There are some members of the Catalonian government still being held in prison on various charges. The strike is in part a protest about these imprisonments.
This link explains a bit about what happened.

Thank you Shad, reading now...

Hey Shad! Thanks for the yummy coffee!
Do you think that the Catalonians will separate from Spain successfully? Interesting in light of the succession effort in the UK etc.

Not without yet another civil war unless there is some major change in the Spanish constitution.
The simple fact that the Catalan Nationalists just can't seem to understand is that if Catalonia became independent the Spanish economy would collapse.
There would also be pressure from at least two other regions for Independence and both these other regions are economically important.
While there is a semi socialist government in power in Spain military action by the Spanish is unlikely but if the government changed to something more right wing then it's a real possibility.

Shad, sounds like the upheaval has been going on for some time.

Yup, since the Romans. with a few wars in between.
It's a problem with Nationalism and certain parts of Europe are holiday destinations one week and war zones the next.

The article you posted sums it up quite well. Most news here in the US is superficial and makes it hard to get a real grasp on what is happening globally. Thanks for helping to clarify the situation.

Dang it. They don't have it at TSC. They only have these ones and then Flock Raiser, All Flock, Feather Fixer, Meatbird Crumbles, and then the rest chicken feed like various starter/growers and layer feeds. About to go check our other feed store. They may have it. Of not, I can order it online. I was just hoping someone local had it. If neither of those two have it then it may be at another store, there are numerous ones around here, but they are further away and I don't feel like driving to any further away ones today lol I am assuming Flock Raiser won't work?

Darn, the other store is closed. Just missed it. Closed at 5. Swore they closed at 6 or 7 but maybe they have winter hours or something. Darn. Oh well. Will check tomorrow.

I actually did see that one there but I didn't check the label cause it just said chick starter on it and had a picture of a chick. Didn't even think to check the label ha so that one would work??

Hot chocolate anyone? Mine is spiked with butterscotch scnapps but I would have put a shot of whiskey in it. Igor likes sweet too much. Therefore I must as well.
