  1. Theres no money for the pharmaceutical lobbiests to make selling Ivermectin OR Hydroxychloraquine, hence why you will not hear about. ... But an unproven methodology and totally novel vaccine is trumpeted from every mountain top, isn't it? Remember when they were pushing remdisivr on us and saying theres no proof vitamin D works? Ahhh, good times!
  2. https://www.thefirearmblog.com/blog/2019/08/13/make-a-factory-quality-9mm-rifled-barrel-in-your-kitchen-using-salt-water-and-electricity-ecm/ I found this interesting in just how they're cutting the barrel, but the larger project its a part of is a perfect example of what 3D printing can ddo.Printed receiver, mags, and a DIY metal barrel. You can make your own little machine gun today, totally unregistered.
  3. I had a similair issue with my comcast.net account. Still isn't working, actually, but I monitor activity feeds through the website.
  4. LOL! He didn't offer/ask a price. Think he was fishing to see what I'd offer?
  5. Had to buy 2 tires for the truck yesterday. The place I use is in Harriman. He had 9 plastic pails filled with assorted used tire weights. They used to have a guy that came around but they haven't seen him in a while. Offered to sell me some. I'm not casting ... yet, but I know some Knox area guys are. PM me and I'll give you the location.
  6. I can concur. Born and raised Buffalo NY native (you wanna talk about a hard to love team with me?) The football fans up there are absolutely rabid for their home team. Bare chested in the upper deck in an 80k seat outdoor stadium in the dead of January is my definition of a rabid fan. Ain't seen THAT down here just yet, but gotta give it to the Vols fans, they do love their team. It was something I noticed very early when I moved here, made me feel right at home, actually. I've since adopted Smokey and his boys (wasn't any good college ball up that way anyhow). That sense of hometown pride over anything I think is important. You notice it more when its lacking than when its there? I think big(ger) metropolitan areas like Nashvegas get too many transplants, it dilutes that hometown pride thing. Half the residents prolly think of Vandy as that school downtown with no parking.
  7. In case no one has told you yet.... It ain't about your health. The inconsistency you are observing is real, and belies the truth. We are each able to choose whether we accept what we are told, or what we observe. That ringing in your ears when you try, is called cognitive dissonance. Your brain already knows the truth, your consciousness is trying to decide if its better to just stick your head in the sand. The consequences of accepting the alternative _is_ a wee bit uncomfortable for some.
  8. Welcome to TN and TGO! Can't help you with the hunting lease, but you may want to checkout Big South Fork area north of you.
  9. I can't get my head around some of the valuations. I mean, I get IPO frenzy, made a few bucks that way myself over the years. But you've got startups that haven't even posted a profit yet valued higher than whole industries! I get that Air BnB is a disruptor in the hospitality industry, but across the market, corporate valuations are at such high multiples to earnings its very risky. My retirement money I trade very conservatively. Fun money not so much.
  10. "No child left behind". Lowered the bar so more people could grow up feeling like they're not dumbasses. SMH....
  11. Bradbury covered the technique beautifully in Fahrenheit 451. Are we at War with EastAsia? Who cares, time for the 2 minutes hate everyone! What scares me (not to segue), but if your eyes are open and you were exposed to this literature in HS, it is literally happening before your eyes. We were warned. Exactly as laid out in Huxleys works, too.
  12. Sure, machinists aren't the average Joe, however. Knowledge and access to specialized machinery is required. You, me, or anyone with a credit card can purchase 3D printers and materials retail, download files for free off the internet, and POOF, parts. I concur that prison time acts as a deterrent to some folks, but not all. The point I was trying to make is knocking off Polymer80 corp. isn't going to keep unregistered firearms from peoples use. The technology to do so is ubiquitous today. Can't regulate it out of existence.
  13. I've been positioned conservatively for a while (missed a lot), but my dividend stocks have been doing very well last few weeks. Agree, seeing distribution here, as always at the top..... The IPO market lately is beyond bonkers. Another sign that tells me not to adjust my positions.
  14. If you got to a C:> prompt, you have DOS. HD is good (errrrrm, its able to read enough info off it to get a bootloader and DOS up and running.) You may have mangled bits on it, but I don't know if I'd count the hardware as toast just yet.
  15. Does Kaspersky still make theirs? Used to have a version of that with a few other "tools" on it, but sadly that was a couple years ago.
  16. I hear you, and agree that Fed/Gov is likely to target them with legislation, however that gets to the point of my comment. The genie is out of the bottle. Plans/files are freely and widely available on the internet. "You can't stop the signal". Legislate all you want... irrelevant. If I wanted to print my own unregistered M-4 and auto sear, I only need to buy a printer and material available from Amazon dot com and other fine retailers.
  17. 3D printers have pretty much made these moot. I'd been in the market for one if I could pay cash and not ship it. Never found one.
  18. DING DING DING!!! Winner winner chicken dinner. Its a bad flu that nicks old people. Thats what the stats say when you find them.
  19. Its a broad spectrum medicine useful against nematodes and worms. Pigs, chickens, cows.. I used it on corals in my reef tanks back in the day, believe it or not!
  20. You're so right. God Bless Tennessee!!! (A similair situation happened years ago when I lived in a residential area in NY, Sherriff was on scene, we drove passed, then heard a single gun shot). I think you did all the right things, too. Bastards at the job site poached a buck yesterday. Killed it with his pistol. They didn't call TWRA. I was tempted....
  21. LOL! Yes, I'm aware of the mechanics of the market. I was referencing a common observation at market tops: casual investors bragging about outsized returns in shorter timeframes, aka robinhood invextors and pot stocks up 10,000%. I believe the classic story is a stock broker receiving unsolicited stock tips from taxicab drivers and the shoe-shine boy. Re: options, I find they are a much safer/better way to short something (market or security), however you absolutely have to understand what you are buying/selling. You can structure a trade to minimize risk (purchase naked calls/puts), or be on the hook for 10's of thousands (selling calls/puts). I enjoy trading them, as you can have long, swing, or short time frames, and the leverage is addictive. They are complex derivatives however, and not suited for all types of trading.
  22. Shudder at the thought... I think the risk is the change from a hands off less regulation business friendly leadership to a more top-down and authoritarian perspective. Deficit spending is popular with both, however I think that the currency will drop, though usually bullish, I see rotation away from King Dollar as a likely result, and that will pull money out of Wall St. .. that being said, with all thats happening right now, I'm keeping most of my powder dry and ready to go. I've been in illiquid markets with liquid assets. Market orders can be a bitch.
  23. Its easy to be an expert in a bull market!
  24. New mower is sitting under a Tarp because "we can't spend THAT money on a pole barn..." Whateverdoyoumean???
