    Has anyone dealt with leg weakness after sciatica? Googled it, but general answers. Had a severe bout for 20 hours on Monday of this week and now have about 50% leg strength in my left leg. I do have a doctor appt. next week, but curious what others may have experienced for muscle strength...

    Raises went into my retirement fund. I figured if I could live on "x" per week, then put it away for the future. Bonuses paid off debt and bought a few toys along the way, but no extravagant spending, vacation homes/timeshares, etc. Sometimes I think we should have "smelt the roses" a bit...

    @Hobo Hilton what are your thoughts on Ramsey? I found him a few years ago. I find that many of the things he is a proponent for align with what I have done over the years, with the exception, at times, vehicle purchases. If the spread of interest rates paid on a vehicle loan vs expected...

    Ok, you raised my blood pressure again. Every time I hear the "trust funds" are going to run out I get pissed. The money to fund illegals, Ukraine, welfare, etc. always seems to be increasing, no problem finding that, yet the money we paid in "may not be there...". I'm 63.5 and plan on...

    Shouldering and AR or anything has not been an issue for me. NOD's? No idea. Magnum recoil? I gave up on them years ago, my body was not cut out for it. Also, not they are not needed for anything I hunt or shoot (up to elk size) as I'm picky on my game shots, plus I have an upper neck issue...

    I've been using this reticle, as it seems to keep the reticle size proportional to the animal when the "power" is increased. Some of the reticles act like FFP and some like SFP in regards to keeping the reticle relational in size or not. Experiment on a target and you will see what I mean. I...

    Gotta love it when you can ice fish in slippers, but are they biting?

    Right. I could not contribute until I retired this past summer as I had health insurance thru my employer. Now, I have only 2 years that I can squirrel some tax free money from my IRA into my HSA before I turn 65 and qualify for Medicare.

    Another 9" so far today on top of this 13" that arrived Tues-Wed night. 50 mph wind gusts tonight. Sunday the bottom drops out, 11 below and then 14 below on Monday night.

    That's too funny. We have also been inside all day, but due to snow. About 8" today so far on top of the 13" Tues-Wed nights. She suggested we do a puzzle also, but I was able to distract her with other activities and have avoided it so far...

    The line in that song (where are all the people going?) reminded me of thoughts I would have when traveling for work. Flying into Seattle, Denver, Minneapolis, etc. in the evenings. Seeing the lines of traffic headlights, an endless string flowing. I'd think, "There go all the worker bees"...
