GarandFan:

Now if anyone knew about strength of advertising, it was Oliver Winchester. "The gun that won the west!" Pfffttt!!!

Buck Manly, now there was an author! Very few ever knew of the depth of the affection he had for his horse.

Cowboy:

Ah! He was writing a book. I was wondering "What happened to Buck Manly? It'll be a best seller for sure.

Terwiliger:

GF:

Are you knocking Winchester or being facetious? Two of my favorite rifles are Winchester (although they're both bolts--not Henry designed--& I'm really disappointed that Browning basically destroyed the brand to favor their higher-priced wares, most of which I wouldn't even consider even if I did have the money).

GarandFan:

Come on T. "THE gun that won the West"? Just saying that Ollie was a marketing genius. But if you want to look at what the military was carrying at the time, it sure wasn't Winchesters. And most sodbusters were using shotguns.

john cox:

HEY COWBOY

Buck Manly is a man of many talents. When he's now busy skinning something, you can find banging away on his 1946 Royal, laying waste to dangling participles and split infinitives.

Terwiliger:

GF:

O.K.--I get it.

Although the military hasn't always been very swift in adopting new munitions, what they used is what they won with--& when they lost, it seems like it has always been due to REMF idiocy, either in strategy or acquisitions.

Between me and my husband we've owned more MP3 players over the years than I can count, including Sansas, iRivers, iPods (classic & touch), the Ibiza Rhapsody, etc. But, the last few years I've settled down to one line of players. Why? Because I was happy to discover how well-designed and fun to use the underappreciated (and widely mocked) Zunes are.

To get better variety of the thigh boots, there is no range better than the designer footwear range to look at. However, a single pair of designer thigh boot would be enough to burn holes in the pocket.

(There are other players worth considering out there, like the Sony Walkman X, but I hope this gives you enough info to make an informed decision of the Zune vs players other than the iPod line as well.)

Lets get out the vote for mayor of Revere. Vote early and vote often!

Thanks for your article. One other thing is that if you are promoting your property alone, one of the issues you need to be mindful of upfront is how to deal with house inspection reports. As a FSBO supplier, the key to successfully switching your property and saving money about real estate agent revenue is awareness. The more you understand, the softer your home sales effort is going to be. One area that this is particularly significant is home inspections.

I appreciate, cause I found just what I was looking for. You've ended my 4 day long hunt! God Bless you man. Have a nice day. Bye

Its like you read my mind! You appear to know a lot about this, like you wrote the book in it or something. I think that you could do with a few pics to drive the message home a little bit, but other than that, this is excellent blog. A great read. I will certainly be back.

Thanks a lot for sharing this with all of us you actually know what you are talking about! Bookmarked. Kindly also visit my website =). We could have a link exchange arrangement between us!
