Beyond record hot, February was 'astronomical' and 'strange'

I was not getting a thing done in the office today so I went out to help a friend put a fuel pump in his tractor. Once again he nailed it. How? Here is what he said,

“I’m tired of things that I have done all my life suddenly having become not only against the law but criminal.”

Me too. I’m sick of being afraid of getting my bulldozer out to build a pond on my own place for fear the EPA will come after me. Watering from my own pond for fear the water resources board will say something about it. Having to show an ID to buy paint even though I am clearly many decades beyond an age of accountability. Grabbing for a seat belt when I see a cop. Pick anything and it is somehow illegal now. The list of stupid things goes on and on and on.

The media have cast the bait the gullible have swallowed.

We are told the dollar is “crashing” when it just moves down 0.28% in one day and it will move back up again tomorrow. Panic is expected. We are told the market is up, right, only less than 3% a year since 1/1/08 and we are supposed to feel “good” about that? Do you feel prosperous with a 3% gain per year? More propaganda. The new normal. The misinformation campaign just goes on and on and on and on.

I just want to kill something or somebody.

[[Grabbing for a seat belt when I see a cop. ]]

Exactly- My mind is tired- and i forget a lot- especially when I’m trying to remember several things at once (Get milk, salt, eggs etc)- I take off for the store, and am trying to remember these things, and bam=- get pulled over for no seat belt

[[The list of stupid things goes on and on and on.]]

Yup- It just doesn’t end now

[[Do you feel prosperous with a 3% gain per year? ]]

After 4 or 5 years of no cost of living increase for SS Yes, i would feel prosperous with that lol
