Tomato Deception. Yes, seriously.

So this weekend, with fall fast approaching in the north, I decided to go out for some farm-fresh tomatoes so I can cook them into a heavenly sauce and freeze fresh packets of summer for a long winter. I didn’t do this for a couple of years and I miss it.

I’ve noticed with our heavy rains this year, the tomatoes I’ve bought so far haven’t been the greatest. Everywhere I went, they are bruised, look beat up and just not appetizing. And the ones I ate? They were tough, and flavorless.  So I drove around to a few new places.   One farm that I entered had nice looking tomatoes for sale right out front in wooden baskets.  I figured I could work with those.   I went in to inquire about the cost of a half-a-bushel.  I was told that those wouldn’t be sold by the bushel, but they had “slicer” tomatoes in back that I could buy in bulk.

“Slicer?”  I thought that didn’t sound right.  Who grows “slicer” tomatoes?  I hadn’t heard of that before.

I went back and looked at the ones they wouldn’t sell me and I noticed the boxes they were sitting in were professionally printed boxes that had the correct name for each type they contained. That seemed odd.  I then went back inside and when I questioned the girl if they were grown on their farm, she told me no, they bought these tomatoes.

A FARM bought their tomatoes.

Hello!  I feel like I am living in an alternate reality sometimes. How does that make sense???

I was shocked.  I’m in farm fields for miles and miles and I want to buy tomatoes and they aren’t growing them. They are buying them!!  And its profitable for them to sell them?   Well, of course, it is!  They are selling them as if they were homegrown when they aren’t. I can guarantee dozens and dozens of unsuspecting customers paid for “farm” grown tomatoes and got greenhouse.

Just wow.

Unbelievable, isn’t it?

Next time you think you are getting farm-fresh — you might want to ask first where it was grown. I certainly will going forward!

President Trump: “I faced great pressure…”

Trump made a very telling statement this week. Did you catch it?

He said in discussions about firing Comey to the Russians, “I faced great pressure because of Russia. That’s taken off.” (Source)

Hmmm…. did you think about that?

He faced great pressure.

How does that work if you are not involved with Russia with any corrupt dealings?

If you are honest and not involved in any Russian entanglements, you would find any accusation laughable and baseless. There would be no pressure. It would actually be entertaining because you’d have nothing to fear.  You’d know you are in the right. You’d shrug it off knowing the truth will come out and you’d likely not give it a second thought.

BUT…if you are a liar and have a lot to hide, you’d have pressure. Lots of it!

Firing Comey was a short term release on a much bigger pressure cooker. It’s only just getting started!

Liars leak big clues, you just have to pay close attention.

Be Warned: Fake Kidnapping Scam

/in , , , /by

Law enforcement is warning people nationally about a scam that is happening across the U.S. A person calls and tells you that your loved one has been kidnapped, and instructs you to get money or your loved one dies with a bullet to the head! Then they get you to drive your car all over town to wire money promising you this will ensure the safe return of your loved one. They don’t allow you time to get off your phone and call your loved one or anyone else!

Worse, as seen in the scam above, they have gotten both parents involved.

Don’t think because you don’t have little children that this can’t happen to you. It’s happening to parents of college-age children, and children in their twenties.

When I search the news, I am seeing cases from coast-to-coast being reported on by major news networks. This California station gives you information from the FBI on what to do should you get a call like this! It’s a helpful article.

These criminals are playing on people’s emotions. And I’ve always said when people are emotional, their ability to spot the truth plummets dramatically. It’s when people are emotional that they will do things that they normally wouldn’t do and criminals are harnessing that human frailty.

Trump in his own words…

Does Trump have something to do with Russia? I think Trump answers this for himself.

This behavior is called pathological lying.

This Product Will Change You!

How many times have you seen in the modern age era a person who claims whether it’s on Facebook, TV or the Internet that they have a product that will change your looks? And you look at the spokesperson and think wow, they look great! And you see them on video, so it has to be true, right? Many people know better, but people still buy into these products on the “hope” that maybe it will be a miracle in a bottle.

Companies make lots of money deceiving people and try to get them to purchase a product on the “dream” of how they could look, but the truth is most products don’t fundamentally change the way we look. They may have minor and temporary effects, but they usually don’t do anything dramatic.

Many thanks to Wayne Goss for making this video and showing you the truth! Check this out. It’s well worth the watch, and thanks to LC for sharing this with me.
