    SO WHAT'S YOUR WIFES SUPER POWER?

    I had always taken for granted her kindness and willingness to go the extra mile for people. Thought that was her greatest asset. Well, I was wrong. When our 23 year old son was dying of cancer, she was the glue that held us together. My four daughters and I were quietly, surely going deep into...

    Had to put Max down today...

    Max You have our sympathies. Very painful time. If you are a pet/companion person, it's one of the hardest things we are called upon to do. Best Wishes.

    Great Surprise from oldest daughter

    We always have our family xmas at our house a week early so we can get all the daughters and husbands and grandkids for a shindig without messing up their family xmas. It, as always was great fun. At the end before everyone was leaving my daughters were acting kind of hinkey, so I knew something...

    Where were you when you heard?

    7th grade, Oley Jr. High School. We started noticing teachers crying and really didn't know what was going on. Finally they got us all into classrooms and told us. They turned on the radio and we listened to the news for the rest of the day. It was a sad day.

    Degreasing frame question

    I didn't put this in the gunsmithing thread because the gun in question is not a S&W. That being said, my question is, will it damage a non steel frame if I use brake cleaner to degrease it before refinishing? Thank you for any advice.

    Tough day yesterday

    My Lord, that is awful! She is beautiful, and it's good to hear she will recover. You have our best wishes for her and all concerned. My wife and daughter tell me sometimes that they think if it wasn't for grandbabys and dogs, I wouldn't be fit to be around. They're joking. I think....

    Ammo flippers are soon to be SOL

    My WM still has zilch. I did however just order some premium 223 from Midway. I think it was $18.00 box of twenty. Got 5 boxes. Also, got my twice yearly stock up on 7.65X53 for my two old reliable 1891 Argentine Mausers. I never get tired of them. Oh, and CTD can bite me.

    For you aging rock'n'rollers ...

    Enjoy this post. Mick rocked it pretty good recently in Vegas. I thought it was pretty cool that he picked a local high school choir to do the background on "You Can't Always get what you want" or whatever the name of that song is. I'm listening to a mix I made with Pink Floyd, Moody Blues, Eric...
