The Battleship Texas is undergoing a similar renovation. They have already completed the dry dock portion of the renovation, and are currently completing the work.

Look into one of the Linux distros. There is a learning curve, but it will run on almost anything. It is also more stable and secure than either Windows or Mac. While it is not 100% immune to malware, it is certainly much more resistant.

My first handgun was a Bersa Thunder .380. I still carry it some, although I usually carry a Shield 9mm. It is a good gun, and if .380 ammo wasn't so expensive, I would shoot it more than I do. It has never given me a single problem, but then neither do my other firearms.

My wife is a doctor, and while she is just fine with guns, a doctor's office is one place they are probably not appropriate. The prostate exam my doctor did on me a year or so ago was difficult enough without having to worry about a S&W hanging from my belt.

I have ordered ammo several times from Grab-A-Gun, and never had a problem. It was shipped and delivered as expected, and the price was right. I have not purchased a firearm from them, but I would probably not buy a gun online from any source. Some things need to be purchased in person. Guns and...

One of the gun ranges in Grand Prairie has one of these types of set ups. It is smaller, but the same principle.

My experience with Aguila 22lr has not been good. The failure to fire rate with my Browning Buckmark is about 20% and is even higher in my Ruger SR22.

I bought two boxes of .380acp from Target Sports, and have shot about 30 rounds at the range. It was just fine. I did not notice a difference between it and the Federal I had been shooting before opening the box of New Republic.

I drink a lot of coffee; there is a cup on my desk at work all day, and my preference is to make it in an old-style percolator. When I do buy coffee out, I refuse to pay the price of "premium" coffee. Just make it hot and strong. No sugar. No dairy products. The local 7-11 makes good coffee...

They certainly did for this business owner. https://www.star-telegram.com/news/state/texas/article278336444.html

My preference is a gas cook top and an electric oven.

I had a similar problem twice with my Walther PPK/s 22lr. Both times I was using Remington Golden Bullet ammo. Walther repaired the firearm under warranty the first time. After the second time, I did not bother having it repaired. That said, I no longer use Armscor or Aguila ammo because, at...

San Angelo set a new record a couple of days ago. It was 114°.

There were two deaths in Big Bend National Park yesterday. The temps were almost 120°. I grew up on a farm in western Texas (not to be confused with West, Texas). The heat can be dangerous. https://www.nps.gov/bibe/learn/news/two-fatalities-in-big-bend-national-park.htm

We make the same change three years ago. The salesman told us it would pay for itself in electricity savings in five years. He was wrong. I has already paid for itself. The difference in efficiency is incredible.

My concern with appendix carry isn't testicles, but the femoral artery.

My first handgun was a Bersa Thunder .380. It's a great carry gun. I have never had a jam, failure to feed, or failure to fire with it. Now I mostly carry a Walther Creed, but mostly because 9mm range ammo is considerably less expensive than .380 range ammo.

. . . and don't have room for.

Great book. MacIntyre has several popular histories on WWII topics. All are good reads. You might also check out Rick Atkinson's books on WW2.

S & B and Armscor work well in 9mm, but it is a bit dirtier than most ammo.
