Greetings and Salutations!
Whelp… this weekends plans went out the window… que sera sera, whatever will be, will be. No worries… I mean I live in Florida, so it’s not like I’m going to be down and out for days on the rivers and oceans due to ‘cold weather’…

It is<\/strong> a wee bit of a bummer, but hey… I got plenty of things around here to keep me busy. Which is what happened last night. Dinner was the healthy choice again:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Tuna sammiches with onion and celery, spiced with a pinch of Aleppo Pepper on Publix Mountain Bread. The mayo is a EEVO based flavor, so no seed oils or crap in it (theoretically).

Whilst prepping the chow, I realized that I hadn’t marked the cans in the pantry. This is a no go for that station, as ALL the chow in the 2x pantries are marked for time and clarity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Month and year, and a letter “T” in case for whatever reason the label get ripped off. “C” for Chicken and y’all know the rest… dealer’s choice as to your preferences.

This way I can rotate the stock… not that the Tuna sticks around too long these days. We tend to eat a LOT of that on the current diet. The canned veggies and all the other ‘stuff’ get the same treatment, which is what I did last night instead of doing a blah-blah-blah w\/you guys and gals.

The stuff that I noticed that has the shortest shelf life is of course, the tomato sauces\/tomato based ‘stuff’ in general. It’s because of the acidity in the cans that causes it to go bad quicker… and like the Tuna, the tomater sauces don’t get to stick around too long due to regular consumption. It seems we go through a LOT of tomato sauces here…

Between chili and my ‘bottomless pot-o-sauce’ for the raviolis and sketties, I’d say it’s an exceptionally heavy amount we go through…

And I mean it’s something everyone<\/strong> should do if you’re stockpiling chow… especially canned goods. Insuring that your stockpiles are fresh and up-to-date is pretty important.

So that was last night… tonight?
Well… like I said, I’m just sort of irritated.
Got a case of the ass. I had to clean the comforter and sheets and all the bedding as the puppy had a minor ‘oopsie’ on the bed this AM… she managed to get into the bedroom, and woke me up… and I startled when I woke up… like jumped… which in turn made her go a lil bit of wee-wee on the bed… Just enough that warranted a “Hey… fuck it let’s wash everything<\/strong>” sort of moment…

Nothing too severe… just…. irritating….

And work at the People’s Glorious Tractor Factory, well… it actually goes well as a customer poasted a Goolag Review that I had gone ‘above and beyond’ which gives me a $100 bonus this pay period… I can’t be too upset with that right?

That’ll get me a Mickey D’s Large Extra Value Meal and about 10 gallons of gas, and a gallon of milk at current rates right?

Silver broke $50 today at 10am… first time for that ever<\/strong> and gold is on a rise too, closing at over $4k… Silver closed out at $49.43, but the metrics tell me that we’ll see a slide over the next week, depending on the oil situation, as well as some other socio-economic indicators…

I for one am watching the superconductor industry, which is a BIG part of silver’s gains as they need<\/strong> a shitpile of silver to make the Super C’s from my understanding.

And other than that, the Middle East?
Why haven’t we just gassed that whole fucking A.O.?
Sarin.
Lots and LOTS of Sarin.
Turn the place into a dead zone.
Let the corpses rot away, then clear it up, and call it a day.

KILL ALL OF THEM…
…and let <insert Deity of Choice> sort them out.

Be it the weird assed 110 Armed Street Shitter Elephant God or the Burrito Goblin’s Winged Serpent, the Blood Soaked People Eater Quetzalcoatl… even the Modern Born Again Christian Ted Nugent Looking Christ Figure… let he\/she\/it\/them sort that shit out IF ONLY<\/strong> to grant the rest of us normal folks some peace and quiet right?

Truly
I grow weary of some of the dumbassery I see on the regular.
And If -I’m-<\/strong> tired of it, I can only imagine how other feel.
Except NPCs
Because fuck those people.

OH! I do have a giveaway to whomever is interested.
I got 9 more 10-round AK Stripper Clips for reloading purposes. A neighbor hooked me up in trade with a few 30 round AK mags, and I ended up with the strippers after loading them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

They’re a wee bit dusty from sitting on the workbench, but still like new. Drop me a DM line to get them… first come, first serve. CountryOfBigness@proton.me I’ll box ’em up and get them out.

Then… let’s see…
Oh Yes!
Administrative Cuteness:<\/p>\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n

Found the lil guy on twitter in a Halloween Thread.
THAT made me smile…
Talk about teh cootness overload right?

Sometimes you need to smile.

Otherwise, I’m going to baikl as I’m doing an online webinare course tonight with Mike Shelby from Forward Observer on “Forming a Local Intel Cell” Link is https:\/\/forwardobserver.com\/intel-cell-webinar\/<\/a>

Not sure if you can get in, and it’s already started…
So far it’s pretty basic but I think a few of y’all are in the audience. Leastways I got a few folks who ‘shouted out’ to me as a known quantity.

So More Later
Big Country<\/p>\n\n\n
