Yes, this is EXACTLY according to my theory, as I said on March 1. Anyone could have predicted this.

Very interesting to read so many sad stories. I guess I was lucky in that the first couple of times I tried alcohol I got sick and puked my guts out. A couple of times was enough for me. But I, too, have seen friends and family kill themselves or wreck their lives with the stuff. One thing that strikes me is the very positive light that movies and TV shows put on alcohol. One hardly ever sees a movie aimed at adults that doesn't include drinking. And even drunks are dipicted as happy people that are fun to be around.

I think that it might be going a bit too far to allow deadly response to trespass. I see that as opening a really big can of worms.

I have a strong theory, too, but I'm going to wait until the investigation results are made public before I post it here.

We were poor. I had to put my sandwich in my pocket. Or if I was really luck, into an empty bread bag. Actually, I usually had a lunch ticket, but if my mom gave me the fifty cents, or whatever it was, for lunch, I'd stop at Wing's store on the way to school and buy Malt Balls, which were two for a penny. They were gone LONG before lunch time.

I listen to his radio show IF I happen to be in a car or truck at that time. I enjoy listening to him, but as with anyone who makes his living as a talking head, you can't take every word as gospel.

I'm surprised, as I assume that Bongino makes a whole helluva lot more money as a broadcaster than he will as Dep Director. Maybe that means he truly wants to make a positive contribution. The way these things should work is that talented people give up some of their time to serve, then return to their business after a period or government service.

It looks just about the same here in Hebbertsburg. The good news is that the roads are clear. The bad news is that they're wet and it's going to freeze hard tonight and tomorrow.

So I want to buy a Tennessee fishing license, and I'm unsure of the difference between the Senior Sportsman license and the Permanent Senior Citizen Hunt Fish Trap license. It looks to me like the difference is that one is annual and requires no other tags or fees, and one is permanent but DOES require paying fees for certain hunts. I'm over 65, so eligible for either. What are the advantages / disadvantages of the two? Thanks!

I'm casually looking for one, too. There are a few listed on Facebook Marketplace.

Hell Fire! I just did the same thing! I went to a Title Company office this afternoon to close on a property I'm buying, and no DL or CWP in my wallet! Fortunately for me, the Notary Public was okay with my VA ID card and my retired government ID card, so the property closed without any problems. The last time I remember having them out of my wallet was last October. I'll go tomorrow for duplicates, and then I'll find them somewhere in my desk or dresser both of which I've emptied out twice now. Doh!

Where was that? My grandfather was heavily engaged in the coal mine wars in Harlan county, KY.

I followed the suggestions above, except that I could find no city and state for Richard Fairburn. I filled in his name anyway, but who knows if that vote will be accepted. Thanks for the info! Even though I know none of the people on the ballot, I hope that there will be enough votes for reform candidates, even if not all are elected, that the board will understand that a LOT of life members are unhappy with the past misdirection of the NRA. There's an editorial in the current NRA magazine that leads me to believe that current management gets it, but nothing speaks more loudly than votes.

I've been a life member for 40 years or more, and have never voted. I will this year.

PM incoming for the bow.

I bought mine when I was 12 at the local Western Auto store. I still have it, and still shoot it from time to time.

Prices?

Wowzer! I reckon my ancient Dell laptop is good enough for keeping up on the internet and the too-frequent game of solitaire, though. I had an original version of Flight Simulator way back when, it seems to have advanced a bit since then...

Congratulations on your escape! I lived in California for a time while I was in the Corps, but it hadn't gone nuts back then. (mid-70's) I came to TN from Washington about 5 years ago, and I couldn't be happier with my decision to move here. i hope you like it as much as I do. Do you play racquetball? We have a small group that plays at the courts there in Cookeville.

Back in Washington the nasty things flocked pretty heavily into the Navy base at Bremerton. They were just about totally safe there, but if it had been legal one could have walked up, grabbed one, and wrung its neck. As it was they pooped all over the sidewalks.

Good luck to you, and best wishes.

I found one recipe in the Lee manual for 30-30 subsonic loads. Well, four different loads with one bullet and one powder. Using 125g bullets you can load H335 from 18 - 22 grains to yield velocities ranging from 890 - 1100 fps. The manual has a warning that the 18 and 19 grain loads can be double-charged inside the case. Please check the manual yourself to be sure I haven't made a transcription error. Wow! $800 for a 4 pound jug of Trailboss? Are people really that desperate for dirty-burning, fluffy powder? ***** Note- I DID in fact make a transcription error. The low load was 18 grains, not 10. ****

That camera was probably made in China. If you travel there you'll be able to hold it rightside up. It should work okay in Australia as well.
