Re: Personal Computer Security and Privacy Questions

If you're using Firefox, I highly recommend the Ghostery add-on: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/ghostery/" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; It blocks LOTS of tracking. Also, I suggest Better Privacy: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/betterprivacy/...

Re: Fun with the TSA

Last time I was at DFW, I was at a crowded checkpoint, and in all the hussle I forgot to remove my comb in my back jeans pocket. Not a holster, but still a big mistake. I stepped through the scanner - red light went off, some big TSA dude grabbed my belt from behind and started patting me down right...

Re: My Bro. got his CHl in 25 days !!

Does your brother already have any kind of other state-issued license, one that might require a background check? I mailed everything last Oct. 3 - received plastic on Oct. 22, 19 days later. I had just renewed my pharmacy technician license in May however, so I've always thought that must have some...

Gun Show Dealer Inventory - Is There A Secret?

OK, this will probably be the first of many dumb questions I'll eventually ask, but I can't resist. :confused5 When visiting a local dealer's retail location, they always have a decent selection of handguns on display, especially for the makes & models they probably sell a lot of. But their disp...
