Wild West: Shortly after the founding of English colonies in the early 17th century there were whites pushing west. They were armed and had conflict with natives and each other. I think for the participants they didn't doubt that it was wild or west. Second amendment: Besides ensuring the right...

Provisions tacked onto a federal interstate transportation bill forced my favorite tobacco store out of business. Big Tobacco was behind it. Retail tobacco stores had to discontinue allowing customers to use on premises cigarette rolling machines. These machines were the main revenue for my...

Q. Why did the possum try to cross the road? A. He saw the chicken do it.

Mark Twain said " "There are three kinds of lies: lies, damned lies and statistics." I saw it on television (okay, can't quote a source) that we have lost, and continue to lose jobs that pay well. And the new jobs that are created are mostly on the low end of the pay scale.

I just can't wrap my mind around something that grows like cedar tree being trained into horizontal growth. It just seems redundant - it is a bush whether grown up or sideways.

Well, at least it's a *dry* heat! ;) I got married in mid June a few years ago and honeymooned in Tucson. Folks here in the midwest said "It's too hot to go to AZ in June!" It was a muggy 90 degrees here and when we got to Tucson it was 101. Tucson was much more bearable. And we just loved the...

Pre-1965 USA dimes, quarters & half dollars are .900 fine (90%) silver. Sterling silver silver is .925. "Pure" would be the .999 fine. I used to deal a fair bit in bullion and collectible coins. I seldom saw .999 silver in less than a full ounce apart from the occasional piece that was embeded...
