  1. Rewarding their barking and aggressive behavior usually only reinforces it. We had a neighbor who rode around on a Segway. He had a pouch full of dog biscuits and would give one to every dog he came across. He'd tease the dog a bit to get it barking, then give it a treat. It wasn't long before he had every dog in the neighborhood barking at him as he rode around. It was especially irritating when you've got a toddler and he comes around at nap time every day. It took a couple conversations, first polite then less so, to convince him that while his intentions were good, the result wasn't.
  2. Unfortunately you have both lazy neighbors and lazy cops. Get video of all the interactions both people and dogs chasing you, cars, and/or bicycles. Get enough to show a pattern. If the cops won't do anything, go to the media. Aggressive dogs have become something of a hot button recently. I'd avoid the guy with the gun and his dog named Aryan. Too many red flags there. I'm guessing the cops may have been trying to do you a favor. I'll bet they know him.
  3. My cover crop of field peas is doing quite well. I was considering pulling them up this weekend but I'll wait since it's getting cold again.
  4. Barnwood Builders? I don't see any big old beams that would have significant value, but they might be able to recommend someone. Local craftsmans guild who would use the material?
  5. I'd argue the reverse is more likely. My sister-in-law had twins. They had to induce because the girl had pinched the boy's umbilical cord and his vitals were degrading. My comment was... "so it begins". It wasn't well received.
  6. I don't track anyone. My wife and boys (13, 16) all have iPhones while I have android so the "find my phone" is available for her. We also use quistodio to filter their data and limit their screen time. I think it's got a tracking feature, but I don't have it on my phone. I guess I should. I agree that active tracking sounds like insecurity issues on one or both sides, but I also don't have daughters or live in a big city. Even though they make me mad sometimes, I want to raise independent people. The one letter text is a good idea. I'll present that to my family.
  7. The "can't rack the slide" issue is usually more a technique problem rather than a lack of strength problem. I've found 2 main points to emphasize when someone has trouble. First... push, don't pull. Hold the pistol up near your chest where you've got good leverage. Hold the slide with your whole hand across the top and push hard and fast with the strong hand on the pistol grip. Second... don't be timid. Its more like throwing a punch than pushing open a door. Guns are tough, you're not likely to break it.
  8. Yep, take her to the rental counter at your local range and let her try whatever she wants.
  9. A friend had one a couple months ago and had bypass surgery. He had to have a stent repaired about a week ago but is recovering well. Stick with the rehab and you'll be fine.
  10. We went axe throwing for my son's birthday a while back. Kinda pricey for what it is, but we had fun.
  11. Check out "History that doesn't suck" by Greg Jackson. Good US history stuff. Journey of a Christian Dad by Dan Luigs.
  12. Isn't the whole point of the hearing to explain the situation to the justices? The manner of that explanation is the lawyer's job. As stated, the justices then weigh the explanation against the existing law and give an interpretation.
  13. I have a 2004 Chevy Trailblazer with 180k. My wife has a 2006 Toyota Sienna with 260k. Both have had some issues. My older boy turns 16 next week.... I'd like to get my wife something newer, let the boy drive the blazer and I'll drive the van until it falls apart. It would be nice to get something with better gas mileage for my 70 mile daily round trip but the math just doesn't work with used car prices in the stratosphere.
  14. Chord voicings are what I've been trying to learn more about lately. There's so many different ways to play a G chord, and figuring out which one works best in a certain place in a certain song and why is difficult and rewarding.
