I've stopped drinking several times, once because I was having issues, a couple times because it got boring. Once, I substituted Cokeacola for the beer, and ended up having a real bad day when I overdid it. Now I avoid soda almost completely.
And the beer is boring again..
Education is expensive. Keep that in mind, and you'll never be terribly upset when a project goes awry.

Thank you Hoss for sharing with us, the family here, about where you are with health and your personal battles. I admire you for been up front and totally honest with us as one has already mentioned, there is absolutely no rules here saying one must own or be building a vehicle to be a valuable member of the family so please drop by anytime and we will have the coffee jug brewing for you.I maybe a little crazy but it stops me going insane.

And todays issues are the transgender militanys????????I've been wacking my brain trying to think of political correct way of discussing the best means to solve the issue-------A---just cut off penis and scotum, leaving a hole to urinate? B---Remove breasts and donate them to women wanting an enhancement??? C---- BRAIN TRANSFER was the winning option----switch brains between opisate type bodies--then they'd have what they wanted with a simple SINGLE stage operation with far fewer chances of infections, difficulties walking, bathing sore parts----------
What do you think????

I think "Mad Dog" has said enough is enough and the limp dicks can whine till the cows come home.
For the life of me I can't remember what the Marine Corps taught us was the maximum effective range is for a 1911, I'm thinking 50 yards or so. I fired one in Okinawa that the barrel was so worn out that I only managed to qualify Marksman. Back in the states I got one that an armorer had just gone through and qualified high Expert, 237 out of 250. As Henry Rifle said I think with my age, 74 next month, I don't think I could duplicate that.
As far as long guns I'm working towards an M1 Garand, I shot expert ,222, with one in boot camp.Ken Thomas

I could never get used to the M14. I have short arms and I couldn't get it to balance properly and whoever devised the hinged butt plate ought to have it up his a**. I was told that the flash suppressor was easily bent, don't know but I hated that rifle. IMHO, the M16 is a mickey mouse piece of s**t with firepower being it's only good quality.Ken Thomas

Good old McNamara, One of the most worthless POS to ever walk this earth. He made the Army accept the m16 and send it to Nam before it was fully tested. IMHO, it's a toss up as to who is more worthless, him or Johnson.Ken Thomas

We may go.out the door for a while ...
But we come back Home to see how things are going, and
projects progression.
I, too, like shooting. Not a marksman by any means.
