My CZ family grew. I really like this one.

Received my latest masterpiece from GT and figured I should have a family photoshoot. He is definitely an artist with steel!

I have a lot of tools and most of my hand tools are USA Craftsman tools from the 70s. My first tool set was a starter set given to me by my Dad. I think mostly so I would stay out of his tools. By the time I needed to replace my 3/8 ratchet they no longer swapped complete ratchets but would give you a replacement gear set for the head. When that wore out again I went back to Sears and they handed me a new ratchet, made in Japan, that just looked and felt cheap. I handed it back to the clerk and asked to have my old ratchet back. Even though my ratchet would no longer function me and that ratchet had been through many engines, repairs and projects together working side by side with my Dad. I eventually picked up a couple more functional USA Craftsman 3/8 ratchets at yard sales. My Dad is now long since gone and I can buy mediocre ratchets anywhere, but the Craftsman ratchet my Dad gave me is in my tool chest where it belongs, even if it doesn't work.

When the squad leader isn't everyone's favorite person...

Reminds me of Johnny Cash's '49, '50, '51, '52, '53, '54, '55, '56, '57, '58' 59' automobile.

Tucker did a segment on his rise and fall that included a clip of him groveling and apologizing to the women on "The View" about his white male privilige. Something about how he was so unfairly liked and popular by the media because of his race and gender... they were beating him up over it. Absolutely sickening how he sucked up to them.

Here's an interesting story. My father worked in the office at the old International Harvester Foundry here in Memphis for 33 years. IH bought all of Sear's broken tools and melted them down for other uses. My Dad was in charge of them. When a load of these broken tools came in they had to be kept locked up and very secure. Otherwise the plant workers would steal them and take them to Sears to be replaced.

Craftsman tools have been crap for close to 30 years now. They were still made in the USA when they started to decline. Not to mention K-mart being an exclusive distributor when they were still around.

I wish they would pick one or the other and just leave it there. OTOH. At least two days a year all the clocks in my house read the same.

Beto’s Looking for a new job now. He’s out.

I purchased a 1/4 drive socket set, from Lows, a couple months ago. I don't believe the Craftsman tools are as well built as older tools were.

I need to do this. Mines getting to be a rather large family I’m afraid. Lol

There’s a bunch of Andrew Zimmerns running around here.

A person that won't eat ground hog has never really been hungry because they would find ground hog a wonderful meal. Groundhog in an oven surrounded with Potatoes carrots and maybe a few slices of onion slow cooked is a delicacy fit for a king...……… They are also great slow cooked in a smoker wrapped in foil with an assortment of veggies and spices!!!!

If you have never seen a groundhog after it is cleaned and ready to cook you would be very surprised at how clean the meat is and , very little fat and bright red and their hide after skinned is white as snow. I have ate them most of my life growing up and most of them were corn fed and harvested from corn fields or fence rows in corn fields.

Picked up a bottle of Steve Rinella's new bourbon. Think I will wait till I get a deer this year to break her open.

If you are interested in eating not your ordinary types of animals, this is a good show to watch. Dead Meats with Scott Leysath https://www.thesportsmanchannel.com/show/dead-meat/81974

@Oh Shoot is a connoisseur of eating groundhogs.

I’d be down to try it. As far as I’m concerned any meat producing critter has the potential to end up as dinner.

I currently use a Tuxton Tactical IWB/AIWB holster for my P365 w/the Lima laser. Attached pixs for reference. I've linked their page specifically for the XL version. https://www.tuxtontactical.com/shop/26730070/p365-xl-holsters Additionally you might want to check out Mutli-Holsters. They offer a version that is a IWB/OWB depending on the clips you use. I've gotten several other holsters from them over the years and have been pleased. They can be highly customized depending on what you want. https://www.multiholsters.com/shop/outside-the-waistband-holsters/2-in-1-multi-holster/

I'm not sure how well that would be, but probably not. I'm certainly not computer savvy enough to figure out how to post a YouTube video. I'm not a good enough shot to own a Colt Gold Cup National Match pistol either, but I still enjoy shooting it.

Doug I think you should feed Darby when she is hungry, or can she actually read a clock? LOL!!

Everyone took Hide and Seek very serious

We've had a groundhog living in the back of our yard for a couple years, the wife decided that he's a pet and named him Henry. I haven't minded too much having a "pet" that I didn't have to feed or clean up after, and it pretty much keeps to the back wooded area and has left the lawn alone. Last year Henry got pretty fat and it turned out Henry was actually a Henrietta, who dropped off a few dismounts. Not sure what happened to all the little ones but Henrietta is still out and about almost every day. There will be hell to pay from the wife and kids if anything ever happens to it as they will think I had something to do with it .
