You ain't invited. My dog doesn't like you, so I don't like you, either and your damned bats crap all over my belfry.
And don't be looking at me in that tone of voice.
And just for what it's worth I bought 200 rounds of ,45 Colt with silver bullets from the Lone Ranger and have painted them with a garlic and clear Rustoleum coating.
Go away! Stay away!

Waffles were a huge source of marital discord in my family when I was growing up.
They stuck to the iron, and then caused all sorts of disharmony.Today, I am the waffle man for my monthly lodge breakfast.
We have one of those machines that flips over after you close it.
PAM spray makes every waffle come out perfectly, with no breakage or sticking.2~2 1/2 minutes does the trick.
I use the Krusteaz waffle mix, best price is Sams or Costco.
I mix per directions, but toss in a bit of vanilla extract and Cinnamon powder.I have Krusteaz mixes for all sorts of stuff.. he only one they have that I don't use is corn bread mix and for that Jiffy can't be beat for cost, ease, and a good bread. I add a tea spoon of fresh bacon grease and crumbled meat to make it even better. Put real butter and natural honey and it can be, and often is, a meal all by itself.
I add extra cranberries and a large spoonful of orange marmalade to the Krusteaz mixes, exra chocolate chips ( both Toll House and White chocolate), nuts. raisins, bananas, and whatever else to the others.
GOOOOD FIXIN'S!!

What is your first thought when you see the title of this email ad?
Are they selling both revolvers and pistols chambered in 45 automatic?
Or are they selling both revolvers and automatic pistols chambered in caliber 45?
I thought the first. That's the only reason I opened the ad - to see what 45 ACP revolvers they were selling.
They have mostly automatics in that ad. They have four revolvers. Three are Taurus judge and the other one is a Ruger vaquero. All four are chambered in 45 Colt. Doesn't say anything about the vaquero having two cylinders or that the judge will accept ACP.
So I'm assuming that their ad meant to say "auto pistols and revolvers in 45 caliber".
But I don't believe that's what it actually says. And I don't think the Oxford comma would help.
Looking at it again before I click SUBMIT, I suppose it could mean that they have a total of 45 handguns for sale - some automatics and some revolvers.
Nothing offered that I want.

Guess I don't get out enough. Might be why it's been long since I've had waffles.

I'll have KC Sirloin, blood red, with Delmonico potatoes and buttered broccoli, followed by vanilla custard and strawberries. For a drink, a couple of bottles of Ballantine's and Arbuckle's for dessert. My pal, Joe is picking up the tab!
Well, I can agree with the vanilla custard and strawberries, and in a pinch I'll take the potatoes. I'll take the sirloin too, if you can cook it...up to a medium rare.
My folks moved down form the caves and trees many generations ago and we don't eat raw meat. (Dang Texas barbarians. Probably cannibals, too.)

Looks like Trader Joe's "Cracked Olive Salad". I doesn't say sandwich spread on it, but it works in that role, too. It's a bit over-bearing at first but is truly habit forming.

Down side: I took the plates out of the dish-washer and two had become three. One had broken about a third of the way across making the whole thing useless.
Just ordered a replacement from Amazon. It will be here Wednesday for under $40:00. There's just me and the dog, so I don't need a big one...and this one makes round waffles about 8" in diameter.
I never heard of round waffles before. Do they taste any different?

Lots of puppy scams on Craig's list. Most want money up front. One scam is a listing in a specific town and the sellers do not reside there. Another is using the same picture in several ads. I remember a friend who saw his dog for sale (they stole the photo from facebook).
There are also legitimate sellers too, you just have to be careful.
You might not get a pedigree, but there are thousands of great pets who need homes. My "rescue" dog couldn't be a better member of the Taylor clan. She is a 12 year old mutt and I have invested, not counting food and normal care, less the $1,000.00 in her. That's less than $100.00 a year. She has some dental issues coming up that will cost a bunch, but she has earned the care she'll get.
I've had a half dozen pedigreed dogs, (not counting the 60 something that we got when we were raising pedigreed beagles) from our bitches and some other people's pedigreed dogs), and maybe three times as many without any papers at all. I'm here to tell you that a pedigree isn't worth the paper it's written on when it comes to telling anyone what the dog has inside. They just give you bragging rights over something that doesn't really matter. Not any more than a human's "pedigree" can tell you what they are worth. Look at the people who have the influence in our nation and their "dynasties". Are they superior in any way to anyone else?
Rescue a pet and you will likely find that they have rescued you.....from something.

We are fighting 2 wars by proxi.
Ukraine vs Russia
Israel vs Iran
Yeah, but WE haven't even seriously fought, much less won, any war since 1945.
We walked away from Korea without anything bur a cease fire, which NK has violated dozen of times; walked away from Vietnam leaving millions of people to the murderous dictatorial government, and supplying that new government with millions of dollars worth of stuff that we didn't even make of an effort to destroy; been fiddling around in the Middle East in a war that has been going on for a thousand years; took a side in a fight between two of the most criminal governments in history, supporting the side we chose with anything they want; are tolerating people in our own country who are against the only nation we should be supporting because we are responsible for their very existence; allowed entire nations that we destroyed in the last war we fought and brought them to their knees without any chance of surviving, helping them to get up and be against us all over the planet; allowing our own government to encourage and even assist invaders from over our southern border to walk in without so much as a harsh word, supporting the invaders who violate every single law and value we had; etdamncetera.
Proxi? No! We are being used by the enemies of our state and by the government that we deserve for letting it happen. WE don't vote, We don't protest, We don't express ourselves to the media, the elected officials, and the power-hungry criminals who buy the government".
WE don't care enough to much more than complain without action.
Rant over.

I got a new non-stick 6" skillet and "baptised" it this morning.
A lady gave me some waffle mix that she invented.....heavy on the vanilla which I like anyway, and with a slight touch of nutmeg. So I decided to try it. It's been years since I ate any waffles. No good reason, but I just never did. I eat pancakes and French toast, and other such, but just never got waffles.
I almost didn't this morning. Somehow I misplaced the waffle iron and it took me an hour or more to find it...on a shelf in the guest bedroom. My friend's waffle mix, lots of butter, real light maple syrup from a place in Canada (I think. Not sure.), two scrambled eggs and a few slices of bacon, my favorite 50% / 50% mix of Tropicana OJ and Langer's 100% apple juice, Farmer Brother's 100% arabica coffee that everyone has tasted but they don't know it because it's usually the coffee used in restaurants. (I don't really like coffee, but I need something to put the sugar in), and a few canned sliced mushrooms fried in the butter left in the the pan from the corn and with a small bit of Lea and Perrin's Worcestershire sauce.
I used some of the garlicky seasoning I mentioned in another space, fresh ground black pepper and a lot less salt than usual because of the garlic seasoning.
A near perfect breakfast except for one thing: I now have to wash the dishes. Weeeeeeel, there's always tomorrow.
Oh, BTW, waffles are back on my menu after several decades.

Who knew?
I met a lady at a "farmer's Market" a few days back. She is Kay of Kay's Best Garlicky Seasonings. We got to talking and I bought a small jar of her signature seasoning (named in the last sentence). She suggested some places to use it.
Eggs: Sure. I have used garlic before and this milder and easier.
Bacon: Really? I tried it and it's really good, but you need the be careful because you can over garlic some things.
Oven roasted chicken: Didn't like it because it conflicts with my other seasoning. Might be good if you use it alone.
Roast beef: Season beef before cooking. Everything else you can add it at any time.
Fresh cantaloup: Just a smidge is enough, but it isn't bad. Beat salt an pepper.
I'm going to give it a try tonight on baked salmon with asparagus and a mild gouda cheese sauce.
I have some turkey thawing and will try it there and on the buttered niblet corn that will side the turkey.
I'm thinking it might go well with popcorn, some salads, hamburgers, french fries and likely any other potato dish, perk chops, and beef stew. How about grilled onions or butter fried mushrooms. Maybe some chip dip or different spreads and butters. Maybe cocktail sauce for seafood. My recipe for Cole slaw will be dolled up gently with it and I'm thinking about what it would add to some Mexican or Chinese dishes.
Marinades!!!
Check her website for garlic bread, Jamaican Jerk and some other suggestions.

There was a movement a few years back to restore some of the Harvey Houses. Does anyone know how that turned out?

1 hour ago, Subdeacon Joe said:A wagon train following the California Trail across Nevada during the 1860's. The Bartleson-Bidwell Party were the first wagon train to take the California Trail across Nevada in 1841. By 1869 there had been an estimated 450,000 people who had taken a covered wagon along the California Trail in Nevada. The 40 mile desert between Lovelock, and Fernley was the worst part of that trail because there was no water. In Fallon during the 1930's you could still find a lot of debris from the wagon trains that had crossed that stretch of desert.
There are people who will tell you this picture was taken way later, just based on the hat the man in the bottom right corner is wearing.
I will use it as proof that most of my hats are, in fact, historically correct...and the sheer number of wagons will bear me out, too.
Thanks, Joe. This will turn some long-standing arguments my way.

Back when I was still hunting we didn't know about plastic sheets, etc. I wish we had because dragging a travois is really more work than I wanted. We used a small tarp to drag a deer out...ONCE! A real PITAT. Toward the end someone sold a fold up cart, sort of like a wheelbarrow. I saw some in stores but never saw one used. Maybe ten pounds of aluminum, a couple of web straps, and a solid rubber-like tire, folded into a 2' x' 2' x 1' pack.

I started wearing Dan Post boots about 25 years ago when I couldn't afford anything better. (you don't earn much when your aerospace company.....not really mine, but I worked for them..... loses a bid for a big government contract.)
Learn which ones fit, and make ertain they do actually fit, care for them, and they will last a long time. They can usually have new heels and soles put on. I just had mine done for the fourth time for soles and eleventh time for heels. That pair are close to nineteen years old and I won't have them done again. They are now my yard work boots and I have four other pair for anything up to and including a coronation...or the Marine Corps Birthday Banquet and Ball on the 10th of this month.
BTW, the ones I get are about $200.00 these days at Boot Barn or C.A.L. Ranch.
Hint: if you want a really good and very easy shine, get KIWI Parade Gloss Polish. I had to order it from Amazon because few stores around here carry ANY shoe polish at all. So far I have only found it in black.

In Arizona it's a crime to remove campain posters on someone else property, sooooo.....maybe 15 seconds after I shot him I'd dial 911 and let the LEOs take it from there.
