I'm seeing improvement, they looked like they actually wanted to "play to win", vs play to keep from losing. They played 4 full quarters of football today, and it was fun to watch Pruett get a flag for argueing with the refs. But the refs needed several flags thrown against themselves. They don't need to be discussing "bowl games" yet tho.

Prayers for all of your family and a speedy recovery.

I belong to a couple firearm related FB groups, (LEE reloading equipment & a 17HMR group), and they have constant warnings about no selling of firearms within those groups. Some posts are deleted by the mods or by FB monitors, and it may/may not ever show up again. Most posts I see are about issues they are having, or their latest purchases like show and tell. I've posted some rifle cases for sale in the marketplace, got a message on my FB page from "them" that my ad did not meet their guidelines, the pictures were of gun cases only, no firearms pictured, and plainly stated no firearms were included. I even stated there were numerous other ads exactly like my ad of gun cases only, and they finally relented, but it was a hassle. I'm on FB only to keep up with family and friends, etc.,(the social aspect) but I don't do any "research" on anything on FB. I just google it and then look for websites that I know would be related to what I'm after. If it's a business, a FB link may/may not show up, and I may click on the link to see what I see, but I would not make a decision on the FB link. Sometimes, friends will post something but it does not show up for 1-3 days before I see it, wife says the same thing about her friends, and they DO NOT discuss firearms. Mostly knitting related projects, and pictures of kittens and puppies. FB restricts the information in lots of different ways to all members.

Gonna take some big hands to work that lever action, even just to grip it, but then where or how do you grip it with the lever/thumbhole/slight suggestion of a pistol grip set up.

Fireants are fairly common in E TN, least in my neck of the woods.

Zippo's are pretty tough items. I've got my 1st one from high school, or there abouts. If I put some lighter fluid in it, it would probably light right up. Sometimes you got to use a bit of force to get those corroded items apart, I wonder if the lighter was his fathers, uncles, etc, or just one he got some how.

There is, or was a reloading supply store in Mt Juliet, opposite side of I 40 from the big shopping center. They may be able to help you get going. A LEE single stage would be a good press to start with, you have to do each step separately, which reduces the possibility of making a mistake. I have a LEE breech lock single stage that I load 204R/223/22-250 on, have loaded enough ammo for p dog trips, so it can be done with enough time (I'm retired). The Lyman manual has good instructions, as does the LEE manual. Hornady has some good info in their manual as well. Get one of each for research purposes and to compare load data when the time comes. Lots of people like the RCBS rock chucker for it's durability, quality, etc., but I've had no problems with my LEE. Watch some utube videos on each of those and see which one you might like or prefer, check the store out that I mentioned above, and ask lots and lots of questions.

It's something they don't do in public in their hometown. They will travel to the next town tho. LOL

Hey Kevin; I've got a e caller I've never used, and a 17hmr & a couple 10/22's that are suitable for suppressor use.

Guess I better call a lawyer and start a lawsuit against anyone who has made ice cream for the past 64 yrs, .

I use a MTM brush/jag container http://www.mtmcase-gard.com/products/shooting/gun-cleaning-jag.html to control my jags/brushes, some small food storage containers about the size of single serving of baby food for cleaning patches, a small (Folgers) coffee tub to hold various small bottles of cleaning solvents. The bottles I use I got from the wife's hair color packages, ear or eye drop bottles, etc. whatever size I need. Even the original bottles of Remington gun oil work well for solvents, and these fit into the Folgers tub nice and snug, can't tip over and spill but that is what the tub is for anyways. All of these items fit into a lunchbox size soft bag with a zipper closeure. I even keep a universal bore guide in this bag as well. I use PVC pipe to carry/protect cleaning rods, and put some dense foam padding in the end caps to protect the rod tips. I used this system for about 3 yrs now, with no spills, bent rods or lost items. I keep this lunch box cooler bag in a plastic tote along with my spotting scope, targets, notepads, etc. etc. I have similar totes for my front rest, and rear bags, and other miscellaneous ranges items. I clean my rifles at the range, I have the gun out, just remove the bolt, get the cleaning rods and lunchbox bag and clean on the bench. The front rest and rear bag hold the rifle just fine, but I do hold onto the rifle to avoid accidents. I probably carry too much, (think of all the "stuff" needed for a newborn), and I'm close. Two totes stay in the bed of my truck all the time except when I'm towing the TT, a 3rd tote goes in when I shoot rimfire matches as that holds my front rest for that rifle, and a smaller 4th tote holds the rear bag/misc for the matches. Easy to load and unload from the truck when needed.

Unless you have friends and family that will be able to do the things you want to do/have planned when you retire at 50, you will be bored, unless you enjoy doing things alone. Having the time and money to do retirement things at 50 is great (congrats) but not many people are/will be in that position due to them living their earlier years different than you in terms of saving, etc., Various other life commitments, such as kids in high school, college, grand kids keep most from doing what you are considering.

Another yote vote here. JMO.

All of the RE transactions I've been involved in (close to 10 moves +/- since the late 70's) some expenses are the sellers responsibility and some are the buyers responsibility. RE taxes are usually pro-rated to the date of sale, unless it's part of the agreement. A closing statement, or settlement statement details out where all the pennies come and go. Some expenses are negotiable, if not, then the "standard" method applies as a general rule. Did you get a legally binding contract on the sale with the terms detailed out, or just the "good 'ol boy" contract of "sure, I'll pay that for it " ??????

No argument at all. The FL game may be a close one at times (accidents do happen) but the ALA game is close only before the game starts.

Can't really argue with this at all. I wonder if UT will cancel the homecoming game so as to avoid some more embarrassment for the season.

And I've only seen bits and pieces of #2. I do have it on the DVR but just haven't gotten to watching it. Wife moaned and groaned at the violence in #1, so been waiting for her to be gone for the day on a rainy day, but rainy days are FAR and FEW these days. Almost like a unicorn. LOl

Should be more accustomed to a "loss" by that time then shouldn't we. LOL

Not looking all that promising at this point. IIRC, Vandy scored 38 pts against LSU, ranked #4. Either Vandy's got a decent offense, or the #4 ranked team has no defense. Either way it's not looking good for UTK

At least UTK is NOT winning this game, so to speak. LOL https://www.saturdaydownsouth.com/arkansas-football/arkansas-sets-embarrassing-2019-record-for-biggest-payout-to-a-school-just-to-lose/?fbclid=IwAR2YNrG6UvHSNCOqlxSwaAaiEs7zDlcOQzN99sZNSFMeW73DzyUlfFHSefA

https://www.guntrustguru.com/faqs Scroll down and you'll see where a woman in TX had a self prepared revocable trust declared invalid (aka not worth the paper used). Does not mention any weapons being seized. Also states that the ATF has not questioned the validity of any gun trusts, but don't know how recent the info in this link is. The ATF cannot just "declare" a trust invalid, only a court of law could make that determination. The author also seems to create some confusion with his wording of "revocable living trust" and a NFA gun trust interchangeably. In my mind, the two should not be used in this manner. A revocable living trust is a legal document just like the NFA gun trust is, but the two have totally different objectives IMO. The two have similar powers, terminology and objectives, and could be created/controlled under one document but only a well versed estate planning attorney familiar with ATF regs should be consulted if this is desired. A "canned" or boilerplate trust document from an online source would create some interesting legal issues IMO. I would use separate lawyers for each purpose but make sure both lawyers are aware of my intentions, so things would be laid out as I desired.

Sounds like the ATF/Liberals/etc/etc won't really be able to compile a list of all gun owners for years, or decades, or longer based on the way the records are received in so many different ways and forms as there is no standardized (required) method for FFL's to track or record their sales. Then the record could go cold because the firearm in question was stolen, given away, etc., The article refers to microfiche machines being used for research, what a joke. That in itself can take hours or days for someone to find what they are truly looking for, and then the micro fiche itself could be in poor shape so the image is not legible, and then those fiche readers are no longer made, so when the bulb burns out, gov't employees will have to hire a contractor to replace, which will have to bid on the contract, etc., The ATF probably has a computer system similar to the IRS, one that is woefully outdated, has numerous software patches, and uses a card reader (Fortran programming) to do some simple function. And if the ATF has a newer/more advanced computer system at it's disposal, what software could they use to compile all of the information from all of those handwritten documents. The ATF would want/need custom software, and how long would that take to get written? I doubt any of us will see any thing close to a "master list" of gun owners in our lifetimes, or our grandchildren.

That's funny. You must be running for an elected position... throwing out those "pie in the sky" promises. LOL

I started with corrective lenses in the 7th grade, now wear progressive tri-focals. The only time I don't have 'em on is when I turn out the lights at night, and put 'em on before I take a step in the morning. Go see your eye doctor on a regular basis. I have to go every 6 months for early stages of glaucoma.

https://www.aclu.org/other/how-usa-patriot-act-redefines-domestic-terrorism The definition of domestic terrorism is broad enough to encompass the activities of several prominent activist campaigns and organizations. Greenpeace, Operation Rescue, Vieques Island and WTO protesters and the Environmental Liberation Front have all recently engaged in activities that could subject them to being investigated as engaging in domestic terrorism. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Domestic_terrorism Could it be those Bay Area folks are bending the rules to suit their own needs again??
