Reflecting on my business made me recall something: Many of our forefathers and many poorer people today didn't just have one job or even two jobs working shifts. Most had an occupation at which they worked and their household did whatever it could to get more money or cut costs. For example, if you wanted some extra cash maybe your wife would flowers to sell in town to restaurants for their tables...

@deprecated_ii lol

@Shadowman311 I'm looking forward to his discourse on foreign trade since he made such good points in this last segment.

@Stahesh It is better than clinging to something that doesn't work. This whole thing has taught me never to be afraid of opening a business. Just file the paperwork and start. There is nothing magical or scary about it.

@lonestarr Quite the find

After a few years of work, I have decided to close down my gardening, retail business because it's not profitable enough to justify the continued investment that I can spare in my local area.

On to the next endeavor!
Perhaps once my orchard becomes productive, I'll be able to have a market stall at the farmers' markets in the area instead.

@Gonzo17 Not since Coolidge have we had a decent president.

@Invictus We all live lives of crime.

@ButtWorldsMan I wasn't expecting it, but I'm not surprised.

@Shlomo I wonder if some single mothers who have children and a pitbull lose their children because the dog doesn't see the child as a part of their family but as a drain on her love and affection.

@deprecated_ii I looked at it, and I'm asked myself "What am I missing?" Is there some syntactical trick question I don't understand?

If it really is just basic algebra, then x = 2.

@sickburnbro The nationalization of the steel industry will not end well.

@RoninGrey @Tfmonkey If hand-drawn, that is very good!

@Shadowman311 He sounds very helpful, if not a little droll.

@Tfmonkey I too am a fan of instrumental-only sax and chill. Throw in a wholesome waifu and we're good to go.

@RoninGrey Of course: That's because you don't own her. You can't go around defacing others' property, especially not the state's property.

@Xenophon Because number go up

@Autumn Good.

@cowanon @Shlomo It never is. Farm subsidies and bailouts go to the mega-farms who can afford lobbyists.

I had the marvelous opportunity to watch the birds peck about the bird feeder outside my window this morning as the sun was coming up over the woods outside my homestead.

I'm so happy I left my residence in the city and can work remotely.
