    Selling all my guns...

    Normally I‘d feel the same way, but the shortage of handguns made that market very strong. I doubt I could have done much better in November. Shotguns were in large demand, but AR’s and AK’s weren’t moving. The focus seemed to be something for home protection rather than something that may be...

    Just got banned for a week from Fagbook.

    If I didn’t keep in contact with them organically I probably don’t need them in my life now. I’ve had a few former friends send me Fagbook invites over the years, I sent them an email with my phone number and a note saying I don’t use social media but I’d love to hear from them but I never...

    Just got banned for a week from Fagbook.

    I have a “no posting” policy with respect to my image, I’m very explicit with my friends and family regarding this. My friends police each other with respect to my image being posted on social media, it’s only happened a couple of times to my knowledge but it’s taken down immediately. Both...

    Selling all my guns...

    Not an option for some of us. I’m kid free (yes, it’s as awesome as you think) so nobody to pass stuff down to. My brother in law has two daughters who were raised in CA and hate guns, my brother has a daughter who is 5 and is being raised right but in Washington state near Tacoma so who...

    Just got banned for a week from Fagbook.

    WTF is Facebook? These forums and LinkedIn for work are as far as I go in social media. Never used Fagbook, Twatter, Instagay, etc. I was in college when MySpace went big, then fagbook started to hit when I graduated. I just never saw the point so I never joined. It seemed like my buddy was...

    Selling all my guns...

    You sold guns to a gun store rather than private party? I won’t leave money on the table like that.

    Selling all my guns...

    Cash in while the market is hot and get something you will use or just save the money. I sold about 20 guns since Covid started and bought one new one. I also sold a bunch of red dot optics and accessories. I cashed in on mostly stuff that I had little use for and hadn’t shot in a long time...

    More kung flu hysteria

    My guess is that the person who made the drink places the paper cup in the ceramic cup, but it could just as easily be the cashier touching it. I don’t care either way.

    More kung flu hysteria

    I was back to work last week, traveling 300 miles from home. I'm not without concern, but I'm not going to act like an asshole either. My company mandates that I wear a mask and gloves when on a customer's site, I work in EHS so I can't really be the guy skipping the PPE. Most of my clients...

    More kung flu hysteria

    I have a new primary care doctor that I started with in March 2019 after not seeing a doctor for ~20 years. I’ve only seen the guy once for a physical (which I thought was not comprehensive at all) and a couple times on blood pressure checks (Which they told me were no charge but they collected...

    Poll: Coronavirus Shutdown Impact Survey

    I keep reading about 401K’s getting slammed, but when I checked mine Friday it was off about 5% from February. There was a dip of about 12% 6 weeks ago, but if you aren’t selling you aren’t locking in the losses. I could see how those on a short time horizon might be more concerned about...

    Poll: Coronavirus Shutdown Impact Survey

    My company furloughed 65% of the workforce, our onsite work dropped about 20% but our revenue only dropped about 8%. They refused to go after the PPP money. The remaining staff is being pushed hard to complete all of the available work and is doing an admirable job. I’m hoping they let us...

    Milwaukee vs DeWalt?

    I work consulting in the service and body shops of car dealerships, back with the mechanics at scores of different stores. Milwaukee is the standard that I see professional mechanics (who buy their own tools) using most of the time now, and the high end tool trucks are also selling Milwaukee...

    Bj baldwin defense shooting

    Hopefully I would have done as well, but there’s a greater chance I wouldn’t have been in the situation in the first place. I’m not trying to shame him for anything, just pointing out that risky behavior has a higher chance of negative consequences. I’m very glad he won this round.

    California

    Your stats are valid because of the 39 million person population, if you looked at a % per 100K number compared to other states I doubt it’d be an impressive comparison. Just like how the US has more total covid cases than countries 1/4 our size. I think contempt is a more accurate word than...

    Bj baldwin defense shooting

    Are you a 39 year old desert racer celebrity father driving a super flashy vehicle? Or are you in your 20’s driving a stock f-150 when hanging out at the Taco Bell until 4 am? Not saying he’s in the wrong, but situational awareness and risk avoidance comes into play. From my experience, most...

    Bj baldwin defense shooting

    Good shoot by a good guy, glad he and his girl are safe. But I do have to ask, In-N-Out closes at 1:00 am, WTF was he still doing there at 1:46 am? That in itself seems like poor situational awareness. Returning work emails at that hour? I’m not saying he was up to no good or doing anything...
