I have a bunch of assorted brass that came from a range here in town that closed up. I have probably almsot two 5 gallon pails of it and I am thinking about sitting down in spare time and going through the pails and seperating out all the different calibers into different cans. Now with that said, are there any calibers that would be wanted more than another for reloading. I figure it will give me something to do this winter when I get bored. I know the 22caliber is junk but just looking to find out what might be the more popular calibers..............

Not me, those Formula 1 cars remind me of Coffins on wheels..........JMHO

I guess since they knew who he was, the only way to stay alive was to turn himself in. He was lucky to escape the chase without getting shot that time. I hope he gets the needle. He deserves nothing less.........JMHO

Well I guess I have been a NASCAR fan as long as I can remember but I am slowly beginning to have issues with it as NASCAR in constantly playing games with cars, car owners and drivers. They have made so many new rules it is almost impossible for everyone involved in just 1 race car team to know and remember. I also don't like the 3 stage race programs. When I watch a race the only time I want it stopped is in case of a wreck. And this new 5 minute clock on working on a wrecked car before it is done for the day sucks too. I still watch it because I like to watch Kyle Busch race. He reminds me of the old Dale in a lot of his driving ways. Of course NASCAR has stopped a lot of that also. Back when Kyle first came to NASCAR if you were not as fast as he was and you tried to block him to keep him from passing you he would do the DALE on them and put a bumper to them. Do that today and you will get black flagged. Yea, a year or two more of that bull and I will quit watching them along with football .

I turned wrenches professionally for 35 years and was finally forced out by my doctor after my seventh hernia surgery and had all the mesh put in so turned the shop and business over to my son which is also an ASE Master techincian today. When I left the business after managing it for a couple years I told him it was his baby now and I gave him 2 three tear SnapOn boxes with side boxes hanging on each side filled with nothing but snap on tools. I had my Snap-On tool man give me a rough estimate about the value of the tools and boxes for insurance purposes and it tok him a week or two until he got back to me. Over the 35 years turning wrenches I had accumulated $197,000.00 dollars in tools and boxes and since then my son has spent almost 40 grand more just buying scanners and all the high tech stuff needed to work on this late model junk they build today. He specializes in Transmission rebuilds but they do about everything from the smallest repairs to replacing engines.

Back a year before Dale Earhart sr. was killed my son purchased a Mac brand Dale Earhart top of the line Tool box with the Stereo built in as he was a die hard Dale Fan. Right after Dale died he went back to using my old Snap On boxes that I used for 30+ years and purchased a nice Mac Cover for the Earnhart box and now it sits in his den in his house. He has had several really nice offers from folks wanting to buy it but he just smiles and politely says "it's not for sale"

I am not expecting a lot out of this! When you see the sections that is asking for donations that almost automatically says they don't have funding for a nation wide protest much less any major local ones. Also these folks have to remember it was Americans that voted Trump/Pence into office and now trying to find enough to remove them is going to be many times harder...........JMHO

Sorry to hear about the loss of your friend. It often makes me wonder what people are thinking or should I say not thinking about when most people know what society is like this day in time and will put themselves out there just to get injured or killed!

I had a frend that was trying to buy a Harley froma person on Craigs list and all he got for his Harley purchase was robbed at gun point in a mall parking lo full of people and the bad guy left on the Harley my buddy went to buy. I avoid Craigslist like the Plague............

This deal was in a public place all lit up and I would guess there was other people in the area. It was at a Drive in market on a fairly busy highway/ street. I think his mistake was going alone and with buying a vehicle there was probably a large sum of money involved..........JMHO

Well I don't know if I have heard of it before but Craigs List advertising turned deadly last night when a man got shot and killed during a meeting regarding the purchase of a vehicle. I was wondering how long it would take before someone would get killed during a transaction from that that organization............

When I first moved here back in 1998 there was a family about 5 doors down from me that had cats galore. Inside and out side. When they moved the house landlord had to spend 1,000 of dollars to get the smell out of the house and then had to remodel the whole inside of the house. When they moved they left about 40 to 50 cats loose in the neighborhood. I had cats every where. I called animal control and he brought me 5 cage traps and food to put in them and every day for about a month I called him to come and pick up the trapped cats. He would ask me how many and he would bring that many new traps and food for them. I think it took about 2 months to finally get them all caught except that big Yellow tom Cat that was to smart for a cage trap but not to smart to dodge a speeding bullet..........

Kasey laid claim to the back seat of the Jeep the day I brought it home and loved to ride and I would take her to a park down the road from the house and she wold chase all the squirrels up the trees and chase all the geese into the lake that were on the grass and then turn and look at me for approval and I would say good job and she was happy. I have her collar hanging on my rear view mirror so every time the Jeep goes so does she. Coming home is still hard not having her meet me at the door when I open it. So far I have had 5 people offer to help me find a Rescue Dog and some have even shown me pictures of dogs up for adoption but most if not all are Males and if I have another it will be another female. I have told them that if the time comes that I am ready I have a feeling the right dog will find me just as all the that mean tom cat I shot that was trying to kill Kasey 17 years ago did. The cat had stolen her out of a litter of pups somewhere and the animal control guy had been trying for months to catch the cat in cage traps all around my house but the cat was to smart to go in one. I bet the cat weighed 20 lbs. I put a 22 short in the cats hear and rescued Kasey from it. Had to bottle feed her because she was probably only a week or so old and I had no idea where her mother was. I called the guy from animal control and told him I had to cat and he needed to come and get it. When he showed up and saw the cat was shot he looked at me and msiled and said well, thats one way of doing it, loaded the dead cat up and left. It is against the law to discharge a firearm inside but he never said a word about it.

I didn't sleep to well last night so feel lousey this mornng. Then I got my coffee and biscuit and would normally be making her breakfast to but didn't have to. Then I turned on my computer and my wall paper is a picture of her and that just added insult to my already depressed feelings. I started to change it but decided not to. I will begin making changes in my house today and moving things around some. I need to get here memory Foam matress bed out of the livingroom which will open up one whole corner but then might put that off a while. Don't need the space anyway. I have had about 6 different friends of mine here locally tell me to go look at some of the local Rescue Dog Centers and get another dog. I don't think I am ready for that yet! I want to bring her home first and Vet said it should be Friday but could be Monday when I could come and get her. I was going to get her a very fancy urn but a friend of mine that is a finishing carpenter that builds things for a hobby has requested I let him build her an Urn. He knew Kasey and she knew him. So she will be coming home in a basic one and later moved to her final one when it is completed. I think he wants to do something nice for her out of respect for her. I know it may sound strange but Kasey played a roll in the lives of all my friends that came to visit often as she would interact with all of them while they were here so they were her friends as much as mine.

I have no doubt LBJ was in on it. He had made I think three different bids to get the White House and never made it. By going in on Kennedy's coat tails as VP and the arranging his death he would get the White House. He had plenty of help. All of the makers of War Machines had lobbyists pushing Kennedy to go to Nam and when JFK said they would no be going after what his advisors told him. They said it was a civil war and we had no business in it. The War Lobbyists were after Kennedy in late 61 to get involved and they knew he was not going to. Kennedy knew what hell war is. So they turned to LBJ with their plan and he would get the Oval Office and all he had to do was give them their war on the other side of the world. What harm could that be???? He would get the White House and all he had to do was sit back and let the War Machines do all the work. JFK's body was not even good and cold before Johnson was President! It is M.O. that they have kept all of the files on the Kennedy Assassination sealed all these years waitng for any one and everyone that were involved in any way to be dead so no one cold be questioned that might alter what the American People have been told all these years

Thanks to all for the kind words of support. My Vet said that Kasey was the oldest dog she has ever laid down in over 11 years of practice. She was a very caring Vet for sure. She hugged me a couple times and in one of the hugs she whispered Kasey was a very lucky dog to have you as her companion. WhileTommy (my son in law, William and I were standing out in the parking lot talking Ashley(my Vet) brought me something out I was not expecting. (see picture) I will be picking Kaseys ashes up and bringing her back home on Friday.

I use to go to a buddy of mine that was a barber and fellow fisherman and I always tipped him. After he had a stroke and could no longer cut hair my daughter had finished her schooling and she began cutting my hair and trimming my beard. Some times she is to busy to cut it and I have to call her and tell ere I'm beginning to be mistaken for a Big Foot and she comes by and cuts it....LOL

With deep sorrow I write this!! At 1:30 today Kasey went to the Rainbow Bridge to await my coming for her. I just hope when the time comes I am worthy enough to make that trip. She went peacefully and the Vet was very caring and it was without any pain to her what so ever. Today was the first time in 25 years + that I have come home and not had a friend meet me at the door. My heart is in limbo right now and I know a major adjustment is going to be required in my life. I can't say enough to all of my friends here that have shown me such great support through this time in my life. Again THANK all of you very much!! Doug aka Bersaguy

I do agree that it does not leave much wiggle room with the Oswald conclusion the way the Warren Commission concluded their report. It is just to simple in a few aspects. I have seen the camera films of the impacts made by the hits to Kennedy and I just can't accept the fact that with the actual kill shot exploding the back of Kennedy's head by all indications blowing part of his brains on the rear deck of the Limo would imply the impact was made from the front and there was a hole in the front of Kennedys forehead with Oswald had now view of when he fired hs 3 shots. Now with that said, we all know that a sniper never puts his gun barrel out of a window to shoot. That would explain why no one would see smoke from it and with a silencer no one would hear that shot either. I caught bits and pieces of an interview with one of the news programs like 60 minites or 48 Hours back a couple years after the assassination and it was supposedly being given in a country outside of the United States in a country without a way to get at him. He said he was paid $50,000.00 dollars to shoot Kennedy and to also Kill Oswald at the same time. He said Oswald was suppose to shoot sooner than he did and it would have made him visiable to police and assassin and at that point when the police began shooting up at Oswald he would be able to take out Oswald at the same time and it could be blamed on a lucky round hitting Oswald thus closing the issue right then. Problem was because the police and secret service did not know where the shots were coming from so not one of them fired a shot so he could not shoot Oswald. That was when Jack Ruby was brought in to silence Oswald with the promise that he would shortly be released from prison and snuck out of the country. The assassin's code name was Saul and he was from a foreign country so he would not be on anybody's radar or intelligence back then. That is another conspiracy but it does sound to have a little credience to it. The way he explained it would make sense to ahve an assassin take out Kennedy and Oswald both at same time...................JMHO

LOL...... That is one conspiracy for sure!!!!!!!
