I was visiting a friend's church one day some years ago when I was stationed in California. On the wall was a very small needlepoint picture of Noah's Ark. Below the picture was a caption that "struck me to the very depth of my soul"! The caption read: "It wasn't raining when Noah Built the...

Actually, I do think it is OK to use topically. It is astounding how fast a contusion will re-absorb after using that. The reason the breath stinks is that the transit time is so rapid. It transits through the body very rapidly so that in a very short time you taste it after putting in on your...

There can be several explanations for this but the most logical might be to look at how you are handling milk. Human skin is notoriously covered with bacteria and if not cleaned will contaminate everything in its path. Even washing one's hands can not prevent contamination entirely. Here is what...

From a surgical perspective (and I do have some "credibility" in that area) a vasectomy is a very simple surgical procedure which can be done "in the office" rather than the Operating room. The anesthetic is a local and the recovery time is minimal. Tubal ligation is a "much bigger deal"...

Currently, DMSO is what is being used for IC. You can get it at the vet supply. It is "instilled" not consumed so you may want to be more properly trained for that... rhoda_bruce can attest to that.

And this surprises you because....? :lau

OK, so I LOVE my new tractor. It has some really interesting differences from the other one, but it can do some pretty cool things. I got the drain tile buried in no time at all. Turns out I dug about a 24" trench with about 2 scoops...much easier and more powerful than the other trencher I had...

Nice work here. This particular post is succinct and attainable. The volumes are within reach of even the smallest apartment. It may be "boring" but life can continue in a normal manner this way. Great post! Trim sends

Well, according to the maps, I am about 411 miles from Williston, ND. I am 11 miles south of the ND/SD border. I agree with wooddustmaker's assessment. Buying is cheaper than renting for many reasons. While we are about 7 hours away from there, we are able to help in some ways. Feel free to...

Before I got into a "voiding contest" with FarmerChick, I did make a statement regarding the difference between "Surviving" and "Living". I stick by that. Surviving is a normal short term approach to an abnormal set of circumstances, be they catastrophic on the planetary scale or regionally...

No, actually I see the "national problem" quite clearly. Currently, there are 11 states with more people on the welfare rolls, (on the dole as they say in the UK) that there are working people paying for the dole. The math is quite simple. There has been a systematic process to create this...

The beans are in. Next is the corn. Then it will be over for a few months until the spring planting. Riding in the combine is a very emotional experience for me. It represents another year of life that has passed. It just keeps going on. I do notice some stiff times and on occasion find a...

I stick by this statement. It comes from the basic scientific truths of human physiology, not the "new facts gleaned from the geniuses on the internet who have more time on their hands than education in their heads. There is a distinct difference between facts and truth. Knowing that alone puts...

In the past, (and I do mean past) the wages of certain craftsmen were "corn, wine and oil". Salt was similarly precious. Moolie mentioned the "Mormons" and their approach. Apparently, this style of living is how she was raised so this is nothing new for her, but for many in this nation, the...

The first two pigs I had were a male and a female. the male had been castrated and was rather docile. To tell the truth they were both very pleasant animals, and I kind of felt bad about the day I sent them off to the butcher. I sold one to a friend whose wife said it was the best pork she had...

So the world just keeps on turning, turning, turning... Buddy came through it OK. He was rather subdued and seemed a bit depressed last night when he got home, but that got him a bunch more affection which he seemed to appreciate. Today, he was much more "himself" and there didn't seem to be...

The last week or so has been productive. I hesitate to use the word "busy" as I read an article stating that the word "busy" is a "toxic" term or some such concept. At any rate, I have been working as usual and on top of that cleaning up the farm and getting ready for winter which from the...

Apparently, I will have to read Ms. Tuchman's book before I comment further on that portion of your response. Admittedly since the mainstream media tends to report everything that happens from as many places as possible, (never failing to emphasize the quantity of fatalities), as quickly as they...

O, that's right. It can't happen here. It can't happen in this time. I'll bet the folks who survived the halocaust thought that too! But then I thought the PC camps were in Manitoba rather than Alberta. Better add some antennae to your hat...it will help with the reception.

Ok, so you think I should get a say on this journal,huh? Thank you! The rocket heater is now built and working! The burn tests have all improved with each stage of the build. The details and some pics will be forth coming. I have to remember how to upload pics. This thing gets really hot. In...
