It means get some hot dogs.

+1 to Hiawasee Georgia. Pretty area and a nice lake.

Same. I have a Valuable Personal Property policy with my homeowner's carrier (USAA) that lists my guns, but yeah . . . it gets expensive. I compared it to Lockton Affinity (NRA-affiliated in some way) and the same coverage worked out to about $100 cheaper per year with them. Not chump change, but not enough savings for me to be worth the hassle of dealing with another insurance company. YMMV. Plus I don't know how they'd be to deal with a claim, and I know USAA is awesome.

Yeah, this is a place that's long gone. He said there was a row of building where the West End McDonald's is now just to the left of the main Centennial Park entrance, and that's where it was.

Ok old timers. My father in law remembers a pizza place on West End Ave in Nashville back in the 1960s. It was close to Centennial Park about where the McDonald’s is today. Does anyone remember it and what it was called?

PM sent

Is that a Browning Auto-5 for the instructor? I almost didn't see him.

Same for me in Bellevue (west side of Nashville). The few we've had are transients on their way to somewhere else. I'll see one or two for a day or two, then they're gone. A few days later I'll see a different one, then it's gone too. My resident birds never show up before June. I'm only keeping 1 feeder out right now. That and my dozen flower pots are enough to keep the transients going and to attract the residents when they arrive. Then I'll put out a 2nd or 3rd feeder.

First . . .I want to know what you had in mind Jim Henson wasn't directly involved in anything Star Wars, but he influenced it for sure. Lucas wanted him, but he was busy and referred Lucas to Frank Oz (Yoda). Oz and many of the other puppeteers in the late 70s and 80s all ran in the same circles, especially those at the top of their craft who would be working on feature films. Several (Oz for sure) were apprentices of Henson so his style influenced their own designs. I've always thought there was some resemblance between the monkeylizard puppet and some of them from Henson's The Dark Crystal.

Same for me, but not AOL. I wanted a Star Wars handle back in the early days of the Interwebz, but of course all the common characters were taken and I didn't want to be BobaFett3728 or Vader7561. I landed on monkeylizard as the first obscure SW thing I could find that wasn't already taken. It's what Jabba the Hutt's pet thing is.

I was thinking about the Charles Barkley SNL skit where he's Darrell but Macgruber keeps calling him Da'rell

Sounds like an international business expansion opportunity. Le Buc-ee's. It's like U.S. Buc-ee's but the beaver wears a beret and they have a wine section.

That is clearly a meme made by a city boy. A real country boy wouldn't have so many empty slots in the racks and the drawers would be full of ammo-n-camo.

At the next TGO meet, a Buc-ee's onesie should be the uniform of the day. And yes . . . they have a beaver tail.

Or stronger thighs. . . squat and hold the position

What's so special? Super clean and plentiful restrooms. Modern fast and plentiful fuel pumps. An impressive selection of fountain drinks. The beef jerky bar. Korean BBQ is good . . . Cherry Maple is like candy, but made of beef. Good bakery items (the beaver tail . . . yummmmm) Lots of fresh healthy options available too for those who want that. And that's just the "gas station" side of the house. There's a whole 'nother half of the store for your home decor, clothing, fishing, hunting, camping, and grilling needs, and more. I'm soooooo tempted to get a Buc-ee's onesie just because!

LOL! They camouflaged it! US Army Soldier: "Hey, Ned! Those crazy Jerry's planted a hedgerow in the middle of that barren railroad track!"

Or 3 degrees off top dead center if you're running a performance cam.

..

Have you tried other deterrents? Like sitting near your feeder with an air horn and blowing it when they come to feed? It wouldn't take any more effort than shooting them. They'll likely learn quickly to move on to quieter grounds.

That's a semi-auto, so out-of-scope for the OP's hypothetical.

Thanks, everyone. Apparently it was a common aesthetic choice in the late 70s/early 80s for several different places. I was likely in North Carolina at the time and it could have just been a local joint. I do remember one called Rikki Tikki Tavern . They had a taxidermy mongoose and cobra in a display case out front. As a kid, that was AWESOME!!!!!! I never got to go in because they sold beer, and respectable families in the South simple didn't frequent such establishments . . . or so I was told.

Not everyone getting waxed is a 10 . . . . or female.
