I came to think of my Mom's childhood and how her parents my grandma and grandpa used these rationing brands during WWII.

It came to me as I was thinking about what we have discussed here-Global famine.

So who knows maybe we once again has to use these rationing brands for a while.

I have several ration stamp booklets I found in my grandpa's house. Reading through some old 40's letters he got a letter about someone trying to get some used tires. Took a bit but then realized they couldn't find any new ones for sale.

Yea, I have a herd that comes in my yard every night and while they're sort of pets, they can quickly become meals.

Same here. I don't hunt (Don't deny others that right nor want to stop them).
But if it comes down to it? Bambi meets the new Oven!
.50 cal Silenced Air Gun? No one hears the shot!

Following was posted on FB yesterday by a Danish politician

Quote:

Good news!
Fighter jets and no-fly zones may be on their way to Ukraine!
Politicians reject - but have heard from my think tank friends in Washington DC - Biden's foreign minister, Antony Blinken, is actively trying to meet Ukraine's request for a flight ban and more fighter jets by getting Poland to supply fighter jets to Ukraine.
Ukraine's military has largely relied on ground-to-air missiles until now. Ukrainian President Zelensky has this weekend begged and asked for help e.g. by sending fighter jets that Ukrainian pilots can already fly. Poland has them.
Heard that Biden and Blinken under great pressure from Congress, but about 74% of Americans - both Republicans and Democrats - said in opinion polls that the United States and NATO should introduce a no-fly zone in Ukraine. Still believe in it!
Understand well people are worried or scared. I'm worried myself. But I do not believe Putin wants a direct confrontation with the West as a whole. Then he is completely done.
Putin must be stopped now. Europe knows all about what happens to idiots who are not stopped in time.
Some of it is old news by now-Poland has send their old MIG 29 to Ukraine.

I have a farm in the mountains and sometimes see a few, but my house in town backs up to a good bit of woods and we have about 20 deer that just roam around like pets to everyone in the hood. Can't shoot in city limits, but legal to use a bow or crossbow to hunt deer.

Be a smart idea for everyone to plant a big vegetable garden this spring.

Only because it's in alphabetical order.

Saw this today. Don't know how accurate it is but it claims to be the key to the letter markings on Sovi,... I mean Russian vehicles.



The Letter “V” represents the Russian Marines

The Letter “Z” represents units in the Eastern Military District

The Letter “Z” in a square represents the Southern Military District (Crimea) The Letter “O” represents units from Belarus

The Letter “X” represents the forces of Ramzan Kadyrov, the Putin installed warlord of Russia’s Chechnya region.

The Letter “A” represents Russian Special Forces(SSO) like Spetznaz in its various operational units.
