  1. shes old and alone.  She probably needs, or will one day, the occasional heavy lifting and odd job done.  Be there for her?

  2. I want to thank you guys again for all the prayers. My son survived an episode where he stopped breathing and with me trying to help him, he lost all signs of a pulse and stopped breathing at all. He was completely limp, turning blue with no signs of life. I performed CPR for around 15 minutes while talking with 911 on speaker phone who helped me keep focused. I checked 3 times for a pulse and there was none...none at all. EMT's arrived and one of them took over the CPR from me after what seemed like an eternity with me drenched in sweat and I prayed earnestly for the Lord to not take him from us. They began doing their thing but it didn't look good at all. After about 45 minutes with the help of the EMT's and God Almighty he did regain his vital signs and tonight is back home recovering. To those of you that replied in this post, please pray that God would open his eyes and heart to the reality of His existence. Those of you that know Him, know what I mean.

  4. I wouldn't do a gift card since she doesn't need the money. Maybe donate to a charity and send her some flowers and a nice card. Sent from my SM-G930V using Tapatalk

  9. Got by to meet Mike357 last weekend. Picked up some nice wines and some Purity vodka to try. Every body should stop by when in Knoxville. Great selection and prices. Plus he's a nice guy.

  14. Don't expect "Hollywood" reactions to being shot with a pistol...ANY pistol . If you shoot someone you may well have to shoot them several times with a handgun to change their channel. Some people are just tough SOBs and will not stop fighting until they are dead. Plan accordingly.

  16. Jesus, please make us an instrument of your peace; where there is hatred, let us sow love. Where there is injury, pardon. Where the is doubt, faith. Where there is despair, hope. Where there is darkness, light, And where there is sadness, joy. Grant that we may not so much seek to be consoled as to console. To be understood as to understand. To be loved as to love. For it is giving that we receive. In pardoning that we are pardoned, And in dying that we are born into eternal life. Glory be to the Father, Son and Holy Ghost.

  17. Sounds like weapons will become the new tea.  Maybe they should tax the 1st, truth 1%, lies would be 25%, politicians would have the deficit paid off in no time.

  18. This program is a "feel good " program dreamed up by our VA, to get he monkey off their back due to the lengthy wait times for an appointment. It's as useless as tits on a boar hog. By the time you jump thru all the qualifying hoops, you're dead in the water. I have a card my self, does fairly well to pick your teeth with.

  19. Choice program was forced upon VA to blunt the blows about wait times to see a VA doctor. From what I've read the number of doctors has diwdled due to the rate they pay and long, long payment time.    Made for good PR but seems to be just another half-assed VA plan

  20. Here's a good story that rattles me up. So I live about 1.5 hours from Johnson City Mtn Home hospital. But they won't send me there because they say I'm an employee there, (I'm not.) So they make my appointments in Nashville, 4 hrs away. While fighting the VA over me not working there. I asked them if I could get a choice card since YOU, the VA are sending me 4 hrs away. Well nope, can't get a choice card because I live 1.5 hours away from a full hospital. WTF is wrong with these people.

  29. Should you need to make a claim, some of the requirements include needing receipts for them, pics and descriptions, professional assessments and valuations of all items, and of course putting up with the letters telling you that you need more coverage.

  30. $2500 is a good start I guess..? Yes, your assumption is correct, they want you to buy more. Check with your homeowners for a rider, they may be as or cheaper than that stuff.

  31. It is their way of getting out of liability in case you shoot someone on bus by accident or not. Tour Busses now have a huge target on them now with Willie/Rappers Drugs&Guns and are under a microscope. Example Feds/Local LE now use Log Book and a dozen other reasons to pull driver over for inspection on road or weigh station and run dogs. If they ask any weapons ??  If you lie you stay for jail for false information,tell truth,bus company boots you off rest of tour. to make a short story long this is just one example.

  35. Are you going on tour with a band? If so, that's pretty ridiculous that they would tell you no. The artist I work for and all people I've worked with feel safer knowing I'm carrying always. Is this a country band? If so, how disappointing..

  36.  It's my understanding that the old models were made on the same frame as the 44 mag super blackhawk so you should be good to go.

  41. Update guys: I went to O'Reilly this morning, the first chance I've had since the tow. Picked up the VSS for 90 bucks. I had a little sticker shock since it's the size of a spark plug. But it's not the price of a rebuild so I'm good with that. Jacked up the truck, changed it out and dropped back on its tires. Drive around the neighborhood one time and it shifted every single gear as it should!!! Now I'm not counting ALL my chickens as I haven't fully tested it. But I'm very happy, said my thank you prayer and I'm off to drive it back to O'Reilly for some windshield wiper blades. It's a road test and also my passenger blade looks like I'm fishing for bass. Thanks so much for everyone's help and I'll post back up after the road trip!

  44.   I blasted some water filled milk jugs with the Speer Gold Dot .22 WMR ammo as well as the Hornady Critical Defense .22 WMR ammo out of both my NAA mini (1 5/8 inch barrel) and my Heritage Rough Rider (6.5 inch barrel.)  The Hornady was kind of disappointing out of the mini (didn't really 'expand' much - had some deformation on one side and that was about all - made it into the third jug) but did well out of the Rough Rider (fully expanded.)  I was very impressed with how the Gold Dot did out of the mini (fully expanded - in fact, looked just like the picture on the label - and was found stuck partway through the rear face of the third jug) and it did fine out of the Rough Rider (I remember that the Hornady did slightly better from the RR although I can't remember exactly how at this point.)  I now keep the mini loaded with Gold Dots and the Rough Rider loaded with the Hornady.    The Rough Rider mostly does 'possum in the chicken coop' duty and will render even a big possum DRT with either a head shot or a behind-the-shoulder heart/lung shot - and possums are not easy to kill.  For comparison, I once shot a possum which was in the coop three times in the brain pan with .22 LR Stingers out of a 5 inch S&W .22A (trying to get it to die quickly and not suffer) and it still took it a while to finally die a much uglier death than I would prefer (which is actually the reason I bought the Rough Rider to begin with.)  I have never tried it but I imagine the NAA with the Gold Dots would do just as well as the Heritage with the Hornady.    It isn't currently my first pick for a primary to carry for 'social situations' (although I do sometimes carry just the mini when nothing larger will do) but the .22 WMR - especially with ammo such as the Gold Dot - is IMO certainly more than 'just a slightly more powerful .22LR' as some people believe.  Throw in that many of the 'full sized' snubbies hold eight or nine rounds and there ain't a thing wrong with it, to my mind.

  46. Not sure what to think of that.  I don't have much of a problem disengaging the safety with my thumb but engaging it is another mattter.  At that angle it might be even more difficult to flip.
