  1. Yep, it would be very clear if another elevated shooting had occurred in the hotel. I think its most likely reflection of the actual muzzle flashes due to video angle.
  2. That video has earned him some nice long government surveillance. Guy is grieving but, wow, he's not stable
  3. Very sad I've heard lots of people asking how the police located the room, but for anyone who has stayed in a hotel, even a nice one, if someone on your floor is firing a high-powered rifle, you'll know. I'd speculate a neighboring room called it in.
  4. I truly believe that some people are less prone to insect bites than others. As a forester, I work in just about every outdoor environment in the southeast. Now I have had chiggers but very seldom, I also do not get poison Ivy or any of its relatives, not one time. But I've been around co-workers in close proximity get absolutely killed with chiggers and I maybe got one or two.
  5. I knew you were the man to ask, haha. Appreciate the info
  6. I like scotch but it's not my go-to. I like smokey flavor but just depends on how much. I'll try to find some samples. Thanks for the info
  7. Ok so if I were going to pick up some Japanese offerings where should I start? I'll pay the price if it's worth the money just not sure which direction to go.
  8. I really enjoyed Westworld. I binge watched it after Season 1 ended. I've been waiting for season 2 as they've had drawbacks on filming and such, but I heard Spring 2018, so maybe there's light at the end of the tunnel
  9. I quit using photobucket because it would take 9 days for the damn site to load. It was so frustrating that I just abandoned ship. Then I was using picasaweb which was nice until that became google photo and lost the sharing/embedding ability. It would just post a link back to google photo.
  10. The biggest issue is that there is no way to prove what started the fires that caused fatalities and structure damage. Fires were starting by downed power lines as often and blowing embers so there is no way to say the youths were or weren't responsible for the fire in town. I think there is no doubt they started the Chimney Tops 2 fire.
  11. According to new state legislation passed during this past session of the General Assembly, purple paint is now allowable as an alternative to signs to mark “No Trespassing” areas. Purple paint may be used on trees and posts to indicate “No Trespassing.” To review the law passed by Senator Frank Niceley (R) Strawberry Plains & Representative Roger Kane (R) Knoxville, access the General Assembly website at: http://www.capitol.tn.gov/Bills/110/Bill/HB0078.pdf
  12. maybe so, but I'd wager they'll be significantly harder to come by for non-season holders. People have realized how fun hockey is to watch and I'd say that will carry over. Maybe not during football season but after the SuperBowl people will be anxious for sports and the Preds will be it
  13. Of course it's not, I have more, and wager most regular posters in this thread have more as well. But with that said, good luck convincing your wife, if you figure out a way please share it with me
  14. The Bowman is good stuff. If you get the hankerin to try a higher priced option try the John J Bowman single barrel, it's excellent.
  15. There is nothing waterproof except a fishes butthole. But you can get some pretty good products that will keep you dry for a long period of time. My point is depending on the amount of rain and length of time any waterproof fabric will wet through, even high-end Goretex. I recently bought a Mammut Goretex jacket from REI and have been sufficiently happy with it but have not spent a full rainy day in it yet. I like buying from REI cause I'm a member (only costs $10) and you can return any item for any reason after purchase. Even if you just don't like it. But if you buy a 'waterproof' jacket and it wets through in an hour you have to deal with warranty issues and such with the manufacturer. With REI you just return or exchange it
  16. Midges all day everyday Terrestrial will work all day but more productive later in summer usually. Otherwise it's just a matter of what's hatching when. Bug hatches are usually coordinated with sunlight and water temp. So sometimes that's first light and dusk. Sometimes that's afternoon. Some days if its overcast there won't be a hatch other days there will. Just keep and eye on the bugs you see flying, what they are, what time of day it is/conditions, and are the trout being active.
  17. It's so river specific. I'd try zebra midges dropped from a black caddis. I can't imagine that won't catch fish. If you see fish rising I'd be looking to throw a BWO emerger below a BWO dry. Soon in the afternoons you'll start to see Slate Drakes (Isonychia) hatching. If you don't see fish rising stick to nymphs they'll be the most productive and try to focus on a good drift. Don't give up on the streamers. They'll always produce. Change up color. Go to lighter to mimic shad that might be coming through the dam. Or pic up a Clouser minnow. Lots of rivers are seeing high numbers of shad right now and trout are eating them. Most of all be patient and keep fishing
  18. Still fishing the Hiwassee?
  19. I found the finale frustrating. Bullets start flying and Rick doesn't shoot the trash lady? The gun was 6 inches from his face. Easy to deflect and shoot he already had his pistol in hand. So stupid. Negan is clearly bullet proof.
  20. We used to use Bluegrass Animal Hospital on Ebenezer Rd. They were always nice and professional.
  21. imagine this with 2017 film technology. Could be even more spectacular.
  22. I used to do it a lot when I lived in Knoxville. Fish are generally smaller but you can find some pretty nice ones in the bigger water. Go to Little River Outfitters in Townsend. They are such a great fly shop and will give you all the Smoky fly fishing info you could want. Good Dry fly fishing in the spring (now)
  23. Yeah I wouldn't fish anything that heavy under a dry. it just won't do any good, just fish the streamer alone. Sometimes when you see fish breaking the surface they're actually eating bugs just under the surface. So fishing a dry fly with an emerger as a dropper can catch fish. Next time you buy flies look for some BWO emerger patterns
  24. He's shady I'd steer clear of him
