    Except for the retarded tats and over-inflated lips, this one could be a bunch of fun! Shame her crazy takes her out of the competition.

    Keystone Pipeline Conspiracy Theories?

    The best pipe mills in the world are Berg in Panama City, FL, Durabond in Steelton, PA, and American in Birmingham Alabama. There are more that are good, but those are the best. This is for pipe that is 12" diameter and larger.

    Keystone Pipeline Conspiracy Theories?

    With that many leaks in that few years of operation of a new line, sounds like they bought shitty pipe. I spent about 15 years as the materials purchasing lead for a major pipeline company. The quality of purchased components is essential to safe operations. We bought domestic parts, with the...

    Leveling a scope is dumb

    It certainly appears that the level on top of the turret is not level, about to the degree that the reticle is off plumb. Whether it matches the level on the rail or not, I can't tell from the photo.

    Leveling a scope is dumb

    Exactly what I use. Attach scope base ( I like the Talley Lightweight system ). Level across base, make the barrel level match. Add scope, level scope to match barrel level. Done.

    Maggie’s Socially UNacceptable Humor

    The Converse fad is one I just can't understand. When I was in school we referred to them as "birth control shoes", because you wouldn't get laid wearing them. They are the most uncomfortable shoes I ever tried to wear. We were all really happy when we had an option.

    Win an RIX Storm S3 Thermal Imaging Scope!

    Kept thinking I would get to the range and take a cool shot. Got busy with work and surgeries for Mom and my wife. Turns out, I guess I don't take many range pics. Here's one of my wife - Rifle is a customized Tikka in a McMillan stock and S&B scope And me with a dead critter - Rifle is...

    Art?

    We do wildlife art, landscape scenes, and taxidermy. More importantly, anything on your walls should be what you like, not what someone says you should like.

    Fuck You Mark Kelly

    Mark Kelly is the same douchebag who said nobody "needs" an AR-15. Then he got filmed buying one, and lied about it.

    Wyoming roadtrip

    If you decide that you want hiking shoes/boots, Danner is running a great sale right now. Prices so good we stashed a couple of pair for later.

    Wyoming roadtrip

    A lot of the high roads may still have snow in June, particularly in the Snowy Range, between Centennial and Encampment. Beautiful country, though.

    Finding a wife

    I guess I got really lucky. I met my wife fall of 1986. We started dating seriously in April, 1987, and were married a year later. It has NOT been all sunshine and roses. That can be blamed on both of us at times, but we were both dedicated to making it work. We celebrated 37 years of...

    Maggie’s Socially UNacceptable Humor

    Credit where credit is due. My buddy says these chicks act like their situation is like The Red Badge of Courage, when they actually should come with a salvage title.
