    I've been watching that one a little - like what I've seen, so may try and catch up on the episodes I missed.

    "Tundra Green - How Alaska Became America's Marijuana Capital" by Josh Kramer is an illustrated story about the history of marijuana use and marijuana legalization in Alaska. Look online for The Atlantic for December 10, 2014. www.theatlantic.com

    I worked only two summer seasons in Southeastern Alaska a long time ago, and I have never used marijuana, but I found the article interesting. Other people may want to see this.

    The boys are upstairs. My friend Lori came by right as my aunt and uncle were leaving. This is the fist time I've used the pano function on my new phone. Weird.

    I think you are just jinxed. I've fixed those twice TODAY. A couple of other times as well. We might have to start sneaking up on them.

    For sale. What seems to be a stainless steel knife, Blade is very dull and will need sharpened. Very practical and very easily mistaken for toe nail clippers, with it's small size you can literally fit it anywhere! .. Only down side is it's not assisted open. Taking offers

    D: Pretty sure that's illegal and you need a class T license for it


    S: I would require a collectors license because of the rarity, but being as it has no marked brand. I'm unsure of the value.


    R: I'm sure u could trade it to warren. U just need to ad in about a grand with it


    C: I'll give you a quarter if you sharpen it first

    Guests can not see images in the messages. Please register in the forum.

    S: Update: I found out it marked "China" not sure if it's referring to being made in China or if that's the brand

    C: Ok it's the brand name I know that brand it's a **** brand I'll give you a dime for it

    Guests can not see images in the messages. Please register in the forum.

    R: I'll trade you some fire starters for it but i'll need $150 with trade


    C: ^dont do it man it's not worth your high quality fire starter

    Guests can not see images in the messages. Please register in the forum.
    S: Would you take the knife and this adjustable iron sight? Never used.. Unsure of how it works got it for Christmas last year


    R: youve got it upside down, thats why you couldnt figure it out. Those are tricky.


    C: You obviously clip it on your barrel

    And in other news, I have taken the rest of the week off for mental health days! Ugh. We have Christmas off but it's worth the use of my vacation time in this case. What is it about Christmas time that brings out the crazy in people?

    It's the fact that we've forgotten the true meaning of Christmas and now try to juggle added costs for presents into the lack of a budget. Add in the running around to shop, the dreary days and the loss of light. Gads, I just got myself depressed.... My thanks to the many marketing and advertising folks out there. You do your job very well. You've trained us through the years.

    1sttimestar......disappointment, I think. Regardless, of how happy a person is, they either expect magic or know that it's not going to happen. I'm a Christian but I value the Buddhist worldview - it's sorta like a cosmic Kennedy - Ask not what the world will do for you; ask, instead, what you will do for the world. I think the Lord gives that a big nod. It also makes for an altogether nicer CHRISTmas.
    True enough, my final home is still out there, but this is most certainly my home range and I love it. I love every rock I fall off and tree I trip over. Even when I am close to dying from exhaustion, a beautiful sunset doesn't lose it's power to refresh and inspire me and that, in itself, is enough to save me sometimes.

    And on that note, I'll close this year's thread.

    I only just looked the music up on the internet about 10 minutes before making this video so excuse the mistakes.

    Beautiful song and that was good for just 10 minutes of practice. Happy New Year, and hope you are staying warm.

    Every time an older person dies, its like burning a full set of encyclopedias that will never be published again. So, if you ever want to learn more of anything, just find a old tradesman and hang out with him and then when he passes on, not the full set will burn, you'll have parts of it to pass on to others.

    definitely...I am starting to wonder how long before the oil boys take our last frontier away from us. I hope never because I seriously want to spend 1 year in the wild!
