N of Sac a bit.
My gf and I lived in Sac for a couple years.
Back in my hometown, now.
May have seen you here on the coast when it was hot inland... ;)
Thanks for reminding me chickens suck.......I just got the email about "chick days" at my local place. Almost considered it.......
I know, I get a little excited when everyone here is talking about chick season, and I got very excited last year when 7 hatched au naturale here (2 died accidentally, early on).
Got 3 roosters out of it.
I realized I don’t like eggs as much as I used to and we are basically just paying (in food cost) to supply friends and neighbors with the most free-rangiest, organic eggs, that could sell for like $8/dozen in store.
It’s sad because I do like watching them and they help keep insects in check BUT those little pluckers are raptors that would eat me if they could, and I like my veggies more than I like them.
Still undecided. Maybe will just stop buying feed and see how they do just feeding off the land.
Little pluckers...

I went to a friend's house and did my best to talk them out of commiting suicide. I left someone there to watch them and if things keep going downhill I'm not afraid to call in a crisis team.

Do not fuck around. If someone says they want to kill themselves, take them seriously.

I've read a bunch of stories of people who survived jumping off the Golden Gate Bridge; the second they stepped off, they regretted what they were doing.
Watched the documentary on the Golden Gate bridge and suicides that occur off of it, seriously sad movie. :(

About 20 years ago I was on a salmon fishing boat on our way out of Berkeley early one morning. Just as we were passing under the Golden Gate the captain made a hard right turn and went into a big circle, the deck hand went running to the bow and we started circling under the bridge. Within 5min the Coast Guard arrived, we continued for a couple more circles and then headed out. I asked the deck hand WTF was that?...."Jumper"..."usual protocol, keep circling until coasties arrive. He said it wasn't their first time... :sad:
