    No more Boy Scouts

    As mentioned, this has been coming for years and it is a sad commentary. The left does not want boys to be boys and eventually men. My opinion. Regardless, we quit supporting them years ago, no popcorn, nothing. It is kind of sad when a cute boy comes to the house asking us to buy popcorn and...

    Fair market value

    If there was a gun show close, as in 2 hours or so, my wife and I went. Not so any more. We just go to a few select ones and one local that isn’t much but I get to see and talk to several people. We hadn’t been to Tulsa since the pandemic and went last November, a bit disappointed but made a...

    Cat in a window

    We are "babysitting" this little guy, Zane, for our daughter as she and her husband relocate. We haven't had a cat since our kids were little and then I got too busy running schools and never home. Daughter now says he is ours as we have somehow managed to spoil him, not sure how that happened...

    Carpal Tunnel surgery in the morning...

    Peoples experiences should can vary on this surgery depending on how and when it was done. I had it a few years ago, right wrist and an elbow cubital at the same time. The doc explained how it works, just a tiny slit in the wrist and they insert a thin blade and run it up into your hand and cut...

    Beef prices up

    There are several "stories" inside this story. If you think the price of beef is high now, just wait. I live in cattle and farm country and have several friends who have cow/calf operations. During the drought, feed was scarce and many sold off older cows which created a glut on the meat...

    Walking sticks for self-defense..

    Many years ago when I was interested in martial arts and earned my black belt in Taekwondo, I met a guy who was trained in weapons including throwing stars, bow staff, nunchucks and more. After listening to him and reading many books, it is clear the "staff" which can be anything from a fallen...

    Been a BIG week

    So, you are saying you decided to retire and did actually did it? I kid. My background is education although for the first 15 years of my working life I was in auto collision. It took me 4 different attempts to retire. The first from a small college I was running, the second from a Christian...

    Culture variation in the Midwest

    I lived in Grand Island from 78-83. Both kids born there, loved it, just a bit too cold for my old bones now. The cranes were just a common appearance and we watched them and it wasn't the "event" it is now. They wanted to put a new interchange into GI from I80 and it was blocked for years...

    Dillon SDB question

    The SDB is a relatively basic machine. Once you take the primer assembly out and look it over, it becomes apparent how it works. I am sure they had you measure and adjust the primer cup which is probably the most important part. After that, you are correct, a handful of plastic parts that wear...

    Recommendations on buying a Dremel.

    I have a little different take. I had a Dremel for many years, didn't use it all that much and the plastic deteriorated and it wouldn't stay together after several years. About a year or so ago I picked up one on sale, very inexpensive through my local Menards. It is corded and yes all my other...

    hacked credit card

    My question is what is all of this going to look like when we get rid of cash and go full blown CBDC? I am sure it will be sold as being much safer and more reliable. The web that has been spun with all the pieces of technology is unreal and the average person is clueless. We are all pawns in...

    Gun parts imported from China - who would have guessed?

    I had heard about this but didn't get all the details. When will someone in this country wake up to the fact we have enemies that wish us harm and hate our way of life? I confess to not knowing how these parts work as well...

    hacked credit card

    Kevin Your story mirrors ours almost exactly. It has now occurred twice in about a year. My wife monitors all of that portion of our finances, I take care of the investing and management. We had a Lowes card that was not hacked but fraud alert apparently triggered something. She attempted to...
