    Funny you mentioned that.
    In one of the towns i worked in, there was a house directly downhill from a cemetery that was still on well water even though city water was available.
    People in the house were getting sick and the water was tested.
    They found a whole chemistry set of toxins in the well water including arsenic, Formaldehyde, mercury ,lead and a bunch of others. Bad shit indeed.

    When we were testing well water from the NH white mtns we were finding Uranium in the 200ppb range...That's insane, and by the math, has radioactive isotopes of uranium present at 5ppb...This is natural as granite has uranium in it and the well water sits there for decades in these large water deposits between the bedrock and it leaches into the water...They actually recommend you test your granite countertops with a geiger counter before install in case it contains a vein of uranium or thorium...and you're going to be hanging around that for years and prepping food and maybe sitting your coffee pot on it...

    My GY tires get me to and from an LE job regardless of Road conditions and that’s why I chose them before the BLM stuff started.

    people have become way too over sensitive to companies stances on issues and dismiss the performance of the product based on personal beliefs. GY came out and issued a statement against that slide that went viral.

    people just need to stop watching the fucking news and live their lives as they want and buy the products they want regardless of politics.

    I do understand that Goodyear put out a statement, my point still stands.

    Skating any political lines will get you time off. If you’re doing it- stop.

    Mowing the lawn doing some yard work to get it up to snuff so I can plant my clover seed this year and have a good growth before the winter and hopefully the spring mud swamp doesn't happen again in my front yard o_O

    Sitting around doing nothing Saturday enjoying the weather, family stuff Sunday someone bought a house. Sneaking into Mass.

    It would in theory be better in the spring but I want to try to contain the mud pit that was my front yard this spring, rhode island gets a lot more rain than snow compared to NH.

    I’ve been trying really hard to have a intellectual debate, guess any talk about what’s going on in our country is not ok to talk about. From what I gather, I should put my head down, not be informed, not give a rats ass what’s happening to the world my kids will have to live in, and some how live my life that is effected by all these things going on.

    Just don't do it on the internet. Political and religious shit always turns into a fuckshow, it has no other destination on the internet, no other possible outcome. I have at least 75k posts on forums for the past 20 years and even moderated a few and it's not even a question of if, it's just when. You can be informed and talk plenty but don't do it on the internet because it has no accountability or repercussions. People will treat each other terribly and they wouldn't in person. And I highly HIGHLY suggest not doing it on Facebook either!! That dumpster fire is part of the decline of our civilization, I am 100% certain of that. And if you disagree with me, then GFY!! (see what I mean)

    You ever run the trail around whitehall? Did it a few weeks ago and it was a pretty good trail run, 8ish miles. Think I'm going to do it again Saturday morning
