    Damn. I really want one, but I already have a Colt .45 and the weight is the same. Is it this one?

    Speaking of hogs, I’m outside all the time in NW Florida and have never seen one or evidence of them. OK, two came to my house, apparently lost, but I’ve never seen them in the wild. Horror of mine as a sounder would level my camp in the boonies. Where they at?!

    I have a .45 Hi-Point carbine. Flawless operation, had never malfunctioned, weighs 10-pounds, impossible to clean. Along with other… odd design choices.

    Hi-Points are what you get by giving a group a very smart engineers a list of things the product needs to do. A group of engineers that has never seen an actual gun.











  • You’ve already got excellent advice, but I’ll add this to maybe save you some money.

    Since you’re replacing it anyway, go ahead and yank it and get the part number off the back. As Septimaeus said, it’s likely used on several laptop models. Vendors always charge more when you’re searching for the laptop model. Search instead for the monitor model. Also, try eBay and other vendors. You might be surprised at the cost differences after a little shopping.

    I’m neither introverted nor extroverted, but I do shit alone every day!

    Found a new trail to hike by my house, along with the miles of “wild” trails in the woods here. Just got back from a 4-mile.

    Yesterday I kayaked a couple of miles in the local swamp. Saw beautiful things!

    Also, I lay in bed and read everyday, even if my wife is there. If she wants TV? Ear plugs, I’m basically alone.

    EDIT: Forgot to add: I found these things to do simply by poking around on Google Maps, seeing what was around me. Not “official” places, just looking at geography. It’s free.





  • Alive he can go down in ignominy and we can move past him. Dead, he would be a martyr and would never leave America’s conscience.

    I was a toddler when Nixon went down, but I heard what my parents had to say and combined that with what I’ve learned of history. Nixon was very popular, but once he went down he was like Voldemort, the one who shall not be named.
