My dad's destroyer, the Ralph Talbot DD390, was moored in the Boston Naval Shipyard during a storm. The Constitution broke loose from her mooring lines and drifted across the anchorage and rammed the...

A member of my basic training company at Ft Leonard Wood was one of the 997. None of the 10 men on the huey got the purple heart because although the ship was under fire at the time of the crash, the...

Thanks Lyman, that's close to my estimate.

What would be a good price for a carbine with an Inland receiver and an Underwood barrel that looks to have gone thru overhaul after the war? The parkerizing is in very good condition. If it was a...

I'm planing to start refurbishing my 99 Cheyenne this spring. I can handle everything except the body work. Completely redone those trucks are bring $25,ooo around my area. Although as much as the...

I just returned from a seven day stay in the hospital with RSV. It's been around for a long time but is hitting the older population now instead of just the young. If you're over sixty I advise...

Modern day actors whisper their lines while the mood music behind them swells. I miss the old days, you didn't have to wonder what John Wayne was saying.

I just pulled into Williams Az from MO. Set the cruise on 75 at the Ok border and had a nice three day drive. Only problem was that a lot of folks like to drive 85+ and the right hand lane of I40 is...

Update, I went to a little get together today, carry-in lunch with some friends. Those of us that play brought our guitars and jammed for a while. I related my experience of Friday night and one of...

No, it was cloudy all evening. I'll check it out again later this week.

These objects were not balloons. They were moving faster than anything I've ever witnessed in the sky. I've been around airplanes most of my life, I possess an Airframe and Powerplant Mechanics...

On nice warm evenings like tonight I like to sit outside in my lawn recliner and watch the planets emerge. Venus, Mars, Jupiter and Saturn were easily identified. Once it got dark enough for the...

I can't seem to come up with much sympathy for the owners of ocean going ships which remain moored in port when they have days of notice that a hurricane is headed their way. Put out to sea and get...

I've got an antenna, get around twenty channels, watch maybe three or four. Grit is on some of the time, old westerns. The wife is on it the rest of the time, if she's not on her phone. I've got a...

Large animal vets have a shot that will euthanize a horse humanely in a few seconds. I would never try to shoot a horse. Too easy to screw that up. Yeah, backhoe, I've got two buried in my pasture,...

Cut-n-Shoot Texas

I wear my original dog tags from Ft. Leonard Wood, 1966 on veterans day. That's the only piece of my uniform (although I still have all of it) that I can get into.
