank all of the great drivers of Alpine for running the stop signs at the intersection at West Del Rio and Middle School Road. There are large numbers of drivers who have no respect or courtesy for people who live next to this intersection. There are young children who live on the south side of this intersection. Alpine drivers have gotten worse since near the end of July.
