The shortage is not due to manufacturing, has to do with transporting, a lot of truckers refused delivery to high population areas. However it's only the cheap bastards who ran out because they refused to stock up when demand is low... and that goes for all necessary products. I very often see people at the check out buying one single roll of TP... they probably tear off just one sheet and use both sides. I can remember at the last part of WWll TP was in short supply, people used pages from Sears catalogues, the soft colorful tissue papers used to wrap fruit was considered luxury TP. And then people used schmatahs torn from old bed linen that they rinsed and laundered... there were no disposable diapers, neither any sanitary napkins (Kotex was born as wartime bandages) and tampons weren't invented, women used schmatahs that they laundered and hung on shower curtain rods... where do yoose think the term 'on the rag' came from... Growing up during a time when TP was in short supply all the time I learned to always keep well stocked, right now we must have 300 rolls of TP in stock. My wife grew up in Belize, they had no TP there at that time... then about 1982 Rose's factory came to be, but it was expensive so most Belizeans didn't use it for a long time. Actually TP is made from the pulp of a particular tropical rainforest tree because it dissolves readily. Before Roses people in the tropics used pieces of dried banana leaves. I visited Roses factory when it first opened, was a rather small operation at that time. They didn't call it toilet paper, was called bathroom tissue. https://www.gracekennedybelize.com/products/paper-products/ |

I use cheap washclothes for many things. Love them. I buy multi packs of cheap white ones for only a few dollars. Walmart sells them but those are kind of stiff. Target sells them and theirs are nice and soft. |

Sanitary napkins were in production in the early 1920s. Tampons came on the market during WW2. |

How ironic that John is promoting the use of psychedelic drugs while being the poster boy for drug abuse. |

So how do you know you're not hallucinating? That can be a problem with hallucinations. They can seem real. My most recent experience with hallucinations was in the ICU after heart surgery and I was heavily medicated for pain. There were gargoyles on the wall and I tried an experiment as I tried to figure out if my eyes were open or closed. I thought it seemed quite rational to assume that I would see few gargoyles if they were closed. It made sense at the time. It may or may not have been the same day I told the nurse about the white mouse that had escaped from the lab and was running in and out of the air duct on the ceiling. I could see him as plain as day and pointed him out to her, but she decided that maybe they should but back on my pain medication. |

Well, I got it started this morning at 9am. - 16oz bag of dry navy beans, soaked overnight then drained and rinsed. - added 8 cups water - one smoked ham hock (approx. 8oz weight) - one large carrot chopped - one large onion chopped - little bit of S&P - 2 bay leaves Skipped the celery this time as no grocery trip until tomorrow. I will use that next time though as celery is good for most soups, stews and even stuffing. I mentioned that I'd use an 8-quart pot. That was overkill so I switched to a 5-quart pot. Pretty full with a good 2 inches left - perfect size. I do thank you and all others that gave me ideas. This one is pretty basic but I will maybe get more creative with the next batch. I'll just wait and see how this turns out. > Since you are working with a ham hock you may need to beef up > the flavor with a little chicken concentrate(bullion) Are you saying that one ham hock might not be enough flavor? Well, I'll find out for myself in a few hours. I do have an unopened jar of powdered chicken bullion to use if needed. That I can add at the very end. Also...funny how you worded that: If the *HAM* flavor is not strong enough, I may need to *BEEF* up the flavor with a little *CHICKEN* bullion. |

Apparently some US states have different goose hunting seasons because some of the Canada geese are native to the area and some are passing through on migration. If I am not mistaken, the local seasons close during the migration so that only local birds will be harvested. |

All normal RFC nitpicking aside, no matter what you call them, everyone knows what you are talking about. Here in Virginia, hunters call geese "dinner" |

Sounds like he burnt his brains out early on in life and he's reduced to ideas like these: "They are "my people", people who seek to know things YOU (the normal people) refuse to see, or are unable to see" "I've just been playing "playing the game" all my life." "Magic is real, people!" Weak-willed people seem drawn to recreational drugs and then don't know when to stop. |
