Speaking of manure, there was a recent talk and another scheduled about using Class A Bio-Solids for home landscaping and gardening. It seems the local waste water treatment facility is qualified by state and federal authorities to allow their finished output to be used in gardens.

Jim, they have been doing that for years here. Look up Tagro.

Ditto that. One corner of a table is designated the recycle bin in box. Anything there goes out when one of us (me) does.

Right there with ya. Started getting political texts about 2 weeks ago. Really frosted about that. That crosses a line with me that automatically gets a no-vote from me.

Maybe someone should get the environmentalist after them for wasting paper. It's bad enough to go to the box store and buy a box of nails and get a receipt a foot long with games and surveys on it.

LOL, I stopped into Denny's for lunch yesterday. The receipt was at least a foot long.

I actually text back and tell them that they lost my vote by texting me. A friend that is on the Democratic State Committee told me that pushback from unwanted texts was an agenda item for discussion a few weeks ago.

It makes me wonder what these people are thinking. Their bombardment approach seems to turn some people off. Are there people who actaully like to get loads of junk mail?
Give your eddress out and you may find your account so full of spam it is next to unusable. One of my old eddresses is now used for online companies that tend to render an abundance of spam. It is amazing that some companies seem to have a sale going on a daily basis. My interest would be sparked more by seeing an ad once a week or month instead of sometimes twice a day.
Here is yesterday's batch of mostly junk email with one that arrives early everyday included from today:

A constant bombardment trying to convince me to buy something or send money is something that will soon be easily ignored if it doesn't appeal to my daily reading.

Zoo Do used to be a thing. It is manure and stable sweeping from a zoo to add to your garden. Tiger poop is rumored to keep the deer away from your garden.

Tiger poop will certainly keep me away from your garden.
Saturday I had someone on my porch stumping for her sister who is running for city council. My dog barked at her like he was going to bite her. Sometimes when I walk him he does his duty on lawn campaign signs.
Good dog!
No toxic texts from politicians for me but the mailings and emails continue unabated. Especially the emails. Won't someone think of the electrons?

Meta-off-topic question: is Harbor Freight ever not having a sale?
Yoga class makes me feel like a total stud, mostly because I'm about as flexible as a 2x4.
"Design"? Possibly. "Intelligent"? Sure doesn't look like it from this angle.

In my MIL's town there was a dollar store, a 99cent store and a 98cent store. When we went to the dollar store we bragged we were going to the high class store and throwing money away.
