Think winter coming up. Think heavy clothing. Think hardball.

A big reason to use the bronze wool is that the particles left behind will not rust and leave rust marks on the wood as steel wool will. If you have a boat with teak decks around salt water the rust spots show up fast on the decks as a result of using steel wool. Sanding wet with oil may help for st...

The Iditarod can be a hostile place as evidenced by this interview with a contestant, Susan Butcher: "In 1985, I was traveling alone at night in the lead of the race and ran into an obviously crazed moose. She was starving to death. There was something wrong with her. She was just skin and bone...

I'd want the gun on my person, as the sled isn't always where you are when things go nasty. AJ is spot on. My 2400 hrs as a FAC in RVN (Birddogs) taught me that you leave a downed plane with what you have. It has to be on your body. Mine was a 1911. Long arms are nice to contemplate, but it seldom ...

Great thumbnail article about JMB and his leverguns (among others).

I sometimes do that with employees , too - if we have a position, I'll hire two part-timers and let them know up-front that one of them will not be staying after 90 days, and the other will get full-time status. It's "mean", but as long as I'm honest up front, it's a good way to sort 'em ...

Great application for Trapper models!

Don't screw with a good story!

Bud, "33" (as in Sunny Southeast Asia fame) and anything French (which is where "33" started).

They also make a bronze wool which I used to use on our boat. The small bits left behind won't promote more rust.

Just using pencil lead will also remove some light stuff.

I primarily carry Colt LW OFC in either Mernickle PS6SA or Milt Sparks IWB (summer). Also have Ruger 45LC, Birdshead with 3" bbl in a Mernickle PS6SA. Prefer the Colt. Sometimes substitute the a Colt Govt (1943) model for the LW Ofc Model, especially in winter. Don't shoot the Govt. too much as...

Unlike the current crop, she was one of many who toured 'Sunny Southeast Asia' with Hope and others. Not too many of the current ones seem to do that as much now. Ann Margaret was another trooper with Hope. I never saw any of them as I was where they weren't!

I once used a 75mm and rolls of toilet paper worked verrrry well!

Done from the High Desert of Central Oregon. Tell your Dad to rejoin us soon.
Don't forget the cardiac rehab!

Thanks. Brings back many memories from here and there. Great times in the US Army Flying Club!

A lot of time in Beavers, Otters, Bird Dogs, Mohawks, Barons and King Airs + plus various fling-wings (helios).

Presently grounded and hangared in Central Oregon.

I quit using the humidifier on mine because I'm lazy and didn't feel like cleaning it once a week. Which you need to do if you use it to keep the little bugs out of your lungs. Besides down here the humidity stays around 70-80% all year long anyway. Try soaking it in OXYCLEAN for a few hours. I fin...

Currently 0F and CAFB in High Desert of Central Oregon.

Great idea! Good for outboards on boats. Our sheriff's office has them on the counter. Just help-yourself if you need more. This could develop into a "new use for duct tape" thread.

Used .45 ACP in Sunny SE Asia. From a slow Bird Dog they sort of just spiraled to the ground. Used primarily to start fires in the dry grass. Not as effective as thermite grenades (these where similar to smoke grenades).

Sierra Hotel!

But not for me.

So, lets find a candidate or two for the board and vote ONLY for them in the next board election. Several of us wrote in JimT, Paco and John Taffin in the last election. Voting only for those you like even though you could vote for a bunch concentrates your vote on the deserving and takes votes fro...

Love the fast movers but my speed is lo & slo. Beavers, Otters, and Bird Dogs. Occasionally one of those things with the propeller on top!

We learned from years of blue water cruising that stainless isn't!

We also learned that a lot of workboat folks look at rust as a protective coating!

Best to keep vigilant.

Appears it is going nowhere.

We use a Traeger wood pellet BBQ and have been doing Pizzas for quite awhile. The mesquite pellets give it a very tasty flavor.
