A bout a hundred years or so didn't trolly cars run on electrified wires strung above their routes? To me that would seem to be a somewhat logical impractical way to power the trains. Maybe install solar panels and windmills on the locomotives. That way the faster they go the more electricity...
I always had Indiana values and that is how I always voted. I had a litmus test based on 2A values, I found the best on 2A were almost aways best on most conservative values. The problem was none of my beliefs mattered because of the voting block in Chicago and Cook county.
I have friends...
I liked and voted for Harry Browne back in the day. He had good ideas and personality. This was before that party started coming up with some real idiots like they have in the years since. I don't know if it was coined by him but I remember a quote from him that is still true. "The...
They have the same type of scam going on over in Illinois, the name is slightly different but the same Dorr brothers running it. Read an article on gunssavelife.com recently that told all about the scumbags. IIRC they don't even have an office in Illinois, just a drop box that forewords their...
Several years ago in a "Meijer" I could not find something that I could usualy find. When I asked an employee I was told the store moves things every so often . That way you will likely buy something you see while looking for what you came in for. Jim.
When you get a left turn green light I just "love" the people that get up to the light then stop to see if someone is coming from the other direction. Instead of eight people getting through the morons cut the number down to about four. Jim.
Had an awesome dog named Joe, 1/4 GS and 3/4 Doberman and when he was a pup he got too close to some firewood with those ********. He could hold a grudge and the rest of his life he hated them. He would bite them out of the air if they got close enough. I still miss that dog. Jim.
I will be going with Braun, he has a voting record that I can go with. You can say anything and then vote a different way, that is what most politicians do, lie their *** off to get elected with no intention of following through. Jim.
I have had four International Scouts back in the day and I saw on a "Scout" website the proper way to determine right of way. It is a ratio of vehicle weight vs. value. Take a $30,000 dollar car thar weighs 2500 LB and compare to a $800.00 truck that weighs 4500LB. Who should get the right of...
I grew up in a small town just south of Danville and lived there in Westville until I moved to Indiana in 2020. Danville was a nice place back in the 1960's then started going downhill fast. Don't remember the dates but manufacturing started moving out and taking the good paying jobs. Then I...
The optometrist I have went to for 30 years retired in Danville Illinois and I want to find my new one in Indiana. Looking at Terre Haute area or Crawfordsville or in between, Rockville or Clinton. I look at lists off the internet and they all read about the same so looking for real world...
Yes, why on earth are we letting these people from Africa in this country let alone feeding them. If they are leaving their own country for asylum they are supposed to file for that in the first country they enter. Oh yes when I was growing up I got to eat what was put on my plate or not eat...
No tree but a nice new gallows constructed with way overpriced lumber. Seems fitting to me since his policies and EO's are what caused most of the inflated prices. Jim.
I pretty much agree with you on this because most are a bunch of liberal ******** so I for sure don't want to listen to that. However, there are a few performers that do not fit that mold. Saw Ted Nugent last July in Terre Haute and really enjoyed his discussion of politics. Especially when...
Took off Saturday morning about 5:45 for Wildcat Valley Rifle & Pistol Club to shoot IDPA, about a 75 mile trip. About 40 degrees so a bit chilly but no real problem. Several cows have died to keep me warm, I eat them and wear them. Love riding in early morning watching the sky heat up then...
Wow is this cool! Just found out this morning I was selected for the 3rd annual mushroom hunt at "Vermillion Rise" a huge wooded area that used to be the ammo dump years ago. They do a lottery drawing and I got picked and I can take a guest, the wife. $25.00 donation that goes to the...
