[MBZ] OT - Next Pistol Purchase

I was giving some thought to buying a Beretta 92 FS. Any fellow listers familiar with this pistol, or have some direct experience they might want to share? Thanks, Dan ___ http://www.okiebenz.com To search list archives http://www.okiebenz.com/archive/ To

Re: [MBZ] Beautiful Day

I'm heading out to the sporting clays range when I get off work to check out some new chokes for the Beretta and bust some clays. We can "sell" unused vacation days back to the County if we have at least 80 hours. I should have accumulated enough time this year to do it. It's like getting an

Re: [MBZ] One or Two for Mr. Snook, Esq

What Dwight says. Practice makes perfect. I can probably do it without a mirror, it would just take me longer. Getting everything balanced out can take a minute or two. A lot depends on the "hand", or the type of fabric the tie is made of. Don't buy cheap bow ties - they're much harder to tie

Re: [MBZ] One or Two for Mr. Snook, Esq

Cute. I agree. As dear old Dad always told me, "Dress like the CEO and people will treat you like one." Despite working in a very business casual environment, I still wear dress pants, dress shirts with French cuffs and cufflinks every day, even on Fridays ("jeans day.") Quite honestly, I'm

Re: [MBZ] Wasted oil change

Not really. Like any maintenance program, you've got to be committed to entering the data. For things like fuel, since it's on my phone I just do it when I fuel the car - easy. For maintenance items, I do it after I've done the work. If it's a repetitive operation, such as an oil and filter

That's interesting, as when I lived up there from 1988-1996 it was considered very, very unusual to see anyone who wasn't Caucasian/Western European in the area, except for Laotian/Vietnamese, most of whom were brought over as refugees during and after the Vietnam war. Realize that there is a
