  1. If stamping Go Big Orange on their guns helps them sell guns I am sure they will stamp it on them for sure................. :rock:
  2. All I have to say about this is I wish they would have stayed with Beretta's because the new plant here is under construction and I want them to be successful here..............jmho
  3. I would be willing to bet that S&W will bail them out. Back in the early days and I means the days of the Peace Maker Colt and Wesson were fierce competitors and colt came out on top. You can bet the W in S&W would love to rub Colts nose in it even after all this time. Some bad tastes never go away and this would be Wesson's opportunity to beat Colt up bad....................jmho
  4. I'm not allowed in local Arby's since my last visit when I refused to leave the store until they made me a sandwich that looked like the one in the TV commercials. The manager finally made me one with all the meat they showed on TV and served it to me in a bag with fries and politely told me not to come back so I have not been back. They advertise that they have the meat so I wanted the meat.......... :rant: :rant: :rant:
  5. A guy goes to the supermarket and notices a very attractive woman waving at him.             She says, 'Hello.'             He's rather taken aback because he can't place where he knows her from. So he asks, 'Do you know me?'             To which she replies, 'I think you're the father of one of my kids.'             Now his mind travels back to the only time he has ever been unfaithful to his wife.             So he asks, 'Are you the stripper from the bachelor party that I made love to on the pool table, with all my buddies watching, while your partner whipped my butt with wet celery?'             She looks into his eyes and says calmly, 'No, I'm your son's teacher.'
  6. I hate commercials period but plain stupid ones make me just sick. After the original Colonel Sanders passed away and has been dead for many years all of a sudden he is back. I don't know who is writing his scripts but evidently he was the same one that wrote for the first old Guy!!!!  I just saw a commercial about that 4 dollar box of chicken. The Colonel says you can fill your gas tank with 5 dollars or you can fill your stomach with his 5 dollar box. Can anyone remember the last time you filled your gas tank for 5 dollars????????? Maybe he is talking about your lawn mower or chain saw tank.............. :shrug: :shrug:
  7. No, their are several independent video rental stores one of them  being Captain Video is family owned and operates about 8 stores around middle Tennessee and she bought for them and a couple others. They are mostly located in small towns. If I were Dolo I would by pass the store management and go directly to Corporate with his problem. I have to say I was impressed at how fast Corporate reacted to my email and contacted my store and told the store manager to get this issue resolved ASAP. I think it may have taken about 4 days from my complaint to the problem fixed. It seems when Corporate speaks store managers listen at Walmart. I figure why deal with the flunkies when you can go to the top...........jmho
  8. Well, I have to say I read about Dolo's issues with Walmart and I sincerely hope that they do what is right by him for sure. I had a great experience with Walmart and I seldom spend much time at Walmart for many years now. Last month when they were getting ready to release American Sniper I went up there a couple days early to talk with the people back in electronics about how many companies of the movie they will be getting. One employee said they will be getting about 100 Blue Ray copies, 150 Combo packs and 125 Plain copies for standard Disc players. She also volunteered that if I wanted to make sure I got a copy I might want to be there pretty early. I asked why and she said we have one lady that is a straw buyer for about 15 Rental Video stores and they will send her in to buy about 200 of the new releases and she shows up every time any new hot releases come out and will fill a cart up by 8AM. If I miss it I will have to wait about 2 weeks till they get another shipment in. I asked if anyone has ever reported that to the manager and she said she didn't know.   I decided to take my complaint to the Corporate level and ask them if they knew about straw buyers doing that at their stores. I didn't figure my complaint would get any attention. To my surprise evidently Corporate was very concerned and wrote me back in two days.   They wanted to know which store I shopped at. I wote them back and told them and they wrote back and thanked me. The following day my Walmart store called me on the phone to discuss any issues I was having. I told the assistant manager about my concern about being able to purchase American Sniper and about the straw buyer they had using their store to supply several rental stores with their stock.    She informed me that she was not aware of it but she would look into it. She did exactly that and she was in electronics when the lady showed up and began emptying the shelves. She walked up to her and ask her what  she was buying so many videos for and found out she was in fact working for several rental stores that had a limit on how many they could order of popular releases. The manager told her that she was going to limit her on the number of Videos she could get and the woman got very up set and told the manager she could not restrict how many she could purchase and the manager cut the number even more.    I showed up about 10 o'clock AM and pleased to see a lot of copies of the movie on the shelves. I bought a combo pack and gave my son in law the Blue ray because he has a Blue Ray player and I don't.  I saw the lady that told me about the straw buyer and she laughed. She said yep, she showed up and the manager really made her mad and I bet she will not be back but will go to another store. I was very impressed that that Corporate did react really quick and so did their store managers. I know there is not a lot of good things posted about Walmart so I thought I would post something positive for a change...........jmho
  9. If I could like the original post more I would like it a 1000 times. In all honesty I am not against Islam persay. I am against what it stands for and in most cases represents. Other than that I don't have any issues about it............jmho
  10. I have to agree with most of your post EO but I need to ask you one question. Is any bad guys ever really smart to begin with? Except for Whitey Boldger who managed to avoid recapture for over 35 years after his escape?...................... :shrug: :shrug: :shrug:
  11. Just read that and the guy just had a death wish and Dallas PD provided him with it. You just don't attack a police station and expect to come out on top. It does not happen..............jmho
  12. Well maybe Mr Smith went about this all wrong. If in fact the people of the State of Missouri voted as mentioned above maybe Mr. Smith should have contacted the Missouri Governors office and requested that the No gun Signs at the Zoo be remove before his visit. As it states it is against their own laws for the signs to be on the Zoo in the first place. And I agree, the police chief isn't playing with a full deck of cards since he does not want to go along with the people of the state that voted as they did.......................jmho
  13. I have figured out a long time back that most times lies make news and bigger lies make more news and any statistics that come from anywhere in the New England Area will always make news because it is primarily all Blue up there and we all know that Blue states lie about almost everything they are against to make sure it makes the news. I love the ad New York is running where they are promising any company that will open in New York will be tax free for 10 years. Zero taxes of any kind for 10 years and then they add that they have even dropped the personal income tax rates. Why would any company want to open up in a state that has a state income tax to begin with????? I have checked recently to see just how many new companies have opened up in New York since the promotion began. I could not find one company listed as new to New York or recently opened there. That should tell New York something along with all the companies that packed or are packing their bags to leave for better locations in other states..............jmho
  14. I went to St Louis back in 1989 to attend the Hunter Wheel alignment school to get certified in Wheel Alignment for Brentwood Shell where I worked. They were paying for it so I went and also went packing heat and Slept with it in the motel and also took it to Hunter School concealed of course. It would be like going to Memphis unarmed. Nothing against Memphis but just a town I know little about and might wind up in area I don't want to be in............................ :shrug: :shrug:  
  15. All things like this do is give the anti gun people more ammunition to use in their plight to banned guns period. If the Zoo is legally posted this guy is an idiot for calling them and asking them to change a policy that has been in effect for a long time probably. Just another idiot trouble maker and against most of what good legal law biding gun owners try NOT to do...............jmho
  16. If I could like this 1000  times I would. That is some of the truest statements I have read in years. And Yes even though I am in my living room by myself, when I am getting ready to watch any sporting event that has the Pledge of Allegiance or Star Spangled Banner I stand and Salute until it is finished since I am a veteran and still love and respect my country with all my heart........ :usa:
  17. Well how is that any different  than what we have here. If a bad guy wants to get a gun he will damn well get it if he has to steal it. If a bad guy wants to buy one he will and nothing will stop that even in Connecticut.................jmho
  18. Clean Up in Isle 3 after cat fight!!!!!!!!!     Who wants to bet the lady driving the granny cart has a disabled person placard hanging from her mirror in the parking lot?   Like mother like son in that one................. :stunned:
  19. I was kind of wondering how he lasted 6 posts but don't have to worry about that any more.......... :up: :up:
  20. Your gonna love this. About 10 years ago my brother bought a house in Essex Illinois with about 35 acres of land when he retired and sold his business. After the sale had all been finalized and everything signed was when the realtor broke the news to him. He could look off his front porch at any one of his neighbors homes but if he had a land line phone it would be long distance to call any of them. It would be long distance if he called anyone. The house sat right directly in the middle of the phone company Illinois Bell's dividing lines. The house is in the country but he tried to get cell phone service and all of the cell phone companies told him that his house was not in any of their coverage area. He asked one of them which happened to be Verizon but was another name back then up there what it would take for him to get coverage and they said a tower closer to his home. He asked them what that would take and they said land and a lease and access to the land. My brother leased them 5 acres of ground for the tower, allowed them to build a single lane nice gravel road through his property to get to their tower for maintenance  The tower is on the far back section of his land hid for the most part by tree except for about upper 40 feet. He and his wife now have cell phone service for life with all the bells and whistles at N/C and they pays him $1,000.00 a month to lease the 5 acre tract the tower sits on. All his life he has been the black sheep of the family and can fall in a bucket of Crap and come out smelling like sweet perfume every time.
  21. Meet a 2 Step:     https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z6Mq-UdPeXc
  22. I have been with Cricket for 18 years and have never had any major issues and they got bought a while back and my coverage went everywhere A.T&T covers.They just sent me a notice that they want me to come in and get a new totally free updated phone to replace the one I am using know. I have been paying $25.00 a month. It maybe be an option to look at if you live in middle Tennessee. You can look up their coverage area on their site. I am also using Cricket Broad Band right now while i am on line right now..........just an idea to look at.
  23. Maybe so But our friend Carl was about 40 when we had to drag him off that guy the put that fake one on his shoulder. We all knew he was deathly afraid of them and this guy also knew it but was not a friend and he did it as a joke but it was not to funny when he was gasping for air after we finally go Carl off of him. I have known several people both woman and men that have hurt themselves trying to get away from totally harmless snakes. The only snake that bothered me in my life is the what the natives called the 2 Step located in Vietnam. If you got bit by one you were lucky if you made it 2 steps before you were dead. The Black Mambo didn't bother me but the 2 Steps did..............jmho
  24. Probably but this answer could also pertain to someone like EssOnes reply as it being a Hoversnake.......... :rofl:  If someone is deathly afraid of a snake it is not harmless. It will very possibly cause harm to the person trying to put as much distance as possible between the snake and themselves. I had a good friend that would kill you if you threw a toy rubber snake on him. He was deathly afraid of them. It took 4 of us to pull him off a guy that threw a toy rubber snake on his shoulder. He had the guy by the throat and on the ground and I didn't think we were going to get him off before he killed the guy. We did but just barely......... :up:
  25. I have been using a product call Fluid Film for about 25 years and have never had an issue with it. I have used it to lubricate all of my high end Bait caster Shimano Fishing Reels for 20+ years and used it on all of my firearms before then and it has always performed perfectly. I buy mine at Tractor Supply but have seen it in Lowes also.........................jmho
