I thought If they strike this they in essence invalidate chevron and thus all agency regulations
This would be crazy
This in essence steve bannon's dream goal,
Gop line is striking down is good, because conservatism means reagan's ideal goal of less government
This would mean no securities and exchange regulation, insider trading becomes a norm, fActories no longer have to follow regulations,
Koch has been funding this eden for a while
This is what they paid mitch for
They either have to narrow chevron and make a new rule
Or throw chevron in the trash
Listen to joyce vance when she comments
This is what she is talking About
This gives the next gop ability to sell all public lands for oil. Mow down every natural habitat as they get rid of epa, sell off all parks
This is a horror

I, too have lost cousins, not from Covid but illnesses. My father's sister is still around and in her upper 80's. I am worried about the situation over there. That poor country has gone through so much over the centuries.
I do hope I get to go to Mardi Gras. I have never been, but it does sure look interesting. It would be good to get away and do something different.
When I am next in CT. I will get some pics of chickens. My friend now has 8. She got chicks in the Fall and then introduced them to the older flock and they are doing well. The older hens are laying again. They molted in the winter (as you know). The young ones won't probably lay until Spring. The kids are enjoying them, especially - the middle one. He has a soft spot for animals-has always been interested in them since he was a baby. It will be interesting to see if he pursues
that in a career.

lost two cousins in Ukrayina this year. They were in their seventies, but still. Very dear very talented people. We are pretty close with our family over there, and now with the once again looming military issues, we have got that on our list of things to agonize and pray over.
I got a Christmas card from them - would you believe- this weekend. That is how difficult it is with mail anymore.
Fortunately some of them are able to connect with us thru Facebook and emails. But not all. And geez writing in Ukrainian gets harder every year. There is not a solitary person to practice speaking, in my part of Alabama. Believe me, i have looked.
In the meantime, I read a really good book some thirty years ago by Richard Powers. For some reason, i thought about him and looked him up to see if he had written anything else. Turns out he has been prolific and his most recent showed up on Oprah’s book club. “Bewilderment”. I it centers around a husband who lost his wife, a bird enthusiast. They have a son called Robin, named for the obvious reason. The bird theme and the loss theme are resonating with me.
Other than that, it looks as if I may well be going to Mardi Gras this year. O I keep trying to get out to visit her but they cancelled mardi gras and jazz fest last year. So i am going to take a shot while omicron seems to be in a lull.
Mardi Gras is March 1 so I will be in NoLa o. . The legendary debauchery is exaggerated. If I were to compare it to anything, it is most like the Mummers. Lots of families picnicking on traffic islands watching the parades. I will be on the parade route, so we will not even have to worry about parking.

I start to cry. I want to cry.
It comes in waves. THe waves roll deep and from deep the deep within me and I hold her and she holds me tighter and i let her and I let it and I let this and I have not felt this way this vulnerability or allowed myself to feel this way this vulnerability since I was ten years old and I don't know why I haven't and I don't know why I am now and I only know that I am and that it is scary terrifying frightening worse and better than anything I've ever felt crying in her arms just crying in her ams just crying.==― James Frey
