This is how I'll remember Val Kilmer being awesome in the epic volleyball scene in Top Gun. Ice had the best hair...❤️

Same!

A few years back, I read an article about a retiring small town Sheriff somewhere in the southern US (sorry, can't remember where), whose parting advice was, with the way things were going, "y'all best get yourselves a shotgun & a couple of mean, bitey dogs".

🤔Good advice, I reckon

Coming soon to a bank near you…talk to someone from Cyprus. Citizens lost billions when the government confiscated all deposits to save their banking system.

White papers have already discussed the process in Canada - all $ confiscated, replaced by digital currency. Certain bail-in procedures have already been approved in legislation (Bill C-15).

With present debt levels, it's only a matter of time...

Russian Propaganda 😏

Truthfully, this is somewhat more tolerable than the original 😂

Best of the comments:

Germany: Sigma boy is pro-russian propaganda!!

Russia: Thanks for the idea

I still remember my Grade 8 Math teacher (hippie, sat cross-legged on his desk...it was the '70s), giving a talk about margarine; he called it rancid butter, "Now why would you eat rancid butter?", he asked. Figured he had a point, so, I have never, ever bought margarine. Keep the butter in the fridge at all times too - a bit of a pain to butter toast; however, at least there is no chance of it going rancid!

Pretty much...gas bills are even worse!

Tom Brown, a 79-year-old from Clemmons, North Carolina, has spent over 20 years of his retirement tracking down rare, nearly extinct apple varieties that once flourished across Appalachia. Driven by his passion for rediscovering these heirlooms, Brown has revived more than 1,200 unique apple types with whimsical names like Brushy Mountain Limbertwig, Mule Face, and Tucker’s Everbearing.

His journey began in 1998 after encountering heritage apples at a farmers’ market, inspiring him to search for “lost” apples that hadn’t been tasted in over a century. Stretching across the Appalachian region—from southern New York to northern Alabama—Brown scours old maps, orchard catalogs, and historical records, often driving hours and knocking on doors to find forgotten orchards or lone trees tucked in remote areas.

When he finds a lost variety, Brown grafts clippings onto trees in his own orchard, where he cultivates and sells them for just $15 to encourage others to create “mini preservation orchards.” Despite the challenge of aging trees and a dwindling population of local knowledge keepers, Brown remains determined, calling the work both fun and fulfilling.

“It’s a thrill to rediscover them,” he says. “I’m happy as a lark.” Brown’s mission not only preserves these apples but also honors the heritage of the region, where generations of families once prided themselves on cultivating unique varieties in their backyards.

EPIC. I don't know who this man is nor have I ever even heard of this man until today. Whoever he is - he’s now on the map. 🤔
