Canned more tomatoes. Sigh.
Next week a hog goes over the rainbow bridge and I will be cutting and wrapping and curing bacon and ham. Looking forward to making some breakfast sausage.
Let no good deed go unpunished.
Just added three more hens, white Leghorns. So now I will have both white and brown eggs.

Nice. We just have Isa Browns. Sure is nice having farm eggs though isn't it? So vastly superior to the commercial stuff. My wife just about had a stroke when she saw they were bar coding eggs now in some stores. Who would have thought it would come to this........... it's just wrong. 😉

Barcoding individual eggs?
Barcoding individual eggs?
Does the chicken have a stamp in it's ass for when the egg goes by?
And does it actually fall out of it's ass or does a hen also have a woohoo from which said egg is deposited? These are things I have not considered before as we did not have chickens except when I was quite young 😳
I know, hard to believe. My wife's jaw dropped when she opened the foam egg carton to check and see that the eggs were intact and saw the individual bar codes on the eggs. Big brother run amuck.............. 1984 is truly here. We needed a bunch of eggs for cooking some items for a gathering we were attending, more than we had on hand at home. That was why we looked at the store eggs and saw how far our society has plummeted.

switch normal eggs for BIO ones in the pack would be a reason to bar code individual eggs
Added an m14 rifle to my collection 😎
An unarmed man can only flee from evil, and evil is not overcome by fleeing from it.
Added another old book to my collection that I'm reading now on steam boilers and their uses. There is a lot more to it than I thought. :geek:

A Steam engine engineering book, Chug, chug chug, woo woo
"We 'Prep.' to live after a downfall, Not just to survive."
What's the name of this book... I surveyed Amazon and was overwhelmed by the large number of books on steam but most related to modern steam engineering. I'm wondering if anyone's seen one on basic principles and applications?
Bought a 5.5W solar panel from CT on sale for a new project. The 15W units are on sale too at 50% off.
