Re: December 7th, A Day that will live in infamy
With the strength of the USA in terms of industry and resources, Japan lost that war the moment they started the shooting: it was just a matter of time. And they knew that before they launched the attack: "In the first six to twelve months of a war with the United States and Great Britain I wi...

Re: Remembering Santa Clause
Alabama has this guy named Nick, who brings joy to the common people every fall, and tends toward red and white costumes.

Re: Remembering Santa Clause
St. Nick also was known to leave money in the shoes of the poor left outside for them to find in the morning. Is this the origin of the Christmas stocking? More general information, if anyone is interested: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Saint_Nicholas For those interested, the state of Alabama cele...

Did anyone watch the Florida State game? That was truly weird, and painful.

Re: NCAA Football 2023
Georgia finally looked like they were firing on all cylinders. I hope they can keep that going for the rest of the season (and the postseason). I wonder who is going to take the Texas A&M job? Everyone is talking about Dan Lanning, but if I were Lanning, I'd stay at Oregon for several more years...

Re: What Spyderco if you were in the Military?
I'd want a serrated, salt fixed blade. Probably the Jumpmaster 2.

I'm not sure I'm as confident in that as you are. China and North Korea both have a lot more than one bomb.ChrisinHove wrote: ↑Mon Nov 06, 2023 3:08 pmThe risk these days must be more a single missile from a rogue state or terrorist dirty bomb, in which case a full tank of fuel will probably suffice.

The Georgia-Missouri game was certainly exciting. Missouri definitely brought their A game.

Re: The Last Gun You Bought
I remember dreaming of owning a Seecamp many years ago. I was never able to pick one up. Fortunately, tiny pocket pistols are now much more common. I own a Kahr in 380 that is very, very small, as well as a 9mm Kahr and the Sig P365, all for pocket carry. The site system on the Sig is pretty cool. I...

Re: NCAA Football 2023
Michigan now has three active investigations; 1). FBI seized computers and is investigating, but there is very little information. It seems like it might be a point shaving (betting) thing, where the OC was winning games and intentionally losing to the spread to make money? 2). Recruiting violations...

I feel like Colorado players posting merchandise for sale on instagram at halftime showed just a wee bit of overconfidence.

Re: NCAA Football 2023
I definitely don't see how the voters keep ranking Georgia first. Michigan looks much more impressive. If those two teams had played yesterday, I'm sure Michigan would have won. I'm a Georgia fan and I think they need to move down in the poll. Which would definitely help provide some motivation for ...

Re: NCAA Football 2023
Mercy, what a game! Ohio State defeats Notre Dame as time expires! The Irish defense played absolute lights out all night.....just a shame they lost this game. If they had put 11 players on the field, the defense might have pulled it out at the end. Are you serious Tom? You mean they only had 10?!?...

Re: NCAA Football 2023
It's interesting that when Colorado went 1-11 in 2022, they actually did _better_ against Oregon. 2022 score: 49-10. (Oregon by 39 points) (https://www.espn.com/college-football/game/_/gameId/401404030) 2023 score: 42-6. (Oregon by 36 points) (https://www.espn.com/college-football/game/_/gameId/4015...
