Back in the 90’s they had the capability of injecting a small capsule in to your bloodstream to be able to track. I can only imagine what they have now. They keep us about 10 - 15 years behind on the technology from what I can tell from different sources. You also have to remember that DARPA continuously works on new projects along with other laboratories and agencies.

Last night I spoke to a soldier who told me that he had friends in the military who had seen someone wearing what appeared to be a person wearing one of those “invisible suits” that take the image behind you and put it in front of you and make you appear invisible. They attempted pursuit of “it” but lost “it”. He said he knows the soldiers personally and they are not the type to lie. He didn’t mention location or specifics but I didn’t press him on it either....

I caught a cold on Jan 2 and couldn’t shake it. Could not smell, wheezed and coughed,etc. Thought about that remedy, had two sammiches,(had to make them myself)and was alright. Momma was correct.

Onions and garlic are amazing. Raw garlic kept me from catching the flu a few years ago when my entire family went down like dominoes. It’s pretty brutal to eat so I made a garlic tincture (still awful, but better than raw) and use that whenever I feel something other than a cold coming on.

I still remember cringing whenever I saw my grandpa prepare his sandwiches, but other than cardiovascular disease late in life he was never sick. My mom always said it was the beer and onions that kept him alive so long. After looking at another response to your post, I wonder if he picked up the onion sandwich habit after serving in WWII?

I tried the hand sanitizer on my children. They could barely get it down, and then they threw it up. But, they seem to liken the q-tip sandwich.
