    Insurance renewal premium shocker today

    After being with Allstate on home & auto in Fla. for over 40 years with minimal claims, was advised last week they could not renew my home insurance due to my house being over 20 years old (it's 21).

    So much for this leading myth

    As a kid, my grandfather had a pint jar half full of mercury. We used to pour a puddle in our palm and play with it. I'm now 83 and still know how to tie my shoes.

    Free Mod 10-5 box to the correct owner

    I have a box in very good condition for a Model 10-5. A small part of the label is missing so I'm not sure if the number is D 7176-96 or D 7176?96. Free to the owner of the gun that matches. You pay postage.

    Is it a HE or Regulation Police?
