Yellow

 The flyers (supplements for the local newspaper) had arrived two days ago and browse through the pages and looked at those Halloween costumes and the boxes of goodies: chocolates, chips and packages of rice krispies. 

HALLOWEEN is on October 31, Monday. It's only September 8, 2022 - Thursday. 

For people with lots of money it's better to shop early. Shop early because you don't know for sure if those items will be available for the month of October.

Was it last year the problem with the supply chain happened like as if its systemic? Yeah that's right. Simply because of the pandemic scare that also had the lockdown and isolation for almost  a year sometime in the year 2020-2021 that many companies closed down. The pandemic is just a blown-up out of proportion of a strong influenza and it's not about zombies FGS! But the looting and all the hoarding of basic commodities had department stores and supermarket empty of its supply. LOOTING & MASSIVE HOARDING. Why some a-holes hoarded supply of food and other commodities? Fear of catastrophic event. Or just plain greed. Hoard supplies could cause inflation and some of those thieves maximize great profits. Or they will build a new store to fill it up with mark up prices of goods. It is pure EVIL.

Year 2022 is starting over. There are billions of people around the world and the scarcity of resources are very much visible. The great demand is overwhelming. Then the high rate of inflation and the high cost of living.

It is at this stupid COVID pandemic when the price of property, such as houses, condos, apartments are unbelievably rocket-sky high. Unbelievable! Even rotten and moldy houses are worth in millions of dollars now. Totally crazy. Some group of people would rather live on tents! Refugees keep complaining they have to live inside hotels and motels. At least duh! They are very fortunate actually for they were offered the best of dwellings unlike those homeless Canadians.

Well, who can afford nowadays? The price of gas and oil has been lowered, just a little bit, not over $ 200/full tank, down to $195/full tank. hey, nobody knows the highs and lows nowadays because everyday is not a guarantee that the price of gasoline is the same. I don't know who decides what price should be appropriate on day to day basis.

Did you know that it's hard to find a box of salt now in supermarket? Who and why they should hoard box of salt? What's next? Sugar and coffee? How about rice? Good that American farmers are into rice crop planting because who would like to eat potatoes all the time, or have pasta everyday? Hey, that too...the pasta (drumwheat spaghetti pasta and all kinds of macaroni and ricotini pasta) would you believe those pasta are product of Turkey? My God, never thought that pasta (drumwheat noodles) are imported from Turkey not product of Canada. I first thought Canada is the leading producer of wheat second to USA & Russia. But because Russia is at war with Ukraine, most of the raw materials and raw products never get into the shipping  for distribution around the world. Russia is the leading producer of Vodka and alcohol (rubbing alcohol, antiseptic). They are the leaders when it comes to potato production - the source of alcohol  and fuel (infused energy for space exploration), including gas and oil. GAS the gasoline. You thought USA & Canada have gas and oil extraction ready for billions of people but the main supplier was actually RUSSIA. You need great volume of water to pump gas and oil extraction also need massive amount of water. Electricity runs on hydro powered so water is really much needed especially if those billionaires want to rule the world in commercializing the use of EV.

Then you wonder what happened to Alberta's ocean. GONE. There's no ocean in Alberta! It was flatlands. Wrong. Alberta was once an ancient ocean. Do you think Pacific ocean will lose its water once the billionaire geniuses had their Electric Vehicles passed for normal transportation?

Anyway, the world still has Pacific ocean, Arctic, Atlantic, Adriatic, Mediterranean sea, the Caribbean, the thousand beaches around the continent of Australia, lakes and rivers, bays and canals. But I'm not sure if the water is still 70%. 

It should be...hope so.
