About the song, and the cars and the years between: a new tradition for me are Sunday dinners and then studio time with the songwriter I used to tour with, in the '70's. He has books of songs written down the years. I am now his muse in a way, as we peruse them before and after dinner. We both were there, when. It's like going through your old family photo album, except musically. They're on the page, or on the iPad and are the songs' records, but then very shortly they live and breathe again. Very comforting. Just saying.

[@hickok45]

I can imagine. Those would have definitely been memorable times, writing, touring, and singing for audiences. And, by the way, your real name is safe with me. If people knew Paul McCartney was a gun nut, many would quit listening to your music. :-)

I traded it for a Winchester pre 64 Model 70 in 300 H&H magnum. I wish I still had both of them. I have several 357 revolvers that I like to shoot. All are newer SS models.

It's always such a joy watching you/your videos Mr. Hickok! Though I'm '60' ('ish!), you remind me of Papa in so many ways. He too was a Teacher, Construction worker, Father, Tutor, Friend, and when he had to be, Disciplinarian (And boy, did I and my three older brothers push him into THAT role, far too many times!) ;-) He began teaching me about firearms when I was four. Yes, '4'. I'd seen him, my older brothers, even Momma (And all their assorted friends, and family), shooting/hunting/coming back from hunts, and had the itch to shoot from my earliest memories. Decades later, now an 'Elder,' still an American Citizen, USMC Veteran, and a person who just enjoys chilling out and enjoying what Life has to offer, when I can? Seeing you enjoying all the many platforms you get ahold of (Yes, I haz the 'Envy!'), and your own laid-back, easy-going manner is truly a marvel. The usual chaos that surrounds this topic (Firearms), is usually utterly absent in your channel, and for that I am truly grateful. Yes, we can't ignore the outside world, but that doesn't mean we have to talk about things in a heated manner, ALL the time! So, 'Thank you,' good Sir!

I have a three inch k6s in my woods kit too. Frankly I don’t like the new external hammer models. My dad was a business guy, who taught me value investing in individual stocks. Funds are for the fund manager’s benefit. Buy solid stocks and live off of the dividends and pay 15% capital gains rates!

[@hickok45]

Just my opinion, based on my experience and research, but I stay away from managed funds, for sure. Low cost index funds are the way to go. Dividends are fine as long as a person doesn't get caught up in making all their choices based on dividend distributions. The stock or fund is basically just distributing a portion of the companies value, similar to our selling part of the fund of company stock. All that said, the biggest mistake people make is in NOT investing at all. Which funds, stocks, bonds, etc. is largely just tweaking the portfolio to get the optimal return. Even the person who makes very questionable investments in various funds or stocks is generally miles and miles ahead of the person who puts off investing for "tomorrow." :-)
