  1. Yea Omega, I know that the date of the big tank is expired and it went out of date in 3 years. I was going to hook it up to my grill when I learned that the tank has an expiration date on it and then I learned something I didn't know. If you own a big tank like mine and the date expires you can take it to a Service Center such as Ameriagas and they will test the tank and if it is still safe they will update the tank for another 3 years and stamp it as updated. Any licensed Dealer can test your tank and update it for you and won't charge you if you have it filled there after they test it. TSC is not a certified dealer but just a refill center. As for the small tanks, I take those to Walmart or Academy Sports or about any swapping station that sells the Rhino refills and they just swap it out and don't bother looking at dates. So my big tank can be tested and refilled if I even need to use it..............
  2. I don't have a generator but I do have a good stock of Propane. When I first moved here I was not aware of how efficient the power company was here so began planning on propane for heat in winter and to cook with. Bought all the stuff necessary to heat my cabin and bought Coleman camper cook stove plus I have a gas Grill. I purchased a 60 lb Propane tank and took it and got it filled at TSC. That was 15 years ago and it is still full along with ten 20 lb tanks store in my building and all are still full. I do rotate them cause I cook on my grill a lot but I really have been considering selling the 60 lb tank. The Power Company here is on top of their game when power goes out. Longest I have been without power was 4 days and that was because a wind storm took down a large tree 2 doors below me taking down the lines. The delay was not in the Power Company but in the neighbor and their insurance company dragging their feet about getting someone out to cut the tree up and get it of the lines. Power Company won't do that unless it is in the street and this one was in their back yard. I also have about 50 of the small bottles on hand for Coleman cook stove and 3 propane lanterns with about 25 packs of mantles. Right now I think it may be over kill but who knows what tomorrow might bring?................JMHO
  3. Yep! Keep you eye on Craigs List and then when you find what you want tell them you will do the transaction at the local police station. If they agree you may be good to go. If they say no keep looking!!!!!............JMHO
  4. If I had that big a safe you can bet I would be paying someone to move it period!!! I would shop around at every possible company that moves them and might not pick the cheapest cause if I have not used them before or know someone that has I will be going with one that has references.............JMHO
  5. Well, let me put it this way then. Over the last 8 years we had a President that was dead set on destroying our Military and our defenses and he cut billions of dollars out of our military and I am guessing a great bit of that funding cut was to our maintainence and up keep of our Nuclear program so lets just do a few up grades to possible fixed what he may have broke............JMHO
  6. Well, your probably correct and I would be willing to bet we probably already have a military warehouse pack plum full of them. I mean this guy had 1 for the demonstration and Youtube Video so who is to say they are not already in production???? The only part of it that bothers me is the lack of human control and allowing a computer to be in charge of killing machines. Especially when you look at the antique computer system we have in control of all of our Nukes at the present time. The Feds Call it "Fail Safe" I call it a "Ticking Time Bomb" if they don't get busy and upgrade it............JMHO
  7. Well I might know why they did not kill her off. If you remember in Return of the Jedi it was revealed to Darth Vader that Luke had a Twin Sister and if he got killed off Leia would be the Last Jedi so since the title was Last Jedi they could not kill her off, at least that is the way I would look at it but I have heard a few friends talk about it that went to see it and also saw all of the earlier movies and they say this one kinda sucks.
  8. Yep and if we don't make it some radical country will. We made the A-bomb and now many countries have them. There are things better left to Hollywood motion picture sci-fi programs than introduced in reality. The problem is some lunatics don't know when to leave somethings alone. One Moron will have the Technology but not the funding and some idiot with the money will want the power and all at once they have them. Remember the post of the drone with the pistol mounted on it?...........JMHO
  9. I try to avoid any conflicts regarding state and local parks when at all possible because the laws change as fast as the weather does in Tennessee and it's almost imposssible to keep up with them......................
  10. Well I don't have to see it now since I know most everything about it but it all honesty after watching all the parts of it they showed in commercials for last couple months i was not planning on going anyway. I am a Star Wars nut and have DVD's of every episode in Trilogies. I have not got the last two which is Rogue One and this one. I will probably buy them when they are both out in DVD just to be able to pass them down to my youngest grandson that has taken an interest in my collection.
  11. Last time I was up there was with my wife in 1996 and we spent a long weekend up there.....
  12. Sounds like a personal problem to me. Maybe you should offer to cook her supper 1 night and do the dishes!!!! Always worked for me years ago.................
  13. Crime stoppers says you can remian anoynomous and still receive the reward. I have never quite figure that out yet but that is what they say anyway. How can they not now who you are to make the reward payment to?..............
  14. Couch is 1 level about the sleeping bag on the floor so be happy...............
  15. I have often wondered about the world wide surveillace network myself. It has been said that most everyone in the world is under it everyday in some way. I won't say it is impossible but just does not seem entirely possible. If that were anywhere near true how come a bank robbery who they have at least 10 different pictures of is not caught right away or why do murders take place right out in the open on city streets and they say there are no witnesses. Why can the authorities not apprehend bad guys much quicker? Every evening the news will show clear pictures of robbers and ask for your help in catchng them and ask you to call police yet you never hear of anyone that knows this person or calls police even when rewards are offered. Just things I wonder about...............
  16. I am always interested in WWII artifacts and that one is very unique for sure...........
  17. I will say this and not say much else. I had 2 parents that raised 5 sons. I am 4 of 5. My father was not around a lot because he was a truck driver over the road so much of the raising was left to my mother. If there is one thing that remains in my memory of her was her temper. With that said at the age of 6 my mother got mad at me for bouncing a rubber ball in the house. I was in short pants cause it was summer and had no shirt on. She grabbed me and put me in a kitchen chair and took a 6 foot rubber coated extension cord and whipped me from my head to my feet stood me up and whipped my back and slammed me back down in the chair. Went to a kitchen drawer, pilled out a butcher knife and put it in my face. Her words to me were , You Little Son of a bit-ch, I brought you in this damn world and I can take you out of it. From that day until the day I learned she died in a house fire I never liked my mother. I loved her out of respect that she gave me life but I ever liked her ever again. I did not attend her funeral and I visit her grave because she is buried with my father which I dearly loved and respected. The only one of my siblings I spoke with was my oldest brother and he died 4 years ago. I don't know if any of the rest of them are alive or dead and really don't care as none of us have spoke in more than 10+ years. I do kind of know kind of where you are coming from Murgatroy but you have made a life for your family that is good and you are doing what you need to do right now and that is to vent!!! Talk about it, get what is locked inside you out and it will help. I know I kept stuff locked inside and when I was finally able to vent it was like the world was lifted off my shoulders. Hope it will work for you also. Venting is not asking for pity!!! It is getting stuff off your chest so you can make life even better in the future..............JMHO
  18. Ahhh You might be able to drowned worms but minnows might be a different story..........
  19. I don't know about TV by itself but now with the invention of the smart phones that allow you to do it all including watch your favorite TV shows and people that are sitting next to each other bench waiting for the Bus will text each other rather than just speak to each other. To me those are more enslaving then anything else. Stats show that the average person will check their cell phones an average of 100 times a day. Smart phones are more addictive than Morphine.......JMHO
  20. Funny but I thought there would be a few more on here..............
  21. GOSH!!!!! no fair............all I got when I was a kid was Lincoln Logs to build things with.....
  22. Ok , I know it's a little early to talk bass fishing but just wanting to know if we have any somewhat dedicated bass anglers here???
  23. Well I don't know how big the one was you got last year and I hope you reach your goal. My goal has been alot different. I would guess I have probably killed 100+ deer over my lifetime and as long as it was legal to shoot it went in the freezer and I never put a mount on my wall even though over the years I have taken about four 12 pointers and two 14 pointers back years ago while I lived on my Grandfathers Farm/Ranch. I think I can probably find the racks. I think they are down stored in one of my sons buildings. I always thought one day I would make something out of them but the years have slipped by to fast I guess. My Grand father told me if I was hunting for Antlers I need to go to Alaska. If I am looking for meat for the freezer take 4 points or less and let the big ones walk and that is what I have done since he told me that. If I had a 4 point and a spike come along together I would take the spike. I have 1 small buck in the freezer right now and I'm hoping for a couple does for it now. My son and Grandson said they could probably get me 1 more doe. They said those poachers screwed up their season this year.
  24. Congrads for sure!!!! bet that new freezer is getting a workout..............
  25. I have several friends that own mini farms and huge farms and both have Bobcats in their timber areas and the cats do hunt the fence rows at night as they put up trail cams to see what the deer are doing before the season opens. They did have a few Coyotes at one time but they all have said that they have not seen any on trail cams in years since the cats showed up. On guy sent me a picture of a female B Cat and three babies drinking water out of one of the farm ponds so they are reproducing on his farm in Cheatham county. He also said he would rather have the cats then Yotes. As far as Turkeys go Cats will kill a Turkey for food. Unlike a Coyote the Bobcat is an excellent climber and will take a Turkey out of a tree at night while they are roosting.
