Re: "The Reactive Gunfight"
After some twenty years teaching leading edge shooting techniques, Roger Phillips retired from teaching and is working to document his innovative thoughts on gunfighting in a new book: The Reactive Gunfight That's a fairly short and very solid read.

Re: Next banking crisis is already well underway
Rolls of 1-ounce gold coins?! I think a roll of silver dollars is 20 of 'em. So one roll of 20 1-ounce gold coins would come in at around $44,000 or more today. :shock: Yeah; no. Any gold I buy won't weigh enough to impede my swimming. At all. One ounce equals the weight of about 28 standard paperc...

Re: Next banking crisis is already well underway
Thanks for the info, folks. I was kinda sorta half-joking...but now I'm looking at it more seriously. Not that I have much money to worry about, but the speed at which the buying power of the dollar has nosedived the past four years plus the conversation about the very real possibility of a multi-pr...

Re: Can the USPS get any worse?
For us, it's not just the USPS in general, but the doofuses they hire to handle mail. Our local mail carrier looks like some hillbilly from the backwoods, and is constantly messing up people's mail (we have one of those community mailboxes): putting mail in the wrong box, putting parcels in the wro...
