  1.   This.  The last shipments I remember being offered sold out around the time of the SH shootings.  It's the nature of surplus, the prices are held to artificially low pricepoints while the supplies are still coming in, once those weapons (and ammo) are only available of the secondary market, prices begin to rise.
  2. It's probably stacked behind all the 22lr on the shelves ...
  3.   10 of course.  Didn't they teach the metric system at your school? :)
  4.   I went to see it and was so disgusted by the way the story was presented I left the theatre before it ended.  This was after waiting for it to come out for a year or more.
  5.   Tolkien's writings are no doubt an acquired taste, and any attempt to create an entire mythology/history of a fictional world will necessarily be more of a "slow read" than the typical fiction which is adapted by Hollywood.  While I enjoyed the movies and will easily admit that they are, thus far, the best adaptation yet of his work, I still much prefer the books to the movies, including the lesser known works such as "the Book of Lost Tales" and "Quenta Noldorinwa".
  6.   Ms. Gwynne would be better off considering a different career...   ... and whoever authorized publication of her submission should be fired immediately.
  7. This situation needs to be corrected, immediately.  Preferably by purchasing in quantity ...
  8. Nothing like fitting the bayonet to your M91, extending the length of your weapon to upwards of 6 feet ...
  9. I rate golf ahead of being whipped with a rubber hose, but not by much ...
  10. Are they still alive?
  11. The CMT tour is pretty cool.  Robertson's is internet only unless you can finagle an appointment with them, I think the details were listed on their site at one time (it was a favorite hangout when I was a kid growing up there).  In Jackson, check out the Range USA store on Highland, has a good indoor range as well.  There's a newer shop on South Highland near Southside High School, can't remember the name offhand, as well as the usual multiple Pawn/Gun locations found everywhere.  If you choose to go north, there are a couple of good gunshops in and near Union City, Final Flight and L&A Firearms both have a large selection, not to mention Dixie Gunworks with tons of antique/repro black powder type stuff.
  12.   AIM is always the first place I look online.  Prices are good, service is great, shipping is fast.  As others said, buy the Wolf Gold, then save the brass for reloading or sell it and recoup part of the cost, making it comparable to steel cased ammo in net price.  Look for sales, last week they had free shipping on this ammo as well.
  13.   Each charge is considered separate to the others, each carries it's own sentence.  There are different ways the sentences can be served, concurrently or consecutively,  sometimes this is prescribed by law, sometimes it's pretty much up to the court to decide which to impose.
  14. Many here have already posted about the problems and risks of long-distance renting, they pretty much nailed most of the reasons not to attempt that.  Another reason, paraphrasing something I once heard on Dave Ramsey's show, is this:  If you lived in Knoxville now, would you buy a house in Florida for a rental?  Obviously, few of us would countenance doing that, sell the house and walk away.
  15.   No problem, there are plenty of references to his site in every post he made ...
  16.   Can't.  He's gone bye-bye, for now.   Sent from my keyboard, using BOTH fingers!
  17.   Methinks thou dost protest too much ...
  18. Maybe the reason why the sudden interest in Tennessee laws? http://lawofselfdefense.com/seminars/   http://awofselfdefense.com/shop/  Really?  You have a hat for sale?
  19. "Piqued" is the term you're looking for ...
  20.   I've been accused of not being able to find my butt with both hands before, thought this thread might be something of a similar vein ...
  21. Luke, you might as well have posted "AK or AR" ...
  22.   Well, he did exclude Australia and Canada ...
  23. Holds well-reasoned political opinions...
  24.   Introduction of atmospheric gases wouldn't prevent the release of photons, including x-rays, but would tend to increase the absorption and scattering effects all photons go through on release, and would thus tend to decrease the intensity at any one locality.  Since X-rays and other high energy particles tend to ionize gases, they are readily absorbed by atoms in the atmosphere, and collisions with the same atoms will scatter the photons in many directions.   I wonder how much of the imaging on the plates is caused by X-rays, and how many pixels are caused by collisions with the electrons emitted by the tape, as electrons striking a plate can also form "images", albeit not as easily as X-rays.   After doing a bit of research on this, I found that the X-ray photons released by pulling adhesive tape have an upper energy level of about 15 keV, which is just above the level that form "hard X-rays" which can be used in imaging.  Apparently, researchers are experimenting mostly with more "exotic" materials than tape to produce higher energy X-rays which would prove more useful in building lower cost imaging machines.
  25.   I can remember my mother and grandmother canning corn, but they later switched to freezing.  A lot of people prefer the taste of frozen corn to canned, and the canning process is relatively long for corn.  Additionally, the recommended procedure is to use a pressure cooker, as corn is a low-acid vegetable.  Internet recipes for canning corn indicate that it needs to be processed for 85 minutes (depends on your pressure cooker's setup of course) for quarts, I think the long prep and processing time was what originally led my mother to freezing, then we discovered that we liked the frozen better.  The only reason I can think of for canning corn would be lack of freezer space.
