    Honour Bound HB12C WW2 Sherman M4A1 Al Capone Tank

    I think the last one of these sold for nearly $800, it may have been even more. They were never plentiful and everyone wanted Capone. AND it is still one of IMO the best Sherman models out there. Tom

    RIP Robert Duvall

    Def one of the greats, loved nearly all of his movies. Still loved Days of Thunder and of course The Godfather. So many to choose from Tom

    Bourbon Lovers

    Pure luck. I was on the Eastern Shore and go into a Liquor store to get Bloody Mary Mix. While in there (they usually have all of the major brands including some real nice bottle, but usually shy on allocation), so the guy must have saw me looking at the better bourbons, comes over and says...

    Things that annoy me

    Jeeps are definitely over produced and your mileage may certainly vary. I like luxury brands, just not the 2 German ones. Honestly, Mercedes have never done anything for me personally and BMW, I owned one, night mare, and every one a buddy has owned, same thing. That said, I have one friend...

    Things that annoy me

    So, I can comment here and I am not making an opinion, more of a comment. My father in law bought a Camry (business car, he puts a lot of miles) and they replaced the other sedan with a Lexus. Honestly, other than creature comforts inside, when you see them from outside, I am not sure any real...

    Things that annoy me

    Agree with you both, this is the wife's ride this time. I tried telling her a F150 or larger would be ideal, she didn't buy it................I think she is going to be in some sort of small SUV, like I said, the car models are just not doing it. TD

    Things that I really like

    Will do. Trader Joes makes a spicy (fresh jalapeno peppers) pico (or salsa). Anyhow, what usually happens is it doesn't get fully eaten in a week, so come Sat. morning it goes in the pan with eggs, cheese and hard tortila! TD

    Things that I really like

    Spending a lot of my professional life in Texas, I have adopted Breakfast Tacos and Burritos. So many good choices, hard to live without now. I make the tacos when I am home now too. Do like migas, I make it a cheat way at home and it is delicious! TD

    Things that annoy me

    I don't have anything against a hybrid if it was the model of car I like, they do save gas expense for sure. Would I buy a full electric - no, that would not be for me, but a hybrid I would not shy away from if a car I wanted. Edit here, one of the only cars I would not get in a hybrid is a...

    Jason :) We have always had this debate! During those 175 days, the air conditioner is still cheaper to run!!! Tom

    Things that annoy me

    I am a car guy. I like big engines whether it be a truck, bike or car. I really don’t care about the gas mileage nor noise. I pick one because I like it. I am the one paying for it so that is that. Regarding the idling switch, I have turned that off immediately after I had a car in rush hour...

    N.F.L. 24-25 Season

    I hear ya, unfortunately there is just no comparison. Again, and its only my opinion, but there are plenty of other places where the sun shines a lot that don't cost that much, just nuts. It shows you how much some celebrities really make that they can afford to live there. Tom

    N.F.L. 24-25 Season

    Brad Since this was once my business and I am still a CPA, NONE of the other Jock taxes come even close to Californias. I am not painting it any way other than the truth. A lot of States have a tax (all of which are not right honestly and they are money grabs), but again, NONE are any where...

    N.F.L. 24-25 Season

    George I posted this in another thread, but this may make you happier re the outcome of Darnold winning: If anyone wonders if the horrors about California are true - just google NFL players and what happens to non resident ones when they play there. Example - Sam Darnold, wins a Superbowl, his...

    Things that annoy me

    If anyone wonders if the horrors about California are true - just google NFL players and what happens to non resident ones when they play there. Example - Sam Darnold, wins a Superbowl, his base salary is about 175K for that win. His tax bill due to California's punitive tax code against...

    Things that annoy me

    Paddy Don't take this wrong way, I am obviously not a fan of a lot of politicians on both sides of the aisle including current office holders and it is going to sound like I am picking on your State. The President at the end of the day has little to do on your State and its real estate value in...

    Things that annoy me

    I am going to ask a question I know the answer too, but this is annoying to me. My State Governor Wes Moore is doing a National Town Hall on National Issues which will air on CBS on 2/15 with Norah O'Donnell...................WTF. My State is knee deep in Economic Mire, Crime and you name it...

    N.F.L. 24-25 Season

    Ok, was traveling til after halftime so only saw last quarter and a half.....................................DUD. That said, remember what I said all season long (regardless of who was playing or I was in favor of), the NFL product on the field STINKS. It did so for most of the year until a...
