    automatic or standard

    I suppose they all have their good and bad points but for me the only automatic for pulling is the Allison. I'm on my second Duramax/Allison and I'm well pleased. First one went a little over 300K with -0- problems with the transmission - none, nada, nothing. Of course I changed the fluid and...

    Wondering about a Bug Assault Gun

    Yea, I've got one of those toys. Bug-A-Salt is the maker of mine. I shoot sea salt in mine. Had it for a year or so.

    If 20 million illegals vacated America:

    I like your quote "There are two ways to be fooled. One is ........." If what this reporter has stated is true then we are certainly in a heck of a mess. So sad.

    Credit Cards

    You are right, Faster. We fund a special and separate account for the debit card to help get around that issue and limit our exposure. I had a $50K charge from Germany show up on my AMEX card a few years back. Turns out that's when Pay Pal was hacked.

    Outhouse

    This subject brings up memories from many years ago when I was growing up. I attended a one room school when I was in the third grade. The teacher was Miss Kitty Butts. The procedure for going to the outhouse was to quietly get out of your seat, write your name on the blackboard (remember...

    Poem that my cousin wrote

    I don't envy anyone having to manage their calving like this. A lot of work and frustration for sure. I guess I've (we've) been extremely fortunate in that regard. Ranching has been in my family for more than a 100 years and I've been doing it for 50 years. I've only had to pull one calf and...

    My take

    Sir, I have two semi-auto rifles. I have zero full auto rifles. I kill feral hogs with a 12 ga shotgun loaded with buckshot. But my place is heavily wooded and I can usually get on them before they know what hit them. I also trap them. Both methods have been very effective. Haven't seen a hog on...

    My take

    Leanin', Yea, I agree that it wasn't the weapon that killed all those beautiful children in Florida. Neither is the car that kills more than 30,000 people a year. I also agree that the purpose of the second amendment is to protect citizens against a bad government. But the second amendment does...

    why anyone NEEDS an AR-15

    Dude - why is this Trumps fault???? I suppose the bad weather the folks in the NE are having right now is Trumps fault as well. If there was ever a reason to own an automatic weapon it is because of people like you! I assume the "ME" in this narrative is YOU.

    My take

    Exactly the same weapons - that's all that was available unless you categorize rocks and sticks as effective weapons.

    My take

    [/color] Exactly the point! Big, I am assuming that you were trying to make a literal statement about the second amendment. No one (NO ONE) would put a group of people in harms way without SOME training. You need to show militia members at least which end of the weapon goes against the...

    why anyone NEEDS an AR-15

    Right on the mark! Let's ban cars. After all they are responsible for many, MANY times more deaths as guns.

    My take

    George (and Big Muddy) I am not trying to start an argument, just offering another opinion. Opinions are like elbows, everyone has at least one. Again, I respectfully disagree about the comment as to the reason for the decline in aircraft hijackings. I don't believe it was the armed air...

    My take

    Gorge, there is some merit in what you are proposing. I respectfully disagree about arming teachers and while I disagree I can see some 7', 300 pound 17yo taking a weapon away from a teacher and using it as he pleases. What I still can't understand is how a shooter gained access to a school...

    There was a fellow over on the other board who was my cyber pen pal. He's gone now and his insightful posts will be missed. So long, Dun.

    Farm Junk

    A subject not too many folks talk about - maybe ashamed and I was just wondering what you do with yours. Keep in mind we have no garbage pick up, the ranch is a little bit remote (not like some of your spreads) and you can't bury it - at least not according to the EPA. Last year my wife wanted...

    Our first trip to AZ desert

    FH, we took a few days off to travel to Wyoming to see the eclipse last year. We "camped out" in a travel trailer not quite as big as yours and we did spend one night in a Walmart parking lot. We simply over estimated how far we could tow in one day. Trip was uneventful until we started back and...
