Addicted to Amazon

[Tinhack]

Now maybe you live where anything you could possibly need is available, in stock and at a competitive price within a 30 minute drive, but that's not the case for most of us.

You got that right. I'm 25 miles from the outskirts of San Antonio and 3.5 miles from my postal address town. My town has a grocery store, three auto parts stores and a small hardware store that stocks a few pipe fittings and Barbeque cookers. They always tell me they can "order it" but so can I off Amazon. Probably at half the price too. I certainly take advantage of my Prime Membership.

Call me old fashioned...and after 5 years of reading TBN posts, I think 99% of the guys on this forum are the same way...well, maybe 98%!

I still believe it's not just cops that should live with an objective to serve and to protect.

It's too easy for civilization to slip into chaos without us trying to hold the line for doing what is right.

As long as there is hope…

The problem is when hope is lost…

I’m part of a adopt a spot group that cleans up trash from creeks and storm drains…

Many of the original group have passed away or no longer able…

When looking for new volunteers the comment often heard it’s a loosing battle.

How simple it would be if people just picked up after themselves?

So, I'll give my impression of the two things I've bought of Temu. This was with their BS introduction deals, or whatever. Got a small drone for $7.47, and I guess I don't feel cheated. It Flys, it takes video, but it tracks left no matter what, kinda making it mostly unusable, or at the very least, takes a great deal of effort to keep it flying straight or hovering. It was $7.47, so whatever. Got a set of men's large "light weight water proof camo hunting pants and jacket" for like $32. How bad can it be? Well, the "jacket" is more like a a sports jersey with a hood, and probably men's small... the pants, oh boy... they are camo pajama pants, also made from jersey type material... the pants were accurate in size. Now, I know paying $32, you aren't getting Sitka or Firstlite, or even Magellan, but for $32, you could have had legit either long sleeve, or pants... Instead of basically a bad joke.
