    Guns and shooting advice?

    Thanks, Diamondback. I pretty much gathered that this was the case (same as I have encountered on occasion working in the computer industry). I must say, though, that I was incredibly surprised with the number of women who were there - of course, they were all there with men.

    "In 2003, Smith & Wesson introduced their variation of the classic M1911 .45 ACP semi-automatic handgun, the SW1911. This firearm retains the M1911's well known dimensions, operation, and feel, while adding a variety of modern touches. Updates to the design include serration at the front of the...

    Guns and shooting advice?

    AAAAAAHAHAHAHAHA lol This range is not one of them. There are discounts for members, or for guests of members, and members get bumped to the front of the line, but they have no rules that restrict non-members from renting and shooting, even machine guns. That wasn't the policy, which is why...

    Guns and shooting advice?

    The most screwed up thing happened to me yesterday.... I went to an indoor range up in NH because I felt like getting out of the house and engaging in an activity that would help me focus and take my mind off all of the lousy things that happened to me during 2008. None of my friends who shoot...

    Babydoll, these are so cute! I've been looking at them for a long time as a more affordable alternative to Remix. Please let me know how they are on the dance floor - I need a good pair of repro/retro dance shoes that are comfy!

    Will Price Increase Change Your Buying Vintage?

    :eusa_clap I too will contact sellers to complain about their shipping costs. I will also not hesitate to report sellers who inflate their shipping costs too high, because at that point, they're just engaging in a scam.

    Will Price Increase Change Your Buying Vintage?

    Also keep in mind that when bidding, most buyers take the total price including shipping into account. When shipping goes up, buyers just lower the bid amount they're willing to pay in order to accommodate the higher shipping cost.

    The Curious Case of Benjamin Button

    Think it's a visually beautiful film, and I can't place my finger on it, but there's something about it that left me feeling pretty neutral about the whole experience of seeing it.

    Guns and shooting advice?

    My dad has had it since the 70s and still has the original purchase receipt! I also shot his Browning Challenger .22 LR. Many thanks for the tip!

    Guns and shooting advice?

    It's something that may just take some getting used to, and the grip on the .357 I shot was a little too large for comfort . I shot my dad's Browning Hi-Power 9mm today, it felt pretty comfortable, and my accuracy was better than with the .357, so I think part of it just might be practice. I...

    Back to zits

    Thanks for the tips, Suzy. I'm really hesitant to take antibiotics for anything unless I absolutely have to, though. They're way overprescribed and we end up building tolerance to them, over time reducing their effectiveness. Also, I don't know about you, but most gals get pretty negative...

    Girdles, Corsets, and Underpinnings

    Shapewear cannot permanently shape your body or reduce inches. For that, I think everyone here would recommend exercise :-) But shapewear IS great as an affordable and comfortable alternative for taking off inches (sometimes, and also depending on the garment) and smoothing lines. The Rago...

    Lipstick Tissue

    I'm pretty sure there has been some discussion of this before in the lipstick thread. Here's a tip someone else has posted here: end rolling papers for hair are perfect for blotting lipstick!

    Back to zits

    I NEVER had acne (with the exception of the occasional blemish) until about 2 months ago. It's like, all of a sudden, one day, BAM! and I can't get it to go away. Some of it are the regular reddish bumps, but the worst are the hard, subcutaneous cysts. I tried taking up OCM again with...

    Sewing Lessons & FAQ

    I don't normally follow this thread, so it's highly likely that someone has posted this here already, but my mom showed me the coolest way to do darts (works for straight darts only, not curved ones)! Before, I was tracing the pattern markings using chalk and a wheel. She had me make a small...

    Guns and shooting advice?

    All right, time for show and tell! First firearm used was a Smith and Wesson 63-3 .22 long rifle 6 shot revolver. The shots that are more off-mark were shot double-action. <p> Second was a Smith and Wesson .357 6 shot revolver, I didn't note the model number. A little too much gun for me...

    Colds and Flu Time!

    Drixoral is the best and I find that little else works for me, although Drixoral is harder and harder to find these days. I also really love this effervescent medication called Tabcin that my dad brings me from Central/South America. It's basically Alka Seltzer Cold, but with more medication...
