  1. While I don't necessarily want to deal with people, I'd rather that then depend on a computer. Besides, sometimes it's interesting. The last few years, I found that more people than not had similar political viewpoints to mine.
  2. Butter and syrup, just like a pancake or waffle.
  3. But for some unfathomable reason, they keep letting her go. If they'd actually toss her in jail for a week or two and treat her like any other inmate, that smile would disappear.
  4. If it works for you then that's all that counts. I was just adding to the conversation.
  5. I think that if it had grips like this it would be okay. This is one of my Taurus 85s, and these grips are fine. And they're smaller that those Colt Grips.
  6. I don't know how happy you are with your internet provider, but I have Google Chrome. With Chrome, you can log onto it from any computer. When you do, it will be your homepage with your email, favorites, etc. I'm currently on my desktop Windows 10 confuser, but if I log onto my Windows 8 laptop, it's exactly the same. I know some people don't like Chrome, but I'm fine with it. I figure that my info is already out there, so Chrome isn't telling anybody anything that they don't already know. And if you add AdBlock and Adblock Plus, you don't get any ads, even on youtube.
  7. Her statement was purely her own. From CBS News: "The advertisements from Christy Walton are in no way connected to or endorsed by Walmart. She does not serve on the board or play any role in decision-making at Walmart," the company said in a statement to CBS MoneyWatch.

  8. As you may know from previous threads, I have no interest in ANY sports. Some years back, the place I worked got in a stock of hardhats with various sports team logos on them. The guys were all grabbing one with "their" team on it. I, of course, was not participating. They all knew how I think about sports, so naturally they started asking me which team's hardhat I was going to get. I walked over to the display, and picked one "This is my team" I told them:
  9. Well, my Step Daughter, (since she was 5, she's 35 now), calls me C.J., but refers to me as her Dad.
  10. Okay, now that's just wrong. A pistol like that deserves a LEATHER holster!
  11. You've obviously never been to Columbus Ohio or Tucson Arizona. In Ohio, they love the buckeyes SO much that if you don't, and they know it, you're treated like you are mentally ill. Some years ago, my wife, daughter, and I went to dinner with my ex-sister and her family at a local restaurant. EVERY table in the place had somebody wearing OSU apparel. Including my brother in law. If you're looking for souvenirs in Ohio, you will have a VERY hard time finding anything that isn't OSU related. When I was growing up there in, the 1960s, the football coach was Woody Hayes. He was so revered that anybody running for ANY office in the area, as far ahead as the 1980s would automatically get elected if he could say that he played football for Woody Hayes. When I was getting married the first time, it was on the day of a game. My family was all gathered at the church, all ready for us. But the preacher was nowhere to be found. Finally my Best Man and I went looking. We found him in his office, watching the game. He FORGOT that he was supposed to be Marrying us. As for Tucson, attitudes are very similar over the U of A Wildcats. When I was actively shooting Cowboy matches, I've seen people leaving the match early because there was a football game coming on. When the wildcats went to the Rose Bowl, in about 95 if my rememberer is right, they got their picture on the cover of Sports Illustrated, there were PILES of the magazine EVERYWHERE. When I was checking out at Walmart, the cashier was absolutely flabbergasted that I didn't want one. She just kept saying, "But it's the Wildcats!"
  12. EASY there Rye, nobody's saying that you can't do so if you want to. If that's your preference, go for it. As for me, I've got more time than money, I'll wait in the cashier line. Like I said, I don't work there. Now if they offered a discount for using the self checkout, like they do for gas, I'd be all over it. Not denying it.🦖
  13. I'm the same way. If asked, I tell them that the cashiers that they DO have are getting paid to run the register. I'm not, so I won't. I've found that if you ask, someone will run the self checkout for you. If they ever say that they can'/ won't, I'll tell them they've got two choices: Either they can find someone to check me out, or they can find someone to put the stuff in my cart back on the shelves.
  14. I don't have otto. Completely my fault. BRAIN FART!!
  15. You got me. I guess that my finger got ahead of my mind. The fact that I type with one finger should tell you something about my speed of thought.
  16. Sometimes I think that we need a thread of Alpoesque questions. Certainly if he just asked his questions there it would cause the Saloon to have a few less pages. We could all ask things there. I think that next time I have a question for the Saloon, I might start such a thread.
  17. I've lived in Arizona for 35 years. I've had a few encounters with LEOs, including a number at the Douglas Az. DOT scalehouse. With one or two exceptions they've all been positive. The one or two were Tucson Cops, (From Somewhere Else I think), who were nervous about my guns. They were still polite and professional.
  18. Heck I get in trouble for the things I DO say!
  19. Better, tell your Millennial Grandkid to navigate ANYWHERE on a paper map. A few years ago when I was planning my first Arizona to Ohio road trip, I went down to the Truckstop and picked up an Atlas. When I showed the guys at work, they were astonished. Even the other truck drivers. Same thing when I pulled out a collection of CDs the I keep in the Jeep.
  20. Tires, no matter where they're sold OR made, (China, Korera, etc.), must meet US DOT standards. Walmart can sell name brand tires simply because they can buy 200,000 tire at a time where Bob's tire shop might get a couple hundred at a time. The same way that they can sell Wrangler Jeans for less than Bubba's Cowboy Palace. Walmart is buying 50,000 of each size at a time where Bubba is only buying a dozen at a time.
  21. Dapper Dave, I don't know how far out of Tucson you are, but I frequent the Walmart at Foothills Mall, and it's a pretty decent place. You might give them a try unless it's just further than it's worth for you to travel.
