    Finding an Attorney...

    Maybe this would be better in the Legal section, but I figured there is an ST&T element to my question. My main question, is how does one wisely find an attorney? -The right attorney, as in one familiar with self defense cases, and possibly with trial experience. I ask specifically, because...

    Starlings...

    I hope the Hunting Venue is the best place for this, if not, my apologies. I've got a problem with some nuisance starlings nesting over my back patio. Over the patio is a corrugated-metal awning, and they nest there this time of year. The roof overhangs the awning by maybe 18"-24" as...

    On being prepared...

    Ok, this is not firearm related, so if this is inappropriate fro THR, or the S,T&T section, moderators, feel free to move/close at your discretion.

    Had a scare today...

    The back-story first. I was mowing the lawn earlier on the day, and left the attached-garage's door open as I came in to shower before leaving home. I knew I was going to be running out soon, so I payed no thought to leaving the garage Dior up. Also, we live in a cul-du-sac, so traffic is slim...
