  1. IMHO the majority aren’t lazy. I religiously balance by check book every month since 1970. I did progress a bit when I converted my check book to computer plus it was cheaper () to print my own checks instead of buying them. Times have changed and my ancient computer would no longer work with TurboTax, time for a new computer. Check registry program was almost as old as dirt and wasn’t compatible with the new computer. I asked the daughter what did she use. She doesn’t have a checkbook!!! She uses credit card for ALL purchases, CC rewards pays for the majority of their air flights and one monthly electronic payment pays off the CC. Our congregation is younger ( yes I’m one of the old ones) and they don’t have cash or a check book. Offerings went up when the Church enabled tithing by CC. I’ve come to the conclusion that no matter how hard us old timers fight it, things change and usually for the better. We better adapt too or our time served in the nursing home will be really hard. A smart phone, a card reader and service from one of the online providers is all that is needed to take CC at the range. That will remove one obstacle to prevent the continuing decline of participation at SASS matches. Hmmm…perhaps SASS would be willing to be the CC middleman? Extra revenue for SASS and grow for the local clubs.
  2. Ollie North was “President” and was waylaid by the NRA swamp people.
  3. I believe the odds of NRA granting you an audience is almost as good as Congress granting you one.
  4. To many folks can’t discipline themselves from over spending their credit cards. Why would spending a minor’s earnings be any different?
  5. I’d suspect Forty is just like a vintage bottle of wine, getting more expensive with age. Happy Birthday!
  6. From the OP: "...ride with the 17 year old girl. ...she wrecked..."
  7. Stupid should hurt, makes for a better "Don't do that again" life lesson.
  8. Me thinks perhaps the Judge that granted the search warrant should have been sued too.
  9. Hotel is being strung up without telling their side of the story. Could be the hotel attendant is scared of firearms and tells guests "no" without it being the hotel's policy. You'll should have seen a hotel attendant when I asked if they offer a NRA discount
  10. Brass my Ruger SFAR does not like to feed or eject.
  11. Better then leaving them in a vehicle?
  12. Me too. I never thought to ask () if a motel disallowed certain items.
  13. That’s comforting to know. So far I’m had four “non-green” primers out of 700. Two I used and then started to wonder if those two would come back to bite me at an inopportune time.
  14. First time use of Fiocchi primers. What is the green and should I be concerned about the one primer with very little green?
  15. Hope USPS didn’t lose my application and payment.
  16. Then we need another rule change so I can use my 12 pound cannon legally.
  17. I have a childhood friend whose legs are paralyzed from polio. Education opportunities for a wheel bound woman 60 years ago weren’t what they are today. Her employment as a Telemarketer allows her to work from her apartment and avoid, to a degree, public handicap assess ability difficulties.
  18. iPhone > Settings > Phone > Silence Unknown Callers > ON ALL callers not in your iPhone Contacts will go straight to your voice mail.
  19. What after market modification or accessory on your reloading press that you found not needed or worth the cost?
  20. Took the USPS stage awhile to deliver the parts. I said parts because Dillion added a Indexer Return Spring. This morning I finally got around to fix Old Faithful. Skinned thought the YouTube Larson E Pettifogger provided, hind-site I should have not skimmed. I forgot about removing the Indexer Return Spring and Pawl Spring. I learned about my mistake when reassembling. Found the Indexer Return Spring stuck to a magnet on the workbench. Didn’t need it because I used new one Dillion provided. The Pawl Spring was a different matter. Did it launch when the Indexer broke or this morning during disassembly? Odds are I’ve already stepped on it, smashed flat and bent into a pretzel. I’ll have to wait another week for that part…what’s that laying over there under the chair? Bingo! Found it and it’s in mint condition. I’m back in business.
