Though I recalled reading that somewhere, but perhaps not. Sucks getting old...

I completely lost interest after the fallout from Earnhardt Sr's death. The "sport" had clearly been moving in the direction of being more about "the show" than actual racing, and that was the last straw for me. I used to live near Bristol and went to one race maybe 10 years ago. Most awful race track experience of my life. Exceedingly boring race, drunks screaming profanities at drivers who can't see or hear them, rednecks spilling beer on my wife, most people only getting excited when there was a wreck, and don't get me started on the traffic.... I just don't see the draw. We learned to leave town on race weekends.

No kidding. If the stock market sagging a bit over the course of a week or so is a sign of the apocalypse, we should all be pretty good at dealing with that sort of calamity by now.

As you adapt to the new norm, your hand will get much stronger than you think. Like anything else, it'll take time and practice.

I thought there was open season on feral cats? Aren't they considered a nuisance animal, much like coyotes?

Bushy shrubs can generally be done any time, though late winter right before they start growing again may be best. Otherwise, I prune most all my trees and bushes in late fall to early winter.

Welcome!

Wow. That's really nice!

Cool video and good illustration of the differences. A good follow-up might be showing your friends' improvement in both speed and accuracy with improved trigger control. And I'll be completely honest, in all the prior videos I've watched, I never noticed you were missing an arm.

    WD-40's best use is as a solvent.  I use it to clean the chain on my motorcycle.  Spray it down and let it soak for a minute, then wipe until it's clean.  Takes less than 10 minutes and I've never had my chain get rusty. 

Ok, maybe it's a SBR. It's a tax stamp regardless.

"the time of year when humidity is high".... Like not January or February? ;) The WD-40 Corrosion Specialist is different from regular WD-40. And I found some recently at Lowes. It was something like $10 for a smallish can, but I got one anyway.

    Just run it like a Russian would.... whack the crap out of it.  Mine's actually really smooth.   And just to be clear... that's an NFA item.  It's either a DD or AOW, I forget which.

  FTFY.

Pfffft. Amateurs.

    That smells of an excuse for a "head count reduction".  I've lived through my share of those, and they suck.

Wow, that really sucks.  In Kentucky of all places too.  Hopefully this will lead to something better. 

Bump... this coming weekend.  Lots of good stuff has been donated for the silent auction.    http://standtogethertn.com/index.php/silent-auction/   Bring a few friends and come say howdy for a good cause.    https://www.facebook.com/StandTogetherTN

A well defined and rehearsed plan.     I've got modest amounts of food, water, medical supplies (for minor stuff, major trauma would be a big problem), ammo... etc.  If communications go down, getting my family back together might be a problem.  I would assume my wife would default to meeting back at home, but we'd have to collect the kids. 

    Hey, Mythbusters proved it's possible to polish a turd....  http://www.discovery.com/tv-shows/mythbusters/videos/polishing-a-turd-minimyth/     But I doubt even that would help a Glock.  :)

I think I know where he's talking about and it is neither a federal facility nor a power utility.    Ask your employer.  If you're a contract employee, read the entire contract very carefully and ask questions of the contracting company.    While the law says you can, your employer likely says we can fire you at any time for any reason.  Violation of company policy is a good reason to get fired.  To date there's no case law to help guide the decision of then suing your former employer for wrongful termination (which the law now states you specifically can do) for doing something that's legal.  I wouldn't want to be the first to test those waters.  YMMV.

:rofl:     My wife and I came to an an understanding fairly early on.... the lid is always closed.  That way, we both always have to open/close something. 

No limit that I'm aware of, but I haven't dug real deep through the TCA on it. 

    Yep.  Ask the eye doc about Z87 certified lenses.  They will probably come with some really lame looking frames and side shields, but they're usually fairly cheap.  Regular polycarbonate lenses and Z87 certified lenses are not necessarily the same thing, especially if your prescription is fairly mild. 

Welcome!
