Remember: Elections have consequences. :wall:

Good for them. It's a frigging open air monument, no government services needed. Not mentioned in story, but they actually had guards on duty to keep visitors away, so it was manned by federal employees anyway. One congressman just saw on news said this had to be a decision directly from White House. http://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2013/oct/1/elderly-veterans-force-entry-wwii-memorial-defianc/ http://abcnews.go.com/Politics/world-war-ii-veterans-cross-memorial-barricades-shutdown/story?id=20432719 - OS

Found a frayed or mouse chewed spot on an electrical cord to my stereo receiver on night. Thought this is no big deal. I'll just cut the end off and put on a new plug rather than splice the cord. So I went and got a plug end, screwdriver, knife to trime the line ends, and a pair of wire cutters to cut the old plug off.    Now rather than move everything from the cabinet I had it sitting on, I decided to sit on the floor and do it there.   Got my tools in line, picked up the cord, and calmly cut it, ready to put the plug on.    Melted the ends off the wire cutters, fried my receiver, and knocked my ass across the floor.   I forgot to unplug it.  :stunned:  :squint:  :rofl:

Reloaded black powder cartridges. Nuff' said.   DaveS

No. If you want to act stupid on a bike in front of me on the street, thats fine, ill show you how much i appreciate it with my big truck. This is the same thing as back a few months ago the people were walking out onto the interstate to protest. Do it in front of me on the street and I WILL RUN YOU OVER without a second thought.

So we got together en masse today and our friend got a real kick out of it. He's been cheerful all day. So mission accomplished. Plenty of queball jokes to go around. We've also decided to call ourselves legion and only speak as a collective. "We would be happy to assist you."

Closing this one down. We'll start PM'ing pricing this afternoon. If you want to do something in the meantime, you can go register for an account over on CMT's site. Once we get everyone registered, we'll switch everyone to a TGO group from which you'll be able to pay for and fulfill your order for your choice of lowers, uppers and BCGs.

So long as all the people on welfare keep getting paid. Those people are the backbone of this country.

Just got our health insurance packet today for 2014. Our max out of pocket went up 18% and our weekly contribution went up 30% and they eleminated our HRA (Health Care Rembursment Account- free money we get for doing preventative visits). We are planning on having a baby next year we will max out our Out Of Pocket so we do have to take that into account. I did the math and we are going to see an increase of $3,300 for the year. I can not believe that my insurance is going to increase almost $300 a month. I went to the joke of a website for ACA and we do not qualify at all, we are eliminated for multiple reasons. I fudged some numbers on the site just to see what some of the policies look like. I found one that had similar benifits as ours and it is only $400 a month. I think it is INSANE that if we did not work as hard as we did to get where we are I could take home over $500 more a month through ACA. I should not have to pay more for insurance than people that get ACA for the same coverage. ACA should be bare minimum insurance kind of like all the "State required" car insurance. I think I will end here, I am so pissed right now I might send my BP through the roof and I now can't afford to go to the hospital.

You may invoke the wrath of TGO myth correction with this one. It simply isn't true that your tag is tied to your HCP.

I shouldn't say. I'm not sure the statute of limitations has passed.

Reloaded model rocket engines with black powder and a cannon fuse. Many police cars circling the block looking for the source of the explosion!

Sorry I missed your post earlier, I have been out hunting the closed parks. Had the whole place to myself. :) Yup.

Reagan.com. At least your info isnt sold to the highest bidder. $40 per year. And it would irritate every liberal you know. Sent from my PG06100 using Tapatalk 2

Your allegiance should be to whatever country you have decided to live in or were born into and decided to stay. Chances are, if your allegiance is elsewhere, you are up to no good. Freedom came and is still coming at a price so anyone that takes advantage of this countries freedoms and opportunities damn sure ought to love her. I think we're seeing the fruits of poor seeds being sown in our society today and they aren't tought how many lives have been given to make this country as great as she is and how to be respectful of that. This is all of course, my very own opinion and you know what they say about those huh.

Wow. I said they pledge I allegiance all thur school but never to a man. But to a country" One Nation Under God!!!!!!!!

She is a breath of fresh air at times, and easy on the eyes, 6.8.

Probably, but that is a constant. Not on hookers and blow though. The Secret Service has shown they don't follow through on payment with prostitutes. Pretty stingy when you consider the per diem rates they're pulling down.

Just goes to show that most criminals really are cowards.  At the first sign of opposition, they scatter like roaches when the light comes on.

Doe down! Got her at 7:30 this morning, dropped her off at Flowers, and headed to work....LATE!

  Carry permits have nothing whatsoever to do with the federal government, so I doubt they meant that even as dumb as they are on the subject of firearm law.   I don't think most of ATF is funded by yearly discretionary spending, but could be wrong. But for sure, if Obama or his minions think of it and can legally do it, I know they'd love to shut down the 4473 process. Just like he made the sequester hurt as much as he could by selective funding.   edit: here's a quote from NSSF:   "HOW GOVERNMENT SHUTDOWN WOULD AFFECT NICS AND ATF . . . In the event of a government shutdown on Tuesday, the FBI's NICS Section would remain fully operational and maintain normal business hours. However, ATF's Office of Enforcement Programs and Services (EPS) would effectively be shut down, operating with minimal staff."   Hope they're right.   - OS

Just watched this again and now I'm all worked up. One of the things that will get me spitting angry is a group of people picking on the perceived weak. They do it because they can. Mobs need to suffer the great equalizer of standard capacity magazines, then lets see how strong they are.

Best I can figure, the closest he came to making a bad decision was the amount of restraint he showed by not going all Carmageddon on the shitbags.

Just an observation; Felina is an anagram for finale Felina is the name of the "Mexican Girl" Marty sings about in El paso Fe-Li-Na  Iron-Lithium-Sodium Blood Meth and Tears

They original surrounded his vehicle and attempted to pull him out. That's why he ran them over. When 200 people are about to have their way with you, there is nothing AT ALL the victim can do wrong. He could have killed every last one of those wannabe biker douches and still been in the right. IMO, he should have been taking them out once he got back up to highway speed, and stayed in the highway until the cops showed up. If a gang surrounds me, on bikes otherwise, and make hostile intentions known I am indeed in fear for my life. Whatever their beef was, I'd make sure to them it wasn't worth it to f*** with me.

  No need for a military anymore, now that Oblamma is rimming the head knocker in Iran. He's gonna use his dynamic personality and wiggly tongue to render all armed conflict obsolete. :) 

I doubt that they let it last very long.  Being classed non-essential wouldn't bother me personally. I think folks might be amazed how small it could get if they were just carrying out the founders' vision.

I watched all the first video and part of the second, what it boils down to is LEOs being asked to enforce a stores policy or request again.   If the business wanted them to leave they should have just told them to leave, if for whatever reason the business representative did not want to "confront" them and chose to call the police, the officers could have simply told the patrons to leave.  There was no reason to detain them or check IDs unless they were suspected of some crime, which I did not hear or see mentioned.

I spent my high school days cruising in Flat River (now called Park Hills). Good times! Graduated from North County High School in Bonne Terre.

I almost jumped a cement drainage ditch on my 1978 RM 125C , that was about 40 ft wide. I hit the far inside wall and broke both my legs at the shin. I had six weeks in bed with sand bags tied to my ankles to reflect. Then some more months of casts. If I had only gave it more throttle ! I did a lot more stupid things on dirt bikes before and after, just didn't fail as bad as that one time. I would have been an internet hero in 1979. I rode a log across a creek and hit a tree on the other side, only cracked my helmet :)

My wife tells me I should write a book.  Most of it was between the age 14 and 18, but continued until about 22.   (climbed a Coal Silo 210 feet up, that was still under construction.)  not once, but about 3 times over a weekend.  Up the side and along the belt line.

Funny how you don't see them doing this kind of stuff in Tennessee. This is another example how NY laws which punish law abiding citizens does nothing but encourage criminals to run amok. Never in a million years would a wannabe biker gang of douches engage in all this crap on a Tennessee highway. There'd be a string of dead hoodlums on the road, which once again supports my theory that these people are all cowards who are only emboldened by the weak not defending themselves or having the ability to defend themselves.

I dunno', seems a little passe' to me... ;)   (On the other hand, if someone came out of the dark with a sword, charging and yelling at me, I'd probably passe' a corvette! :rofl: )

  Ever heard Charlie Brown's parents?

Not so sure about that, guess you could say I'm... On the fence.

I don't normally listen to or quote Sarah Palin, but this gem fell out of her mouth last night on Hannity: “President Obama, a couple of weeks ago when he was hell-bent on dropping bombs on Syria, he said America doesn’t do pinpricks. Well, we don’t do pinpricks, but sometimes we elect them.”

As I tell my wife often, you've got to express yourself clearly.   Use the correct and exact words for what you are trying to say.   And YES, I do pay dearly for that, every time I say something when she uses the wrong word or phrase.

I think he should have been arrested and charged with misdemeanor for disorderly conduct anyway. He is probably one of those busy bodies that has his nose stuck in everyone else's business and needs to be taught a lesson............jmho

Please tell me you are not the pilot!!

Whack em! That's all I've accomplished in my hunts so far. Smoked turkey breast will be good, but really wanting so smoke some summer sausage. All the deer I'd been seeing on cam have disappeared as of Friday night it appears. They aren't even showing their faces on any of 3 cams I have out! They will mess up though, and I will be waiting on them. Spent a total of 23 hours in the stand since opening morning and only have a turkey and one dear 'yote to show for it. Turkey at 5 yards and the coyote at 15. Coyote was stalking a fawn that had just passed with its momma. Craziest thing I've seen. Almost cat like. Hunkered down shoulders up like you see lions hunting. He never saw me stand and draw. Stuck him high between the shoulders. Spun for 20 seconds or so and lights out. Once I edit some film (gopro cam) I'll share it with y'all. Stay in the woods and stick em if ya can!

I sure wish our sitting POTUS would make a trip to that theater.

I hate for anyone to be put out of work. But if the .gov was run like a business with a bottom line a lot of these jobs would never exist in the first place.

I hope it's soon. I have started molding my mashed potato into lower shapes.

I have been trying to convince the wife to let me upgrade some things on the SUV, push bar, Bigger tires, runflats, and some mild suspension upgrades. I think this would be a good video to show her.

I just made it home and am very happy for it. 4,103.2 miles. That was a rough stretch and a great accomplishment for me. Now, I don't know that I would ever do it again.... :)

So, leaving to come back home at 7 am local time. I have basically spent about as much time here as it took me to get here. The ride and subsequent demands for my time have been very tiring. I do not think I should have mixed this amount of business with "the ride". C'est la vie. It will be a different route going home. We will head up to Denver to go home. We are planning to "only" ride 800 miles each day the first 2 days and finish on the 3rd. Wish me luck.

Been married 20+ years now, I know better than to tell my wife she needs to go to the gym :shake:
