  1.   I just can't like that enough... (The smiley face was a great touch too)
  2.   Yeah, it's worth it. Difference between getting on a bike in your drive way and heading out in to traffic and taking two-three days with a riding instructor in a parking lot learning the basics of stop, go and turn.
  3. Got so that you could toast a marsh-mellow from all the radar hitting you... Those guys would pull you over just for looking fast.   I don't like all the crowds there, just too many bikes whizzing around for me to keep track of.
  4. Never had a problem seating them, had some give me fits trying to get 'em out. I think that was my fault as I had tried soaking them in Simple Green instead of tumbling them. Let them sit for a few days to dry and they were super glued in place... Had to tumble the lot and they freed up just fine.
  5.   The chase bike is a red goldwing, had that guy pass me going up early last Fall. I got it somewhere on helmet cam, he was really riding that wing. I waved him through my lane and he blew the chrome off the left side on my Harley.   I generally avoid that area but it's located near some beautiful riding
  6. Termites like to get under concrete, rocks and such. Concentrate on those areas around that deck as well as the house foundation.
  7. Heck, anybody would be wore out taking a tree down with only that. I'd say you are in better than average condition to get it done as quick as you did. If you are worried about it though, I'll go room and board and you can tighten up by trimming my fruit trees, I just hate pruning trees
  8. Dropped the pan on my 99 Ford, still had the cherry in it at 167K. Pan was full of crap and the filter definitely plugged. Pulls and shifts allot better but I'm budgeting for a new tranny now. My daughter is driving my old Corolla with 200k on it, fluid changed every 50k or so. It starts acting funny when it's time

    Body Found

    I used to dive Kentucky lake, in the back of my mind I always feared grabbing a body by the ankle in the dark... Gave me shivers to read that story, hope the kids will do okay.
  10. From what little hunting I've done on WMA property, I've never had a problem parking where other hunters have, normally it's fairly obvious, a side road here or there. Never, ever-never go driving down a fire road though unless it's clearly marked as such. Around here they have a folding plastic post that indicates roads to stay off of. You can walk down them, just don't drive.
  11. Some of those stores video tape all of their transactions not for security, but to check that every restricted purchase is carded. The clerk can get fired for selling beer to his mother for not carding.
  12. I've dealt allot with A&H, never had an issue like this with them.  Any complaint I ever had was handled by something like 'Grab an extra handful until you thinks it's right attitude'. He always throws an extra handful of brass/bullets in the bag and rounds down the final tally on every purchase. I personally think his prices are a tad high but still like doing business with him.   I'm not aware of what transpired and am not disagreeing with the OP, just saying that I've had nothing but good experiences with him even when something wasn't right. Could be that he had an epileptic fit or was bitten by a rabid dog, I dunno. It's when twenty people get on here and are having problems with a vendor that I would pay attention.
  13.   I seen that very same thing at a girlfriends house back in the 70's. It was like the nest was split right in two, could watch the little bastards tending the hive.   As far as the widow is concerned, if they aren't in a common use area, I tend to leave them alone, but them Recluse are bad mojo and I kill 'em every chance I get. I got tagged slipping my britches on one morning and it was a terrible mess for several days after. If you spot a BW, it will likely be in the same place week after week doing whatever they do, those Recluse roam all over and get in to awkward places and they will bite you in even more awkward spots. 
  14. Okay, I gotta find this game, any Zombies and such involved?
  15.   I used to rent a table there in the late 80's thru the 90's. Used to open both sides of the building, dealers and crowd were good. Not so much anymore, maybe it will turn around. I've attended three shows since '06, doubt I'll be back again
  16.  I agree will all that except the labels will be applied by the winner
  17. Another.... The black rifle thing is tacti-cool and all, but I prefer the old school look myself: This is what you get if you lock your M14 up with your 30 carbine overnight... Sports an old K4 Weaver scope, ASI tuner, Levy's 1907 sling, mini scout rail... This particular rifle has had about 10k rounds through it with nary a hic-cup and well over half of them hit the target
  18. Just popped in my mind... BO don't mean nothing to me anymore:   I'd cut him if he stands, and I'd shoot him if he run, And I'd kill him with my bible, and my razor and my gun....
  19.   I wish I could like that one twice
  20. Stole this from a motorcycle forum, probably not true but I figure the LEO community here might get a kick out of it:   Recently, the Chula Vista, California Police Department ran an e-mail forum (a question and answer exchange) with the topic being, "Community Policing." One of the civilian e-mail participants posed the following question, "I would like to know how it is possible for police officers to continually harass people and get away with it?" From the "other side" (the law enforcement side) Sgt. Bennett, obviously a cop with a sense of humor replied: "First of all, let me tell you this...it's not easy. In Chula Vista, we average one cop for every 600 people. Only about 60% of those cops are on general duty (or what you might refer to as "patrol") where we do most of our harassing. The rest are in non-harassing departments that do not allow them contact with the day to day innocents. At any given moment, only one-fifth of the 60% patrollers are on duty and available for harassing people while the rest are off duty. So roughly, one cop is responsible for harassing about 5,000 residents. When you toss in the commercial business, and tourist locations that attract people from other areas, sometimes you have a situation where a single cop is responsible for harassing 10,000 or more people a day. Now, your average ten-hour shift runs 36,000 seconds long. This gives a cop one second to harass a person, and then only three-fourths of a second to eat a donut AND then find a new person to harass. This is not an easy task. To be honest, most cops are not up to this challenge day in and day out. It is just too tiring. What we do is utilize some tools to help us narrow down those people which we can realistically harass. The tools available to us are as follows: PHONE: People will call us up and point out things that cause us to focus on a person for special harassment. "My neighbor is beating his wife" is a code phrase used often. This means we'll come out and give somebody some special harassment. Another popular one: "There's a guy breaking into a house." The harassment team is then put into action. CARS: We have special cops assigned to harass people who drive. They like to harass the drivers of fast cars, cars with no insurance or no driver's licenses and the like. It's lots of fun when you pick them out of traffic for nothing more obvious than running a red light. Sometimes you get to really heap the harassment on when you find they have drugs in the car, they are drunk, or have an outstanding warrant on file. RUNNERS: Some people take off running just at the sight of a police officer. Nothing is quite as satisfying as running after them like a beagle on the scent of a bunny. When you catch them you can harass them for hours. STATUTES: When we don't have PHONES or CARS and have nothing better to do, there are actually books that give us ideas for reasons to harass folks. They are called "Statutes"; Criminal Codes, Motor Vehicle Codes, etc...They all spell out all sorts of things for which you can really mess with people. After you read the statute, you can just drive around for awhile until you find someone violating one of these listed offenses and harass them. Just last week I saw a guy trying to steal a car. Well, there's this book we have that says that's not allowed. That meant I got permission to harass this guy. It's a really cool system that we've set up, and it works pretty well. We seem to have a never-ending supply of folks to harass. And we get away with it. Why? Because for the good citizens who pay the tab, we try to keep the streets safe for them, and they pay us to "harass" some people. Next time you are in my town, give me the old "single finger wave." That's another one of those codes. It means, "You can't harass me." It's one of our favorites. For those who do have, or have had a close association in the Law Enforcement industry, I am sure that this will have a special meaning.  
  21.   Ain't that the truth...   Costing roughly .20 per now to reload 'em and I don't see that getting much better. I sure wouldn't run a bunch for sale at 50 cents even if it was legal. I don't think those Fiocchi's are re-loads anyway, just put them on here trying to help folks.
  22.   Would depend on if you have or don't have...
