I started crying at the opening credits of Lone Survivor. Michael Murphy was my son in law's cousin. I never met the man but I can tell from the burning hole he left in his family he must have been a great guy. It was supposed to be my SIL, husband and I to go see Lone Survivor but my SIL...
I just came down from a decade in Alaska and grew up in NY just outside the city...Indiana is much closer to Alaska especially it seems to the south. The state has either grown more gun friendly since the 80's or the southern end is more gun friendly than the north. My opinion since being...
Has anyone seen Murph the Protector? The Bio of Michael Murphy. I bought it two weeks ago on the way home from Lone Survivor but haven't been able to bear watching it yet.
People disappear all the time in Alaska. They just found this lady. Probably not related but in that time period the cops knew they had a problem child in that area. Two woman reported (in separate instances) that a guy attacked them on the stretch of highway between Girdwood and Indian. Israel...
A lot of great advice here. If you decide to winter camp away from your mom's acreage wear your cartharts or whatever your winter day gear is while driving. Turn down or or the heat in the vehicle. That way if you go off the road you will be dressed for it. Especially true if you are knocked...
The advice about what you use to carry it and fidgeting is great advice. We used to play a game at work while we were bored...who was carrying. Often the only clue was constant re-adjusting.
Once you get the right gear wear it around the house unloaded but tell yourself there is one in the...
Many VA's require vets to take all their pills in with them to visits. Not just empty bottles and not just opiates. I have always refused to comply...I am not going to be a willing victim. I have seen elderly vets in wheelchairs at Indy with a bag of meds sitting alone while their child, spouse...
I grew up just outside NYC. Enlisted at 17. In my early 40's I started carrying 24/7/365 after an incident. At first I felt just like you did...even though it was only a little Beretta Tomcat I felt like I was very obvious...I wasn't. Now I feel naked without a gun.
An elderly Eskimo told me...
Alaska is the king of the coffees state hands down..and for ice cream but I can't explain that.
Coffee kiosk in every parking lot. Every flavor, every new fad way of serving and processing it.
What else could you expect from a state that is cold and dark all winter?
Now it's go north for...
I think it is a great idea. Maybe put a couple of sticky's by category for other good deals.
I found a coupon from Harbor Freight for their 45 watt solar panels system for $139.99 and it is good until 9/14/2014 Item #68751/90599 Coupon #55524981
And it can be used over and other again until it...
The term civilian does not offend me at all...in fact the vast majority of cops are civilians whether they realize it or not. It is only in recent history to we tell them they are not except in war time.
3.2. Civilian Law Enforcement Official. An officer
or employee of a civilian agency...
I know I am new here but it appears to be a recurring theme in multiple threads. They do not seem to be able to discern good cop from bad cop.
The Blue Wall is mortared heavily and standing strong.
Every LEO on that team should face trial. As should the judge and prosecutor that were involved...
Interstate is great...if you want to add to battery life and performance in the cold add a battery heater and oil pan heater and plug it in whenever the temps drop.
