So I've been doing some research, and I've found out some interesting facts.
I have a pole barn that is 40 feet by 60 feet. That's quite a large square foot area on the roof. And in a rain, that equates to a lot of water. In fact, for each inch of rain we get, my roof will drain off 1,500 GALLONS OF WATER!! Imagine that!! One thousand five hundred gallons of water ... from ONE INCH of rain! That's the equivalent of 3 of those swimming pools with the inflatable tops that rise as you fill it. That's a lot of frickin' water folks! And this is just the pole barn. I could get even more water by catching rain from my house rooftop too.
So I'm going to get a whole bunch of plastic 55 gallon barrels. Our Pepsi distributor gives them away for free when they are done with them. I'll build a gutter sytem that drains into a couple of barrels. Then those barrels will feed more barrels down by the garden through hoses. And with a little help from gravity as my friend I will water my garden through drip irrigation for free!
You see ... I told you most of the stuff you need is free! We just don't take advantage of it. We've become spoiled and lazy, and then when we have to pay for stupid stuff like heat and water, we complain about it. I guess it does make sense to complain about paying for stuff that's free, but nobody has a gun to your head telling you to do it either.

Now expand that idea a bit. We have free outdoor water with rain. We have free water underground that's drinkable. We have free heat through woodburning stoves, we have free electricity through the sun and wind, we have free food through animals and plants. It's all free .. you just gotta tap into it! I've basically eliminated the heat, electric, grocery, and water bill! Hell, if you have your house paid off, what is the point of even having a job ??? Does it start to make sense that we're all stupid??
Yeah, I know. I'm a looooong ways away from all this happening, but don't forget, I'm retired. And time is all I have. You laugh now, but I'll get the last laugh. Watch and see.
Todays RBV: Samuel 12:18 So Samuel called unto the LORD; and the LORD sent thunder and rain that day: and all the people greatly feared the LORD and Samuel.
You see, all I gotta do is ask God, and millions of gallons of water will be at my disposal !!!
