CannaGranny’s Corner a Thread For General BS and Good Will On BudBuilders

Mornin Yiz Menz!
Fantastic climb Ninja! Gorgeous scenery too, thanks for sharing with us!
Mornin Steamy, it’s hump day, Friday is on the way!
Morning @Tremojem ! I would never give up the peace and solitude for convenience for sure. This morning the only sound around me is the wind and the birds singing.
@Stoneyluv , no worries I have local grocery stores I can get bananas from. I just do all the major shopping four times a year, but I do visit my local grocery stores at least once a month. Small stuff, fruit, bread when it gets too hot to bake and milk..stuff like that. Saves me tons of money to shop like this. We go to a grocery warehouse where this cost is ten percent above what the grocery store paid for it. It’s huge, takes a lot of time and I have to bag and load all of my own stuff. Getting home with it all, unloaded and put away is a chore! How did the wine turn out?
We are getting ready here, maybe should be building an ark! 9-12” of rain over the next few days. My place don’t flood, but all the major roads around us do. Just had a two hundred gallon gas tank set for my generator so I suspect we are as ready as we can be.

Currently when I go, I spend 400-600. But that’s not the entirety of the cost as I buy all of my meat fresh from the Amish and local farmers. Now, I can go into my local store and spend a 100.00 and may come out with three bags! Can’t walk in there for less than fifty! Living in a tourist town does not help either. Garden time saves considerably too.
Good job on the Vino!
 
Good Morning CannaGranny. Love that your song this morning was birds and a breeze. Now that's music to my ears.

Stay dry and thumbs up on the 100 gl tank.

I have to upgrade my generator. Just not ready to part with my cash. Plus I am waiting for a better economic outlook and really don't want to feed the ass hat orange clowns economy, which like him, is a failure from conception.
 
Our news is saying record flash flooding in a pretty large section of the Midwest into the Ohio valley.

Everyone in that area please take care and keep an eye on runoff levels, streams and rivers.

No worries. My place does not flood, what happens is all the roads in and out do. No problem, I’ll just stay home til it runs down.

Wouldn’t be no other choice unless you left before it floods. Which I doubt you would do. High ground is a good place to live. I live on top a mountain so if it ever floods the planet is in big trouble, lol.

But wait...it wasn't a tripod with a digital camera that was remotely controlled, taking stills at a rate of 1000 frames per second...or some crazy frame rate. Isn't that round traveling faster than the speed of sound?

I am ignorant to weaponry but I am so very interested in the science and engineering of it all. I like weaponry and my wife and I always wanted to skeet shoot and legally own pistols and go to range, but just never pursued it. Now wishing we had. I am confident someone is chuckling over my ignorant use of the word "weaponry".

Early in my career, I met and worked with a gunsmith. He was so interesting. He worked in a fabrication/machine shop. He was the highest ranking and most respected gentleman in the shop. Any project of mine that demanded his level of precision and craftsmanship, was assigned to him. Cool guy cool science, cool engineering.

According to my chronograph I’m pushing 3025’ feet per second. If that gives you an idea about a dasher also called a six mm. 🙂
 
On a side note...

My city just had a successful "Hands Off" peaceful protest. It was sponsored by our local Civil Liberties Union. We are not a big city by any measure, but we were over 4000 strong.

Just to be in that crowd with that amount of positive energy was amazing. It erased the last few days of anger and despair and replaced it with hope.

Home now...getting lit. lol
 
Hey, I'm not into politics at all, no party affiliations. This Usa tariff sht even hits me at the gym. talking to a guy today I talked about my favorite local store and getting strawberries for $2.99 and he said where did they come from Usa? ah I don't know I don't care, I'm not letting media hype and bullshit dictate what I buy and from where it came from.

Went to the same store after gym and they had the same strawberries and they are from California. I bought 2 packs but for the first time I looked at the location they came from and I had to think....Buy Canadian they say up here now??? Strawberries in Canada in April??? lol does that make me a bad canuck??? lol...probably...do I care???? ....lol...not fkin likely. There ain't no strawberries grown up here in April whats a guy that likes strawberries supposed to do?

Ya, If there was a pack of Canadian berries at $2.99 and a pack of Usa berries along side at $2.99 I'd buy Canadian if the berries were comparable if not I'm getting the best berries. Its all a ...(edit media driven ) manipulative game I don't want to play.
 
19.6” of rain here in the past three days. Catastrophic flooding. Still holding my hill down on gen power. Saying it will be a few days until we get power back.
Up all night just sick with worry over a missing friend. I called the hwy patrol rescue number, they can’t get close enough to tell her car is gone. This was even more worrisome knowing she was blocked in every direction, no one had heard from her. This morning the patrol was calling wanting info that tied my guts in a knot. Her description, if she had any marks or tattoos that would identify her. At this point I am tore to the ground. She has been my best friend for over 35 years. I know they are suggesting that she has been washed away, car and all.
My heart is broken and my guts are in knots. Finally round noon, they called and had made contact. She had took her car to a higher spot and walked back to the house, and was at her house. Thank you Jesus! Right?
What a hell of a day. I’m ready for a joint as long as my legs! Maybe even a sip of that Canadian Whiskey 🥃 tarrifs and all!
I went along with the blues way of doing things for four years. I still supported my country and I will for the next four. I am first an American. 🇺🇸 I’d buy strawberries from Canada in a damn heart beat.
 
Glad you and your friend are OK Granny~!
Smoke 2 and skip the whiskey. Booze thing not nation thing.
I have lived through every shitty bunch of corruptions elected since my birth.
This one won't be the one to get me, especially after the last asshat.
But fuck the gov't and a piece of advice for all who truly seek improvement;
if you recognize the name vote for someone else.
They have all had more than enough chances.
All they end up giving us is excuses.
At our expense.

The US imported about 2 million tonnes of Canadian NBSK last year, highlighting the how much American paper-goods producers rely on pulp from their northern neighbour.

“Some of these mills in the United States, some of the big branded products, not only want softwood pulp from Canada, they want softwood pulp from this particular mill — they’ve been using it for 30 years and they will not change," McClay told The Financial Post. “If Canadian pulp mills close because they don’t have the fibre supply, I can’t think of any other option for them — they just can’t switch the recipe around," he said.

Not what’s being told here. It’s to the point you don’t know who to believe. Really don’t care. If it’s Canadian or Mexican whatever if I need it, I’m buying it. After what we have paid for goods here for the last four years, it’s no shock.
