    Has anyone lost faith in the media?

    SS people seem far more practical thinkers to me so I'm curious to hear opinions on the media. I've discovered I have lost the ability to get worried about things happening in the world (other than the economy collapsing and destruction of the environment, both of which are actualities.)...

    Need inexpensive ideas for a new sidewalk to the house

    Here's the existing path. It is broken all to bits. The concrete is only about an inch thick, so it should be easy to remove: I'd like to put some type of paver down, maybe with a nice pattern, but I don't own the kind of tools necessary to cut them up. Would also be nice to put something in...

    First cup of coffee from the new French Press!

    Ever had your confidence shaken about your SS lifestyle?

    Yesterday my neighbor came & told me that the new people down the road were tearing out their year old carpet to put down hardwood floors. He knows that I'm desperate to put carpet in because my own hardwood floors are old & crappy, this is an old house and when you lift up a floorboard there...
