[Well someone did try to put Chlorine in the gene pool.]

When I saw the news footage I thought it was a convention for mascots that didn't make the cut,lol.

 

That or those nasty characters that haunt Times Square wanting you to take a pic with them.

 

[Chicken wing bones in backyard.]

Are there any stray dogs in the area ?

That would be my topic starter for the neighbor if so.

As in "hey guys, have you been seeing any odd bones turn up in your yard " ?

Or

"Hey guys, has anything been digging in your trash " ?

It might take some doing but I would find a way to get them bones into the conversation.

[Bus Wreck?]

That makes sense at that light. Every afternoon its like a drag race from the exit to that light, lol.

[Bus Wreck?]

Happened at intersection of Asheville Hwy and John Sevier Hwy, both big ass roads. Asheville Hwy is divided road there so doesn't seem like head on. Maybe one bus hit the other while it was turning into Asheville Hwy or something.

- OS

Amazing as it sounds OS, reports out this morning shows the east bound bus (44) crossed the median and struck the westbound bus (57). I travel that road daily and where they collided is the only part for miles where there's no ditch dividing the lanes. Back when they redone the bridge they paved to reroute traffic and thats where the bus came across.

[Bus Wreck?]

Just watched video from the nightly news on NBC.
Appeared to look like a t bone situation. One was on its side and the other had the front tore off back even with the stop sign.

[NO, i'm not going to eat that.... (rant)]

yea.. you ever seen what comes off one of those that has not been washed in 20 years? its gross...

I am letting it rust away .. symbolic kinda.. lol

ANYTHING not washed for that long will be a lil funky :)

[Sherrif rips Holder a new one.]

So glad he is of the same race otherwise this would be another lautner type of incident.

I can't help but think this is all for not though because unless I am wrong holder is on his way out.

[Land Value]

Any idea what year the owner bought it ?

[Black Pot-Homebrew Question]

I wasnt going to chime in because I dont brew but I have several stainless and aluminum pots for deep frying and pressure cooking and canning and they all have that layer. First time it happened I freaked but after reading the manual the mfg. said it would happen. Never researched further but its nice to know now :)

[Good chainsaw for the money?]

Husqvarna all around here.

395xp 36" for big stuff
142 18" trim saw
323 weedeater
3?? hedger

Only time they won't start after one or two pulls is when the gas line has dry rotted and the primer bulb is sucking wind , lol.

[Buds gun shop Sevierville]

Judging by where they decided to put a store I imagine they won't jump off into the "tacticool" dept too heavily right off the bat.

When I think sevierville I think traffic and lots of travel dollars floating in. But I also think wives in a hurry to get to the outlets.

Now BUDS GUN ACCESSORIES inside tanger and a husband can shop all day without so much as a text.
Hell, just put a bar and lounge in and a couple big screens and call it home !

[Michael Brown's criminal history]

Attacking anyone, especially an officer of the law, might get you killed.

Thats common knowledge even to overgrown man children.

Even if he never had a record I am willing to bet because of his size he got his way.

I know that sounds odd but I graduated with three overgrown giants. 2 went on to play college football until it was discovered neither could read. The third is in prison now.The point ? All three were skating through life based on their size and not their academics.

Just look at interviews given by athletes. Some of them have a hard time linking sentences.

And just so this isn't viewed as racist, my fellow graduates were all white and all three were upper class.much better off financially than I was.

[Has the Dictator lost his shine!!!!!]

Dope Of Hope is on NBC as I type this.

 

I get the feeling while many are watching big bang on one channel americans are getting a BIG BANG on another :(

[Remember when I ask for a deer if folks had two many??]

Well I have no problem traveling west for some but Nashville would probably be as far as I would want to haul it back from, lol. Even to Chattanooga to the south.

I'll keep an eye out ;)

[Remember when I ask for a deer if folks had two many??]

Dang !!!

 

I was just thinking last night how I'd love to find someone in the east tn area that had an extra deer or even some bear.

 

As big a gun enthusiast as I am I just have no interest in freezing my arse off out in the woods.

 

But if anyone in the East part of the state has anything extra please shoot me a pm and lets talk.

[Lumbersexual - the new Metrosexual]

You have a pair of deer? That's pretty kick ass

Roflmfao.

[Time to break out the Christmas avatar...]

Its all about the money, as usual. Made a very rare trip to the mall today and all I can say is WOW. Looked like black friday crowds. Advertising companies have an easy job these days. They announced last week the whole month of November was black friday.

Face it, Thanksgiving has officially been given THE BIRD :)

[Just had a Burger King manager want to fight me]

Turns out the worm did not get fired, he was moved to a BK that is actually closer to where I live.

I guess this is BK's response to "have it your way" :)

[Cleaning smoke smell out of house (wall cleaning solution)]

And another note on the ceiling (as I stare at it now) I used a 1/2" knap roller and lathered that filthy bastard with kilz. Had a couple stalactites to clip once done but she's just as pretty today ;)

[Cleaning smoke smell out of house (wall cleaning solution)]

The house I am typing this from was a foreclosure. Needless to say the former tenants were not happy about having to leave and left every door and window open for about 2 months. It became a haven for every animal that could walk ,crawl and defecate.

I used oil based kilz on the entire house floors to ceiling where possible. Backed that up with commercial primer (wasn't a 2-n-1 at the time ) then painted it according to the room. The ceiling I left kilz where I could and just painted over it with ceiling white where guests would send the difference. And to tell you how much I avoid painting, I agreed to and installed crown moulding in lieu of painting the living room and kitchen. :)

[Nashville Draftsman Needed]

It just so happens I am needing a draftsman in the knoxville area. And using a TGO member would be even better. We have considered doing like the OP and buying a set online but we have more than just a change or two.

TerryW, I will delete this if you consider it a hijack. Dont want to step on toes. :)

[I've got a serious problem.]

I wouls stop short of letting it ruin my marriage, LOL

[Kitchen knife recommendations]

I'm looking at getting a set of Wusthof or Shun knives. I'm leaning towards Wusthof as they appear to keep their edge longer.
Does anyone have a recommendation or know where the best place to get them is? So far, Bed, Bath, and Beyond had a 20% off coupon on the Wusthof which seems the cheapest.

Check kitchen collection and le gourmet chef at a tanger outlet.

Otherwise a close eye on ebay and you might snag one.

[[Push Reel Mowers] Which one to buy?]

Only one I would ever want is that totally slicked out model that Jobe (jeff fahey) had in lawnmower man.

That, my friends, is how a man keeps his mower ;)

[Just had a Burger King manager want to fight me]

The best way to handle it I found is to take it to social media. While fast food joints are no longer on my list of go to places, I still have to shop for the essentials. I have seen quicker responses to being treated sh!tty by going right up the chain of command via email or one of the social media outlets.
