    Coronavirus Delta Variant

    Do you remember the early days of the clown show when Biden said Trump didn't order enough vaccine and ordered something like another 100 million doses? This stuff has a shelf life.Pfizer is now seeking approval for a third dose. Could it be that the system ramped up to too much vaccine?

    Rifle Scopes What's the best power rating I need for 1000 yd distance accuracy?

    Take a look at SSP Optics. They make all kinds of combinations and you can get glasses with the bifocal lens on top. 2guys I shoot with have the lens on top in the right eye and in the bottom on the left.

    Anyone regret lasik?

    I had PRK 13 years ago. Prior to surgery, I wore glasses for astigmatism and also used reading glasses. The Doc told me I'd still need reading glasses. After surgery, I didn't need any glasses until about a year ago, when I started needing reading glasses. My distant vision is still 20/20. No...

    Washington Square was a very dangerous place before Giuliani, and now it's dangerous again. How stupid can people be?

    Appliance recommendations

    Our Bosch dishwasher (2015) has a problem with the bottom shelf coming off the tracks. Bosch told me it is because I don't know how to work it. Some aftermarket wheels improved it a lot. I understand that other brands have the same problem. Beside that, I like the stainless steel tub and it...

    Maggie’s Weed Eater Recommendation

    My experience exactly! They are Houdinies. The only way to keep them inside a fence is to make them want to be there. I have no idea how they get out, and they won't do it while you're watching. I've penned them into a smaller area and checked every inch of fenceline (with hot wire wires on the...

    Anyone here from Columbia/Charleston SC?

    It's been a while, but Summerville, SC is the best place I've ever lived. I was by myself when I lived there and don't know much about their school system, but taught high school students and teachers in nearby (and more rural) Goose Creek to scuba dive and was impressed with the quality of the...

    Physical Fitness Apparently I am an addict

    If I bought my GF a Norditrack for her birthday, I'd be sleeping on the couch for a month.

    I traveled to the Netherlands several times in the course of my work, and watched a soccer game with my Dutch colleagues. A Netherlands team was playing in Germany. The TV camera focused on a handmade sign being held up by someone in the crowd, and my Dutch friends laughed hysterically. I had to...

    Compact Tractor Recommendations

    We have 12 acres to take care of and I really liked the Kubotas but they were out of my price range at the time. I bought a 1964 Massey Ferguson 135 with a locally made aftermarket front loader, and it is the most reliable machine I've ever owned. Parts are easy to get locally (I am in working...

    Very cool. Genl Longstreet is Ms Stadium's great great uncle (I think I have that right, but maybe one more great). We recently went to Gettysburg and took pictures of the kids at his statue.

    Biden unveils new Infrastructure policy team !!!

    The last idiot who came up with this bright idea found that the "Infrastucture Team" was hamstrung by a couple of dozen of his own other agencies. If he starts now, there will be maybe a couple of "shovel ready" projects in 8-12 years.

    Problems with vaccine , oh say it aint so !

    I had my second dose of Moderna last week, and it kicked my ass for a day and a half, starting the day after the shot. The first dose was no problem. Many many years ago, when I was dealing with some minor trouble, a Navy CPO told me that every decision I would make later in life would revolve...

    Maggie’s The Past is Present

    We recently went to Gettysburg to show the kids and take pictures of them at a statue of a prominent Confederate general who is a close ancestor of Ms Stadium. It was cool, but we had more fun driving around the site in a little 3 wheeled buggy.
