  1. LOL! This has been an on-going controversy for decades. It will never die. It's right up there with the "Which is better...9 or 45?"
  2. You should! That's the best one I had. Just got a new lower from FoxTrot Mike and going to try for another build.
  3. We were called a lot of things back then; but "rich" was never one of them. Small town. Population of less than 800. We didn't make the cut for the "better" side of town. Dad was a mechanic and Mom worked at Georgia Shoe. Had to have a white collar job to be in the social register there.
  4. Slightly off track, but you brought up the chocolate pie Mac. lol The Rose Garden Cafe, just off the Smithville/Center Hill Dam Exit on I40 has excellent homemade pies. The Chocolate is wonderful, and the coconut is a close second! It's about 15 miles West of Cookeville, and for the redneck guys...about 6 miles from Baxter.
  5. I don't worry about...I use sandwich bread. Just like I did growing up.
  6. Personally think that Surefire is a bit to large for the frame, but really like the Holosun aon the slide and the new grips. I have an older MkIII that might benefit from some changes like this.
  7. You got some very nice ones! Someday maybe I'll post mine.
  8. Wish I'd listened more closely to mine. I'd be a better person today.
  9. Methinks Collin might be a tad suspect.
  10. These guys are having way too much fun!
  11. Good clear and concise. I like it. So my 2 day, supposedly 16 hour class with the late, great, Buford Tune got me what is now an Enhanced Carry Permit? Name on the card might change when my renewal comes up in 2025?
  12. That seems to be the usual case with book-to-movie adaptations. The current movie MONSTERS is a great example. I absolutely cannot believe how bad it was. Larry Correia's books in this series are great. Also one of the all-time stinkers for me...Raise the Titanic. Such a wonderful book. Read and re-read many times. Some of Clive Cussler's best work. The movie was one of the worst I've ever seen. ADD I agree about WWZ as well. No relation to the novel. Well not enough to make it any good.
  13. Thanks for the commentary on the "Crisis" books. I have seen them and been intrigued, just haven't bought any yet. Have far too many lying around now that I'll probably never have enough time to read before I'm gone. Plus, I just started re-reading some of my older stuff. William W. Johnstone's Ashes series, and Jerry Ahern's Survivalist books. Also have A. American's Going Home, and Joe Nobody's books in line. Both are quite dated now, but still enjoyable for me. If you want some sheer trashy fun, try Mack Maloney's Wingman series. I can't believe I actually once bought the Wingman stuff. lol.
  14. Can you 'splain enhanced vs standard in small words for me? Really. I'd like a good interpretation of it.
  15. Yes, I know Steelharp is gone, but when I saw this...I just had to smile. Brought back memories. Miss you buddy.
  16. I like this idea! I should have thought of that! But I', a bit on the slow side these days. lol Thanks.
  17. Where can I find a smaller than 55 gal drum to use as a burn barrel? Would prefer something about half that size. Just to use for mail and some old documents.
  18. Would have been nice to have some information on production dates on this though. Would save some of us a lot of trouble in digging thru boxes!
  19. That would be fantastic! A new gun store and a possible range! I'm all for it! Nothing against GlockStore, but the lack of a traditional range disappoints me greatly. I'll be watching as well.
  20. As I read all these comments and wishes and prayers offered, I am reminded once again why I spend so much time here. So many very good people! I thank you one and all for your prayers. Now to update the situation. Molly is much better, not perfect; but gaining a little strength everyday. Has begun to eat a bit more and is drinking water well. The lasting concern is her weight loss. Has been a solid 36/39 pounds for the last 5/6 years. She has dropped to 32 in the last few weeks. Fears of the C word and some elevated liver enzymes are here. I refuse to be pessimistic. But I understand her age and condition. Whatever comes our way, I know such a beautiful and loving spirit as she has will be waiting for us if she leaves before us to join her other friends gone before. God does not give such gifts as these to simply remove them forever from us. So again brothers...we thank you for all the prayers and beautiful messages. I will keep information coming as I get something to tell.
  21. Susan would beat us all in going after anyone hurting Molly or any other animal.
  22. Thank you brother.
  23. Thanking God and you all for prayers! We see some improvement this morning. Molly has actually stood and walked out to potty. Drank some water nibbled on a few chopped bits a greenie. Not much, but first in 24 hours. Not saying all is perfect, but Molly is much better this morning.
