A month ago I was shopping at my local Kroger. Got finished in self-check and pushed my card into the reader. My left leg started shaking. I was on the floor for 15 minutes trying to control the shaking without any luck. 2 managers and 2 employees came to my aids as well as they could. One used my phone to call my daughter to come fast. Another called an ambulance. All was good by the ambulance arrived. They loaded me in, checked me out and found nothing wrong so released me when family arrived. The next day at dinnertime I left my computer stool to start dinner, my wife is blind and can't help. The tingling started again. By the time I walked to the door 8 ft away I couldn't raise my foot to the first step and my granddaughter helped me to my bed as well as she could. For 20 minutes my left leg was shaking out of control with the rest of my body fighting it, it won that battle. My granddaughter pressed my right foot against her leg and pulled top of foot and heel of left leg. Within seconds it was over. My wife and I take a lot of medical drugs and she thought I might have over or under balance myself by going to a salt free diet. Gave me one of her pills for that. I was able to cook dinner and enjoy the rest of the evening. The next day I made an appointment to see a GP to get service started for the next Tuesday. A week later my oldest son is headed my way so we can shop together. He texted that he was there and I headed to the front door to left him in. I made 3 steps before the shaking was so bad that I was on the floor. He picked my and we headed for my bed. Granddaughter had both feet as before. Son and grandson were rubbing/pulling on my left leg and my wife was helping me on the right side. Nothing helped for 45 minutes. Felt like an endless battle. It would slow down then start again. He said 5 miles to the hospital and we are heading there now. He went in for a wheel chair with my driver's license and insurance card and told them I was having chest pains. I was pushed through the door and into an exam room. CT was ordered up right then, As soon as test comes back the doctor on the monitor showed us a mass on the top of the brain right rear. MRI ordered. Within minutes I'm told I have a tumor putting press on my left leg control of the brain. Less than 1/16" movement forward could give me a stroke. I'm placed in ICU for the night. 10:10 that evening my visitor was from the best head doctors group in Memphis. For an hour he showed me all the returns from both test. It needs to come out right now. The bad thing is we can't do this in Desoto County, MS. Have to do it in Memphis. He leaves to check on other things for the evening. At 9:20 am he returns with some news. I'm in a Baptist hospital. If I stay I can get a transfer to Memphis Baptist in 4 to 6 weeks. If I go home it could be 8 to 10 weeks. St Franes hospital is 7 to 8 weeks. An hour later he finds out that Methodist hospital is tomorrow morning, 7/11. Have to check out of Baptist asap and get to his office and sign in as new patient. Reading over paper work from him I have restrictions from 4 to 6 months. Must pass test before each is released. Can't bend my head to look up or down for 4 months. Can't walk steps for 4 months. Can't drive for 6 months are the big ones for me. Granddaughter will have to scoop cat litter and change out dog pads since they are in the computer room 3 steps down. I'm preregistered for a new beginning at 5 am tomorrow, 2 days in ICU and 2 days ICU stepdown. I'll be back when I can.1 point

Here I have a beautiful S&W Model 63-3 chambered in .22LR. This firearm is in very good condition and has seen little use. Everything works as it should and it locks up tight. It comes with the original box, packaging and accessories. Please feel free to contact me with any questions. I’m located in East Nashville, thanks for looking.1 point

BEAUTIFULLY PRESERVED HOWA 1500 270 Bolt Action rifle. Incredible shape. Wood has a nice sheen and the blueing is excellent. Called the factory and due to their loss of early records, they could only give me a date range of 30-40 years old. Super clean and ready to go. It’s a bargain at $500. Any trades would be value for value. I have tons of pics and even close up video upon request. Must be legal to own. Text is best. 615-504-14911 point

I have a Taurus 692 that changes cylinders with the push of a button. Swaps .357 cylinder out for a 9mm very quickly. No problems so far but time will tell. Very convenient at the range.1 point

I was just bragging about Stallone taking a stance against hollywood's wokeness and now he's on my butthurt list too. I know it makes me a hypocrite, but Reynolds and Jackman are anti-gunners too, but I just handed over my hard-earned money to watch their movie. There's a few actors who've lost me forever (DeNiro, Jim Carrey, Will Smith to name a few), but that makes me a hypocrite too. They likely don't share any views most of hollywood don't also share. There's no winning this. I either give up all forms of entertainment or quit keeping score about what side they are on. I wish I didn't know what I already know. Ignorance would be bliss.1 point

I had a terrible experience with the DB380 when they first came out. Each time one would break, they sent me a new gun. After 3 guns failed my LGS gave me a full refund. I am sure their arms today are better quality.0 points
