The difference between when I go to work and when I walk my dog is…

I look like hot stuff when i go in the office i look like a total bum when i walk my dog

Who benefits the most with how you live?

Who gets to receive most of the energy you spend? Do you spend it to better yourself and the people you love? Do you spend it on your passions? Helping strangers? Or do you spend most of it to better the company you work for? Is the company worth it?...

Rifle bluing project……

Inherited an old Parker Hale .303 carbine, well cared for except the bluing. To any possible gunsmiths here….worth the trouble of stripping and re-bluing it myself or send it to a shop? I have all the equipment and chemicals, touched up my Mosin...
