Evening all.

Very slow day at work today. Got done around 1, hung around at the shop and "helped" the owner paint a tank for a new truck until 3 (I stood around and grabbed him a beer once in a while).

I went to that local place (Selway if Roo is reading), and they didn't have any Clays. But they had a truck in this morning and had a bottle of Winchester 231, so I grabbed that instead. Should be good for 9mm and 38 both.

Kid, if you want that shell holder let me know and I'll dig it out, just need a mailing address to send it to.

231 is a good pistol powder, a little fast for shotgun but that ain't what you want anyway. ;D  Faster takes less.

Morning all. I'll take a double helping of that coffee this morning.

Guessers calling for white stuff today.  That's about it.

I'll get it out in the mail in a day or so. I'm not sure who the maker is, it's marked 9A, but a .38/.357 fits perfectly.I tried looking up the number but my google fu is lacking today.

Sounds like Redding to me, but I could be (probably am) wrong.

Because it makes it sound much more exotic to use "Polar Vortex".

Just split a 3 pound bag of Columbian into 1/4's, added it to the rest of my stash, crock has Lady Grey, Darjeeling and Lap Sang Sochong, plain old Orange Pekoe is in the kitchen fort iced tea, 5 boxes.   Freezers are pretty full, cupboards are too and got two cases of canned milk going to toss under the bed because we have half a case in the kitchen.  Was 6 dollars a case at Walmart the other day, wish I'd of thought of under the bed and would have bought more, maybe 10 pounds of cheese.

10 lbs. of cheese is a doorstop.

Most of it is shredded, my "rat" eats a lot, forgot how much it takes to feed a teen ager.

River City John and I have had this discussion before, if I owned Omaha and Hell I'd live in Hell and rent out Omaha?

Ran up to pick up one of Lexie's friends, friend moved, had address got there found the house, she called her friend, friend came out in driveway, no kid, confirmed address. 

Cussing I went to my regular map site instead of the POS that Google gives you when you search.  Hmm, anyone see a problem here?
