People dumping dogs due to economic downturn?
It seems over the past couple of months things have gotten worse. I have seen 5 dogs that appeared to have been dropped off.
- I picked one up and gave it a home.
- Two got on the highway and were killed - they traveled close to 2 miles.
- Two more appeared on the county road I live on.
I am not sure what is causing the surge, but I wonder if the economic downturn is a factor. Unemployment has not been extended, people are running out of money.... something has to give.

The Opening Salvo In The War On White Men
One could make a case that the syndrome may have started even earlier than that , various hints of it can be found at the intersection of the Beat Generation with the Hippie Generation and became more evident from there on.
As regard Rob Reiner ( hereafter refered to as " The Whiner) , y'all may note the fact that while he may snivel as regards " White Privilege" he had zero problems with exploiting his " HollyWeird Daddy Privilege" to get ahead , now did he? Without his father having been Carl Reiner would he have ever been anything beyond a second-rate playhouse actor and/or another failed Lounge Comedian?
Examine if you will the transformation of the anti-authoritarian , free spirited , anti-establishment Hippie Left into what they claimed to fear most. I.E. hardline authoritarian Establishment bent on controlling the rank and file citizen from womb to tomb , morphing into a cult of fear and control.
Those who value personal freedom , self responsibility and ownership of ones self and ones actions have in this day and age become " The Radicals". Begging for Mommy Government to tell folks what to do has become the order of the day with the Left , along with exerting totalitarian violence to get the public to comply with their edicts/wishes.
Kerouac is rolling over in his grave , the spirit of Neal Cassaday is running for the horizon.

Rough Country 5" Lift
And many types of suspension are designed to dynamically change camber and toe as the suspension travels to give better turning performance and so when you lift or lower, you change the entire alignment and may put it out of range of the existing camber bolts.
The only way to get more clearance without angling your CVs is to use bigger tires as otherwise you are just lifting the body but dropping your diffs to maintain angles and ending up with the same axle clearance.
But you can do a lot with a SMALL spacer lift and bigger tires without getting to deep in.

Holiday season plans?
Christmas, my oldest son said he wasn't into us having it this year (last year he was in alcohol rehab at the time, is now doing well) and I doubt we could manage to get many takers. We used to fill the place up with 20 to 30 people. So maybe low key is the way to go, we might put up a tree.

Printing maps to proper scale
No more fumbling and grumbling over finding the right quads and wishing it would work easily on standard printer paper. Now it is as easy as zooming in on the desired area, click, and print from the printable PDF.

USGS topographic maps are a must-have if you would like to know the geographic lay of the land, including roads, railroads, rivers, streams, lakes, boundaries, place names, mountains, etc.

Leatherman Free p4- my quest for the perfect multi tool
Pros
1. Not as big as the sog or some other MTs. It’s not too small to use. It is MUCH more EDC friendly than a large size MT.
2. Pocket Clip. I don’t think I’ll use the pouch to carry it ( see cons ) Again much more EDC friendly.
3. One handed opening is pretty good for knife and pliers. Opening other tools isn’t really one hand , but it’s much easier than most MTs.
4. Has good set of tools. Not perfect ( see cons ) but scissors , saw , small screw driver for glasses and a file. These and the pliers are what I use most.
5. This is a high quality product from what I can tell. Leatherman has a good warranty and reputation.
6. American made.
Cons
1. Belt pouch sucks. Cheap nylon non mole pouch. No way to disconnect from
Belt without removing belt. It might be ok for a holster but I’m not worried about my multi tool being taken by a bad guy.
2. One handed opening is really for only a few of the tools.
3. File could be better. I really wish they had replaced the serrated blade with a 3 sided file like my SOG had. Having a 2 blades and a saw doesn’t make sense to me.
4. Extra small screwdriver sucks. Again I’d like a better one , maybe with a screw in tip with Phillips on one side and standard on the other. And maybe a little smaller. I don’t know if I can fix eyeglasses with this one. It should work for key fobs however. A stand alone micro screwdriver would be easy if they ditched the serrated blade and moved the file to its place.
Another option would be in the scales like they do with the tweezers on the Swiss army style leatherman.
5. It’s kind of expensive.
All in all I’d give this an 8 out of 10 for this size MT.

The biker
Phil, their leader, a big burly man of 53, gets off his Harley, walks through a group of gawkers, past the State Trooper who was trying to talk her down off the railing, and says "Hey Baby . . . whatcha doin' up there on that railin'?
She says tearfully, "I'm going to commit suicide!
While he didn't want to appear "sensitive," Phil also didn't want to miss this "be-a-legend" opportunity either so he asked, "Well, before you jump, Babe . . . why don't you give ol' zPhil here your best last kiss?"
So, with no hesitation at all, she leaned back over the railing and did just that . . . and it was a long, deep, lingering kiss followed immediately by another even better one.
After they breathlessly finished, Phil gets a big thumbs-up approval from his biker-buddies, the onlookers, and even the State Trooper, and then says, "Wow! That was the best kiss I have ever had! That's a real talent you're wasting there, Sugar Shorts. You could be famous if you rode with me. Why are you committing suicide?"
"My parents don't like me dressing up like a girl."
It's still unclear whether she jumped or was pushed.

IF I had known THEN, what I know now...
and
while I have had pretty good life, a wife who loves me and kids who don't hate me... and am retired and living in the north...and I got to experience things that most men dream about having that kind of experience, BUT...
I look back and if I knew then what I know now,
I would have continued on with my flying, got more tickets and would have wound up in ALaska flying the bush... and understand I would never have had my wonderful wife and kids...
and
Might have had an ALaska accident some where along the way, maybe not, but I know if I had they still would have found me with a big smile on my face.
Over the years in LE I took a sort of nonscientific poll of lawyers I came to know.
When I asked them that question, and finished "Would you still have gone to law school and become a lawyer?" Better than 70% of them said "NO", they never would have gone. BUT, they had invested all that money and time and just couldn't bring themselves to leave. Lots of regrets..
Anyone else got a hindsight life choice they would have taken had they known?
IF I had known THEN, what I know now...
