  1. haha, Yeah wife and I went and bought all the seeds A few weeks ago too. I remember asking you for advice. Thanks again. we're learning as quick as we can. hope you are feeling better.
  2. Need to do some potatoes and are hoping the Tomatos get going soon. Seeds planted/
  3. All sorts of veggies. 3 apple trees, 1 pear tree, raspberry and blueberries. On my property Van Isl. I hope to, but not there yet. Hard to do.
  4. I don't know why you want to give major corporations and food producers the go ahead to hide potentially dangerous ingredients. That's a step backwards. I think most would agree. Actually you do agree...I prefer having first world problems than third world problems for sure. Eating a bats arse is what got the world into this problem in the first place.
  5. Did you know fish guts are used in fining (filtering) wine? that p!sses off the vegans. Even on food where they do label ingredients. Contains Vanilla... Did you know a chemical compound used in vanilla flavoured foods and scents comes from the butt of a beaver? I just want to know....like GI Joe....'knowing is half the battle'
  6. We are different. I think it is crazy to eat/drink something that is unknown. What if it contains something someone is deadly allergic too? What if it contains Wuhan Bat?
  7. I care what I put in my body and want to know what is in a product This convo was about gov stepping in and removing warning labels on Alc. Uvic was trying to do a study that was paused due to industry pressure. I don't want them in my personal life either I'm doing just that. Can I ask you, would you feed your child baby food that had no listed ingredients?
  8. That's what I already knew, the evidence isn't fully in. Problem with some of the long term studies is that a lot of the participants are often also cig smokers. Also, you don't need to smoke it to consume it. How is your edibles side hustle coming? I thought you were looking into that?
  9. There is something not so subliminal in these two sentences.
  10. I'm sorry my friend. Though, I thought calling you 'one of the smartest asses' kinda funny and a compliment. Maybe I am a bit too serious this morn...did I mention I am taxed to paint the bedroom today? ....just did the trim....if she catches me back on the computer..... Thanks for your answer.
  11. You are one of the smartest asses. Answer the question! Do you think it is ok to be allowed to not put an ingredient list on a consumable product?
  12. All of them. You gotta admit, not having to tell people the ingredients in a consumable product...does not seem weird to you?
  13. There's a good doc from the states a while back. I think it is called "Beer Wars" It outlines the incredible pressure that lobby groups down there have on the gov. Some smaller craft companies are not allowed to distribute in some states due to the large labels having a monopoly on distribution. So these struggling companies have to pay the larger ones to get on the trucks, their competitions trucks! Anyway, lobby groups are gross and should go the way of the dodo.
  14. One thing more thing regarding alcohol, something to think about. What is in a can of Bud? what ingredients? It is not listed, actually usually only craft companies put a simple version of their ingredients on the label. It is not required. You consume this product, put it in your body. You also consume food. Imagine if you picked up a can of soup and under the ingredients it said something like "we don't have to tell you" You good with that? I drink and I ran a group of LRS stores for 10 years. One in the DTES. I know a bit about this. Sorry, for the derailing. I gotta get on painting my bedroom
  15. thanks for that. My point is the gov being pressured. Also, no I didn;t know how much it contributed specifically to cancer.... Since lobbies have existed for decades...then thats ok too?
  16. Wait, A uni wanted to run a study telling people about the risks associated with alc. The gov paused it due to pressure from the industry. I think being informed is ok and I don't like private industry getting in the way of our gov letting us know important info/
  17. does weed cause cancer? I don't eat cured meat or use sunscreen....cause...i know... Weed however... got a link to it causing cancer?
  18. Sure..in moderation... Still, I don't like that alcohol companies pressure our gov's to remove warning labels that alert people to the growing realisation that alcohol more and more is linked to cancer. Why wouldn't they want those warning labels? Edit: Uvic has been on it for years https://www.uvic.ca/news/topics/2019+torch-direct-messaging+news 'alcohol is harmful to our health even in very small doses'
  19. More than just vices. Those could be all straight up addiction. Nicotine, Alc and Sugar.
  20. Randomly I was just reading an article on General Patton. These points made me think of your comments this morn... Patton's principles for good health: Brainpower comes from the lungs. An active mind cannot exist in an inactive body. There is no power in a bushel of blubber. Make the mind command the body. Never let the body command the mind. To gain strength, always go beyond exhaustion.
  21. My new work out routine this week has been power washing the driveway, painting the bedroom and building planter boxes. I'm tired but not bored. Thanks 'honey -do list' Drinking more than usual, but mostly vodka soda. Life is about balance.
  22. Thanks for your response. I understand your concerns. My hope is that the professionals and experts continue to evolve in their own way when analysing finds from sites. What I mean is, reporting archeological evidence as they believe it is. No matter if it is controversial. Hopefully in time, technology will help us find and understand more than we previously have.
  23. Ah, That sucks. Wife suffers with that. Only the mellow songs then....soft....zen...
