The other day a friend of mine gave me a tip that you can obtain an entire case of bananas from most Wal-Marts in the nation simply by contacting the Produce Manager and asking them to take their old bananas off of their hands. The standard cost is only $5! There are instances in which some of the Wal-Marts have elected to donate their used produce to Food Banks or other community help centers, but it’s certainly doable a lot of the time in many areas of the U.S. Regardless of how you feel...

BETTER GET YOUR PEANUT BUTTER THIS WEEKEND. IT WILL BE UP 40% ON MONDAY DUE TO CROP DAMAGE. THAT EXPLAINS WHY SAMS CLUB WAS OUT OF MY FAVORED JIF PEANUT BUTTER ALL WEEK LONG. PASS IT ON.

It’s how I formulate an articulate and sound argument on a particular issue. I think I started it as a teenager when I plotted how I was going to rationally get away with pushing the envelope with my mother’s rules. So, today, I am going to let you in on an argument that I’ve been having with myself and...

June 12, 2007. That was a day I experienced a moment of euphoria as a concern of mine had just been satisfied completely. That was the day I discovered you could bottle butter. It was a very, very happy day for me, until I began doing research on it. There were an abundance of comments surfacing on the internet stating that bottling butter simply wasn’t safe because it was “impossible” to get rid of any botulism. My joy was squashed. But after speaking to many lifetime emergency...
