    Vikes or Eagles?

    The only disappointment I had with the game in Texas was that South Dakota did not make it. I cheer for them the whole game even though I guess it was fruitless before half with the turnovers. Maybe next year but if South Dakota had made it, it would of been one hell of a better game. db

    Identifying the year of a Winchester repeating Arm.

    dragon as I stated you can get the parts needed and probably the correct time period by using the internet if you want to get it back in working order. Just keep looking for the parts needed and looking for the place that has them. Not sure if a part from the new 73 would work. Yes may need...

If I shoot enough at a target it appears to be a shotgun pattern (cleaning black powder bullet is a bitch after shooting, may try some of that...

    Military question

    drafted in 69, spent 22 months with 10 in Vietnam. Have no idea then or now why the killing on both sides that I took part in. Just a waste and a bad deal. Maybe in the after life I can ask those who put us there why. Glad to get out and no thoughts of staying in. However, the service was...

    So we found a honey hole....now what?

    Not sure is there is a correct answer. Depends on many things that can change every day. Just use a little common sense if you want it for the future. And if you over hunt for today's satisfaction you know what tomorrow will bring. db
