Fly an open cockpit biplane like a Stearman or Jenny. -
What was your first album...
Abilene Slim SASS 81783 replied to Father Kit Cool Gun Garth's topic in SASS Wire Saloon
Same here. My first one however was “The Ventures On Stage Around the World”. Still have that too. A bit of trivia: the original drummer for the Ventures went on to become a 4-star general in the AF. Fun video below: -
Rotator cuff surgery
Abilene Slim SASS 81783 replied to Billy Boots, # 20282 LTG-Regulator's topic in SASS Wire
When I had my rotator cuff repaired in ‘97, the doc told me I would reach 80% recovery in six months, and reach 100% six months after that. He was spot on. I wasn’t shooting then, and I’ve no idea what surgery techniques are available now. I do know from personal experience from many orthopedic procedures, that if you try too much too soon, you risk delaying recovery and possibly mucking up the repair. Shoulders are a complex joint with corresponding repairs. At my 72 years of age, 10-12 weeks to return to shooting long guns - especially a shotgun - seems overly ambitious to me. However, your doctor and a good PT can answer your question better than any of us. Good luck! -
Are horses and cows really that flighty - that spooky?

We see that in urban America every day… -
When a person on foot is being chased by a vehicle, the person must run ahead in the middle of the road. Especially when the tree line is 15 feet to the left or right.

Adding on, today’s shows are significantly shorter due to all the commercial interruptions. Actual show length is 15-16 minutes with at least 4 interruptions in a 30-minute slot.

How do I clean up spilled black powder?
Abilene Slim SASS 81783 replied to 9245's topic in SASS Wire Saloon
That would make a great addition to those click-bait ads like, “Put salt in Vaseline and see what happens.” 😁 -

So you’re suggesting he pees on the carpet first? -
Edditers ain’t what they used to be. 😊

Interesting, but I'm skeptical given the original article is from E&E and Politico. It's just too good to be true.

That took me a minute. 😆

Would this cause you to decline?
Abilene Slim SASS 81783 replied to Alpo's topic in SASS Wire Saloon
No. I don’t do surveys because you never know with whom your info is shared and sold. -
Even as a kid, I didn’t care for the “family” shows back then - Beaver, Father Knows Best, et al. Mostly because nothing in my life or my friends’ lives looked anything like that. Might as well have been sci-fi from my POV.
