That’s not really the law of the land anymore though is it.

But those who suffer from mental illness, are likely not thinking clearly when they seek a firearm. Since mental illness does not make purchasing ( unless you’ve been involuntarily committed )weapons illegal, it’s prudent to be proactive.

Govt is slower than shit. I applied for Medicare in July. Just got approved, haven’t received cards yet. So about 4&1/2 months of waiting, with periodic stops into their office to double-check there wasn’t anything else I could do to speed it along. They will charge me retroactively for Medicare B, so about $340. Two months worth.

I watched the filmstrip of the Tacoma narrows bridge AKA Galloping Gertie so many times in jr high that it gives me a shiver to drive over it. Although I did this afternoon.

It would be early for me, but my kids who live an hr away and go for sunrise hikes say this is the status quo. Which is kinda sad because it seems like some folks not only need to learn the Ten Essentials but Leave No Trace and that includes no sharing trail tunes.
