    Optic for AR Platform

    Many years ago in a small town there was a bully. Stole peoples livestock, pushed people around. One night he pushed too hard and as it was told a fight broke out. He ended in a pool of blood. When the Popo showed up and interviewed the 30 plus people they all said the same thing. When the fight broke out I dove under the pool table. Nobody was ever prosecuted and the case was closed.

    loosing another Bashas

    I was always chief cook and bottlewasher. I made sure my kids got the healthiest food and did most of the cooking so I also did most of the shopping.

    loosing another Bashas

    For the most part I only buy meat there because everything else is expensive. Example. Ragu Alfredo sauce at Walmart is $1.66 and at Bashas it is $2.99.

    I had a friend who did something similar but bought 338 Federal's thinking they were 338 Win. He probably still has them.

  18. "watch him folks 'cause he's a thoroughly dangerous man" I have seen him many many many times in concert all the way back in 71 and then in 73 when he played with Marshall Tucker but he was well known and established by the 60's. He won the State Fiddle championship when he was just 12 years old. A true patriot.

    I have never noticed the FOV stated in degrees. It's always been how many feet at 1000 yards.

    Cali Gov penalties on hiring tutors

    It's just as bad in AZ and has been for 30 years. The system and teaching is all about the teachers who have little qualifications to teach and want accolades like they have a darn PhD. My kids went through the Mesa school system and graduated in the 90's and 2006 and 2008. If it weren't for us being involved and actually teaching them something practical that they were not getting in school they wouldn't have the knowledge and common sense they have today. There is ZERO need for a "Teachers Aid", especially when the only qualification is to show up and breathe. There is a reason why Arizona is ranked 49th.

    I installed the electrical for pools when I moved here in the 70's on a lot of his homes. I think they went for $30K new. 100 amp Cutler Hammer panels. The breakers would just fall out when I removed he dead front. Still, he made a lot of people homeowners. By the time I got here Maryvale was a very rough place to live.

    Yeah when most people hear New York they think of subways and skyscrapers. Long Island was largely agriculture and you would be hard pressed to find better soil conditions and with close to 40" of rain it stands to reason why there were so many potato farms. In 1947 a guy named William Levitt carved out 20 square miles and changed home building forever when he built Levittown. Those first houses were basically built in an assembly line onsite complete with radiant floor heating, many of those homes still have it in them today. They also came furnished with washers and dryers, not bad for $8,000. Today just the taxes on an original home are more than that a year with many people adding extensions and such in todays market many of those homes are sold for 40 times that amount with yearly property taxes of $12K or more. Newly married GI's eager to have a house would stand in line over night to get one. Not only were there homes built but also areas known as "Greens" where a row of stores were built along with a public pool open only to Levittown residents. Each spring pool tags were, and still are, mailed out and you have to wear it to get in. Basically a round metal ID Tag on a small bungee that you wear around the wrist or ankle. Crime rates were and still are some of the lowest in the nation but the cost of living now is high much due to high taxes but teachers are paid very well. I grew up in a neighboring town without access to a public pool but most people had above ground pools since back then most familes had from three to ten kids. If you drove down my street there would be 50 kids outside playing as our parents always told us to go out and play, just be home at 5 for dinner and after dinner when the street lights came on we had to be home too. Houses were never locked up and some people left the keys in the ignition. For 25 cents I could ride the public buss to Jones Beach which was about six miles away. We didn't have mountains on LI but the Catskills were just a couple hour car ride.
