Re: Remington Factory Closing

I grew up in upstate New York and have family that worked in the plant. In spite of the bankruptcy sale it was thought that the 870 would remain in Illion. Granted, losing the sandy hook case for marketing to young men was a kick in the pants, the State of New York has been working for years to make...

Re: Eye surgery

I'm usually pretty reluctant to offer advice on physicians and things medical but I will make an exception here. I had eye surgery done for cataracts a little over a year ago. Went with the new triple focal length panoptix brand lens. It focuses at 16", 24" and infinity. That's reading, co...

Re: Is this a roofing scam???

Shortly after Wilma the Miami-Dade, Broward code changed to require three tab shingles with six nails. The good news is that most suppliers, e.g. Johns-Manville etc offered 25 year life expectancy. The bad news is that any roof shingle is weaker after about 15 years. Insurance companies consider old...

Re: Marco Rubio

Of course, eventually the government will decide who is a terrorist and what qualifies as terrorism. Given how quickly (and for what political reasons) persons have been named domestic terrorists I would run from such a bill. For crying out loud, we have allowed the National Guard to be vetted for i...

Re: Server Move (Now URGENT)

I'm in for $25, no problem. Like others on the site, I'm also of the very old school. I have none of the electronic transfer capabilities and no such accounts. Post a snail mail address and I will use good old USPS to send a money order. For $25 I'm not worried about getting a receipt for contributi...

Re: Wife now has COVID

Get after the doctors NOW!!! Make them order regeneron (the stuff they gave the president). The drug is free. the feds are paying for it. It puts antibodies in the system immediately.

Re: Armslist

I am also of the thought that I wouldn't give anyone my bank account numbers. And, although I do enjoy looking, I've only bought a couple things through A.L. I enjoyed actually reaching and talking to the sellers. It also provides other ways to verify that they aren't scammers. I just resent the fac...
