As if Baymules, Texas update weren't bad enough, disaster is heading for Minot, North Dakota. Due to excessive rains and snowmelt the Souris River is expected to bring the worst floods to Minot since 1881 and break that old record...!! Thousands of people are under mandatory evacuation orders...

I'm counting my blessings after reading what Minot, N.D. is expecting.Snowmelt and rains are flooding the Souris River.Officials are saying they are expecting the record flooding of 1881 to be broken.Thousands of homes are expected to be flooded, as several thousand people are to evacuate by...

I do the same thing as Bubblingbrooks, that is i still buy TP but,much less.Of course alot of folks wouldn't care for the idea but, soft green leaves in a summer breeze work pretty good for wiping.lol I use my bathroom & TP more in the cold winter , than the warmer season. I have also used...

I'd love to find folks with fresh goats milk,cheese and toilet paper to barter with.Not alot of folks have dairy goats near me and no paper mills.I know i can still find more barterers though if i look.Each yr i try to increase my garlic production and plant more asparagus, because their is such...

Bartering has always been around, all over the world, all through time. It's growing again as inflation is rearing its ugly head, and people want closer to home local food and goods.I'm seeing a big increase locally of people networking in bartering/trade for services..I'm only a backyard hen...

I'm a big believer of bartering.Perhaps some would like to share what goods/services yu do for barter.I'm in a little bit of a position now where i'm producing extra asparagus, garlic, blueberrie, honey and eggs ...I keep and use more than enough,but usaually have a good amount of extra.I...

I think thats where you'll see the real savings RTR, makes sense if you have the pasture availbile to raise a steer.Of course if you butcher a wrap yourself, you'll really save..! Out with the horse, in with the steer...lol Poor horse, hope you find the ole' boy/girl a good home.

I like what you said LTSL, as i mentioned the same thing, their are tons of good kids and parents out there doing right. Some how though,i don't think the kids involved in violent mob flashing would be interested in you trying to make a difference in theirs lives.That is a great thing to do...

It's true that gangs, bad parenting and misguided kids have been around for a long time...Flash mobbing, is a newer thing directly associated with new age tecnology...Children today are very tech savoy, and certainly can be in touch with a group of others in quick time, to organize/meet or...

Good luck with your bees hiker...:) Another thing i have, i forgot to mention, is tons of duct tape.....It amazing how useful it is for a quick fix of alot of things...!

I don't think what you said is negative or arguing either missthenorth. Ahhhh, i didn't say all kids were doing what were discussing,its good you know what yours are up to.I think its great your children have the oppurtunity to choose from several jobs, how fortunate in this economic...

I think what you've said about parenting is pretty much true, Hillfarm..I also think when teens get to wilding, parental influence can wane, you know the peer pressure thing.We also can't deny that the quick, new tech. communications out there aren't playing a part.I think all these things of...

It's something everyone has to be concerned with these days.Unless you live in a bubble.It's happening in rural areas and inner cities.Young groups of people using Youtube for "Flash Mobbing" AKA "Mob Robbery"....Technology has come a long way, but this use, is not a good thing.Groups of youth...
