‘Peace and quiet’ is not some kind of wildly unreasonable expectation and it’s violation is very often perpetuated by self-centered, low-IQ individuals…

I know we’re talking about a vehicle and anti-theft measures come into play, but isn’t it just a little incongruent that one can easily program something like a garage door opener but a car fob requires $100’s to get ‘programmed’?…

I think it’s time to consider the theory that conservatives have lost the drop and ceded many cultural issues by -among other things- turning their backs on the likes of Hollywood and the arts in general.

Money talks in this realm and wealthy conservatives could prolly move the needle away from the freak by simply leveraging donations/grants/investment in the arts, rather than ignoring them altogether.

Artists, will follow the money, even if they bitch about who’s paying…

Part of my line migrated to Jennings in search of rice farming jobs - later 19th century - never found much success.

My great-grandfather, who hard-scrabbled his way through many jobs (wagon teamster, carpenter, laborer, farm hand, etc.).

Once, he tried his hand at farming by growing a strawberry patch. The day came to load up and take his strawberries to market.

Problem was he picked too soon for the market and between that, a long wagon trip, and a blistering heat wave, the crop -and his dream- was mostly spoiled by the time he got to market and he could sell hardly any.

To this day, his line (myself included) feels -and prolly is- cursed by having the entrepreneurial spirit and even insight but not the knack or luck to go with it -hahaha.

TLDR: farming and marketing farm goods ain’t easy…
