  2. RIP. Outstanding boxer and a great personality
  3. I suppose HDPE jugs would be frowned upon.
  4. y'all down under , live in a hostile land full of odd creatures , most of them want to kill ya STRAGE CB šŸ™ƒ
  5. I use SMG. Or have the repair FFL send you a label and charge you for it.
  6. Use ShipMyGun (https://www.shipmygun.com/go/) or have your dealer ship it for you. SMG is pretty easy and the rates are much lower than going direct to UPS in the past. The catch is that the dealer you're shipping to has to be registered with them as well. If they aren't, it's a simple matter of getting them signed up.
  7. according to what I attached from Turnbull Restoration site individuals canā€™t ship their personal Rugers to a gunsmith for action jobs unless they go through an FFL. Seems like UPS and Fed Ex made their own rules that they wonā€™t take them. I am not trying to sell anything just get worked on. anyone been through this? Irish ā˜˜ļø Pat
  8. Okay weā€™ll agree to disagree because I think itā€™s really a dumb argument anyway! Big deal! The important thing is the astronauts returned safely, thatā€™s really all that counts here!šŸ™„
  9. Of the weddings (Millenials and Gen Z'ers) we've attended in the last 5-7 years, we've yet failed to receive a hand written Thank You for our gift. That also includes "new baby" gifts to the same target population. Our friends must all have raised their kids up right.
  10. George was always open , honest, and had a great sense of humor!! I recall an interview on one of the big sports talk shows after heā€™d retired from boxing the second time. Someone asked him what happened in his fight with Ali. He smiled real big and replied, ā€œI have no lie to tell. The man whipped my ass!ā€ I won lunch for a month when he knocked out Michael Moorer! The youngster who lost the bet had said that Moorer was too fast and Foreman would be worn out by the middle rounds. I told him that Foreman was similar to Ali. Ali could ā€œfloat like a butterfly and sting like a beeā€ but George floated like a battleship and hit like a freight train!!
  11. I couldnā€™t care less if I got a thank you note. Just MHO
  12. From https://www.geeksforgeeks.org/george-foreman-kids/#:~:text=George has been married five,seven sons and five daughters. All seven of his sons share the name George Edward Foreman. To avoid confusion, they each have nicknames: George Jr., George III ("Monk"), George IV ("Big Wheel"), George V ("Red"), and George VI ("Little Joey"). Most of them stay out of the spotlight, but George III pursued boxing like his father. He had a successful career with a 16-0 record and 15 knockouts before becoming a trainer and co-founding the EverybodyFights gym in 2014, which has locations in several U.S. cities. [Note for Alpo ā€¦ I donā€™t know about sons 6 and 7. Aha, Wikipedia says five sons and seven daughters.]
  13. A chameleon can go from zero to 60 mph in one-hundredth of a second, something that the worldā€™s fastest cars could never dream of achieving
  14. In the Mediterranean, Diamond rings were first mentioned in writings about 100 AD. Diamonds, imported from India, were uncut and unpolished because nobody knew how to do that yet.
  15. If you're like me you have a box of various cleaners, solvents and oils. I have several that cut the carbon easier than others. The aluminum carriers are easier to clean than the brass ones and easier to do if you clean them frequently instead of letting them build up a lot. If you choose to tumble yours, let the rest of us know about the outcome. Glad to hear your eye surgery went well btw.
  16. Today
  17. Staring and directed by Tommy Lee Jones. This is a great western set in 1910 Texas. Lots of stars. Frances McDorman (Fargo) was worth the price of admittance. We have it on DVD. It looks to be available on Prime. https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0113196/?ref_=ext_shr
  18. Finalized my spring plans by mailing out registrations yesterday. April Boonville birthday match, SW regional, May Siege at Clark's station, MS State, June Prince of Pistoleers. All the monthly matches I can get to in between. Signed up for Land Run in October. This is my first year traveling to shoot.
  19. Instead of avoiding answering the question, I'll take a stab at it. Doing reenacting I've faced that situation. No choice in where our camp was in relation to where the water was. 3 gallon buckets which you put 2 gallons in, and rig some sort of shoulder yolk to hang the buckets on. Why only 2 gallons? Because if you fill it to 3 gallons you will likely have a gallon slosh out before getting back to camp. If you have some sort of closed container, say 3 gallons, you fill it to 3 gallons, and again, hope to have a pair of them and hang them from a shoulder yolk even if it's just an improvised one. If you only have sauce pans, you do the best you can.Every quart of water you bring back is a quart you don't have to walk for later. And make it a rule, everyone who is going to be near the water source ALWAYS takes am empty bucket or jug and brings back more water. Or some firewood. One thing I noticed in our reenacting unit was that those who were always profligate with firewood in the evening were the least likely to be the ones fetching the firewood. They also tended to use the last of the water and not get more. Or do something stupid like clean their mess gear in the bucket that you would be pouring out of for coffee or other cleaning. And not be willing to carry water back to camp.

  21. Doing well, and now that we're in the mountains of Idaho, I'm literally living my childhood dream. And it exceeds all my expectations. I've broken several bones in my hands, and all but 1 in my wrists. That kind of recoil is not something I'm able to do again without a lot of pain. Glad you're enjoying it though.
  22. Functionally, to me, they are identical. But the cross-hatch style looks good and is pretty authentic and the straight lines are kind of ugly.
  23. Our nephew's family never sends any sort of thank you at Xmas either. Family of five!! Gets expensive every year for three kids and we have to call to see if they received the package!!
