If it really happened according to the article, there was an altercation in the restroom, then later it restarted at the food court with the attacker bringing a friend. If that is what is determined to be the truth, then I'd say it was justified. If they prove that the altercation never ended...

Great offering Bear Paw. My two sons are all kitted out, my grandson is a few years away from his first hunt, so I'll let those with more immediate need enter this one.

Grilled it's Pacific salmon, fried it's walleye or cod, but the only fish I've ever had that I wouldn't order again was some scrod. I've enjoyed every other type of fish I've had, not matter how it was cooked. One of my most memorable meals was in Barbados. They have a bunch of shacks right...

When I was a coach on the rifle range in the Marines we would hunch down behind the shooter with binoculars and you could watch the bullet all the way to the target, even calling the general placement of the hit before the butts displayed the spot. Also shooting the 8" howitzer, standing right...

The .30 Carbine Blackhawk is about the only Ruger that is still on my bucket list, (well, maybe a #1 in 45-70 or 45-90). I like to take a companion pistol when I'm hunting, and I'm thinking this year to take my vintage IBM M1 Carbine. I know that it is a little underpowered for deer, but I'd...

I was driving around Millington, TN when I was stationed there around 1987 with a couple of guys in the front of my old Chevy truck. Just cruising the back roads in that part of TN and a car came up fast behind us with his brights on. I kept changing my speed and turning random corners but he...

I've been using the Kamada from Oklahoma Joe's for a few years with very good results. It's very much like the Big Green Egg, but red instead of green. I love that it uses lump hardwood charcoal and it is very easy to set and maintain a proper temperature. When just cooking for me and the...

I've always figured that my time at home is worth a certain amount, and that's gone up through the years. If I could have it done for less than my time is worth, then I'd have it done. Sadly though, I'm just about always cheaper than anyone else and I almost always end up doing it myself.

While I've replaced brake fluid before, it was always based on condition, not age. Quick poll- Everyone else reading this, reply with a yes or no, do you actually replace your brake fluid every year? Or even every two years as the standard seems to be?

That only works on some vehicles. I recall using that on some GM vehicles from the late '90's and early '00's. Buicks and Pontiacs if I recall correctly.

This was in a 6-year-old car with barely 60K miles on it. The calipers and brake fluid still look close to new. The piston was easy to compress back into the caliper, just at the end I tightened the clamp a little and that's when the clamp came apart. I just thought it made a good picture...

Kind of messed up that above reply, expand to see it all.

This was a 2020 Escape, so I did have the electronic parking brake disengaged. If you don't you can't depress the caliper at all. This one was all the way depressed when the clamp snapped. Most of us don't "want" electronic parking brakes, but in newer vehicles, which I like to get for my...

Let me answer a couple of the unnecessary comments here: The "little extra twist" I gave it was just to hold it tight. Of course it was unnecessary, but there is no way it was enough to break the clamp. It should be impossible for someone to be able to break a C-Clamp twisting it with the...

Just trying to compress the caliper piston on my wife's car this weekend. Got it all the way in and put a little bit more pressure on it and the clamp just popped apart. Been moaning about Chinese hardware for a while now, finding a lot more screws and nuts not going together or twisting off...

If you don't think this is a thread-worthy deal, why would you spend time replying to it? I know you didn't spend time reading the whole thing or you would have seen that by far most if it wasn't whining at all, just recounting different experiences. Perhaps your time would be better spent...

No waiting period in WI, just an on-line background check that takes normally around 5 minutes, although I've seen it take as much as 30 minutes. The big-box stores have the electronic forms that take 6-7 minutes, while the smaller shops still use the paper forms that take 2-3 minutes to fill...

I like mine with lettuce and tomatoes: Heinz 57 and French fried potatoes: Big kosher pickle and a cold draft beer: Good God almighty which way do I steer: For my...cheeseburger in Paradise...... Any other Parrot Heads out there?

A few years ago I was a work event in Phoenix. The first evening there was a mixer of sorts, with a bunch of different buffet style tables set up with appetizer type foods. One of them was a raw oyster bar with different kinds of toppings. One of the toppings was labeled horseradish, and I've...
