Father punches man trying to meet his 12 yr old daughter
peejman replied to Caster's topic in 2A Legislation and Politics
A 12 yr old with a public facebook page? Um, no. It's a good thing I don't have a daughter too. -
Spray-on bedliner. Seriously.

Fall/winter is hiking season for me. It rains too much in the spring, and its too hot/too many bugs in the summer.

Congrats to you! I lost about 20 lbs with Atkins several years ago, but gained it all back. I just couldn't stick to the diet, I like bread too much. I've since lost about 15 lbs by simply eating less. I basically eat what I want, I just try not to eat a lot of it. Portion control is my key.

The problem with the silo is there's no escape. Once you're in there, you're stuck. -
Just for reference, the tempurpedic mattresses are made in Duffield, VA. It's about 25 miles north of Kingsport.

I've worn a Beltman belt daily for about 7 years. It's still in excellent shape.

Re: JetBoil... this. I've got two old Coleman stoves from the '70's, I think. My parents got them when they used to camp before they had me. One is a single burner that google suggests is a 508. The other is a big 3 burner model. Both still work fine and have been known to hold pressure for more than 10 years. Lanterns too...

I had an inguinal hernia (the kind in your groin) repaired in August 2010, on friday the 13th. A number of guys I work with had hernias repaired around the same time... it was really kinda weird there were so many at the same time. The procedure itself really isn't a big deal. Outpatient surgery, took about half a day. The worst pre-surgery part was the antacid stuff they make you drink. It tastes horrible and you can't wash it down with anything. Yuck. Mine was repaired with the mesh patch, which according to the doctor is basically gore-tex. My incision is about 3" long, just below my waist. The hernia itself was much lower down, but the doc said they do the incision up high because it heals much better. I was very, very stiff for the first couple days. It's very hard to sit on the pot and wipe your arse when your left hip joint doesn't work. My (at the time) 2 yr old didn't understand why Daddy couldn't play or pick him up, and that jumping on Daddy wasn't such a good idea. DO NOT cough or laugh. It really, really hurts. They gave me hydro's for the pain and I didn't like them. They made me loopy and itchy. I only took them for 2-3 days. I had very little bruising, some other guys looked like they'd been hit with a baseball bat. I was moving around fine within a few days. My doc wasn't real strict with the "no lifting" stuff. He basically said, "if it hurts, don't do that. If you tear it again, I have to fix it again, so choose wisely." Some guys played basketball a couple days later. The worst post-surgery part was the staples, they got real tender after about a week. He removed about half of them after the first week, then the other half after the 2nd week. They were replaced each time with the stickiest tape I've ever seen. Removing the tape wasn't real fun either. I had phantom pains around the incision for several months afterward. Sometimes when I'd move in a odd way, sometimes when sitting still. Nothing severe, just enough to get your attention. Otherwise, it healed up fine. My surgeon always had students around observing during pre and post-op visits and one during the procedure. During my 2nd post-op visit, the doc walked in with a girl who was 20 at the most (and kinda cute ). It was only after we chatted for a minute he told her why I was there. She was really embarrassed when I started undoing my pants and I tried real hard not to laugh.

Doh! I bet that didn't tickle a bit! Hope it heals up quickly.

Great pics of all that stuff. I hope he teaches you how to use all that stuff, it's quickly becoming a lost art. Building the shed/cabin sounds fun to me. Might be a good idea to wait until it's a tad cooler.

Doctors should have right to ask you about your guns
peejman replied to MikePapa1's topic in 2A Legislation and Politics
I turn the tables on them.... My kids' pediatrician asked if we had guns in the house.... "Of course I do, don't you?" On a later visit, I noticed that one of the nurses in the office wears her ID on a Glock lanyard. -
Most receiver hitches are pretty easy to install. I've done a few. The hardest part is holding the hitch up to get the bolts started, that either takes 2 people or some redneck ingenuity to manage by yourself. Lots of places to buy them online. Given that it's an F150, an auto parts place (or even walmart) may have one in stock. Otherwise, this is the cheapest place I've found online... http://shop.autoanything.com/towing/73A3874A0A0.aspx

I clean my Mosin every time, but only because the ammo is corrosive. The other stuff (rifles and pistols)... I wipe the crud off the muzzle and bolt face/breech/chamber area. Then I wipe all the the finger prints off and that's it. I only clean the bore when it looks cruddy and/or accuracy is affected. That can be lots and lots of rounds down range. I'm a firm believer that more guns get broken and/or prematurely worn out due to obsessive cleaning than by obsessive shooting.

There are such things as motor gliders too. Some have combustion engines, some have electric motors.

Someone around has an EZ. I'm a few miles from TYS so planes fly over my house all the time. I've seen the EZ a bunch of times. It does look funny if you've never seen one before. There are also a handful of ultralights with canards. The engines are those can have a chainsaw-ish sound.
