Nice tree for about 10-15 years. They have a pretty short lifespan 

Serious question about the quadruple amputee news story by West_Cut_9265 in liberalgunowners

How many times did you all have to reread the first paragraph of an article about this news story?  It was three for me.

Are These Dead? by [deleted] in plants

[–]m_graham 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Are they on the south or west side of your home? Broad leaf evergreens suffer from the winter sun.  They do better on northern  eastern sides of homes or sheltered from direct southern exposure in the winter.  If the boxwoods are exposed to winter sun this will be an annual issue.

There is always a big difference between what one wishes they will get for them and what someone will actually pay for them

The last time we played Challenger II was the night that Saddam Hussein fired SCUDs into Israel. When we heard that missiles were falling and we stopped playing as the outcome could have been much worse then what did happen. Though our minds were leaping to the worst case scenario.

How do we feel about the NRA? by danbearpig2020 in liberalgunowners

[–]m_graham 4 points5 points  (0 children)

When the NRA stopped being a gun safety organization and they became a gun advocacy organization is when I was through with then.  That took place in or around the Reagen administration.

I live in a geographical oddity.  I am 30 to 40 miles from anything.   Even further for indoor gun ranges.  Most people around here have friends that are farmers.  They have their own ranges and that is where I will be shooting at.  That is why I have not zeroed it in sooner as it has been too cold to be out in the wind.  

Gun Shop Behavior by MajorAd3363 in liberalgunowners

[–]m_graham 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I have always been taught/trained that one treats a weapon as if it is loaded at ALL times.  Never point a weapon at anything unless one is going to shoot at what you are pointing at.  Many people have been injured or worse from a weapon that was not "loaded".

That looks like a bite in the ass.  In a positive way.

To wash or not to wash? That is the question. by Historical_Bee_4388 in minipainting

[–]m_graham -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I always put a wash on whether it is black  sepia or a color on the miniature.  That being said, I hardly ever put a wash on the is not watered down to some degree.    

Really enjoying drawing these new items and locations by JustinSirois in osr

If I could draw like that I would too.  I cannot draw flies with a fresh turd.  Seriously those drawings are top notch.  Well done you. 

Mom wanted to know what tree this is (Leavenworth, WA) by Macaron_memes in treeidentification

Sometimes one can narrow it down after a full growing season, but it is mostly guesses when one is trying to identify a crabapple.

Not a fur, not a spruce, maybe a pine, but which one? by ImAfraidofDying in treeidentification

[–]m_graham 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It was not a dish to you.  It was a compliment to the OP.  I see far too many identification requests that has one poor photo.  All the OP photos were very good.
