The usual precautions against pipes freezing. Last time it got really cold (single digits), I went into my crawlspace and found the temp to be in the 40's. A couple days worth of food and water in the house. More depending on where you live and how long you could be stuck. A way to cook said food without electricity. A kit in the vehicle to help make walking a couple miles home in the snow/ice a little less miserable.

Very cool. My favorite Floyd song. This rendition gives me chills... https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=kqXD5NKj4d4

Duluth .... best commercials ever! :D

A good friend's wife grew up there. It's just a little rural community.

Shrimp do have a lot of cholesterol.... but practically no saturated fat which is the big hitter as far as LDL is concerned. How they're cooked has a bigger impact on the total nutrition numbers than anything else. Besides, if you tell me I can't have shrimp.... :slap: :) http://www.healthline.com/health/shrimp-cholesterol-and-heart-health http://blog.foodnetwork.com/healthyeats/2014/01/30/shrimp-myths-vs-facts/

I've shot both but own neither. I'd keep the 6".

80% lower help. Knox/Blount area
peejman replied to jaxjohn419's topic in Gunsmithing & Troubleshooting
Prep work is key. Note that you'll have to remove the finish all around the area so the epoxy will adhere properly. Rinse it thoroughly with acetone and handle it only with rubber gloves after you remove the finish. It also states to use fiberglass to bridge "large holes"... I'd say yours qualifies as large. I'd also do the heat cure. http://www.devcon.com/prodfiles/pdfs/fam_tds_107.pdf -
Awesome. :rofl:

Yep, portion control is the key. The hard part of that is adjusting your perception of what a serving should look like, and then adjusting the size of your stomach so a serving makes you feel satisfied. And that's another point.... I think of it as 3 levels of the quantity you eat. 1 - eat until you're satisfied. 2 - eat until you're full. 3 - eat until you're stuffed and miserable. For me... eating until level 2 was normal and level 3 was pretty regular. Over the course of a day, level 2 is probably +200-400 calories and level 3 is +500-1000 calories. That's a lot. Having the discipline to stop at level 1 is really hard for me. Food is expensive and I hate wasting it. I wish I was like my 4 yr old... when he's hungry, he eats. When he's not hungry, it's hard to convince him to eat anything. He's skinny as a rail. I've also got diabetes, heart disease, high cholesterol, and high blood pressure in my family. I make an effort to control my salt and sugar intake. Blood work shows sugar is fine and cholesterol is borderline high. I try to eat reasonably healthy foods but I have a sweet tooth and I'm a stress eater. Reducing my salt intake has changed my taste for things considerably. A lot of restaurant food just doesn't taste very good anymore. The majority of it just tastes like it's drowning in salt. That helps me not eat so much...

A coworker does paint/body work on the side. I'll send you his number if you're interested...

Pancake Pantry! :) It's cash only, so be ready for that. Honestly though.... I've never had anything in that area I thought was especially good for the money. The reasonably good local places tend to be way over-priced and way too "touristy" for me. The chain restaurants are the same as every other one with 20% higher prices. They all get their food off the same Cisco or US Foods trucks anyway. Given the option, I'd go to Cracker Barrel. YMMV.

Congrats on the progress! I'm working on that too, but I'm not trying quite as hard as you.... not sure I'd maintain my sanity on 700 calories/day. I have a birthday of significance coming up so I'm trying to lose 15-20 lbs before then. I've lost 7-8 lbs so far.

Saw this one the other day and had to laugh.... Kanye is a self-important prick. He and Kim are perfect for one another. God help that little girl.

80% lower help. Knox/Blount area
peejman replied to jaxjohn419's topic in Gunsmithing & Troubleshooting
Ouch. Welding it would be my first choice, and I know a couple local welders who could do it. It might need to be re-heat treated after welding to ensure strength. That likely would require stripping the finish. I'll have to look up the temp for the heat treatment to see if that would kill the finish. There are structural epoxies available that work well with aluminum and applying them is pretty simple. We do it all the time at work (I fix jet engine parts for a living). You'd need to blast the area to remove the finish so the epoxy will stick. Then you basically just mix the stuff, glob it in there, cure it (typically heat cure), and then machine it back to final dimensions. That said, fixing it will cost more than just replacing it. But since is a special one, you might not have a choice. Talk to Mike at Lawenforcementsalestn here... He's got the machine capability to do the work properly and he's in Oak Ridge. Getting another lower and having him re-do the engraving and the machine work might be the best option. Or if you just want to fix it, that's fine too. -
I haven't been to Tactical Advantage, but my wife went to a class there not long ago and said it was fine. Sevier Indoor Range is nice, but has a fresh air system similar to Frontier so it'll be cold. They typically have a couple space heaters running. Gunny's is a functional range but not the nicest place I've seen.

Oh to be young again and have nothing better to do than play guitar all day. But she looks quite bored. That doesn't bode well for the future.

No Ma Deuce? No M134? No MG42? An RPD, that's it? :shake:

Yep. I know that's there... the hour it takes me to get there makes that a little less appealing. That and fear of embarrassing myself.... ;)

Welcome!

Depends on what you want to know.... So 279 out of 16,000 were tested. 279/16000*100= 1.74% tested Of the 279 tested, 37 failed the drug test. 37/279*100=13.3% of those tested failed. Or 37 out of 16000 failed the test 37/16000*100=0.23% of the total people failed the drug test.

That's some darn fine shooting by everyone! I'd love to find the time (and $) to get into IDPA type shooting.

Yes, you can shoot on your property within Knox county (not Knoxville city). With only 3 acres, noise will be a significant issue.
