    I think you misunderstood me. I’m not simmered up. I to know there is global warming (I don’t just believe it I know it). But the earth has experienced numerous warming and cooling periods over untold millions of years.

    I am starting to believe some of the global warming in N J.

    Wrong! Do a little research (leaving out your bias) and you’ll find what I stated is factual, no personal interpretation, no personal opinions. Possibly the last sentence may be open to debate by some.

    Older Boats

    A boat and motor from the 60’s is simply a project, a very expensive and time intensive project. That’s a 60+ year old boat. There are hundreds of unknowns with a boat/project like that. If you’re into doing an expensive project and have copious amounts of personal time then go for it.

    Pet surgery cost😮

    As far as CCL I believe it’s rare that you will ever have to worry about the other leg needing ccl Surgery. And of the several hunting labs I’ve had over the last 40 years only my one lab required it. The other leg was fine.

    Pet surgery cost😮

    I had the same surgery on my lab. It was expensive but he fully recovered and we hunted together for a few years after. I also left him at the vet for the first week after the surgery to start his rehab. It cost more but was worth it. Also get a ramp for getting in and out of your truck...

    Gas electric generator issues

    That is a very common problem with generators and other small engines that sit for awhile. Super clean the carb again and obviously check or replace the spark plug. Also when you put gas in it use stabilizer. If you want to avoid that problem in the future, do what I do. I start mine once a...

    Best EDC pocket micro nine you KNOW of?

    Not a micro mini but my edc is a Glock 19. Plenty compact to conceal on your waist or put in a pocket. The micro mini’s are a little small for my hands, I just can’t get a comfortable grip. But no matter what Glock they one one of the most dependable guns on the planet, they always go bang.

    Boat to store inside garage ?

    I had an 19’ outboard and a 20’x20’ garage. With the outboard and the trailer tongue it was longer than 20’. I got a trailer with a swing tongue. Then I backed the boat/trailer into one side of the garage and then pushed the front over so it was angled. The whole thing was about 22’ even with...

    Went electric

    I personally don’t care if a person likes and wants electric or gas. I figure it’s a personal preference. Which ever one floats your boat, which ever one works for you, go for it. What’s drives me crazy and makes me angry is when the government dictates which one we can use. Here in...

I have 20 Magpul mags for each gun. They are composite not metal but they are tough and indestructible. I saw a video...

    Whats the deal with "High Milage" conventional and synthetic motor oils???/

    ^^^^^ This. And higher viscosity to reduce metal to metal to metal wear. I have never used it. I go mostly by the motto if it ain’t broke don’t try to fix it. The most important thing you can do is change your oil at regular intervals and use the correct viscosity. What ever oil I use in a...
