I definitely think that self sufficiency equals sustainability, for all the reasons that have already been stated.

Well now I know what I'm having for lunch today :drool

I'm terrible at meditation, I can never shut up my mind. The technique that works for me is to visualize my fantasy ultimate library room. I put all the things I want in it. Any stray thoughts, any worries, any things I don't want are misplaced books scattered around the room. I pick up the...

I have four acres that no one wants to stomp through, so I don't have these issues, but I share your sentiment, Dac. If I did have this problem...ask first, be nice to the critters and the land, and we're golden. Whooo boy though. Some of the stories on this thread...just whooo boy. You guys...

I don't know anything about Klamath Falls but it sounds rather enticing. I picture...well...waterfalls.

I plan on doing this to a dog that is causing me hassle. I like the greasy paint idea too :lol:

I hate the buy-more trap of the swiffer too, but I just use a washcloth on mine instead of the disposable thingies. With four doggins, daily swiffering is a must :P

lol, congrats. At least he was laughing. J gave me a very stereotypical male reaction (EEEEWWW!). So naturally, I tortured him with the (clean, brand new!) thing until he got over it. I'd leave it hidden in his desk, on top of his favorite novel...everywhere :clap

No one else wants a big slice of coconut cream? :(

Yeah, that one! I wouldn't want to...knit. I'm an epic failure at knitting. If the SHTF, I will trade my delicious chicken meat for socks.

Holy cow, what a hassle. When I read about a bird person ripping off another bird person, it almost makes me more offended than everyday sleazy people. I guess this site and BYC have made me expect more out of bird folks. I hope you get it resolved with no more headache :/

I also think there is a difference in judging and condemning. Any observation or opinion a person has is a judgement. You're not saying anyone is a bad person. I think kind, non-pushy guidance like what you're describing is the key to making positive change. There are many things I've learned...

Aw, I'm sorry your son has to deal with a bratty bully, glad it turned out ok. Kind of jealous about the peas. I love peas!

Also, a lot of the eggs and dairy that most of us gobble comes from our very own critters! They didn't take that into account. /totally justifying myself :P

7!?!?! :th I'm a planet killer too! There is no recycling here :(

I thought it was too, but I heard from a number of people that have one and have not had children. None of them were in the South, though. I asked my Nurse Practitioner that I see for GYN stuff, and she said she doesn't do them, but that there is no reason not to use them before children. It's...

You have to be careful with buckets, they can attract lolrus to your property. Anyway. Josh's dad was telling me about this very thing just the other day. He's a landscape architecht and very green thumbed. I was wanting to do tomatoes in buckets, and he said I could just put a few inches...

UTC, it was also none of my business to judge what you said. I was feeling positively pissy yesterday, and I'm sorry I was rude. Friends? :)

Ohhhh, and IUD! We just had a terminology malfunction. I wanted one, but see my above rant about the patriarchal doctors :he

Wildsky, that's what I was thinking too, I'm not familiar with the kind of coil that MP is talking about. Maybe it's an English thing?
