    I guess I'm guilty of bear baiting.

    I've mentioned the ground hogs here. You see them 3' off the side of the road standing up like a merkat. I don't think you're allowed to hunt them. Then in the mountains proper the ground squirrels will come right up to you looking for a handout. The Magpies are the best. On the decks of a ski...

    I guess I'm guilty of bear baiting.

    Still not sure what killed the deer out at the ranch. It was just bones when I found it. I know a bear got a llama at the neighbor's ranch then came back the next night and killed the other one. I see people walking their dogs at night in our neighborhood. I don't think I would do that. The...

    I guess I'm guilty of bear baiting.

    The last time we had a bear was over a year ago. He knocked over the trash bin and scratched the metal BBQ lid. I put the memory cards back in the cameras so we'll see. About six weeks ago I went downstairs to get something to drink and there was a raccoon just sitting outside the sliding...

    I guess I'm guilty of bear baiting.

    I saw the video with the mama bear and her two cubs. It was the middle of the day which surprised me. I noticed a Magpie was harassing them. The Broadmoor in south Colorado Springs is a 5-star resort. They have fancy golf tournaments there that occasionally are halted for bears to move out of...

    I guess I'm guilty of bear baiting.

    We used to have some free range house cats in the area. No more. Any sign posted about a lost cat was put down to a fox attack. Our neighborhood is called High Meadow at Fox Run. The High Meadow name s a subset. The land was owned by a fox breeder, I suppose for the fur trade. When he sold it...

    Let's talk about a 1969 Charger SE vs base vs R/T

    Thanks. I was wondering what the SE package added also.

    I guess I'm guilty of bear baiting.

    If I have some leftovers I put them out on the back porch for the raccoons, foxes and coyotes. Last night after browning a bunch of hamburger I poured the grease on to a dish then put some stale flour tortillas over the grease to make a tasty snack. The food was gone this morning but the...

    What's it Worth Thinking of selling my dad's Superbird

    It's cool but us mere mortals won't be able to afford it. Hagerty says $106K in fair condition. $144 in good condition. Good luck, it will make someone's dreams come true, I hope not some collector that is adding his 7th Superbird to his collection. 1970 Plymouth Road Runner Superbird |...

    Let's talk about a 1969 Charger SE vs base vs R/T

    So my '69 Charger is a Special Edition. Here's what I know. It's silver with a black vinyl top. 383 I think it had a two barrel carb. It has a 4 bbl now. A blue leather interior. That's weird but I've seen it occasionally. It has a rear stripe but I don't think that's original. It has...

    A follow up to my cash question involving Bitcoin.

    Thank you for keeping it simple.

    A follow up to my cash question involving Bitcoin.

    I barely understand Bitcoin but are there any advantages to using Bitcoin and keeping the government out of the business of tracking your withdrawals and deposits as it relates to our cars?

    Who Likes Scale Models ?

    We had a couple of model makers working for us when I was an industrial designer. The artists (working the drawings on paper) would come up with the new product, but full sized models then had to be made. Zebco was a major client of ours. The drawing would be made. Not blueprint scale drawings...

    Did anyone go see F1?

    $20 to stream it online. We paid $23 at the theater. The big screen and sound was worth $3 to me. The fact that they had a black driver was realistic if you know Lewis Hamilton driving Ferraris on the real F1 circuit. Besides we got to call it a daddy daughter date. I've mentioned I raised...
