    We spent the winter '05 to '06 in Tucson, wages seemed pretty low. I was offered a job driving a belly dump for $10/hr. Nope.

    My family moved to Anchorage in 1974, I went to high school there and lived there most of the next 40 years before moving to Idaho. With your background I would get a job on the slope and live in the MatSu or in Kenai or Homer. I made $90k a year as an equipment operator/truck driver in both...

    A bit of trivia, Abbey's book The Brave Cowboy was made into the movie Lonely Are The Brave starring Kirk Douglas with a cameo by Abbey. When Abbey died Douglas said it was a shame that Abbey never got the recognition he deserved. In the book when the sheriff demands the cowboy's ID he says "I...

    Love Cactus Ed, been a fan since I discovered him in the early 80's going to NAU. Have read all of his books and he would be spinning in his grave if he saw what they are doing with windmills and solar panels. Funny how back then redneck country boys didn't like his "radical environmentalism"...

    AI completely out of control

    I got my BSEE in '86. I remember an ad in one of the trade magazines, the entire page was black and at the bottom was only: Work On 21st Century Technolgy Today Cental Intelligence Agency

    Calling all poors, what is the most poorish shooting sports thing you've ever done?

    About thirty years ago I spent the summer shooting High Power Rifle with an 03-A3. I couldn't afford decent ammo so I would segregate ball ammo by year so that in each stage I was at least shooting stuff made in the same twelve months. Shooting against guys with AR's I never came in first -...

    I was a rig oiler on one of those during the construction of the trans Alaska pipeline. We used them to put in the VSM's.

    Finding out you forgot your ear protection, the hard way

    When I was a teenager in the 70's we never wore ear pro. Ear muffs? Pfffft, that's for sissies. We didn't have any braked rifles back then but we were fond of Ruger revolvers, 357 mag, 44 mag. eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!

    Fuck EV's, I wouldn't buy one even if they were cheaper than real cars.

    Boomershoot anyone?

    I was just wondering of any of you other Deplorables were going to be at Boomershoot next month. This year I signed up for the field of fire on Saturday as well as the long range event on Sunday. I also volunteered to help set up targets on Friday and clean up on Sunday. For anyone interested...

    Anyone have a Microsoft 365 Key they can send me?

    Trump is anti-gun.

    This thread started with the bump stock ban. IMHO they're just stupid toys, but if that's what you want to hang your hat on....
