I looked at that for way too long to figure it out. Why is this Florida and photos of water holes and NO ALLIGATORS? Every puddle has a gator right?

Also it is very true about supplies dwindling. Even the real deals and dollar tree stores are emptying out and not restocking like they used to. Tractor Supply Company also is about worthless when I need something. So for so good on the grocery stores.

Took 3 loads of scrap to the recycling center. Sold the junk 2010 for $800 after putting almost $3000 into the peice of junk. Throwing away most of my other stuff too. Nothing I need except a paycheck and wife. Has anybody delt with those "we buy houses" people? One add say's we pay cash for your home. Hmmm???

Had rouble finding a place to get any Vaccination here in South Texas. The VA facility was 25 miles away in downtown San Antonio. So I got on I-35 and drove 25 miles south to a Clinic and got my shot. I wanted the J&J shot for several reasons, so it worked out for me.

I'm at home for 2 reasons.
1. Been sick and don't want to pass it around.
2. Babysitting our wild child so he doesn't inadvertently hurt any old farts.
Kelly rode down to the Rainbow River house to eat, do the family thing, and say a prayer or two.
There's a reason for the season.

« Last post by boomer on April 02, 2021, 03:24:30 PM »as I keep pointing out. Shortages and out of stocks are everywhere, but folks just don't really notice. It isn't just ammunition that is in short supply.
Look for prices to keep going up. You simply cannot keep debasing the money supply with magic dollars and not have inflation.
Good you appreciate humor. We?re going to need it.
Your defense and the issue of microchip based technology is one thing. What is quoted above is another. It is that misinformation that warranted my response. Tweaking Gresham?s Law to fit popular talking points just doesn?t work, even if folks wish it did or pretend it does Of course, shifting a discussion away from the real issues is an all too common practice
We find ourselves today as Livy found in his time. ?We can neither endure our vices nor face the remedies needed to cure them.?
Recycling misinformed talking points is not a solution. Just saying

« Last post by madmaxine on April 02, 2021, 08:31:21 AM »My justification for the thread is that when we get back from a long camp we really need clean clothes. Those appliances use microchips. 2 of 4 vehicles to get to camp and back use microchips. We only use a gennie on our long (months) camping trips. But we have 3. At least one has microchips.
Phone (safety). Microchips.
Ham radio (safety). Microchips.
GPS. Microchips.
Eyeglasses. Pretty sure nobody hand grinds lenses anymore. So machine to make them. Microchips.
Solar chargers. Forget about it. Microchips.
The canal blockage directly affected this hobby/ pastime/sport/lifestyle/etc of ours. And will probably for a long time.
