Defensively outside of arm strength Arrambide and Serna are basically high school caliber catchers. They receive and frame pitches like a high school catcher. Especially with strikes/balls consistently popping out of their mitts. It’s laughable.

I think there are MANY high school catchers that receive and frame pitches better than do Arrambide and Serna.

So who should conservative voters in LA vote for, Cassidy, Letlow or Fleming? :confused:

Get out and support FLEMING......it will be glorious to have Cassidy gone!

I live in extreme N LA, a mile or so from AR. I've been ready for a long to send Cassidy. Letlow's had little coverage up here, except for the fact that Trump endorsed. Fleming is from N LA so I naturally know a little more about him. Having said, anti-Fleming tv claiming ads basically claiming he's pro open border have started getting a lot of air time the past few days. I've not yet done my research on that topic. I suspect there's some misrepresentation going on. Would anyone like give me the real story about this? :confused:

Sorry to hear about the relationship you had w/ your dad. I hope you get something worked out w/ the gun that makes you satisfied. A long time ago (prob about '78 or '79) I bought a "Chuckster" for my cousin in Magnolia, AR. The gun was on sale at the TG&Y near my home in Monroe, LA. Many of y'all aren't familiar w/ TG&Y, but it was basically an inexpensive variety/dime store. It was on sale for $49. I walked out the door w/ the one having the best trigger. After putting an inexpensive scope on it and working on the trigger, it was pretty accurate. He killed a lot of squirrels w/ it. I remember he also killed a coyote on one of our squirrel hunts. He hunted the creek bottom to the south and I went north. Some of season deer dogs came through chasing a coyote. He quickly ended the race. We strapped the coyote to a limb and hauled it out. Unfortunately, the south end of the coyote was pointed my direction. I found out that day how bad a coyote stinks! :lol:

Farrah Fawcett was drop dead gorgeous. When I went to college, the dorm rooms didn't have tv's. Each floor of the dorm had a game room w/ one 17" black and white tv. I took a break from studying to watch only one tv show, every week......"Charlie's Angels." While we didn't have a tv in the dorm room, my roommate DID have the wall poster of FF in the red one-piece swimsuit. I've read it's the best selling wall poster of all time. She picked out the pose, suit, etc herself.

Bundy himself actually blamed pornography when he was being interviewed while on death row.

Yeah, Christian family/marriage counselor James Dobson was the last person to interview Bundy. Yes, Bundy attributed a lot his problems to pornography. Dobson had a number of popular books in the 80's-90's and a long running radio series, "Focus on the Family." Strangely, Dobson also performed CPR on Pistol Pete Maravich when he collapsed taking a break during a recreational basketball game w/ Dobson and his friends. Dobson had invited Pete to speak at his church's men's symposium. Dobson and friends regularly played basketball at the church's gym. Dobson invited Pete to play some games w/ them. He suffered his fatal cardia arrest when they took a water break.

The DNA that was developed throughout the review of the case could also prove helpful in further investigation into Bundy's crimes. A detective with the Utah County Sheriff's Office says that they have been able to share their DNA profile with other departments.

They added that they believe that profile will result in the closing of another case in the near future, but they didn't specify which case.

Apparently the "CSI" mentality whereby DNA is needed to conclusively solve a crime was already in place many years ago, even though Bundy confessed to the crime. I hope this brings closure to the family, but I suspect they made peace years ago when Bundy confessed.

Don’t forget Press Maravich, who just so happened to bring along his son…: a kid named Pete.

Don't forget Tamarcus Cooley, as well. He had a pretty solid season last year at safety.

No response yet, but in all fairness, the phone call was made on Friday and messages sent on Saturday. All of this is very recent, but since I didnt get a call from him, now I am having to run him down.

It may very well be a simple matter of miscommunication, but it "smells" bad to me. Given the fact he's had your gun for months, he's had plenty of time to have contacted you, then or now. I'd make daily text messages, emails, FB posts/messages and voice mails. If you don't get a satisfactory response shortly, I'd start mentioning the local Sheriff's Dept in your texts/messages/voicemail. Good luck.
