I thought this was the sticker:

D3vo and I tried to stop by on a lunch break, but they were closed for their lunch break.

  The only times I have seen it are for telecommuters. The documents I saw in that case were related to home inspections for verifying that the employee kept an adequate work space for their home office (defined as X sq. feet) and that it met OSHA standards (desk isn't blanced on a couple of 2x4's over a vat of acid, I guess).

No, the new TN state law (I think it is labeled 39-17-1313) has no impact on this at all. The new law means it's not a criminal offense for an HCP holder to leave a legal firearm in their personal vehicle parked on property that is posted in accordance with 39-17-1359. It's basically a limited over-ride of the posting rules that extends to parking lots and personal vehicles. This only affects the criminality of having it in your car in a properly posted parking lot. It does not have any affect on employment or employee handbooks. Unless your employer's lot was posted, this law does nothing for you. Even it is posted, this law only keeps you from getting a misdemeanor charge. You'd still get fired.   That clause about state/local law is in the handbook in case the company chooses to operate a location in a state that expressly forbids employers from restricting legal firearms and/or from making it a terminable offense. The clause keeps the rest of that part of the handbook from becoming nulll and void.   "All company premises" does include the parking lot.

Haven't read the book, but plan to now that I know it's a whole lot more than the movie.   Fast Z's are scarier, but I agree that it wasn't as edgy as I had hoped. I was never in fear for the main characters, especially since there's  only one. It was action packed, and I can overlook the tactical errors as they weren't terrible, and Gerry's not a Billy-Bad-Ass operator, just an experienced field investigator. But he did leave his rifle behind when fleeing the apartment....oops.   I liked the movie for what it was, an action summer movie.   **SPOILER ALERT***   What I couldn't follow was how Israel built the wall in such a hurry. They talk about how Israel was the first to take action after intercepting communications in India, so I get thet they'd be more prepared than anyone else, but they built an 80+ foot concrete wall around the country, complete with wire-mesh enclosed people tunnels and immigration/refugee stations in a few weeks?   They never explained why some corner of Nova Scotia (or New Brunswick?) was a safe place to put refugees. I would have thought an island would have been better. Maybe it was an island off the coast of NB or NS. I would think a warmer island off the coast of the US would have been a better choice. Or even better, let's all go to Fiji.   If they're doing a sequel, it could be cool to see the "on the ground" battles, but the war is over. The humans are now immunized to where the Zs won't attack them. The Zs are being herded into centralized areas and burned/bombed. It's just a matter of mopping up.   Since when did the US fly an Antonov AN-12? It's a super special one because they launched it from an aircraft carrier, then it flew all the way to Korea without refueling, then it gets refuled on the ground in about 30 seconds with enough fuel to fly all the way to Israel. Screw the Boeing Dreamliner....this thing is the solution for airline fuel efficiency and range. Who knew the Russians solved the problem in 1957? They could afford Brad Pitt, but couldn't lease a Herc?

Is this guy really a U.S. Senator? It's no wonder that the rest of the nation and much of the world thinks the south is filled with ignorant hillbillies. Actually, you can become French or Japanese since those nations have a naturalization process just as any organized nation does. I think I know what he means, but it doesn't make what he wrote any less incorrect.

Well crap....now you've got me considering a short road trip to Memphis this weekend to go up for a ride....

I feel ya, KahrMan. Sears is the donut paradise when we get snow!

Warner park's a great idea. Thanks. The Trace might be good too. Still need to get more basics in the parking lots first. Maybe in a few weeks I'll get him out on one of those 2 roads.

Dang it hipower...Call me jealous.   daddyo, it was a B-17. Like hipower said, it was the Liberty Belle, which was painted up as the Memphis Belle and used in the movie by the same name. http://www.libertyfoundation.org/index.html

Agreed.   Crazy prices usually come from a seller who bought at an LGS that isn't competitive and he/she thinks that's the going price. Those items will usually just sit. When selling on the forums, the base "new" price is generally what the lowest Internet price is plus shipping and TICS. Discount from there for condition and for being "used". That is of course out the window for items that are not available as new any longer and have collectible value.   That said, if someone wants to list their standard Gen3 G19 with holster wear and 10K rounds through it for $1,200....they can.

So I've been a "big brother" with Big Brothers Big Sisters of Middle TN for a while now and love it. My "little brother" just got his lerner's permit and we need to get some wheel time in. I'm looking for a large parking lot in the west/north Nashville area that's likely to be empty on the weekends. I found one near Opryland, and of course there's Bellevue Center. I was wondering if anyone knows of any others in the west or north side, especially near Briley Pky and either Centennial or Ashland City Hwy.

Welcome to TGO, and thanks for asking before crapping on anyone's for sale thread and earning yourself a visit from the ban hammer.

What Spots said. You're right about one of the reasons some sellers list high. If I ask a fair price for my item, I'll get offers for less. If I ask a higher price, I'll get offers of a fair price. Or so the logic goes. Sometimes that's true, sometimes not. Other times a price may be high because the seller overpaid and doesn't realize they're high vs. the actual market value. They'll figure it out when all they get are low-ball offers if any at all, but it's not our job to call them out in public over it.   The rules are here at the first sticky in the first forum under the Trading Post section. Rule#7 addresses your question. http://www.tngunowners.com/forums/topic/44438-trading-post-rules-and-policies/

That sounds like something out of a Rober Frost poem....     My "free" box at BofA is small. About 2 x 5 x however deep those things go. I can keep CDs/DVDs in there, but they don't lay flat in a jewel case, sort of tilted against one side. A G26-sized pistola would probably fit OK. An LCP would fit.

+1 for Shiloh.   For a driving trip, maybe route 52 http://www.tn52.com/

Adams, TN for the Bell Witch cave around Halloween. Sure it's a bit cheesy, but it's fun.   I still need to get to Fall Creek Falls S.P. It's reportedly excellent.

Mazda doesn't list that on their website. http://www.mazdausa.com/MusaWeb/displayPage.action?pageParameter=ownersWarranty   When I have seen lifetime warranties on other things besides cars and that part of the warranty isn't usually transferrable even if other sectioons are. If Mazda, or any other maker, sets it up like that then it could be a good differentiating sales tactic. The average buyer isn't likely to keep the car more than 3-7 years before they get tired of it or other parts not covered by the "lifetime" begin to break down like suspension or electronics and the owner decides to get something else. Either way the lifetime on the powertrain wouldn't have to be honored more than 3-7 years on most vehicles they sell.

Paraphrasing someone on TGO when being questioned about carrying a gun...   "You mean you don't? I hope your luck holds out."   sorry, but I can't recall who said it and what the exact line was. I just remember the story being in a convenience store while getting a cup of coffee.

A had assumed post-operative transvestite poultry. That's why I clicked the link. Imagine my disappointment.

If it goes sideways, just about anyone east of the Mississippi without a well concealed, stocked, and defensible position (an accesible large boat on the coast would count) is pretty much screwed.

Last seen headed east bound and down from Texarkana.

  Go back on June 25th, 2016 which is the next time the 25th falls on a Saturday. They'll have plenty.

Someone school me on this. Why is a revolver better against an aggressive* snake than a semi-auto? Do semi's not like rat/snake shot rounds?     *Yes sir, it was being aggressive. I was in fear of my own personal safety and had to put the poor thing down. It broke my heart to do it.

That's still not as bad as when Brown-Forman in Louisville dumped a load of tequila down the drain in 2003. A holding tank was marked as 'Empty" when it was actually full. A worker hooked up a tanker truck and started pumping tequila into the holding tank then left to take a break while waiting for the truck to be emptied. Oops.....1,800 gallons were gone before anyone noticed and shut off the pump.
