When I saw the date of the OP I thought "April fools". I guess it wasn't.
For 99% of my life I have lived in areas where I could go shooting either from the back porch or within a few miles of home....

OP, I have eaten things 20+ years old if the can is not bulged or damaged. YMMV
I agree 100%.
I have a well stocked pantry that I could eat from for over a year, but I try to rotate...

I'm guessing that is the same model fan that was in the house I grew up in. If it is, the motor is about $80 on amazon. Likely more from other dealers. If it is the same fan, it's round and I don't...

You have the tank set correctly IF the gauge you checked the tank pressure with is correct, and the pressure switch is actually turning the pump on at 30 PSI. It sounds to me like you still have too...

I agree with a lot of what you said, but I still think a lot of what is given out would be hard for a person or family to use. Last year we got a pallet of boxes of shelled walnuts. In each box was...

I also volunteer at a local food bank, and my experience is basically the same. We get bags of nuts, rice and dry beans from the USDA that most people getting the donations don't know how or have the...

I've had both. I liked the feel of the heat from the wood stove best, but the wood stove was more of a mess than the pellet stove. Burning pellets for me was less expensive and far easier. I no...

"I really don't want to involve any friends as no one knows about this safe and I'd like to keep it that way" he said on the world wide web.
A 500 lb safe is about 150 lb heavier that an average...

Every time I pull up to a stop light it shuts the engine off, then re-starts when I let off the brake. This "fuel saving" feature bugs me. Since I rarely drive the car (my wife has put 99.999% of the...

If you are moving from Texas to SE Wyoming or NE Nevada, and you haven't spent a winter in either place, you will be in for a surprise.

Shippo is another option to use for shipping. I did about 12 packages last month. It gives you the option of several shippers, and based on size and weight you choose what works best for you. I...

My cherished cleaning memory with my dad....
After mom passed away, I was helping dad clean out his garage. Most of the stuff was junk and went into the back of the pickup to take to the dump. Every...

I'm an electrician. I just cringe when someone asks electrical questions on a bullet casting forum. There is good, bad and plain unsafe advice given, and the OP is usually left as uninformed as...

My dads ship left Pearl Harbor a couple days before the bombing and was turned around to help in clean up and rescue efforts. My dads sister was a nurse at Pearl harbor. One of dads brothers was in...

I need recommendations for a red dot sight for my 22 pistol.
The pistol this will go on is a Taurus TX22 competition. The sight mounts directly to the barrel so weight will not be a factor in slide...

I made a pot of the best chili I've ever had last week. Over the top chili in my Camp Chef pellet grill. All ingredients in a cast iron dutch oven except the meat. set a cooling rack over the pot...

For about 20 years my FIL would stop at a house along the route he drove taking his steers to market and ask the owner if he would sell a '59 Edsel that was sitting in the field. "Nope, I'm going to...

I have been powder coating boolits (shake and bake) for a few years now, with limited success.

This is not an argument, but my thoughts. Why would Ruger not make the Model 60? I wouldn't view it as competition for the 10/22. I'd think of it as an additional sale. Can't have too many 22's. Add...
