- 0:38you here up and raring to go right what are we doing today what am i doing today uh i don't know
- 0:45just relaxing packing yeah working on that it's only five days only five days yeah i mean if you
- 0:55want to pack that car perfectly you know you got to get it all ready you don't even have the car
- 1:00yet that shouldn't stop you i mean honestly you can pack it all in neat little containers and get
- 1:07it all specced out based on the cargo capacity of the vehicle and you know i don't even know what
- 1:13it's going to be yet i hate that part oh i wish they would tell you yeah that sucks they're like
- 1:19or similar or similar that's exactly what it is like how similar are we talking about here like
- 1:26like we did call them and ask them and they're like uh well it could be a you know we have a rogue
- 1:32or a i don't know a bronco sport or something else i don't remember what they said a mazda
- 1:41something or other a mazda i mean they're all kind of similar i guess yeah except those mazdas they
- 1:46they they went back to that rotary engine stuff no yeah i heard they were going back to it
- 1:53nah that's a good engine design nah they wear out hundred thousand miles are done
- 1:59yeah but it's fine still a really good engine design yeah actually the the one mazda model the
- 2:05what was the one I was looking at? CX-50.
- 2:08It actually has the hybrid model.
- 2:12Toyota, 2.5 in it.
- 2:14Oh, really?
- 2:15It's made by Toyota.
- 2:16So it'll actually last.
- 2:18Maybe. That part of it, anyway.
- 2:20Something.
- 2:21I don't know about the rest of the car.
- 2:22Right.
- 2:24Wheels fell off, but hey, the engine's good.
- 2:27I mean, we're still talking like 40 grand for, you know,
- 2:31a little tiny SUV thing.
- 2:33Just think about this.
- 2:35like some some dude some engineer somewhere at one point went like i i swear he was taking
- 2:41bong rips he must have been and he's like no man i got a better idea we're gonna have the whole
- 2:46engine move around the cylinders you do what you know what i mean the rotary engine the whole
- 2:54concept oh the wankle engine yeah everything doing the yeah you're like why would you do that
- 2:59there just seems like so much extra effort right there but it's apparently very efficient
- 3:03yeah for the for the power yeah they're just they're they're not the longevity is not there
- 3:09yeah sad sad we need someone else take some very expensive to rebuild yeah i'd imagine very like
- 3:18it's not real feasible oh i saw this engine thing that was pretty cool i meant to send to you it's
- 3:23like some huge engine like gigantic it was i guess used for pushing gas gas pressure gas
- 3:31i can't remember what it's called but it's it's apparently an eight cylinder engine it's got two
- 3:37it's pretty insane it's huge it fills the whole building this engine oh wow yeah it's pretty cool
- 3:44it's pretty cool i'll have to send it because it was really cool maybe i'll put that up in here
- 3:48somewhere if i can i don't know it seems like it'd be cool maybe it won't back in the day i'd
- 3:53probably try stuffing something like that in the mustanger you know i don't you wouldn't yeah you
- 3:58need a lot of mustangs a whole lot of mustangs a very it's a big big big engine yeah it's crazy
- 4:07very very crazy very cool stuff i don't know how i came across it i was just doing stuff and next
- 4:16thing you know i was like hey and i'm like what is that and they're like it's an engine i'm like
- 4:21it doesn't look like an engine to me but okay probably you know death scrolling through tiktok
- 4:27for hours and that's how you ran across it no i don't do tiktok so i think i was actually no i was
- 4:34actually in telegram i think uh on oh okay one of the one of the channels that i i follow
- 4:40when they posted it i think that's where i found it but i don't do i know you've sent me tiktok
- 4:47stuff before it probably came from somebody else then huh yeah yeah i mean tiktok's everywhere
- 4:52the little clips and stuff.
- 4:54But I don't do TikTok.
- 4:56Yeah.
- 4:58Like people send the link for TikTok
- 5:00and I'm like,
- 5:01same with the Facebook.
- 5:03Because you click on it.
- 5:05It's like create an account.
- 5:06And I'm like, no,
- 5:07I don't want to.
- 5:09I'll consume the content
- 5:10if you're going to dole it up.
- 5:12But I'm not creating an account.
- 5:13I don't want anything to do with your platform.
- 5:15Thank you very much.
- 5:16Bye bye.
- 5:19Yep.
- 5:21Yeah.
- 5:21so we got our first frost coming up here supposed to get down to 28 degrees that sounds like fun
- 5:29that's not very many degrees i mean unless you went to college i mean if you went to college
- 5:34and you had 28 degrees that's a lot of degrees but like in weather it's not so many degrees you know
- 5:41like i don't know that's not many degrees and and it's going to be very
- 5:46degree-less and cold.
- 5:50I mean, 28, those people we watch from Alaska,
- 5:52they'd probably be in like t-shirts and shorts.
- 5:55Oh, yeah, they'd be golfing.
- 5:56They'd be laughing at you.
- 5:57They'd be golfing.
- 5:58They'd be like, it's such a beautiful day out.
- 6:00No, it's not.
- 6:03Yeah, I suppose it's all in your perception, right?
- 6:07It's supposed to get a little cold here, too.
- 6:10I don't think it's supposed to go below freezing, hopefully.
- 6:13I mean, if it does, it does.
- 6:15but that's the end of our, well, we were doing an experiment to see if we can get one more round of tomatoes and squash out before the freeze.
- 6:22I don't know.
- 6:23We got some squashes, you know, like six inch ones out there.
- 6:26They're getting there.
- 6:27Those are good eating.
- 6:29Yeah.
- 6:30I mean, baby squash is good.
- 6:32Yummy.
- 6:33Yeah.
- 6:33Worst case, we'll just pick them off and eat them.
- 6:36Well, you guys should be about 10 degrees warmer than us anyhow.
- 6:40So you'll be in the.
- 6:41I think that's about what it is.
- 6:42Yeah.
- 6:42Yeah, you'll be in the 38 range or something, so you should be fine.
- 6:47Tomatoes will be like, eh, it's pretty cold, we're not going to make fruit.
- 6:50But then it warms right back up.
- 6:52It's like a one-day event, you know what I mean?
- 6:56It's a darn Canadian sending their magic weather down our way.
- 7:02Like all 12 of them are sitting there at the border going,
- 7:05blowing it down.
- 7:09There's more than 12 probably, but I don't know.
- 7:12i just don't know for sure there might only be 12 and a moose definitely a moose
- 7:18yeah i might have to bust out the sweatpants for like one day i'm wearing sweatpants i love my
- 7:26sweatpants man i do they're so comfy well they are you know why not so i bought some new ones
- 7:34like we went to sam's club and they had some like i'm not really into buying like new stuff
- 7:38but i got kind of i got my hand forced but the worst thing dude they like they're like these
- 7:46little black fluffy bits keep coming off of them like non-stop the pills i hate that yeah
- 7:53you know like three times already inside out you know what bothers me the most is it's near
- 7:59impossible to find what i consider good sweatpants okay like why are they all skinny jeans why why
- 8:07Why are they all like there's a cuff at my ankle?
- 8:10I don't want a cuff.
- 8:11Or they're wide open at the bottom.
- 8:13This is not a sweat pant.
- 8:14I don't know what this is, but it's not a sweat pant.
- 8:17It should have the elastic band at the bottom that closes up,
- 8:21and it should immediately bulk out after that.
- 8:23And it should just be baggy and thick and comfortable
- 8:26and feel almost like you're not wearing pants.
- 8:30That's what it should feel like.
- 8:32Not this clingy, like, I don't know what these are.
- 8:36These aren't sweat pants.
- 8:36please put it back please put it back and by the same token board shorts should go down at least to
- 8:43the knee and preferably a little below the knee not like halfway up your leg that's not a board
- 8:50short that's like a i don't know what that is that's not a board short not not to me that's
- 8:55that's not good don't do that anymore and while we're on the subject short now yeah they make
- 9:01them all short like richard simmons shorts pretty close yeah yeah all right i'm like that's not a
- 9:08i'm not putting those on i won't do it and while we're on the subject for crying out loud people
- 9:15women want pockets put the freaking pockets in the clothing for the women at least one you just
- 9:22give them a pocket like you know little kangaroo pocket the new fashion trend they can get kangaroo
- 9:28pocket or something i don't know but pockets come on there you go you ever seen those kangaroo
- 9:36shoes they had those when i was in a like middle school you used to have a little little pouch on
- 9:41the side like you unzip them yep yep yeah that was before lights and shoes made me think of that
- 9:47no that was before lights and shoes and then kids had them too they oh that's way before lights
- 9:52yeah yeah that was before the little pump up tongues on them even and that came out everybody
- 9:59you know all the cool kids had that yeah and wheelies were like these weird frame skates that
- 10:05you could strap to your or heelies that you could strap to your shoes we didn't have like shoes with
- 10:11built-in skate wheels in them you remember those those death trap trap frames it's like a skate
- 10:19like a shoe, like a skate,
- 10:21but it was just a metal frame at the bottom
- 10:24and you strapped it on your shoe.
- 10:26It was metal.
- 10:27Yeah.
- 10:28It was terrible.
- 10:29It's terrible.
- 10:31Terrible.
- 10:31They were like metal wheels and stuff, yeah.
- 10:33Yeah, it was terrible.
- 10:34Very terrible.
- 10:36Was it terrible?
- 10:37I don't remember it being terrible.
- 10:38It was terrible, yeah.
- 10:40Yeah, it was terrible compared to skates.
- 10:43I remember my first skateboard,
- 10:46it was plastic and it was about,
- 10:49i don't know really small like that big and the wheels were pretty ginormous and yeah big gummy
- 10:57wheels uh yeah huge my first one was was same multi-colored plastic with a little kick fin on
- 11:04it it was pretty short uh yeah i was in the 70s that was in the 70s oh yeah and remember we used
- 11:12to put the little uh used to get um uh kick plates for him right so on the on the kick fin right the
- 11:20little thing there was a little plastic thing you'd screw on there so that it would grind that off as
- 11:27opposed to your board because the board was just this multi-colored pressed plastic pile of junk
- 11:33right but man my first board wasn't even wood what my first board wasn't even wood it was plastic no
- 11:41that's what mine was too just multi-colored plastic pressed junk oh okay yeah with some
- 11:48grip tape on top of it that was it oh you got grip tape i didn't even have that yeah i had
- 11:53plain plastic well i was in california so we had made you know significant technological
- 12:00advancements already y'all were just trying to catch up right that's all i remember my first
- 12:07wood you know like pro model it wasn't even a pro model it was some cheapy one but you know it's
- 12:13whatever my parents could afford at the time that had all that uh protective stuff all over it it
- 12:18had the nose guard the rails the tail protector the truck protectors goofy as goofy gets so it was
- 12:27so heavy it weighed a ton i know yeah i have skateboards all over the place i've got like
- 12:34I don't know, eight or ten of them.
- 12:36I love skateboarding.
- 12:38You get the big long ones, right?
- 12:40Well, I have short ones, too.
- 12:41Oh, you do?
- 12:42Yeah.
- 12:43I wouldn't mind trying it again, but, dude, when you get older,
- 12:46it hurts a lot.
- 12:48The ground gets harder, for sure.
- 12:50Yeah, it does.
- 12:51It does.
- 12:52And it's further away.
- 12:54Even though it doesn seem like it it is When you hit it you gone a much longer distance Yeah It a reality Yeah Age provides that distance as well
- 13:06It's weird.
- 13:06Mm-hmm.
- 13:08Yeah.
- 13:08I don't know.
- 13:09I still love it, though.
- 13:10I don't care.
- 13:12I'm the old guy that's just out there on a skateboard, and people are like, what?
- 13:17I'm like, yeah, okay.
- 13:19Old dudes rule.
- 13:21Maybe you need to build a halfpipe in your backyard.
- 13:24I don't know about a half pipe,
- 13:25but I would like to have like a concrete skate path
- 13:28that I could take and just like cruise around.
- 13:32I'm too old for any kind of trickery or anything like that.
- 13:37I just want to skate.
- 13:39I love the feeling of it.
- 13:40It feels good to me.
- 13:42It just feels freeing and wonderful.
- 13:46It's a yummy thing.
- 13:47It is nice.
- 13:47It is.
- 13:48It is.
- 13:49It's better when you have nice equipment too.
- 13:52It is.
- 13:53It is.
- 13:53Although that depends, right?
- 13:55Like we let our oldest, or I did, he wanted to learn skateboarding and I had my longboard out there just so I could kind of cruise with him.
- 14:06And he wanted to try the longboard out.
- 14:09Longboard is typically, not always, but the ones I have are far faster, far faster than my trick decks.
- 14:18and so he gets on this thing and yeah it started going downhill and then yeah well he came off it
- 14:26and got a little hurt and you know yeah brushed it off did okay but still yeah the brakes didn't
- 14:34work the brakes yes no the brakes the brakes did work the ground worked perfectly exactly as
- 14:41designed and at his age you know not not really big consequence consequence dumping type event
- 14:50that's good yeah yeah i remember the one time my uh my cousin was hanging out and he dared me to go
- 14:57down like this hill like we lubed up the bearings on there got him you know we didn't know what we're
- 15:02doing he's like i bet you can't you know go down i'm like oh man i can do that yeah about halfway
- 15:07down you start just like it starts going you know it's done there's nothing you can do at that point
- 15:13speed wobbles except wait for the crash yeah yeah you can recover from them but they're they're
- 15:20hard you have to have a little bit of room and and start executing some slalom turns
- 15:27and and a lot of luck and hope yeah after i picked myself up off the ground and you know
- 15:33I got road rash all over me.
- 15:35I'm like, hey, it's your turn.
- 15:37He did it.
- 15:38I did it.
- 15:39He crashed too.
- 15:41Yeah.
- 15:42Oh, to be young.
- 15:44Let's go do stupid stuff and get hurt and then do it again.
- 15:49Because why not?
- 15:52I had fun doing it.
- 15:54We did some crazy stuff.
- 15:56Nowadays, I don't think parents would just be like, you can't do that with your children.
- 16:01That's child abuse or something.
- 16:03No, it's not, but whatever.
- 16:07We live in a bubble-wrapped world, don't we?
- 16:11Kind of.
- 16:12Yeah.
- 16:15Got to make sure them chillins are protected, watched, monitored, tracked, traced, and analyzed at all times.
- 16:21Mm-hmm.
- 16:23Yeah.
- 16:24Otherwise, they might be getting original thoughts, and that's dangerous.
- 16:28Have you seen what they're talking about to try to get these children into houses that they can't afford?
- 16:39They're talking about going to 50-year mortgages.
- 16:44Oh, that's a great idea.
- 16:47Yeah.
- 16:47Let me explain something to everyone watching, okay?
- 16:50when you have a mortgage okay so a 50 year mortgage is is absolutely like not your friend
- 16:58so when you have a mortgage literally the first half of the mortgage the half like in this case
- 17:0425 years you've paid almost nothing into your house you've paid almost nothing so if you took
- 17:13out a 500 000 loan on on a 50 year mortgage at 25 years in you'd probably still owe 490 000
- 17:20on the house.
- 17:22Yeah, I was looking at the numbers on it.
- 17:24But you will have paid the bank an enormous amount of interest.
- 17:28So don't do that.
- 17:30Just wait.
- 17:31Buy a smaller house, one that you don't like, one that whatever, in an area that is doing
- 17:36okay.
- 17:37And wait.
- 17:40And wait.
- 17:41And when the value goes up, sell your home.
- 17:44And if you need to, rent for a while.
- 17:47And when the market goes down, buy the next one.
- 17:50and then wait it's all cyclical it's on like a 10 10 10 year cycle
- 17:56about every 10 years the market will go way up years man and then 10 years it'll go and 10 years
- 18:04down so it's you know full 20 year cycle in between but i mean if you if you plan this out
- 18:09you'll be okay yeah i guess they just expect you to work till you're like 80 or 90 now well yeah
- 18:18Now they're talking about raising the retirement age yet again, right?
- 18:23Like 70 and a half wasn't enough, right?
- 18:26Now we're going to like, what are we going to do?
- 18:28Like 75?
- 18:29Ah, screw it.
- 18:29Just keep working.
- 18:31Screw you, plebe.
- 18:33No retirement for you.
- 18:37It's funny you picked that 500,000 number because that's actually the example that I was looking at.
- 18:43They didn't specify rates or anything.
- 18:45They're just going by, you know, whatever standard rates are.
- 18:48But at 30 years, you're paying like $600,000 in interest on a 30-year loan.
- 18:56Oh, yeah.
- 18:56And if you go 50 years, it goes to almost $1.2 million in interest that you're going to pay over the life of that loan.
- 19:04Isn't that nuts?
- 19:05Yeah.
- 19:06And we think that's more affordable.
- 19:09Your best bet is to get the shortest mortgage you can.
- 19:14Period.
- 19:15Get a cheaper house.
- 19:16Again, you don't like that needs work that isn't where you want to be.
- 19:22Just sacrifice a little bit.
- 19:25Get into a 15-year mortgage.
- 19:28And by the time that 10-year cycle goes around, you'll owe very little on that home.
- 19:33I forget the best part even.
- 19:35What's that?
- 19:36The best part is the difference between the payment on a 30- and a 50-year loan.
- 19:43$250.
- 19:43bucks. Yeah. It wouldn't be much. Yep. Yeah. Yeah. To save 250 bucks a month, you're spending
- 19:50another $600,000. Yeah. And it's ridiculous. Almost 700,000. Don't get me wrong. Housing
- 19:57prices are ridiculous. It's, it's absolutely, especially if you, you know, and this is something
- 20:03like, you know, I used to have the same mindset, you know, I want to live in this area. This is
- 20:08where I grew up. There's people I know, and I want to live in this area. But the unfortunate part
- 20:13is where I was at is an unaffordable area for anyone that isn't like upper middle class.
- 20:19And I was certainly not anywhere near that. Right. Um, and so the, the tough part is making those
- 20:30tough decisions to say, well, I can't afford to live in the area I want to. So I have to sacrifice
- 20:38a little bit and move to an area that I'm not real pleased about. It's not where I want to be.
- 20:43Um, but again, you're looking, if you look at it from a longterm perspective, you can do that, build up equity and then go get a house and the equity in your home can be the down payment.
- 20:54If things go really well, who knows?
- 20:57Maybe the equity in your home becomes the cash purchase for your next one.
- 21:02It could happen.
- 21:03Right.
- 21:03So, but it's all about getting in there and, you know, part of it is struggling through it.
- 21:09Right.
- 21:10It's not easy.
- 21:10Home ownership is not easy, especially first time buyer, right?
- 21:14When you're a new home buyer, it's an exciting thing.
- 21:18It's wonderful.
- 21:18It's everything.
- 21:19But it's also a lot of responsibility and a lot of time and effort and money that goes into maintaining things and stuff like this, right?
- 21:29So it's not easy.
- 21:32It's not easy.
- 21:32But you'll figure it out.
- 21:33I mean, the other thing they don't tell you that you figure out real quick, especially if you have a loan with like an escrow, even if you don't have an escrow, but the taxes and the insurance are never going to go down.
- 21:48So the first year payment that you get, that's the lowest it's ever going to be.
- 21:53And it's just going to keep going up every year after that for the next 50 years if you decide to do the 50 year deal.
- 22:01Unfortunately, unfortunately true.
- 22:03And it's a sad thing, right?
- 22:06I mean, at the end of the day, there should be, you know, puppies.
- 22:17It's a ridiculous.
- 22:18You shouldn't have to rent your property from the government in perpetuity.
- 22:24It's not home ownership.
- 22:25That's just renting, especially when they can just come take it.
- 22:29if you don't fulfill that stated obligation.
- 22:35I agree.
- 22:36I think it's a ridiculous thing and it should be abolished.
- 22:40You know, I get it.
- 22:41You need to pay for whatever.
- 22:43I get it.
- 22:44Whatever.
- 22:45I'm not going to get into that argument because I think it's all a sham.
- 22:48But let's just assume that for the moment and the time being
- 22:53and the purpose of this discussion that it is necessary
- 22:56and you do have to do these things in the way that you do them,
- 23:00there should be a time cap.
- 23:02Like when your mortgage is paid off, that's it.
- 23:04You're done.
- 23:06You own it now.
- 23:07You're not renting it from us anymore.
- 23:10Sorry.
- 23:12What about all the children and the fire department and the police?
- 23:16I think paying in for 30 years probably is enough.
- 23:23Honestly, I do.
- 23:24and and you know hey look i'm honestly i'd be okay going back to the kind of community-based
- 23:32piece of that right more voluntary action hey you know we all kind of chip in and fund and
- 23:39you know volunteer fire departments and you know all the other stuff and there you go
- 23:45and i think it'd work out better for everyone personally especially if it was you know done in
- 23:53in, you know, a decent manner.
- 23:56But that being said, there's no, this isn't, we,
- 24:01it would be one thing if the stated funds were used exactly for the stated
- 24:07reason that they are being forcibly extracted from you at the point of a gun.
- 24:15Because at the end of the day, that's what it is, right?
- 24:18If you take it to its logical conclusion at the end of the day,
- 24:22it is enforced at the point of a gun.
- 24:27So.
- 24:29At very minimum, the threat of being homeless.
- 24:32So, kind of.
- 24:34Well, no, I mean, it goes like this, right?
- 24:36Okay, so what if I don't?
- 24:37Well, then we're going to send armed men to confiscate your property.
- 24:41Well, what if I resist?
- 24:42Well, then we will, you know, we will apply force.
- 24:46Well, what if I don't want you to come steal my property
- 24:49and I put up an armed resistance?
- 24:51Well, then we will kill you.
- 24:53Okay.
- 24:54So at the end of it all, it doesn't matter.
- 24:56It all goes to, we will kill you period.
- 25:00That is the end of the whole discussion.
- 25:03It doesn't, Oh, if you just comply.
- 25:06Yeah.
- 25:06Okay, great.
- 25:07I hear what you're saying, but at the end of the day, every one of these things is enforced
- 25:11at the point of a gun with the implicit threat.
- 25:17We will kill you if you don't.
- 25:21I guess you get a point.
- 25:23So, yeah, I'm not a fan of that.
- 25:26Ideas so good they have to be enforced at the point of a gun.
- 25:30Probably not good ideas in the first place.
- 25:34I guess they're putting forth some stuff here in Florida about eliminating or reducing the property tax.
- 25:40I don't know how that's going to pan out.
- 25:42I guess time will tell, but I don't know.
- 25:45They'll probably come up with some other clever way to get money from us.
- 25:48At the end of the day, consumption tax is the way I, if you're going to do something like this, just make it off consumption.
- 25:54A hundred percent.
- 25:56No no loopholes No nothing Just what you consume you going to be taxed at a specific rate and if you consuming more than other people then you going to have a much higher tax rate
- 26:09right uh just get rid of sense to me yeah get rid of the loophole if you if you buy it
- 26:16it's going to be taxed period
- 26:18that's a good way to do it i think i don't know well it's it certainly would seem a little bit
- 26:28more fair in general right the the family out there struggling to scrape up change to buy the old
- 26:36you know honda camry that's from 1978 so they can have a vehicle to drive to work is going to be
- 26:44paying a tax on that.
- 26:46Meanwhile, the yo-yo buying his, you know,
- 26:48third Lamborghini to park in his garage is going to be paying tax on that.
- 26:53Yeah.
- 26:54You know, the dude out there trying to make a living doing local fishing,
- 26:59you know, in his little, you know, boat, you know,
- 27:03paying for that is going to pay for that.
- 27:06The dude with his mega yacht is going to be paying for that.
- 27:11Okay.
- 27:12There you go.
- 27:14yeah let's not even get on the price of vehicles
- 27:19those are ridiculous too it is it is i was looking just recently because of our conversation
- 27:28at some vehicles and i was just like day it was just this is new car prices for old stuff
- 27:34you know what i mean it's like how can an f350 be that expensive a used one with like 150 000
- 27:42miles on it yeah you know this thing was a work truck and it was beat to crap and they're like
- 27:51yeah six figures baby come on no so i'm in i'm i know you don't like facebook i'm in some
- 28:01vehicle groups that you know like have the same kind of vehicle that i do and i help people
- 28:06maintain them and make recommendations to them and they'll come on there with like uh
- 28:10what do you think about this deal in this case like a 99 with 300 and something thousand miles
- 28:19on it and they're asking almost four grand for it i'm like no yeah no that's not a good deal i'm
- 28:26like i don't know anything else about the car i don't know the condition i don't know the
- 28:29maintenance history i mean just based on that simple fact no that's not a good deal i mean
- 28:35no yeah yeah yeah it's it's it's insane so for right now no new no new vehicle for me
- 28:44yeah i well there won't be a new vehicle for me anyway i no i have no interest in paying that kind
- 28:51of a premium for something to have a three-year warranty or something it's just silliness and
- 28:58stupidity in my house i don't blame you yeah no no car payment is the kind i'd like it's raining
- 29:05leaves right now i don't know that there's going to be raining leaves right now i mean literally
- 29:12raining leaves right now nice yeah i don't know there's going to be much in the way of leaves
- 29:18when you guys get here next week so my wife will be very sad the color changes now uh but it and
- 29:28it is nice it's beautiful it really is but it's also not what it normally is because of the dry
- 29:34spell we had no they're just kind of falling off yeah pretty much although i will tell you this
- 29:41morning when i woke up the the color of the leaves down the driveway and you know the trees over it
- 29:49and everything else kind of looked like some you know norman rockwell type painting or something
- 29:55It was pretty beautiful.
- 29:56Yeah.
- 29:57Did you take any pictures?
- 29:59No?
- 30:00No.
- 30:01Just put it in your brain.
- 30:03That's about it.
- 30:04Yep.
- 30:05Hmm.
- 30:06Those are the best pictures.
- 30:08Did y'all get some rain?
- 30:10We had some rain come through here yesterday.
- 30:12Like for the first time in a while.
- 30:13Very little.
- 30:14Yeah.
- 30:15But enough.
- 30:15And our bok choy came up and some of the radishes and stuff.
- 30:19So that's nice.
- 30:20Hopefully more stuff will come up, but we'll see.
- 30:23we got to get sweet potatoes out of the ground because it's going to freeze and that'll kill
- 30:28yeah we pulled all ours out because we needed the room to plant stuff we got a big box of them
- 30:34that are curing yeah they're probably done by now two weeks baby two weeks to slow the spread
- 30:43or cure the sweet potato whatever yep why is it two weeks two weeks with garlic too why why what's
- 30:51the two weeks what is that is it like does the garlic and the sweet potato go yeah man i i just
- 30:58i can't right now i need a little rest you're gonna have to give me a couple weeks in this dark box
- 31:05then i'm good to go i don't know what happens if you eat one before the two weeks you die
- 31:14instant death
- 31:16instant death
- 31:18like the first
- 31:20I mean everything's edible
- 31:21once
- 31:22exactly like the first people
- 31:23figuring out mushrooms
- 31:25like I don't know
- 31:26that one killed Fred
- 31:27so
- 31:27you know
- 31:28this one tastes like steak
- 31:30oh look
- 31:31Jim's tripping balls
- 31:33what the hell
- 31:35I mean you know
- 31:39anything can happen I guess
- 31:43yeah i suppose yeah mushrooms very interesting very interesting
- 31:49do you like mushrooms i do not at all not even a little bit there's
- 31:55and i'm willing to try them i have every time someone says oh you'll like these you won't even
- 32:03taste mushroom i'm like i'll give it a shot but the second i taste that mushroom flavor that
- 32:09or it squeaks in my mouth i'm just gonna be like
- 32:13i so like we had some you know a couple weeks ago and added them to a stir fry and i i've never
- 32:22had much you know just like the regular kind you buy at the store i don't even know what they are
- 32:25um honestly they they tasted like i don't know you're gonna laugh like chicken to me
- 32:33they just kind of i don't know they take on the flavor whatever you're cooking it in
- 32:37yeah yeah and for the most part they do but then i get one of those bites that taste just like a
- 32:43mushroom and i'm like yeah i don't like that at all my lighting's all off today i'm all washed out
- 32:49i look kind of red that's all right yeah it's all right life yeah i don't know there's something
- 32:58about him the flavor of him i just like you know pinch made his famous sandwich and it was really
- 33:05tasty um and for a couple of bites i didn't taste any mushrooms and it was really good and then i
- 33:13bit into one and i could taste that flavor it's gag worthy for me i just don't i must have missed
- 33:19out on that sandwich thing or maybe i just passed on it no he he came down uh it was just him so he
- 33:27came yeah it was just us and we made it uh he made it mainly yeah it was it was good it was a very
- 33:34tasty sandwich. You know how picky I am. What's that? You know how picky I am.
- 33:39I probably would not enjoy it. Oh, I think you would, actually. It was
- 33:42really tasty. Yeah, it was really tasty. I just
- 33:46the mushroom was the only one piece. It was like I can't, I just can't
- 33:50get past that shrimp flavor.
- 33:55Blech. Blech.
- 33:57Blech. Yeah, no.
- 34:00Blech. Blech.
- 34:04make me want to do that it can't be that bad for me it is i don't know why but it is i just
- 34:14don't like them don't like them but again if someone has if someone has some and they're like
- 34:20oh these are the best you're gonna love them i'll give them a shot but i you know i'm not gonna tell
- 34:25you i like them if i don't and it's not you it's not your cooking it's me i don't like mushrooms
- 34:31like i don't like beef liver either i'll try it if you say you've got a great recipe but
- 34:41i'm gonna tell you right now i don't like it so i don't think i've ever had it
- 34:48it doesn't sound like good to me though it's it's highly avoidable
- 34:52and i would suggest doing so some people love it i just no i don't not at all
- 34:59hmm are chicken livers the same or are they different you know um i i don't like those
- 35:08either i've never actually tried them nobody's ever said i've made them they're going to be
- 35:13awesome but i will tell you this i've had them in gravy before and don't like that gravy i don't
- 35:18like that gravy at all it tastes like liver and gross um and then uh i've smelled them and i don't
- 35:27like the smell of them they smell like nasty little filters for stuff yuck all righty then
- 35:36yeah yeah it's like opening up an oil filter and just chugging the contents or something
- 35:44it's like i don't know i don't like them i don't like it
- 35:48that was loud you haven't tried that lutefisk either have you no i have not i don't think i
- 35:56could i'd give it a shot though why not it's the worst that happens yeah i'm i'm very open when it
- 36:03comes to food i've i've tried some weird stuff right uh i've tried balut actually pretty good
- 36:11but the the real concept and idea was was pretty hard to get through um you know so i i don't care
- 36:19I've had chicken's feet and just wasn't terribly tasty to me.
- 36:26And the little bones and all that.
- 36:29I saw them at the store the other day.
- 36:31My wife picked them up.
- 36:32It says chicken paws on the package.
- 36:35Yeah.
- 36:36Is that what they call them?
- 36:37Chicken paws?
- 36:38In the South, yeah.
- 36:40Call them chicken paws.
- 36:41Yep.
- 36:41All right.
- 36:42And grab you some chicken paws, throw a handful into your soup stock.
- 36:46Woo.
- 36:46It helps.
- 36:48It's good.
- 36:48All right.
- 36:49Yeah.
- 36:49you'll never even know they were in there either.
- 36:52They just disintegrate.
- 36:53They're gone.
- 36:54Don't tell me that.
- 36:55Toenails and everything.
- 36:57It's all just good collagen, baby.
- 36:59It's good for you.
- 37:00How'd you get all the chicken poop off of the chicken paws?
- 37:03Well, I mean, wash them.

- 37:47brisket.
- 37:48Hmm.
- 37:50The one you sent back here last time was pretty good.
- 37:53It didn't last very long.
- 37:55No, we sent him with a huge chunk, too.
- 37:57He's like, yeah, it's all gone.
- 37:58I know.
- 37:59I mean, it didn't last very long.
- 38:00Wow.
- 38:01Well, that's good.
- 38:02That's usually a good sign.
- 38:04Yeah.
- 38:05Yeah.
- 38:05It's like, you know, you did dinner right when the dinner table is quiet.
- 38:10Hmm.
- 38:12Is that how that works?
- 38:13Yeah.
- 38:13Well, when everyone's chewing so much, they can't talk.
- 38:16You did something right.
- 38:19Nice.
- 38:21If there's too much conversing going on, man, it wasn't that good.
- 38:27Yeah.
- 38:28If you can't wait to shovel the next bite in before you've finished,
- 38:33that's when you know it's good.
- 38:37Good tip to know.
- 38:39I'm telling you.
- 38:40I'm telling you.
- 38:41It's the way.
- 38:46What do you guys got going on today?
- 38:50This is probably it.
- 38:52I don't know.
- 38:53Might visit the in-laws today.
- 38:54Not sure.
- 38:57Give them a quick visit before we head out this week Where are you going North Carolina North Carolina I hear that place is pretty nice this time of year
- 39:11It is pretty nice.
- 39:12Yeah, all the bugs are down.
- 39:13People seem pretty friendly.
- 39:16Some of them.
- 39:16For the most part.
- 39:17Some of them, yeah.
- 39:19There's some interesting characters around here, too.
- 39:22Mm-hmm.
- 39:24I'm going to visit you.
- 39:25They all know that.
- 39:26I'm pretty sure they've all deducted that by now.
- 39:30Deducted.
- 39:32Deducted.
- 39:33You deduced.
- 39:36Yeah, that too.
- 39:38Which is different than reduced.
- 39:41But if you deduce something and then you did it again, would that be re-deducing?
- 39:47Maybe.
- 39:49That would be an interesting one there.
- 39:51Re-deduction.
- 39:52sounds like probably not a good use of the english language or something i don't know
- 39:58look i'm just making up words as i go along don't get on my case
- 40:02no that was a good word it was archie buckler used to do it all the time
- 40:08he did actually yeah
- 40:11yeah we should put on some old shows like that at some point just throw them on there just laugh
- 40:20different times man different times that's totally yeah i don't think you can get away
- 40:26with half the stuff they they did on there for no you absolutely cannot no absolutely cannot i
- 40:33remember we were we were sitting at the house one time and our oldest and his girlfriend at the time
- 40:40who he was actually living with um came over and i i was like pretty baked and i'm like let's watch
- 40:50something funny so i put on blazing saddles we got about 20 minutes into the flick she was mortified
- 40:56and was like i can't i can't watch this this is so wrong i'm like it's a comedy movie man
- 41:03but it's just so wrong and i was like okay i guess i mean you know it it is but at the same time
- 41:14this is mel brooks and it's come on it's obviously parody you know what i mean right so i don't know
- 41:25i i i thought it was pretty funny they they did not they cringed quite heavily
- 41:30i've never seen it yeah yeah i have to watch it oh really you never have uh you probably cringe too
- 41:38it makes people make some people cringe i just i laugh does it really yeah yeah
- 41:44Yeah. Yeah. There's liberal use of terminology that's no no longer considered socially acceptable.
- 41:53All right. Yeah, it's it's but it's it is all done in comedy, right?
- 41:59There's nothing meant to be harmful or, you know, anything like that.
- 42:04It just it's a comedy. Right. And at some point you have to realize that comedy and parody are exactly that.
- 42:13and it's not a social, you know, issue or concern here.
- 42:19It's literally just comedy.
- 42:22It's a performance, you know?
- 42:25I don't know.
- 42:26That's my take.
- 42:28Hmm.
- 42:29I'll have to see if I have it on the few streaming things that we have.
- 42:35Oh, I've got it.
- 42:37I don't know how well that would go over with the alpaca crowd.
- 42:41I'm guessing like a lead balloon, but, but it's funny, dude.
- 42:46It's old.
- 42:47His it's, it's historic.
- 42:49It's a historic film, right?
- 42:51I mean, it's funny.
- 42:53Everybody knows the name.
- 42:54Even if you haven't seen the movie, you know, the name.
- 42:57No, I've heard of it.
- 42:58Yeah.
- 42:59Yeah.
- 42:59So I don't know.
- 43:04You can find out, I guess.
- 43:08Yeah.
- 43:08We'll put something different on.
- 43:11we can watch that outside of the standard bounds there
- 43:16oh when's the puppy coming any news no i don't know we keep talking about i don't know
- 43:25it'll come when it comes so no updates then no updates well you could always get one of those
- 43:35hypersonic puppies yeah one of those uh malinois border collie mixes yeah yeah i mean why not
- 43:44right insane asylum here you come actually my wife just asked me today she's like what would
- 43:50you think about like a german shepherd malinois mix what are you coming from with this why why
- 43:57Why is the Malinois thing keep coming back in here?
- 44:00I don't know.
- 44:01Well, so, like, not that I really want, like, a, you know, hyper missile type of dog, but they do live longer.
- 44:11I mean, that's a bonus.
- 44:13Yeah, they're a little smaller.
- 44:14That's why.
- 44:15Yeah.
- 44:18That's the worst part about German Shepherds.
- 44:20Like, 12, 13 at the most, maybe.
- 44:25Yeah.
- 44:26that's the worst part about all pets
- 44:28it doesn't matter
- 44:30that extra few years
- 44:33doesn't make it any better or
- 44:34easier or different
- 44:37really you know what I mean
- 44:38it's still there's a period of
- 44:40time and then at the end of that period
- 44:43of time
- 44:43the reality will happen
- 44:47alright
- 44:48I try not to
- 44:51think about the dog thing too much because if I think about
- 44:53it too much I'll probably come up with
- 44:54a hundred reasons why we should not get another dog but you know like
- 44:58when it happens it'll happen you could always i'm not gonna push it always get a little chihuahua
- 45:05uh no come on they're so that's not gonna happen no no i mean they're great for other people
- 45:14they're great for other people
- 45:16yeah i don't know i'm not a big fan i personally have a weight limit on dog
- 45:25and right off the bat if it's 50 or under pounds it's just not the dog for me yeah yeah
- 45:33that's that's kind of my limit max was right on that limit
- 45:39he was a catalog
- 45:42a red healer
- 45:44alright
- 45:45and he was a good boy
- 45:48really he was
- 45:49a little aggressive
- 45:51but he also had this one thing
- 45:55my light is really bright
- 45:57why are you so bright today
- 45:58okay
- 45:59he had this thing where if you got him in the car
- 46:02to take him somewhere he would sing
- 46:04and I mean that boy could sing
- 46:06and it was very
- 46:08very very very very annoying like in the car like
- 46:14just like dude stop i can't imagine like having to have him in a car for several hours that would
- 46:25just not be good sanity never did that they uh they would do that when the fire engines went by
- 46:33sometimes.
- 46:35Yeah, and this wasn't really even howling, right?
- 46:37It wasn't like a, it was just this
- 46:40sad
- 46:42noise that he would make.
- 46:46Kind of a howl, but kind
- 46:48of more of a, I don't
- 46:49know how to describe it.
- 46:51Yeah, it was very annoying.
- 46:57No long road trips
- 46:59with that dog. But he was a
- 47:01good boy. He really was. He was a good
- 47:02kid yeah yeah i think i think we kind of forget like the the kind of naughty stuff they did and
- 47:10we only remember the good parts at the end which is good hey i i don't i don't but yeah
- 47:17no no not really i mean it's hard to ignore things like your entire kitchen floor being
- 47:24ripped up and then redoing it and having it done again like that doesn't like come out of my
- 47:32memory and like oh yeah i forgot about that i mean i've already forgotten about the you know
- 47:39the gigantic hole i had to patch in the drywall and all the other things you didn't did you
- 47:44couches that well i mean i did until just now thanks thanks a lot those are part of the part
- 47:53of the adventure and and i wouldn't change it to be honest with you quite shocking a little
- 47:58surprising like how did you even but okay here we are a little damage amazing that we did it again
- 48:06that's that's all i can say about that oh i told my wife when we got the rottweiler i'm like i just
- 48:13need to let you know damage is going to occur and it's going to be on a scale that will will blow
- 48:20your mind and i don't know what it's going to be or when or you know any of that right but i just
- 48:27want to let you know this will occur and sure enough and she was like i can't i can't even i

- 54:21yeah right
- 54:23no the guy's actually been
- 54:24real responsive
- 54:25he's got a
- 54:26he's got a little Facebook group

- 54:29but he's very responsive to people's questions and all.
- 54:32Very helpful.
- 54:34Well, cool.
- 54:35I hope it provides a benefit for you.
- 54:38I really do.
- 54:38Yeah, dude.
- 54:39I'm hoping it works.
- 54:40Yeah.
- 54:41For multiple things.
- 54:43Mm-hmm.
- 54:45I'll be interested.
- 54:46If I get it before we leave, I'll bring it up there.
- 54:50You can try it.
- 54:51It's good for joint pain and stuff, too.
- 54:52You can bring your gear, right?
- 54:55My gear?
- 54:56Your gear.
- 54:57yeah i was going to it's a little bit of a pain but i'll do it for you
- 55:02we could set up in the dining room or something maybe get a bunch of us on we'll see
- 55:08all right see if anyone can't will
- 55:11that's gonna be the hard part yeah we'll pressure them peer pressure
- 55:17hmm well you get an open bar socially lubricate them first you've been properly lubricated come
- 55:25Come on over here.
- 55:26Have a seat.
- 55:28Put these on.
- 55:29Yeah.
- 55:29No, lean in close to it.
- 55:31That's right.
- 55:31There you go.
- 55:33What are we doing?
- 55:34Bring my extra, my camera.
- 55:35We could do extra camera angles and all that stuff.
- 55:38Yeah.
- 55:38That's what I was thinking.
- 55:40Yeah.
- 55:42It'd be fun.
- 55:43It'd be fun for a change.
- 55:44It would.
- 55:45Yeah.
- 55:45Yeah.
- 55:45Be something different.
- 55:48Mm-hmm.
- 55:48Different could be good.
- 55:51Maybe.
- 55:52I think.
- 55:55We'll see.
- 55:56Sometimes.
- 55:56Sometimes different is bad.
- 55:59Sometimes.
- 55:59Sometimes it's bad.
- 56:00Sometimes different can be bad.
- 56:02Yes.
- 56:03Mm.
- 56:04Sometimes change is undesirable.
- 56:07I'm not really a change kind of guy.
- 56:10Yeah, I've noticed.
- 56:15That's why I've got 30 of the same shirt.
- 56:18Yeah.
- 56:19I got a bunch of questions about your little wall of Nintendo back there.
- 56:24like what like what kind of question like do they all work do you play them they should most of them
- 56:31i would think yeah yeah that's what i said but then i was like i don't really know
- 56:36like you want me to bring a nintendo you can play like contra
- 56:39no but okay if you want to i have no desire but you know hey i'm i'm good with it if you
- 56:50want to bring other people might be like oh yeah heck yeah this is awesome i don't know
- 56:56do i have a favorite one no not really do i play them anymore No not really How long has it been since you played one
- 57:09A few years.
- 57:10Just a few years?
- 57:12Yeah.
- 57:13Like three or ten?
- 57:18Five.
- 57:18Five.
- 57:20That's a good compromise.
- 57:22Yeah.
- 57:25Yeah.
- 57:25I wonder how much that collection's worth.
- 57:31I don't know.
- 57:34Definitely at least $25.
- 57:37$27 if you get the right GameStop employee.
- 57:43They give me like $10 in store credit.
- 57:45$10.
- 57:47Probably, yeah.
- 57:49That's how that works.
- 57:51It's a pretty impressive collection there, though.
- 57:53I mean, honestly.
- 57:54It was fun.
- 57:55The hunt was fun.
- 57:56And you don't look for them anymore?
- 57:59They're too expensive.
- 58:03There's none really to speak of out there.
- 58:07I enjoyed going to yard sales and flea markets and stuff.
- 58:11People weren't interested in them.
- 58:13Yeah.
- 58:14And they were affordable.
- 58:15And now everybody's, you know, like the prices went up and there's just a lot of resellers.
- 58:20They just, you know, they're just in it just to flip them.
- 58:25the collector market kind of made it ridiculous.
- 58:30Well, I mean, that could be good for you.
- 58:33Yeah, eventually, maybe.
- 58:34Maybe.
- 58:35It's your retirement package right there.
- 58:38Yeah, I could sell them just by a car.
- 58:40Yeah.
- 58:41Got a car up in one, maybe.
- 58:43Or a tractor.
- 58:44Or a van.
- 58:44Or a tractor would be better.
- 58:46And then you could be living in a van.
- 58:50By the river?
- 58:50Well, you need a river, so.
- 58:54Wiki Watchy.
- 58:55My dad's a van guy.
- 58:58He's always had a van.
- 58:59Vans are pretty cool.
- 59:00They're utilitarian.
- 59:03Unless you need to go taller than the van.
- 59:06That's the whole problem with vans.
- 59:09You get a high top van.
- 59:11You could, or you could just have a truck, and then there is no top.
- 59:17Go as tall as you want.
- 59:18Vans are nice for keeping your stuff dry and not wet.
- 59:22This is true.
- 59:23They are.
- 59:23They are good for that.
- 59:25And you can also make a pretty cool little sleeper van, too.
- 59:29Yeah, some of them are pretty nice.
- 59:31Yeah, yeah.
- 59:32Hidden panels and solar and all the good stuff.
- 59:35Little mini split for your van.
- 59:39I've seen some done pretty nicely.
- 59:41I like some of those overland campers, too.
- 59:44Have you seen those things?
- 59:45Burly little.
- 59:46They get pricey.
- 59:47Oh, yeah, very pricey.
- 59:49Yeah.
- 59:50Like more than I paid for my house pricey.
- 59:52Yeah.
- 59:52Yeah, but I enjoy some of that stuff.
- 59:55I've watched guys take old ambulances and turn them into that.
- 1:00:00It's actually a pretty killer platform for it because they're designed for a good amount of weight.
- 1:00:09The only thing about vans is they can be more difficult to work on.
- 1:00:13Oh, yeah?
- 1:00:14The engine compartment is a little more cramped, typically.
- 1:00:17Yeah, yeah.
- 1:00:18i remember we had a an old econo line and part of the engine compartment was in the van
- 1:00:24so yeah well the old ones used to have like the doghouse that came off inside there so
- 1:00:29that made things a little easier yeah i guess but you're still inside the vehicle working on a motor
- 1:00:36which is i don't know it's weird but i guess you couldn't really like put snap buckles on
- 1:00:44the damn thing and make it a cab over could you wouldn't really work yeah i know like some of them
- 1:00:52four diesel vans like there's places that just don't don't won't work on them because like some
- 1:00:58of the uh things to fix the four diesels you gotta remove like the body off of the frame oh geez
- 1:01:04and with a van that's a little more difficult than than like a pickup cab yeah but even still why why
- 1:01:10this is like my buddy with the bmw and he had to do something like drop his transmission or
- 1:01:18something to change his oil you know what i mean it's like who comes up with this stuff
- 1:01:22literally who comes up with this what is the point of that why why would you make something
- 1:01:29that's so difficult to work on it you know part of the engineering process should be like can we
- 1:01:37not make this easy for people to work on?
- 1:01:39Like these mundane, normal
- 1:01:41tasks that have to be completed every
- 1:01:433,000 to 5,000 miles,
- 1:01:45maybe we should be able to get to
- 1:01:47those without having to remove compartments
- 1:01:49and fairings
- 1:01:51and frickin' this and that and the other
- 1:01:53thing.
- 1:01:55I don't know.
- 1:01:57You would think I would think I just thought I thunk I did it well back in the day you could have like a model a and you know you have like four piece wrench set you can fix anything on
- 1:02:08the thing yeah or an old international you could literally jump in the engine compartment and work
- 1:02:13on it hmm now it's just cramped full of emissions crap that you can't fit in yeah or see the engine
- 1:02:21anymore yeah and plastic fairings everywhere for mileage and all the other stupidity that goes on
- 1:02:27yeah making life fun it's more fun this way
- 1:02:32oh so remember i was telling you about my trigger finger yeah yeah i went to the doctor about that
- 1:02:39they talked me into getting a cortisone injection which you know like i'm not really into
- 1:02:45pharmaceuticals at all, but it actually feels better.
- 1:02:50Oh, yeah.
- 1:02:50I mean, it ain't perfect.
- 1:02:51Don't get me wrong, but I mean, it's much better.
- 1:02:55Oh, much better is better.
- 1:02:56I mean, you know.
- 1:02:57Oh, yeah.
- 1:02:58Yeah.
- 1:02:59I mean, I could barely even move the thing.
- 1:03:00Yeah, I'm not big on pharmaceutical intervention myself, but there are times when Western medicine
- 1:03:10is probably a good idea.
- 1:03:14Maybe.
- 1:03:15We'll find out.
- 1:03:16I mean, I don't know.
- 1:03:17You know, if you want to be frank about it, I don't know what they injected me with.
- 1:03:23I didn't take it out of the bottle.
- 1:03:25It was already loaded up when they came in.
- 1:03:27Silly juice.
- 1:03:29Mmm.
- 1:03:30Yeah.
- 1:03:31I'm sure it'll be fine.
- 1:03:32It's going to slowly leach into your body and make you silly.
- 1:03:36Don't freak me out.
- 1:03:37You're just going to start walking silly and talking silly and just being silly.
- 1:03:41It's going to be silly.
- 1:03:42Very silly.
- 1:03:44It's probably those 5G antennas, and they're going to flip the switch.
- 1:03:48The nanobots.
- 1:03:50The nanobots are going to come here, right?
- 1:03:52Yeah, they're going to control your brain.
- 1:03:55Mm-hmm.
- 1:03:56And they're just like little antennas for the slaughterbots to come get me, right?
- 1:03:59That's exactly it.
- 1:04:00Your genetic coding has been uploaded to the cloud.
- 1:04:04I'm sure.
- 1:04:05They probably took that syringe and put me in the database.
- 1:04:09Speaking of the database, I saw, I think it was in Washington State.
- 1:04:14somebody sued to get access to the flock cameras.
- 1:04:19Yeah.
- 1:04:19They're like, well, we're paying for it with tax money.
- 1:04:22It should be open to, you know, a FOIA request.
- 1:04:26So instead of granting them access to it, they said, oh, well, we're going to just shut it down.
- 1:04:32Because that would be an invasion of privacy if we put that information out there.
- 1:04:37Yeah.
- 1:04:37Yeah.
- 1:04:39Yeah.
- 1:04:39Isn't that kind of crazy?
- 1:04:40It is crazy.
- 1:04:41what's sure they i'm sure they shut it down too right yeah what's crazy to me is is honestly
- 1:04:48right off the bat this is they can't do this right the only reason they're doing this or they
- 1:04:54they get away with this is because it's a private company and then they just go and get the data from
- 1:05:00a private company for sale or whatever and that circumvents our right to privacy which it shouldn't
- 1:05:08oh
- 1:05:10oh
- 1:05:12oh
- 1:05:16oh
- 1:05:17oh

- 1:08:19So the corners are round off.
- 1:08:20This one smells real leathery.
- 1:08:22That's a good thing too.
- 1:08:23Leather is a good smell.
- 1:08:26Carhartt.
