One thing to consider. If your beard hairs are quite thick in diameter (read older guys), some of those rectangular head foil shavers will not cut those hairs. The little holes in the foil just do...

I had a recliner bought in 1996 I think, finally give up the ghost a few months ago. I had repaired it a number of times. The rocker spring units replaced, and springs under the seat replaced a...

Piggly Wiggly is still doing business in several West Tennessee towns.

I believe there is a scene in a movie from 1956 called "The Last Hunt", where the two main characters are reloading their buffalo cartridges around a campfire. I'll have to dig that out of my...

I would like to buy one box of these. Will send PM.

I bought a Savage Axis in 223 Remington a bit over 10 years ago now. Coupled with 55 grn. hollow points (Varmint Nightmare) from Midsouth, and 25 grs. Varget, I was able to maintain 1/2 MOA at 100...

This is just a suggestion for a relatively inexpensive way for you to get some idea of what you may need. Being in my mid 60's, and wearing glasses and now magnifiers, I have a small bit of...

A bit over 10 years ago when I was still working, I bit the bullet and got the Forster 3-in-1 cutters for 223 and 30 caliber, the power trimmer base, and the nicest Sears Craftsman full cast iron...

Just a test to see if the ALT+0176 makes the degree symbol on this forum.

It is 47° here today. I guess it works!

Same experience here. After using a dozen other brands of tires over the years, when I got my first set of Michelin on my pickup, I was muttering to myself, "I should have been getting these all...

I own three "Tauri".

First one I got was a PT22. Fair little pistol, not very accurate, and very picky on ammo type.

The other semi-auto is a Millennium PT45. First cartridge I ever cast a...

I was looking in my retirement journal, and made a notation on May 4th, 2015. I saw the only flying B-29 (at the time), "FIFI" high over Henderson, TN. I was stopped at a traffic intersection and...

I had a '91 Caravan some years ago. Probably had about 75,000 miles on it when bought. Had the Mitsubishi 3.0 V6, and it burned so much oil that the seller called it "Old Smoky". I got it for quite...

KM4MYM here. My hearing is shot, so I rarely if ever use voice or audio. However, I have a lot more flexibility in using certain frequencies for telemetry in other hobbies I have.

I have assembled my own 300AAC Blackout, and 458 SOCOM rifles. Both were attractive to me, because all my standard AR magazines work without modification. I can swap uppers and lowers between the...

One of my bucket list items for retirement, was to camp out in Glacier National Park, Montana. I did so in September of 2015 just a few days before the roads were closed for the season. I knew from...

When I retired at the end of 2014, I started keeping a daily journal of what I was doing, where I went, tasks done, etc.

When I was working, I knew exactly how many minutes to quitting time was,...

By snail mail here, each July. Must fill out form each year, dues by check, with current NRA number and expiration (if not lifetime member).

On the other side of the spectrum, I remember one summer working in a refinery. One engine room where the big motors and compressors were, was usually around 130 degrees or so in July. I worked in...

That was a great lesson in WW2 history for me. Seeing that veteran pilots eyes light up when he realized that the gear down landing footage was him, made the show. Thanks for the link. Spitfires had...

I rebuilt a section of my deck last year, that I should have done 10 years previous when I repaired the other section. I was quite astounded, than in only 10 years, the earths gravity had increased,...

Last year, I had just installed a 209 shotgun primer ignition system, on a Knight muzzleloader I had used caps on. I was very excited about trying this out.

The first conversion kit I got,...

In November of 2008, I too was brand new to casting and reloading. Something happened that month, that motivated me to dive in full bore. The 45 ACP was the first cartridge I ever cast a boolit...

Guess I've seen everything already mentioned in the thread (I'm a movie freak).

Couple more that I do not recall being mentioned that are in my collection.

"The Stalking Moon", 1968, with...

I listened to this story by Alan Watts many years ago, on "optimism and pessimism". Always thought it quite the lesson.
