AvGas is short for Aviation Gasoline. You can get it at airports. Not every airport will sell it to people with gas cans, not an airplane. One of the best fuel stabilizers out there is PRI-G. I get ethanol-free gasoline and treat it with PRI-G. Stored in steel NATO Jerry cans, I've used it up to 3 years later and it runs fine in my vehicles and my small engines.

Their fried pies were better than that hippie baked garbage they sling these days.

^^^ This.

Yep. Even if it's catch & release, those fish came from somewhere and there's a good chance they came from a TWRA hatchery, not natural population growth within our lakes and rivers.

Nope. Men wouldn't double-back like that. At the end of the first aisle, we loop around the back and up the second aisle.

Obviously looking for something like these. Just wondering if they're a total waste of money or not. https://www.opticsplanet.com/barska-night-vision-nvx700-monoculars.html https://www.opticsplanet.com/x-vision-2-0-pro-digital-night-vision-binoculars.html

Hey TGOers. My mom wants to get my dad some NV of some sort. Handheld monocular or binos would be fine, doesn't have to be actual goggles. They just want to watch deer in the yard at night. She said $200-300 range. Is it even possible to find something that actually works well enough to watch deer in that price range? Distance would probably be under 50 yards. They come up pretty close to the house. They can hear them moving in the tall grass at night but can't see them. Longer distances would be better, of course. They have a large empty field behind the house with max distance being 200-300 yards away, but he'd need magnification to watch deer at that distance.

At the old Harding Mall in Nashville there was a Jennie Craig or Weight Watchers location right between a Blimpie's Subs and a Baskin-Robbins. I have no idea who moved in first....

Why would they know who shot him? They wouldn't even know who he is!

Paper ticket stubs from concerts and sports to show you were there.

I thought they also Photoshopped Wally with an amputated arm, then realized it's just his hand in his pocket

Goodbye, Combat Carl He was very funny in some guest appearances on Arrested Development.

We had one like this circa 1979 or so. You'd roll the wheel on the left to select a row, then push a button to select that column.

Saw one of these this summer at Bryce Canyon Nat'l Park. First time I've seen one in at least 10 years.

RE: the OP's question . . . Being on the phone and someone else picking up another phone in the house and listening in. Being chained to a cord while on the phone. Not knowing who was calling when the phone rang. Riding in the back window ledge of a car and waving at the cops. Sleeping in the rear floorboard with the warm transmission tunnel as a pillow. Having to call MOVIE PHONE or get a newspaper to know what the theater was showing. A bookshelf full of Encyclopedias . . . and learning about the important stuff in the "S" book 1940s and 50s cars and trucks had them. I know the Chevy 3100 Advanced Design trucks had them.

Mr. Fancy Pants with your dimmer switch. What about the starter plunger on the floor.

and car door armrests

Ohhh! I just remembered I have another one with a Colt frame and an RR slide. That frame was bubba-tized but the slide is in great shape. Time to swaparoo the slides and get a matching RR and a full Bubba that I can use and abuse w/o fear of diminishing any value. Perfect!

For $200, that's almost like the Mosins we could find at shops & shows for $80 each. Get a whole crate and plan to arm up your whole block if the time comes.

I didn't forget....just been busy. Mine's been waiting on me since last Tuesday but just managed to get it home today. Service Grade 1945 Remington Rand frame with a government replacement slide from Numax Electronics. Apparently those are well hardened slides, so I plan to shoot the snot out of it. Markings indicate rearsenaled at Fort Lewis - Mount Rainier Ordinance Depot. I'll send off a FOIA request and see what the Army can tell me about it. I haven't disassembled it yet so I don't know what markings I may find on the barrel or other bits. Anyway . . . here's the porn you all want.

Fine by me, as long as the enforcing agency doesn't get a taste.

I like it except this. I HATE policing for profit. It goes against everything good and decent about our law enforcement agencies. It sounds like an incentive to do the job better, but in the end it feeds corruption and budget shenanigans. Funds collected should go just about ANYWHERE except law enforcement. I'd rather they go to PBS & NPR than law enforcement.

About the only real "plan" I have is how to get home from work, the most likely scenario for me to get caught away from home should something go bad fast. I have to get across the Cumberland River and there are only so many crossing points, so knowing what those are is important to me.

The question is always how much self-reliance are you willing to buy and how much hassle are you willing to put up with? Or said another way . . . how nutty do you want to look to the normies? As for One Second After, the sequel was OK. The 3rd one was "meh" at best, IMO. None of them are outstanding examples of literature, but they provide a plausible, if not likely, sequence of events following a societal collapse. Apparently there's now a 4th one (Five Years After). I'll probably read it just because. They were all better than his book Pillar To The Sky. Now THAT's a slog to get through.
