Building the soil. Don't rake up those bamboo leaves and burn them, let them decompose into the soil.

At the moment it's overcast and raining but this morning it was sunny and a good time for chickens to cross the street. Rainy season in Panama.

Thing is, it was PROFITABLE for them, and indirectly, for him. Growing up colonial engenders these obnoxious expectations of entitlement, and South African apartheid was colonialism on steroids.

IF, as Trump and Hegseth say, the Memorandum of Undesrstanding is a treaty, then to be effective it must be ratified in a national referendum. The problem is that the powers and procedure for doing this are vague in the dictatorship's 1972 constitution.

NOW, it seems, Pentagon censors have wiped this iconic public domain photo from the US military archives. But it has spread too far and wide.

A few days after the attack, I met a crying old man, whose wife had been trapped in the firestorm unleashed on this place, and nobody would tell him where the body was taken. GHW Bush, you see, was denying that it ever happened.

eat a lot of chicken and many of my neighbors raise them. I could use them to improve my farm's soil. But I don't want to protect them from dogs and cats, don't wanty to add feeding them to my chores, don't want to kill or clean them.

I wonder how many in his crew Trump would have deported because they were dark-skinned and spoke Arabic.

Rain here in Panama's Dry Arc, two April days in a row. Looks like a long and brutal dry season is at its end.

I wonder about the lineages of some of Panama's dogs. In Colombia, the Fino hound (left) is considered an indigenous Colombian breed. It has those cool hound dog ears. But in Panama, there are these -- sort of -- similar dogs with different ears, as on the right. Ancient cousins?

The last time the United States attacked Panama, hundreds of people were killed in this neighborhood for just being in the way.

Tick season. Biologist in the house may correct mu crude understanding. It seems that ticks are kind of omnivorous. They will suck the juices out of certain plants when the sap's running. But otherwise they suck animal blood. The dog's, the cat's or yours or mine.

My late friend, Black Panther political prisoner and then University of Michigan-Dearborn history professor and very popular Detroit-area imam Ahmad A. Rahman, put it to me during Thomas's Senate hearings: "Mobutu was also a black man."

They sort of put Kristi Noem on the job, but although she's a mother her skills at that sort of thing, like her gun manners, are wanting.

Daily watering, another thinning later in the week, and shortly after rainy season starts I'll be able to go the distance with Bluto.

At at about 8 a.m. this morning, the traffic madness was only beginning to reach Anton. Drive carefully, folks. It woud be downright UNHOLY to be squished in twisted metal over the Holy Weekend.
