Glad it wasn't malicious. What kind of air gun was it? I wouldn't expect the typical Daisy model to have enough oomph to break windows after passing through a can or box.

20lb grill tanks are, but can be tested and recertified. Bigger residential tanks have different requirements.

I wouldn't sweat the lack of experience. If you show up more than 3 days in a row, you'll be ahead of a bunch of people. Denso is always hiring here, $14/hr, no experience necessary.

My parents in Chattanooga have a buried tank and get it refilled once or twice a year. They use it for supplemental heat (dual fuel heat pump), hot water, cooktop, and grill. Always get it filled in the summer when prices are low. Only in the winter when necessary, which isn't often. Prices are supply/demand and tend to shoot up in times of crisis, just like gasoline. Not an issue if you're reasonably prepared. While the Memphis area doesn't usually get real cold, ice storms will cripple the infrastructure for days at a time.

That's just it, they're not citizens, they're subjects. We pointed out the difference a couple hundred years ago.

Play stupid games, win stupid prizes. That said, call the cops as soon as the guy starts the harassment.

Same here. I rarely bought anything gun related from them, but I did buy shoes, camping stuff, canoe stuff, golf stuff, bicycle stuff, baseball stuff, etc.. Not anymore. Now I drive more than twice as far to Academy. Their prices are generally better anyway.

Shoulder holster? I'm not a big fan of them generally due to draw/holster muzzle direction issues, but it seems the best option since you can't wear a belt. Just practice a lot and slowly to make sure you're not gonna shoot yourself in the chest.

One of my friend's wife said one of her boyfriends in high school couldn't figure out which was the appropriate hole either.

Wedding cake is a miracle cure for many, many things.

Yep. Or a grown-up air rifle.

Fair enough. I know a couple mechanics here, but none close to you. Hope they get it fixed.

Check for Vacuum leaks. Likely source is the intake boots between the carbs and cylinder. Could also be cracked covers on the sides of the carbs. Could also be abnormally high idle speed because of other issues. Does it start cold and idle with no choke?

A true comedic genius. Back when you didn't have to be vulgar to be funny

I suppose it's possible that he notified the carrier and the employee he dealt was unaware of the policy or chose to ignore it, and falsified the documentation and shipped it anyway. In that case, its possible he might not be found at fault while the employee would be terminated and possibly criminally charged. That's the only loophole I can think of.

My cousins were unofficial missionaries in Bishkek Kyrgyzstan for 6-8 years about a decade ago. That's even further from Pakistan than where these 2 went. Even in the relative safety of a big city and speaking Russian reasonably fluently, there were occasional issues. There were places they could go, and places they knew to stay away from. They were raising a family and the rise of the Islamic state was one of the reasons they left.

Don't pity the dead, their suffering is over. Pity those left behind. I'd presume most people who've lived any length of adult life have known others who died before their time. I lost 2 high school friends because they were young, arrogant, and made poor decisions. I was sad when they died, but I didn't pity them. I pity their families who have holes their lives. I pity the friends who witnessed their demise and have to live with those memories.

I don't have vinyl, but I still buy CD's. I probably have several hundred by now. The only reason I download music is when a CD isn't available. The CD wallet that lives in my car still holds way more music than my iPod.

We used to mix TSP and Clorox (don't recall the ratio) and scrub with a brush. Awesome leg and shoulder workout. I'll never have another house with white trim. Spraying soffets with the pressure washer will get water in the attic. Do it on a hot day so it'll dry out fairly quickly.

A former coworker was a roadie for Aerosmith, Nugent, and the Stones in the 70's. He's got some interesting stories.

That sign just makes the sheeple feel better, it means nothing legally. And yes, the presence of drugs has no bearing. Hospitals, drug stores, doctors offices, etc. all have to be legally posted.

Zeppelin, Sabbath, Rainbow, the various incarnations of Clapton, Bo Diddley, BB King, Pink Floyd, Queen, The Allman Brothers, Ramones, Priest, ....

It serves the purpose and cost 1/4 of what you initially looked at. While you really like the expensive one (which is really cool) you didn't buy it.

A bad day at the office for sure.

Hey @Erik88 ... want to know how consumer driven medical care will drive costs down? Here's a perfect example. And I don't mean that as a barb in any way, it's just a great illustration. Sorry for the thread-jack. Please resume your regularly scheduled tool box talk.
