    Yep. Gives one a true appreciation of the vastness of the country. I drove from Seattle to Dublin VA and back again in the 80's. Not quite coast-to-coast but damn close, 2700 miles. Once east of the...

    I tried to drive across TX in one day back in 69. I was driving from Pensacola to El Paso. I'm sure a long haul trucker can do it but I failed. I was just driving in daylight hours. Just not enough...

    Thanks for starting that thread.

    Sometimes a good deal comes up on GB and people miss it or just aren't interested in the latest non-striker polymer pistol.

    That's probably a $500 pistol....

    We had one when I was in HS. We had a regular toilet and a claw bathtub in the house. The out house was used when the indoor toilet was in use. One summer my dad gave us a project to dig a new hole...

    UPS and FedEx continues to evolve in the ways the employees steal your stuff.

    If they get fired they just sue the company for unfair termination, take the settlement and move on to their next...

    I had a similar situation last summer with UPS. GB deal. Seller was an FFL in Omaha and I contacted a local FFL here that I've done business with before. He sent his license to FFL in Omaha for...

    I know a dog groomer that makes decent money. She's mobile and isn't taking anymore customers.

    I remember reading a story about a guy who saw two men breaking into his neighbors house. He shot both of them on his neighbors property. He was never criminally charged. That was somewhere in TX...

    Maybe Cali wasn't the best move. A few years ago my wife and I were going to move to NM. I like the SW and NM. I spent many years living and working in AZ. We traveled in NM considerably with an RV...

    I wish people had the same attitude around here. Highly unlikely that anyone gets shot stealing crab pots. Probably get thrown in jail shooting at thieves. Most people won't leave their pots...

    CraB pot thieves

    Not many people have to deal with this, but we do. My next door neighbor used to fish for crab. He finally gave up after most of his pots were stolen.

    Apparently it does. I've just never had a pump reject my debit with a pin. I've never used that card and said it was a credit card. I looked and as you say, immediate debit on my checking acct. So...

    I think banks make millions, maybe billions every year from people that use a credit card as a payday loan or cash advance. Carrying a lot of debt is more or less accepted as part of the economy now....

    (mainly due to the risk of using a debit card in public and online).

    OT.

    I have a card which is debt/credit. I recently went to a local store/gas station to fill up a gas can. I put my card in...

    Knife fighting intrigues me. It's like self defense 101. Nobody wants to get cut up in a knife fight. Getting shot just doesn't register with some people because they just don't understand ballistics.

    The law isn't relative to most who use public transportation daily. Like you said, who's going to enforce it? The bus driver isn't. They don't get paid to do that.

    The end result would be an...

    All my parents taught me was have a job with a steady income. I wasn't a good student in high school and learned most of my investing/savings strategy in my 30's. I was fortunate because I've never...

    I'm a minimalist myself to a degree. I've come to the conclusion that pistols aren't like your normal consumable like a laptop or dishwasher. Nobodies putting restrictions on those but in some states...

    Shoot from the hip is an idiom.

    Used in a sentence.

    Donald Trump is shooting from the hip trying to postpone his first criminal trial.

    Personally, I wouldn't buy a saw under $400. Those are all throw away saws. What happens when you go to repair one is the dealer will tell you it's more expensive to repair it then replace it. It's a...

    That's the system we have, like it or not. I think OJ walked because he was a celebrity, one of many that were never convicted. No doubt he had the very best legal representation and he probably paid...
