Welcome to General Chat - GAW Community Area
This General Chat area started off as a place for people to talk about things that are off topic, however it has quickly evolved into a community and has become an integral part of the GAW experience for many of us.
Based on its evolving needs and plenty of user feedback, we are trying to bring some order and institute some rules. Please make sure you read these rules and participate in the spirit of this community.
Rules for General Chat
-
Be respectful to each other. This is of utmost importance, and comments may be removed if deemed not respectful.
-
Avoid long drawn out arguments. This should be a place to relax, not to waste your time needlessly.
-
Personal anecdotes, puzzles, cute pics/clips - everything welcome
-
Please do not spam at the top level. If you have a lot to post each day, try and post them all together in one top level comment
-
Try keep things light. If you are bringing in deep stuff, try not to go overboard.
-
Things that are clearly on-topic for this board should be posted as a separate post and not here (except if you are new and still getting the feel of this place)
-
If you find people violating these rules, deport them rather than start a argument here.
-
Feel free to give feedback as these rules are expected to keep evoloving
In short, imagine this thread to be a local community hall where we all gather and chat daily. Please be respectful to others in the same way
Frens, there's a local self-bottling honest clean dairy in my area whose beloved owner and primary worker got gored by a bull about a month ago. It's been in the local press, you can independently confirm the event. Randy Lewis of Ran-Lew Dairy. Excellent man, humble and hardworking.
They're very close to their fundraising goal on GoFundMe (I know, I know; the ladies caring for it are not quite awake yet). However, I'm hoping they'll surpass it, because while he has been in the hospital, a tree fell on his truck and totaled it. Locals have been volunteering at the farm to keep things running, other dairies have been helping deliver his milk, but we know how the medical cartels will come after him.

It's called, "This is some bull"
Please consider throwing a few bucks to him and his business if you can. This is the local independent face of the parallel economy and is very worthy of support. Thanks all.
