groan vestu junk One significant way the Super Nintendo improved on the NES was how licensed games were treated. Many people have a bad association with licensed games back in the 80s just look at NES games like X-Men � Back to the Future � even stuff like Where's Waldo heck he could go all the way back to ET on the Atari 2600 the Super Nintendo wasn�t necessarily void of bad licensed games but if your game was being made by Konami then you were in good hands They made stuff like The Tiny Toon Adventures games, Batman Returns, Adventures of Batman and Robin, Turtles in Time, and Biker Mice from Mars. This game was based on the Saturday morning cartoon of the same name back when you could just throw random stuff together and bam, you got a TV show. Trucker Geese from Tallahassee, sure. Unicycle Urchins from Utica, even better. Jon Stossel Apostles with Colossal Fossils? Okay, maybe not. The point is, Biker Mice from Mars sounds made up, but it was indeed a real show. And it was a pretty decent one too. There's three anthropomorphic mice who drive motorcycles. Their home plan out of Mars had been conquered by the Plutarchians, so now they've tasked themselves to defend Earth from a similar invasion. We've got Plutarchians disguised as humans hatching evil schemes, we've got bionic arms and lasers, bumbling bad guys named Grease Pit and Fred. It's a good time. Rather than make a typical side-scrolling action platformer or a beat-em-up, Konami opted for a multiplayer combat racing game. Well, they are Biker Mice after all. There's six playable racers here, a mix of the three Biker Mice, Throttle, Moto and Vinny, along with three villains, Dr. Carbuncle, Grease Pit, and the evil Lawrence Limburger. There's two game modes, one's a regular race circuit where you race five laps to the finish, the other is a battle mode where you just try and survive to the end. And what's cool is that both modes support two players, and both modes reward you after each race with money. So you can buy better weapons, better engines, better armor, and better grip or tire strength, so to speak. Another difference I should point out between the two game modes is that in battle mode you have to finish in the top three to advance, whereas in the main race circuit you have to finish in the top three in points after six races. Take three hits in the main circuit mode and you just kind of sit there pondering your fate before you resume the race. Take three hits in battle mode and you're done. After each lap you get two things, a random item you use with the A button and another item specific to your character that can be used with the Y button. For instance, Vinny gets three jumps, Dr. Carbuncle gets eight projectiles, and so on. The special item you get is randomized Mario Kart style and it can be anything from extra money to a speed boost, invincibility, a timer that temporarily stops all other racers, or a projectile that makes other racers go boom. You can also set traps like stuff that temporarily turns a racer into whatever this thing is. You can also use the L and R buttons to sideswipe other racers, and hold down on the D pad to pop a wheelie. Now as you can see, this game has an isometric viewpoint, and while this game may look kinda goofy to play, the controls are spot on, similar to another isometric combat racing game, Rock and Roll Racing. I think I like Biker Mice from Mars better though, because each racer has their own distinct feel to them, if that makes sense, and plus each racer also has a special ability. For instance, if you pick Vinny, you can do what the game calls a tornado twirl when you press the L or R buttons while pressing left or right on the D pad. This helps with sharp turns, however you really have to get the timing right or you might flail out of control. Conversely, Limburger's special ability is a boost of speed you get by tapping the shoulder buttons on a turn. Again, the timing is tough to get down, but yeah, every racer has their own special ability, usually related to turning, which is really cool, it kinda feels like a reward for learning the feel of the controls for a particular racer. Having said that, this game can be tough for newcomers if you pick the wrong guy. I would suggest staying away from the three villains if this is your first time playing, they're just too finicky and tough to keep under control. I would start with either Throttle or Modo, they're probably the most balanced, and if you're feeling ambitious, try out Vinny, he's got the best turning grip and one of the best acceleration ratings, but his top speed sucks. The thing is though, if you're able to place high in the first few races you can upgrade Vinny's engine right away, and his top speed gets better and better. Keep getting engine upgrades and before you know it, Vinny is winning every single race for you no problem. It's little points of strategy like that that helps separate Biker Mice from Mars from other racing games of its time. There's all sorts of small things in this game that add up to what makes for a surprisingly nuanced racer. To give another example, on jumps you can press up while you're in the air and press down on a downslope when you land, just like an Excitebike, to give yourself just a tiny bit of extra speed. You can also take advantage of this game's oddball viewpoint by placing mines in areas the other player can't see. That's always fun. And of course there's also the matter of learning the tracks themselves. There's 25 of them in this game, and there's all sorts of hazards you gotta deal with like fire shooting out of the ground, deep water you can fall into, and fans that will try and blow you off the track. There's some interesting trivia associated with this title as well, like the fact that this game was never released in Japan. I guess motorcycle driving rodents just weren't their thing. This game did get a PAL region release, but what's funny is that it got all sorts of Snickers product placement all over the place. Hey, it wouldn't be proper racing without sponsors everywhere. Anyway, yeah, on the surface Biker Mice from Mars is a solid game. You race and make stuff go boom, but what I really appreciate in this one is the level of detail beneath the surface. Each of the six racers are unique and take some time to learn the best way to use each one. It's a bit of a surprise for me. I did touch on this game on an earlier video, but I only talked about it for like a minute, and when I revisited this game, I was surprised to see the amount of depth that's here. Also, I should probably mention that this game also looks and sounds fantastic. I mean, the music here is top notch. Biker Mice from Mars is a surprisingly deep combat racing game, and it's easily one of the very best multiplayer games on the Super Nintendo. All right, I want to thank you for watching, and I hope you have a great rest of your day.


So if anyone has any questions for these two gentlemen, you can walk up to the mics and Go ahead Hi, this is for Frank You're talk earlier when you're talking about attachment and Looking at the modern-day roles of attachment parenting or the lack of attachment parenting I just would like to kind of hear your views on what's happened, you know from infancy and beyond with that as in modern trends Compared to hunter-gatherer You know wearing our babies in our slings Co-sleeping etc Right. Well one trend I can speak to that I've tracked a little bit is Related to the sort of the pendulum pendulum effect from the germ theory that really came to the fore in the 19th century and Back then it was all about, you know starting with Louis Pasteur And this discovery that pathogens could make us sick and this Gradual dawning on the medical community that we had to be cleaner and cleaner and cleaner and by the early 20th century we got to the point where sterilization including children's environments became this obsession really and Then this idea that children should be raised in their individual cribs that should be sanitized and basically world-proofed That led to this this trend of isolation away from human contact and The big the big insight came with the Romanian orphanage story I don't know how many people have tracked that this is a this is a big story in massage school if you ever go there Where after the the reign of this particular dictator in Romania? They came in and they discovered that some of the orphanages where the children were so isolated and so neglected and so touch deprived that they failed to develop normally they failed to thrive and various cultures are Described in these terms as well as being high-touch and low-touch cultures American culture is a pretty low-touch culture and that's something that we're now starting to see maybe turn around a little bit And I would hope so That's the trend My question is for Peter Peter you painted a very idyllic picture of the children in the hunter-gathered societies in our modern world Though particularly as parenting we spend a lot of time in conflict resolution amongst the kids themselves And the kids get into a hassle Joey bit me in the leg What am I gonna do about it? What you didn't talk about though, and I'd love to hear it Is there the same kind of conflict in those societies and do the parents and hunter-gatherers? Are they the conflict resolution agents or do the children do it amongst themselves? from from what I've heard from the from the Anthropologists I've talked to and again. I haven't studied this directly There's remarkably little conflict The kids don't fight The They they never go tattling to their parents They never go to their parents to saw or to other adults to solve these solve problems amongst them Here's what I think and let me also say that I have also been studying children In fact my own empirical research is not in hunter-gathered cultures It's in a particular school called the Sudbury Valley school. That's 35 miles west of here It's a school that's been in existence for 45 years now And it didn't set itself up to model a hunter-gatherer band But I think in terms of the essential Environment for child development it models a hunter-gatherer band It's a school believe it or not where kids are allowed to play and explore on their own all day long The kids are age four which I said that hunter-gatherer bands It's age four that you have the age of that you're at the age of reason from age four on through high school age And they're all playing together All day long just like in a hunter-gatherer culture. There's woods there. There's a state park nearby. They can go into the park There's a pond There's computers of course. There's books. There's woodworking equipment. There's the kitchen The school operates on a per pupil cost of half of what the public school operates and The learning occurs through play and exploration now these kids There are about 200 kids and about nine or ten staff members the kids are not being watched There's no necessity for adults to stamp in and conflict resolution what there is however That's a little different from a hunter-gatherer band because there's in that in some sense I think you do need to make adjustments in a hunter-gatherer band. There's a total of about 30 to 60 people of whom less than half would be kids So there's not a lot of kids here You've got a huge number of kids and a relatively small number of adults what the school has based on our principles of democracy is a judicial system and The kids and there's this there's a democratic way of making the rules and the kids make the rules through school meeting and They enforce the rules through this judicial system. I think and at this school I had a I had a graduate student who spent Hundreds of days or at least at least a hundred and fifty days doing observations at the school And he said the most impressive thing to him was that he didn't see any bullying He didn't see any real conflict and when there was conflict they would resolve it like an older kid would step in and resolve it Or it would be resolved through the judicial system I think that there are several things that about both a hunter-gatherer culture and about the Sudbury Valley School That leads to no bullying One is they're part of a community that really identifies with one another in the hunter-gatherer band They're part of the same band at Sudbury Valley School. They're part of the same School community which they value they feel they own it. They don't feel like they're being forced by law to be there This is their place So they value the community and they value the others in the community Secondly age mixing is a tremendous factor in all of this When you put kids who are all the same age together they become competitive But age same play is a complete artifact of our school system. It never occurred beforehand There was never any such thing Kids always played in age mix groups and if you're an age in an age mix group What's the point of being competitive and what's the value in in in beating up a littler kid? I don't and also what you find is When you do find anything that verges on bullying the older kids are very protective. So you have a 11 year old that seems to be seems to be bothering a 9 year old or an 8 year old but a 15 year old nearby sees and he says hey cut it out You know and and there's something about a 15 year old who's much more effective at that than an adult is Because that 11 year olds really wants to be like the 15 year old in some sense You know adults are too far removed to think that they have any understanding of what it's like to be a kid But a kid who's just a few years older isn't so I think that that I think that plays a role that We have established a culture a in which Kids don't have much opportunity to solve their own problems And so they don't learn how to do it and then it becomes a self-fulfilling prophecy We say hey see they can't solve their own problems. So we're going to have to solve it for them We get ourselves into that trap I've probably said enough about it Thank you Actually, there's not a waiting list and not surprisingly You know very few people in our culture believe such a school can work this school has been going on for 45 years It's more well documented than any other private school. I know of there are books studied There are books I did a study of the graduates and published it and the American Journal of Education as far as I know There are no educators who have paid any attention to that argument to that article There are books published based on studies of the graduates of the school There's no question, but what this school works and yet?  It's amazing that the school gets away with that legally at this point, but it does It does have it has made various compromises to do with the sentiment But most parents are just not going to do that because they don't trust their children They don't believe that their child can take care of himself or herself and they also believe in the myth That if you don't follow the typical resume if you don't go to grade one to grade two You take all the standardized tests Then you're cutting your options short in this culture You won't be able to go to college or at least not a good college and so on and so forth But this school has proven over and over again that that's not true Kids who've never taken a course who just have played and explored followed their own interests Throughout their childhood have gone on to schools like MIT and so on and so forth. Some of them are professors now They've gone into every realm Yeah, you know, we have certain beliefs in our society even many people say well, it's too bad This is true, but it's true and therefore I've got to send my child or teachers who will say this You know my job is to get the child into College and to do that I've got to get them to get these grades and do well and this is my job We we don't believe that we can be idealists, but we can We really can it's not that hopeless. We have we have an amazing society when you think about it There are all kinds of opportunities to make a living You know Anybody who has a real skill can find a way to make if they have a real skill and a real passion They can find a way to make a living and the task is to find out what your passion is But we have a school system that doesn't let people discover their passion because it doesn't give them time Everybody the no child left behind attitude, which is just the logical conclusion of what we've been doing all time means that everybody's supposed to go down the same path and You know, and so everybody's being trained as a scholar whether that's their orientation or not There are many graduates from the Sudbury Valley School who go on to become Craftsmen or artists and they're not scholars, but they're wonderful in what they do and there are others who go on to become scholars But that's because they became passionate about some scholarly Subject the real the real challenge is not you know It's easy to learn stuff when you're interested in it. The real challenge is to find out what you're interested in What's that is the tuition it's about seven thousand dollars a year for your first child And less after that Compare that to fifteen thousand dollars a year that the that the same town pays per pupil for public school education So this is not expensive education. It's way less than most private schools You won't find another private school that costs so little and why is that is because you don't need a lot of staff because the kids are learning self-directed and they're learning from other kids and When they do go to staff, they're getting Individual attention around exactly what they want and the staff members are spending zero time on discipline And are able because the discipline takes care of itself because of the structure of the school What's that? They bring their own lunch. Yeah, there's not a school lunch program They there is a kitchen and a lot of kids are into cooking and a lot of kids cook their Some sometimes as a money-making thing to the kids who let's say they're kids who want to buy a certain kind of playground Equipment they'll make money for it by cooking lunch and selling it Can you say again what the name of the school is the Sudbury Valley school, I'm sorry Sudbury Valley Southbury Valley Sudbury Sudbury Valley Have any have any of the students been followed after graduation and yeah, and in fact if you those who are interested This is the handout that I gave out in my talk my study of the graduates Oh, I guess my study isn't listed there But some of my other research that refers to that study is listed there if you also look at my blog It's psychology today called free to learn I have a number of Discussions of the school if you look at the school's website Sudbury Valley school You will find that there are about 40 other schools throughout the world that are explicitly modeled after Sudbury Valley About 25 of them in the United States and the others in other countries So this is a movement that is that is becoming a worldwide movement My questions for Frank In your talk you spoke a lot about the need for a more holistic community-centered approach to our Well-being because we are social animals and I know that a lot of people in the community myself included our Nontheistic shall we say do you think there's a need for or a place for a sort of secular spirituality in the paleo community do we need to figure out a way to practice something that is Exterior to ourselves, or do you think that just basic community stuff will fill that void I? Think it's this I Don't think it's something that can or should be imposed upon anyone, but I do think it's something that a Lot of people hunger for and it does have a place I think it's a human universal to drive towards something larger than ourselves and to Experience something that we would describe as spiritual and it is part of our history And whether you describe it in terms of brain science or just the desire to reach out into the universe I don't think it matters a whole lot, and it could range even from Environmentalism and ecology being a way to access something larger than ourselves I think that has a place all the way to traditional Disciplines and traditional religions. I think it all can't fit so it's a it's a hunger we have I Guess we're done with questions, and so as soon as we get the text set up for our next talk We'll begin with Nora get gout us


Hi guys. Hello. Welcome to Stampin' Chat with Stampin' Jill. I'm Aubrey and I'm Beth. It's like a little script. I know it is. Jill is not with us again today. She is actually traveling to Virginia today to visit her oldest daughter, Rachelle. Yep. So she'll be gone this week, which I'm sure she's gonna have a ball. They're gonna go and replace in some areas back there that they love. Rachelle's husband's in the Air Force, who's actually our brother. Yes. So he's in the Air Force stationed at Langley and they are living, I think, just outside of Richmond. Is that right? I think. Oh no. Maybe that's where they're flying into. They're flying into Richmond. Yeah. I don't. I know. It's not my forte to know what's back there. I just know Washington D.C. I know. They're not far from there. Yeah, but they're excited. I know they're going to Colonial Williamsburg, which Jill has been before and really loved, so she had mentioned that, but she's just really excited just to see her daughter and her granddaughter and her son-in-law. It'll be fun. Yes. So we'll miss her this week, but we thought we could show you some new product again today and feature just one thing that we showed you last week. Yes. So this is the unbounded beauty memories and more card pack. So we showed you the cute, cute designer series paper and all that, but this is the card pack that kind of coordinates with that. So there's total, I guess there's 18. No. No, because 18 plus 10. 28. 28. Cards. Yeah. Like back in front. Yeah. And they're cute sizes. This is like a three by four and this is a four by six size. Yes. And we're going to just kind of play and make some cards. We're using the memories and more cards and envelopes too. They have the different sizes. They come in the assorted pack with the small size. This is their pre-scored cards and envelopes and then the bigger size pre-scored cards and envelopes. Right. So we're going to just play. We also have accessories. Yeah. All the ribbon, which we really haven't even dug into yet. So. Well, and these are so fun because they feature a lot of the new in colors. Yes. Right. Do they feature all five? I think so. Yeah. I think that's what, in this suite, what is kind of in there. Kind of the fun part of it. That's why we wanted to. So these cards are fun because they've got little sentiments on them, but remember everything is double-sided. So it's kind of like a little puzzle trying to figure out how to put your cards together, which is so fun. I know. I'm like, and I'm torn because I love this floral piece. I kind of want to cut it out and pop it up. That's what I thought when I saw it. The back is so cute. The nice thing is if you cut this out, you've got a cute couple of little strips. I guess it might be going the wrong way for the way we like it. You get two of each. So Aubrey and I have split the pack between us, but that doesn't mean that you have to share your pack. Right. You could always kind of do your own thing. So let's see. Ramona, I hope you've got you on there still. We're way excited to be with you. Susan Manlove, my heaven Susan. I remember meeting you years and years and years ago. Susan is on our team from Delaware. Oh, awesome. But I haven't, I don't think I've seen her at an event in like a long, long time. So it's so good to see you. I'm glad she's here. I know. Awesome. Okay. Well, let's get playing. It's fun too because there's different sayings in here too.  You could just slap that on a card and call it good. Well, it's cute because I feel like Jen was just wearing a shirt that looked just like that the other day. Oh, yeah. On Easter. Easter. Kind of that tie dye, spring color look. Well, I guess not on Easter on Saturday. Oh, on Saturday. We, our families are, I don't know how how many, how many of you know, but we're very close. Mine and Beth's family and Jill's family. You might think we're all one family, but we technically are two different ones. Beth married Jill's son. So and then my brother married Jill's daughter. So we're linked in lots of ways, but we're very close. We always do Easter together. It's kind of a big, and your mom. Yeah. Yes. And my our parents are just I like adoptive grandparents to all just over here. Anyway, we'll tell you because that's I was just holding Camden. Look, he drooled on my shoulder. Can you see it? I was tickling us back and he was falling asleep. The best like little moment. So yes, we are the crazy people who are with our family all the time and work with our family. And it's wonderful. And we love that. Yes. But so, but yeah, adoptive grandparents all around Aubrey's kids called Dan and Jill. Grandma Jill and Papa Olson.  Let's see. Oh, I'm Scotland. Hi, Gil. I'm going to say it's Jill. Jill. I bet that's Jill. Probably. Sorry. I said that wrong. Jill Ramsey. Awesome. We're so glad to join us. I wonder what time it is in Scotland right now. Oh, well, I would know because we were there last a year ago. I know. Is it nine hours difference? Is that one nine hours? Seven. I can remember. I think that's about it. Look how cute. Even just so simple. Happy birthday. This is the new color. Let's see if I remember Aubrey. Summer splash. New in color. I think this is one of the most popular ones. So cute. At least at when we were at on stage. Everyone had voted for this. So that's so simple. You could just do that. You could even add some little embellishments. I guess I should do that. Yes, gotta add something. You can judge them up and make them kind of fun. But really, you could just slap it on there and call it good. People would still think it's amazing. I know. Like I worked really hard on it. Love that. And the price point on these are so fun. I actually love to have these memories and work card packs and give them to my kids and just let them kind of play and do different things because they you really can't mess it up. I guess is the thing, right? Oh, let's see. It is eight 10 p.m. there. So seven hours ahead of where we are right now. Well, good even easy. I know. Thanks for joining us. I'm gonna see if I can do this. I saw Jill doing this not long ago. I don't have a pad and don't get mad. Wink of Stella. Splash it on there. Have you guys ever done that before? You probably let's see if I can show you on camera. You might be able to take a picture and see it better. We do this with markers sometimes too, but sometimes it will just give like a fun glimmer. I don't know if you can see it. I'll take a picture later so you can see it. But it is a fun way to use your Wink of Stella when you just want a little extra. Yes. Kind of fun. This is cute. Cute colors. I know it's like so springy right now. Do you have a take your pick tool? Oh, or generally, sorry, my drawers. No, I was just talking about how bad it is over there.  I look real good on the outside, but my drawers are a mess. And my desk is very clean, but not inside the drawers. Yeah, a little crazy. She's hiding all her secrets. We are just in the midst of getting ready for a virtual get together right now and it just takes so much extra brain power. So I just don't take the time. That's it. I just don't take the time. I have the time. I just don't take it. So cute. So simple, right? Happy birthday. Just a fun little card that you can send or give to someone that we just don't cute. I want to do that in everything. I love us. Oh, I love it. Really cute. I love the pretty and pink with that petunia pot. I know. That's a fun company. They're a great pretty and then with that summer splash just splashed in there. All right, I do want to cut out this one. What one? I'm gonna cut out the one. This? Yeah. Okay, then I want to use the other side. I'll use the other side for something. I'm sure if you want to. Okay, I'll cut it out for me. It will be perfect. I have no doubt. Alan, we're hanging out with our friends right now. I know. These are cute little size of card too. They are cute. Just kind of like a little greeting card that you can give to someone. I know I should do a small one. But I really look how cute. I'll take a small one and oh, that's really thank you so very much. Oh, I love that. Oh, Margot's with us too. Hi, Margot. Hello. We are so glad to see you. Margot, we have an extra cat friend here this week. Me too. Jack, I don't know if you remember Jack from do you know? I think Margot's the one who introduced Ryan to Jack. Oh, that's right. I want to say that Margot because Jack is a rescue and I think Margot is the one who kind of I think you're trying to find him. Is that the do you remember? I do. I think you're right about that. Yeah. She is the reason she is the awesome reason that we have that crazy cat. Well, he's not always here. He's just here because Ryan's sitting for Dan and Jill. So the thing that's missing from these packs that we used to have are the stickers. Yes. I'm just realizing. Yeah, it doesn't. There aren't the stickers which is okay. That is okay because we can use other um embellishments with it. Oh, this is cute. Maybe I'll cut this. It's always fun just to like come up with little ideas and sometimes we'll prepare for these lives and try to kind of create some stuff ahead of time or familiarize yourself and we did not do that today. No, we just did not have we didn't take the time to do it. Which that's okay. That is okay. A little more on the fly. Really get you get the real deal. Real deal. That's cute. Look at those colors together. Oh, that is cute. I like it. Sideways like that. It was like paper was pretty that way, but I just cut it like that. Yeah, that is really fun. Just a layer. That's cute. I wonder if that could be a little gift card holder on the inside too. You could like tuck a little gift card in there. Oh, good idea. That would be cute. Okay, let me play with that for ideas. Oh, I like that one too. This would be fun to put together with with the stamp set too. Did you look to see if it coordinated? Yes, yes, you could use the stamp set. You could add the paper and there's dies and everything. So if you wanted to go all out a little crazy, yeah. But nice to keep it simple every now and then. Yeah, that's kind of my favorite, I guess. Oh, I like it with the, are you doing orange or purple? I'm gonna do purple. What were you gonna say? With the orange. Well, with the orange, um, was it on this side of this? Yeah, with. Isn't that cute? It's so cute. Yeah, I love that print. It has, I don't, maybe you can't see it in, can I just. We could try. You see the little orange arrows. Maybe the bigger one. It just has like little orange arrows on it. It's really cute. Crazy. So cute. I know. Pictures sometimes are a little easier to see. See all the little details. So we will remember. We post all of the pictures of the projects that we make in our, do you remember the name of it? Uh huh. Stamping Jill VIP, VIP group. Facebook group. Yeah. On Facebook. That was perfect. Thanks, thanks. I try. Okay, that's cute. Oh, it's hard to choose which site to do because they're also. I know. It's like, I don't want to cover up a site. You know. Okay, so what if we do like this? It's cute. We'll make a little gift card holder here. That's such a cute idea. I like it. Which I love a gift card holder. So this is the card I'm using. I'm just going to center that in there and put that all the way down. This one, I'm just going to put on with some glue dots. Do you have any glue dots, Sandy? Thank you. I still use just doesn't have any in here. And I like to do use glue dots when I'm doing a gift card because it, they hold really well in the corners, but it doesn't take up too much space that you can't fit your little gift card in there. I forgot I had one of our Stampin' Sills that I need to fix in my drawer. I'll bring us the fixer of the office when it comes to those Stampin' Sills when they get a little crazy. Actually, mostly when our customers just bring them to us and say, this is broken. You just swap them out, usually. Yeah. I just am such like a can't waste. What is that? Want not waste not or waste not want not something like that? So I'm like, I'll fix it. I want to throw it away. Oh, yes. Margot knows Jackson. She was the matchmaker. Right. So cute. Well, I know Ryan is so grateful. He loves that cat. Yeah. I think that's been really positive for him. Okay. So there's a little thank you. Thank you so very much. And then you've got the little gift card holder on the inside. You can just slide it right in there. So fun, you guys. Those colors are cute. So fun. Okay. So I bet it's not great. That's perfect. Thank you, Jen. Oh, and we do have scraps of the the card stock as well, don't we? Of just our on in color. Oh, yes. Yeah. I might use some of that for this one. I have an idea, but I want some of that. Yes. I grabbed those other things here. Oh, I might want some of that too because look how pretty the dark is. Wouldn't that be pretty on the back? Yeah. Is that razzleberry? We don't have that. We don't have razzleberry anymore. I bet it's like berry, though, like very burst or or the black. I was going to say another one that we don't have anymore. I don't think it's black berry. Oh, um, not on that. It doesn't. Oh, berry burst. Berry burst. Peach pie, petunia pop, pretty and pink. The only one not in color is berry burst. So I think I might grab some. Is that okay? Yeah. Oh, yeah. Because I like it. I like that little dark pop there. I think that's cute. It's okay with me. Look how pretty. Really pretty. But only if you go very angelic. Right. I might need some of that too. Well done. Okay. Oh, cute. Avery. Oh, so cute. I do love that paper. I am sad that I cut it out. Well, not really. They're both really cute. They're both really cute. You need this, is that what you said? Thank you so much. You're welcome. I'm going to do something with this fray. I think. So you guys, oh yeah, I wonder if it frays. Have you tried it yet with this new ribbon? Well, it has the stitching on the edge. So it's not. Oh, it's not super-duper easy.  Yeah. I just love the contrast of those colors. I think that is so cute. I don't know about you guys. I'm having a hard time working today because it is so beautiful outside here. It is. Yeah. I just keep staring out the window at all the pretty sunshine. But we're probably a little lucky because we live in the a little more in the south. The south of our state is nice and warm. Nice and sunny. Actually, I think it's spring break for people. Look, it does. That one did really well. Oh, good. It's just me. But I'm actually okay with this. I'm sure it's not just you. I just wanted to make like a little pom pom for this. This is fun ribbon. It ties pretty easy. Yeah, it's good. It's like has a good texture to it. Yeah. And this is the ribbon that has all of the in-colors, right? And that new, what is that new? Oh, the beige. Basic beige. Basic beige. That's in it, too. I might just steal your idea and like, we'll curl this all out. I know, sorry. I am kind of a copycat when it comes to most things. I think most of us are. I hope so. Oh, maybe that side frayed really well. Oh, this one, kind of. You know how one does and the other doesn't. I was going to say, I've heard that it like depends on the end of which. Dang. This one wants to. Let's see if I find the right string, maybe. Nope. I'm going to work on that because look how cute if I made like a little pom pom. Oh, way cute. Off of that. Yeah. Thank you. There's my little gift card holder. Mine's going to be different. So fun. Okay, let me work on this because Jen cut it out so beautifully a little more. Oh yeah, Ramona, we are sisters. So I guess we probably should explain that a little bit more if you don't know. I married Jeff, who is Jill's oldest son. We actually are going to celebrate our 18-year anniversary next week. Crazy. So we got married and I was actually stamping up Demonstrator before that. I had signed up under Jill and known Jeff for a while before we got married. And when I had my first baby, Jill was so great to hire me to come work with her so I could stay home with my guy. And it was wonderful. We've loved it. So we did that and I was here for a few years and then Aubrey joined us shortly after with her little one. So it's been, I've been here 16 years. Aubrey's been here how long? 14? 14. Yeah. 14. A little over 14. Six and a quarter. So yeah, we are just all up in each other's business all the time, which we love. We do love. That's so fun. It works out good. That's it. While we're here working, our our littlest ones go to school together and they just never have enough time together. Never. That's what they tell us.  She's nine and she just, they just every day more time. We haven't played long enough. How can I stay longer?  I don't say that. Sometimes we say things like that. Get it together, guys. Get it together. Gosh, that very burst with that. Look what a pretty color combination. It just like, is that so pretty? We are close. I know Ramona. I love it. We are, I don't know, she's just my best friend. This is actually the second time we've worked together. We worked together at a local newspaper as well before we had our little babies. And then once we had kids, we just kind of wanted to be home with them. So more freedom. Yeah. Yeah, that was fun too. Okay, there's mine. Oh, I love my little, your little fray. So did you tie the knot, fray both sides or fray it and then tie it. Okay, that's really cute. We'll have to take a picture because I don't know if you can totally see, but that's super duper cute. And then I haven't put that all the way on you. I always love figuring out what you can do with new ribbon. Yeah. This one's cute. Cover up this here. All right, that one's cute. Now I need to make a little one. I know you've only made big ones. I know. Let's see. I'll make time to play. That's cute. I need to remember that. Yeah, you do. I don't like that. Okay, I'm gonna have to play with these. It's kind of like a little mix and match situation here. I might do this purple-orange-pink combo. Really cute. Ooh, I kind of like that too. Ooh, pretty with the orange. Yeah. But I kind of like the stripe with flowers. I always like to mix like the floral and the yeah and the soft, right, or like the soft with the stripe. That's cute. Yeah, I think I'm gonna do something with this to play. Let's celebrate. That one's cute too. You can always use two cards. Do like a little color blocking. Oh, that looks like a good idea. Or even like cut one in half and have one, two, three. That'd be kind of cute. Yeah. I might make a little background again with the Castella because I think that was so pretty. It is pretty. You probably can see it better on this one. Oh yeah, you're right. So I'm just gonna take the pen and stick it in the cap and then flick it. But this one's not super wet. So I don't know. There we go. That's a little bit more. That can be kind of aggressive. Maybe I'll squeeze. Yeah, there we go. I squeeze while I do it. Be aggressive. Be aggressive. I just don't have a pad underneath. Sorry, I might get glimmer all over your table here. That's okay. I just got to have some texture, man. Look how pretty. Can you see a little better? Maybe on this one? I can see it in person. I know it's so pretty in person. Well, just take some pictures so you can see it. I know Ramona are kids. They are. They grew up together. They were here at work together. Then when they had to start school, it was just devastating a lot of the time. I remember actually when my oldest, so our two oldest were very, very close growing up. It's a boy and a girl. But when Beth's oldest went to school, my oldest was devastated because she said, I'm just never going to see him again. I'm psyched. We see you all the time. All the time. But they still think they never see each other. That's true. It is very true. I know we were together on Easter celebrating on Sunday and the kids sat down next to each other to the two oldest. And we're kind of talking to each other. It's cute. They're pretty sweet. They are fun. Cute. So it's just like kind of playing, right? You're kind of just, yeah, like a little puzzle. Put it together and see what comes out around and see what happens. Cute. A little sentiment there. I'm gonna think, what's that? Yeah, and boss, that would be, I know, that would be really fun. I think there are so many options that you could do with this, which would be really, really fun. It's kind of a fun little addition. These little, I know that, do we say ephemera? Ephemera. Ephemera packs and these little memories of more packs, I think are going to be some of my favorite. Just because I love simple stamping, nice and quick, don't have to have a ton of stuff to do it. But I know that's not everyone's style, so you can take these and you can judge them up because they work really well with all of our products, which is kind of fun. Oh, cute with the together. Yeah. It is sad to like cut up another pack though. I know. It's kind of hard to do that. I want to cut up another card. But you know, it's like using DSP. We say, you can always buy more. That's true. That's true. Don't hurt it. I hear that all the time. Because that's something I do. I think, can we all collectively say we do that? Jennifer. Oh, Jennifer. Hi. We met Jennifer at our event in March as well. Yes. I have to tell you, Jennifer, we walked away from you that day with a renewed hope. Excitement. You made us feel so good. You're so kind to come and talk to us while we were there at that event. I know. That was so fun. Yes. I'm so glad you've got us live. I know. Jennifer tells us she watches all the time, but usually like after work later in the evening. So I know we've been playing with that because, like we just said, we have kids. I have four. Aubrey has four.  My baby is nine. Aubrey's is about to turn eight. And then my oldest is 16, almost 17. And her oldest is 15. She'll be 16 this year. So we are just kind of in this crazy phase where we're running all the time once we leave work. So maybe someday we'll be able to do some things in the evening time. We'll have a little more time to do that, but I know. Right now. But we will be with our virtual class. We will. Yeah, that's true. We do those ones in the evening classes. So I know if that works for some people. Oh, you're so sweet, Jennifer. You make us happy. We just love to, that was one thing that was so fun about going to that Stampin' Up event is we meet so many of you on here. But in person, we got to see and meet some of our friends there. So we made us so happy when people came up and chatted with us because then we could put a face with the name, which is awesome. Yes, it was so great. Okay. Okay, I'm going to put this one together. Can we do that? And then we can Oh, that XO is cute too. I know. I know. I was like, that would be really cute. Dang, we're going to need another one of these card packs, I think. I know. Because we're going to make this and then have other ideas. Okay, on some dimensionals here. Okay. Okay. Grateful for you. Oh, you did a little one. Cute. And that purple slash yellow, I should say. Petunia pop slash peat pie. I kind of love that. Yeah, it's really fun colors together. So fun. Actually, it kind of makes it easy that they all coordinate really well. I know we've had some in colors that don't coordinate as well in the past. I guess that's not true. I mean, they're always cute. But it's just so nice when they coordinate really well together because then it makes it just that much easier to create and play. It is. Okay, I know you're done. So let me just finish this one here. And then we can Oh, I don't know if that's where I want that. Let me see. Maybe I want it more like that. Then I can put my together kind of like that. Yeah, that's cute. It's cute. It's hello. I like the hello. I want to like cut around it and stick it on some cute.  I'm glad Jen's been doing my stuff for me because sorry, I'm going to reach over you. I am not. I don't cut very straight. But look at these colors together. Oh my God. So cute. So fun, fun to layer. Everything just kind of goes right together. So fun together. It's like a perfect wedding card. How fun. I love it. All right, let's pull in. Oh, Jen's been working on my little puff. Look how cute. So cute. I think I'll finish that up. Okay, and I'm not normally a purple person, but look at all that petunia pop that I use. And purple is just everywhere these days, isn't it? It is. Like how fun from the simple to the more busy, so fun. Well, good. Okay, guys, don't forget to go to our Facebook page to see all of these pictures of the projects that we made. We'll finish up what we're working on now and post a picture there this afternoon. The link is down in the description of the video. Yes. And next week, we are going to feature on our live some of our favorite retiring products. Right. The retiring list is out and we have been going through things and we're going to find some of our very favorite things and share them with you live next week. Yeah. And some will even be on sale and that sale starts next week on next Tuesday. So come and catch and see some ideas.

Don't forget to join us tomorrow for Watch It Weekly Wednesday. We'll get that video posted and we will see you next week. Okay, see ya. Bye.


Hello everybody, Ian here. Welcome back to another book review. Today we are talking about Quantum Leap Too Close for Comfort. This one, if I got my research correct, happened either right before or right after I had completely blanked on which one. I think it's right before the episode A Leap for Lisa. And I believe it's episode 22 of season 4. So we are currently re-watching this series. When I was younger, I watched all the way from the first episode all the way to the last episode. My favorite episode of all time is the end of season 3. It's a Halloween episode. I believe that's what it is, the end of season 3. Because I remember having to wait a long time on whether or not we were going to get another season after that. I could be wrong though. But this one happens, I believe it's right before it. It deals with Sam leaping back to, ouch, sorry, it felt like something bit me. It's just my leg twitching, my nerves are acting funny right now. In my back, that's what I'm talking about. But it deals with Sam leaping back to a men's group that Al has joined. The reason he joined is because his therapist thought it would be good for him. It's an odd group. It's a bunch of older white men doing Native American rituals kind of deal, beating drums, doing hey, that's literally how it's written in the book. And it's funny because in our age of political correctness and cultural appropriation and those key terms, a lot of that stuff is mentioned in here. There's one lady who works for the hotel where they're having the men's group and she's Native American, or seems Native American, she's wearing the jewelry. It's just Sam is thinking of her as she might be Native American just by the look of her.  They use Indians in the book of course, but Native Americans, it's got nothing to do with that. But he also thinks that maybe it does have something to do with that. So it was interesting to find those themes in this book. There's also this really heavy theme of like men's rights activist kind of deal and it's not a pro men's rights activist. In fact, most of the time, Sam is inwardly laughing at these guys while he's at these meetings.  But that's not even a spoiler. That's not even really the subplot. That's the red herring. That's to keep your mind off of the main plot. The main plot is Lisa who has a boyfriend who may not be the best person in the world. And her father is the leader of this men's right group. And these two things don't really go together other than the fact that this guy, the father, the only character in the book whose name I can't remember. He's dealing with this, he's kind of ignoring his family to work with this men's encounter group, I guess is what you call it. But it's all about empowering men. It's a hilarious concept to me too. I find it funny. Of course, the first, I think, four or five books in the series are written by a woman, Ashley McConnell.  So, you know, you got really, really strict, and it actually happens in the episode. She actually does end up with one of the guys. So you go from those themes to, it's almost as if they hired McConnell to fix those problems. And those problems, I would assume were created by Donald Bellisario. I think that's what his name is. Yeah, Donald P. Bellisario. But like I said, the first couple books are written by Ashley McConnell, and you can tell that it's completely different tone to it. The things that would be taken seriously in the television series are joked about in here, at least from what I can remember of the earlier episodes. I haven't gotten to the farther, the deeper in episodes later on. And of course, as time changed in our culture, as things changed in our culture, it was bound to lean more along the lines of, you know, you don't want to offend certain people. Now, but all that aside, this book is terrifically written. I was so worried coming out of the last book that this book, they would cut corners, but they didn't. The plot of this one is really, really good. If you watch the TV show back to back to back, you start to see all these, not really holes, but all these plot devices that they used to keep the show running. Even in the second season, you know, you only have so much content you can use with a time travel-esque type of thing, and every single episode seems to have some kind of romantic subplot. I was very happy to see that this book didn't have a romantic subplot. This review might be a little more in-depth than normally I would go into, but the whole reason for it is, I'm shocked. I'm honestly shocked that these books are as good as they are. My only criticism about this series so far is my own problem. It has nothing to do with, maybe it's because the author is so good. I mean, if you want to say, books fault at all, it's because the author is so good. I'm worried going on past here, because I don't want to ruin my opinion of the earlier books or see them for something maybe they aren't, or maybe they are. Like, maybe they are goofy and just toss away novels, and I'm just not seeing it because I'm enjoying it so much. But, at the same time, I just, I kinda, I want to see if it gets, you know, if the quality keeps on. I'm in that conflict there where I don't want to ruin it by the series dragging on and on and on, like the television show did, because I remember there were severely diminishing returns there at the end and it's like, please kill this thing. And they finally did, but it was well after the, well after the point they should have, kinda like The Walking Dead. It's just a zombie at this point. But, uh, is it even still going? I don't know. I stopped watching after the third or fourth season. Is The Walking Dead still going? Let me know down there in the doobly-doo, because you guys are obviously my TV guide. No, I'm kidding.  Have you read this series? Did you even know this series existed? Let me know down there in the doobly-doo. But, until next time, I have been E, you have been U, and this has been another book review. I'll talk to you guys later. Bye-bye!  I wanted to put this at the end because you are the same people who show up for the live streams. Um, I'm sorry I didn't make it last night, especially after putting up a video going, hey, this is the new schedule. I'm still in a lot of pain, but, uh, it's not a debilitating pain where I can't come out here and shoot a, you know, 15 minute episode, and then edit it for like, you know, 10 minutes kind of deal, because all I gotta do with these episodes usually is chop off the end matter and, well, the front matter and the end matter, and then, you know, just, just throw it up. So, it's not, not that big of a deal, and re-watch it for quality throughout. Um, but, uh, yeah, I'm sorry I let you guys down, but it's just something that had to be done.  So, if you guys wouldn't mind doing extremely short ones, usually it takes about 30 minutes for chat to get going though, if you've noticed. So, if you guys wouldn't mind doing, uh, shorter streams, maybe we can do one of those this week. Just let me know down there and do what we do. I'll talk to you guys later. Bye.


What is going on guys welcome back to the channel critical over here some about Jeepers Creepers 4 in this video here again today Jeepers Creepers were born talking about the two new posters that came out one of them You see here on your screen talk about the official trailer that came out And talk about the release info that came out along with said trailer and three release opportunity dates three release dates That the US now has as an opportunity to be able to see this movie in theaters if you decide to do that So as many of us and I kept talking about on this channel This is gonna end up being a fathom event and that is actually what it's gonna be It's gonna have a three night limited release just like the third movie did Every screen media movie honestly seems to do that what screen media movie Do you know they had a wide release honestly? So I don't think this is too shocking for any of us but here you have another new poster Jeepers Creepers were born and It mentions that you will have a chance to see it on the 19th the 20th and the 21st and limited theaters now I did get a press release sent to me.  I'm gonna do my best to be able to see this movie for free I don't feel like paying for this movie And going off of the trailer While I will say that it looks like the story is gonna be a lot more entertaining as opposed to what we got in The third one with that task force hunting it and Bringing in the Kenny and Darla subplots slightly and tweaking a few things and still being underwhelming even though They brought in parts of the Kenny and Darla subplot. This movie here Does look like it's gonna be a lot more entertaining as far as I wouldn't narrative it wants to tell in the trailer I think it makes it clear that going off of what I heard that Chase knows of the creeper origin and We get to see the creeper leaving what I assume is Jack Taggart's barn We see shots of the creeper wandering looks like he's stalking people at the horror hound event We actually get a few shots of the event itself It looks like there's something going on at the event with the creepers name being mentioned like a contest or something and then Chasing Lane and two others and I think some other girl who's present there They are supposed to be going to a location. It seems like it's tied to what happened at the horror hound event They end up going to the wrong location and that's how they end up caught in this creeper layer They went to the wrong place. They went to the creepers layer. They get trapped in there He starts stalking them. I'm assuming is gonna get start picking them off one by one and chaos will ensue, of course Now honestly, there were some things in the move in this trailer. I was like that looks terrible for instance, I think two characters are standing on a roof and there's like Croles swarming them. I believe or maybe one of them is on the roof I think it's Peter Brooks character on the roof Maybe fighting the creeper with with crow swarming them. It looks terrible But then again, we know there was a lot of siege. There was a lot of green screen Utilized for this movie. So I mean can't really be too shocked there As far as like seeing him escape the Taggart barn, honestly, that might be the most rewarding satisfying thing You'll see in this movie because I know a lot of you have been dying to see some iteration of that Not necessarily with the production value that you have here with this because yes I've seen people comment on and I'm in agreement the production value While I would say it looks like a slight improvement over three The cinematography it is still like a little bit. Eh, just like three the cinematography does not look all that impressive to me It doesn't really sell me or get me really that excited to see the movie Again considering this image that you have you on your screen They didn't they didn't really do anything to show like the cult stuff that many of us are still expecting to come Based off this image on screen here. So we'll see what this movie has to offer But the trailer did come out. You have a release date You have a time for when tickets will go on sale on August 6th And again, you'll have three opportunities to see you can see it on September 19th the 20th or the 21st Now again, if you're someone who's not in the States, I'm assuming the release date will end up still be in October But now those of us in the States We have a release date because again everything I've been talking about on here so far Was pertaining to potential release dates for us because everybody else seemed like they had a release date But now we know what's happening in the States. It's not something I know too many of you were shocked about a three-night fathom event That's exactly what we ended up getting for the third movie I think it was actually one night and then it came back for a second night So nothing too shocking there again the trailer. I wasn't necessarily overly impressed the most exciting thing I saw in the trailer was the creeper leaving that barn Honestly, it did look like there was a lot again of and we already saw this from behind the scenes CGI CGI use not CGI. I meant to say green screen use with people driving And you know the the scenery around them obviously looks like it's just Green screen like when we got the third trailer for jeepers creepers 3 and you had had testigo and And tubs in the in the car together clearly the scenery around them looked like green screen So you couldn't clearly see that here in this one as well The movie honestly is probably going to end up being just above quality wise with the jeepers creepers 3 I will do a review on the channel. I am going to try to do my best to again see this movie for free I don't have a real desire to Go to one of these fathom events. I just don't at this point I And I I haven't really had a chance to see either what team always tweeted out because I'm blocked again from That twitter account, but I did get a press release and I did see the trailer I know a lot of you are excited about it. I and if you are excited about it, that's fine I'm not really all that enthused about this movie anymore. I'm just at a point where like I want to see it And see what it had to offer And then I'll review it because I know a lot of you also want to hear what my thoughts are on the movie We've gone this far now the movie looks like it's finally here So I'll give my review spoiler free and I'll probably also do one with spoilers in it And then we'll all talk about it and tell each other how trash this one was how much better the third one was Or gone about how even though it seems like it's still the same production value This one was more entertaining. It had a more focused narrative Hopefully and it had a lot more interesting characters. Hopefully also better performances What I'm seeing in the trailer doesn't necessarily look like there's going to be bad performances I really want to see what sydney craving is going to do though Since we know that's who the creeper is targeting. I am also a bit confused From the fact that it did seem like again chase was going to propose to lane At the horror hound event and then lane was going to get taken away And maybe that is what happens because again the trailer could be deceiving Deceiving us in a lot of ways with certain shots being being factored in before they enter the creeper's lair Maybe lane actually is abducted at the horror hound event and they end up going to the house of pain But it really legitimately seems like going off the trailer. There's something going on with a competition at the event And they all together end up going the going to the wrong location. So maybe the proposal got reworked or it's a It's something where they had that shot for multiple different Scenarios and we're getting a different scenario from what was shown in that behind the scenes footage We'll all know sooner or later jeepers creepers for again is released in september If you haven't already of course make sure you subscribe turn on post notifications I never miss a video in the description I'll have links to all my social media accounts on facebook twitter and instagram You can message me there of course to limiters any movies news or reviews You like me to cover in the future with all that in mind guys I will see you in the next video and also just to end this I am at the point where I don't want to see any more jeepers creepers movies If it's at this type of production value with all that in mind guys, I will see you in the next video


What's up? How are you guys today? We're going to talk about budget and how you can affordably eat as healthy as possible on a Steak and potato diet, you know a lot of people whether it's families kids They're in school. They're working multiple jobs. They're on a pretty strict budget and hey listen It's not my fault. You have three different baby mamas, but I'll help you out anyway Let's take a look at what we have. We're gonna touch on the food first Low budget high budget then we'll touch on water and then maybe we'll go into a few other things that you Probably want to spend some money on if you want to be healthy and you guys missed the Minimally inflammatory protocol update last week. We're basically doing a beef and potato diet This is the ground bison we have on Frankie's syringe. I mean one of the more affordable things I think it's around eight dollars a pound and then with a 10% discount It's really really cheap just to have you know one pound of high quality High cholesterol protein really really good source of really all the nutrients you need on Frankie's syringe meat calm and the Most basic easiest nutritious carbohydrate source is you know an organic white potato here We have some rest of potatoes.  I think this bag is gonna last you about two days. So just for food we're talking you know 10 to 12 dollars a day and You're gonna be perfectly healthy, you know, whether you need some salt or some oil or a few things to add here and there That's not going to be significant What changes is if you want some more variety in the diet and if you want to add a few things You know here we have the the roast beef from Frankie's syringe meat this costs, you know more than double the bison We have some apple cinnamon oatmeal That's gonna cost you you know a few dollars at least just for breakfast and we have some honey crisp apples These are the more expensive apples so you know you might have to spend another dollar or two per meal just to have an apple So whether you want to spend ten dollars a day or you know You can probably go up to twenty five thirty dollars a day if you want a very high variety and a lot of different foods in your diet But from a pure nutrition and health perspective There really isn't going to be that much of an increase, you know by going from this to something like that It's just gonna be a lot more enjoyable and you're gonna feel a lot better doing it You know just these packs of udon noodles I get or you know four to five dollars each just for dinner So you know keep in mind it's not crazy crazy expensive, but it can get up there if you start You know spending ten bucks per meal also very important and often overlooked is the water you are drinking and If I had to bet I might actually be spending more money on water than I am on food between you know drinking a few bottles per day You know cooking my oatmeal with it anytime. I got to make noodles rinsing stuff I use a lot of water and even if you get this stuff at like a wholesale price whether it's like 250 or $2 a bottle It still really adds up You know I think most people if you're using glass bottle of mineral water are going to be spending at least you know 7 to 12 dollars a day Just on water and it's so important to avoid fluoride chlorine all of those things that I Can't really not recommend this you know if you can't afford something like this Then you absolutely have to Find like a local well or a spring and fill up your own bottles So you can maybe buy you know ten cases of water for a few hundred bucks And then you keep those bottles and then you go to that local well or spring or clean water source That has been tested and you can verify there's nothing bad in it and just fill it up That's going to take maybe a few hours out of every month or so when you need to fill up the water So you know you can save a significant amount of money doing that here We have some Mountain Valley, and I like drinking the Fiyuji the Mountain Valley I use mostly for cooking and stuff I also have some bottles of water kefir in here, which we'll touch on in a little bit But what you can do is Google search like water suppliers or water distributors near me And if you confront the cost of like a full pallet or something they'll deliver to your house granted You know you need somewhere to put a full pallet of water And you can definitely save some money that way instead of like going to the supermarket or Whole Foods and buying boxes and boxes of water every day but I'm gonna say it again guys The importance of removing things like floorage from your diet You know maybe once a month or so if I go to a restaurant And then maybe I grab some like sorbet or something like a lemon sorbet at a gelato shop in the city The water they use in that gelato is obviously like top order And I can just feel my brain shut off after having that and it Sometimes takes even a few days to get back to a hundred percent So if you have not experienced how you feel with a clean water source in your diet You absolutely need to try it and at the end of the day when you spend more money on this stuff You become more productive and the money you make far eclipses Saving a little bit on water. So yeah, most people should have a probiotic Especially water kefir in their diet. We also have the water kefir grains, you know So if you're making this stuff yourself probably spend a dollar or two a day on sugar and stuff It's not that expensive. Obviously way more expensive buying it on Frankie syringe foods Yeah, so if you're buying one bottle of our water kefir at like eight or nine dollars a bottle And you're spending that every day, you know that can aid up a significant amount But for you know for me, I needed that water kefir to fix my health and I could not do without it But you know, it's very easy to make guys. So you can buy some water kefir grains Watch my water kefir recipe videos. There's always, you know, a cheap and affordable Alternative to all of these things I'm showing you you're just going to have to Invest some time and some research doing that now We'll touch briefly on the supplements and if you guys have any questions about Supplements whether it's B vitamins minerals magnesium. I have in-depth videos on every single thing, you know, why you need the nutrient Signs of deficiency How are you going to feel when you take it all the metabolic functions going to the biochemistry so you can search like Frank Tafano Selenium Frank Tafano manganese and little bit whatever it is and you can see in-depth videos today I'm just going to explain that you know, even if you might have to spend a hundred or two hundred dollars on supplements upfront They're gonna ask you a year two years You know, these aren't things you're going to be taking every single day handfuls and handfuls of pills You know, it equates to about a dollar or two per day Costs on supplements maximum and these are necessary for most people whether you have You know in para digestion you're coming from a stands in American diet Even me with all this perfectly healthy organic food I still need certain things like B vitamins from time to time because of modern lifestyle Negatives, you know so far. We're talking, you know, 10 to $15 a day versus You know, you could easily be spending $50 $60 a day, which is you know affordable for some people most people it's not and I haven't looked it up in a little while But I think the average grocery cost per person was like a hundred or $120 per week some years ago So I'm sure that's gone up now and you know, keep in mind if you use those numbers This is actually in or below the budget range for what the average person spends on food except, you know You're in your kitchen preparing the stuff. You're not going out to eat You're not getting grub hub or all any of that stuff now Hypothetically if you have the food the water the probiotics and the supplements down you should be healthy However, if you're not using EMF Wi-Fi protective equipment, that's really the last final thing Yeah, you should be outside grounding occasionally getting some sun exercising. Those things don't cost money What does is if you have to spend a few hundred to you know A few thousand dollars to completely reduce the EMF in your lifestyle and on Wi-Fi shielding we do have affordable options Oh, I think I have it in my pocket. So at a very minimum for around a hundred and fifty dollars you can get a Wi-Fi shielding t-shirt underwear and a Crazy man beekeeper head net So you can wear that all day sleep with the head net on and you will effectively reduce the EMF by you know 70-80% enough to start getting healthy and then if you do want to invest You know hundreds to a thousand or two thousand on several canopies and kind of make your apartment or living area safer That's something you can do down the line You know we even have all these curtains here blocking the the five grams coming in from outside so hopefully this gives you guys an idea of you know what you should be doing with your budget and how to plan accordingly and I will say you know take it day by day Don't look at this as a long-term thing I'm going to spend so many thousands of dollars per year if you haven't tried it Try it for a week or two see how you feel You know you don't necessarily have to 100% commit to it But you know usually it takes some pretty significant Experiences and how a person feels or is to notice a difference.
