Other than knowing where Newsome's skeletons are buried, Harris doesn't stand a chance. Much as I despise Newsome, he's formidable and would crush Harris. It wouldn't be much of a fight.

The proposed FairTax, or some facsimile of it, makes the most sense, well more than an income tax does - if for no other reason than the cost of compliance + enforcement is trivially small. That would save us all a non-trivial amount of money annually. There is no real way to game a...

The federal government doesn't have a revenue problem, it has a spending problem. Figuring out a way to tax the "underground economy" doesn't solve the problem, won't even make a dent in the problem. Our legislators and executives have been reckless for decades.

The inmates are running the asylum. https://www.racket.news/p/magic-monetary-theory-goes-primetime?utm_source=post-email-title&publication_id=1042&post_id=144720339&utm_campaign=email-post-title&isFreemail=true&r=1b256w&triedRedirect=true&utm_medium=email

As somebody else pointed out, it's usually the pancreas, but it could be the thymus gland as well (located in the throat). I don't believe I've ever had thymus. Pancreas is usually fairly fatty, often a higher fat content than a prime ribeye. Considering all the fat, you'd think pancreas...

I'm going to be in Jo'burg for an extra day on my way up to Limpopo in August. Any gun stores you know of near OR Tambo (my hotel is really close to the airport) that would carry Rhino bullets? Looking for .423, 400 grains.

It pays to measure what the max COAL is. Most 9.3x62 have a really long leade. In mine, practically every bullet I measured would seat as far as as a max COAL of about 3.38". SAAMI spec on COAL for 9.3x62 is 3.29" I just did some load development for 286 gr A Frames, set them to 3.32". With...

Same as the SD of any other bullet of that caliber and weight. 250 gr is .267 285 gr is .305 300 gr is .320 SD is a function of weight and diameter. Length is not part of the calculus.

If you find yourself needing to disassemble the bolt, call me. While it is a Mauser, disassembly/re-assembly isn't quite the same as a conventional 98 or 96.

Let's just say I have an interesting YT feed and leave it at that. :D

For those of you in Houston, if you want to give sweetbreads a go, El Tiempo Cantina serves them as an appetizer. If you like cooking, you can get them at Fiesta or 99 Ranch Market. The great thing about buying offal is it's cheap. If you think it taste like ass, you can always throw it in...

I'm with you. Collards and mustards, sauteed up with some venison sausage...I imagine that's what'll be served in heaven. Chitlins are what I imagine will be served in hell, what I imagine hell to smell like. Burning sulfur? Yeah, that's pretty awful. Chitlins are way worse.
