A forum is a place for like minded individuals to gather and share information. The News is a business with the intention to make money via selling commercials. The more viewers, the more it can charge for commercials. The 'better' the story, the more viewers... I can't believe you equate this form to the media. Maybe i'm wrong, but I didn't think FHC.com's intent was to promote wood hoarding/burning for the betterment of society. I felt, in the short time i've been here, that this is a group of people that I have a lot in common with. Simple life, hard working, outdoors, self sufficiency, internal combustion engines, mud, and maybe a little anti-establishment, etc. I do not try to sell my way of life, however, if someone is interested, I'll gladly explain the what's and why's of it, and will help in any way that I can, usually to a fault, but you got to ask, and be genuine about it. Don't want what I got because you don't have it and I do. Don't take that to mean that I'm stingy, I give away more of my time than I keep for myself. I'm sure you understood the context, I guess I've just been in the ghetto too long. Happy to be out now! I chuckle at the same type of misused vernacular myself.
Which is exactly the opposite of "on the down-low". Sorry dude, when you pitch 'em right across the plate, I have to take a swing.
Not sure if you saw the NBC clip TC. While it talked about wood stoves and firewood, it's focus was totally on "neighbors helping neighbors" because so many are having a hard time. While it was nice to see a positive NBC clip on anything, without driving globull warming down my throat, I doubt if many of the folks watching will change their lives by becoming firewood freaks. Our fuel of choice is safe I think… :firepit:
I think you summed us up nicely. And for the record, I'm anti establishment no matter who is in power-- just too much government. And no, I will not go further into it
. " Maybe i'm wrong, but I didn't think FHC.com's intent was to promote wood hoarding/burning for the betterment of society." I am for promoting wood burning for the betterment of society.
I thought this GTG was about chainsaws and beer... but now that I heard its guns and beer... you've got my undivided attention
