Can't speak on binoculars but Chinese camera lenses and other camera gear have improved drastically over the past few years.


China has some of the most advanced manufacturing equipment in the world. They cannot make a pair of $30 binoculars that are worth a sh!t.

The raw materials that shoes, purses and clothes are made from are cheap. High end brands you are paying for name only.

My good Bushnell binoculars broke. (I like watching birds.) Bought some cheap ones on Amazon for $31 and they are better than the expensive ones that broke.


Not saying your cheap binoculars were not better than you good binoculars. But your “good” binoculars that you replaced were not good either. Good glass is not cheap and there is no such thing as good binoculars for $30.

what is backstory?


The article specifically stated that “Brandon Miller … and Kai Spears” were in the car that was struck by bullets and characterized Spears as being at the scene of the shooting

Kai Spears was not at the scene.

Bring A Trailer
My dad was picking up parts at a tractor dealership about 10 miles from our farm and got in the wrong truck and drove it all the way back to our shop. The guy who owned the truck knew my dad so he drove my dads truck to our place and got his truck.
They are the same make model and color trucks.

Kyle Busch kind of did the same thing. His death was totally preventable.

If you know some farmers they have access to a chemical called Valor (flumioxazin) that is used on soybeans and cotton that works pretty good on floating algae mats. Probably need to put a surfactant with it. I assume it is a lot cheaper than the aquatic version.

Anybody heard anything about this boat?

I read it. Kind of a major difference is that he dies at the end. That’s kind of rough n the sequels.

So what is going to be the sought after manufacturer? Springfield Armory, Winchester, Harrington and Richardson or Thompson-Ramo Wooldridge (TRW)?

I assume Springfield because of the rarity.

roadcasting wheat onto a disked pasture for winter grazing absolutely has been a normal farming practice.


No it hasn’t ever been normal to broadcast wheat on disked ground in August. Your “friend” didn’t do it either in August and have lush fields.
In 1933 Roosevelt required that all citizens and banks had to turn their gold over to the Federal Reserve in exchange for paper dollars at the set rate of $20.67 (later raised to $35) per ounce. That gold is worth $4450 per ounce today. What is your dollar worth?
