  1. Used to have hundreds of them every year at Lynx Lake. That's only five or so miles from my home. I've seen a few dozen in or near my yard. The last few years the numbers have dwindled down to much smaller pairs....less than a hundred.....because of drought, pollution, man-made things like buildings, roads, air pollution, etc. It's really sad.
  2. 😄 Kinda like California (and a bunch of other state and lesser government entities) North. 😀
  3. It wasn't like that in the old days. 😮
  4. That just scares the hell out of me. What will be allowed next and will it be accepted as real? Can someone be convicted based on this crap if it is seen by a jury?
  5. Wow, Bear, you sure captured a lot of cute in those pictures. Thanks.
  6. I've been working with computers since 1966. I still don't understand them, don't trust them, hate what I have to deal with just to get something very simple because everyone seems to use them for everything but scratching their butts.
  7. Animal abuse. Shoot the woman, get the animal into a rehab program.
  8. I made a place for it in my gun room and am waiting for it to be delivered. Took all of my butter and egg money to get it. Eat your hearts out. (This message is federally approved 100% BS, and you all know how federally approved BS is.)
  9. I turned Otto out into the "unemployable under any circumstances" line. It's a bit more difficult to proof everything I type but well worth the lack of aggravation I enjoy now.
  10. Sounds like a fancy new drink.
  11. I don't often watch musical movies as a general rule so I surprised myself with two that I like back to back. Flower Drum Song: Miyoshi Umeki was the heart and sole of the movie and I never thought she got the credit she deserved. One thing has always bothered me: The father was pushed into putting his money in the bank after being robbed while returning from the bank. He had gone there to get smaller bills from $100.00. After putting his money in the bank he had to go there to get his money in cash. How did he gain anything by doing that? South Pacific: Great movie in every respect save one: they kept messing around with the blurring of the edges of some scenes and going ridiculously monochrome on other scenes.
  12. Who has one (or the coach gun variety of it) and what are your opinions?
  13. My mother told us that there were only eight planets when she was growing up. When Pluto was dropped from the list she said "See. I told you so."
  14. Were you supposed to eat that or did somebody already eat it?
  15. I gerw up with "American Indians" or more often they would tell you the tribe they were from. I have never pretended to be an American Indian nor being related to any tribe (Except Scottish, Irish, Italian, English, Welch, and Swiss), but I AM a native American and can provide evidence back to the first of my people to arrive on these shores near Massanutten, VA just a few short years after the Mayflower landed. I'm not militant about this unless someone gets in my face about it. Then......well ,we'll see.
  16. I've taken to marking Native American. BY DEFINITION: I was born here of American parents and many other forebears for generations. By the same logic I could also claim to be Indigenous, but that might be more of a stretch. It's my personal fight against being "pigeon-holed" by politically motivated a holes who think they are better than I am because they don't like something about me...while knowing nothing about me that has any bearing on the labels they are trying to pin on me. P.O.O.P. People Offended by Offended People (Founded by Boston John Doucette POOP #1, and Forty Rod, POOP #2. Since then everyone is POOP #2).
  17. I had one of those with a 2 1/2" barrel and another with a 4" barrel. I'd like to have them both again, but just can't justify the cost. The short barrel was my carry gun when I first moved to California in 1974 and I didn't sell it unto '98 or '99.
  18. Mine is about 85% finish and I paid a whopping $15.00 for it to a young Marine who needed money for a "date". I bought a 75% Remington Iroqouis .22 short a few weeks later for the same amount and for the same reason. That dumb SOB was carrying it loaded in his car. He luckily never fired it. The cylinder walls are paper thin.
  19. Well that was easy. Amazon has a half dozen brands and lots of variations of flavors and contents.
  20. Made in Stockton, CA, by SureLifeFoods with rolled oats, apricots, raisins, flax seeds, sunflower seeds, honey, coconut. quinoa, chia seeds, and "many more". I don't see any connection to Australia, but the darn things are GOOD for a snack. They were given to me by a friend who is out of contact for two more weeks so I can't ask her where they came from.....and I'm too lazy to seek them out on the web.
  21. I agree. I just ordered it from the library again...probably the 25th time....or maybe more. "Push the button, Max!"
  22. Yeah! I need that like I need mumps.. To each his own, I guess.
  23. Damn fine question. It's an answer to a question that I would never have asked.
