    Prep Mind Challenge

    Got you but in your real life world you had property already to leverage. What I proposed, if you spend the 10K on the down payment, you now have $0.00. That $10K was all and everything.. so no grocerys for the week, no gas for the truck...

    No, I put it in there mainly as a source to access the internet

    Prep Mind Challenge

    I thought it might be a fun exercise to see the different directions people might go and what each person might prioritize for 'themselves'. So I propose a little writing exercise or a spot to do a little preparedness mental masturbation. I'll give a few loose parameters and then off you go...

    Least popular Thanksgiving foods....

    One year I recall Mom making the casserole with fresh green beans and we didn't like it as much as when she used her home canned ones. Was definitly a taste and texture difference. I mean you'd think green beans are green beans but nope...

    Least popular Thanksgiving foods....

    I heard that recipe from Jack on The Survival Podacst. Now here it is again, thik I'm gonna have to try it. Do you think you need to steam them first or just toss them in the skillet raw?

    Least popular Thanksgiving foods....

    Keep the sweet potatoes but the rest of that list I love... Hate all the sorts of salads that always seem to show up like broccoli this, beans that... and all in some vinegary cream sauce... and red beets and eggs... what did those eggs do to anyone to deserve that?? 🤢 What about deviled...

    What Shortages are You Seeing?

    Feds control the CDL so get your jab or no trucking for you north or south of the borders... interesting though how they can hope to dictate for say Mexican and Canadian drivers coming into the US with loads... but guess same way Europe is saying no vax card, no visit. force this when drivers...

    Mass Causalities.....SUV Plows Into Waukesha Christmas Parade

    "Darrell Brooks was allegedly fleeing a domestic dispute; police say it is 'not a terrorist incident'" Bullchit!! he drove almost a mile thru a parade, he knew exactly what he was doing. People trying to get away don't go into a crowd. The fact they would even claim such a stupid thing is...

    Mass Causalities.....SUV Plows Into Waukesha Christmas Parade

    From this I'd say BLM or another black supremacist group... "The abandoned SUV was later located by police officers in a driveway, according to scanner audio. An officer said on the police radio that a bullet struck the windshield but there was no evidence anyone inside the vehicle was hit. A...

    Preparing for Winter and Colder Weather

    If I had a renter and I had to replace pipes cause they hadn't turned the heat on, they'd quickly be seeking a new landlord. Since I'm my own landlord I'd be the one paying either way

    Preparing for Winter and Colder Weather

    I suppose but as cold as it was here, with no heat you'd have swapped an energy bill for a plumbers bill to replace broken pipes...

    What's everybody doing today?

    Peanut - the info on the cherry leaves is interesting. Didn't know that or the tie in with cherry flavored cough syrup. Well I finished putting all the pool furniture and other junk away and cleaning up the miscellaneous. Everything except the blow up pool toys. Mrs said she was going to do it...

    Preparing for Winter and Colder Weather

    Just make sure you wrap them in trash bags so they don't get wet and either set up or freeze. Same reason not to use cinder blocks. Ever seen a block go thru the back window of a pickup in an accident? Pray your head isn't in the way when it does. I used to get the tube sands for the reason...

    Preparing for Winter and Colder Weather

    That would be nice. Like others here I'm sure, our heat went on about a month ago. Mornings in the 20's are a little to chill for no heat. With that said though, I'm glad it's not the -1 AlaskaJohn is seeing.
