My favorite by far was The Stand, some of his earlier works like Christine, Cujo, Pet Cemetary, etc. were okay but The Stand blew them all away in my opinion. It was a real chore to read at close to 1000 pages but for me it was a book I found difficult to put down until I finished it. His more modern works after that I'm really not the familiar with.
Check out Swan Song by McCammeron

First off it's important to make a serious distinction between crypto and Bitcoin, there are a lot of different forms of crypto but most of them do very poorly. Bitcoin is doing so well because it's been around a long time and as more people got in on it the value has grown substantially. There are a couple of other crpto's doing okay but still no where near as good as Bitcoin. The real problem with Bitcoin or any crypto for that matter is that you can't really spend it anywhere xcept maybe the black market. First you have to sell it off but as soon as you do it's value goes down. If you can sell it all off before it goes down much no big deal and if you got in on the early stages when it was drt cheap you'll be handsomely rewarded at it's current value. If you can't sell it off quickly you're going to take losses at some point. Most of the people getting in now will be the ones most likely to take a big loss down the road. I did hear a report not long ago that if promissing for Bitcoin and could see it's value continue to rise and in a big way. Basically there is a woman in congress that has introduce new legislation proposing that the US stop having it's currency back by the Federal Reserve but instead have it back by Bitcoin. if I understand the proposal correctly the plan is to take all the gold in Fort Knox and use it to buy 100 Billion in bitcoin. If that happens thenin order to guarentee it keeps it's value to back the mony, the US will be forced to constantly keep buying more and more as others cash theirs in and the value drops. It will be the only way the US can keep the value up. From what I'm hearing I wouldn't get in now because to do anything meaningful means you have to invest quite a lot. If however I had gotten in when it was low I''d hold on to it and watch it carefully and wait to see if this proposal to back the currency with bitcoin goes thru and then sell after the increase from the US buying 100 Billion in Bitcoin. I would want to be ready to move quick though because I bet that most holding any large amounts of bitcoin now will also be looking to cash out after that..

Explain your support of a blanket pardon for crimes not specified for a period of time for anyone?
Then explain how oranve man made the Democratic regime do it.
All while being aware nothing changed for the preceeding time period of say six months regards intent.
Same people said the same shit then as now, we have the tapes.
The biggest travesty justice ever to go down in the United States History was committed by Joe Biden when he swore up and down for years, he wouldn’t pardon his son. Now, does he not only pardon his son he gives him a free ride for the last 10 years of crime along with himself… that blanket pardon takes away anybody’s ability to dig into Joe Biden’s massive corruptness. They don’t call the Biden crimes syndicate for nothing .when can only hope that Joe expires before he can enjoy all the money he stole from the American people.

Trump didn't do either.


Correct me if I am wrong , you said DJT didn’t do either

you were referring to the post by Goldhedge where he said , “
I see it differently.

Trump didn't 'break' them... that's they way they've always been and remain so today...

He exposed them. “..

You said he did neither.

I politely disagreed and said DJT exposed the fake media , what many people call the Main Stream Media…

anyway , I’m dropping any more remarks on this topic and instead I will drink some coffee

We had dinner one night at a place on Burnaby mountain. The waitress asked us what we had done during our visit. I rattled off all the places we went. She said I've lived here 12 years and haven't been to many of those places.

We decided we would locate to Abbotsford, if our immigrations applications were approved, after an extensive search in 2004.
I like the Fraser Valley area around Abbotsford. We lived a little further east of their for several months when I worked at a provincial park.
I've met travellers who pack a significant amount of time into going places, not my cup of tea but working in public parks, museums and historic sites I've met a lot of travellers. Who seem to enjoy a busy schedule.
