    NFL news: 100 yard 2-point touchdown run??

    I actually thought this rule was already in place. Now, I have a question. Suppose the defensive player intercepts the pass on the 2 point conversion and runs it down the field to his end zone. But just before he reaches it a player from the offensive team catches him and knocks the ball out of...

    Music: formative years (edited)

    I grew up (OK, got older, never really grew up) listening to the Kingston Trio. Dad had a bunch of their albums. My favorite song of theirs was MTA. Never understood why Charlie's Wife, when she handed him the sandwich every day as the train sped by, didn't just put a nickle in it so the poor...

    Has the threat of Islamic terror affected your thoughts on carry?

    Yeah, I guess I have had a different mindset since 9/11. I have had a carry permit for over 30 years. Used to carry occasionally. Now do so pretty constantly. A few years ago there was a report on Glenn Beck's show on Fox about The Perfect Day. Seems a bunch of documents had been captured in...

    Church's Fried Chicken and Waffle House Diet Update:65 pounds

    Nice thing about it is it's running with a purpose. I can play for an hour or more and not get winded. If I were to run around the block somebody would have to do CPR.:eek: I will run when I'm out of ammunition. This is HIGHLY unlikely to happen.:D Jim

    Church's Fried Chicken and Waffle House Diet Update:65 pounds

    Congratulations on your success!:cool: My Dad died when I was 29. He never had the chance to explain the facts of life to me. (No, not THOSE facts. Missus Fan is an Older Woman, she explained 'em on our wedding night).:D The facts of life are, if you're a guy, when you hit your mid 30...

    I actually found a sleepy pill that works!

    I'm 50. In perfect (physical) health. Missus Fan says I am going through dementia now. Short term memory is no existent, but I can remember stuff that happened 40 years ago.:eek: I have been taking Melatonin for about a dozen years. I does not help you get to sleep, but it keeps you asleep, and...

    I actually found a sleepy pill that works!

    A few months ago I had a thread on here asking if anybody knew of a non prescription sleep aid that did not contain Dypenhydramine. That is what I had been taking for years, and Missus Fan read it leads to dementia, which she says I am fully in the throes of.:eek: Was at a small town drug store...

    BEST Concealed Carry Revolver

    So far everybody has mentioned J-Frames. I must admit they are handy to carry, but I don't feel comfortable using one as a primary. My M340PD lives constantly in my left side pocket. (I'm right handed). For my primary carry revolver my favorite is my 2 1/2" M66-1. It is small enough to carry...

    When insults had class

    Not really an insult, but it's a classic: A guy opens a door for a flaming feminist. She indignantly says "you don't have to do that just because I'm a Lady". He calmly responds "no, Ma'am, I do that because I'm a Gentleman".:cool: Always wanted to have that happen to me.:D Jim

    Model 50 target

    Welcome to the Forum. I think you probably mean a 1950 Target. Yours was made in 1953 according to the Catalog. Is it a .44 Special or a .45 ACP? We'd like to see a picture. Then somebody can give you a value estimate. These are very desirable revolvers and some are worth several thousand...

    Need Knife Advice.

    I think Spyderco can fill your needs. The Endura is close to a 4" blade. They make several different models. I carry a Delica all the time clipped to my pocket. Blade is about 3" long. Use it every day for something. Opening letters, cleaning my fingernails or cutting a steak, which grosses...

    People's vocabulary skills certainly are lacking

    These weren't kids. First was a Woman who told me she was 63. Next was a Woman who is in her early 50s. I teased he and told her I'm sure her Dad, who is a friend of mine, would know. Saw him later. He is a retired Pastor, probably almost 80. He also had no idea what a bumbershoot is.:eek: I was...
