Re: NFL Season: 2019-2020

JD, As much as I think the Jerrah is the problem in Dallas, he is right to hang on to a good coach for as long as possible. The best teams have continuity. Dallas has an interesting coaching history. Tom Landry for almost 30 years, then jimmy Johnson and berry switzer. All these guys won the big gam...

Re: Straight Spine Stretch

USPS seems to be giving mine the scenic tour. Rough time of year to be in the delivery business. Should have been here already and tracking says it’s in the wrong town. Patience...

Re: New Madrid Seismic Zone?

My favorite earthquake fact: The Richter scale numbers are the amount of energy released. A long earthquake (4 1/2 minutes) like the 1964 Alaska quake would have less violent shaking than a short quake of the same energy like the north ridge quake that was only 20 seconds. North ridge was so violent...

Re: New Madrid Seismic Zone?

There's also the Cascadia Subduction Zone (CSZ) that runs about 600 miles from southern BC (Canada) to northern CA (USA): https://pnsn.org/outreach/earthquakesources/csz The key take-away from the 2016 exercise is pretty simple: You're on your own. The authorities will be completely overwhelmed. Th...

Re: New Madrid Seismic Zone?

There is also a rather large fault under NYC.... That doesn't get talked about either... Do you know the name of that "Fault" or "Seismic Zone"? Someone mentioned to me about a Fault close to the metropolitan New York City area but I've never heard a name for it. That would prob...

Re: New Madrid Seismic Zone?

That earthquake on the new Madrid fault was one of the largest magnitude earthquake ever recorded on US soil. Largest on continental US. The 1965 earthquake in Alaska was bigger, it lasted 4 1/2 minutes and some larger sections of towns dropped into the water and disappeared. The west coast is on th...

Are we opening the flood gates on US steel in Japan models? The possibilities are exciting. It looks good but I’m probably out on this one.

Re: Shaman Cru-Wear Sprint Run release ?

Finally got a notice from Knife Center - they oversold pre-orders and no more are coming. That is a bummer every time it happens. So disappointing. Wish they wouldn’t sell things that they don’t already have a solid order for. Definitely annoying, but really no surprise at this point. But if you ha...

Re: Sports superstars Majoring in "Stupidity"

Well it turned out to be a great move because at the end of his career like a lot of those guys he went through a lot of his money. Because of his great dad and mom he now pretty much has it made. It's sad that many of these pro ball players end up broke shortly after their multi-million dollar car...

Gpknives has them right now if you hurry, worst that can happens is you wind up in good company with me owning two of them. 😁
Must have been a busy weeekend for our favorite dealers. Knifeworks finally sent shipping notification. All good. Thanks for the heads up though.

Re: Are We Intended To Be "Herd Animals"?

Maybe I’m just contrarian, but I see all these Black Friday riot videos and it makes me smile. We don’t have any of that craziness where I live. Everyone has money (or you wouldn’t live here). So I see all these people falling all over each other in a mad rush and know these people are trying to str...

Other than waiting for a ss stretch, probably.
But of course it will be pointed out that prices will be raised in the new year and its last chance at these prices, and you never know.
