  1. [quote name="TrickyNicky" post="1150886" timestamp="1400704228"]Edleys BBQ. That is all. :Rock:[/quote] I love that place too. The "Tuck Special" is the best bbq sandwich I ever had. Sounds weird, I know, but soooo good! BTW...Slick Pig in M'boro has $0.99 sandwiches on Tuesdays and the best chicken wings EVER!
  2. I don't blame anyone for not wanting to be a target. However, I have several stickers on the back glass of my vehicle. Some of my stickers are zombie related, some are USMC stickers to honor my son, who's in the Marines, but most are gun related stickers. I enjoy them, they make me happy and they are indicative of who I am. I refuse to hide my personality or beliefs out of fear of ANY kind of retaliation.
  3. Here's 3 of my favorite people in the whole world. That's Lucy, my American Bulldog on the left, Barkley, my Olde English Bulldog in the middle, and Layla on the right (we aren't sure what she is, but looks like some Pit in there somewhere). We have to keep the girls in separate rooms divided by a tall childproof gate, because they don't like each other.
  4.   I looked at a few more episodes. I guess I agree with them more than I thought I did. Their views on religion probably flavored my ill opinion of them more than anything else.
  5. I've always liked Penn & Teller as entertainers, but I rarely agree with them on political commentary. Who knew they'd get the Second Amendment debate right? [media]http://youtu.be/xKMgxuHBasI[/media]
  6. [quote name="CZ9MM" post="1149494" timestamp="1400272229"][/quote] The second one from the left looks just like my adjustable Gillete. If I run it much past 3 or 5, I get awful razor burn.
  7. I wonder which one of them said "hey, y'all watch this" before the gunshot
  8.   That's a good thing when it's money, a box of ammo, or a package of AA batteries...not so good when it's a half eaten egg salad sandwich. Yep, found one on a paper plate under my couch once...dang kids!
  9.   My office is BYOG...most like guns and many carry at work...BEST BOSS EVER!!!
  10. Nice pool table, I'm jealous.   My office only has Foosball, Air Hockey, Ping Pong, and Cornhole.   I'd trade them all for a pool table.
  11.   New ain't always better, huh?    I find a lot of things were better before somebody started trying to make them "better"...like french fries.
  12.   I came to the same point about 6 months ago too. In fact, I bought the same shave stand...I love mine. I also picked up a nice soft badger brush and a stainless steel cup to lather in. I still like my vintage Gillette safety razor. Unlike cartridges, it rinses clean, blades don't cost a fortune, and most importantly...no more bumps and razor burn! I went with those Japanese Feather blades, so I can get away with a single pass (which I'm convinced is why I no longer have bumps and razor burn).   You bought really good stuff. I've been eyeing one of those long-handled Merkur razors for a while.   I can't say enough good things about this shaving soap: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0048I8GV0/ref=oh_details_o03_s00_i03?ie=UTF8&psc=1
  13.   If so, I hope the company that rented the thing out has an LLC, insurance, and/or waivers to protect the owners.
  14. not sure I'd have my kids outside playing in 50 mph winds, but I guess a gust could come up unexpected.

    Archery caddie

    [quote name="Dane" post="1148653" timestamp="1400035917"]Don't glue it. PVC hold together pretty well without glue. This will let you tweak it for a while.Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk HD[/quote] It's like you read my mind. I was going to ask that next. Thanks. The one with a single upright is the one I've decided to make. The ebay pics show it folded and collapsed, so I assumed at least the 2 connectors that would have to rotate must not be glued.

    [quote name="RED333" post="1148053" timestamp="1399858072"]Will it fit into a car trunk?[/quote] My truck doesn't have a trunk, LOL. Good point though and that second one DOES fold down flat.
  17. heck yeah!! looks medieval and bada$$
  18. I counted this morning, I have 18 holsters. Several are hybrids or pocket holsters that I made, a couple came with guns when I bought them, and one I won in a Christmas drawing on the CZ forum. The rest I bought, but most were cheap or on sale. Funny, I'm looking at a couple more I want to try too. I think I have holsteritis too.
  19. Welcome to TN and welcome to TGO. Despite the leniency of our carry laws for HCP holders, I still prefer not to be made. I don't stress about it, since I'm legal. I just like be incognito is all, so, I dress to conceal. Long-tailed, loose-fitting shirts are all I wear. This keeps all my bases covered, since I don't have to tuck my shirt in at work. On the rare occasion when I do have to tuck my shirt, I prefer to pocket carry, though.
  20. Impressive work GT! I love the spine work on this one. Don't worry, it's GOT get better in 2016.

    Archery caddie

    Thanks Dane, you were pretty close. I looked up the parts at HomeDepot.com. Assuming it's 2" pvc pipe, it looks like the 1st one will require 3 x 10' sections of PVC pipe, 2 wyes 8 tees, and 2 couplers,. That puts its cost at about $50 with a can of cement. The 2nd one requires 4 elbows, 4 tees, 1 wye, and 2 x 10' sections of the same cheap DWV pipe. Including a can of cement, it'll only run me $35 and I think I'll like it better than the 1st. Still hoping for more ideas, though. Don't worry, it's GOT get better in 2016.

    Archery caddie

    I wish we had an archery section here, I didn't know where else to post this. Don't worry, it's GOT get better in 2016.
  23. I've looked around for something to use as an arrow caddie and bow rest for my back yard. Ideally, I wanted something I didn't have to haul in and out every time I shoot. Also, I'd to be able to hang 2 bows up, for when my wife or daughter are shooting with me. I tried to order this one from Academy, because it's so cheap. It'd do the job, I think, but it looks a little unstable with such small feet/legs. It's a moot point, though, since it seems to be discontinued. Then I ran across these 2 on eBay: The seller wants $5 for the plans, but it's so simple. I'm pretty sure I can figure it out. I've never used PVC, but it can't be too difficult. I have no clue how much PVC pipe costs. Anyone work with PVC that has a clue how much it would cost in materials and/or how difficult it'd be to make? Anyone ever run across a better idea for an arrow caddie that I can hang a bow on? Don't worry, it's GOT get better in 2016.
  24. I work with a bunch of young junior developers. They all have college degrees, mind you, but out of the 3 that are the brightest and show the most promise, 2 were home schooled in HS. I know that's a small sample and anecdotal, but I've had the same experience elsewhere. The home schooled kids I know tend to be more self-reliant. Many were self-taught before getting formal training. That kind of willingness to be proactive about learning things is awesome, if you ask me. Why any employer wouldn't want an employee that grew up learning to feed himself intellectually is beyond me. Don't worry, it's GOT get better in 2016.

    Llama or keltec

    Kel-Tec holds it own among the subcompact semi autos in their price range better than Llama. In an apples to apples comparison that is weighted toward price, you can't do much better unless you buy a used gun. If you follow the "fluff and buff" directions on KTOG.com, you should be fine. I shot on box of ammo through my Kel-Tec with few issues, but still used the marks left inside and the KTOG instruction to make a pretty darn smooth little gun. I've carried it every day for about 6 years as either a backup or a primary.
