My first grandson was born with Downes Syndrome and didn't speak for a couple years. His first words that I heard him say was Pop Pop, so that kinda stuck. Boring, however I have been Pop Pop for 30 years now.

Wife material right there.....

I've been voting outside the two main parties for awhile as I don't trust either. No one in is willing to give up power, money and influence for the good of the country or people - I think that should be pretty clear by now.

This Judge has been very good to us and stated that he waited specifically for Chevron to be decided before making this decision.

The SCOTUS Chevron decision will have major impact across many federal agency's rules, good!

Will Carry: I was on the Chattooga River, section 4, at the five falls section. One of the five rapids is called "Sock'em Dogs."This rapid has killed some really good paddlers. As we walked downstream to scout the drop at Sock'em Dog, I took one look and said, "I think I will carry this rapid." Then my buddy Joe says "Dang dude, I didn't drive 7 hrs to portage a rapid." I replied, "I didn't drive 7 hrs to die in one." This changed my attitude toward kayaking. I decided that I would portage any rapid I want to. I WILL CARRY! I used to paddle with these guys that were better than me, they were Hair Boaters and every time I paddled with them, I was scared witless. Knowing that I WILL CARRY any rapid I want to, allowed me to enjoy kayaking again. We ran some unbelievable creeks and rivers, my favorites are in East Tennessee, Daddies Creek Canyon, The Tiny Piney River, Crooked Fork Creek to name a few. angit

Hands down one of the funniest easter eggs of any Ryan Reynolds movie is in IF's credits. IYKYK. And speaking of Ryan Reynolds movies, I just got home from Deadpool - Wolverine. WOW! I think I liked this one the best of all the Deadpools, and I've really liked the others.

SOLD

If you want to feel betrayed, consider the Democrats made it a crime to carry a handgun in 1801 ,then any forearm in 1870 and the Republicans have had a majority for 8 years under Haslam, then a super majority for 6 more years and have not corrected that lack yet. They have been told time and again their actions are unconstitutional but they do not care, they love power and they love to control. If you don't believe that just look at how they killed the Constitutional Amendment to let the People vote on removing the Jim Crow law from 1870.

August 19th deadline August 13th need total number of knifes, after the 13th of August no more orders can be taken. Protech went out of their way to do this run for me, so these deadlines are Firm

We may well have. I would have been15-19yo. I spent much more time in the Ocoee/Tellico area (used to know the Ocoee like the back of my hand) and Obed area. Oh, and summer trips on the Arkansas Gunnison rivers in Colorado.

I have a feeling it will pass with flying colors.

I'm only selling this to fund a new chopper build. I didn't realize just how much I'd missed working on bikes the last 15 years, until I started fooling with them again. Now I've got a basket case 1990 Sportster that's screaming to go into a little rigid frame!

Listen, you're in Knoxville, you're closer to the bears than I am, you NEED this.

Man, those are wonderful bikes. What fun it would be to have one again....

That call has been made, we are waiting on a reply. Actually, I hope they let it go forward as we will sue and win, as will FPC, GOA, 2nd Amendment Foundation, NAGR and maybe even the slothful NRA as it might make them some money.

This is what they will face if they try to enforce the sure to be passed issues: 39-1701314 (g)(1) (A) Notwithstanding title 29, chapter 20; title 9, chapter 8; and § 20-13-102, a party may file an action in a court of competent jurisdiction against any of the persons or entities listed in subdivisions (g)(1)(A)(i) and (ii), if the party is adversely affected by: (i) An ordinance, resolution, policy, rule, or other enactment that is adopted or enforced by a county, city, town, municipality, or metropolitan government or any local agency, department, or official that violates this section; or (ii) The creation or maintenance of a record, database, registry, or collection of records, in violation of § 39-17-1305, by a state or local government entity, official, employee, or agent.

Wow, that is in great condition - great bike to own. !!

They lost the suit in NAGR vs Garland. The language in the 60+ pg decision is very clear in shutting them down from making what amounts to new laws and circumventing Congress. It applies to so much more than just FRT's

This is the same judge that issued the TRO on my "engaged in the business" case with GOA and Ken Paxton. Here is a poignant quote from the ruling: Because the Cargill decisions from the en banc Fifth Circuit and the Supreme Court are squarely dispositive of the issue in this case, the Court concludes that ATF’s regulation is not in accord with the statutory definition of “machinegun.” By redefining the statutory definition, the ATF exceeded the scope of its authority. Upon determining that an agency’s action is unlawful, that “agency action must be set aside if the action was ‘arbitrary, capricious, an abuse of discretion, or otherwise not in accordance with law’ or if the action failed to meet statutory, procedural, or constitutional requirements.” Citizens to Preserve Overton Park, 401 U.S. at 413–14 (1971) (citing 5 U.S.C. § 706(2)(A)–(D)). NAGR v. Garland, pp. 47-48.

Over the top Delta cracked me up. He even did the pillow silencer bit. Also forgot the part where Russell Crowe has morphed into John Goodman from Big Lebowski

This heartwarming story of a man who went from loser to champion by crossing over brought a tear to my eye. But it might be because I've got a case of Covid right now.

I do enjoy my MasterpieceArms MPA SD9 Hybid.

I think you should go with "Big O" and let us all embrace our inner 13-year-old selves.

I'm sure there is another name thread somewhere. I'm sure I posted to that one. But since we're here now, why not? When my sons were growing up I spent 12 years as a Boy Scout Leader. During that time I took an advanced leader course called Wood Badge. There I was assigned to the Fox Patrol. My hair went completely gray in my 30s. Its a family trait. It took my fellow Scouters all of about 30 seconds to dub me the "Gray Fox". The nickname just sorta stuck. When I first registered here, it told me that name was already taken. So I just tacked on my birth year 1954.

I think there was a much more recent version of this thread, but since @Omega pulled it from the archives I figured I would respond. Pretty easy Snaveba is A.B. Evans (my initials and last name) backwards. This goes back to trying to create an email address on AOL almost 30 years ago. Everything I tried was taken. AOL kept offering AEvans (and some number) so I just did abevans backwards.

I guess Cheatles never prosper.........

I've told the story many times about my wife's arthritis in her hands. She finally settled on a 2" S&W Model 30 in .32 S&W Long. She could shoot it very well and the recoil didn't hurt her hands. If you were to buy something in .327 Fed Magnum, she could shoot .32 S&W Long, .32 H&R Magnum or .327 Federal Magnum all out of the same gun. She could try the various cartridges and settle on whichever one she could shoot and handle the best. I really think that .32s are highly under rated.

I know it’s not the question that you asked, but small revolvers suitable for carry, even in smaller calibers, are generally awful to actually shoot and use. If I may offer a bit of a recommendation outside of your actual ask, maybe have her take a firearms familiarization class from a local range where she gets to try and use several different handguns. The benefit may be twofold in that she may discover more confidence with a semi automatic pistol, but also may help discover what will actually work for her.

Well the main reason to buy a,,,,, oh look, there's a lever gun, I have 3 just like it, well 4 is the magic number today. Thank goodness I was here to save it.

II strive to live by "The NCO Creed" and my first name....

In honor of the good doctor.
