I tried desperately to get my kids to call my in-laws meemaw and peepaw. Mostly to annoy my mother-in-law. She decided before they even arrived that she was going to be picky about what they called her, and that bugged me. Alas I was unsuccessful, but I gave it a good try. :D My parents and my Father-in-law couldn't care less, "I don't care what they call me as long as they call me."

What they said, get a "no fee" card or two and pay the balance in full every time without fail. It's not a credit card, it's a convenience card. As in, you have the cash, just not on your person. I've had the same credit card for 25 years and have never paid a penny in interest. Get all your power, water, phone, TV, Internet, etc. all in your name, and pay the bills on time every month.

Congrats!

If you think KFC is bad, try a Lee's sometime.  :yuck:   Bojangles is where it's at.  Popeyes is ok when it doesn't resemble fried salt bricks. 

You can get the proper sling mount for it. http://www.amazon.com/Desert-Fox-Sling-Swivel-Set/dp/B00BPW0QCO I intend to add one to mine but haven't yet.

I was dropping off my young'un some time last year. I bent down for some reason and a 9mm case fell out of my shirt pocket. I picked it up quickly. Thankfully no one was killed.

You sir, are a genius. :D I like the rain barrel idea, but I've already got one. I'd have to find a fairly inconspicuous place for it as I'm quite sure my wife will say it's ugly.

  Seriously, why not?  The smell of Hoppes #9 is an aphrodisiac, the ladies love it.  ;)   Get some newspaper, a bucket, and a couple shop towels.  Take the stock off and put the muzzle into the bucket to collect the crud that runs down.  It's really not that messy. 

The kitchen table.

I have acquired one of the big 50gal rolling trash cans. My previous trash service never bothered to come get it after I cancelled the service and made several inquires, so I'm claiming it. Looks generally like this, except it's green. Yes, it was used for trash for several years and is kinda nasty inside. While I'm not above cleaning it, food storage isn't an option. It's just sitting there taking up space at the moment and I'd like to put it to some sort of use, so bring on the suggestions.... :wave:

    Based on this, I agree with Mac... most likely 8mm mauser.  30 seconds with a caliper can verify that. 

Do they assess tax based on sale price or market value (like they do used cars now)? 

    http://www.vsp.state.va.us/Safety.shtm#FAQSafety         The key word is "operates".  It specifically does not say vehicles registered in VA, it says vehicles operated in VA.   Would that hold up in court?  Dunno.  The friend I was in the car with paid the fine, which is all they're really after anyway.  Don't screw with VAHP, you'll have a bad day. 

    Not exactly.  Yes, you can be ticketed if your vehicle violates the state's code where you are.  It's no different than following their laws while carrying a gun in another state.  Generally, tourists get a free pass but you are breaking the law there.    I know for a fact that you can be ticketed for window tint darker than 35% when driving a FL registered car (where 20% is legal) in VA.  Speeding and being an asshole to the cop about it doesn't help.  ;)   So yes, if you ever think you might pull your trailer out of state, get a tag for it.  It's relatively cheap and worth it to avoid the potential hassle.  If you have a home built trailer or one with no title you can still get a plate for it, you just have to pay an extra fee and get it inspected by TNHP.  Be very thoughtful about weight capacity (understand what gross weight means) when filling out the application.    https://www.tn.gov/assets/entities/revenue/attachments/trailerinspectionrequirements.pdf http://www.tn.gov/assets/entities/revenue/attachments/sf1166fillin.pdf

There's crazy people everywhere.

    I shoot the corrosive milsurp stuff in mine, just because it was cheap and I have it. When/if I run out of that, I presume I'll switch to the PPU, Wolf, etc. type of stuff.  I've also got 1 box of really old Hornady (?) hunting ammo for it. 

Nah, there's nothing wrong with the mental health system in our country....    :shake:

You're using reason and logic again.... Those do not apply to legal matters, especially when the government is involved.

Rust.... Lightly oil them and store them in a cool, dry place. If you have them in a safe, use a desiccant in one form or another to keep the humidity down.

Forgot about that one. Good movie.

Yep. Rear mains are generally a major PITA to replace so I'd put it off as long as possible.

Mostly, yes. It's right next to Pakistan, which is basically their back yard. Looking at the map, I suppose it's roughly the same distance to Europe as India, and the weather is better in Europe.

I try hard to feel the same way. I've known more than a few Muslims, all of whom I thought to be good people. However, the conspicuous silence from the "good" Muslim groups is telling. When the Westboro Baptist folks started their antics, many other Christian groups were quick to say "we disagree, they don't speak for us." While I haven't been looking, I also haven't seen or heard any other Muslim group speak out strongly against ISIS, Taliban, etc. That's curious. Perhaps they're afraid of making themselves the next target? I also find it curious that ISIS hasn't moved into India. After all, aren't Hindus infidels just like Christians? And India is right next door.

My assumption was that he's lived his life as a blind man up until the journey began and continued with his habits. A blind person gifted with sight wouldn't necessarily know how to read. But like I said, been several years since I saw it.
