What a beautiful day on the range this morning.
Maggie’s What's Your View II

Some long range practice with the ladies yesterday. Mirage was horrid. The 1890 target was tough to see
Nice! The best I can do within a 1 hour drive is 1035 yards, it has got to be tough to spot misses in that terrain.
Not the best feedback for missed there. Simple solution is to just not miss lol
Step back to the early 60's with me for a few moments.
My Dad had a friend, Willard. Willard had lots of ideas, but not much money. Dad didn't have a lot of money, but he could afford a few extra dollars. Willard thought they should start reloading, his 8mm, Dad's. 270. "Just think of all the money we'll save ,Bill!" Dad said O. K., they opened up the Herters catalog and went to it, Dad being the majority stockholder.
Suddenly, Willard and family, which included my best friend, moved to California. All that gear sat until the mid 70's, when I took up the torch. This measure is the last item from that 60's order I used exclusively.
The 55 has since been supplemented with a Harrells and the Chargemaster. However, there is still occasion to set up the 55 because, well, because it's still a damn good piece of gear. It has thrown 1000s upon 1000s of charges and is good for many more.
My two littlest grandkids and their folks were here for the weekend, left a few hours ago. The house is terrible quiet again. Maybe that brought on this trip down memory lane, I don't know. That and the fact that Dad is 93 and not doing all that well.
No matter, thanks for your patience and thanks to those who provide the space. No, the 55 is NFS.

Apparently getting “ducked” is a thing now? I was minding my own bidness while at pinkberry, and when I come out, this is on the heep
My mannnn, is that some antiseeze on those freshly wire brushed studs.
Brohmace, yo.
I always do that except w the copper version, it lasts longer.
I pulled a rim off my old welding truck, that has been parked for 17 years. I was like, get the fuck out of here, that copper was dry, but the threads were perfect.
Lawlz. My copper can be gone. Only silver on hand. I use the anti-seize on nearly everything. If not that, it is some type of loc-tite.
Put red on those stud shanks.
Gotta treat the hardware proper.

A tube of the copper lives in my range bag. I use it on TBAC brake-mount suppressor threads, and AXMC barrel threads. In the “regular” world, I put it on anything I suspect may be tough to remove down the road. For instance, ESPECIALLY the master pin on a set of dozer tracks (ask me how I know).

Seems to share a day with a few good men. He was born on the one year anniversary of my wife’s grandfather passing.

All good, he made his peace with his maker and went happy. He made sure we understood that. He was 92 and had seen more of the world than most people get too. Sure miss him around the house though, so part of me doesn’t like that last sentence either.
We like what we like... I dont need ZCO... but I buy them
You're trolling us with that Templeton, right?
It's ethanol with flavoring added; its basically the Swisher Sweets of alcohol.
I still see that Templeton hiding in the back behind the faucet, in shame.
Im bettin Geno has a better palate than the dude who cant even pick a knife....
That’s actually a decanter of “truth serum”
Dumb shit tried to flip a u turn on a small two lane road. Didn’t go to well for him.
Just herd when they tried pulling him out they dumped the load lol!!

If that has ever happened, I've never heard it. Not that it hasn't, I'm just not aware.
If somebody were to take destructive action against a windtower, it could be considered a act against the power grid, a act of terrorism. All the Fed agencies could get involved. Felonies, harsh judgements, it would get really ugly.
I'm hoping that even the dumbest teenage boys know better. Stick to signs, better than 10-20 bunking with Bubba.
30 years ago, one of our genius plant employees used his deer rifle to shoot an oil filled transformer in an attempt to avoid Saturday shift. He was dumb enough to talk about his plan to be off that didn't work. 4 hours later, when the lights went out, the police were quick to arrive. We never saw him again.
Shooting transformers and wind turbines..... we really do have some stupid apes in the gene pool.
Is the coffee shop in the bank still in business?
If so, tell Ilona (Cameron) Macdill I said hi.
She was married to my friend Tom Macdill.
Freakin perfect timing!!! That blast is awesome!
