Was just given what I was told was a black WW2 era holster for the PO8 Luger. Holster has seen use but still quite serviceable! Has tool and spare magazine! Only markings I could find were PO8 and it looks like the initials JKH 42 next to a Nazi eagle, WITH a smaller swastika below that...

No clue to what is going on with the delivery services, but funny mushrooms might be ingested by drivers. My wife ordered some items through Amazon. She got conformation that for some reason she would get 3 deliveries. That proved out to be correct. I was riding my ATV to go down to the...

Was going through a box of everything and anything and I found a paper copy of Jim Carmichael's book "The complete just Jim (it says first edition 1973 on it) Anything special, I know its not in '' No Second place Winner'' category but does it have any value?

The power company has been saying for a while now that we are to get a "New Upgraded power meter. " Got a robo call about a hour ago saying they would be here in a maximum of a week. OK-fine. I'm realy not impressed with this new meter concept as from what I have seen it opens us to much...

I have been seeing those commercials that are making a lot of noise about crooks that manage to change your deed paperwork and put on a few mortgages. It makes it sound like you do not have much recourse. To me this ad campaign is new as a few months ago and their are a few outfits that say...

Looks like on the lake I live on we have reached Ice Out time. Rather nice to see after the crazy winter we just got over. (I hope its all done) Plow is now off the Tundra 4X4 till next year! Water level is coming up fast and if we get any decent spring rains the water will get high enough...

Picture taken outside the restaurant we celebrated our 55 years of marriage Saturday evening. The two big guys my sons, the wife in the middle and my grandson in front. The 12 year old is coming along nicely. He is proficient in regular bow, compound bow and likes the crossbow. He already...

Yesterday we got a lot of snow and it was high enough to cover the air intake & exhaust pathways. My Generac looked more like a skiers mogul than a generator.-:D So for you people that live in a snow area be sure your genny is uncovered, if your going to need its power its a thing that...

My grandson (Dominic) age 12, somewhere on the rather large Sacandaga reservoir NY state!

Just got of the phone after a hour of interesting frustration. I got talked into getting a big box building supply charge card a couple years ago. I was buying a tool and that would save me $30 as a member. Not realy that impressed with that store lately and will never use the card so I...

Its going to be a long event here at the lakesiders house. The Hallmark Christmas/holliday playing of movies started a couple weeks ago. Now do not get me wrong I like this time of the year but seeing and hearing that way too early and way too often gets old fast!:mad: I prefer a reasonably...

My wife just found this and sent it to me. Thought I would share it with the group!

After hearing and seeing horror stories of heavy duty raises in home insurance I got my renewal notice yesterday. Got a glass of my favorite beverage (my well water) and sat down and slowly/carefully opened the envelope. To my chagrin it was only up 95 dollars from last year. I guess...

We got hit hard in my general area. Their not a 100% sure if it was a tornado, straight line thunderstorm or both. What ever you call it did lots of damage in a sort of checker board layout. Many boats damaged! We were dead center between two extremely hard hit areas and that saved us many...

A friend that is 83 years old that has been fighting the good fight against cancer for the last 5 years is leaving us. His daughter came up to take him to the different state she lives in, taking him to a hospice near her. He is a member of our Thursday morning get together at the local family...

A little while ago one of the do-gooder groups had a gun buy back. The camera was panning the table showing off how many of the awful guns they got off the street and soon to be destroyed:eek:. I did see some rather nice long guns (mostly hunting types) and a hodge-podge of other guns. Some...

A major road around the lake I live on is going to have a bridge replaced. The powers that be are going to install a portable traffic light system to make this a alternating share the road trip. (There working on it now) Going to make this area a serious Charlie Foxtrot till sometime in fall...

Yesterday as normal was at the local diner with the rest of the "old farts" We were on our way out and this man approached us and asked a question. Got to admit he was very hard to understand so he had to repeat a couple times. (I think he might have been Scottish.) I figure out he was asking...

We are getting HAMMERED. About 7'' of heavy slop down now.( By the weather guessers a lot more to come) Lots of power failures. The road plow trucks have not came by my house yet. Our power has blinked out twice for a couple seconds. By the looks of how the trees are bending over it does not...

I'm far from a geek so I hope I explain this OK. (My cat knows more about computers that I do) Hit a spot I do not normally go into (Network and internet connections) Shows a couple things with my wife's name on it, thats fine that is the name for the locked WiFi connections we use. She knows a...
