Some humor!

Boy this stuff can be heavy! How about some humor?

But first, an alternative to the McGill study:

I’m honestly not sure who is right here. There are, of course, a million other reasons NOT to shoot that junk, and I think just about everyone who shot the junk got SARS anyway, right? What increased or decreased that chance may not be known??

Moving on to some great humor!

Dirty Birds is still popping it up and selling plants for the Nehalem Bay Garden Club. We have veggie starts, herbs, natives, flowers, annuals, perennials, trees, shrubs and bulbs!

Pick your plants and put your cash in the bird house on the plant stand, or you can Venmo Kelley and Merle @kelleymerle

Delicious local compost by the 5 gallon bucket, or lovingly prepared for you in a reusable burlap bag for $30/bag.

Our Community Compost Club is getting ready to build an onsite vermiculture bin! In the meantime you can add your food scraps to one of the three bins onsite. Just make sure to read what can and cannot go in there before you feed the worms.

Planter boxes of various sizes are available pre-planted or made to order. We have small, medium, large and a tomato planter to choose from. All boxes are made from reused, upcycled wood by local artisan Mattias Ekstrom. Come take a look, pick the one you want and either buy it fully planted or email us to place your order.

Bird Feeders include a bottle style feeder where you fill a bottle with seeds and as they eat the seeds are released into the tray; and two traditional style feeders in medium or large. Super cute!

All prices are marked. If you want to pay something different feel free. Just put the money in the birdhouse or Venmo us.

Trellises available in three different sizes. Email queenbee@dirtybirdsgardencenter.com to get photos and measurements.

Check out our website for up and coming events, and feel free to suggest your own. This is a space for the community to explore, learn and reconnect with each other in ways that benefit you, us and this beautiful place we inhabit.

Hey, I’m Back!

Hey, I’m Back!
A few days ago, a neighbor stopped over at my house to tell me to get back to writing. I’ve appreciated the emails and phone calls of support from citizens in the community, many I don’t even know, urging me to keep writing. So here I am.
I didn’t take a break because I was afraid of the haters who emailed me. Disappointed and discouraged, but not afraid. A lot of those emails, I suspect, were written by people day drinking and leaving their minds behind.
I took a break to gain some distance and perspective about what’s happening politically in town and why it bugs me so much.
How do we hold people accountable for their actions in our shared public life, if not by naming both the action and the actor? If there’s no accountability, there’s no justice. If there’s no justice, there’s no peace. That’s not just a slogan.
Do the rules and laws we have apply to everyone, including our elected officials?
When the word civility is used as a tool to shut down talking about uncomfortable things, who wins? When being “nice” means being silent, how do we deal with the hard stuff?
The seeds of who we become start growing early in life. Both the bad seeds and the good seeds. Some we water and some we don’t. Some we’re aware of and some we aren’t. During my break I remembered something I hadn’t thought of for a long time that shows me one of the seeds I’ve watered and why I’ve been so bothered.
The summer I was nine we moved to Yakima, Washington from Portland. Our new home was in a quiet neighborhood with no busy streets and a cemetery at the end of the road. I could walk or ride my used pink and white Schwinn to McClure Elementary School and there were a ton of other kids about my age to play with.
Mrs. Green, my 4th grade teacher, was married to a police officer whose name was Peas. No kidding. Mrs. Green was a mixed bag. She had her favorites—Meg and Matt, Jeff and Jean—the four golden ones who got picked for everything. She was one of those adults you couldn’t trust. She acted one way when other grown ups were around and a whole ‘nother way when they weren’t.
I was somewhere in the middle of her list of kids she tolerated but there were a few kids she actively disliked—Lee who had warts on his hands and was painfully shy (I know because we were partners for square dancing). And Connie. Connie was maybe the only kid in our class who had a single mom and lived in a crappy duplex near my house. We weren’t friends really but we did walk to school sometimes. She didn’t have nice clothes like Meg and Jean. She got discounted hot lunch every day and she got excluded from things like field trips, when money was involved.
Connie got in trouble a lot for not staying at her desk. She’d get up about a million times a day to sharpen her pencil or go to the bathroom. Sometimes Mrs. Green would keep her inside at recess like that was going to help.
One day Connie got up one too many times and Mrs. Green used her husband’s handcuffs to cuff Connie to her desk. No lie. I don’t remember for how long. I do remember Connie’s face beet red with tears running down her cheeks and nose running with no way to wipe away the tears and snot.
This happened in 1969. I knew, as did every other kid in that classroom, that this wasn’t fair and it wasn’t right. If it happened today, Mrs. Green would’ve been fired and sued but none of us 4th graders told anybody. It was just another case of being a kid at the mercy of adults.
Fast forward to when the yearly school pictures came out sometime in the fall. Mrs. Green gave every kid who wanted, the smallest sized picture of her. I took one with a plan to revenge Connie in mind.
Fairness, facts, truth and justice matter more to me than just about anything else and always has, so I’m usually disappointed with how things play out in real life.
I drew a devil face and horns in ink on Mrs. Green’s picture and showed it to Connie after school. Other kids saw it and one of them snatched it from me and took it back to school to show Mrs. Green what I’d done.
I had to tell my mom and I told her why I’d done it. She wasn’t mad but she didn’t interfere with Mrs. Green’s punishment. I was supposed to write an apology and when I wouldn’t, because I was not sorry, I lost my recess for the rest of the year–months and months of sitting inside at my desk looking at Mrs. Green and wishing she was dead.
As a 9 year old, I didn’t have a way to challenge the hypocricy of an adult who pretended to be nice while using her power and control to bully a kid.
But I’m not a kid anymore.
I’ll be writing again this week. Until then, peace out.

I agree, 100 % with Kaleen Wineinger letter.
The police Station, and some of the Officers have expressed, they would be contented to stay in the heart town with yes some improvements upgrades to their quarters.
To hear watch and see the dismissive ,adult bullying
around our Respectable Mayor Deb Simons is unbelievable . A lack of grace dignity .
I too say NO to city hall

YES for Manzanita City Hall

Manzanita City Hall

We come down to it! Please send each councilor and the mayor an email [https://ci.manzanita.or.us/city-council/] urging them to vote to build Manzanita
a new city hall, and to fund it so that construction can start as soon as possible.
Each month of delay now costs the city about $20,000 ($240,000 annually)

Manzanita City Council will vote this week on whether to move ahead to
Build a new City Hall. If they vote to go ahead they will then vote to move
To Phase 2 of the project, including how to fund it. Here’s a link to the City Council
Agenda for Wednesday’s meeting: ci.manzanita.or.us/wp-content/uploads/2023/06/Regular-Session-Agenda_Final-060723.pdf
I favor the State of Oregon’s loan that City Manager Leila Aman
outlined over the last month or so. It has a really low interest rate, an efficient and speedy application process, and will be funded mostly from Transient Lodging Fees. It is a win-win all around. It’s the most bang for our buck.

For those who need to bone up on any details concerning the construction of the new
City Hall, here’s a link to the city’s “City Hall Plaza Project” section on their website:
ci.manzanita.or.us/city-hall-project/

Let’s move ahead

Manzanita Secrets

At the June council meeting next Wednesday June 7 our counselors will vote yay or nay to enter phase 2 construction of the new city hall. I personally hope it is a firm NO. A town of 620 residents does not need to spend 6.5 million, plus interest and land costs on a city hall. The city could have bought a plush million dollar house for city staff to use years ago. And some of us are disappointed that the mold first discovered in 2017 was not cleaned up at the time saving us from this current costly situation. Such negligence is disgusting. Next, why is our mayor and city manager at war? (Just watch the facial expressions of our CM in the 2023 recorded council sessions and workshops) Also, why is a counselor who has been involved for 20 years constantly shutting up newly elected Mayor Deb Simmons? What exactly is getting in the way of the mayor, councilors, and city manager working together? It is time to move away from the group think tank of old which brought us STR’s, poor zoning, unbelievably low System Development Charges and greedy building everywhere. How about Council introducing some term limits, please? And whoever is sending hate mail, STOP IT!!
The current city manager told me when she was first hired that we would get a NEW city hall because SHE did not believe in rebuilding (had been there done that). She also mentioned that probably no one would be happy with the new city hall because it would be so compromised. Okay, folks, I don’t want a 6.5 million compromised city hall complex sitting down at Underhill paid for by STR’s. Councilors, it is time to put the old thinking away,
climb out of the old group think tank, rock the boat, and show some fiscal responsibility. Maybe you could follow the repeated suggestions of Mayor Deb Simmons and look at various grants available, as well as other revenue sources. Last week while pouring through the enormous public records request made by Deb Tinnin (not the mayor) I saw two e-mails from Brian Knight of WRK Engineers, Inc. suggesting that the city apply for grants to upgrade the current police station, right in the heart of town.
THINK, PLEASE!! Vote “NO” for phase 2 and “NO” for the loan. See you live at the Pine Grove 6 pm Wednesday or on Zoom Meeting:

What is mRNA technology?

Submitted By: andynorris21@yahoo.com – Click to email about this post
Love mRNA? Hate mRNA? Not sure what mRNA technology is?

If you know what mRNA technology is, this post is not for you.

mRNA technology is what you put into your body and the bodies of your children when you succumbed to the pressure (or at least believed the lies) from Mode RNA, Fizer, the CDC, Governor Brownshirt, Biden, Mick Jagger, etc.

You should at least know what it is you injected into your children as it will be affecting their now compromised immune systems for life.

Again, SARS is not polio, it’s a strong flu. And for that, if you shot the vax, you did this:

(again, love it or hate it, at least know what you put into your body)
