    Flashlights advice

    I am loving my SureFire Stiletto! Light weight, flat rather than round, USB charge, two on/off switches, 3 light modes and will clip onto the bill of a baseball cap for an impromptu headlamp!

    Bad elf gps for the iPad

    I find that it locates the satellites fairly quickly and has adequate accuracy for my purposes. It does stick out precariously from the iPad.

    What's my First Love going to be? Land Cruiser or Land Rover?

    Thank you for sharing this story. I am not clear on one point: were your thumbs wrapped inside the steering wheel or were they out?

    Duluth clothing

    I have several pairs of both the Ex Officio Give and Go and the Duluth boxers. The Ex Officio looks and feels like a higher quality boxer. It feels smoother and lighter. I don't think that it IS lighter, but it feels slightly less bulky. The EO is $25 and I have an issue with paying $25 for...

    Work? What's that? I just retired. :-) Of course now I am as busy as when I was working, but I am doing things I enjoy! My wife is from Vancouver Canada and wants to be closer to her mom, so we are moving north. Looking forward to it and I will definitely look up the NWOS when we get settled...
