    Loungers' Pets

    Roller Tine comb. If the Maine Coon has a fault it's the need for regular grooming, they will develop mats which can grow to gigantic proportions in a very short amount of time. These mats can get very dense and if they're allowed to form on the britches they can cause very bad problems. My ex...

    Loungers' Pets

    What a lovely girl. Maine Coons are wonderful sturdy cats with a lot of Catitude. My Samantha will be 15 next month and she's still gorgeous.

    "Doctor Who," He's Back and it's About Time!

    Always takes a while to get used to the new "Doctor" but I think Matt Smith going to be okay. He's got the right amount of arrogance and humility to be a great Doctor.

    No more USS Enterprise

    1st off they're not useless in the 2 current conflicts. 2nd the US is the premier naval power on the face of the earth. The only way to protect your naval forces is with air superiority and a nuclear aircraft carrier is 2+ acres of sovereign US territory that can cover 70% of the world surface...

    No more USS Enterprise

    Even if CVN 79 is named Enterprise there will be a Gap. Enterprise CVN 65 is due to be retired in 2013 and the CVN 79 is due to be commissioned in 2019 and the CVN 80 in 2023. What did GW Bush do to deserve having a carrier named for him, he was a 1 term mediocre President, same with Carter...

    No more USS Enterprise

    When CVN 65 is retired in 2013 there will no longer be a Enterprise in the US fleet. CV 6 (The Big E) Enterprise was the most decorated ship in WW2 earning 20 Battle Stars and being involved in some of the most decisive battles of the 20th century, CVN 65 has been a worthy successor. I didn't...

    Japanese Surrender in World War II

    They should have signed the surrender on the deck of the Enterprise, the most decorated ship in the war. The Missouri's got a place of honor at Pearl Harbor, the Enterprise got cut up for scrap except for 1 of her portholes that was used on CVN 65. Edit. Enterprise took her last damage of the...

    shaving query

    I've been shaving my head with a DE for over 3 years and obviously do the back of my head by feel. If you do your 1st pass with the grain to remove most of the whiskers before you try shave across or against the grain you should be okay. There's a learning curve as pivoting head razor have...

    Is anyone else catching American Pickers?

    Some people are just the opposite and live to haggle, they'll haggle over $.25. Obviously it's a show and it's staged. If it was real Frank would have taken pictures of the car and sent them to his expert during the time between when he first saw the car and when he actually bought it. Rick...

    Is anyone else catching American Pickers?

    That's true and many of these people seem to be semi-hoarders. But people you collect stuff/junk think their stuff is valuable so to pry the good stuff away from them your really have to have a gift of gab and need to be a good bargainer. You also have to really love the hunting and haggling...

    Is anyone else catching American Pickers?

    It looks like a great way to make a living when all they show is them stopping at places where they're mountains of stuff. What about the days when it's bust. But I imagine real pickers are POed about the show driving up prices. If your a picker you have to travel increasingly far from your...

    I believe that the true great commander of the Pacific War was Admiral Nimitz not General MacArthur.

    Stretching a hat - advice please....

    I've had hats that were easy to stretch and others that no matter what I did returned to their original size. First thing is you need a good hat stretch, a hat jack is okay but they're better choices out there. Here's mine, they're deeper then the hat jack (top of pic) and have provisions so...
