Re: Concrete Jungle: A Green Beret's guide to Urban Survival

I’ve recently read that book, and two others. I follow Martin on Twitter. He has a lot of good points, one of which is don’t get distracted by Gucci gear. For instance, he says that for the average armed citizen, something like a PSA AR and 1000 rounds of ammo is plenty good enough. I’m in the bles...

Re: Shots fired at Trump!?!

I read an article last night about concern about an Iranian attack on President Trump. My first thought was this was chumming the waters to give a good story for the next attempt.

Re: Oppenheimer and the Beekeeper ( movies)

I watched the Beekeeper this weekend. I enjoyed it. But I've long been a Statham fan. Watching Napoleon later this week. I've heard good things about it. Napoleon was interesting especially his love making. The sets, scenery and costumes were awesome. Tactics of the big battles was the most interes...

Re: Official DPS stats on LTC for 2023

I don't regularly schedule classes. And only give classes via contacts through friends and family. So I'm not a good gauge of what's out there. I am getting requests for kids of friends and family who want to get their licenses at 18.

Re: Official DPS stats on LTC for 2023

I have several past students who allowed their LTC's to expire during the pandemic. A couple have requested a class to get theirs back. I'm sure that's not an outlier.

Re: Check on your friends during the holiday season.

Sorry for the situations mentioned above. As a Pastor and Counselor I deal with people with depression more this time of the year than any other time. Also more people pass away. I have already had two funerals. I have a memorial service this Friday and on December 15. As mentioned by clarionite pl...

Re: Next banking crisis is already well underway

Not sure if related but Gold hit a record high of around $2100. While Bitcoin is back above $40,000. The pundits seem to think an interest rate decline is coming from the fed. The stock market is the highest it’s been for a while. Oil is down. Is the market factoring Trump will win next year? There...

Check on your friends during the holiday season.

Thursday one of my best friends took his life. He was a great guy, but had his demons. He lost his mom to cancer this year. He had some legal and financial problems. And has struggled with some depression and drinking issues his whole life. I knew he was depressed, but thought I was getting through ...

Re: What's in Luckenbach?

I've been twice on bike ride's with buddies. There's not much there, but the post office is a decent place to grab a bite to eat and something cool to drink along the ride. And as other's have said, just getting it off your bucket list. We usually started in Boerne, through Luckenbach, Frederiksberg...

That's 20 minutes from my little sister's office. Thankfully she's retiring in March and will be moving out of there.
