Still Looking For A Safe Pete, I am still a hard-core Liberty customer! When it comes to selecting and buying a safe, it’s similar to a home. If you don’t make the best choice, you’ll suffer and live with “buyer’s remorse” every day of the year. It would be a stretch to compare it to a...

Cajun, I didn't win the "Power Ball Jackpot", but maybe I'll win this time. Please add my name to the list. Bill

Has it been checked for: 1. Bad gas (fuel)? 2. Contaminated fuel? 3. Clogged or debris in the fuel line? 4. Clogged fuel filter? Water in the fuel will also cause these issues. Bill

I agree 100% with the OP! No donation is too small, or too large. ALL donations gratefully accepted! Cheers! Bil

Painting rusting pickup truck step rails As I understand it, rust is metal oxidation. Painting over it, without cleaning the rust, doesn’t stop the oxidation. In the past I first cleaned the rust with a steel wire brush. Then I used Naval Jelly painted on the rust with a paint brush. Water will...

Firearms Historian Robert, There are some excellent recommendations in these posts. I may be wrong but I would also think that your methodology and methods would be important. What works best, and what doesn’t work as well. Thinking along those lines, I think that someone in the S and W...

For those who can speak and understand "Southern": 1. Bill Engvall, and (drum roll please) 2. Jeff Foxworthy Bill

I've re-read these posts several times and believe that I missed an important point. Kudos go to Mrs. Faulkner and Fran! Fran called Mrs. Faulkner when she had not heard from her husband within a reasonable time. Kudo #1. Mrs. Faulkner spoke with Fran and immediately understood that there...

Jim Cirillo Karma Chip, I'd like to add my name to the list of possible winners. Thanks! Bill

Yes, K-13 is an Army Base in Korea. I checked and it's also called "Suwon Air Base" The person in the picture, who I do not know, appears to be an aircrewman with that pistol and bandolier. I can't determine if it's still actively utilized. Bill

Kudos to both Daisy and Faulkner! It brings back a lot of memories from my days in South Georgia, and the great farmers who live and work there every day. Farm work is extremely dangerous, especially when large animals and heavy farm equipment are involved. As I understand it, the center of...

True story. Several years ago we were in NOLA walking down Bourbon Street. One of the panhandlers who was sitting down on the sidewalk was a young woman in her early twenties. She was holding up a sign that read "Need money for weed!" I didn't give her money. I was shocked. I have seen...

I believe that I have my stuff together on this one. If I am correct, this is a Hollerith card. I first worked with them at the University of Georgia (the Harvard university of the South) in 1976 when I was also completing the programming course work for one of my undergraduate classes. It...

The southwest should be O K unless Jim Cantore starts his spiel. It has already been said that the southwest is unique when it comes to large volumes of rain. When we lived in Arizona volumes of rainfall running down from the mountains was always a risk. I am not sure what the situation is...

Bad Weather Headed Towards the Southwest LVSteve is right on target! The news is reporting that the southwest has not had this type of weather since 1939. We lived in Phoenix for five years and then Austin for twenty years. The idiots seem to come out of the woodwork when these weather events...

Pensylvania Home Explosion I don't think that either methane or natural gas has a detectable odor. I have been a DIYer all my life, but have never attempted to perform any repairs for which natural gas or even propane gas is involved. Additionally, I am also not saying that repairs were being...

Home Explosion Methane gas could be the cause. Did a bit of research. Reminded me of when coal miners kept a canary in a cage with them in the mines. Methane gas is a component of natural gas. In the mines it is odorless and colorless. But it displaces oxygen. In large quantities in a confined...

I agree with all of the previous posts that recommended going on line and, if you do not already have an account, it's time to do so. I received an e-mail notification from the SSA earlier this year that almost all functions and activities will be accomplished on line. Here's the URL: my...

What Arlo said! I have observed this same new practice in our area over the last few months. I can't explain all of it. The merchant's explanations focus on the fact that supply chain costs, as well as labor costs, employee-turnover costs, etc. have been continuously increasing, the merchant...

Mark, Congratulations! You Done Great! I visited your website and then went to the "About" section. The write up and information was impressive. There aren't a lot of businesses in operation today that are the size of yours, especially those that have successfully had the business in...
