Thought I'd help the economy today and set out to buy my son something "Made in America" Wow not easy! After a hour or so picking up things from Countries I never knew existed. I thought of a horse born last year on my buddies farm or some great looking quarter saw oak from the local mill. neither were practical but guaranteed. Ended up having a sweat shirt printed "I was Made in America.. Legally":laughing7:

RJC ,
What we are all trying to say is that we like you and enjoy most of your input . You are going to deprive us of your company here if you continue to push the moderators into the corner where they have to decide where their duty lies .
They have their job to do for the benefit of all and are humans too .
I love ya ,man . Don't cause them to have to make you go away ...................

Buy from a local artisan, arts/crafts fair, farm or your local small biz ( even if the item is imported), etc. if its local its made in America. Just realize that you are likely to have to pay more and be able to buy less.

As I always say, don't ***** when Walmart, target or Home Depot takes over your quaint small home town if you just want to buy the cheapest and most stuff. Frankly I think we all need to learn how to live with less in the US and reevaluate our life priorities.

Why Treasure Hunter I am shocked :occasion14: Actually i didnt post that picture to make a political statement,I posted it for a number of reasons. 1-I like it, 2-It speaks the truth,3-pictures of Geronimo are very very rare and it deserves to be posted.
