    No such thing as 401k's back when home loans were 14 -16% but the stock market was in the total crapper back then too. How many remember when the lines for gasoline were a 1/2 a block long? Mid 70's maybe? Nope, nothing new here.


    But.. everyone's upset that THIS IS THE WORST TIME EVER.


    EVER!

    Did you hear?



    :)

    Cause those guys storming Normandy had it so easy.

    This is ONLY part of the issue/equation.
    As Gunbunnies stated the prices is the other part. Tiktok and youtube has tons of videos on what the price of a house in 1950, 1970, 2000 and now vs the medium income.

    While prices and salary where lower and interest rate high then one could still afford a house, car and take a vacation on a single family income.

    That is not the case now. Even on a single income (avergae) one can barely stay afloat.

    The water level is at our neck as a country. Once food is unavailable, be it at the phywcial store shelves or because the masses can't buy it at kfc, mcd, etc.. that is when the water will be at our noses...


    Well, everyone wanted "free" money from the government to NOT go to work.
    And then yelled at people bringing up the economy saying they were just worried about money.

    Well, this is the result.
    The economy puts food on the table, heat in the house, and toys to have.

    Anyone buy ammo for a gun before you bought said gun? :rockwoot: Bought 350 legend target ammo before going to buy it tomorrow. Knew they didn't have any by looking online.
    I’ve bought car parts for a car I didn’t have yet lol never got that car…

    Okay.
    Got some stuff for the Halloween display.
    That I probably should start putting together so it's not the week before.
    And I have to decide how to do it.


    Right now, when I put together the 4th (last) face, I will have 28 outputs used, out of 32 available.
    (2 controllers, 16 outputs each)
    Of course, if the 4 spares aren't enough, then add a 3rd controller.

    So, 5 new pumpkins.
    I either put a flickering bulb in like the others already there, or just put a LED bulb in, and control off of a spare output. Maybe to beat with the music.

    Also, I bought 2 foot by 4 foot plywood panels (two of them).
    I can drill them out for light strings to go on. Like the 'singing faces' I have.
    Except, nothing that complicated. Each existing singing face is 7 outputs used.
    Instead, maybe a skull, where the jaw moves up and down. So only 2 outputs.
    Or a bat, with different wings to light up, make it look like it moves. But not the bat, cause I already have 2 stationary lit bats.. and a cat.

    So, hummmm, what to make with the plywood.

    Haven't had Pizza Slut in probably 10 years. :puke:

    Tonight was Grangers. Daughter went to a friend's for the night, so out to dinner we went. They were actually filming scenes for a movie. 219 I believe it's called A crime type of series that is on prime about a Gary cops murder. Not sure if based on the Gary cop that was shot in his squad a few years back or if it's fictional

    Well, since they want $140 for a happy halloween sign..
    I could make my own.
    Maybe do the letters in orange and purple, and have the controller cycle between the two
