    1357 Days -- But Who's Counting?

    Subject to change, of course, but after a great deal of reflection, I've chosen 12/31/2028 as my target date for retirement. And today, after spending HOURS online and on the phone with my cell phone company trying to get my password, PIN and other issues sorted out, that's also my target date...

    Praise for TSA agents

    Never expected to be writing those words, but credit where it's due. Yesterday I had a great experience flying out of Spokane. Agents were all very pleasant, professional and efficient. It would be great if the agency could replicate the way they operated at other locations. Now if someone...

    Wallace, Idaho

    I'm heading up for a few days later this week to scout the area as a possible place to buy something small as a summer retreat to beat the Arizona heat, and to use as a getaway when I retire to the Boise area in a few years. Anybody with ties to or extensive knowledge of the area with thoughts...

    Revolution Safe Revolving Storage

    As I prepare to move my current gun safe from the guest bedroom to the home office, I am reminded of how much I hate having to remove rifles and shotguns from the front to get to the one I want, which always seems to be in the back. So this innovation appeals to me: Stronghold XL Series -...

    Which upland bird gun?

    I'm considering getting an O/U shotgun which would be dedicated to dove, quail and maybe pheasant. Leaning toward 20 gauge (or maybe 28?) with price under $2k. I've read good reviews of the Weatherby Orion and Browning Hunter (grade I) Citori. If it comes down to a choice between these two...

    Used Car with Airbag Deployment

    I have an opportunity to buy a vehicle that had been in an accident with an airbag deployment that was subsequently repaired. I've always said I wouldn't consider buying such a vehicle, but I'm wondering if it might not be worth considering as long as I can have it inspected by a mechanic or...

    Any Adventure Motorcycle Owners?

    Looking for some advice. At age 61.96, I'm contemplating buying my first motorcycle. Initially I was considering something like an Indian Scout (maybe a Bobber or Rogue). But it really makes more sense for me to go in another direction. With kids leaving the nest and my job being something I...

    Southern Utah Rotar Wing Program?

    Some of you may recall my earlier thread about my middle kid who is considering attending Embry-Riddle in Prescott, with a plan to major in Unmanned Aviation Systems. But now he's also looking at the helicoptor program at Southern Utah University. Appears to be a well-regarded program...
