Yep, the more electronic we go, the more control the evil side has over us. Playing right into their game plan. Just wait till the chip on your credit card now will be in your hand……
Got rid of mine this week.

Just think, it will be the answer to all our problems.

No more cash weighing you down.

The chip will provide Instant ID, instant medical information in case of an accident, the end of illegal drug trade, gambling, and prostitution.

Man, Nirvana is just a chip away.

And you can pay for your fancy meal of bug proteins by just waving your hand.

I just can't wait! :sunglasses:

Yep. They will know EVERY SINGLE THING you buy, sell, trade, pills you take, and when you buy unhealthy food like donuts or cigarettes so they can notify your health insurance provider to jack your rates up. Accept the future they said, it’ll be fun they said….
Now cows so no cow farts. No steak or burgers or pork chops, just pills and nasty disgusting powders. I’m glad I was born when I was but I worry about what my son and grand kids are going to see.

I wouldn't be surprised if they eventually started doing that here and they already did with certain gun videos. I had several videos on building ARs saved and over the years noticed most are gone. The probably demonetized the Youtuber because a few others were still there.
I had that same experience. I had a really good in depth one saved on my playlist since 2016 and it just says deleted video or video removed where it used to be. Stupid. You can shoot but they can’t show dissemble or assembly. Yet you can get surplus manuals on all sorts of US army and guerilla warfare tactics for next to nothing and perfectly legal.

More importantly, if you remove it like I did, you’ll stop getting ads like this on Ranger5g……

Well, that and after you clear your cache and browser history. ;)

* Yes, that’s an actual ad.

Tracy, I’ve always marveled at your wide open, level lot, but I can’t help but think how pretty your yard looks with that dusting of snow on the ground and in the trees. 👌
I really love seeing the snow falling and piling up.
As long as it’s 300 miles away and not in my yard.

Awesome. You just might have some fun yet!
Nothing like drifting in an empty parking lot or deserted streets! Taught my daughter how to handle skids and winter roads that way. Now she does it for fun like I always have! Learning how to drive in north Idaho has some advantages.

The best teachers that I have as far as learning to drive are my Dad and my late Grandpa. Dad the former long haul trucker and Grandpa the WWII veteran and farmer.

I’ve paid money for pure bred Rottweilers and had some sort of trouble with every one of them. The best dogs that have ever owned me were mixed breeds all from shelters or stuck in bad situations. I volunteered to transport dogs between rescues for about five years up until the virus hit. I moved 429 dogs just over 30,000 miles and most of them were throw aways that were never treated right and just wanted someone to love and take care of them. Every one of them was very hard to let go at the end of the run. The last dog I adopted was a TWC and she was just two hours from the kill room when a friend pulled her just in time before her final walk. I had her for nine years and at 70 years old, I cried like a baby when I left her go due to health issues. She was my Princess.

My dad seemed to be able to drive anything and towed a lot of trailers. My grandpa was a long haul driver for Yellow freight retiring in 1977. Drove doubles from Flagstaff, AZ to Chicago and back. Never once had even a slide off. They gave "Million Mile" awards for no accidents. He had so many hats, jackets, belt buckles, tool sets, etc. All the grandkids had several! I had a little tool set and one of the belt buckles. As a result I love driving!

I asked her if she wanted to go out to check the snow depth again. Got this look and she declined
