Not yet, but soon. The reasoning was that it costs 3.5 cents to make a penny. So, the "value" is not there. However, it also costs around 3 cents to make a $1 dollar bill, also a $5 bill, also a $10 bill, also a $20 bill, also a $50 bill, etc. So, the "sense" they provided for ending the "cent" really makes no valid sense. More devaluing of our currency.

JK, you may find Genesis Unbound by John Sailhamer interesting. The premise is that Gen 1:1 is a complete statement, standing alone. Gen 1:2 forward is the creation of the promised land within the creation. I'd rather lend that the Holy Spirit infills us to become more human, like Jesus. The vocation is to bring heaven to earth.

What are the masked and hoodied, foreign-flag-waving, unemployed-in-the-most-employable-era-in-history protesting late on a Monday night this time? Do they not know they have to get up for shift work in 5 hours? These people are insufferable a$$holes. Again, my Ngo idea gets eaten up by some dbag liberal. Pay these losers $16 and let them hit a pinger, and just rake in Soros' USAID money. It's all tax free cash to the Ngo guy. All the while, the dopes are taking selfies hoping some homegirl gets a whiff of his cologne. BO, Savauge, and tear gas...the ultimate scent to try and pick up chicks. Is it any wonder the AI bots will soon replace all of these?

We would need some sort of angle to entice Soros or Bloomberg or Gates to throw large sums of money from their USAID funding in our direction. So, it would have center on gun grabbing or alphabet things or environmental nonsense or population control in foreign countries through vaccines. And we need a catchy name...like...The FFT American Institute for Gun Control and Alphabet Things and the Environment and Population Control through Vaccines...FFTAIGCATEPCV (yeah, catchy, I like it. Kinda rolls off your tounge). Whatever we conjure up with our catchy name and clever sales tactics (hopefully skids can pull together a good sales team from this bunch) is tax free $. We'll need someone in each city to write Craigslist ads for people to picket and act the fool for $16, a coffee, and pinger toke. But, the tax free cash will roll.

Trump's Tariffs Deliver Record $23 Billion Revenue In May

Mine was also in the "great" category. Drafted into the Marine Corps for the Korean war. Youngest of 9 children. High School teacher and Principal, basketball coach (he coached football and track, too, but those aren't beautiful like basketball). Provided us the Leave it to Beaver life in a small, rural town. 94 now and still mows his own yard. Steps have gotten pretty short and spends lots of time reading mail and watching old Westerns. Couldn't have asked for better.

This would make a $400k loan into $500k. That would exceed the value of the home. No bank would make that loan. NAR kinda lost any credibility they may have had when they took the L on the commissions lawsuit without a fight.

One month ago the world was stunned when the Atlanta Fed GDPNow forecast slashed US GDP Q1 estimates to down almost 4%. And sure enough, having 'adjusted' for the massive surge in gold imports, The Atlanta Fed quietly revised their forecast for Q1 GDP to just a 0.1% decline... So, no economic collapse. No financial hellscape. No 'next great depression'? Or were The Usual Suspects attempting to manipulate a narrative once again? rink

Intriguing they would go there, considering CA is a sure thing for the communists who believe .gov is a provider instead of a consumer.

Taller as it gets hotter provides shade to hold moisture. But, ask him to start striping it and you won't want it tall. I don't know where you live, or what type of grass, but brown patches are mostly in need of a wetting agent to open the top of the soil. The soil gets bound together at the top and water won't soak through. You can purchase wetting agents at the grass store, but baby shampoo or cheap lemon dishwashing liquid from the dollar store contain the same chemical. The tonic that has been around for 50 years is from Jerry Baker. At some point he added a can of Coke to the recipe instead of molasses or corn syrup.

I'm sorry your recall is cloudy. Long covid is a thing.
