    Gumption!!!

    Bravery is not the absence of fear, it is having the courage to face and over come fear. This young man has got a set of "stones". With any luck we will someday see him at West Point. We need people in our military with his "special" kind of gumption!!! It does not take any form of...

    What an idiot!!

    It is very hard to imagine that the "manboy" Barry could get more ridiculous that he as been in the past, but he has. We fly "intelligence missions" over Iran, using unmanned drones. Kinda like a top secret thing. Then we crash one. Then, and this is beyond stupid, King Putz the 1st asks...

    Power Problem

    I need help. My inverter cut out today. I lost all power to the fridge, computers, microwave, etc. I messed around and threw a switch on the inverter and power came back up. I have a cut off inside, connected to a green lighted switch. That switch and light is not working. If I run the APU I...

    OH SOOO Funny!

    We just got a load offer, over 12,000# paid UNDER $1 per mile. How funny is that? They STILL want to use load acceptance as a tie breaker for the 4 Star. How funny is that? :p:D

    Strange

    A strange thing happened to our QC around 9PM last night. It "shut down" while we were rolling, under load. It then came back up with the statement that it was "upgrading" then it rebooted and started up. We called FDCC and they were not aware of anything like this being planned. Any one...

    Parrot battery

    We own two Parrot BT 250 XT blue tooth sets. The batteries are shot on both. I cannot find a replacement. Parrot says they will replace it if I send them back to them, at $55 a pop. That is half the cost of a new set. Kind of a rip off. Anyone know of a replacement?

    At it AGAIN!

    The "peaceful people" of Iran are at it again, attacking another embassy. This time it was the British embassy. The "thug arm" of the Iranian government, radical students, pulled of this latest stunt just as they have in the past. Diplomacy is a waste of time with this bunch. Iranian...

    About 18 months ago Mrs. Layoutshooter and I ran a load from the Los Alamos National Laboratory in New Mexico, to the Jet Propulsion Laboratory, in Pasadena, California. The freight we carried on that load was a experiment that went up on this Mars rover. It was a special lazer that is able...

    Got back from up north yesterday. I hunted in a new spot this year. I saw 12 deer first day, all bald. Took a doe. That was the only deer taken by our crew. No snow until yesterday morning.

    Gales of November

    Yesterdays wind storms in SE Michigan were right on cue. The famous "Gales of November" are part and parcel of the history of the State. The most famous "victim" of the "Gales" was the Edmond Fitzgerald. She was an ore carrier that was very well known in the Detroit area. She was built in...

    Privileged

    I had the wonderful privilege to hunt with 3 fine young people today. 2 boys and one girl. All were 11 or 12 years old. I spent about an hour in the layout boat with the 12 year girl. She was riot to hunt with. She missed almost everything that came in. Her "style" of shooting, very slow...

    First hunt

    Got my first duck hunt of the season in today. Hunting out by the "Banana Dike" in a light SE wind. Lake Erie was very friendly today. Nice light chop. Not many birds down yet. What birds did come in worked the decoys PERFECTLY. I got two shots, two dead bluebills. Can't get any better than...

    Throw the bums out

    Interesting take on things. Time to throw the bums out Time's up: The Zuccotti Park vagabonds have had their say - and trashed lower Manhattan - for long enough. They need to go. Be it voluntarily - by packing their tents and heading off in an orderly fashion. Or by having th...

    Scrumpy and Western

    When I lived in England I became a fan of "Scrumpy and Western" music. LOL!! FUN! The "Wurzels" was the name of the band that is the finest example of this art form. Below are two links. One is called "I am the cider drinker" Sorry, I could not find "good" video of this song. The second is...

    Crime set to increase.

    ANYONE who would sell this "swill" is a danger to society. IF they are willing to help supply this poison they are likely to do anything that would harm others. This is a SAD day. Revenues for criminal lawyers must be down. They will be getting LOTS of repeat business soon. I am NO...

    "Liberal Art" OR

    Is this a new form of "Liberal Art" OR, just more stupidity from a city run by liberals? WHY? Why would they not spend the money where, at least on the surface, would make more sense? Is it any wonder that Detroit is broke?
