Wayne Gretzky changed how hockey is played. He was that good.

I vehemently disagree. The beauty of a free market society is that it allows all individuals to behave in their own self interest. Thus the dispersed knowledge of society is used to create the solution of greatest value. Socialism of any ilk, believes that a few smart people in central...

I have hunted out of Maruru. You will need a jacket at night. If you ride up top the cruiser will be cold in the morning. Tipping is your call. I tend to be generous, a little to us is a lot to them. Maruru is probably the best of all my safaris. Enjoy and please share lots of pics with...

My great grandparents homesteaded in Ontario, Canada in the 1800’s. That homestead was the family farm I grew up on. A 3 storey farmhouse, 40’ peak hip roof barns raised in community barn raisings, hedges for field borders as opposed to fences. Every field ditched and tiled by hand...

Personal range. 6.5 PRC, 600 yards, sitting with bipod.

I’ve spent many hours at that club. Sorry we didn’t meet when I lived there.
