Eventually that stupidity ended but today’s stupidity looks far worse … Continue reading →

Today we discuss a concept that is very old to me merged with a term that is brand new to me.  It is called Rebel Canning.  Rebel Canners are communities of people using traditional canning methods that gasp, ignore many recommendations by the USDA for canning.  These people however are not adult children.  The spirit in these groups is not I won’t do what you say simply because I want to be a rebel.  More I am a rebel because I can think for myself and your rules do not really make sense at all. But how could the USDA … Continue reading →

You are the master of your own life and if you don’t agree with my views, great, define, understand … Continue reading →

Well the truth is these are 10 life skills we should be teaching every child and many adults who never learned. them.  I have done shows like this before but I want to come at it from a slightly different angle today.  More along the lines of the process behind the skills.  In other words you can teach someone to cook but showing them how a stove and a knife works and giving them recipes.  That is basic technique teaching.

Sadly a component of the “sovereign citizen movement” have actually ruined the word, “sovereign citizen”.  While many in the movement are peaceful and tend to operate via turning the state unto itself via the courts, enough idiots have committed acts of violence under the phrase to widely ruin what it was supposed to mean.
