Debbie and I put in over 4,000 miles a year traveling by car from our official residence in Key West, 90 miles from Cuba, to our summer home Newport, RI. We never hit the road without a full compliment of firepower. First, I do not want to leave behind a stash of guns that could […]
Food Horror
Animal Factory starts readers off: “While human sewage is treated to kill pathogens, animal waste is not.
