    RDS are fine for some, until one gets past a certain yardage. Then for folks like me it's all (like a portion of my younger years) a blur. My glass guy said bring my pistol in (unloaded) and he'd set me up with lens for shooting. Bifocals did the trick. YESMV
    The astigmatism in my right eye is much worse than the left and shooting with an RDS has me averaging the multiple dots to make hits...the brighter it is, the worse the multiple images are.

    Best thing about mixing your own drinks is you have full control of how much alcohol goes in them.

    Wow....the lady decided to check out. Leaving the rehab to go home and stop taking meds, stop eating, etc......leaving the family to watch her die at her home.

    There's no way ya can't respect her wishes, but holy crap that's a tall bill for the family absorb on top of all the emotion and stuff going on already. Holy tough times ahead.

    On the rare occasion I pollute even my cheap JD with diet coke, you should see the look I get from the spousal unit when the double highball, filled with ice, is filled ~ 2/3 to 3/4 with said JD before adding the foul dilution agent.

    What, me?

    Just a highball glass? She gives me the stink eye when I pull out the 30oz yeti tumbler and start pouring in the black rum. Then asks in a snarky voice, how was your day dear?
