Turkeys gobble in thundery weather. I use NOAA and a Little Rock TV weather app.

Gub'ment propaganda. Well written poor excuse for BB to spy on us. It is illegal to do things that harm others. The person/operator is responsible for what the drone does with, or without, it being tracked. The idea of the Government tracking us grabs my gut and sends chills up my spine. I'm...

Having owned many camper trailers over the years, I can attest to the fact that they are notoriously difficult to make repairs on. The trailers are built over the utilities.

Stifling a BB rant. 🤬

Jesse Owens is my #1 all time greatest athlete hero. And, to me, he is #1 for more than his athletic abilities. I have a souvenir book of the 1936 Olympics. The photos are very telling. One of Owens meeting Hitler when Hitler refused to shake hands. Another of Jesse sitting and talking with a...

I wonder how the law/regulation would be enforced if one does not register. :unsure:

Understand. I am rant prone on issues like this. 🤬

My wife (RIP) bought me a no-name electric weed eater several years ago. I was concerned it would not be a good tool and disappoint both of us. Happily, it works great and, like Paul said, none of the issues of starting a gas engine. I recently purchased a small pruner that looks like a mini...

Amazing vision and he does it with simple tools.

Sorry. Strongly disagree. Anytime Big Gub'ment wants to register anything we do it is a 'BIGGIE' in my opinion. We do not need, or welcome government tracking or control of our lives. Stop me before I say what I am really thinking.................

The drone licensing thing reminds me of the days of the CB radio. They were supposed to be registered and licensed. For what purpose I never understood. My theory is if the Gub'ment hires someone to write regulations, that is exactly what they will do. Back in the day when I had my stores in...

Is it worth the bother? Local auction house frequently has piles of ten or twenty used gas trimmers. The whole pile often ends up being sold for only about $10.00. Regardless of brand, methinks they are built for limited use. e.g. 'planned obsolesce'. I have a gas (Stihl) trimmer that hasn't...

I had a good view from my deck. Interesting, but for me, still nothing to get excited over. My son and DIL were returning from a trip to Florida. On their way home to near Springfield, MO they stayed overnight outside of Little Rock and watched the eclipse from there. They next day, heading...

Good pic.

I like people but I don't like neighbors. I support the concept of the old adage 'if you can't take a whiz in your front yard your neighbors are too close'. Some here have seen and stayed at my house. For me, it is almost ideally situated. I am fairly isolated and cannot see my neighbors. Except...

I'm pretty much indifferent about the event. But, I do find it interesting to read about all the excitement it is causing. We are in a prime viewing area and I will probably watch it from my deck. We are also on the edge of predicted cloudy weather. Meaning we won't know if the sky will be clear...

The eye injection is, indeed, a very unpleasant experience. I had a retinal stroke in my left eye. Injections were the treatment. I hated them fiercely. But, I steeled myself with the knowledge that this can (and did) fix the problem. Much better than going blind in that eye. FWIW, they do numb...

As I have long said: There is no such thing as scrap wood.

Would have to look around and count, probably four or five cans of the regular stuff plus a can of their "specialist" spray lubricants and rust preventers. Seldom use it, do not know if it is better/same/worse than the original. Don't keep track of how often I use the regular WD-40. If I need it...

Good for you. Keep the original stock as kids have a way of growing up. I taught my sons shooting with Hopkins & Allen muzzle loading underhammer rifles. The stocks were easily removable and replaceable. I cut them down when the boys were small the put full size back in in later years.
