    Taking Equity out of Home OP spoke to me - now, me too!

    I’m not a steward of anything and I do not have a debt sheep so I can’t speak to it. But I do seem to learn the hard way 😂.

    I think the teaching of financial guru Dave Ramsey is very similar to this. A favorite quote of Dave’s is from Proverbs: “The borrower is slave to the lender.” My favorite fact about Dave Ramsey is he has declared bankruptcy more times than I have and has zero sheep to show for it.

    Burris FF 3-9x40mm Drop Eval Q&A

    Impressed with this result, looking forward to the retest with the new rings. Does anyone remember when burris had the "zero lock" screw? it was a screw that you tighten on the errector housing that actually locked in the errector tube.

    AK Sheep Specific First Aid Kit

    To the guys carrying TQs it is critical to know how long a properly applied TQ can stay on before permanent damage occurs. 2-3 hours is okay; 6 hours is acceptable; beyond that not much is known. 16 hours is the longest I have heard of without permanent damage, sample size of one.

    AK Sheep Specific First Aid Kit

    This is pretty much my exact kit. No percocet, I use benadryl (sleep aid) and ibuprofen. Anything overseas gets a few more altitude specific drugs and ondansetron.
