My wife and I are outdoorsy-lite types, but we camp and fish. At one point in our lives we were both working retail, and it was way easier to rely on our own blades over the cheap crap work gave us. ...

re: Is the pocket knife a lost art?

I carry one with me everywhere for 2 reasons...a knife is a useful tool, and "stray strapped or get clapped". I don't think I'll beat someone with a gun, I'm not a complete fool. But a knife can be a useful deterrent in many situations. That being said. Take it easy grandpa. If all you do is bit...
Many of those studies were also funded by the sugar industry. Sugar and beef have been biting at each other for years when really, excess is the largest problem. That and non-holistic farming practices. ...
It makes you wonder how much of the "issues"associated with eating meat have to do with meat by itself or rather what yhe animals are eating. I don't know that reasearch has been done into the health factor of say, grass fed and finished beef vs grainfed, or pastured pork and chicken vs grainfed. ...
L-Tyrosine helped me and my wife, but we both have underfunctioning thyroids, which is where tyrosine is produced/used in the body. If you have had bloodwork done to establish vitamin/hormone levels, I would start there, and periodically get re-assessed. If you're concerned about thyroid functio...
It may be the kidneys shutting down. Happened to our 10 year old cattle dog. She had cysts on her hips, lost her appetite, amd even her desire to drink. If your vet ran labs and they came back normal though...I dunno, sounds odd. But you're doing what you can, so take heart in the comfort you can gi...

I mean, if you base his teachings on the letters that are only attributed to him, I could see why you'd think that. But Paul didn't write all of the letters that bear his name in the Bible. Biblical scholarship has already determined that based on the age and tone of those letters in relation to the...
Some people are innately violent, male or female. Let her be what she is, but teach her about acceptable boundaries. It's possible she grows out of it, but if she doesn't, she should know how and when to handle herself. Better she understand that then hate you for trying to break her of it. ...
Y'know for a generation that crows about how tough and unoffended you are, y'all sure do bitch a lot. ...
It has to do with that to some degree, but the oil companies dredged numerous canals through the marsh for drilling knowing it would significantly increase erosion and they did not care....

I have a friend who is a burly man and is demi. Obvs not that many people are, but to try to act like it's just women is false. Tbh i'm not surprised more dudes don't talk about it. Just look at the reactions om this board, ffs....
Benadryl. Eta: My bad. I did not read thoroughly, and gave a boneheaded suggestion. Wife and I have had success with sleepytime extra teas, which combine herbs like valerian and chamomile into a pretty tasty tea. Plus the warmth is pretty relaxing, but as always, ymmv. I dunno how natura...

It means you don't wanna bang someone unless you're attracted to who they are as a person. It's always existed, but that term helps to identify the difference from people who will bang just because they find someone hot (aka most of the board). It's not that hard to understand, y'all are just du...

Being committed doesn't stop a person from attraction. Just means you don't act on it if you're monogamous. ...
