Congrats on the new tractor. [I need to paint ours and make it a front acreage planter!] I hadn't heard the "communist" threat in a long time. Personally, Upton Sinclair (of "The Jungle") stated is what I think will be a reflection of the uber-patriot/theocratic reaction to an alleged breadown...

J-BC: yes - I like to take the information and try to apply it ASAP, otherwise my aging mind tends to leak details! My "see one" seems to work better if it is in person, although I can usually figure it out from a video (which is more frequently the medium as it is hard to get a teacher!). My...

Fascinating how we all learn differently. I like the, "see one, do one, teach one", approach. Reading first helps me to get a theoretical background to the skill, then visualizing it via video. First attempts at replication are sort of clumsy, but with each successive try you get better. It's...

It can happen anywhere, anytime - sure, but that is the straw man argument of disproportionate measure. You took a line of sarcasm and made it into a non sequitur, a "subjective probability" (although the Manitoba reference was a spot-on humor response. I liked that.) Each generation's...

I stopped statins as they really didnt work, made me feel sore in my legs - so I had to do something. I added Red Yeast Rice to my daily intake and my TG's dropped 400 points - not changing my diet! I also take Allicin (Garlic), long used in Europe to decrease cholesterol. I enjoy bacon (from...

Sorry - didn't mean to upset. It was my read on what modern media has turned us into - a quivering mass of fearful populace knowing of dangers that will never touch us. I think every generation has tried to be prepared for the worst, but over-preparing for what will never happen is what the...

BTW, Lenin's first name was, "Vladimir". Brezhnev's was "Leonid."

Knightmare: Apparently you suffer from terminal uniqueness, assessing our current national reality in realm of just your understanding, as if we live in the worst time ever. I would point you to "Tuchman's Law": "The fact of being reported multiplies the apparent extent of any deplorable...
