Your most ignored rule
Testify! I'm native born Texan and my family always put beans in our chili. Of course, I come from "old NO money" and my folks had a lot of kids. The beans made the chili go further.- Greybeard

Hank Shaw - “Boarderlands” cookbook
Sounds like the food I grew up on. Looking forward to checking it out. I like Shaw's recipes but I'm usually too lazy to go to the extreme detail he does. I'll take his recipes and make them way simpler. They still come out good.- Greybeard

What won't you hunt?
I'm always seeing in our public hunt catalogs these "youth hunts". I have no desire to hunt youths.- Greybeard

Blending powders
I wonder how blending powders might work in a muzzleloader. One application that would come to mind is blending a little 777 with BH 209. That might get BH 209 to ignite reliably in a sidelock. Some muzzleloader shooters do a duplex load where they might load some FFF powder first with FF to top...- Greybeard

Sorry to my Subaru brethren
I have an 08 Tundra as well. One thing to do on these is to make sure the coolant has been replaced and done frequently. The 5.7 3UR-FE engines are starting to blow head gaskets on ones that didn't have the coolant frequently changed. The coolant turns acidic after time and eats away at a tiny...- Greybeard

LA Authorities Encouraging Nutria Harvest
I've eaten nutria in gumbo. Wasn't bad but you can throw about anything into gumbo and make it taste pretty good. The exception would be coot. Coot gumbo is not good. I don't think anything would make those dang things taste good.- Greybeard

Practicing bear defense shooting
That looks like a real hoot. You could change that to all kinds of fun targets. Bigfoot, a methhead with a sharpend screwdriver, crazy redheaded ex-girlfriend, ect.- Greybeard

Help my inner Jeremiah Johnson... just got a new muzzleloader
I've got a Thompson Center .54 Hawken that is the most fun you can have with your pants on. It has a 1:48 twist but I shoot patched round ball almost exclusively. The best load for mine is thinner patch and 85 grains of Swiss ffg, although I'll use 777 if I'm out of real bp. Cleans up easier anyway.- Greybeard

Free Range Pork in Louisiana
For the price of a NR license and an Annual Public Hunting permit, you can chase them year around on National Forest land in East Texas with no tags and no limits. And there are a bunch of them!- Greybeard
