A couple of fellows that read the Blog but would like to remain anonymous donated a brand new Variable Frequency Drive and a 220 volt motor, already wired up about six freaking months ago now so I could upgrade my machine.

It’s been driving me crazy ever since, wanting to get that done.

It’s killing me that I can’t thank these two publicly but I will adhere to their wishes.

They know who they are and they probably think I’m a lazy worthless sonofabitch for not getting this done sooner.

Couldn’t blame them for thinking it.

Anyways, I told the Wifely Unit last Thursday that pretty much everyone could fuck off this weekend, I wasn’t doing anything for anybody.

I have been going full blast 7 days a week for at least the last 2 months and I am tired of it.

I figured having a three day weekend might give me a fighting chance to jump on this project.

It’s not completely done but it’s together enough to show that it does work.

I still have to mount the VFD, tidy up the wiring, figure how I am going to permanently mount the motor and make some kind of cover over the pully on the jack shaft to keep the Safety Nazis off my ass but it does work and I am just THRILLED!

Thanks again guys, I didn’t forget you after all.

Soon I will actually be able to use this thing the way I have been wanting to since the day I drug it home.

Some of this I heard about two years ago.

The Military intercepted foreign governments being involved in the vote tallies and other shady shit.

When Trump says “We Caught Them All”?

They caught them all.

It has just taken time to go through all of this in preparation for The Big Drop.

My old Chevy needs some tires. Been that way for a while.

A couple/ three weeks ago I stopped in at a local Les Schwab tire store and got a quote for 2 All Terrain light truck tires just for shits and grins.

Mounted and balanced, two tires would have cost me $550.00

Yeah thanks but I’ll pass.

So I have been looking around ever since.

I thought I found a pair a day later on Craigslist but the guy never got back to me and the ad expired.

Yesterday it was back and I actually talked to the guy this morning.

Ten minutes away from the house.

Literally the exact same tires I was quoted $550 for, Les Schwab Back Country All Terrain Light Truck tires, mounted on Ford 3/4 ton rims.

$150.

Cash.

They are sitting in the back of my truck as I type.

Even if it costs me another $100 to dismount 4 , mount and balance 2, I will still be ahead of that game at half the quoted price for the privilege of driving them out of their parking lot.

Double Bonus, because they are Les Schwab tires, they will fix flats and rotate them for free.

Just budgeting for their price, I will now have enough left over to go find 2 more tires.

Every freakin’ penny counts at this stage of the game but it’s also imperative right now to get what you need while you still can, if you can.

That $550 quote is going to be $650 or $700 by the end of Summer, IF, they are even still available.

It is going to get nothing but worse and FAST.

Gas and Diesel prices are already insane around here, I saw $5.49 a gallon three days ago locally for Regular gas.

Food inflation is literally going to DOUBLE from just the two months ago by the end of Summer.

The squeeze is on with the total destruction of the Middle Class as the end goal.

People on Fixed Incomes and the poor are already getting hammered, by Fall we are going to be seeing stories of malnutrition and want all across the country on a daily basis.

This next Winter is going to have people dying from lack of food and heat.

It is coming and it is being done on purpose.

This is an Open Thread, please let me know what’s on your mind and what you are seeing locally.

We are entering The Greatest Depression and no one is going to be prepared for what is coming down the pipe.

The lessons our parents and Grandparents learned have been forgotten and will be learned anew by necessity.

I’m going to leave you with a quick ten minute recipe for Pan Fried Bread.

Frugality is going to be the wave of the future.

This worked for me.

What is the word I’m looking for here?

PRICELESS.

The hard way.

John Wilder says we are the luckiest people evar!

I’m still waiting for the party to start.

The Commie bastard signed a bill into law last March outlawing gun magazines that hold more than 10 rounds.

It goes into effect June 8th.

If you have them in hand before that date they are Grandfathered in.

If you live in Washington State, then I very strongly suggest that you get with the program and stockpile as many magazines as you can afford and do it TODAY.

Most outfits will have them shipped to you before that June 8th deadline. After that, we are shit out of luck unless you want to go out of state and bring them back. Make sure all the lights on your vehicle work if you do, I’m just sayin’.

Because I was reminded of this I now have 16 more coming. Six 40 rounders and Ten 30 rounders.

I don’t even know how many I have total anymore but it’s going to have to be enough.

Don’t forget The Freedom Seeds that go in them either.

There’s 1,000 of those headed my way too.

Because Fuck You, That’s Why, Inslee.

Fuckin’ Commie Cunt.

Not only is there a shortage of goods and parts, there are shortages of the packaging materials needed to put it on the shelves.

After ten hours since I last ate and busting my ass so much, I decided to splurge.

No joke, for being such a skinny old bastard, I can put some serious groceries away when I want to.

I just single handedly destroyed a Porterhouse steak, a big blob of Deviled Egg Potato Salad and most of that mild chile.

Now if you will excuse me, it’s past my bedtime.

I have to get up early and do it all over again.

I have been INSANELY busy, even by my own standards.

On top of getting up at 5 A.M. Monday through Friday and getting home about 3:30, I haven’t been able to get in the house to sit down before 7 P.M. for two solid weeks.

Several times it was 8 and even 9, my bedtime.

This last Saturday was a 12 hour day and Sunday was 10 but it damn near killed me I was so wiped out when I finally came in the house last night.

Today was more of the same.

Got home at 3:30 and started in again.

It is now 7:15 and I am tired to the bone.

I still have to get something to eat yet, my stomach has been growling for 2 hours but I have been ignoring it.

Now you know the secret as to how I stay so skinny.

Work yourself half to death and don’t eat anything.

It works well, I’m here to tell ya.

I still have 2 more days to get finished up before this inspection.

A little weed eating in the rock pile out back, some last minute cleaning and polishing and I will be done.

I do have a surprise for you guys though,

I literally haven’t seen that much concrete floor in that garage in at least 2 years.

I wasn’t kidding when I said I have been busy.

So posting on my part has been understandably light and will probably be that way until at least Thursday evening.

My sincere thanks to Cederq for picking up the slack.

If it wasn’t for him there wouldn’t be any posting here.

So Many Thanks dude.

And also many Thanks to everyone who stops by.

Especially those who take the time to leave a comment or two.

Hopefully I will be back to my regular schedule soon.
