    As much as I, and maybe a few of you, may not like it...there is no federal law proclaiming that English is the language of the land.

    While I can certainly understand and agree with the impact two first round picks can have on a team's overall talent, it takes a really great team to overcome mediocre quarterback play. In that list, I'd suggest the last handful of mediocre quarterbacks to win a Super Bowl were Nick Foles in...

    That's pretty similar to Marine ball, we played like that back in the 80s. Our Warrant Officer put a stop to it after he figured out we were trying to help our staff NCO get a medical discharge. Easily the most undeserving of the uniform POS I met in the Corps.

    Let's face it, at the higher end of each sport...you are seeing some of the best at that sport and it should be enjoyable to watch. Well, maybe not water polo. But Dana White is quite wrong in his perception of the degree of difficulty in scoring in soccer. Outside the U.S., soccer is easily...

    Drotto adjustment?

    Like everything else, your boat needs to "fit" the trailer. Walk on a bunk one time and tell me how much support that bunk is providing to the hull around the mid-point of the bunk. It's not, the bunks flex pretty easily on most trailers. In reality, the bunks support the boat pretty good for...

    Drotto adjustment?

    I have owned or used both going back nearly 40 years to when I was a teen. A roller trailer that fits your boat is the cat's meow. My current boat is a 2004 Lund Fisherman and it's been on a roller since day 1. No issues with rivets. Note, bunk trailer owners say the same about rivets...

    Any Birders here?

    Yes, the hammering on hard surfaces is exactly that, a mating call. Want him to quit, you will have to either shoot him or get him a date.

    WTFE! Learn how to trailer a boat and you'll never go away from a roller trailer again.

    I am lighter than what I am made of, and about 90% of me remains unseen. What am I?

    More CWD NE ND

    To be clear, there's nothing in the article that says anything about these guys eating squirrels, much less squirrel brains. Neither does it say they consumed venison from a deer that was known to have CWD. What the article does say is "In 2022, a 72-year-old man with a history of consuming...

    You misspelled frustrating. Older boat motors are easy to get to run, not so easy when it comes to getting them to run as intended. They just always seemed to have their own little quirks. As far as the milky appearance of oil coming from the exhaust, unburned oil is not unusual but the milky...

    Baltimore bridge collapse

    I see now where the ship's owner is trying to get those who shipped cargo on the doomed passage to pay a share of any costs associated with salvage. I'd be unhappy if my taxi driver wanted me to pay for his accident. Which, by the way is possible/expected in some countries.

    Outdoor Playsets

    IMHE, these playsets are rarely used as often as the parents who paid for them were expecting. Not saying your kids won't, but I know of several that simply sat unused for the most part.

    More CWD NE ND

    Since CJD affects about 500 people a year in the United States, what are the odds that two friends would randomly develop CJD? I am going to guess it's not zero, but I am also going to surmise the chances of two friends randomly developing CJD are not very high. Remember, we have something...

    The actual answer should be air. Now, how you get the air into the barrel is the big question. Holes work, as would a balloon of sufficient size tied to the bottom of the barrel.
