    Accident

    Even without recent snow sometimes will freeze over. In early 2002 we were taking that stretch between I 29 Iowa (NE2) to go over to Lincoln and connect with I 80. Great road but in some off the valleys patches of white ice like your freezer. Trucks would wind it up to 75 mph speed limit and...

    What does your screen name mean?

    Mainly played at it LOL Wanted to be a QB, could throw a 75 spiral with reasonable accuracy but was forced to the defensive line and lost interest. A guy around the corner from me (Jack Snow) was an all American from Norte Dame and he played a lot of years in the NFL but at the time I lacked...

    Self Protection

    I guess I was just searching for some legal weapon as a means of last resort and wondering if a pellet gun was legal. I thought they would be about the same as a BB gun since some go both ways: BB/Pellet gun. I just don't want to get busted for an illegal weapon. I realize that a pellet gun can...

    Self Protection

    The reason I suggested a gas charged pellet gun because I thought it would never kill anyone but put a real hurting on them and possibly legal everywhere.

    Self Protection

    Was wondering if anyone carries one of those gas charged pellet guns with clips? Are they legal everywhere? It seems to me it could be used as a weapon of last resort if someone is determined to enter your vehicle.:confused::):cool:

    CRAFTSMAN Hand tools are now China junk.

    I went into a Sears store in Hawaii in the mid 80's and told them my torque wrench was out of tolerance they seemed to balk on that until I told them that I had the Fleet Mechanical Calibration Lab that worked for me and they verified out of tolerance. They replaced it with the one I still have...

    ABC Stores

    Thinking of starting a retail chain "ABC: Anybody But China" LOL. I usually look hard at the labels hoping for anything not from China. About 33% of New Balance is USA made and I am fine with Taiwan or some friendly countries if USA is not available. Just spent almost $70 apiece for ball joints...

    CRAFTSMAN Hand tools are now China junk.

    Hard to find some things not made in China; however, I look for the label.

    Obama offers Bush Relief

    You are right! I totally forgot about Rush Limbaugh. It's a sad day to hear the most powerful man wine about there are still some that don't swoon over him. It is not his fault that he was never responsible for running anything and now people expect him to produce. :)

    Obama offers Bush Relief

    Sunday saw that George Bush is no longer responsible for all Obama failures not it's Fox News according to the President. Does this Man accept any responsibility? I was in the Military for 23 years and the person who always blamed others almost never advanced beyond the lower ranks. Perhaps it...

    Democrats, Job Killers

    If Harry Truman were alive he would not be welcome in todays Democrat Party! They'd probably boot JFK and Hubert Humphrey. Almost 50% of jobs created during Obama's tenure have gone to Texas. ;)

    T-Mobile

    Interesting web site but my phone is not a smart phone and is a Casio 3G. At Mayport Base it is interesting that the stadium used to be called Alltel Stadium and even when I had Alltel reception was bad at Mayport, less than 20 miles away and Verizon has not improved on that coverage. I am...

    T-Mobile

    What are all your opinions about T-Mobile? I am in Fountain Inn SC and when I am at Naval Base Mayport Florida and Verizon lets me down frequently in both places. My wife has a TracFone and I believe it's on the AT&T network and it works better than Verizon but still nothing to shout about. I...
