I know a lot of you are way too young to have grown up reading Jack O'Conner's columns in Outdoor Life magazine. I first read one of his stories while sitting in a barber shop in the early 50's and I was hooked. My mother gave me a subscription and I couldn't wait for it to arrive in the mail...

Some of you have probably read my post about this years antelope/deer hunt in Wyoming and know about my encounter with a buck deer of a lifetime. A little background: my primary deer/antelope caliber has been 25-06 since the early 70's. I have killed over 100 deer & antelope using my Ruger M77...

Eating in a Mexican eatery and ordering a beer and getting it with a lime in it (good beer doesn't need any thing!), Drivers not using turn signals, cold coffee, junk mail, anyone wanting to sell me something over the phone........ I could go on and on and on! LOL!!!!!

I know I've posted before about the aliments we all suffer as we get older, but I couldn't let this just pass with out my comments. Had 2 total shoulder replacements 3 years ago that made me feel 30 years younger. Full range of motion and no pain, just issues with lack of strength from favoring...

I just tried to upload from my desktop a photo for a new post. Would not insert images says "file too large". Did the parameters for pictures that can be loaded change with the new webpage software? I've loaded this picture before with no problems.

How can I insert a picture from my desktop into a PM. It's easy to do on a regular post, but I am having a problem on PMs. Appreciate some help.....

50 years ago I was a young, inexperienced kid just out of college and landed a job at North American Aviation on the Apollo Program. I was working with all these old geeks, most WW2 vets.

I know we have a lot of fisherman here, so I want to know if any of you have (or use) one of the fishing kayaks. I have a 22' pontoon boat that is a bit big for some of our small lakes around here , so I am thinking about a kayak that is set up for fishing. I like the Perception Pescador 12.0...

Got here yesterday after several tiring flights from Salt Lake City. The flights were not so bad, but the airports really SUCK! I think the TSA person thought I was public enemy #1 or on the terrorist watch list. I have 4 replacement joints so I automatically go to the full body scan, then I got...
