27° here suppose be around 40° today.
We’re getting to around freezing today. I’d take the 40 real quick.
Now we’re getting another storm on Friday night into Saturday and Sunday. Snow then rain again. That’s the worst.

They lost customers. Quality sucks now.
Caper
Nevertheless, China got the manufacturing base out of it. And the westerners that moved their manufacturing bases to Asia and set them up over there are responsible for the machining, tooling and the inferior quality of the products being shipped back west….

Trump had that right. If you want to take your manufacturing out of the country, then you get taxed enough so your not making any more money than you were here. If we ever get really into it with China, we’re all screwed.

That doesn’t even sound good….😳
IT was too funny. The government in the 80’s said no more cod fishing. So St John’s gave money for a cucumber greenhouse. Even though Newfoundlanders ate a half of a cucumber a year. So they were trying different things. It looked as bad as it sounds. OMG it was funny.

Yes, that’s a fact. Not only because of the manufacturing dilemma, but because of their growing military power and alliances with Russia and Iran……😡

And I meant that if he was going to lecture me to buy American and hire American, then he ought to have started by setting the example. His properties are staffed by HB1 visa holding foreigners and his products are mostly made over seas. Nothing more aggravating than the hypocrisy of an elitist…..🙄

By the Spanish and everyone else. Canada has strict quotas for years, but other countries would go off the Grand Banks and take all they could. That’s why the boarder at sea went farther out to protect stocks.
Newfoundlanders can take a couple a day for themselves now again. If you ever come up, anybody with a boat would take you out.

Ukraine could be not good for all of us. Biden and Treudeau are getting military on notice. You know Canada and the US have people there already.
Caper
It’s none of our business you know. We have no formal treaty obligations with Ukraine. And Putin’s actions are a result of broken promises from the Reagan era that taking down the Berlin Wall would not result in further expansion of NATO eastward. Objectively, one cannot blame the consternation of the Russians at seeing western weaponry and troops creeping ever closer to their borders…

And then of course there’s the whole devilry of the West in 2014 when the Obama administration (and other western powers) supported the overthrow of the democratically elected government in Kiev. Consequences…..😉

Putin did what he had to do in Georgia during the Bush administration. He did what he had to do in Syria and Crimea during the Obama administration, and I suspect he’ll do what he needs to do in Ukraine during the Biden administration….😉
