Yeah, you should be good to go. Only three small incisions. Biggest inside the belly button. In the old days the patient was opened up sternum to crotch. Now it's all done with roto-rooter orthoscopy tube surgery. They send the snake in with camera attached. It chews up everything and...
Sooo ... change in your diet must be on the menu? No more bacon and eggs. Raisin bran for breakfast from now on ... and lunch ... and dinner. Could be worse. Dietician could have prescribed Special K. Ugh! Boxed air with a high price tag.
Maybe you learned something that someday may save your eyesight? Google the symptoms. Know what's happening (I didn't!). It's not necessary to get hit in the head with a baseball. Lesson over.
Wonderrods were not cheap junk! Zebco made their own crappy rods. Or maybe True Temper rods would befit a Zebco. Shakespear casting reels were decent enough quality and sturdy. The Johnson closed face reels were a huge step up from Zebco junk. But still good for at least one bird's nest a...
Mine were spontaneous, all three detachments within six months at age 54, and I am not near sighted. Just thin retinas. I'm 71 now and both eyes have been "settled" for more than ten years. "Traction" in left eye was formerly at least a weekly affair. Very unnerving. Now maybe biannual...
I had that surgery ... three times. Fortunately, left eye. But also multiple laser patch jobs to both eyes. Last time was maybe 2012. At one time my eyes were falling apart so fast they expected me to go blind. But I'm good to go now. Left eye gives me depth perception but not much else...
I think it must be older. In the 70s Remington was stamp checkering everything. I have one like yours that was given to my dad the week I was born ... October 1952. I also have his diary confirming when Mom's father bought it for him. As I understand it, 1952 was the first year of production.
No, I got rid of it for Timney several years ago. The trigger in it did have a take-up screw with lock nut but take up the first stage and it would jump the sear if jarred. Anyway, I don't care for two stage at all. And I am deadly with that Timney shooting offhand or on the fly. I think two...
Working guns don't have to be ugly. Here's a couple of man-killers converted to hunting rifles.
This Springfield has killed a couple hundred animals over the last sixty years.
404 Jeffery built on a Czech Brno vz.24.
Both guns were built to work but also easy on the eyes.
Hmmm. I don't know of any US bases in Canada. I don't believe there are any in Africa either. At one time Ethiopia had a US Army base that I planned to transfer to in 1973 but the Emperor was deposed and Army was kicked out. There was a naval/SeaBee base in Morrocco but I think that's gone...
It's a biological fact that our young will try to "break out" during the "formative years." If they didn't, we wouldn't survive as a species. How do we as parents keep them from "breaking" in the wrong direction? It's the ageless question that will never be totally answered. Live a good...
Celebrating the 4th as America's birthday has always seemed a bit iffy to me. The Declaration of Independence was a stab in the dark. Would it work? Could it work? Was it intended as merely a protest to wake up Britian to colonial reform? Did the founding fathers all intend to ultimately...
Well ... that's not good. Don't know what to tell you. Maybe it's not hopeless.
My daughter was a huge pain in the arse during high school years. I was gone quite a bit working out of country and my late wife, God bless her, was totally at a loss to get her under control. Wouldn't go to...
