Every kid needs to be taught how to hunt and fish. They also need to be taught how to change a tire, and how to check the fluid levels of a car's engine. This idea goes for girls and boys.

Bring it on Mrs. Bill Clinton. We would like to see half of those Washington coconspirators be arrested, tried, convicted and sent to prison, along with you.

Did the counting stop after a water main break, and then car loads of mail-in ballots show up? You know like when Biden was "elected".
@LibFails
Yes, and they'll tweak their plan right up until it's time to count the votes. You know about 3AM after the water pipes burst, and the truck loads of mail in ballots arrive.
This is called Dragon Bamboo. It might be just what you need for a fence on our property line. There is a place in Pensacola that sells giant Bamboos- several types. Perfect for Mobile! And it is a clumping species. Gets 80' high and even flowers.... every 40 years!

I think most of us raised in Saraland, Alabama had one. We also had a clothes line, to dry the laundry. Just make sure you do not burn trash while mom had sheets on the line. 😉

Beach in 1970. There is no fat, tattooed, plastic, etc... There are no sunbeds, umbrellas and sunglasses, various creams... There are no cell phones, so people talk, and there are no white lines in the sky...There is nothing but everything!

This amazing foal was born with a patch by his mane that looks like another horse. The pattern is such a work of art that the foal's owners have called him Da Vinci, or Vinny for short.

This is how a dog that after one shift of work searching through the ruins in Turkey found 10 people and saved their lives. Technology is advancing, but the smell detectors that these creatures have are still not invented by modern technology.

The truth of the matter is that gun owners tend to recognize that no people become enslaved unless they’re disarmed. No genocide happens unless people are disarmed. Atrocities which shock the world only happen to disarmed societies.
We Americans have decided that won’t be us.
Jessica Simpson, then 25, had that role in the 2005 movie (photo) She frequently wore her "Daisy Duke shorts."
From 2001 through 2011, Simpson spent every Thanksgiving and Christmas on tour with the USO. No living celebrity can match her record number of USO appearances.
This might explain why some of the "disagreements" occur on Twitter.

"Under President Trump, job openings outnumber the unemployed for the first time on record." I guess Americans feel better about their country than they have in many years.
Vietnam Vets and their families know what this is about. There is about a dozen of my high school classmates in that 58,749. Satsuma High School, Alabama.

I love them. A country boy ate what mom put on the supper table. I also enjoyed the food in the Navy as an crewman on those Aircraft Carriers. I even liked the food in Navy boot camp at the GLNTC, and at AO "A" school at NTCJAX, Florida.

When you see something like this, don't be afraid, don't call the firefighters or the police, don't move and don't kill them.
These are just bees traveling and stopping for just 24 hrs.
Don't disturb them and avoid getting close to them, they won't hurt you.
Rolling Thunder Washington, DC, Inc., remembers the service and sacrifice of Marine Private First Class Dan Bullock (December 21, 1953 - June 7, 1969), the youngest American serviceman killed in action (KIA) during the Vietnam War.
He was 15 years old.
Thank you for your service
Advice from An Old Farmer
Your fences need to be horse-high, pig-tight and bull-strong.
Keep skunks and bankers at a distance.
Life is simpler when you plow around the stump.
A bumble bee is considerably faster than a John Deere tractor. ...
