I do all of my "penny-in-a-bottle" tricks with a steam roller.

Only in the urban services district. If your property is in the rural services district, firing a firearm is not banned during daylight hours. All other public safety caveats apply.

I saw the story. Rock Center is supposed to be an in-depth news show, not snippets like the evening news. They had plenty of time to describe and demonstrate what the detractors claim to be the actual problem with Remington's trigger group, but they didn't. If Tom Butters is so convinced that the trigger group is faulty, why didn't he demonstrate a failure? That was the most disappointing part. Yes, each case of injury or death violated at least 2 of the 10 commandments. They even commented on that. But they also made the point to say that it shows even experienced sportsmen can make a mistake. I thought they did a decent job at the end in the studio of clarifying that none of the people they featured wanted more government regulation of the industry, and that they all admitted they had some responsibility in the accidents. They also showed that it's not a widespread problem by talking with the guy that runs the clay target range, and by citing how many millions of guns Remington has produced with this part group and just how few accidents there are that claim to be related to the problem. In the end though, lack of a demonstration of the reported flaw made it look more like a drive-by piece against Remington. I can guarantee it will hurt their sales. After the story my wife asked if we have any of those. Nope, and because of this, I won't. Partly because I'd never really trust it, but mostly because my wife is now going to ask about every long gun that comes in the door "Is that one of those that was on Rock Center?" I just don't want to have to deal with that.

Someone mentioned George "Goober" Lindsey earlier. We go to the same barber shop, so I'll see him a couple of times a year as our paths cross. Come to think of it, I haven't seen him for about a year now. I hope he's doing well. Some of the barbers at the shop have changed, so maybe he's going some place else now.

I met Sonny Shroyer (Enos from Dukes of Hazard) when I was bout 4. I have a picture from that. Then I met him again a few years ago, so now I have pictures of me taken with him about 30 years apart. He has aged, but not 30 years. He's like Dick Clark....keeps looking younger. I met pretty much the entire cast of Happy Days almost 30 years ago. We were stationed at Kadena AFB on Okinawa and they came over for a USO sponsored celebrity softball game. That was pretty cool. Not TV, but I got to have dinner with World Series MVP Bobby Richardson of the '55-'66 Yankees. He also came over to Kadena, but this was for a chapel thing. He came over to share his personal testimony with the troops. He's a popular Christian speaker and big in the Fellowship of Christian Athletes. My dad was a chaplain, so he managed to get himself assigned to Mr. Richardson while he was visiting. Dinner was just him, my dad, brother, and me at the Officers' Club on base. I have a ball and glove signed by him and personalized to me. I was only 5 or 6 at the time of both Bobby Richardson and the Happy Days cast. I wish I could have had those experiences later when I could really understand them more and appreciate them.

Usually a Kahr PM9. Sometimes an LCP and sometimes an XDsc .40.

You just missed a big one at Shiloh. A friend of mine was in that one. He's normally a grey, but had to don the blue for this one.

You don't bring an axe to a gun fight, no matter how badass it makes you look on a motor scooter.

Personally, I couldn't hit any clays with a Mossy HD 18.5" shotty that I tried once. That could have been the choke more than the length though. I don't know what it was choked with. My advice, try both guns. You'll settle in to one over the other pretty quickly, or maybe you'll like one for skeet and one for trap.

It makes it crystal clear that it can't be deducted on Schedule A (presumably of Form 1040). That doesn't mean there's not some other form in the complex IRS library where you could deduct it.

Since you're in Green Hills, you'd be violating both state law (killing the snake) and Metro ordinance of discharging a firearm inside an Urban Services district. I vote for "let it live". Ask her if she'd rather have the snake out by the rock wall, or mice scurrying up inside the walls and in the attic.

This. I never could figure out why that was. Still can't.

Bear spray for four-legged

The video is great

well played.

Apparently the fish and game people think it's a load of crap too.... http://sacramento.cbslocal.com/2012/03/30/mans-claim-of-bear-rescue-could-be-hoax/

I was trying to figure out how an STD was involved with a broken leg. I was wondering if that adult swing that was in the classifieds about a year ago was involved.

Nah,some kids broke the window, drove the van around, then parked it opposite of how they found it. Or aliens.

OK...so what are you waiting for? Get that TGO Membership and show us what you've got to sell in the Classifieds!

I was thinking the same, but would it be possible if he had been in the area a lot and the bear didn;t consider him a threat due to familiarity? I'm not a bear psychologist and I didn't stay at a Holiday Inn Express last night.

Now all you have to do as find one. I think they're on aisle 18 between the hen's teeth and the snipe.
