Sheep Sorrel: Good to eat fresh or cooked.





Young muscadine leafs are pretty good. The older leafs are strong but can be fermeanted to create a yummy muscadine sauerkraut. Also works with Kudzu.

Muscadine:

 

Gator, we are already in those times, its called Political Correctness. As fer pepperspray good for, well we waiting for sumone to invent Salt Spray to go with it. lol

 

Salt and pepper shot for seasoning good for nuthin' rump

I believe that that has already been done...in the good ol' days, farmers would sometimes load their shotshells with rocksalt just have to load some peppercorns for a thoroughly seasoned villain. ; )

 

This was popular enough that it even made it to entertainment television. There were several episodes of the Beverly Hillbillies where rock-salt loaded shotgun shells were both mentioned and used, usually against a Drysdale. Ricochet shooting was also a popular pastime on the Hillbillies.

 

I am in a conundrum about how to continue my blossoming trade with my new neighbor. I left my second corespondent and recieved a request for more Bat poop. I mentioned that I really needed a tooth-brush and some tooth-paste and now have what appears to be a slightly used Oral-B and half a tube of Crest with Scope, not a favorite but I suppose it beats chewing on mint and brushing my teeth with salt from a cow-lick.
I need advice about how to sterilize a plastic tooth-brush? I thought about boiling it, but I wouldn't want it to melt? I left a whole wheel-barrow of poop for Thursday for a bar of soap, does the post Apocalypse price of used tooth-brushes and past have a similar trade value?

 

Frank...This you ?

Dude must of been wearing a Hoodie...Paging Sausagehead Al Sharpton.!!!!!

 

LOL...

 

Darn, Frank? I don't know how you can sterilize something without boiling or chemicals such as bleach, peroxide, or alcohol? Maybe you can make a simple still and make some alcohol?
Do you have a first-aid kit? maybe there is some alcohol or betadine or peroxide it it?

 

Check the ingredients on the bottle of scope. See if it contains alcohol. If so use some on the toothbrush. For general cleaning, pine oil is a natural disinfectant. Crush fresh pine needles to get to the oils.

 

I think he said it was Crest tooth-paste with scope...it's what I use but the scope is in the tooth-paste

 

You are correct. Back to square 1.

 

swizzle your toothbrush in a strong solution of salt water, allow to dry and leave the toothbrush exposed to direct bright sunlight for several hours, re-orienting the brush if necessary to get maximum sunlight exposure. The UV component of sunlight should kill off most bacteria then swizzle again in salt water solution.

I have accidentally used toothbrushes also used by others....siblings, mother in law, former lovers, and the toothbrushes of my own children without ill affect.(at 2am in the morning after having a somnambulant snack attack all toothbrushes look the same) One's own oral flora are capable of dealing with most foreign oral floral invaders without too much drama.

A used toothbrush that's best days are well past may not have that much oral hygiene value, but it can be used to keep your Benelli clean which, in the short term is probably more valuable than the prospect of dental caries further down the track. Dental caries are probably more likely if living on a high carbohydrate, high sugar diet, than a more primitive dietary regime. So, don't over indulge with the cattails and wild honey!

You may be able to put the polypropyline rope to good use as improvised dental floss (use some of the the seperated fibres).

Edit: Garlic has some anti bacterial properties, so perhaps leave your toothbrush stand in a strong infusion of garlic water....this tactic of ensuring oral hygiene may also be a reasonable preventitive for some other "socially" communicable diseases....if you can't get close enough for kissing, then the odds are that you won't get close enough to do anything alse that will get you into strife! : O

 

If your now Bartering be sure to fill all the necessary forms with the IRS as you wouldnt want to be "disbared"

 

Bat guano is an excellent source of potassium nitrate (salt peter).

It has many uses as I'm sure many here know.

It will actually have great value if processed into saltpeter.

from black powder to food preservation.

 

Ain't heard from Frank in a couple days, ya suppose that Potfarmer's buddies got him?

 

Love is in the air??

It could be that the bear gall bladder is working too well!!! : O

I hope Frank's ok. I'm kind of missing the continuing saga that is Frank's bat cave survival existence.

 

Frank,in regards to the rent in your canoe,if you can find some road kill animals such as deer,goats,cows, or horses,any hoofed animal would do,take the hooves and chop them up into small pieces and boil them down slowly.This will make a crude but effective glue that you may be able to use with old plastic jugs to create a patch.Just a thought,Good Luck...

 

Fixing a holy canoe....

rendering animal hooves into glue may render your bat cave more odouriferous than it is already....it's strictly an open air enterprise well away from your home turf....remember OpSec!!! it will attract human attention for miles around.

Good stinking...um I mean thinking, Sapper J ; ) ....caulking with sisal or hemp rope soaked in pine pitch....or even molten bitumen tar may help also.
