Re: Indy 500

I remember watching Indy 500 on TV every year growing up in 70’s…along with World Series, Miss Universe, NFL/AFL championship, Kentucky Derby, Oscar award, etc. It was part of our culture in those days Out of all of those, the only one still flourishing is the NFL, obviously. The rest used to be bi...

Re: Here’s who might run for Florida governor in 2026

Of those choices, only Moody interests me in the slightest. She's a local girl with deep Florida roots. My family have done business with hers since long before she or I were born. Her voice though.... sheez. It's almost as bad as Fried's. Yeah, the best I can say is that she seems harmless enough....

Re: Indy 500

I'm guessing your 'culture' is different from mine. Open wheel racing runs in the veins of my family. I raced 1/4 midgets when I was 6 years old. Go-karts, micro and 3/4 midgets in my teens and twenties. I attended every local race event for decades. :) Yes, the culture is different from your famil...

Here’s who might run for Florida governor in 2026

Sure it's from the commie Sun-Sentinel, but still helpful. https://www.sun-sentinel.com/2024/05/26/heres-who-might-run-for-florida-governor-in-2026/ The 2024 elections are still months from being decided. But for some in Florida, 2026 is already here. With Republican Gov. Ron DeSantis set to be term...

Re: Indy 500

When I was a kid the Indy 500 was a BFD across the culture. Now, hardly at all. That's a real shame, since it is true Americana. But that America is slipping away fast. https://cms.indycar.com/ 350,000 people watched that event, live. Best attended sporting event. 18 races thru the year starting wi...

ATF enjoined over new private sale rule

Like with the initial injunctions over the brace rule, it only applies to certain groups.

Re: Best INDOOR ranges in Dade?

Well, there's Warrior Gun Range in Doral which is a few blocks from Dolphin Mall and Miami International Mall. It used to be Ace's Gun Range back when it was run by a bunch of psychos with serious attitude problems. A few years ago it was purchased by a man named Charlie who used to own a gun shop ...

Best INDOOR ranges in Dade?

Asking for a friend (yes, seriously, but I might go as well). It's been like 15 years since I have shot indoors in Miami, but a newbie is looking for a range down there, preferably one where there are handgun rentals as well. From some quick internet research it looks like Stone Hart and Top Gun bot...
