    Ever give someone an intentionally scary ride?

    I've seen a couple of those, and felt really sorry for the ladies. You're asking the girl of your dreams the most important question she'll probably ever be asked, and you scare her half to death in the process, intentionally. I have always hoped the lady would say answer, "No!".

    Posted my car for sale on CL, in 10 minutes I was contacted by a scammer

    We don't want people coming to our home, so we always have people meet us at a local police station parking lot. If they don't want to do that, they don't get to look at what we have to sell.

    HAPPY HOLIDAY ..!!!

    I found out about eye dominance only 3-1/2 or so years ago, and I'm 55. I'm right handed everything. I hunted dove and quail with friends when I was a teenager, but I never could shoot as well as they could. Didn't know why. I would read in the sporting magazines that I needed to shoot with both...

    Crazy Club Rates?

    Compared to a club near me, that's crazy. They have a Cherokee 6. Monthly dues (no buy in) are $125/mo., but any month you fly club planes 4 hrs. or more, you get a $75 discount the next month. So, fly 4 hrs or more each month and your monthly dues are $50. The 6 goes for $125/hr. dry tach time.

    Public Smoking

    That sounds like a rough way to grow up. Cigarette smoke doesn't bother me too much, but my wife, on the other hand, has a hard time with it. We can pull up behind a car sitting at a stoplight, and the person in front of us is smoking with the window down. And the small amount of smoke that...

    Bringing him home with honor

    Well, that choked me up. What a great story. I'm sure it means a lot to his family, especially his son.

    CBD and Hemp products

    I don't really see CBD as being any different than other vitamins and supplements. They are not regulated, either. CBD is not really a manufactured product like regulated pharmaceuticals. It is a natural product where the manufacturing involved is extracting it from the plant, and then inserting...

    CBD and Hemp products

    Same here. My wife needs to go about once per month to keep a lifeguard injury at bay from when she was a teenager. Otherwise, she starts having shoulder and hip pain. Then a couple of years ago, my lower back suddenly started causing me immense pain. Sometimes, I could not even get up to walk...

    Flying from California to Oshkosh in a Grumman Tiger / part 2: Fisk Arrival

    Enjoyed that segment of your flight. It was really cool how you showed all the traffic and highlighted planes you were following.

    And so it begins......

    LOL! I would probably have the skills to build my own plane, but I sure wouldn't have the patience. Two or three year build time? I don't think I would ever finish. I would be one of those guys who sells off a partially complete kit.

    The Ultimate Pedal Airplane

    I love the soundtrack! You would certainly be the envy of the neighborhood if your dad did that for you.

    It was the San Bernardino shooting four years ago that introduced me to concealed carry. I had never really thought about it until then.

    Off Airport Landing

    Right on both accounts. It wasn't pretty, but he and it looks like his plane were completely unharmed. As if having to land on a busy road is not pucker factor enough, I'm sure his pucker factor shot up another notch or two with that landing.

    Not necessarily in my state. Disparity of force is taken into account in self-defense. A man with a special needs son would have a difficult time defending both against two or three hoodlums surrounding him and appearing to be ready to attack him. You just have to believe there is a threat of...

    Was followed today.

    Most of the time, yes. But it is not always possible to avoid a confrontation. No matter how good one's situational awareness, criminals are really good at ambush. If you suddenly find yourself surrounded by two or three thugs, or boxed in by their car, evade and escape may be difficult or...

    The Impossible Burger

    I don't know how Burger King survives around here. The couple of stores that I drive by frequently almost never seem to have any significant number of people there. The parking lots have few cars in them.
