Why are you talking about Bitcoin?
You boasted about making a killing on Polygon (Matic) and not Bitcoin.
As I remember, I pointed out, based on the dates you said you invested, that you had lost your shirt on this donkey and I see they have even faller lower since you bought them.
So what b/s are you now going to try and convince us with that you make a killing on what was obviously a Ponzi investment?
I see the truckers are doing a good job on their own.

They have brought enough food for a week or two so they won't be going home at night. I suppose they are no different from the truckers stuck on the M20 In England trying to get to the continent through Dover.
Keep it up boys until you have Ryan's head, hopefully on the end of a catalytic converter. That might just clear his mind.
I always suspected you were a miserable religious old biddie, never had a bit of the other over all your years as you sit in your cold cloister somewhere waiting for your final end.
Otherwise how would you know what a " Nun's wet fart" was? You probably heard it coming from the next room or let it off yourself and it kept you awake, hence your posting at strange hours of the night. Probably caused by eating stewed nettles or some other "delicacy".
I bet it smelt a lot like you.
The truckers are in Dublin but the farmers have not turned up in any great numbers, if at all.
Probably at home milking their cows by hand.
Good to see them looking for Ryan's head. May it come on the back of a bull as he and that's rear end have a lot in common.
If Ryan falls on his bike will that mean a general election if it brings the government down, I wonder as if Ryan walks probably the whole of the Green party will walk with him. Good riddance, I say.
Wales has dragons and poor old Ireland has dinosaurs - aka Moneypoint (and of course Eamon Ryan).
Madness. Moneypoint is positioned to be the backup of choice for electrical generation when oil and gas do not meet demand.

Moneypoint "With coal as its primary fuel, it is believed to be the country’s single biggest emitter of greenhouse gases and an eyesore in terms of the State’s climate objectives." and "“ESB sources coal for Moneypoint on international markets. Russian coal accounted for almost all of the coal consumed in Moneypoint in 2021,” the ESB said."
So two problems, Moneypoint should be well closed as Ireland's biggest polluter and it has been burning Russian coal.
The old song "Where have all the flowers gone?" tells the answer when it's chorus says "When will they ever learn, when will they ever learn".

Dublin to be gridlocked on Monday with fuel protesters blocking all entries to Dublin.
They say they are not leaving before they get the government to agree on price caps for fuel as follows: "The price caps the group are seeking are €1.10 per litre for petrol, €1.20 per litre for diesel, 65c per litre for green diesel and 65c per litre for home heating oil."
Are you listening Mr. Ryan and watch out, they might just confiscate your bike as you try and ride through them.

As I have mentioned before, Ryan's days are numbered when the farmers run out of diesel.
And where does most of Ireland's diesel come from? Russia, actually.
While the UK gets little oil and gas from Russia "Eighteen per cent of British diesel comes from Russia, despite the UK being less reliant on the country for other forms of gas and oil. " and Ireland depends on the UK for its diesel, oil and gas.
The following article says Ireland has now got very little diesel so there will be mayhem among the farmers when it runs out.

Found the following video of TheShen before he became the "Pimple".
This video displays him at his "best" as both TheShen and Gunther Pimple.
I am sure you will agree with me that this video shows him in his true light. It even references this by saying it is "TheShen".

Not an "archived" article from about 4 hours ago:

Running for cover - me thinks!
Is your pimple hurting you? Could be skin cancer and I suggest you get it checked.
52 posts in 5 months. Not your usual style and I see you still suffer from insomnia - posting at about 3.30am the other morning.
Getting a bit more confident now that you won't get booted off this BB again and since you claim you "removed" your posts under "TheShen", tell us how you did it. Liar!!!!! But keep it up and we will see how long you survive this time.
As for the post, it does not make any difference whether it was "archived" or not. What it proves was the animosity your "Green" pal has raised among the farmers and when he has got his comuppance you will see that Barryroe will get it go ahead.
And I believe that Barryroe will return to its original plan and just go for oil and gas in the current location without an appraisal well at what it was going to do to try and increase the amount of gas as oil and gas will be needed long before 2026.
And, by the way, how many of the big holders of Barryroe stock are farmers?
You are so grumpy I suggest you suffer from a good does of piles and when you sit on them they make you write the rubbish you do. I suspect they hang out of your rear end like a bunch of grapes. There is treatment you can get for that if you ask your doctor nicely but then you probably abuse him too.
So I suggest a good does of Night Nurse might make you sleep better and put you in a better mood - if that were possible.
Interesting that the Indo reprinted this article today, 31st March 2022.
https://www.independent.ie/regionals/kerryman/business/farming/farmers-wont-bow-to-green-party-40936658.html
From the Kerryman and obviously very close to the hearts of the Healy Rae brothers and expresses how the farmers think.
I thought you were not going to respond but I see you are glued to this BB even though you have posted next to nothing and it is you who is upset because you responded. Didn't like what I wrote you poor "motherless" man, I suspect.
As for upset - in fact your post gave me a good laugh and an insight as to why you a*selick those politicians who pay your pension or is it a parson's stipend?
So please "make my day" as Dirty Harry said, and respond again telling us how you "save" the climate in your hovel in the ox mountains.
As for a "bigger farm" in the ox mountains, did your nephew not know back in the good old days he could have swapped his scrawny spread in the ox mountains for a good quality farm in say Meath or KIldare when the Land Commission used to do swaps?
So please keep amusing me as you frantically support those dolts in the Dail who think farming is easy
Typical Irish chauvinist and obviously a lonely old bachelor now that your "nephew" is running the farm. Probably a retired priest since you obviously left the farm after the age of 25.
"My father"..."7 of 8 children".... Did you not have a mother or was she totally incidental other than popping out children?
And if I want to write a "political diatribe" I will not be lectured to by a bog trotter.
While I came from a farming background on both sides of my family I fortunately left it early and spent my life earning a lot of money in the computer industry rather than bursting my proverbials cutting turf, thinning carrots, making hay, milking cows which i did regularly when I spent my summer holidays on their farms and came to know the issues that affected farmers back then and continues to do so now and was aware that farming in Ireland, in the main, is a lost cause.
And if those gobsh***tes who sit in Dail Eireann and think the farmers are going to take their preaching that they should all get bikes, stop burning fossil fuels and freeze to death and commit suicide when they cannot make ends meet you are very mistaken.
How do you heat your house at the moment? I hope you have a windmill, solar panels and a heat exchange unit but I bet you don't which makes you a hypocrite.
And, by the way, I know the ox mountains because I have relatives that live in Achill Sound, which is not too far from where you obviously heat your rear end at others expense.
The following shows how windy it was in ireland in February. No wonder a lot of electricity was provided with this wind but it will be interesting to compare it to March when those figures come out. Will be nothing like February's.
It is interesting if you go down the piece that they have the names of storms to come already specified.
https://www.met.ie/index.php/climate/storm-centre
Article in today's Daily Mail says only four per cent of total primary demand for energy was supplied by wind power in the UK in 2020 and I presume it was not much better in 2021.

Costs a fortune, looks horrible and does nothing but eat money.
So JODO,
This is all a lie.

Grovel and admit you were wrong.
Since you question my "scattergun" rants that "irritate" you perhaps you are so far up your rear end that you do not live in the real world.
Please enunciate what "scattergun" rants you are referring to and let us see if you really are talking out of your rear end.
For example, you state that " And btw, in 2021 there was a farming fatality every 41 days." whereas the official statement says “It’s very sad to think that I know 41 people in the farming community that died last year and 13 so far this year.”
Now, obviously your maths is lousy but 365/41 does not equate to to one every 41 days. The official statement says that "THERE were 41 cases of farm related suicide in County Cork during 2021" - In Cork alone - that is not one every 41 days as you claim.
And It is not tenuous. farmers are dying because they cannot make farming pay because city "runts" like Ryan puts stumbling blocks in their way.
Friends of mine have a three hundred acre farm, of the best land, and a number of children and cannot make it pay even though they are great farmers and work their socks off. Only one of the children works the farm while the rest have other jobs in other sectors to make a living and can do so because they are relatively close to a major urban centre.
The suicide among farmers is bad enough but if there is going to be a shortage of diesel or it is at an astronomical price which prevents them from working how many more are going to die? So what is tenuous about that.
If you really want an opinion I suggest you contact the Healy Rae brothers and ask them. They will soon put you straight with a proverbial flea in your ear.
And since you seem to be a-licking that other a'hole Eamon Ryan you are probably a "Green jackeen" and like the rest of the greens see the world through green-tinted glasses.
And, by the way, anything I write about Irish politics is all available on the internet in one form or another so perhaps you should learn to do a bit of research instead of spouting off and in the meantime I look forward to you elucidating my "scattergun rants".
To JODO,
Listen to the "pot (you) calling the kettle black".
I have read through your shyte in your other posts to other BBs and you are ladled with it. One post in (how many?) for PVR and you win no accolades with the others you have posted to other BBs.
As for shyte re the Greens, there is every possibility they won't even be in government by December given the "infighting" they are doing amongst themselves and the resignations they are having.
https://www.irishtimes.com/news/politics/bitter-infighting-in-green-party-threatens-to-undermine-coalition-1.4520104
There will be at least one vote of no-confidence in the "coalition" government before the tainted "I told my friend secrets, sorry", "airy-fairy" Varadkar hopes to become the replacement Taoiseach.
As for that numbskull GunterPimple who thinks Ireland is only a country of beef farmers and does not know that to become a farmer you have to go to college and get a qualification, otherwise you cannot run a farm, has the temerity to claim that farmers are "thick". Furthermore, there are nearly as many milk farmers with 1.5m cows who produce 8 billion litres of milk a year and Ryan wants them to milk them by hand as agricultural diesel is now nearly non-existent so they cannot run milking machines.
Sounds like Marie Antoinette's famous "No bread? let them eat cake".
Not only that, but farming in Ireland is fraught with danger. On average, one farm worker gets killed every 21 days and in the last year there were 41 suicides in Cork alone and already this year in January and February there were 13 also in Cork. So how many throughout the whole country? And GunterPimple thinks farming is an "easy" job.
You don't hear Ryan talking about that do you? Perhaps he should go and live in the country for a while and see how long he survives.
https://www.independent.ie/regionals/corkman/news/41-farm-related-suicides-in-2021-13-already-this-year-cllr-frank-roche-41405948.html
And you think the farmers are going to let a gobsh*** like Ryan destroy the farming community? I can very soon see a hefty load of cow manure or a good load of slurry ending up in his nice garden in Dundrum or he might find himself skidding around the roads of Dublin on his fancy bike or having an "accident" with a combine-harvester.
It is time that dozy bunch in Leinster House woke up before the proverbial really hits the fan.
Chances are that Ryan will no longer be Minister for DCCAE when the government changes in December of this year.
Fine Gael will be the party in charge on the takeover then and give Ryan's diabolical activity and his hatred by the farmers and the independents the chances are Fine Gael - with probably Varadkar as T. - will give him some other ministry if they hope to stand a chance of being reelected in 2225 as he has made a b***s of his current one.
Ranger4,
Biden has promised 15bcm to Europe this year. But Germany alone uses 85bcm a year so Biden's promise is just a drop in the ocean.
"In 2021, European imports of gas from Russia were more than 380 million cubic metres (mcm) per day via pipeline, totalling about 140 bcm for the year".
So Biden's 15bcm is only 10% of what the EU used. It is nothing more than a "token".
Furthermore, Ireland could not use the gas because Ryan refuses to use "fracked" gas.
Get your facts straight. Biden's gas in no way prevents a Barryroe especially as shipping that gas across the Atlantic will be horrendously expensive which, in comparison, makes developing Barryroe very cheap.
As the old saying goes "hoisted by your own petard" which literally means "you shot yourself in your foot" - a bit like what those poor Russian soldiers in Ukraine are doing so that they can go home.
