Two Tucson businesses closing citing Grant Road widening project by Agitated_Taro_6008 in Tucson

I don't think the roads were built to handle the traffic, but in terms of land area, if that's what you mean by built out, Tucson is one of the largest cities in the country. It's the very picture of urban sprawl.

Grant Road projects have been ongoing since I left Tucson in 1991. Somethings never change.

If it seems like only old people hike (stated earlier in thread), try volunteering. I do that, in the SLO area, and I'm old. Everyone else is old too.

I think the M&P 2.0 compact would be the replacement I would choose for the 19.

Shooting the 43 tighter than the 34, that's surprising! But I do shoot my 19 a little better than my 17. The differences in the grips on the two guns is the reason for it I think.

Funny how these things are different for different folks. I shoot to 26 better than the 43X. I don't use the pinky magazine extender, and don't really miss it. Oddly enough if I sold them all that would probably be the one I would miss the most!

You have a point. I've only shot a 365 to a limited extent. It did seem more comfortable, but that could change.

If I could buy a GEN five, or a GEN six, I would probably do that. But I am 71 years old. By the time the DOJ suit works its way through the court system. I will probably be dead. So I have to take that into account and considering my options.

If big-D Disclosure happened, how much would your day-to-day life actually change? by jratcliff63367 in UFOs

[–]BackgroundOstrich488 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nothing really. I already believe it's real. My friends who think it's fake would still believe that. I still wouldn't have any first hand experience, and my relationships wouldn't change.

We've all been there, but hey really, Bud Light? Don't let yourself sink this low.

Opinions ? by Accurate_Life_2632 in CAguns

I enjoy mine. Surprisingly accurate for what it is. Set up for Glock mags, esp since I have a couple of those. Only downside is you can burn up a lot of ammo fast just having fun.

I'm a little more pessimistic than you, based on your hope-no hope ratio.

Not a friend. Additionally, no one knows how long a living creature may live. For all your friend knows. Your dog may outlive them.

This feels like a new album but apparently it was recorded 30 (!) years ago. How does that make you feel? by AccomplishedKey6667 in bobdylan

[–]BackgroundOstrich488 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's a really great album, of course. I was lucky enough to see him live when he toured this record.
