    Be aware of new Covid-19 scams!

    Scammers mailing fake Best Buy gift cards with malicious tech

    If you receive a $50.00 gift card in the mail from Best Buy with a USB drive that instructs you to first insert the drive into your computer to activate the card it is a scam. The USB is loaded with malicious code.

        Another one that I have heard this week is a phone call or voice mail that claims to be respiratory therapy at a local hospital saying that your doctor has made an appointment for you and they need some additional information, all those bits of personal information that an identity thief would use and your local hospital will not ask for in advance.

          It completely disgusts me how people try to prey on other people. It is terrible in the best of times, but now when people are more vulnerable than usual they see an opening to take advantage.

                          Crazy human behaviour. Did the Feds take the masks home and keep them for personal family use?

                          How does one group of rats on a sinking ship have the right to rule over another rats means of survival.


                          You can make a face mask cut from a peice of old bed sheet with slots cut for the ears; or a peice of string tied on each corner of the cotton square. Simply wash the mask each day to disinfect.

                            The N95 masks block out 95% of particulates, a bed sheet (unless you have a very very high thread count) might not cut it, unless you have multiple layers.

                                I actually worked on an organic farm where human waste was composted (vegetarian, pharmaceutical and drug free of course) was used in the crops. It is as good, if not better than any commercial fertilizer and much more cost effective.
