Re: Carrying power

.45 is best.

9mm is adequate.

.380 is so-so.

You still grooving on your TU442L?

Re: set list

While the population is definately fatter overall, some places are still fatter, trashier and more commonly tattooed than others. For instance, I’m in Bethany Beach, DE now. Ten miles north of Ocean Shiddy, MD. Night vs day! :facepalm2: Speaking of funny place names, about 2 miles West: https:/ ...

Re: POLL !!! - pebble finish sousaphone

Where will this all end?

A return to white shoes?

White belts?

Wide white-wall tires?

Re: POLL !!! - pebble finish sousaphone
