    Naval Academy shooting

    The victim here is distant family. This is from his father: We got a text from him that there was an active shooter on his floor. He also sent a bunch of screenshots and info coming from leadership at the academy, stating to shelter in place and dont let anyone in your room, as the shooter...

    The single most USMC story ever told!!!

    My son in law recently was on the aircraft emergency crew at Cherry Point. He just told me the mattress thing is absolutely true and in fact standard procedure when the front landing gear stuck on a Harrier. He said they used to joke when they had a problem... "go get the mattresses".

    45 vs 355 For Pit Bull Defense

    That was lack of proof reading on the news articles part. The dog is dead and he shot it. In NY they don't like to report legal firearm self defense stuff. Had to read facebook posts and stuff to get the details. Here's another news link...

    45 vs 355 For Pit Bull Defense

    https://www.wbng.com/2025/01/17/tioga-co-woman-dead-following-dog-attack/ Local news to me yesterday. Apparently after the pit bull killed its owner, it attacked a man walking his dog. He was carrying and dispatched it. Didn't catch what caliber though.

    Cholesterol and Atherosclerosis

    I'm pretty early into this. No meds for me till I get a better understanding of what is going on. Made a bunch of diet changes. I always tried to eat reasonably well and chose lower fat stuff because it sounded like a good idea. In the last few years I was reading a lot on how the dietary...

    Cholesterol and Atherosclerosis

    Damn, that's rough. Sorry you drew the short straw on the topic. My understanding is with someone like you, the problem can start in your teens. For many it starts later. Proper care and meds can prolong the disease a long time. But doctors aren't testing for these conditions. They talk...

    Cholesterol and Atherosclerosis

    I'm not trying to say Attia is the credible researcher. I know he is into all kinds of things related to life longevity. I have no knowledge to his credibility there. He described Dr. Thomas Dayspring as his mentor on the lipidology topic and one of his podcast Sessons was with Dayspring...

    Cholesterol and Atherosclerosis

    The other thread got taken over by anti-medicine howler monkeys and I think many here could benefit from some additional information. I tested high for cholesterol and since I don't trust doctors, or most anyone, I've been researching this topic for several months to make an informed decision...

    Ok... so what if?

    Alternate theory: What if after how hard it was to contain the 2020 steal, combined with Trumps huge increase in voter support, they concede it won't be possible to steal it again so they are setting up FJB to have a narrative as to why they lost versus the people actually want Trump and less...

    I don't mean to step on any toes here....... but

    Oh I could fill a page up on this topic but I won't. I say taillights and dust. Be careful though. If she's flipping out while on Welbutrin she might also be a little stabby.

    Maggie’s What are you drinking right now!?

    I probably would never have chosen this bottle being from California. It was gifted to me and I have to say it's very good!

    The reason employees suck and there’s a shortage of them

    My wife is a manger of engineers at our country's largest defense contractor. She has work-from-home millennials that are blatantly lying and cheating the system and she is not allowed, (by company policy), to tell them they are not doing a good job. She has to use phrases like "we may need to...

    Been saving the last sip of this one. Not likely going to replace it at the price they are...

    Maggie’s What are you drinking right now!?

    How much does that bottle cost in your neck of the woods? I went through lots of those when they were around $39 here, then they suddenly jumped about $10. GlenDronach makes good stuff!!
