Jarkey Jar Opener Best kitchen gadget in 50 years. I bought one of these things, and it's amazing. Wish I had one 50 years ago. If you ever wrestled getting the lid off a jar, get one, you'll thank me for the tip after you use it the first time...

With so many firearms made of both aluminum and steel, how come we don't see examples of galvanic corrosion, e.g., corrosion between the dissimilar metals? Or are people 50 years from now apt to see it in firearms made today? Coatings such epoxy or anodizing create barriers between the metals...

Is there any circumstance where you, as a non-LEO, in your home state, can legally hold someone at gunpoint until police arrive? I'm thinking in my home state such a circumstance does not exist. To hold someone at gunpoint means threatening him with death, and in my state, you can't do that...

George's wife was scared to death about George - she knew he would be driving on highway to get home, and she just heard on the radio that a car was going the wrong way on the highway. Just then George drove up and walked into the house. His wife said thank goodness you're home safe, I heard on...

Dawn Wells, aka Mary Ann on Gilligan's Island, died. She was 82. COVID contributed. Some trivia: Dawn was Miss Nevada in the 1959 Miss America pageant. She also beat out 350 other actresses for the Gilligan's Island part, including Raquel Welch. We old timers wouldn't have minded Raquel Welch...

(edited) I saw post on an anti-gun group a couple days ago (see screen capture below), and jumped to the conclusion that Facebook was donating money to anti-gun groups. I was critical of Facebook in my initial post. David Wilson in post #13 below pointed out that Facebook also gave money to...

Don't get me going about Walmart. It seems every time I go to Walmart numerous people I don't even know stealthily take photos of me, mostly from behind and the side where I can't see them well. I can hear some of them chuckle. I just don't get it. Anyone else have this problem?

It's interesting to see what kind of different knife shapes / designs are out there. If you have any that are a little different post a picture! These two are the more unique of what I own. The all metal one with the rectangular sheath is made by Giant Mouse and is model GMF1. 2.6 inch blade...

VT's governor is ordering closed what he deems to be non-essential businesses / activities starting at 5pm today. Gun stores are not on the exempted list. (Link below) CT & IL exempted gun stores in their shutdowns. Even those states took into account Constitutional concerns. I can't say...

Just curious - do any public high schools still have rifle teams? My former Connecticut high school did, up until at least the late 70's, you could "letter" in it. I was just reading that my old school's coach from that era just passed away, and I found myself thinking what a shame that the...

Anyone here have any experience with civil forfeiture? I thought the youtube video explaining it by a lawyer was fascinating. I guess, don't drive with cash! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jr2oItXC1eM

Photo taken 15 minutes ago. She's putting a good dent in the gray squirrel population! There used to often be 6 - 8 squirrels hanging around the feeder at any one time, now it's empty of squirrels, and now and then 1 to 3 of them. Good kitty! When I posted a pic of her a few days ago I said...
