  1. I have no words, Troph. I'll be thinking about you.
  2. That sounds right. Locally they are saying 4"-8" but southeast of here, Joplin and the like, they are showing 10+. Somebody is getting clobbered, they just don't know who yet.
  3. There was kid, 13 or 14, at the Wichita Gun Club around that same time that shot a scoped Garand in the Hunter class Matches. Every fucking time that scope would bite his eyebrow and he would be a bloody mess by the end. And he won his share of the iron. I always imagined he would win all the time if he had a Mini. I can't imagine not flinching and getting punched every shot.
  4. When they first came out, I converted a couple of them to 6mm-223 for a guy that used them in NRA High-Power matches to replace his Garands. He had some sucess but got tired of handloading and gave up on the experiment. Fun little guns for sure.
  5. It's not Jade's chili. It's a can of Campbell's Bean and Bacon soup with a can of hot Rotel and some browned Hot Jimmie dean sausage. That's how I do lazy.
  6. There was an OLD guy living on the property that claimed to have been a kid when Butch and Sundance were in business. He said he could remember his Dad selling horses to them. He was a windy old coot and I don't have a clue if he was pulling our legs or not. It was pretty entertaining any way.
  7. Yes. I shot a mule deer there in 1980. A friend's son-in law had an in for the property and guided us through it.
  8. Call it squab and it tastes a lot better.
  9. Fourth grade, 1959, I was sifted out of regular elementary school and sent to the Accelerated Program. Found out that most of the kid's parents had purchased Britanica instead of World Book like my broke folks had. I've had self esteem issues ever since. I am triggered
  10. Yeah, I mentioned that in the OP. My son tells me that when he was in middle school, he and his buddies would visit the tote before going on camping trips and the like. I'm gonna guess that there are lots of donors stuck to the pages.
  11. You tellin me that you've never flown a chicken? It easy peasy. Tie some light cord, bout 20', loosely around a chickens neck but not so loose it can slip off. Tie the other end to a truck bumper and start driving slowly. The chicken will run and keep up. Keep increasing the speed until the chicken lifts off and wah-lah you're flyin a chicken.Be careful when you turn a corner. It's too easy to tetherball one of them around a power pole. they don't change direction well.
  12. You betcha
  13. I have a GI surplus 1911 .45 ACP with a .22 LR Cenier conversion kit. It's my favorite handgun with either setup. Being an old parkerized beater I don't have to baby it any. It's very accurate, not like an accurized .45, of course, but plenty good for anything I'm apt to use it for.
  14. This business will get out of control!
  15. Wordle 220 2/6 🟩⬜⬜🟨⬜ 🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩
  16. I aced number 9 at Marion Ks CC today. 8 iron from 130 into a 10 mph north wind. In fucking January. Shits all fucked up. And I’m drunk.
  17. Three fiddy. Duh
  18. Thanks for the info. Sounds like the western end will be the best choice for us. We walk a lot but it’s almost always on gravel roads or prepared trails with minimal climbing. My wife has RA in her hands that makes it hard for her to monkey through a section. She is awfully stubborn though and will tackle a section just to show that it won’t whip her.
  19. Did you do the entire trail? The wife and I are thinking about going down there to hike this but, being in our 70's, we aren't up for the entire trail in one shot. Looking at the map, there are plenty of places to breakout and only do half of it. If you have done it all, which end would you start from?
  20. Same as it ever was. Same as it. Ever. Was.
  21. The list of guns I have owned and sold or traded is longer than my arm. I was always on the lookout for something new and different. The really good stuff I have accumulated is earmarked for my kids but the rest are just pieces that I picked up on a whim. For the most part, they have just been interesting tools.
  22. Looks like Willie Gay has an issue the Chiefs will look past. Hopefully, he took it all out on inanimate objects but with the KC history (and NFL in general) I'm not betting he did. https://www.kctv5.com/news/local_news/chiefs-lb-willie-gay-arrested-in-overland-park/article_66a32fb4-79f0-11ec-9f19-77d4f61fc9c0.html
  23. This. I have been fucking around with Unlimited by using bizarre starting words. Punched in ZEBRA and got four hits with the E and R in proper place. B and A were yellow. BEARS was the easy follow up guess. It seems to me that Wordle tries to come up with words that have some sort of twist to make it more of a thinking game. Unlimited don't give a fuck. Any 5-letter word is fine. It seems easier to me, anyway.
