    What Are You Having For Dinner

    Leftovers! Chicken piccata pasta...and wine! 😁 It's a week night, though...I will behave.

    What Are You Having For Dinner

    My wife's spectacular Chicken Piccata...and a glass of white wine. Mmmmm. :)

    We Love Our Music

    Posthumously released after their lead singer died. Crazy that people with such talent and success can commit suicide. Just goes to show you that no one is safe from depression or mental strife that leads to such things. Keep a look out for others.

    We Love Our Music

    Why do you love Putin? He is doing something terrible to Ukraine right now. Are you just hopeful that he will restore the USSR?

    Thanks. I won't bother with it.

    Civil War - Trailer- Spring 2024

    Looks like you have to be a member to read it. I assume they didn't like it?

    I have a confession to make.

    I don't think urges/desires/temptations define us. I don't think our misperceptions of reality define us. We are what we are, regardless of our urges or misperceptions. Reality is reality. Urges or misperceptions are just that, an urge to change current reality on the one hand, or an...

    Today, Saturday I just bought a couple grand worth of Silver

    When I checked recently (when the news about Costco selling gold started making the rounds), Costco was less than my favorite online supplier (JM Bullion). But, Costco only had the Pamp Suisse gold bars (with Lady Fortuna--see below), which always seem to carry a higher premium than other gold...

    We Love Our Music

    Tonight, a religious song...in case you need some relaxed inspiration: David Kauffman - Behold Strangely, I don't necessarily feel like he "has done great things for me" as the lyrics say. Granted, I do believe I have lived a blessed life, and I thank God for that regularly because I think...

    I know nothing about Prepping

    I prep for: Financial crisis EMP (or other societal breakdown) Everything going perfectly great That last one is what I am best prepared for. That is why I have a 401k and other retirement savings, home owners insurance, car insurance, and the like. Amazingly, some people do not even prepare...

    Do you wave to neighbors, passing cars?

    Yep: 12:00, and two fingers up for every car in our neighborhood, whether I know them or not. Maybe especially if I don't know them...I want strangers to think, "That guy noticed me." If they are up to no good, I want them to move on to the next neighborhood over.

    Today, Saturday I just bought a couple grand worth of Silver

    My ideal scenario is to hand off my metals to my kids. Reset the basis. Things never got bad enough for me to use it.

    Preparations Update

    Eclipses happen all the time. No big deal.

    Ha! I meant the guy behind the woman, whom I assume is Ivanka Trump?

    Dude in the suit on the right looks like he's keeping a very close eye on you! :)

    If you won a million dollars, what would you do?

    If I won a million dollars in the lottery, I would take lump sum...after taxes I'm guessing I'd have an amount around $300,000. With that, I'd do some home renovation & landscaping, travel, and invest. If I had $1,000,000 take home, I would also buy some gold. If I win the big one tonight...

    Weather in your area?

    Wow. Nice great room.

    Preparations Update

    Hmmm. I have some cans we packed at an LDS cannery about 12 years ago. I might have to open a can up and see how they have fared.

    Preppers Should Invest in Coffee

    So, yeah, I agree. I don't get it. I won't drink their coffee, and their donuts can't beat the local grocery store's donuts. But, many otherwise reasonable people love Dunkin Donuts. ;) There is a clear divide in this country. Alas, my wife is one of the ones who likes Dunkin' Donuts. She...

    Dinner For St. Patricks Day

    Funny...they show a four leaf clover as a symbol of the Trinity. As you might imagine, it is the three leaf shamrock which is the symbol of the Trinity. Always amazes me that someone will go to all the effort to make a video, and get something so basic and fundamental wrong. Did they even...
