and the DOW is booming.. its sitting at 44,700+ right now.. the all time record high close was 45,014.. Its very possible we'll see a new all time high within the next couple of weeks if things continue to trend the way they have been.. which should mean everyone's 401Ks, IRA, etc are booming...

the $15 saw in question :) picked it up, brought it home.. hit it with a can of compressed air and then wiped it down with some degreaser... put a little fuel in the tank and a little bar oil in the reservoir.. just a couple of pulls on the handle and it fired up with zero issues.. I figured...

Pretty common among most schools I think… Professors in every degree program I’ve ever attended got their masters at one institution and their phd at a different one… way back in the late 90’s I asked a professor that I’d taken several classes from why this was common and why they were pushing...

Jonsered still command pretty high prices whenever you see one pop up at the various auction houses, eBay, etc.. I’m not sure why husqvarna discontinued the Jonsered lines.. by all accounts they were popular and had a good piece of the North American market at a time that Husqvarna was running a...

Friedman and Becker are still cited routinely in both BBA and MBA coursework. They are definitely noteworthy. I find it very cool that you were able to study under both of them directly. Im a bit jealous if Im honest about it :)

Just added another Stihl to the now growing collection.. I might have found the deal of a century on it.. I picked up a used MS180 16" residential saw.. dirty as hell, and missing a chain (easy enough to replace), but running just fine at an auction just outside of Dallas.. $15 plus a 12%...

That article is from April, when Musk was still aligned tightly with Trump and all of the left wing MSM was desperately trying to poke holes in Elon.. Notice that now in July, they’re all largely silent on Tesla? Also consider the author… he is CNN’s “bankruptcy” hit man.. about the only thing...

Correct.. they dont just give away their patents.. they essentially trade them.. and then use the tech they obtain through those trades to develop more patents.. and more tech.. which gets applied across multiple Musk entities (SpaceX, Boring, etc etc).. and the "open" pledge is also...

Tangible goods isnt how Tesla is making the lions share of its money though... It holds 3442 global patents across 1073 different patent families.. and is filing for new patents on an almost daily basis.. its patent portfolio has a current value of $4B.. some estimate that the patent value...

Just bringing this back up to say... its been about 6 weeks since this post.. Tesla continues to rise (its at $320 today), as does Musk's personal net worth (Forbes pegs him at $410B today).. All of those Europeans laughing at Musks demise, the fall of Tesla, etc.. and all of the leftists that...

I would argue that adding "Ivy" to a resume certainly wont hurt anyone.. and many of the most successful people I know have found a way to do so, even though many of them didn't earn an actual degree at an Ivy.. Having Cornell, Dartmouth, Brown, Yale, Princeton, etc (even Harvard and Columbia)...

You can honestly spend as little, or as much as you want.. price is going to be driven by a number of factors within your control.. the biggest ones are: Country you want to hunt in the lodge/outfitter you want to hunt with the animals on your "list" the amount of time you want to hunt Ive...

All 100% true... That said.. I agree with @Red Leg 's earlier post... were I pursuing an MBA right now, I'd probably be looking a whole lot harder at Booth, Kellogg, Wharton (also an Ivy), Stern, and a few others more than in years past.. All are exceptional schools (always have been), and...

Definitely not a super cartridge… but I think it’s fine inside 150 for deer and pigs… ballistically about on par with a 30-30.. I had a 350 legend AR for a while that I built specifically for pigs (low recoil, fast follow up shots, etc)… I ended up selling it to another member here that was...

Mine is the Christensen Mesa Titanium.. it’s got a little more weight on it than the Ridgeline.. but not much.. it’s 6.1 lbs empty.. As much as I detest muzzle brakes, this is the one rifle I don’t mind one one… it brings recoil down to roughly the same as one of my mid weight 308’s… I’ve got...

A close friend of mines wife was a staffer (policy) for Campbell for a few years. She is very much a centrist, but is also a registered member of the Republican Party. She’ll tell you that in today’s government Campbell would be a republican. He was a fiscal conservative (centrist) and pro 2A...

That may have been true in the early days of the cartridge… but isn’t true today.. Savage = 1:8 Remington = 1:8 Ruger = 1:9 Christensen = 1:8 Begara = 1:9 Fierce = 1:9 Gunwerks = 1:8 The only companies still going 1:10 that I’m aware of are Weatherby and Seekins…

I’ve been a lifelong fan of the 300 WM… That said, I’ll likely never fire another shot from a 300 WM… I’ve got a Christensen 300 PRC that slings 208gr Barnes LRX just over 3000fps, and maintains consistent .75MOA 5 shot groups… Everything the WM does, the PRC does a little bit heavier and a...

I’ve had zero problems out of any of my Leupold optics.. I’ve got VX Freedom, VX3, and VX5 scopes as well as a set of BX4 binos… all have been functioning perfectly since the day purchased…

Transiting Heathrow is a shit show… but once you get to your departure terminal and get settled in it’s not terrible… the terminals are always crowded, and finding seating in the public areas can be a challenge… but there’s good shopping, good restaurants, and the lounges are decent…

I think we should deport any non citizen (legal or illegal) for any Class A misdemeanor or higher.. They are a guest in our country (invited, or uninvited)… if you can’t abide by the rules, you need to go somewhere else.. For what it’s worth, most of the world will send you packing if you are...

I’ve got Talley QD’s on my 375 and my 416… every other rifle I own (with the exception of the MSRs and the muzzleloaders has Warne Maximas..

Foreign heads of state also get Diplomatic Security Agents from the State Dept assigned to their protective detail as well... and.. they are also allowed to bring their own protective agents with them too.. NYPD wouldn't get within 20 feet of the inner cordon of protection without getting...

The Weston on the waterfront is exceptional. We received Ritz Carlton level service…the hotel is in great shape.. the location is very convenient.. breakfast in the restaurant is extremely good.. and the rate we paid was very fair…

I don’t know if they’re the best price, but for 20ga 1oz loads for various shotgun sports, I really like Winchester AA… Some of the HS competitive shooters I used to coach shot federal 1oz and fiocchi 1oz.. but both of those were a littler harder to find in bulk around here (7/8 was/is...

I understand how it works... I didnt need an explanation... For what its worth my wife is an executive accountant with 30+ years of experience and Ive managed investment accounts and tax liabilities for companies with 9 figure revenue streams and 8 figures in cash assets.. Ive got a pretty good...

NoVA and Maryland and a little slice of PA are all in a unique situation... The Fed Govt exploded between 2001 and about 2005 and there simply wasn't enough housing available for all the people that flooded into the area.. both rents and mortgages went crazy in the area.. I had a guy that...

there are only 5 states that recieve more from the Fed Govt than they pay in historically... New Mexico, West Virginia, Alaska, Mississippi, and Montana.. these are all low population states by the way.. Every other state in the Union (including NJ) pays either about what they use or more than...

Lots of red herring arguments in that post.. What is middle class in any one place isn't middle class in another.. that's a truth all over the world.. the question to be asking is "why?"... Why does a 900 sq foot apartment in Manhattan cost more than a 2000 sq foot condo in Northern...

thats absolutely true... I lived in NoVA for a while myself.. but those outrageous housing costs are the result of outrageous state and local policies, programs, and taxes.. get rid of those policies, programs, and taxes involved with the design, build, maintenance, and ownership of private...

90 million doesnt include the greater Chicagoland area or many other major metro high cost of living areas.. it also doesn't factor in the consequences of poor city, county, and state policies that result in those outrageously high cost of living situations, which drive the higher wages, which...

We might be talking past one another... Im having a hard time understanding the above statement.. middle to high income families that are doing everything they can to get by? if middle income families cant pay the bills... is that because they are living above their means, or that the...

The population of NYC is 8.25M... the population of NY State is just under 20M... You cant really compare NYC to the entire state of FL as an apples to apples comparison.. Then you look at the land mass size of FL vs NY and where the population centers are (density)... 12% of NY State lives...

Sadly I doubt it… what’s been purchased is an 8-10 year reprieve I believe.. Hopefully the current supreme leader will be dead by the time they are combat effective again and their economy has recovered enough to start pursuing nukes again… and the next one won’t be quite as inclined to screw...

I disagree with both points.. I also came from that line of work, and while I was still young (not out of school yet), I also remember 1979 very vividly.. Your points about the Shah and how the people of Iran hated him are spot on.. the only people that supported the Shah at the time of his...

bread and butter work for 5th Group and certain units within OGA.. if the Iranians keep screwing around flinging missiles at US assets in the region, it wouldn't surprise me at all to find out a short time from now that there are partisan militias forming inside Iran that have mysteriously...

Ive got a M98 with one.. it really isn't any different than any other floorplate release IMO.. they either work.. or they don't (some have a reputation for releasing under heavy recoil.. others are I believe just as secure as a fixed (non releasable) floorplate.. without an intentional act from...

I completely agree.. What I was wondering was whether or not the Iranians create a situation that causes the US to block the straights for a period of time... (i.e. start flooding the straights with their small attack craft, creating a threat to US warships and commercial traffic, etc).. That...

I think @Red Leg earlier post is accurate. Only about 10% of Chinese oil is Iranian, but 45% of their total oil imports come through the straights of hormuz (they're also purchasing oil from various gulf states that ship to them via this route). So they have a couple of problems right now...

Only about 10% of Chinas oil comes from Iran… but that’s still a very significant amount that’s not easily recouped from other countries… it’s about 1.1M barrels a day (China imports just over 11M barrels a day in total)… Rough 20% of their oil comes from Russia.. now that Europe is buying less...

I hear what you’re saying.. but until the American people start making better decisions during elections, what you’re wishing for is an idealists pipe dream I’m afraid… Just last week a US Senator purposely disrupted the Homeland Security Secretary during a briefing and had to be forcibly...

I worry more about ticks at my deer hunting property than I do South Africa… I do treat all of my bother other than underwear with permethrin when traveling to RSA… but that’s about it.. I use permethrin and also douse myself pretty heavily in off repellent when walking the E TX woods… and...
