    INFLATION how's it hitting you?

    The guy I rent from gave me a rotten old-growth Bishop pine today. Oh, boy. Oh, boy I'm so happy now. Butt log about 30 inches dbh by 30 feet long. The rind is sound and about 4 to 6 inches thick and is clear vertical grain fat-wood. Splits like a deck of cards. There's years worth of...

    INFLATION how's it hitting you?

    When I was growing up everyone had a garden. As every working family learned during the great depression. You can not depend on the government. Fresh garden fruits and vegetables, caned goods and meats. Trading such goods was an every day thing. If you couldn't grow it you traded for...

    INFLATION how's it hitting you?

    Income hasn't kept up with the rate inflation since the late 1980s. And I base that on the ability of a wage earner to buy a home in Ft. Bragg. In 1975 a bare residential lot in Ft. Bragg could be had for 3 to 5 thousand dollars. Heck I had that in the bank. But instead I bought a...

    As I recall, in the early 1960s, canning jar "lids" were running 2 cents apiece. Out outrageous.
