A Blast from the Past - Marjory Wildcraft and Robert Kiyosaki (Rich Dad, Poor Dad)
OK, finally got these uploaded! So you might know that at one point in my life I was a professional investor. Years before he was famous for "Rich Dad, Poor Dad", I studied with Robert Kiyosaki. Robert is quite amazing. I won't say I agree with everything he teaches... but he sure helped me understand a lot about…

Where do you want to move?
Considering the discussions had on here in the last 6 months, I figured some of you might want to see this map (and article). It is quite interesting.

"Science club" & more :(
I had heard bits and pieces about something spread over Winnipeg (the capital city in my province) in the past. Here is a real article to back it up with more information. The lie was that it was to protect people...and they did it more than once. What made me take special note in light of the situation that is today, is…

ALERT: Contaminants in medications causing DNA damage
Safe drugs aren't always safe like they want to claim. Most folks here are well aware of this fact. They are always an experiment usually with unknowns that are discovered sometimes a decade or two later. This is a common practice in the system. I bet there are a lot more "safe" meds being used with unknown consequences.…

Seed Sale
Renees Garden has 50% off their 2021 stock right now. Shipping isn’t free, but the only hybrid seeds I buy are from them, and they are amazing. Their pizza-my-heart peppers are to die for, and the tasty green cucumbers I’ve been buying from Kitazawa are sold by them as well. Nice to stock up/ refresh because some of my…

Toxic "forever chemicals" found in home fertilizers and vegetables
So glad to see the Sierra Club is bringing this to the forefront. I've posted about bio-sludge before - I recently bought some "organic" compost and only from direct follow up with the manufacturer did I discover it was mostly bio-sludge. The really sad thing is I know of a local "organic" farmer who uses this and actually…

Stock silver now!
For those who have a little they can spare, now would be a very good time to purchase a few ounces of silver coins to use as future money. The silver community known as Wall Street Silver is planning another massive raid on the supplies of retail silver bars and coins, as well as purchasing massive shares in the PSLV ETF,…

Bio-barcodes to be sprayed on food to track romaine lettuce (and more)
OK, life is starting to happen really fast. This company is using microbes as tracking devices. They convert digital data into strands of DNA, insert that bit of DNA into a micro organism (uh, they are calling these organisms "probiotics"), and then they can spray this onto any food or ag product. They engineer this into a…

Local plant nurseries closing
Two local nurseries, including the one where I usually buy tomato starts, have closed and the land on which they sit is for sale. One of them is right around the corner from my home garden, and has always done a thriving business in the past. I assume that the COVID economy hurt these businesses, despite all the gardening…

Every American family basically pays an $8,000 'poll tax' under the U.S. health system
"Despite paying $8,000 more a year than anyone else, American families do not have better health outcomes, the economists argue. Life expectancy in the United States is lower than in Europe. 'We can brag we have the most expensive health care. We can also now brag that it delivers the worst health of any rich country,'…

Earth Day 2021
Thursday 4/22/21 is Earth Day and even though I am back to working full-time I am going to try to get outside before work, during lunch and/or after work. Right now I am planning on trimming some of my roses, preparing some buckets and beds for more vegetables but mostly just enjoy the beauty of Nature. Are you planning on…

Stock Market Insanity!
Anyone else keeping up with the shenanigans in the stock market, where the hedge funds tried to short some stocks (and kill some companies) and people are revolting by buying up said stocks?

What clothes are you wearing today? Plants? Animals? Synthetics? What does it mean for the planet?
Apparently the clothing industry is right after the oil industry for the carbon footprint. Today I went online to buy some clothes for the first time in a long while and found this article: Even before knowing fully the impact of the fashion industry, I'd already turned to RESALE. One good shop I've found: Where do you…

First Day of Spring in the USA
Saturday March 20th is the first day of Spring and I am planning on playing in the garden by prepping more beds for vegetables! It is supposed to be a bit cooler than it has this week and there is a 20% chance of sprinkles but I still cannot let the first day of Spring go by without being outside. 😊 Do you have any plans…

Mid North Coast Australia on flood alert!
During the last 3 days on New South Wales(NSW) mid north coast, we’ve had an east coast low settle in and dump large amounts of rainfall on an already very wet landscape. Up to 500mm has been dumped in some areas causing mass flooding, evacuations and mayhem. We’ve been a tad lucky only 200mm in that time, we are very…

Weather Woes (Current Events) Feb. 2021
What a February! I am in southwest Mo. and this has been a record breaking winter storm for us here. I did Ok. I did have some frozen pipes one morning but they thawed without bursting. My wood stove went wacky but it turns out I just need a new door gasket, which is on it's way. I do have electric backup and some how my…

Please send love and prayers to Doc Jones
All of us deeply love and appreciate Doc Jones and I recently read he is headed into brain surgery - today I think. I'm sure his wife Lori will tell you he is hard headed and removing a few layers of that thick skull is a good thing... but seriously. Here is a wonderful blog post Doc wrote about how an experienced…

Secret Agent Vacuum!
So I have to admit, I always thought roombas (robot vacuum cleaners to those unfamiliar) were in the pointless-but-harmless category. I mean, as long as your not doing anything illegal or immoral, who am I to object to how you clean your house? After reading the following however, I decided they were not so harmless. In…

Living on locally sourced food in the Yukon for 1 yr.
Yes. Someone did a documentary on this. Their experiment was only a year. They actually made their own cheese (yes, a bit of sarcasm). Yet, it sounds like they went back to their every day life. I was kind of disappointed in that & not impressed, obviously. So many people know these skills and don't just source things from…

Fires in the Western U.S.
How is everyone fairing in light of Fires?? I have multiple fires to the North, South and East of me. I’m only 1/2 mile off the ocean. All of my places of safety would be on the other side of these fires. The skies have been dark orange and eerie all day, the air thick with smoke. The wind gusting at 25 mph after 80 mph…
