I like it!

For an actor who had such a good start, he certainly has become such an unbelievable jerk! Red October was so very good. Now his actions have clouded a good career.

You know, I'd take umbrage with that statement if it weren't so true!!

Hey old man! It's good to see you're still up and around! When you get some free time...give me ashout if you like.

Mac, as always thanks to you for your kindness to us all, and your offers of assistance on so many levels. Now...as far as people, or persons, that I truely trust with anything in or about my life...I have one in my family. One(s) that I could go to. Thought I had a couple more, but last few years have shown me that isn't the case. And before you bring it up, my wife is wonderful. She puts up with and cares for me. Just as I'm sure all yours do. But sometimes...your wife just isn't enough. At times, there are things I want to say, to speak of, that just aren't things she wants to hear or know of. That's sad, but true for all but the Blessed few with Godly, Sainted wives who are strong enough to hear all those secrets. Those fears we contain in our hearts and souls. Am I looking at this all wrong? Do you have things even your wife isn't privy to? Things you might have done that telling her of that would only bring hurt? We all need someone to talk with now and then. Many, if not most of us , are ashamed to admit it. It's not "manly" to need that. I did, and was blessed to have this man for help. before you ask...yes, he was and is a good Christian man who himself has had a hard life. His childhood sweetheart and wife of less than 5 years, cheated on him with one of his friends. Took their daughter to live with this man. It almost broke Mike. But it didn't. He had his faith and a wonderful sister to help thru the those times. Thankfully he has resumed his life and now has 50/50 custody of his daughter. I'll never understand how that happened though. He should have gotten full custody. Emotions are such a hard and private thing. Good, bad, love, or hate. All tug on us every day in such a way to make us want to cower in the dark at times. Our society has made it damn near impossible for those in need to reach out when they need help. We make fun of them, deride them, and ignore them. I mean that "we" in the sense of the human race as a whole. Not every person is like that but...Most of the human race are not worth the salt in our bodies. JMO, but I think we see that more and more each day. Thankfully there are some that are of such good as to worry about, and help all they can reach. Those are the few, the Godly annointed with heads and hearts for helping. We absolutely need legions more of them. Sorry for the dark words today, but we have to get them out sometimes to see and hear the good ones that are around us. After all, you can't fight what you can't see. And to see these things, these words as I say...they have to and must be grought out into the open. Into the light of day. Not hidden away in the dark...in the silence of our minds.

I think I know the guy hold his beer above water. Or one just like him!

Yes. Saw photos earlier. Shocked to see they were African-American brothers.

True. That does make sense.

LOL. Nope.

Really? I would have Said Lakewood/Old Hickory. Didn't know it was considered part of Hermitage.

The more I see of Lee, the sadder, and madder, I get. My wife even hates him now.

What's the code? I'll try again.

No, I sold the 365XL a while back. May try for another later on.

HUH? WHA'Dat?

Not sure about it being Cooper, but that pistol makes me think High Standard, or possibly Colt Woodsman.

Now 16.99

That gave me an involuntary tightening in the nether regions!

Really so few places to do this in current vehicles. Just not enough room for placement and acquiring it quickly. At least for my use.

I won't belittle Grand Torino's knives by calling them a "deal." They are quality pieces that GT offers to us at a fair price. I believe I remember his stating once these were origionally just a hobby. But as I see it, it has progressed beyond that to a retired man's new job. His work and quality exceed the pricing he gives us all. As the owner of a dozen, I can say this for certain. I can't speak from a knowledgeable knife collectors viewpoint...just as a person who appreciates the works of this good man.

I keep resisting. Mainly becasuse of funds, but looked at one today. I really like the X Macro!

I do. He's probably a liberal Democrat. That's pretty insulting ain't it?

It is impressive!

Wasn't able to get any at all.

Nope. I'm a mustard fan! LOL!

Well..glad I didn't risk going. Would have been a real problem for me, and a disapointment as well. Like all above, I miss the golden days of real Gun Shows! Where you could find hidden treasures and great guns; good people and some good buys, and could leave thinking...how am I going to explain all this stuff to my wife? I haven't had to do that since roughly 2011-2012.
