I'll mention this just for effect; Nicotine has been proven effective in reducing the symptoms of long COVID. I can attest that during the worst of my COVID experience I felt more like living than dying after smoking a couple cigs. No kidding! And that horse dewormer from Tractor Supply (Ivermectin....or whatever it's called) is being used by some to treat what oncologist have diagnosed as "cancer of the bladder, kidney, and pancreas"......and it seems to be working far better than anything else. So it's actually possible/probable that many cases of what is diagnosed (and treated) as "cancer" is actually a parasitic infection, and not cancer at all. 🤔 Research it, it's true.

Nope, each individual should do whatever they truly believe will help, or is in their best interest. 👍 For me personally, the worst thing would be to suffer, and possibly die, because I believed someone else.....and the people that I believed were wrong.

You are mistaken if you assume that I haven't. 😔 I knew better than to share my personal thoughts & feelings about this here, because they seldom go over well. Those that know me well, and have for many years, understand. Sorry if the input of mine seemed abrasive or "stupid".

What, on this earth, would you consider to not be something from the earth ? 🤔

Healthcare is a racket. Probably 90% of people that claim to have "beaten cancer" never actually had cancer to begin with. And the fact that it has been accepted by the masses that smoking is so terrible for your health, just gives healthcare providers an easy-out. There is way too much money in TREATING cancer, diabetes, ect. The number of people that would be digging ditches or working as a cashier for minimum wage somewhere if it weren't for "cancer/diabetes treatment" would cripple the entire country. If a bonafide cure is out there they'd be stupid to use it. The root of all serious health problems is overpopulation......That is the fact that nobody wants to realize or talk about.

Even the new kid from the UK got his cherry popped 👍

It wouldn't let me read it... I get the gist of it though, and I'm surprisingly in favor of it as long as it doesn't stop there. I'd like to see hairspray, scented candles, 90% of pharmaceutical drugs, and lots of other potentially harmful elements on the chopping block as well 👍

I had one about that size hit the ground near me the other day. I put a boat cushion over my head and got under cover real quick like........but no other big ones fell nearby.

Herters listed it as a "fish trap". There's writing on it.....but my eyes can't focus on it well enough.

FIFY 😊👍

Have you ever seen one of these contraptions ? Here it is cocked and loaded

"To avoid problematic bear encounters.... Talk LOUDLY, Sing, and/or make plenty of NOISE whenever hiking, camping, or exploring nature". Great ! Thanks MDC, for encouraging more folks to get outdoors and stay rowdy. 🙄 Now, here's MY tip to avoid problematic bear encounters......... "12 ga. Slug, .30-30 or .30-06" 👍

How far would you have to walk to find lots of flowers 100,000 years ago ? And what kinda condition would they be in by the time you got back with them ? The best I could come up with, lacking a vehicle, is a handful of dandelions.

Personally I feel that funerals are a disgusting tradition. Whoever started that crap should have been institutionalized. Don't plan to come to mine..... because there will not be one.

I don't, sorry.

I haven't heard anyone, on behalf of MDC, say why, no. I have a hunch that they have stopped stocking Hybrids at Thomas Hill also. Long Branch got some 3-4 years ago but it appears to be just a one time thing. There was a stretch of the MO River near Booneville that was loaded with them several years ago.....No idea where they came from. I think Truman and one of the KC area lakes gets them all.

I doubt that MDC cares what I think..... But they have stopped planting hybrids here. Unlikely because of anything that I said 😅

Now it's screwed up in the OTHER direction 🙄

Spoonbill are right in line behind Asian Carp as far as I'm concerned. 🙄 I doubt that anyone would get upset about somebody carving one of them up.

So it appears that the COE, and the USGS provide those gauges just as a novelty. Kinda like our tornado sirens here in Gravois Mills. They go off everytime a dark cloud passes over, but the ONE TIME twin F-3's pummeled us......No siren. 🤷‍♂️

How long do you suppose it took to carve that paddle into a sawfish sword ? Kinda creative really. That person will make a good tattoo & piercing artist if they ever get to prison.

This can't be right.....Is it ?

I lived 58 years without knowing anything about Oak Mites......Then I got introduced to them, and have feared them ever since. To my knowledge there's nothing you can apply to yourself that can prevent getting eaten alive if you step into their area.

I think it would add a cool element to tournament fishing if culling had to be determined BEFORE you put a fish in the livewell. Once you put the fish in the box it has to be part of your limit. And once you add #5 you're done.

Oak mites are my personal least favorite insect.
