  1. You all have seen grandson Henry and his service dog, Al, before. Henry is 10 now. It's Spring Break and the boys wore themselves out on a Florida beach today. Youth is wasted on the young!!
  2. Spreading out the holiday; serving corned beef to our son and daughter-in-law tonight. To good a holiday to be limited to 24 hours!
  3. The Night Pat Murphy Died https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q7Bsb-8pxG8&pp=ygUMcGFkZHkgbXVycGh5
  4. Get a gift certificate to the sporting goods store; let him pick out what he wants.
  5. This is a link to the "interactive radar" from our local channel 3 tv station. On my iPhone I can zoom in to street level or out to a national view (use two fingers or thumb and forefinger to pinch the view up or down). You can also shift the view to other countries, although not all of them show radar. And if you click the button it reviews the weather movement for the last 6 hours. It's great fun to play with! https://www.ky3.com/weather/radar/
  6. Our daughter and her family in Arkansas live in the 100% path, but we will not be there. Arkansas estimates 1.5 million visitors for the event, a 50% increase above the normal state population of 3 million. Traffic on those snaky Ozarks highways is bad enough normally. I imagine the eclipse traffic in those hills will be frustrating, perhaps dangerous. I will be content with viewing a partial eclipse at home, while relaxing in the safety of my recliner. Good luck to those of you who choose to travel that day.
  7. Thanks! We pass by Cabool on our way to visit family in the Bootheel. Looks like a great place to stretch our legs.
  8. Clocks? I'm retired. What are these clocks of which you speak?
  9. Probably started as an "immigrant" campfire; hence lack of media attention.
  10. Do your bullets need sizing? I'm lucky; the bullets I cast drop 1/1000" bigger than bore diameter, perfect. I have never used a sizer. I put Alox on smokeless loads and beeswax/crisco on blackpowder loads. All to say, before you size, make sure you need to expend the effort.
  11. Yep, got one of those. Only thing that works on my serrated blades. Good for a quick touchup on others when I don't have time to break out my whetstones.
  12. Thanks for all the comments. I appreciate your experiences.
  13. I know there are good chefs here. My granddaughter is getting married. I'm in charge of kitchen knives, hence the question. Thanks.
  14. Hard to swim in it without swallowing a bit; I'd rather not.
  15. Panama Canal water must have been cleaner back then. 1928 was in the pre-antibiotic era. I hesitate to guess what things are in that water these days.
  16. And some folks think an N frame is too heavy to carry!
  17. Pretty basic science: observe something that does not fit with current understanding; try to explain it. Such experiments are not absurd. If anomalies were not explored and explained we would still be living in caves. I hope they get an answer before I cash in my chips. More interesting than hot air out of Washington.
  18. I trapped a mole in my backyard last week. Does that count?
