Chit Chat 24

Can't argue with that.

Methane, diapers on cattle. Rice paddies are now targeted for always being flooded, which causes the plant life under the water to die, rot and produce methane. Carbon footprint. It's all insanity. One volcano eruption puts out more carbon per eruption, than all the vehicles on the planet do, in 5-10 years.

They sit around, and think up scary things to rake in the money from the gullible.

That's right.  Maybe they should put regulations om volcanos.

Well.  We don't have volcanoes here, so they have to find something.

It seems mankind (Which also means female as well) is never satisfied with our
God given abundance. We seem to consider our ideas superior. One day we shall
stand before the Father and Son and answer. May the good Lord be merciful.

Sorry Windwalker, I got my post tangled with your post. I absolutely agree with you on the global warming scam.

An estimated 20 billion disposable diapers are added to landfills throughout the country each year, creating about 3.5 million tons of waste. According to findings from the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, disposable diapers introduce pathogens into the environment from the solid waste they contain. While the effects of these pathogens are still being studied, experts agree that pathogens could make their way into a water source, potentially polluting drinking water.

Studies indicate that diapers in landfills take up to 500 years to degrade, creating methane and other toxic gasses in the process, and their manufacture uses volatile chemicals that also end up in the eco-system. In addition, estimates indicate that up to 200,000 trees are lost each year to make disposable diapers for babies in the U.S. alone.  https://www.prnewswire.com/news-releases/disposable-diapers-add-millions-of-tons-of-waste-to-landfills-each-year-according-to-epa-report-300384344.html

It's raining this morning. So a few things I had planned for outside, will have to wait.

Good morning beautiful Shouters.

Not a lot going on today except for mid week eve service at church. 

I might go out and clear a spot for some lettuce.  I sure would like to go for onion sets but have not driven truck to Cape Girardeau yet (12 miles) since the issue with it stalling.  So far it has worked on these short distances here in Jackson.  Onion sets are really expensive here for some reason.

I buy chopped onions that are 3 bucks for about 8 ounces.

I need to work on the riding mower today. The grass is beginning to grow back now. Then I have to drive 30 miles for a follow-up doctor's appointment, That should pretty much finish the day.

Yes sounds like your day is full Windwalker.

I did not do the garden spot yesterday......I need to get that done.

I had to pick up my Ozempic shipment, then got an HP Photosmart 7520 printer,because my old Canon wouldn't communicate with my laptop.  Brought the old one home to use with my old desktop.

No plans today. I think Marissa's boyfriend is going to put the idler pulley and main belt on the riding mower for me.

Will probably go to Kohl's this afternoon- no other plans

Splashing out then LFF ? Hope you’ve stopped gambling!

Got my laptop back, so I can play the slots again.  My desktop wouldn't play them

Some people never learn. Only winners are web site vultures. Waste of money.

It is raining and I am about to go have my taxes done.  Please pray I don't have trouble with the truck and get stranded.

No other things pressing to get done today.

Best wishes Becci, in my prayers.

I used to work in the betting shops turf accountants, call them what you will, even the greyhound dog racing tracks in the evenings, Wembley and White City UK, seen all types of gamblers, and yes, it is a mugs game...Of course slot machines, online gambling and casino's is another quick way to lose ones money... If you are losing, you then start chasing your money, your losses, and if you win, you just land up giving your winnings all back to them because you think you are on a winning streak...

Which is why I don't use real money, but points.

LFF...good thinking...i dont understand about points but, i am guessing, these points still have to be paid for..

No.  One can buy points, gems, and such, but I never do.  When I open the site, there are 7 or 8 pop-ups that allow one to purchase extra points, but I always X them out.

I hear gentle rain falling on the roof as I type.
Glad, I'm also getting the gardening itch. Fresh
food from the earth is best.
LFF,  I suppose it will be the young people who finally
do something about the damage plastic is causing the earth.
When I was a kid everything came either in a tin can, a glass jar 
or a paper bag. Glass was reused. Tin cans decomposed eventually.
Paper bags were used for several purposes.
My Colleen hasn't completely recovered from the awful infection.
The tubes have been removed/healing is taking quite some time.
It seems Strep (Spelling?) begins and some infection follows. It's
the infection that causes problems. I never have seen such.

Will continue to pray for her, nell.

Today is my lazy day, Sunday day of rest and really looking forward to it.  My Chef is cooking so what more can a gal ask for.

Everyone have a great weekend.

My chef has the day off.

I wish I had a chef or at least a dishwasher.


TT I must visit your site.....it has been far to long. Will do so later today.


Americans don't forget to set your clocks up 1 hour.

Already done!  Going to bed.  Good night all.

Our UK clocks dont " Spring " forward until the last Sunday of March, 31st this year..

I need to go around, and set a couple of clocks. The stove, and a wall clock I have to set. Oh, I almost forgot the clock in the truck.

I took care of the clocks (except the truck) yesterday afternoon.  I find that it is easier for me and when it comes bedtime I don't seem to miss that hour.

This morning I was up at 6 and it was still dark.  Read my Bible....started 1 Chronicles (a most difficult book to understand) but want to keep up the daily reading.

I will soon get ready to attend Sunday worship.

Have a wonderful day Shouters!

Gotta set the clock in my car yet

Talking previously of robots, this link was posted on another American forum, something i had not heard of before and is quite concerning, what do you think?...Link...

https://autonomousweapons.org/

They've been saying 'robots will someday rule the world' for years.  Is that time upon us?

Like every invention, danger of miss-use, only, if and when, in the wrong hands..
How long can our future last before an idiot thinks up another damaging invention that has the ability of wiping out our entire civilisation..

Cloning hybrid humans being attempted in China and other unregulated places. Also space travel may bring viruses here that we can’t control. So much human stupidity.

That's scary stuff!

Autonomous weapons. That is what concerns me. They had to shut down a pair of AI computers in their research. The machines would talk to one another, and eventually developed their own language, because it was more efficient. AI is only as good, as the developer and those giving it the sources to learn from. One day, they might decide we are the cancer of the planet, and work to remove us.

There is always a mis-use to every invention, whether good or bad...
Another thing i have recently come across is inventors of the fastest cars in the world...Where on earth can one drive a car at these speeds anyway, we have speed limits on our roads and motorways...

Hi Jackie!  Some are not satisfied with the status quo.  Must always 'reach for the stars'.

Sort of like the stupid sport of, skydiving. A minute or so of excitement, but then think how stupid you feel, when the chute doesn't open, and you spend your last moments, wondering, why.

Adrenalin junkies...they are just dicing with death...

Recently I posted this on facebook (if it is a repeat here I appologize) but it seems to fit in with a few of the posts lately in this thread.

They are playing God in my opinion:

That’s sick Glad. I suppose this is to support Chinese communist state. Playing God, poor babies.

I'm not a biologist, but I think this is a bad thing.

My faith is in He who created everything. This orb was destroyed to a degree once by water. "Next time by fire". Possibly by fire created by man.

If Iran gets the nuclear ballistic missile they want it will be used on Israel who will retaliate in kind and that will be the end.  I’m not optimistic for our future.

Could it be Armageddon?

OK with me if Jesus returning, it could be Armageddon.
