    I have a question. My one cousin was looking at Maine. And one thing that kind of turned him off to it was a dude told him you guys have a tick problem.

    Dude said the ticks are plentiful.

    True or false?

    Lyme disease is one of the most reported infectious diseases in Maine. In 2018, the incidence rate of Lyme disease was 105 per 100,000 people. The incidence rate of anaplasmosis rose from 1.3 to 35.6 per 100,000 from 2010 to 2018.

    A close friend of his; his sister got Lyme disease and it f'd her up. That left a mark on both of them.

    It always starts with a toothbrush. Next thing you know your putting up wallpaper border wondering what the hell happened.

    The real story, no one talks about, including most preachers.


    Ok.
    This gets deep.

    Revelations 6:6 And I heard a voice in the midst of the four living beings say, “A measure of wheat for a penny, and three measures of barley for a penny; and see thou hurt not the oil and the wine!”

    So food prices are rising, fact.
    "Food prices, across the board (at home and away from home), are up 2.4% in June 2021 relative to June 2020," he said. ... Compared to last summer, prices of food eaten away from home are up 4.2% — substantially higher than the typical rates of annual increases.Jul 15, 2021

    Sickness hit first. Pestilence.
    Second horseman. War/turn the people against one another.
    Third horseman. Famine. Food prices rising, not quite unaffordable for some, yet the ones on limited income...
    Fourth horseman. Death, with Hades following him jaws open receiving the victims slain by Death.

    is it just me, or is everything falling into place and we are in... the end of days?
    :eek:



    Told you.. deep.

    Seems Maine, Connecticut and those states have been hit hard by ticks and Lyme. Last few years a friend in Mass. has not been doing near the camping/hiking they used to because of that.

    What about the Callisto effect?


    the basic premise of Callisto effect is that the creature/virus/predator will continue evolving and taking on traits along the way that will make it the ultimate predator.
