I saw a Cyber Truck up close for the 1st time today. Today is Mrs. QD67's birthday, and I took her to the restaurant of her choosing. When we came out, there was a 4 door Cyber Truck parked out front. I had no idea that these things were that big. I was thinking they were about the size of a...

We had one of the wettest Mays on record here in NEPA. We went from having a rainfall deficit to being well above average. It is a good thing in a way. The threat of drought has been eliminated, and the rash of brush fires we had in April are a memory. The downside is flooding. Honesdale PA...

We are under a high wine warning here in NEPA. It's been very windy since last night, and the temperature has dropped about 20 degrees from yesterday. We ended up with a quarter inch of ice, which was really fun to shovel off the driveway. Surprisingly, we did not lose power, and have had no...

The tree and train set comes down tomorrow. My Mom would always keep the tree up until Russian (Orthodox) Christmas. Growing up in Scranton, she said they called it Little Christmas. I don't know if this was an Irish Catholic thing or a Scranton thing. Orthodox Christmas was the 7th. So...

I'm helping out with the annual FC gun raffle, and I was wondering what the hot guns are right now. I will admit, I'm mostly old school and do not keep up on what is trending in the new firearm, caliber, and scope realm. Cost is an issue too, so we try to keep it under $800 or less. Any...

I recently saw a M1911A1 ASF Tisas. It is a clone of the Remington Rand model built beginning in 1943. Of all the clones I've seen, this one is the closest. And the price is right (low $400's). I have an older Springfield Armory M1911A1 that is supposed to be a WWII clone. It's close, but not...

While we all know about the "A Christmas Story " movie marathon at this time of year, Grit TV has something different. They are showing Clint Eastwood westerns, starting today at 8am Eastern, with the one that started it all (and my personal favorite), "A Fistful of Dollars". The lineup is...

There are 2 NFL games on Christmas Day. One are the Steelers, a team I've followed since I was a kid. I'm not getting into the politics of the NFL, or whether or not they should be playing on Christmas. What's got me pissed is that the games are only on Netflix. The exception is that they are...

It's a little chilly in my part of Penn's Woods. And it's supposed to be colder tonight. I did our Santa run yesterday. My Bunker gear kept me warm (l dressed up as Santa's "elf") On the positive side, we are going to have a white Christmas. There's about 4" on the ground. And we will get a...

I met my friend for a light lunch today at the TGIFridays by Scranton. Overall, it was ok. She ordered some fancy blue green drink. She said it was good (came with a slice of fresh pineapple). I had 2 Miller Lite drafts. We got the appetizer platter. Picked mozzarella sticks, Buffalo...

No, this isn't about politics. It's about Christmas music. November 1st marks the beginning of the 24/7 Christmas music on SiriusXM. I didn't go looking for it either. I have a classical music channel preprogrammed on my car's radio. I was scrolling through it on the way home and I got...

I shot the CSP marked M&P .40 for the 1st time today. I used 165 and 180gr ammo. Fired 25 rounds of each in 5 round strings. 25ft indoors. No FTF/FTE, no problems whatsoever. I did have the large grips on it, but I switched them to mediums. It seemed to make a difference on the 165gr...

I recently purchased a NOS California Parks marked M&P 40 S&W (I pick it up tomorrow and will post pics when I get it home). Anyway, it comes with 2 15rd mags. I wanted a few more. I bought a "new" one from CDNN that has a serial number electropenciled on it. Cheap enough, so ok. Looks...

Anyone following? Baltimore dominated Houston. I was hoping that the Packers could hold on, but no luck. Today's games should be interesting. I'm rooting for the Lions, since those fans have been starved of the postseason for decades. And I'm rooting for the Bills.The Chiefs had their...

It looks like the clock on the forum is about 20 minutes fast?

Woke up in the middle of the night shivering and cold. I snuggled up to Mrs. QD67 to keep warm. Then the hacking cough started. And the headache. Now I have a long sleeve t-shirt on and a heavy hoodie, and I'm still cold. This went through my office, so I'm not too surprised I got it...
