Dad always asked, "How much does it eat?" meaning what is the cost. Dad also taught me that cheap is expensive as you have to replace the tool or article of clothing. Growing up I also learned that what is going out is more important than what is coming in. In our 40+ years of marriage my...

In the country it is easier to drop a few trees to block the road and a kid with a .22 can turn them back. I have seen city people placed in the country and they have a very hard time of it. Sam

Going to have our taxes done next week, wonder how people will react this year? Many might have to pay taxes this year or not get anything back. Correct me if I am wrong, the first money last year wasn't that an advance on this years refund? Sam

The first rule is: DON'T! Don't panic, be in a hurry, scared. Any one of these can and will get you hurt. I don't plan on "trading" as this just tells other's that you have something of value that other's might want. I have always made it my habit to get in, get done and get out! We are...

Cashed out all of our stocks when Biden was going to be President and put it into the cabin with more food for the pantry. Only metal I am interested in is lead. Short of it all to a hungry person a metal can of beans is worth how much gold? Sam

@ least half of the people oppose National Socialism that is a given. What is going to happen is anyone's guess that is a given. I only have control on what I can reach out and touch or influence so why concern one's self? If RADAR show's a storm is approaching we do the best to get ready for...

If Biden does become the next President and the Senate flips all bets are off. As President Trump stated that the cure cannot be worse then the disease. All the Socialist see is "shutdown" and not much more. The restaurant industry is being disseminated in many areas of the country due to...

I use Master Blend as the main component of the equation. Three times I have had to trim the growth back as there is just too much. One can literally watch it grow and grow and grow! Sam
