  1. I think the bubble has burst, but it'll get patched and re-inflated shockingly quickly as the 2016 election looms closer. 
  2. I've never understood stuff like that. If it's so hot that you can't taste anything, what's the point?
  3. Welcome. 30-30's come and go on here from time to time. I'd like to have one too.
  4.     If somebody put anchovies on my pizza, I'd swear too...       I had to travel to S. Korea on business several years ago.  My first real meal, other than the granola bars I brought, consisted of Domino's pizza with steak fries, yellow peppers, and mustard as toppings.  It was as odd as it sounds... and probably the best meal I had the whole week I was there.  :-\
  5. http://www.pssurvival.com/   http://www.stevespages.com/page7c.htm
  6. Thin crust, italian sausage, mushrooms, and jalapeños.
  7. Heh. And probably not a good idea to weld it.
  8. Stuff like that just runs all over me. Was the builder cheap, lazy, or stupid? If they cheaped out on that, what else did they do?
  9. I believe you're supposed to report "nuisance" wildlife to TWRA, but my guess is they'll tell you to trap and/or shoot it.
  10. I'd play a lot if I had the time and money. We have a small league at work that I use as my excuse and motivation to keep playing. It's 9 holes every other week. They didn't have the league one year and I think I played twice that year. That was sad. I also prefer to walk when it's reasonable to do so.
  11. Tactical Advantage (formerly known as Coal Creek Armory) has a women's only HCP class. They also offer a couple other women's classes that I've been thinking of sending my wife to.
  12. Dryer ducts that run through floors or in crawl spaces should be rigid metal pipe for exactly the above reason. The metal flex hose stuff is ok for very short runs where normal joints won't work and the nylon flex stuff should be avoided completely.
  13. So that would seem to indicate the prosecutor either didn't have time to prepare or didn't exactly finish at the top of his class.  No evidence of abuse prior to the boy turning 18 and I suppose the son chose not to pursue it.  I guess I'll showcase my ignorance of the system and ask how did that ever make to a court room?
  14.   Yes, Ti is different than aluminum or steel.  It's very tough but also can be gummy like copper.  It also depends highly on what alloy of Ti he's using and it's heat treatment.  It's fine to cut it dry (just like Al or steel), he's going slowly, taking short and light cuts so the tool doesn't heat up, and using carbide tools.  He's also using an open mill without coolant capability.  He'd have to put some sort of berm around the mill and would have a heck of a mess to clean up if he was using coolant.    I'd guess that hunk of Ti cost at least $1000.  He's got another few hundred in the cutting tools, not to mention the cost of the mill and the time to do the work. 
  15. Welcome!
  16.     Forgive my cynicism... can you provide any further detail regarding this case?  The idea that the judge "had no choice" to drop the charges" tells me there was some sort of snafu or loophole that required him to do that.  Stuff like that is exactly why I call it a legal system rather than a justice system.  But it's highly likely my flying leap to that conclusion is completely wrong. 
  17. I can't find anything that states transporting class 2 wildlife is a felony.  Everything related to this says it's a Class C misdemeanor.  It does say that they can basically confiscate darn near everything used in the process (your truck or boat and everything in it, etc.)            
  18. Welcome!
  19. Agreed. While our system is better than many others, it succeeds in some areas and fails miserably in others. My general opinion is summed up pretty succinctly by Mr James Hetfield....
  20. Yep. Vent hose and overtemp sensor. If you use fabric softener in the dryer, over time it will gunk up the sensors. And speaking of dryer vent hoses.... Please clean them out periodically. Lots of houses burn to the ground from dryer vent hoses catching fire.
  21. Most appliances are pretty easy to fix or determine if they're beyond repair.  What's broken?
  22. My "flinch" is a low left hit.  I found it was related to squeezing too tight with my support hand because I don't do it when I shoot one handed. 
  23. :wave:     I got serious about playing while in high school as well.  I had no life so I had lots of time to practice and got pretty good at it.  I've played most of the courses in the Chattanooga area as that's where I grew up.  Did the junior tournament circuit for a couple years, but I play golf because its fun.  Getting super competitive about it kinda sucks the fun out of it for me.    I'm not much of a gear hound, most of my clubs are knock-offs and they work fine for me.  The 4 wood I use is the first metal wood I ever got (yes, I'm old enough to have used real wooden woods) and I still hit it well.  Even if I had the money, I wouldn't spend the big $$ on all the new stuff.  Like musical instruments, it ain't the stick it's the person holding it.  I will admit to splurging on a Taylor Made driver.  I wanted to join the 20th century and upgrade the 25 year old one I had.  I paid $50 for it used.  :)
  24. The more I look at that pattern, the more I see this. ... and that's a good thing. :)
  25.     15 cuft minimum.  That's what I've got and it'll be packed with what you've listed.   My parents have a 25 cuft and with just two of them, it doesn't stay full anymore.  With 4 of us, ours stays full.  Ours is an odd brand name produced by Maytag many years ago.  My parent's is also a Maytag and it's more than 40 years old and still works fine.  That said, they don't make them like they used to, which is good and bad.  Consumer Reports seems to like Frigidaire, Whirlpool, and Kenmore (made by Frigidaire) freezers.              I'll agree and disagree.  Depends on how much floor space you have and where you're going to put it.  If floor space is at a premium and you can put the freezer in a basement or air conditioned space, then I agree that an upright is the best choice simply because it's easier to access.  If it'll be in an unconditioned space (like mine, in the garage), then a chest freezer is probably better because it's more efficient.    Regarding organization in a chest freezer, most newer ones come with absurdly over-priced baskets.  My old one didn't have anything so I got some milk crates and plastic totes to help keep things separated and more accessible.    Note that most freezers put off a lot of heat... more than a typical fridge. Something to think about.
