As we grazed through the grass on a smoking hot day, slithering happily along an atrazine laden stream bank, enjoying the smell of bubblegum in the air, and the galagalas we spit on the ground from our throat, the red dust laden air smelled a bit funny, as we sat under an invasive clump of California grass to read the latest report from the DOH on Streams and Waterways and Atrazine
When, lo! Land Ho! Crackerjack man! What do we see, but a report that says GASP! There were chems found where the seed companies are, and some at unacceptable levels! Wow, your KIDDING US! I mean, Didn't Joan the Queen Bee of Knowledge tell us that we were SILLY LITTLE HIPPIES AND TRUSTFUND BABIES AND WE WERE JUST OVERREACTING AND THE CHEM COMPANIES WOULD NEVER LIE AND ITS NEGLIGIBLE AMOUNTS< blah blah, as her lips flap endlessly through her fingertips?
IT'S SCIENCE TO THE RESCUE! WHO WOULD A BELIEVED IT! WELL ITS NOT AN INDUSTRY FUNDED ONE SO THERE YA GO PEEPS! READ IT AND WEEP SUCKERS!
Yap. That's what she said. At the same time she claims to be a champion of writing about the woes of Native Hawaiians, and about how much of an environmentalist she is. Yeah right. Simply put, Joan, STFU!
When you read the article itself, some things are a little misleading. like the one about how "Its ok, because it doesn't exceed Federal guidelines". But Federal guidelines are for the mainland, not a tropical island in the middle of the ocean, as we are, actually the only one in the "U.S>", our tolerance levels are a lot lower. Take for instance, the case of Siguatera and Lepto. Federal guidelines are much higher then they should be acceptable for Kauai. That case has been made quite clearly, as our levels, even though under the FED guidelines, are high enough to cause sickness and even death. Same for the chemicals.
Remember when the chem companies said that Atrazine was just really old stuff left over from plantation days? LOL. BUSTED. Report says, NOPE. It is RECENT. No doubt about that.
Also says there were chems present that the chem companies DID NOT REPORT ON OR REVEAL IN THE VOLUNTARY REPORT. However, Granger throws them a tiny bone, by saying well maybe it was an earlier application. IE the residuals are still there. That's enough for us, residuals of anything when your land area is above towns, and dripping down on them, that is pretty much all of the smoking guns we need.
I love his name, Granger. Makes me think of Harry Potter. do not mess with that one, she got a MEAN witches wand. Perhaps Granger, here, a man, and not a witch, so that would make this Granger a warlock...wait. OH. My head hurts. ok, back on topic.But there is no magic potion, or wand that is going to make THESE cold had facts go away. The most important one, is prolly that atrazine can mess with your estrogen and testosterone, and make your peepee look weird, your prostate get cancer, or you end up with empty sac cajones. Or, you get breast cancer. And oh, BTW, hey kids did you know it prolly won't show up for three generations, AND, the company that makes atrazine also makes the stuff that s supposed to get rid of the cancer...it can cause....er, does anyone seed a round spinny circle in front of their eyes yet, or is that jsut me?
And, further, as CHINA is now about to DISALLOW GMO's to be used to feed its military, OMG, countries are squeezing out GMO's one by one. Can you imagine their freak out at this point, as the list of countries that are allowing GMOs in is shrinking DAILY?
Poor, Joan, whatever will she do? Well, she has been trying to find her footing amongst the peons, but it hasn't been taking. She took about 4 days off with no so called yellow journalism snark, then took a shot at the Hawaiians again, pandering, and then claimed that THE CHEMICAL COMPANIES SAVED THE HOKULEA FLEET BY GETTING RID OF THE SINGAPORE ANT INFESTATION! WAY TO GO JOAN ! Boasting about how she sleep a night in the bunks when it was moored, yada. HEY JOAN WE GOT PEOPLE THAT SAILED THE DAMNED THING.
Again, trying to be the BE ALL KNOW ALL IM IN SO GOOD WITH THE HAWAIIANS WANNA BE SAINT JOAN OF THE HAWAIIANS now. What a crock of chocolate goodness. Seriously.
Don't worry folks, we going at it hot hard and heavy later on this week so stay tuned!
So, are we gonna be able to keep up this monitoring? Oh HELL no, we can't do that. This was a ONE TIME SHOT DEAL, and the funding to continue it, of COURSE died in the legislature, with the help of ZILLIONS OF DOLLARS OF OUTSIDE MAINLAND FUNDING FUNNELING INTO HAWAII FROM OUTSIDE MAINLAND INTERESTS!
You know, the kind that Joan is always effing bitching about. She only bitches and farts though, about funding coming in to HELP the people FIGHT those companies, but meh we digress.
If you ask us, this is the nail in the coffin, the smoking gun of all smoking guns, the KISS MY ASS AND EFF U MFERS kinda stuff that we really needed.
All of the rhetoric, banter and bullshit is over. It has been proven, and with not even enough funding. Why? Cuz it can be proven when it is truly INDEPENDENT. GO BLESS GRANGER. OUR NEW HERO!
Wanna know what all of the fuss is about?

And thats not all, kids, so tonight at KCC, DR HAYS will be here, on a day when atrazine will be front and center of our lives here on Kauai. BE SURE TO MAKE THIS EVENT Sponsored by HAWAII SEED
Just remember, LOW LEVELS for the MAINLAND is high levels for us...IE...ANY is too much!!!!!
STOP POISONING OUR AINA!
We will be catching up ON Joan, Joni and the rest of the GOGO Snarkies later on this week. Our staff will be at the Dr. Hayes event tonight. If you see people that look way to happy to be there, that's us. We will be circulating little pieces of paper with our blogname on it. oh, by the way,HERE IS A LITTLE UPDATE ON WHAT WE WILL BE BRINGING YOU FROM JONI AKA TOKYO ROSE THE FARMERS DAUGHTER CHECK HER OUT IN OUR SIDEBAR:
Joni Yardners aren't farmers. you did your hydroponics wrong. You should have consulted people who actually grow organically, and know about Hydroponics. isn't it amazing that whole companies can grow enough organic produce to put products on things like huge, big supermarkets all over the country, but you can't get things to grow without chemicals? We thought you were a farmers daughter? Why were you so thrilled to grow a cucumber, or a beet? Shouldn't you be used to growing these things? Joni, get with the program, your dad wasn't growing GMO's forty years ago. Now, was he? He was doing hybridization, and tripple 16 like everyone else in Hawaii. Ask your dad. He will tell you. As for bat guano, try chicken manure, or black gold. Works great. And, if you will recall, Joni, in the second world war, where many brave Americans, and Hawaiians lost their lives, people were YARDNERS, they had VICTORY GARDENS. Ask your dad. Saved the country. We like your dad. He seems to have great knowledge. Yet, YOU need to practice a bit on your yardening skills. You should really try to bridge the gap with the farmers, and get to gather with other farmers. Oh wait, you aren't farming, you are YARDENING, and trying to "fail" at it, to show us all how complicated and difficult it is to get food without using chemicals! Oh, we get it now, thanks Joni for showing us the light! Guess that new stream and water report is kinda not making your life real good right now, huh? Roll back on the atrazine a little there Joni, hut ho! GOGO snarkie fistgies.
WE HAVE JUST MADE OVER 10 THOUSAND HITS ON GOOGLE PLUS. WE HAVE BEEN UP A LITTLE UNDER A MONTH> TAKE THAT CHUCKLES THE CLOWN LASKER WHO SAID NO ONE WOULD READ IT>
We know this is a short post today, but we got serious business to attend to today. Trust us, though we will be continuing this tomorrow, and stay tuned for all of the chocolatey goodness from Joan and the Jellybelly Brigade
Sincerely all of us, as it took us all to write this post. Caps brought to you buy our more screaming and yelling staff members.

OK, Snarkists here are the rules. You need to show your real name. Or we just ban you. We don't do anon posting here. So you need to have a legit ID.Don't like it, too bad. We don't moderate here. We just simply ban you. All you can do, is take a chance, and see if your post survives to make it onto the blog. But life is a gamble, isn't it? Kinda like when you posted your first snarky comment, kinda gave you a rush, huh? Just think of this in the same way.
Happy Snarkin!
