Nelliebelle is a MIGHTY FINE name for any vehicle. It shows that you watched quality shows as a youth, and that you care enough about your equipment to not only name it, but to care for it like a friend. My vehicles have names too, but not as nostalgic as Nelliebelle.

In addition to being a better observation location, it also is better for testing the breeze for scent. Also, if I were a prey animal, I would want the advantage of the high ground. If you are on higher ground, the predator has to approach from lower elevations. This may make a difference in an...

The large ones are very handy for almost everything, but are kind of big for a lot of us who don't get out that much anymore. I still keep a few around for outdoor projects, but usually carry a little one for day to day chores. The one that I carry is getting to be a little on the pricey side...

My guess would be some kind of clothing. (for a very stout person)

Just a few random thoughts. You didn't tell us how or where you plan to use this knife. If it is going to be used a lot in the outdoors, pick a name brand in the style that you would like to use, and take care of it. Most of the major brands are pretty good now days. The Moras are ugly, but...

Childrens Mass Children's Mass A priest was presenting a special children's mass to the congregation. During the message, he asked the children if they knew what the resurrection was. Now, asking questions during children's Mass is crucial; but at the same time, asking the children...

Romantic Text A middle-aged couple had finally learned how to send and receive texts on their cell phones. The wife, being a romantic at heart, decided one day that she'd send her husband a text while she was out of the house having coffee with a friend. She texted: If you are sleeping...

Good Friends Now THIS is a good friend. A man brings his best buddy back home for dinner. His wife screams at him!!, "My hair & makeup are not done, the house is a mess, the dishes are not done, I'm still in my pajamas & I can't be bothered with cooking tonight!!!. What the...

Semper Fi Why Marine veterans have a hard time getting a job. Job Interview Personnel Manager: "What is your greatest weakness ?" Old Marine: "Honesty" Personnel Manager: "I don't think honesty is a weakness !" Old Marine: "I don't give a **** what you think"...

Florida Flat Tire Here is a Political Joke for you. I will post it both ways so you can copy the version that you want. The Florida Flat Tire.... I was traveling between West Palm Beach and Boca Raton the other day (south of Jupiter) when a tire blew out. Checking my spare, I found...

Montana Rancher An 80-year-old rancher from Montana goes to the Mayo clinic in Rochester for a check-up. The doctor is amazed at what good shape the guy is in and asks, 'How do you stay in such great physical condition?' 'I'm from Montana and in my spare time I like to hunt and fish'...

I am glad that you are taking a part in his decision. If things get misplaced all the time in your home, it might be a good idea to have a talk (NOT an argument) with hubby, and make sure that you are both on the same page. It would also be a good idea if you were to take the safety course too...

Handicapped Parking Today I had to go to the Fred Meyer. As I approached the entrance, I noticed a driver looking for a parking space. I flagged the driver and pointed out a handicap parking space that was open and available. The driver looked puzzled, rolled down her window and said...

Boots This one has been around a time or two, but it might be new for some. Did you hear about the teacher who was helping one of her pre-school class pupils put on his boots? He asked for help and she could see why. Even with her pulling and him pushing, the little boots still...

The big SAKs are fun to show to people, but are not real handy. About the largest practical size would be the Swiss Champ. Even that one is better carried in a sheath. It would be a nice addition to your backpack/possibles bag. victorinox swiss champ | eBay...

Farm Boys You can never underestimate the innovativeness of American Farm Boys: At a high school in Kansas, a group of male students played a prank. They let three goats loose inside the school. But before turning them loose, they painted numbers on the sides of the goats: 1, 2 and 4...

My opinion is the same as everyone elses. What had been an interesting show has turned into a poorly produced imitation of what it could be. Both of these guys have valuable skills that they could be showing us, but are instead acting out some poorly written script. The fact that they are polar...

Choose your Doctor Wisely This is a reply to Grandpa's post: "I believe mental illness is going to become a very big thing in the near future. People with mental problems will not be able to own firearms so, under Obamacare, expect to see the number of people unfit to own firearms skyrocket...

Grandpa, Many of us have wondered about the same thing. In some cases the shooter is clearly not playing with the same deck of cards that we are, but often times it is a normal person with no reason to kill people. What sets them off? Why must they go on a killing spree? We have all heard of...
