My mom passed away

My mother finally passed away yesterday morning, around 7am California time. She was 100 years old, and would have made 101 on December 8th if she had lasted that long. I’m actually doing ok, other than it seems weird to type or speak the words "my mother has died." I’m sure I’ll grieve her loss at ...

Re: In today's times............


No changes. There’s always something going on in the world.

What he said.

What i carry depends on where I’m going, and how long I plan to be gone. What might change is maybe getting back to putting some kind of long gun in the car if I’m going to be far from home for a while.

Re: Jensen VS ATF to repeal the NFA Registrations; Texas Rifle Association joins in

The Four Boxes Diner has a good explanation for why we have to be careful which cases to litigate to remove SBRs and suppressors from the NFA.

Re: California bans Glocks


Really? Ban just Glocks? What reason, a public emergency? All murders in CA with just Glocks? Extra scary looking?

It's a reaction to "glock switches." I kid you not….They think that the Glock pistol is a machine gun because you can hack it with a switch. It hasn't occurred to them yet that it's ...

Re: Walking stick or walking cane?


Happy early birthday. And no offense but those look like something that if I didn't know better I'd believe was going to slither up and bite me. :)

None taken! :lol: They do look a little like something that might bite, don’t they? Mine is rustic, but not quite as coarse as the ones in that ...

Re: Weird signage


Not a lawyer, but I would think combining signage that is dictated to be verbatim by legislation wouldn't be enforceable. They are separate PC codes and I've never seen a 30.06 and 30.07 sign combination. Maybe srothstein will chime in. BTW I messaged you on Facebook about Firearm Policy Coalition ...

Weird signage

I’m currently getting PT for spinal problems, and the PT center where I’m receiving treatment has a weird mashup of a 30.05, 30.06, and 30.07 all in one. The font size appears correct, but the text is throwing me. Is it valid to put all three signs together into one?

Re: Is the Grapevine Rail Museum posted??

It wasn’t the last time I was there, but that was easily 10 or more years ago. If you’re not already a member, join texas3006.com and see if it’s listed there.

Re: Walking stick or walking cane?

I have a Hawthorne root cane I bought from Whistle Creek. I don’t find it on their website any more, but there are other vendors. It has served me well as a cane for close to 20 years now, and it’s sturdy enough to make a credible shillelagh in the event that "corrective measures" become necessary ...

Re: VPN issues


I noticed the same problem, but I use SurfShark for my VPN, and it allows me to specify a specific web site or specific app which is allowed to bypass the VPN without having to turn off the entire VPN on my computer.

I don't know if NordVPN has the same feature or not though.

It’s not Nord that ...
