Some Things Just Really Make You Shake Your Head

Jeff Moffitt @moffittjc (127563) • Gainesville, Florida 13 Jan

So I'm at the gas station yesterday gassing up my truck. As I'm standing there at the pump, a car pulls up to opposite side of me. I thought something seemed strange about the sound of the car, but I wasn't really paying...

She's a Better Shot Than Me!

Jeff Moffitt @moffittjc (127563) • Gainesville, Florida 5 Dec

In my last discussion I wrote about a mishap I had at the shooting range when I removed my flash suppressor off of the barrel of my semi-automatic rifle. The result was that I singed all the hair off my arms. Luckily, that was the...

A few mornings ago, as I was sitting in my kitchen enjoying a cup of hot coffee, I heard a very loud and distinct cry of a bird of prey. And VERY close. I immediately jumped up, went out the French doors to my back patio, and saw...

I saw this on social media the other day, and had a really good laugh about it. I shared it with my two kids, both of whom said, "Yeah, we would do that!" I love me some Buc-ees! And unfortunately, there isn't a lot of them and...
