Nope not to much a Cow Pasture Pool kinds guy myself..................... :up:

I have shared this with a couple members here so guess I might as well shared it with all my friends here. About to weeks ago i developed a health issue that put me in the hospital for 4 days. They ran a battery of tests and found I had a urinary tract infection and began IV antibiotics which cleared that issue up. For now anyway. I go see a urologist on 23rd to schedule a battery of tests to make sure it is nothing else that may have caused it.    Then they hit me with an even bigger challenge. I have an aneurism the size of at least 8 Centimeters of the size of a Naval orange in my abdomen. I go see a Cardiac/Vascular Surgeon on Thursday to sent up a date for the surgery. Under normal conditions this would be considered a somewhat normal operation of open up body, install stint to by pass and close all taking about an hours.   Since I have the 26 inches of mesh that makes up my inner abdominal body wall they cannot do a simple open and close. They will have to go up in both sides of my groin robotic-ally and do the surgery. The doctor assures me that this procedure has been perform a 1000+ times with a very good success rate. Well, I hope they are successful one more time.   Then for the final kick in the face they informed me that I have Type 2 Diabetes and I had to change my entire lifestyle in foods. I gave my son about 500.00 worth of food for his family and daughter(nurse) took me shopping and read about every label in krogers for 3 hours. Now it's a pill twice and a shot of Insulin and blood sugar test before each meal...... :shrug: :shrug:   If I survive the Urologist and the surgery I will send an update. Until then I might not be here as much since I am operating about about 1/2 strength and energy until my body adjusts to my new lifestyle.     Like Paul Harvey  and now you know the rest of the story except in this case ya'll know most of it with more to follow......................      

I have not really watched much football except Sunday programming sucks and football is the best alternative. Someone mention Peyton Manning maturing when he went to Bronco's. He matured mostly for a couple reasons IMHO. First was Peyton was running the Colts and Tony Bungee was a joke for a coach. Peyton did take a pounding while with the Colts but he did get a Super Bowl ring. Difference when he went to Bronco's where he probably thought he would be in control he learned different pretty fast after his talk with John Elway. John set him straight right quick on who runs the team and it would not be Peyton. The only reason Peyton is still with the Bronco's after his neck injury and sitting out a year is John Elway giving him the chance to come back. I  figure credit needs to go where it's do. Yes, Peyton was a really good quarterback with out a doubt, but John Elway getting the right people brought to Denver to protect on Offensive line made Peyton a great quarterback..................jmho 

He already had a few persimmon trees on his lace already and planted the peach trees at the far back of his yard but they still have deer eating peaches. Thanks for the update on the Illinois information. I grew up hunting up there and didn't move to Tennessee and hunted up there till I was 17 and we never were able to hunt deer even in 1966 cause we ask every year and were told there was no deer season offered. If they had reimplemented the deer hunting in Illinois in 1957 why did all the men in my family that were deer hunters have to go to Wisconsin when I was a young boy to deer hunt? I remember seeing  deer heads mounted on family member walls and all of the plaques were quoted "Taken in Wisconsin" and a date........................ :shrug: :shrug:

Taking a wee break from the golf course, Rory Mcllroy drives         his new  Mercedes into an Irish gas station.         An attendant greets him in typical Irish manner, unaware who the golf         pro is...         "Top o' the mornin to ya".           As Rory gets out of the car, two tees fall out of his  pocket.         "So what are those things, laddie?" asks the attendant           "They're called tees," replies Rory.         "And what would ya be usin 'em for, now?" inquires the Irishman.           "Well, they're for resting my balls on when I drive," replies Rory.         "Aw, Jaysus,  Maryan' Joseph!" exclaims the Irish attendant.           "Those fellas at Mercedes think of everything!!!!!

From everything I have heard from people on ObamaCare unless your a millionaire or on welfare Obamacare does not cover anything until you pay your deductible of $3000.00+first....................jmho

I could think of a lot of other Items I would have placed in the box but would not want to possibly hurt a child that  may be near the thief when he opened. I would purchase a flash grenade to bottom of box with a string tied to the pin. I would make sure the box was posted Open this end first. Yea, I know I am mean but sometimes being mean is what is needed to stop a thief.............jmho

  You can't fix STUPID!!!!!!!!

I actually amazed myself. I only missed 4................................ :rofl: :rofl: :rock:

The cure has already been found and will be released in January 2015................ :up: :up: :up:

My son owns 14 acres of timber and woods right behind his house in Cheatham county. Right after he bought it he picked 5 different location that he saw deer regularly. On each location he plated a Peach tree and 5 Persimmon Trees and for the last 2 years they have all been bearing fruits and they always see deer in the woods. I have 5 processed deer in my freezer now and have everything from Back strip and tenderloin steaks to roasts and hamburger. He said he or my grandson will get me one more before the season is over. I have plenty to get me through till next season. Game Warden says he is totally legal........................ :up:  :up:  

This issue was brought up in Illinois when after 50 years of not allowing deer hunting they were force to reopen it after a large herd of deer walked out on one of O'Hare Airports runways while a 747 jumbo was on final approach and had make an emergency abort and it made a major panic for controllers sending planes all to complete new route to prevent a mid air crash. Farmers all over Illinois had been raising hell for 20 years about crop loss due to thousands of deer on their farms and it was all being ignored.   There was big fight with Mayor of Chicago and farmers when the Mayor said they would hire private companies to shoot nets over the deer, put them on trucks and ship them to southern Illinois. The farmers said they would shoot any truck driver that tried to release the deer. So Mayor could not find a company to do that. The Governor hired a large team of professional hunter to go to O'Hare and hunt the woods around the run ways and Neuhoff  Slaughter house in Chicago was paid to process the meat and give it to Homeless shelters and Orphanages.     Then the Governor told the DNR to set up a deer season.Compound Bow, Cross Bow, Muzzle Loader and shotgun slugs are allowed. No HP rifles. The first year was a Zoo because of one rule put in and that was no hunting over baited areas. Once you drive 25 miles south, south west or due west of Cook County you are in the corn belt farm belt. Game wardens were busting people for hunting over baited fields. Heck, in farm country up there you have no choice but to hunt around baited fields of some type because the deer seasons fall right in the middle of harvest time and there is corn laying in every field and the only places hunters can put up stands is in trees in the fence rows between the corn, mullet or Sorghum fields. Midway threw the first year they dropped that rule and anyone that was arrested prior to that were all released and all fines and any thing else was returned. I realize that was along read but no other way to explain it.     Since the season was opened in 1990  car insurance costs have also dropped since the number of claims for hitting deer on the highways has also declined.  On average 200+ deer were hit by cars and trucks per day across the state. That rate last year was about 70 per day and it has gone down every year since 1995 so the hunting season is working.................... :up:  :up:  :up:   

Discovery Announcement ~ The densest element in  the known  Universe has finally been found.  Pelosium:   A major research institution has just announced  the discovery  of the densest element yet known to science. The new element  has been named Pelosium. Pelosium has one neutron, 12 assistant neutrons, 75 deputy neutrons,  and 223 assistant deputy neutrons, giving it an atomic mass  of 311. These particles are held together by dark forces  called morons, which are surrounded by vast quantities of lepton-like particles called peons. The symbol of Pelosium is PU.  Pelosium's mass actually increases over time,  as morons  randomly interact with various elements in the atmosphere  and become assistant  deputy neutrons within the Pelosium molecule, leading to the  formation of isodopes.  This characteristic of moron-promotion leads some  scientists to believe that Pelosium is formed whenever morons reach a  certain quantity invoting concentration.  

47 years of marriage.. A married couple in their 60s are celebrating their 47th wedding anniversary in a quiet, romantic little restaurant in Florence, Italy.  Suddenly, a tiny yet beautiful fairy appeared on their table. She said, 'For being such an exemplary married couple and for being loving to each other for all this time, I will grant you each a wish.' The wife answered, 'Oh, I want to travel around the world  with my darling husband  The husband thought for a moment: 'Well, this is all very romantic, but an opportunity like this will never come again. I'm sorry my love, but my wish is to have a wife 30 years younger than me.'  The wife, and the fairy, were deeply disappointed, but a wish is a wish! So the fairy waved her magic wand and poof!... The husband became 92 years old.    The moral of this story: Men who are ungrateful bas$tard$ should remember fairies are female..

I thought they said Drones where in the area but they were not armed drones. Just snooping type was all.............jmho

I think it is a great gesture and it is different but as I have been seeing this year for some reason people are really looking more in the Christmas Spirit than in the past several years. I am hearing a lot more people saying Merry Christmas rather than Happy Holidays. Either one is great to hear but I grew up with it being Merry Christmas & Happy New Years................. :up:  :up:  

WE will never know now will we. The LEO never looked to see what was in the trunk or radioed for assistance from superiors to make the decision to release them.................... :squint: :squint: :squint:

According to the serial number sometime between 1989 and 1997. It replaced the 383 model and about about mid 97 or early 98 They introduced the Bersa Plus models. The capacity of this gun is 13 with 1 in the tube and 12 in magazine and the Plus models is 16 rounds with 1 in the tube and 15 in the Magazine. This gun weighs 27 oz. loaded.  The newer version Plus is lighter by 6 ounces.............. :up:

IMO the Millersville LEO should have radioed for a supervisor and back up before ever doing anything else after learning of the body. He made far to many mistakes to be a good officer as reported by his chief. I can promise you there would have been LEO'S and Supervisors on the scene to make a decision to release the car period if I was the original officer. Now they have no clue were the car is. If it is a bomb you can bet it is by now in a different car and still moving towards it's destination. Now, with that said if it was a bomb and several other officers appeared along with Supervisors we may have had our first suicide car bombing in the United States possibly killing several police officers. I do know that as long as the Muslim is in the White House these people are going to move as fast as possible to make our country unsafe because law enforcement does not want to up set the apple cart. My guess is Obama and his family will not continue to remain in the Continental United States when his term expires. He will go to Hawaii to get out of the way of whats coming...............................jmho

Just an answer to the question:   Obama can use drones anytime he chooses to and he plays by no rules except his own.................jmho

I have been looking for a Bersa Plus for quite some time and this is a Bersa Plus 380 Caliber but it is the original Bersa model 85. It was made before they began calling them Thunders. It is the original version of the Plus offered now. I really love this gun. I got to shot it back about 4 months ago but my buddy didn't want to part with it but decided he would trade it for another gun I had. Even swap....... :up: :up: [URL=http://s218.photobucket.com/user/softbaitmaker/media/Expendable%20projectiles%20machines/Picture037_zps968a73c4.jpg.html][/URL] [URL=http://s218.photobucket.com/user/softbaitmaker/media/Expendable%20projectiles%20machines/Picture036_zpsbd533883.jpg.html][/URL]

Back when they were all still around I worked at Brentwood Shell as a auto mechanic and during that 11 year there I worked on Waylon's cars and his wife Jessie Colter's cars, Hanks jr's cars as both of them lived in Brentwood at the time. I also worked on Naomi Judds 1954 Cadillac she bought from Conway Twitty before his death and Ronnie Milsap's limo's were all serviced there also and I met him a couple times. I had a great job back then. Got to meet a few of the better songwriters that traded there also............. :up: :up:

Those are good but I like Clint Smiths better from Thunder Ranch..............jmho   "Beware the man who only has one gun. He probably knows how to use it!" "An armed man will kill an unarmed man with monotonous regularity." "A reporter did a human-interest piece on the Texas Rangers. The reporter recognized the Colt Model 1911 the Ranger was carrying and asked him 'Why do you carry a 45?' The Ranger responded, 'Because they don't make a 46.'" "When seconds count, the cops are just minutes away." "I carry a gun cause a cop is too heavy." "The purpose of fighting is to win. There is no possible victory in defense. The sword is more important than the shield, and skill is more important than either. The final weapon is the brain. All else is supplemental." "You cannot save the planet. You may be able to save yourself and your family." "You have the rest of your life to solve your problems. How long you live depends on how well you do it." "You can say 'stop' or 'alto' or use any other word you think will work but I've found that a large bore muzzle pointed at someone's head is pretty much the universal language." "Don't shoot fast, shoot good." "If you carry a gun, people will call you paranoid. That's ridiculous. If I have a gun, what in the hell do I have to be paranoid for." "If you're not shootin', you should be loadin'. If you're not loadin, you should be movin', if you're not movin', someone's gonna cut your head off and put it on a stick." "Make your attacker advance through a wall of bullets. I may get killed with my own gun, but he's gonna have to beat me to death with it, cause it's gonna be empty." "Don't forget, incoming fire has the right of way." "Every time I teach a class, I discover I don't know something." "The two most important rules in a gunfight are: always cheat and always win." "The handgun would not be my choice of weapon if I knew I was going to a fight. ...I'd choose a rifle, a shotgun, an RPG or an atomic bomb instead."

I spend money in my local Kroger at least 5-7 times a month and always have 200 + fuel points each month and I am always armed concealed............. :up: :up:
