Oh, this is our sister site, Nifty created all of them, the easy garden, byc and sufficient self and the backyard cows.
I think everyone over there are members of byc as well. Thats how our membership started up, the administrator of this site created that one and asked everyone to join over there as well.
You will recognize alot of the same people.
We just discuss self sufficiency instead of chickens, well sometimes chickens sneak into the conversations.

If you look at the bottom of this screen you will see the links to all the other sites.

The Patriot Act has given ANY President the right to enforce this NATION WIDE in the event that the President was to call "Marshall Law".

PLEASE LOOK UP THE PATRIOT ACT AND ALL THE POWERS IT GIVES THE PRESIDENT

Marshall Law is not as uncommon as you might think either.
We were under it in WWII....and could be again if we go to war with Russia/Iran/Venezula.

Oh...and if Bush declares Marshall Law before Jan. 2009...that suspends the current election and he can remain President for 6 months before Congress can review it and "decide" if he should remain in charge or not....and if they decide he should remain in charge he can go on to be President INDEFINATELY.

You really need to read the Patriot Act....as boring and long winded as it is....that's why they make these things so long ya know.

I would love a pecan tree - I almost bought a place before this one that had a pecan tree on it. But that place was over on the eastern part of the state, and had maybe 10 useable acres - we wanted more than that (it had 75 acres, total - the rest was vertical land). It was a beautiful place, but the house was way too small, also.

I wonder how much it would cost to ship a walnut tree, LOL.

Peace -
