The older I get, and especially at the state level, the more of a single issue voter I become- public land protection and access. So unlike the famous quote often falsely attributed to Churchill about “Not a liberal when young, you have no heart, if not a conservative when old, you have no...
When I’ve been around people using suppressors with centerfire rifles, you still need ear protection. Not so with a 22, and especially with subsonic. IMO, suppressors shine brightest on rimfires for this reason.
I have a tikka t1x but for a 17hmr and with a Silencerco Sparrow suppressor. It’s an awesome set up and I’m sure you would be very happy with the t1 for a 22 as well. The gun is amazingly accurate considering its cost and very well made. The suppressors shine brightest on rimfires IMO...
I don’t cherry pick, I don’t believe any of it. My point is that it’s a slippery slope to invoke the Bible. And your opponents will quote what they need to. It happens all the time throughout history, such as during slavery times. To the financial point, I agree with you for the most part...
I’m not religious so I have no dog in this fight, but I know enough to realize the Bible can be easily cherry picked to suit any occasion. So your lack of biblical “bootstraps” can be countered with 2 Thessalonians 3:10. If a man won’t work, then let him not eat.
As a teenager just getting into hunting I kept a journal. I only waterfowl hunted them and it’s pretty fun to read the stories now. Lots of drama with my younger brother as I was learning to reverse in a boat with a stick shift. We even had a few fights when my youthful incompetence lead to us...
@BuzzH , my bold statements about Clark vs Bueckers and UConn winning didn’t exactly age well. Weird game tho. I’ll be rooting for Iowa now, gonna be real tough and better bring it a lot better than today
I have no issue with it. One man’s trash is another man’s treasure. I talked to the local charity employee, they said the amount of stuff they end up throwing away is amazing. I think most people essentially donate to get rid of the clutter. We live in a throwaway culture and in my town at...
A man of my stature is above those white trash drugs. Pure Colombian coke for me. But even in my lucid times, I stand by it. More asinine to me than the GOAT talk are those that pretend he’s not even a top five or ten all time. That’s a much more comical debate. And I bet it’s partly fueled...
@406dn , i appreciate your view of the game and have a very similar opinion. I still enjoy NBA, especially the playoffs. The All-Star game is joke though. Another awesome player to watch is Doncic. His assists are a sight to behold and his off tempo style leads to some great finishes for him...
Half the game is defense and Buecker is clearly better at that. And Iowa has been a one woman show so Clark can rack up stats more easily. But neither of us will convince the other. We will see come Friday. More stats for you though...
I don’t really see how that’s relevant. Was Maravich the best college player ever? Is Lebron the GOAT (to me he is, but it’s not because of his scoring record)? There’s more to the game than scoring. It’s not an outlandish statement that I made. Just my opinion. Lastly, Vegas has Iowa by...
As much of a baller as Clark is, I think Bueckers is the better player overall. I think I’ll put some money on UConn for the upset of Iowa. Regardless, that should be a helluva game.
I guess, yes. I would promise to give you a basic level of living that will ultimately get you by. It won’t be much though, certainly nothing like you’re enjoying now. But I prefer that versus stepping over your rotting corpse or explaining to my kid why an extremely elderly man is gonna spend...
