    No longer hunting?

    Number one killer of old people is retirement. If it were me, and my father was still alive I'd be encouraging him to stay active in someway. Do you have children yourself? He could help them learn outdoors skills for example. Good luck to you both.

    Homeschooling

    Wanted to add a couple of things: Judging parents, teachers, policeman, doctors, tradesmen, cars salesmen, etc who care and put the effort in, to those that at best don't care to at worst are outright malevolent obviously isn't helpful. 99% of parents who tried homeschooling during the so...

    Homeschooling

    We don't do home-schooling, we do home education. The mother in-law was a thirty year teacher whose took retirement from teaching early because she's not happy with it. The wife studied for her teaching degree when she was younger. We live no where near our in-laws and you absolutely do not need...

    How are people affording these crazy home prices?

    That's unfortunate. Yes, it's debt. Either the market collapses in 1-3 years, or it doesn't but people become renters with all the housing stock owned by large corps, over time. I hope for everyone's sake, yours included it crashes and people stop signing themselves up to lifetimes worth of...

    Collars on clothing

    So cut them off... Go to a tailor and get him to alter them if you want it done with more precision. I agree with you. I want something with a collar on so my ruck straps don't rub my neck. As you said one baselayer, and one outlayer can do that. A headover / buff solves heat retention if you...

    Rynoskin Clothing

    Correlation is not causation, however the decline in not just health markers but genetic health in the first world nations, (and to a lesser extent beyond) since WW2 is so catastrophic as to be biblical. Or if you're more inclined, at or near extinction level. Yet all the chemicals added to...

    Rynoskin Clothing

    A Russian trick during communism for ticks and bugs in general was to soak clothes in diesel then allow them to dry. Then wear them. No bugs at all. Probably less toxic to use than chemical bug repellent tbf, but be careful around naked flame!! Clothing is very effective at stopping most...

    Cardio with Screwed Up Ankle?

    Swimming is the greatest cardio there is. Go full beast mode and swim butterfly stroke.

    Short quotes that speak volumes.

    "Debt is the currency of slaves..." "Credit" is just debt rebranded.

    Keep my F150 or get a new 4Runner?

    Don't get more debt. That is first and foremost. Personally I prefer diesel engines. Your money, your pick.

    Hunting partners…Finding new ones, losing old ones.

    I'd be up for it...but I'm not yet in the country! The wife is from VT and I've had a job offer in NH but four years in and we are still no closer to moving / getting an interview with the embassy in London. New lawyers out of NY tell us soon, but we've been told that before. We'd be staying...

    Done with KUIU!?

    Off your story I don't think they're out of line tbh. Kind of shitty modern company behaviour? Yes. But that's what I'd expect from a modern company that outsourcers production tbh. Keep the top, get the sleeve length altered to suit your needs and be happy.

    Great Hunting/Work Jeans

    I'm only 5'11” aka basically 6 foot so don't have all the same issues but the cuts of trousers these days in England has got so bad it's increasingly difficult to buy anything other than pre-1990 surplus for work wear, etc.
