I guess we'll need to start a thread on the best self-defense cane. Diameter, length, type of material, weight, brand, short stroke, holster, etc. Glad the senior citizen stepped in. Old Guys Rule!!!

Have you considered that perhaps your mail accidently went to your neighbor? When I get other people's mail, I figure the same thing happens to mine periodically.

Yul Lose, Is this similar to what you used to do? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f1BgzIZRfT8&sns=em

I like showing the stories about the young adults to my grandkids...well, actually to everyone. Glad they were on the front page. Thanks.

We should let the soldiers on the front line decide what gun and caliber they want. Or, make the guys at the top who make the decisions go on the front line to see how it really works. Added comment: I am not suggesting that every soldier carry a different weapon and caliber of their choosing. I meant that the experienced front line soldiers should be included in the decision making process. If 90% of experienced front line soldiers want a .45 caliber in a Sig, then that is what should be purchased. Decision making from the bottom up usually works better than decision making from the top down. It is the "worker" doing the job that usually has the best idea of what is needed.

We want our troops to have the very best. However, aren't there any American companies that have safe reliable guns? I am not sure if the stories are true, but didn't the US military have caps made in China or some other country? Also, it bothers me to see American flags, the Statue of Liberty, etc made in China that are sold at government owned museums, etc. I wonder where the Clinton and Trump political caps and trinkets were made. (Also posted this on the other thread about this)

Joys of childhood, music, & laughter. Thanks

Ain't technology great. Glad we have Grizz to help us. Such fun to see Mohawk all the way in Aussie land. A real Crocodile Dundee type. Great shooting. What a BP blast!

Awesome, How can one man have so much talent?

The other day while walking at a small airport, I met a man working on his 1946 Aeronca Chief plane. He had a bunch of neat pictures on the wall of old antique planes he had either owned or worked on. He had just retired from working for the Aviation Company for a famous Texas oil billionaire. He said he now makes more being retired than when he was working. They had provided him with two or three different retirement plans. They wanted to give him a retirement gift...not cash or a gift card, but something tangible. He always wanted a Vespa Scooter as a kid, so they bought him a brand new black shiny Vespa that he had ridden to the hangar. Made me feel good that a company had actually treated an employee well.

A number of years ago, the wife and I were eating at El Fenix on Forest Ln in Northwest Dallas. They always had an enchilada special on Wednesdays. Two enchiladas with rice and beans and plenty of chips with hot sauce. We went up to the counter to pay and up comes Charlie Pride, the country singer. I think I said I could now tell people I had dinner with Charlie Pride. He seemed to be a very nice gentleman. After he left, the cashier said he came there all the time and was just a quiet nice regular guy to them.

Lord, please give the doctors skill and wisdom and have the surgery go well with the wanted results. Protect Prairie Dawg from infection. Provide for his financial needs. We thank you and praise your Holy Name. In Jesus' name we pray.

Great job! I like it. Good tune and nice voice. Thanks.

The Texas weather gods and football gods were so mad about the Cowboys losing that we had tornadoes all over the Arlington area near the Cowboys/AT&T Stadium. Thousands were stuck in the stadium for several hours after the game until the storms past. Everyone got their money's worth in that game. I like Green Bay because the people at Oshkosh, Wisconsin are so nice to me when I go there every summer. Sad to see the Cowboys didn't reach their dreams.
