  1. I was never into planes but I think I built about 25 WWII War ships and my favorite was the USS Arizona because it was still at the bottom at Pearl Harbor. I think that might be why I joined the Navy when it came time to serve. I was proud of the replica of the PT109 I made also. Don't know what ever happened to my collection when we moved south.
  2. Well Pearl Harbor took an hour and 5 minutes nd 9/11 attack lasted 35 minutes so no telling what can happen in a month and I do agree. Trump needs to be doing Trump things and not worrying about Games. Let the people that do game stuff to take care of that.....
  3. Go this in an article this morning and thought I would post it for any game players we may have here: The back end of that app really is a Trojan horse for everything on your phone: Your emails, your text messages, your photographs, your social media posts, your browser history, even your keystrokes and your location data — all of that gets vacuumed up by the TikTok app and sent back to servers in China
  4. I'm sorry you have had the issues with the Bersa's that you have had. I own 5 at the present time and I think 3 of them I have put over a 800+rounds down range with out an issue or FTFire or FTFeed and the other two I have sent at least 300 rounds down range with no issues. I carry one every time I go out away from the house with complete confidence.
  5. Join the GOA as this are doing great work for gun owners. Do some research about the GOA and you will probably like what you find!!!
  6. I have been debating about whether I will pay my dues to NRA this year. I did send in my dues to GOA as they seem to be a very good organization and working very hard for 2nd Amendment and the Constitution. They have been fighting the red flag bills as they pop up in different states!!
  7. Thank you for that wonder tribute to all of the men & women that have died protecting our great nation and to one young man that was able to make a grumpy old man need a box of tissues to finish watching it. I know his father is very proud of his son!!!!
  8. I can't watch it because I don't have a program that it requires to run it!!!
  9. I guess maybe it is because I have never actually sat down and thought about this problem until recently but I must agree we do have a serious problem that needs to be addressed. I don't feel that all the protests and rioting and looting is not going to solve what is going on! If anything it is going to make everything worse.(opinion) Marin Luther King said it best when he said if we are to be accepted as equals, Violence is not the answer. I know I am not a smart man but not a dumb one either. I guess I have not paid enough attention to this problem because I never considered being white as a privilege and was just part of life. I am beginning to learn more as people explain things in ways I can understand better. I will pay much more attention in what little future I have left.
  10. To try and answer your questions simply existing is not against the law so no I have not.
  11. Well I guess it does give people jobs and keeps people wonder what they might find up there so I guess it does have a few positive benefits.
  12. My question is how many people actually feel that there is such a thing as white privilege just because a person is born white? I have never given thought to my being privileged because I was white! I was not born with a gold spoon in my mouth and my father and mother both had to work to provide for me and my 3 brothers. We lived in a suburb of extreme west Cook County and when I got old enough old work bagging groceries and toting them to the vehicles I went to work. My older brothers also worked odd jobs to help our parents out. I have worked hard all my life and when my sons were born they had the necessities and once a little something for a surprise and my wife worked once the boys went to school. We never got any public assistance and worked for everything we got all our lives so where does the White Privilege fit into my life at. When I was working there was also another bag boy and he was black and we became good friends and worked well together and attended school together.
  13. Well I can't watch it cause I don't have Netflix but it sounds interesting for sure!!
  14. Who else has seen the debate/discussion between Oprah Winfrey and Ted Cruz?? If so what is your opinion about it? It raises a question that I have never thought about till I read the article. https://www.foxnews.com/politics/ted-cruz-oprah-white-privilege-comments
  15. I wonder what the 3 guys were doing in that picture of them at the warehouse before the explosion. It was never explained what they were doing there. Could they have been terrorists planting a device that detonated the stuff from remote position after they got a good safe distance away?
  16. I couldn't agree more buddy. The people in China have been wearing masks as long as I can remember. They know not to trust their government either..... I wish everyone that gets them would take them to their local health departments so they can box them up and mail them to the Government office in China!!!
  17. The more time you spend on the porch the more use to you they will get and soon they won't pay you no mind unless it's a new bird. I have a buddy that has a covered deck and has 10 feeders hanging all the way around it and it doesn't matter how many people are on the patio sitting or walking around there is always a bunch of birds buzzing around the feeders and there is times that 5 or 6 birds will come wide open right down the middle of the cover patio between and around people just like we ain't there. He goes thru 100+ lbs of sugar a summer. He buys bags of 40 pounds at Sam's. He has a small refrigerator on the patio and his wife keeps it full of food for the birds.
  18. About 12 years ago I learned something about them that surprised me. I went out on my patio back where I use to live and found an injured bird on the concrete and I picked it up gently and cupped it in my hand and took it in the house and thought it might be thirsty so I filled a lid from a milk jug and put it in front of the little guy and he was not bash full at all. He drank till I thought he was going to explode. I began calling people to find out where I could take him to get him help. I finally called the TWRA to see where they took injured wild animals and they told me to take it to Waldon's Puddle in Bordeaux so I called them and they told me to bring it up. Long drive but well worth it. They took him down to the examining room and checked him over. They said his wing was injured but not broken so I gave them a donation and they told me they would sent me updates on his case. About a month into it they send me a video of him in the flight net that was where he was in with 3 other birds and his wing was about healed and they would be keeping him for two more weeks until the migration should be about ready to start. They sent me a video of him when they released him and he was well nd took flight out of the lady's hand and was gone. What I learned is that they are very trusting little critters cause when he was in my hand and I put food in front of him he ate it while in my hand and didn't even try to get out of my hand. I made him a small box to stay in with cheese cloth material and he ate out of that milk cap for 3 days till I could find him help and he never once tried to get out of the box when I would open it to put his food in it. I don't think they are as afraid of humans as many people think they are.
  19. It may be a new bird to your feeders but many times they are curious critters and will get right in front of you and study you. Also if your feeder levels are dropping faster there is a real good chance you have a lot of early morning feeders that will feed up early and then just pop in and out to snack all day. I have noticed over the many years I have been working with these birds that they do have a few certain feeding times and one is in the evening before roosting and the other is early morning and the rest of the day they fight over the feeders. I just had to fill 3 of my feeders that seem to be their favorites as I have to fill them more often.
  20. You will probably get more as I think they are just late getting here this year.
  21. I didn't always have this issue. It began after that truck hit me back in 78 and destroyed my body and they had to remove a few body parts such as my spline among other things and then the problem showed up.
  22. Well I will sleep better tonight knowing we still have 5 Billion years left!!……….
  23. Yea a test to see just how stupid some people can be and actually plant the damn things and spread some other dangerous thing from China !!!!
  24. Well in all honesty I didn't lose a minute sleep over that but I am wondering something? How do they know this is going to really happen about the 5 million years and How do they know it will still Not go Nova but still function another 130 million years and who is planning on being around to prove these people are correct? In all honesty and I hope no offense but I kind of think in all reality I think GOD will be in charge of what the sun is doing in 5 million years....JMHO
  25. And follow all that great food with a trip to ER. Now funny thing is I can eat Green Onions with zero issues and Doctors cannot tell me why but regular onions contain something that Green Onions don't...…………...
