FREE WATER TESTING Full Line of Hardware And Building Materials July 4th is around the corner. Everyone who loves this country, their freedoms, put out an Atwer\car\ flag. Doesn't matter the size. It's time to unite. God bless the USA. India nearly one billion voters, over one million polling places, and 744 political par ties. Sounds like fertile ground for a Domin ion voting system. Central FL leprosy case uptick. Armadillos (1 million in FL) being studied for soil con tamination spread. Locally, nipping in the bud, 6 shot in last 2 months. Dubai scientist thinks a complete head transplant will be possible in next 8 years. Creepy but then some could use one. OK you politicians. We have spoken, over 80% in favor of senior tax relief.

The freedoms, rights, peace, and safety of Amer\car\s are in spite of their government's military adventures, not because of them- Laurence M. Vance, "Memorial Day" [2024] I'm a Texan. 4 brothers, brother-in-law and cousin, all served in second World War. All came come except my cousin. Praise Sod for our wonderful warriors! If they'll get away with taking President Trump down on trumped up charges, don't think they won't take down the average Amer\car\ if we get in the way of their agen da to destroy this country. The consolidation of the states into one vast empire sure to be aggressive abroad and despotic at home will be the certain precursor of ruin which has overwhelmed all that preceded it.-Former Confederate Sen. Robert E. Lee The World Health Organization's pandem ic preparedness treaty was designed to steal the sovereignty of nations and impose authoritarian dictates which would have laid the foundation for global government. Victo- ry-It failed to pass. After all these years they want to pave Coston Road, the little short one lane peace ful dirt road!
