I told the surgeon that I wanted to be able to see the front sight and the 10 ring clearly. A shooter himself, he didn't need any further explanation. :LOL:

For us, Christmas is a glorious time but our joy has nothing whatsoever to do with gifting, Santa, or decorations. (y)

At any give point in time, 98% of the earth's water is salt water. Of the remaining 2% that is fresh water, 87% is locked up in ice near the poles. Of the remaining 13% of freshwater that is liquid, 12% exists as groundwater and only 1% is found in lakes and rivers. Of that 1%, about 21% of...

I used to love motorcycles. Cars are obviously fine. That thing looks like it offers the worst features of both. No! No! No! (n)

For myself, I access Senior Forums from the desktop in my study, typically at the start of my day. Only occasionally (like now) do I check back in at other times. I click on New posts and scan through about five pages of threads. If I hover the cursor over a thread title and just see a link...

That almost never happens to me EXCEPT at the gas station nearest me. It irritates me as well. :mad:

Skinless chicken breast has the highest protein to calorie ratio of any common meat. White fish like haddock and cod are second. I think of these as "smart man's meals". :)

Bottled "spring water" (aka plain old well water in a fancy bottle). Cans of air for cleaning electronics. :ROFLMAO:

Out of curiosity, I once bought a package of crumpets from Whole Foods. My impression was of dry. flavorless English muffins with far fewer "nooks & crannies" :sick:
