Re: Geeking out

I've bitched as much as anyone about technology, but some aspects of it are so handy, I'd hate to do without.

Re: Winchester Model 12

Some years back I bought a Winchester 1200 12 gauge that has been modified for card, or block shooting. It came with an extra slug barrel that somebody had stripped of all coatings. It was bare metal and already starting to rust. I went to a local gun shop looking for a cheap, easy home bluing kit o...

Re: Still alive

Hey Gene, it has been awhile. Hope everything is OK in your part of the world.

Inflation is hard on everybody, but it hits those on a fixed income especially hard.

Re: Why is fruitcake so maligned?

Am I the only fruitcake lover here? No, you are not the only one. My Mother made a fruitcake when we were kids that we loved. She wrapped it in a rum soaked towel. One of my sisters still makes them and sends each of us one every Christmas, minus the rum soaked towel. It is similar, but different t...

Re: My latest experience

Pay no attention. Just experimenting with attaching pictures directly from my PC. I've never done it before. Wanted to see if I could do it. The trick is to get them small enough. 256k isn't a lot when it comes to pictures. Jim, I'm Sorry that I screwed up your thread. 1C4EA32C-DA93-4E61-9AF0-8370CF...

Mothers are special people and her influence will be with you the rest of your life. I'll second the support for Hospice care. I know it made a difference with b...

Deleting it was the proper move.
