Greetings fellow patriots! Houston we have a problem! A big one. I'm located in South Louisina 337. On February 28 a white SUV pulled up to the house with red DHS lettering with Texas plates. (Texas WTH i thought y'all were with us) I saw them pull in the drive an met them outside at their truck 2 agents late 40s-50s. They say Hi we are here doing a survey. One agent pulls out 3 volumes (looked like phone books almost sizewise) He ruffles through the pages in first then second volume. He finds my list (The 1 that they don't have). he says so we are doing a survey and we are going around visiting everyone and trying to verify if you own or still have these firearms. He proceeds to show me my list. Every gun i bought from a dealer is on this list. Every one from 22s to Mosin Nagants and everything in between. I was blown away and still am. Many bricks have been shat since then! I told them nah i don't have any of those dangerous baby killers gave them all away after Newtown. They left but sat parked down the road for a couple hours. Probably coordinating drone strike. I have ony told a couple of close friends i trust. I've been tryng to keep it together. The first person i told also had a visit exactly 2 weeks before me. He ordered a questionable part off the net an that's what the agents told him they were after. He lives 5 minutes down the road. I was freaked then but I didn't think anything of it you know he brought it on himself. Until i got a visit. All my stuff is legal and above board. No worries on that part. But then why did i recieve a visit? I don't know i've been gripped with fear since. Keeping watch on my porch, almost sleeping outside some nights. And then yesterday my wife's friends parents who are an hour north of us got a visit. Only the mom was home and she told them to hit the street. These people are farmers and have guns but mostly Fudd guns and relics passed down. The father was going somewhere on business this weekend and next week. He cancelled. Even the Fudds aren't safe from this. My only solace in all of this is the 3 massive volumes the jackboots had. I know i'm not the only one. I don't know what to do?! It took this long for me to tell somebody else. My wife and i are scared [crap]less!I'm not sure if they are testing the waters seeing who will comply. Or if it's something else entirely. Why down here? Why not in Commiefornia or one of these other liberal dreamlands? I thougt we were good we just voted to strengthen the 2nd in our state. i just keep saying in my head. WTF?
fanfan is a serious gardener, too.
We still have only arugula, Dragonbaby’s favorite food.
There are no “scientific reasons” to force this country to become Mexamerica, but that is what is happening with the lack of control of illegal immigrants, most of whom cannot only NOT pull their weight, but become a large, endless drain on America’s resources.
With people like Zero, Piglosi and Corkscrew Reid, we are doomed. They have no clue, up there in their insulated towers. They just have a massive need to be accepted, no matter the cost.
The thing that is Uber-Scary to me is the fact that the month I spent in Pakistan 10 years ago alerted me that the illegals coming across the border from the south could very well be terrorists: Third World countries; similar foods; similar sizes for men and women; similar dress...it was a month full of eye-openers, for sure. I came home scared to my bones that SOMEONE in this country was asleep at the wheel, and would be for many years to come.
It begs the query: Who is watching the watchers?
I would buy the quart, but there is no pina colada yogurt in a quart, unless it is... GREEK! Not with MY money! I eat yogurt every evening with my pills to try and thwart the upset stomach that my evening pills often cause.
*sheesh* If food corporations depended on me for sustenance, they would starve.
I’m a noob at gardening in a temperate climate. fanfan has experience and is forging new paths with her winter gardening experiments. Arugula sounds good. I haven’t been successful with genus allium or potatoes. In the desert, I couldn’t grow lettuce. I’m taking the chill off some watermelon sorbet from last summer, but we’re concentrating on canteloupes this year because that’s what friends and neighbors seem to enjoy most. JustaDumbBlonde recommended the Excalibur dehydrator and we dried canteloupe chips which are ambrosial! Dehydrated pear chips are delicious alone or in oatmeal. One of our neighbors has a pear tree that he thinks is about a hundred years old and it still produces. Who knew? Astonishment is a daily event around here. (Thank You, Creator!) :)
Not to mention the fact that John Stamos is not an enticement. I’ve never been attracted to men with massive amounts of body hair. *shudder*
If you want to start a few seedlings, without fear that they will receive sufficient water and light to make them grow, consider this:
Toilet Tank Lid PlanterYou can see from the link that this is a really old idea, and other links suggest that bathrooms are not healthy places to grow edible plants. But this is just for temporary, right?
Since such tops can no longer be found, I suggest an alternative, use some easy to assemble styrofoam or foam-board pieces to hold a plastic drywall compound tray, (or something of similar size. It needs to fit the tank.) You'll need to choose where the water enters and leaves..
The rest of it depends on the configuration of your toilet refill valve. You could let the tray dip into the top level of the tank, or cycle the refill tube through it. Use your imagination.
Note: If you can find the right kind of material for the top, you could just make some large holes in it, and drop in some standard clay flower-pots.)
Make sure nothing interferes with the refill mechanism,!
Then you'll need to set up a grow light over the tank, (with a 24-hour timer). Keep the electricity safely separated from the water.
.
Or you could just buy more mature seedlings from the co-op store when you get back from your trip.
If my bathroom size allowed such a luxury, I might consider it. But with the fact that two crops of tomatoes are the norm, here, I can get the seedlings when I get back. It would be nice to have a really fresh tomato sandwich! :o])
“Mature” Exactly! That’s why the FFA sells transplants! You’ll not only encourage and support some very upstanding and solid young citizens and their endeavors, you’ll get very healthy and beautiful tomato plants and whatever else it is they happen to cultivate! It’s a very feel-good experience.
If I can find the print-out from years ago about Soros, I will send you the link.
And with that, I’m taking my weary body to bed.
FYI: (To all who are interested.) The rug is now in my living room. I had to move it the width of the door because it is too thick for the door to move over. It also looks dirtier in artificial light, BUT: My daughter gave me some Bissel shampoo, and the rug never seemed to improve. Period. I had a little of the Hoover liquid that came with my machine, and I used it at the last. It got up more dirt on that one tank than the Bissel did on the five previous tanks.
Come payday, I will buy a large bottle of Hoover shampoo, drag the rug back outside and give it hell!
The good news is that it is soft and pliable, now, whereas, when I first got it, it was stiff and unbending. I’m still excited, because it looks so good in here!
‘Nite, all!
Sweet dreams, ‘Face!
Very happy about your rug, and don’t put up with any grumbling!
Iran trying to send a monkey into space
Iranian space officials announced they will make another attempt to launch a live monkey into space within the next month, according to news reports.The Mehr news agency reports that the monkeys will be sent up in a capsule named Pishgam, or (Persian for “pioneer”) which will be aboard a Kavoshgar rocket.Being able to put a live monkey into space aboard this capsule would allow Iran to move one step closer to putting a human into space. With a successfully extraterrestrial monkey, the Iranian Space Agency projects it would be able to achieve human space flight within five to eight years.
Do you really understand how beating the daylights out of something can actually get it clean? I’ve read about some road warriors’ makeshift washers (a new plunger stuck through a hole in the top of a bucket of water w/detergent in it), but just physical force? What happens to one’s delicates? I’ll think about that tomorrow.
Nothing in my house DARES to grumble! It would mean instant banishment to someone of lesser standards. A fate worse than death...or just plain existing...
Thank you. Since I haven’t located a competent voodoo instructor, I’ll continue to send negative vibes toward the Iranians.
I used the plunger and bucket method of washing clothes for three years while the late Igor and I were Camphosts for the USFS. It was a fun gig, and I didn’t mind washing a few things at a time. I could hang them up and let the mountain/desert air dry them.
The delicates survive, since they don’t need the badgering that Levis need.
I am dismayed and disgruntled about Iran sending a brother into space as an experiment. I hope they don’t graduate to humans...
