    Oddly enough I’ve never thought of Madison as being “down south”.
    Perspective changes everything!

    Sounds like a good opportunity to have more funds in a Roth IRA/401k or emergency fund.

    ...there, that should even out some points of the financial influence awards.

    When the markets collapse and they digitize the dollar and control the accounts....

    Long travel will still be on the truck.

    When that happens, it’ll be back to the barter system so you better stock up now on items people will want in the future

    What would be more useful for barter, .22, .556, 9mm, a different caliber?

    I got to play in the -70° freezer for about 20 minutes today. Which, incidentally, is about the time it takes to go from being fascinated by how cold it is to being ready to get the fuck out of there! I had to climb off the scissor lift to get the door, and the soles of my shoes were frozen stiff! The -10° freezer felt warm after being in there.

    Man, I feel so bad for my truck when it's this cold out. It makes a sound like a bad Ford power steering pump between 1 and 4 seconds when initially started and after that goes away it still remains less than happy sounding :pout:
