Smith Wigglesworth - Ever Increasing Faith. With the disc injury and associated nerve pain I am currently dealing with, I tend to turn towards books like this and/or the Bible. Need to do much better about that when I am feeling good but that is another post.
All that is understandable. Choices, consequences, economy, etc. Some are in your control and some are not. Sounds like your wife is supportive and that is incredibly helpful. I can't imagine how hard it would be if she wasn't. Count your blessings. I know I count mine even in bad times...can...
I had a watch notification setup for this post to know when the story was posted. That sucks no response. @Nameless Range I know I PM'd you but it was not specifically hunting related and I appreciated the quick response and conversation.
I lost all my rifles in an unfortunate boating accident. But before that, I had ordered a rifle special just to get a good wood stock because I preferred the look and feel. Couldn't find one that looked like what I wanted otherwise. Nostalgia maybe. But then again, my first gun was $125 and I...
Comments in this thread turned personal quick. Some rightfully so, some just because people get too offended too easily. I have tattoos. Depending on who I am meeting or consulting, I cover them up with longer sleeves. My brother has tattoos over a large part of his body. He works with teenagers...
I was surprised how warm I could be with the jetstream. Blocking the wind was huge and I liked the lack of bulk. Wind is a big consideration for me living in SD. With one layer it will take me to 10 or so. I have fairly nice warmth layers if things get really cold.
You guys go hard core. My stomach hurts reading some of these. I really just like siracha, franks red hot and recently started using Tabenero Siracha Honey on eggs which is really good! Whenever I try some of those really hot ones, I have hours long regret. haha!
I know this was over 20 years ago for me but I was required to do just that in starting engineering grad school. So was everyone else that I was going to school with. Then we had research and experiments to attempt to prove and/or disprove the hypothesis. Then defend the thesis to get the piece...
Unfortunately, they do not all use the scientific method. I know at least one wildlife biologist very well and he is hamstrung to very specific topics and not able to spend time needed to use the scientific method. Unfortunately, he and many others get their paychecks as a checkmark for logging...
I believe it has to include social science because at social science core is the study of our behavior and our influence to the world around us. I am an engineer by trade and my brothers are both in social sciences. It has caused many disagreements but through mutual respect, we have agreed some...
With all of this, our family has a password for any phone call emergencies. It is something we implemented a couple years ago but it was the only way I could think of to thwart even some percentage of this. With my first born going to college in about a year, this will become more important to...
I believe the american water spaniel is more tolerant to cold and the boykin is more tolerant of heat. That is one difference. Very similar! I second spaniels. Even though I own brittanys and they are not officially spaniels any more, they are still close enough to me. Great pets and great hunters.
