    I see where Congress passed the deficit spending bill. I am so pissed, fired off a email to my rep.. Told him I would never vote for a Republican again because they and the DemcRAT’S are the same, just, different sides of the same coin. I also said that the Republican party is going the same way as the ‘wig party’ did 100 years ago. Was thinking about sending him a wig but, I don’t think they make wigs that big.

    Correction #3 “With ONLY the original amendments”

    Dennis, I sure did catch that bit of news. Encouraging, huh? SO much is totally out of our control these days. The collapse of the U.S. is in progress. And on so many fronts. Biden even opened the border WIDER today. Is that possible? I kinda thought it was really wide open now. Well gee, what do I know? And to Kula, Horse, and NRP (& Blue), I have really come to love the ‘Piano Guys’ on Youtube. Amazing music. Discovered them during the plandemic. Peace for the soul. Kula, I also need to find other things to read. And tomorrow I am spending in the garden. Also good for the soul.

    Opened a pouch of store-bought beef jerky just now….a small silica gel packet fell to the floor. As I picked it up, I notice the warning “DO NOT EAT” was printed on it no less than four times on both sides. Once again I’m reminded why democrats continue to get elected.

    I don’t think it’s the freaks doing the dividing. It’s the far left giving them space, a voice and platform to spread the freakishness, basically the freaks are just being used. Typical of the opposition. Remember, It’s easier to control a divided nation than a united one. Not that “we” have ever truly been united but the more hate permeates everything the more distracted everyone is the easier to push agenda’s.

    The pathetic Idiot in Chief (Biden) took another fall during the USAF Academy graduation like the feeble, mentally challenged POS that he is. Hopefully XI and Putin were watching and will plan their strategy accordingly. The sooner the American Deep State political cabal is eliminated the sooner we will at least have a chance to rebuild the Country on the original Constitution without ANY amendments.

    hermit us: Tis it not surprising, or maybe not surprising at all, that such a small group can divide a country so widely in such a short time frame. Follow the money, you’ll find the true corruption. Ask Buttlite how it’s going for them when “We the People” speak with the pocketbook. PS: Bud-Lite beer really is gross tasting brew.

    A few years ago, I asked when would the line be crossed and the citizens would take action. It appears we finally did and many corporations and politicians are on their heals. No, it was not the economy, the border, inflation, supply chains, corruption, … it was so far from my mind that it did not make any list that I saw – sexuality. As society finally seeing the perversion seeping into our education system, government, religion, …. bring it citizens.

    Kula: The ACB’s are a good read, both versions. I’ll also agree with horse, some “Good” classical music is heaven on the soul. The three B’s come to mind. Maybe an occasional early rock. But none of that heavy stuff, to hard on the ears anymore.

    Zombie horror stories, mindless entertainment. Good classical music and something to drink is also good time away from reality.

    Mrs. U, Breitbart, Bing News, MSN News. Watched a Mexican TV video clip showing cartel member carrying the launchers linked to the story. Tried to reach that link again just now…get the “sorry…no longer working” page. Probably just a coincidental, temporary problem.

    THE best reference for frequencies in this regard is, radioreference.com (you do need to create an account and it does cost $30/yr). With that said, if you simply start searching for ‘scanner frequencies’ along with your local area included in the search (town, or city, or county, etc..) there are other resources to freely discover frequency information.

    Question Mr. has an old Uniden Bearcat 148 XLT-1 scanner. He still has the frequency books from 1994-1995. He had a hand held at one time. Do frequencies expire? He wants me to look into this old scanner. sigh……….. but I will.

    Dennis, Would those be the same yahoos who failed to recover nearly 1,300 guns they themselves trafficked to those same cartels? And the same doofuses who failed to properly secure thousands of weapons and parts slated for destruction and whose own staff and contractors are suspected of stealing them?

    Those packages of Knoor noodles and such are good keepers too. We had some old boxes of cheap mac n cheese. The powdered cheese was not worth keeping but the macaroni was fresh enough. So repackaged the macaroni.

    I am flogging the dead horse here, forget about Vienna sausages. Have thrown out many cans. Next is the fruits even the mixed fruits. Watch them closely they are a mess to clean up or begin to bulge. Also cans of drinks like coke with sugar. These will deteriorate too. Messy sticky spray out on other items.

    Last trip to Wally’s I purchased more C, D, and multi’s. Should now have over a two-year supply of each. Have also reached a full year’s worth of all my daily prescriptions. Most now are made in China, should we go kinetic with them those supply lines are gone….maybe all those bio-labs we have in Ukraine and Somalia can pick up the slack…if they stop tinkering with new ways to kill us…….

    I know for most folks the vitamin c is a big one, i forgot about that type of supplement 😳, was thinking protein supplement, like spirutine or muscle milk etc, i wonder if re packaging in individual packs then storing in vac sealed jars would extend their life? Stirring up a quick shake might be a good add on to keep energy levels etc up where they will need to be?

    So heres a thought, with the concern over calories and protein etc, supplements make more sense. Maybe we all need to do some research on supplements and see if we can find some that will keep? More stuff to think on.

    You know DJ, I keep thinking the same sorta thing every day, yet i get sucked into the news daily, its like watching that train wreck, you want to look away, but just cant. I really need to find something else to read when im looking for mindless entertainment. Maybe the Anarchist Cook Book or something like that, just some light reading.

    …oh, my bad. In order to be a straw purchase, the item in question has to be purchased by the seller to begin with. Prosecuting in this case would be like prosecuting the federal plants inside a “right-wing” militia for coming up with plans for and inciting an “insurrection”…….

    I buy my hormel canned meats online (Amazon) they are priced sometimes cheaper than wallyworld and are packaged for no damage deliveries. SOME ADVICE, I buy my canned foods and freeze dried foods in cooler seasons as to not have frozen or boiled deliveries due to adverse weather. I have known ‘seasoned preppers’ who have made major errors both in their seasonal ordering and home storage of their canned or freeze dried foods because of when and where they procure or store it..

    DJ5280, Did you catch the news that American AT-4 rocket launchers “given” to Ukraine are showing up south of the border in the hands of the cartels. Now whoever would have guessed that giving war armaments to the most corrupt country on the planet would result in them being sold to unfriendlies controlling our border? …and of course…congress, keenly aware that our engine is knocking due to lack of lubrication, pulled out a dry dipstick to confirm it….voted to install a longer dipstick to fix the problem. Meanwhile…reporting from the mountain…life is still good.

    Ken, I would rather consume 2 cans of spam or canned high protein content meats rather the have canned veggies (any type) with a average 70 calories contents per can, which equates to ridiculous approx 30 cans daily to get close to a 2000 calorie intake, we as preppers need to gear our food preps to calories intake, first and quantity second. When I first started prepping decades ago I never had a thought about calories per can versus minimum daily calories needed. I have known “preppers” who thought having just vegan attitude basis as a survival standard.

    Are Fish Antibiotics Headed Towards Prescription-Only?
    Dennis,…..you are spot on about fishmox, I have been lucky with a friend who travels to Mexico twice a year to a pharmacy and brings me back ‘ormocyn t-5’ the Amoxicillin equivalent. Last time I received 25 box’s which I store in the freezer, These are 500 mg with 20 per box cost 1 Buck (each box,)we pay for u.s. pharmaceutical manufacturing to be sold in other countries for pennies, we are screwed by our govt on a daily basis how truly pathetic this country has become.

    Emergency Dental Kit and Remedies
    I purchase a few simple dental tool kits. The sort of thing the hygienist attacks your mouth with when you come in for a cleaning. Stainless steel so can be sterilized and reused. Figure if things go south, these will be good to have on hand. ( https://amzn.to/43DIqpE )
