In the old days the Monks used to make wine and cheese, etc, and then they used the money to help the poor and the needy, and to help to educate the children, etc.

Today the wine and cheese makers still help the homeless, and they still help to educate the children, but it is through paying taxes, though many donate to charity too, and of course they employ people, etc.

I bet a lot of Monks still make wine and cheese today.

Salute,

Factbox: From phone makers to farmers, the toll of Trump's trade wars



A big economic disaster is looming and not a word from the dems in an election year? China is down to 2% of agricultural buying from pre-2017. Farms of all types are closing down or at risk. Duh!

It’s your big beautiful wall in action. Only trump can save us from living in prosperous times - and he is.

https://www.militarytimes.com/news/your-military/2018/04/01/as-many-as-11800-military-families-face-deportation-issues-group-says/?fbclid=IwAR2JhGI1Jf_SleaNQw0XVq5Qc5AKHvnMH_3wqwE2bw-MoI7uj_Sp1jWAJ_U#.XVVbGIf7o4c.facebook

As many as 11,800 US military families face deportation issues.

Big number

Maybe we should check closer for citizenship before enlisting military personnel.

Maybe we’d be in fewer stupid endless wars that demand endless manpower if stupid crackheads stopped voting for draft dodgers who needed daddy’s influence to finish high school much less get into college.

Since you’re going to have a republican nominee who had had much more success molesting children than articulating policies, you should vote for the Democrat, who ever that turns out to be.

In the future we will carry phasers, like on Star Trek, and you will be able to kill a deer and everything with a phaser, you will be able to protect your home and everything with a phaser.

Laser weapons are being developed, and soon the weapons will be like the weapons on Star Trek and Star Wars.

(And yes, Bambu, you can own a phaser.)

No guns, no knives, no bows and arrows, no baseball bats, no swords, no box cutters, no spear guns are we allowed to have in public, not even in our cars.
Well we can have baseball bats and spear guns in our vehicles, but we have to be able to prove we're off to baseball practice or are going spear fishing.
I'll take a guess and say phasers will be banned too.
Totally unarmed, totally unprotected, totally defenceless, total sitting ducks, are we.
The bad people have them all though.

Ya make one mistake!

http://www.msn.com/en-au/entertainment/celebrity/lori-loughlin-and-husbands-friends-neighbors-distancing-themselves-as-college-bribery-case-moves-forward/ar-AAGjy7l?li=AAgfLCP&OCID=AVRES000

Lori Loughlin and husband Mossimo Giannulli are finding the world is a much lonelier place since they were indicted on money laundering and conspiring to commit fraud charges earlier this year amid a high-profile college cheating and bribery scandal.

According to a new report in the New York Post, friends, neighbors in the couple's Bel Air enclave and associates have really pulled back or distanced themselves from the couple,


#####

Exactly why it's best to have no friends in the first place...or only ones who you can guarantee will 'love' and support you thru thick and thin, the good times and the bad times.
Easy to get friends...people will be happy to associate with you if there's something in it for them...free trips on yacht, free holidays, free food and drink, use you to promote themselves etc.
Rip you off at after work drinks at the pub...they talk you into buying the first round, you buy them all a drink 8 x $3....$24.
Then about 4 have another drink, you have a lemon squash costing $1.
You pay out $24 and get $1 back.
Next time...they say "your first shout bambu"...another $24 down the drain.
Morons, taking advantage.
Better off with no friends.
Get a dog...it will always be your friend.

Neighbours...baaah.
You'll be lucky to get good ones, most will like you until you don't agree with them about something, or object to something they're doing or want to do.

Neighbours...baaah, always wanting to borrow your nice stuff...then you have to go chase them to get it back....or they damage your nice stuff they borrowed, return it damaged and never offer to pay.

Wow. Your life sucks. Either that or your outlook on life.

Keeping you disarmed is a really good idea. You should not be given a knife or fork to eat food with. Shovel your coal with a spoon.

The more I read from bambu the more I think he is only a weapon away from being the lead story on Australia's nine o'clock news.

I too once met a girl in Central Park, but it is not much to remember. What I remember is the time John Wayne killed three men with a carbine as he was falling to the dusty street in Stagecoach, and the time the kitten found Orson Welles in the doorway in The Third Man.

"According to police, the series of shootings, which began when he shot a neighbor who was collecting money for Coats for Kids, ended two blood soaked hours later when, ironically, the Darwin man turned the gun on himself, and missed."

There are more than 3 million legal guns in Australia. [24million population]

Quote
Australians now own more guns in total than they did before the 1996 crackdown, according to figures from 2016 - the last time they were comprehensively studied. That amounts to more than three million firearms, according to separate government statistics. May 15, 2018

Given all his anti-science posts, I wouldn't be at all surprised if he turned a gun on Darwin.
