GUEST POST from Don: Mini Cows! +
MINI COWS! + I’ve been impressed with miniature cows for a while. We don’t have enough land (live in the city, ya’ know). What is neat about mini cows is that they eat about 1/3 the grain or need ½ the pasture, but produce more milk or meat per acre than full-size cow breeds. Of course, being …

GUEST POST from Don: Recession Indicators??
RECESSION INDICATORS?? STOP! This post is not about recession. It is about WHY the indicators have failed and what the future holds. (I will say this: 3 in 5 Americans believe we are in a recession. They are not wrong, and they are not right. Recently a local investment advisor who is interviewed on a …

GUEST POST from Don: Relational Truths
RELATIONAL TRUTHS There is not a single “relational truth” which is true in every case or for everybody (at least I can’t think of one). If it is true more often than not then it may be worth thinking about and/or acting on. We all know one person who screwed up due to not realizing the truth, …

Quick Thrift Haul – August 22, 2024
While we were in Saginaw for Pete’s appointment yesterday we stopped at the VoA on Bay Road without anything in particular in mind, just because it is THERE, and so were we! But I found 3 great items, all of which I needed! First is this huge Gotham frying pan…and it is massive! Biggest one …

GUEST POST from Don: Charger Hogs
“CHARGER HOGS” Electric vehicles have gotten a bad rap…for good reason. They aren’t very good. We’ve had battery technology for over 100 years and yet we are precisely here. Even with recent advances they don’t get many miles per 20 minute “fill up” and they do other nasty things to their owners (like refusing to unlock the door …
