    Need help with an id. Anyone know this brand? Looks very much like Trophy of K&C

    That is a good guess, if I could see the face, I would agree. Early version Regal Miniatures is definitely a distinct possibility.

    CTSS September 20, 2026

    Rock n Roll. Already looking and planning for this show! Every year, I try to top what I took the year before. I usually sell at least 1 one of a kind item at this show that just doesn't fit in my own collection anymore. I believe this year I will be bringing a tabletop Diorama from the late...

    Gettysburg 2026

    Visited the show today and it was really well attended from what I saw. There were some terrific displays, Nate's Garage had some really cool pieces, if I had any more room in that era, I would have bought quite a bit. Lots of varied items and vendors. Matt from HB had a steady stream of...

    Things that I really like

    I am seeing them in San Antonio again on this new tour. Great place to see Maiden, lots of dedicated fans. My Texas family are into them, so we are going down there. I last saw them in San Antonio 2 years ago, it was closing night of their USA tour. They perform and have a stage set that is...

    Things that I really like

    In the irony that is life, Iron Maiden will not attend the Rock HOF induction ceremony as the date is in between 2 dates of their Australian Tour. Their statement said, they are not going to put off their fans who are holding tickets and reschedule those concerts. IMO, this is a rare move that...

    And there you have a crystal clear definition of the United States of America's progressive income tax code! TD

    Things that annoy me

    Not to beat a dead horse that this is - my gripe with National News does not fall on party lines. They all suck. And I say that nicely. I am not saying they are fake in anyway, what I am saying is, they are written to whatever targeted audience politically pays their bills through...

    Things that annoy me

    Where did I say the word "fake". I didn't. What I said was a very clear and factual statement regarding National News, if you will notice, I did NOT indicate which National News, I was including them all. I am really getting pissed off the more I read your post and the conclusions and...

    Things that annoy me

    My last post on this subject as I am sure it is boring to others, it is boring me. That said, this article is complete crap. First, let's talk about tip income. FACT - 50% of tip income is unreported in the restaurant industry - nearly all cash tips go unreported. SO, to me, any tax benefit...

    Things that annoy me

    Mike What you posted is not correct. The top fifth of households pay the majority of the tax burden overall. I already posted this, but the supposed Trump Tax breaks in 2016 actually raised the top fifth in some cases due to the loss of itemized deductions (which was partially restored in...

    Things that annoy me

    Ok, while on the soapbox, let's address another myth. The economy is in the toilet. No its not. It is actually doing rather well when you analyze the last decade starting 2015. Average wages are much higher, spending is much higher, lending power is fairly well backed by assets. The economy...

    Things that annoy me

    Since I am a practicing CPA, I feel the need to comment on the tax breaks/law: A. No tax on overtime. For most of the folks working overtime are below all of the limitations, so they are receiving a direct benefit. It is mathematically beneficial to those earning overtime. B. No tax on tips...

    US/Israel Launches Op Epic Fury Against Iran

    Agree wholeheartedly with base statement. Here is another issue that burns me - Lebanon is controlled by the Iranians, so you can't say you want a cease fire and continue to attack Israel. What do you think Israel is going to do??? And you have an idiot channel on tv saying Israel are the bad...
