I have two .357 revolvers that can easily be made to fire without pulling the triggers. They are Dan Wesson models 15-2 (Blued), and a 715 (Stainless steel). All you need to do is tighten up the screw that holds the grip onto the frame too far, and the gun goes from as safe as any revolver ever made to either a gun…

I’m an old guy, and we weren’t taught ANYTHING about finances in school, at least the guys weren’t. The girls(It was all female in Home Ec back then) were taught a little about how to budget their food shopping over a month period, but even that was rudimentary. The only thing we learned to do was how to fill out a…

I can verify that the location matters a lot. I went to the one location a couple of times and it was prefectly fine, nothing bad at all, and the wait staff was great. They didn’t screw up my order, and that’s something special right there, as my life is filled with messed up restaurant orders (Plain, with maybe bacon…

Really shocked about where Meijer came in. I go there over Kroger for price alone, let alone they have some things Kroger supposedly carries but never has in stock. Some of the price differences are pretty wild, some frozen vegetables, like brocolli florets are over 2x the price at Kroger for the store brand. When I…

That was why I passed on Plum Crazy for my ‘18 Challenger. I just wasn’t sure if I would still like it 4 years or more down the line. I ended up with TorRed.. I never get tired of red.

A friend of mine bought a Red and black Ram Rebel a couple of years ago from a dealer near Columbus, Ohio. It was a smaller store, and didn’t have a ton of cars, but it was very strange to see only two actual colored vehicles in the entire front lot, my friend’s truck and a blue Charger. The rest, trucks, cars, Jeeps,…

Not in NW Ohio. I don’t understand it, but this is like a desert as far as decently equipped cars in a good color are concerned. When I was car shopping in 2018, I was looking for a Challenger R/T Scat Pack without a sun roof, but otherwise fairly loaded up. If I wanted silver, black, white, or IMHO, the worst color…

I would rather eat rareish beef than eat any kind of poultry. I don’t get it’s appeal unless it’s fried, and fish is always better, no matter how it’s cooked, unless it’s Tuna, Trout, or Salmon, then I would take the damn chicken, if forced to. The poultry hatin’ runs in the family. My grandfather had no use for it,…

It was one of my dad’s favorites. IMHO, it was just...gross. And that’s being nice, some of the other stuff he ate was worse, and yes, I tried most of them. He actually paid me several times to try stuff as he thought my revulsion was worth every penny. His favorite bribe Barry to eat thing was some sort of fancy…

I was in my heavily modded ‘79 Trans Am on I75 on a rainy summer night heading over to a friend’s house abot 1989. I was about a mile from the exit I was going to take and there is a bridge that passes I75 over a busy street. As I approached the bridge, I see a red F350 with the hood open, sitting on the shoulder,…

I would love to read a transcript of the meeting they had before they approved those monsters. Every so often, a truly horrible looking car is made and I have wondered, “How the hell did that get approved?”, especially when you think about how many levels of management car companies have. Every industry has had things…

I slept with 3 of them for about 3 years, and in my case, it wasn’t their feet pushing me over, it was their backs. Two of them would sleep butt to butt with their backs pushing up against me harder then their 96 and 75 pound weights should have been able to. When the bigger one checked out, the 75 pounder Gus turned…

My dad would love it that way, my mom would be OK with it, and I would say, “Could you cook mine?”. I’ve eaten in high end steakhouses all over the country, and liking rare beef is something I will never understand. We “well done” people just have a different sort of taste sensation than you “rare” people do. To me,…

He has one, it’s not high end, but he needed a new laptop and even in that, he showed how cheap he is. One of their daughters bought him a high midrange laptop, I think it was made by Asus. He ended up taking it back, saying it was “too nice”, getting the money back on it, and bought a pretty sad cheaper one, an HP.…

The WalMart next to the roundabout I dread going through should have a snack bar in the outer parking lot. I see just dented up cars and their owners over there all the time, exchanging info, from early morning until about 9pm, when the other stores all close. One night the high school had kids coming back from an…

Those amazingly horrible grills on the new ones proved that already. How those got past the laugh at stage by management shows they are totally messed up. Out of my price range/interest anyway.

About half the people in town would get to the 2:10 mark and say, “Oh, the inside people have right of way? I didn’t know that!”. There is one in this area where it seems like nobody knows that, and I just hate going through there. Wal-Mart, Sam’s, a bunch of other stores, motels,and a high school, all surround it and…

I’m 66, and never remember an actually great looking BMW. At best they were “OK”. 

If only the Camaro looked 1/10th as good as the new Mustang does. GM really screwed it up and they wonder why they don’t sell well? Look at the damn thing!

A friend of mine is still runing XP on one of his (all but one are ancient POS machines) and 7 on 3 others. The only modern one has 10 on it and he complains endlessly about it. He’s a cheap bastard, no doubt..
