  1. OH, perish forbid. Say it isn't so!
  2. But it is so uncommon these days that we really have no way of knowing for sure whether it is or not
  3. Assuming that these ancient aliens did, for all intents and purposes, do all they are thought by some to have done, rather than a GOD or GODS...even to the point of creating humans millions of years ago from scrtach, and nurturing, teaching and modifying them, assisting them as they grew and became what we have become today with all of our achievements and faults...that poses a question that has not yet been dealt with nor even mentioned, much less answered: WHO CREATED THEM? .....and who created the ones who created their creators ad infinitum?
  4. Thank you. I heard about it on a series called Ancient Aliens (History Channel) and decided to see if some of these things are true. Many are probablys, quite a bunch are sounds goods and possiblys and maybes, and some are just pure BS, and opinions of people with no basis in fact, and a few are simply babble put together by mentally deficient and psychological misfits. Fascinating, though. It stirs up a whole passel of things to make one think. Thanks again.
  5. When I was in the Army, and again in the Marine Corps, we had thermite grenades duct taped to the tops of safes containing Secret and / or Top Secret information or other materials. If we were in danger of being over run and didn't have time to move the safes or their contents, we were to pull the pin and run like hell. It would have destroyed anything and everything in the safe, the safe, and whatever the safe was sitting on.
  6. First one is an empty box, second is already built. Thanks anyway.
  7. Okay, I see the answer, but what was the question?
  8. I agree that glass is a great material, but "the most important material ever made"? NO, not by a long shot. Steel is still the champion, followed, in no particular order, by concrete, gunpowders of many varieties, a bunch of synthetic cloths, gasoline, paper and ink, toothpaste (select your favorite brand), plain old fashioned soaps, (again, your choice), dozens or scores of lightweight metals, hoards of ceramics, microwave defices of many kinds, and hundreds of others. A non-breakable glass for your smart phone doesn't even make the top...oh, I don't know...maybe a million other inventions and discoveries.
  9. And that's why the other counties NEED a gun sanctuary law. Looks like there is a "sunrise" in the west. I hope the entire state gets on board the pro-gun wagon and runs the commie pukes out of office and takes California back to the "paradise" it was when the Corps sent me there in the seventies.
  10. I save time and energy by HATING YOU TUBE!
  11. Opinions are like a-- h---s: everyone has them.....and some are better than others. ;D
  12. I am Oscar's hero !!!
  13. Someone ought to get a Federal grant to study this. Why not! Grants are granted for much stupider things.
  14. Some of you Ausies might know what I'm talking about. Tell me about the mountain (Black Mountain?) some 15 miles south of there that has mysteries connected to it.
  15. I have noticed this for years but all of a sudden I just gotta know. In the dark with a flashlight eyes reflect light back. So far, so good....but my dog's eyes reflect traffic signal green. The next door neighbor's cat shows a bright yellow, but the cat across the street has eyes that are more gold. The big old owl in my tree has eyes that are bright white, but two smaller breed owls out there have light yellow eyes. The dog across the street has pale green eyes, and the peregrine falcons all have pale turquoise colored eyes. The pronghorns that were so plentiful before contractors ran them off so we could have more ticky tacky houses all seemed to have reddish pinkish eyes. It isn't going to wreck my week if I don't find out, but I'd kind of like to know: have any of you noticed this? Can anyone explain it?
  16. I'm retired, so whenever I feel like it.
  17. Once about 55 years ago. I really like ducks, just don't like to eat ducks.
  18. Dropped Costco awhile back, Sam Club moved down to Phoenix, 100 miles away, about six years ago. I'm going to check Amazon next, They're only three miles for here and usually have whatever I want. Thanks, I'll take a look.
  19. I bought an Ithaca 37 when I was about 15 years old, 12 gauge, 26" barrel, extra full choke. A guy had traded it for a Browning and the Ithaca had hardly been fired. I gave something like $75.00 for it. Over the years I bought and sold six more and then I sold one...and a year later found they had quit making them. I finally found one in very good condition after we moved here. Cost $400.00 and worth every penny. This time it won't get sold. I agree with you about the Savage. I don't want a tang sight nor a scope. I had a friend had one in .250-3000 that was a marvelous rifle but I've never owned on myself. I want a .30-30 because I have about a 10 year supply of ammo, and I want the E model with the little window in the side so you can see how many rounds are still in the mag. I'd like one with a plain stock without that pressed checkering. I have a thing for lever action rifles : 1860 Henry, 66, 73, 76, 86, 92, 94, and 95 Winchesters or clones. Bought a Colt-Burgess clone from a cowboy shooter about a year ago. I have had a Whitney-Kennedy sporter with an S lever, a Whitney-Scharf sporter, and a Whiney-Burgess second model. I also had a Evans new model sporter. Add a Marlin 1889 rifle, a 1893, and an 1894 and I have loved them all. I still have the Henry and all seven of the Winchesters and the Colt-Burgess. The others got sold (Except the Whiney-Burgess which was stolen) when the kids and wife wanted to eat and I didn't have a job. I can't afford most of them any more but I can fins a Savage for a decent price...if I last long enough.
  20. Does that have anything to do with her being your EX-wife? Oooops! That's none of my business. Sorry
  21. Most of the time that's true. I have had a few disaster type messes, but they didn't kill me...yet.
  22. I did. They haven't any idea what I'm talking about. We have 2 Walmarts in the area, neither one is worth my time any more.
  23. Bubba, you covered all the bases: simple and strange!
  24. Thank you kindly.
