I just looked and except for a name, everything on mine is empty.

Google Maps and reviews
By default, any reviews you’ve left on Google — even just to give a restaurant five stars — are public and attached to your profile. When someone clicks on any of your reviews, they’ll be able to see all the other ones you’ve left. That’s basically a public record of where you’ve been (and when you hated the curry). No bueno.
Here’s how to turn off this sharing:
- Open the Google Maps app.
- Click your profile picture in the top right.
- Scroll to Settings and click Personal content.
- Under Profile Settings, slide the toggle off next to Show your posts on your profile.
I'm guessing, since it mentions an APP, that this is for a smartphone. I don't have one, but thanks for thinking of us.

As long as there is a Jewish religion and a Muslim religion, there will be conflict.
Just like as long as there Democrats and Republicans there will be conflict.
For the most part, Republicans and Democrats have differing opinions on how things should be run. Their conflicts don't start by seeking the death of everybody that disagrees with them. The Muslims do.

Yesterday I'm going to the grocery store. The road is under construction, and is 35 mph.
Two cars behind me is either a black or an extremely dark blue SUV with a white roof. Looked like a cop car to me. And I made real certain that I was doing 35.
Then we get to the end of the construction and the one lane of traffic becomes three lanes and the speed limit goes up to 45. And the guy behind me passes me like I'm standing still and then here comes that SUV. Also passes me like I'm standing still and waves the Hawaiian peace sign at me.
And I'm sitting there thinking, "Friend, if you wish to drive in excess of the posted speed limit, I suggest that next time you buy a new car do not get one that is painted like a cop car. If you look like a black and white, people in front of you are not going to speed".
Several years ago, I had the "pleasure" of being pulled over for a Commercial Vehicle Roadside Check by an Arizona DOT Officer in a pickup truck. A plain white pickup truck. With a plain white shell on the bed. AND A LADDER RACK ON TOP!!
After that I was always able to spot him, but I'd never seen anything like that before.

That assumes that the Palestinians will accept a two state solution.
My money says it’ll be a cold day in hades before that happens.
Quite correct. When one side STARTS the negotiations with "We want all the Jews dead", there will never be lasting peace.

Since I'm not a very original thinker, I stole the name "The Grumpy Lunch Bunch" from Forty Rod, and everybody likes it. When we go, we can get "lively", but nobody seems to mind and we get a lot of laughs from the crowd

Drop on in if you're in the area. We'll be at the back of the place on the right hand side. You'll enjoy yourself and meet some of the most outlandish people you ever saw.
Hey Forty, I hope you don't mind that I stole the name, but it fits us. Mostly older guys, we work out at the gym, go shooting, and talk a lot of politics.
If I ever happen to get to Prescott I'll be sure to check you guys out.

Not that I bought them often, but I've written the makers of gumnt bears about how obnoxious the commercials with shrill kids voices dubbed to adults are.
That's for darn sure! I can't mute them fast enough.

Now you've got me started: There are way too many commercials on T.V. these days almost every 5-7 minutes there are commercials that run for 4-5 minutes before getting back to the regular program. Nothing I see makes me want to go out and purchase whatever it is they are trying to sell. All they do is annoy the crap out of me. If we can, Barb and I will record a program or movie just so we can fast forward through all the commercials sometimes shortening the viewing time by 3o minutes on a two-hour movie.
I'm a borderline Luddite. I don't have, comparatively speaking, a lot of tech. My cell phone, (which I don't use much), is a flip phone. The confuser I'm on now is a Windows 10. Our newest vehicle is a 2006, and they have a CD player in them. However, I absolutely LOVE my DVR. We rarely watch any new shows live. We let them record, then watch them on the DVR so we can blow through the commercials.

Anti-sematism has been going on in one form or another for thousands of years. It will only cease when people stop hating other people who believe differently from themselves, and stop teaching their children to hate those who are different.
This is the part I will never understand. WHY can't people of different beliefs get along? I don't care what anybody else believes in, just as long as they don't try to ram it down my throat.
All Israel asks is to be left alone and allowed to live in peace with their neighbors and let their discoveries and services benefit all of humankind.
That's what they've always done. And every time, some Muslim group or another has attacked them for no reason EXCEPT that they are Jewish. And for some OTHER unknown reason, the rest of the world seems to hold ISRAEL to blame. I wouldn't blame Israel in the least if they WERE to initiate a nuclear strike. I hope that they don't, because if they do, knowing the rest of the dog eating tin pot dictators of the world, they'll want to go full tilt WW3. NOBODY can afford for that to happen.

In CA... for certain.
I don't want any grief with the cops at any time.
Been there, done that, don't want more.
I always transport in a locked container under a shipping blanket in the rear jump seat of my truck.I'll be damned if I'm going to put it in the truck bed.
I'm prepared to not allow a voluntary search of my truck.
He can get his supervisor approval, or whatever is needed, then go for it.About 10 years ago I was pulled over for blowing a Yellow light.
When the Cop walked up he asked me something like,"You have any guns, knives, rocket launchers or anything?"
I said, "Yes. I've got a .45 here on my right hip."
He looked at me for a half second and said, "Just don't shoot me and we'll be fine."
I didn't get a ticket.

If History is any indicator, it'll go on until Israel beats their opposition into submission and they quit. Whether from attrition of fighters, money, or simply because Israel is taking too much of their territory.
Israel will accept the surrender and go back to leaving everybody else alone. Then sooner or later some other Muslim group will attack out of the blue and start it all over again.

I knew this one guy that decided to shoot his own turkey for Thanksgiving one year. He REALLY scared everybody else in the Walmart.

I've relatively recently started having a social life. My wife and just don't have friends. we have people that we know, but no real friends. I used to have my friend of 50 years back in Ohio, but lost him about 3 years ago.
But since retiring, I've started going to the gym, and there HAVE made friends.
I initially started with a trainer, since I hadn't worked out in 30 years, but later started working out with a guy I met there.
Now he's been going for years, so he knows just about everybody in the place. But for some reason, he and I started hanging out together. So a while back, he asked if I wanted to get together for lunch. So he, another guy and I went to a small place that I take my wife to and had at it. The next month, we did it again, And so on. It's very informal, one of us will just say "Hey, lunch Friday?" And we're off. We've taken to asking more and more guys to go, and last time we had 8.
Since I'm not a very original thinker, I stole the name "The Grumpy Lunch Bunch" from Forty Rod, and everybody likes it. When we go, we can get "lively", but nobody seems to mind and we get a lot of laughs from the crowd. My wife has her things, and I have this. Keep to it.

Correct.

You will not find anyone cheaper or better than Scarlett !🤠
Not to disparage her, but unless I'm looking wrong, she wants $425 for 500 .38 rounds, $469 for .45 Colt, and $429 for .45ACP.
That comes to $42.50 for a box of .38s. I can get 500 rounds from Miwall for $180 shipped. It's even less than $400 for 500 .45 Colt.
I understand that hers are "Cowboy" loads, but I'm just looking for something to poke holes in paper with.
If I'm looking at the wrong place, please show me.

There was a Fedex driver here that seemed to never be able to figure out that my house with the six inch high numbers on it was my address. He kept delivering my stuff next door to the house with no numbers.
Since some of these deliveries were from Amazon, I was able to complain through them. I was not polite about it. Lo and behold, I received an email from Fedex apologising for the problem, WITH contact info for the manager, and it hasn't happened since.

For a 'Western' thread, we'd need some rules.
For example, 'No Country for Old Men' and 'Hell and High Water' are not Westerns.
Neither is "Brokeback Mountain".
I'd say anything set any later than the 1930s, (that way many Roy Rogers and Gene Autry movies qualify) don't count. Neither do things like "Yellowstone", "Longmire", or "Justified".

I know that this might be better suited on the main Wire, but since I spend more time here, I'm asking here.
I don't reload, and I'm probably not going to. BUT, I have been saving brass for years because there used to be a place in town I could have it reloaded for a decent price. I recently contacted them about doing so, and their cost was as much to reload MY brass than the cost of buying from several online places including shipping.
My question is this: Is there someplace that WILL reload or trade my brass that will significantly save me money?

Tom Selleck tries for a lot of authenticity in his westerns. Saddles, firearms, etc. But he admitted that the one area they were more lax in was with the hats.
To be fair, from what I've read, most cowboys wore either Bowlers or "Boss of the Plains" hats, neither of which have much style, and would bore the audience.
When Costner did "Wyatt Earp", it seemed like everybody was wearing brown. BORING.
