  1. I saw the first 3 or 4 episodes. I can’t stand the “Woo Girl” Texan wife & daughter but the rest of the show is okay. My wife and I plan to watch the rest soon.
  2. Check out West Virginia and areas near the Monongahela Nat’l Forest.
  3. Oops! I forgot something. I do recall that a couple of times when the timer went off I drew my right side revolver, aimed, squeezed the trigger and nothing. I didn’t cock the hammer. I was able to start over since I didn’t actually fire the gun, but I had to mentally check myself on that boo-boo and keep telling myself “cock the gun, cock the gun” before each stage for a little while.
  4. Mmmmmm…I need Trefoils. Their new lemon iced cookies are really good. They’re called “Lemon Ups”. I need some of those too. For vanilla ice cream: take 3 or 4 and cut them up in pieces then nuke them for 10-15 seconds then scrape the bits off the plate onto your ice cream. Really tasty!
  5. I used to shoot IDPA while shooting SASS. The problem (not really a problem) was I would go Cowboy Duelist when shooting IDPA. Seriously though, I never really had a problem between the two.
  6. I always wondered if electric roof heaters would work on a semi trailer.
  7. Nice truck Alpo. I miss having my old truck. Simple to work on and reliable. Wait till the little moisture dots connect and you get… This was the other day…there’s more now.
  8. Yeah, getting the snow off our Suburban roof is kind of a hassle and it’s not lifted. It’s just a high roof. I need to use a push broom and good footing. I about fell on my arse the other day. Snow on the roof after a “wet” snow can be bad if it comes off and hits someone. Powder is no biggie until the roof heats and causes ice under the snow. Then it becomes a use sheet coming off the roof. There’s an automated car wash near us that is open every day. That’s a good way to get roof snow and ice off.
  9. I looked up “Bergen op Zoom” (top of left sign) thinking it was going to be a cool road for zooming or something. It’s a town in the Netherlands. The name loosely means “hills on the edge/border”.
  10. I had an issue with Vertigo that would come and go for a few months back in 2010. The worst it hit me was when we were sitting in a bank going over home loan paperwork and I literally fell out of my chair and could not get up. I felt like I had been drugged. It was an inner ear issue and the doctor was pretty sure my Eustachian Tude for my left ear was clogged. He prescribed a strong decongestant. When I went to the pharmacy I also purchased motion sickness medication containing Meclizine. This stuff works great for me if I have a concussion. You can buy Meclizine tablets in 12.5 & 25mg tablets. CVS brands has a good one that is in their shelves. https://www.cvs.com/shop/cvs-motion-sickness-less-drowsy-meclizine-hydrochloride-25mg-tablets-16-ct-prodid-651981 Walmart carries Rugby brand Meclizine. Which is funny and not funny at the same time. Heck, they even sell it in a 5 pack. https://www.walmart.com/ip/Rugby-Meclizine-12-5mg-Antiemetic-Caplets-For-Motion-Sickness-100-Count-Pack-of-5/956054617?adid=22222222225467709489&wmlspartner=wmtlabs&wl0=b&wl1=o&wl2=m&wl3=72911826826055&wl4=dat-2324711179808355:loc-190&wl5=93215&wl6=&wl7=&wl14=otc motion sickness med containing meclizine&veh=sem&msclkid=09e2447faa1118b199b923fc68513686 Brand name Bonine contains Meclizine and can be found in many stores. It’s funny, in one of my Vertigo episodes that year I was in a pharmacy trying to read the fine print on the motion sickness meds and had an episode. I literally sat in the aisle for 10 minutes waiting for the dizziness to subside. Just as it was going away and I was getting up the pharmacy staff noticed me and rushed to my rescue.
  11. I see. I can understand that concern. Thanks! They don’t have code enforcement people to verify proper drainage is installed for this type of things in the city limits? On the property owner’s side, heating that driveway electrically must cost a nice chunk of change. ———————————————- I just learned of this recently when my wife brought it up as I was sweeping off the Chevy Suburban. I left the snow on the roof that was between the roof racks and we were headed to Pennsylvania for some family errand. Where Is It Illegal To Drive With Snow And Ice On Your Car? It is mandated by law to clear ice and snow from a vehicle before driving it in the following states: Alaska Connecticut Georgia Massachusetts Michigan New Hampshire New Jersey Pennsylvania Rhode Island Tennessee Wisconsin In these states, a fine or even a misdemeanor can result whether or not a driver causes harm to another driver. ————————————- I can understand the logic in this after seeing people slow down and a sheet of snow slides forward covering their windshield. Once while riding my motorcycle on a cold day a chunk of roof snow & ice came off an SUV and had I not been paying attention it would have clobbered me. I lived in Oregon at the time.
  12. It’s been my experience that the Silent Generation isn’t. Deja vu…
